Chapter One: The Past Revealed
-x-x-x-
Most stories told, are started somewhere in the middle, leaving people to wonder about what happened before the told story, and that leaves many disappointed with the lack of knowledge to follow. This is a tale that went untold, and perhaps for a good reason, but a tale most be told at some point, or else...it will be lost in time.
This story takes place, 1966, September first...

"We should be arriving shortly, Caesus." Glancing outside, it was raining on this glorious day, and she couldn't be happier; this girl with wide baby blue eyes and raven black hair that fell to her midriff in soft, silky waves, much like a black river. She was an Asian beauty...or, half Asian beauty...her mother had been from Japanese, and her father British, but when it came to names, since her father had been killed in an accident before her birth, her mother had decided to keep her last name the same as hers, while giving her a Japanese first name. Kagome Higurashi, eleven years old and ready...ready for her first year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. She had received her acceptance letter not too many months back, and was only too excited to be getting out of her house. Don't get her wrong, she loved her mother, but...she hated Japan. She'd spent the better half of her years learning English and reading up on Mythologies from all over the world, as well as her mothers' old school books. She couldn't practice magic, but she could read all she wanted.

"Hey!"
"Hm...?" Kagome looked towards the door of the compartment that she sat in, a girl with black and blonde hair stood looking down at her, "Yes?"
"Allow me to introduce myself, I am Narcissa Black,"
"Kagome Higurashi," Kagome introduced herself.
"Nice, now leave, me and my friends need a place to sit."
"No thanks," She placed her hand on the head of the long haired black kitten of nine months, and rubbed its ears gently.
"I wasn't asking, commoner,"
"...Whether or not you were asking doesn't matter, I'm still not complying."
"..." Narcissa glared, "You bloody nut, do you want me to hex you into next year!"
"I'm aware that time travel is possible, but are you sure you have the skill for such complex wand-waving and spell-casting?"
It was silent for a moment before a soft chuckle drew her attention to the two behind Narcissa. It was a guy with shoulder length platinum blonde hair and another girl, with black hair in wild ringlets. The girl seemed to be more curious about whatever was down the hall that she wasn't really paying attention to them, she also looked older. "Why not let us join you then?"
"Will I be met with the constant babbling of your female friend or childish name-calling consisting of 'commoner' or 'nut' I believe it was she called me? If so, I will have to decline your suggestion as nothing short of lunacy on your part."
Sitting down across from her, with Narcissa, with Bellatrix sitting right beside Kagome, "My name is Lucius Malfoy," he introduced politely. "You are a pureblood?"
"...maybe..."
"What do you mean 'maybe'? You either are, or you are not." Narcissa snapped.
"Alright...I'm not." Kagome smiled. "So...who's your quiet friend?"
"Bellatrix Black."
"Ah...the older sister of the bothersome one..."
Narcissa flushed brightly, "Shut it!"
"Hehe, calm yourself Cissy, it's obvious she's trying to get a rise out of you."
Kagome smiled as she looked out the window, the sight of the school coming into view was enough to make her stand and ready her stuff to leave, "Not trying," She commented, "Your little sister is clearly someone who is easily wound up, I hope you all have a lovely day," She bowed politely at the door and left the room, her cat following closely behind her.

The meeting had come about on the train ride to Hogwarts, but that would not be the end of it. There was much more to the story then a few exchanges between Kagome and the richly dressed group of three who had commandeered her compartment. Although, it was no big loss to Kagome...she would realize later...that this meeting was nothing short of Destiny.
-x-x-x-
"I first wish to welcome back the second through seventh years students, I hope everyone enjoys the new school year, and as for our first years, let me extend a welcome from all of Hogwarts staff." Headmaster Dumbledore smiled, "Let's commence with the sorting ceremony!"
Minerva McGonagall, the transfiguration teacher, held a scroll out in front of her, "When I call your name, you will come up here and sit down to be sorted."
Kagome listened as the woman spoke; she had already seen the magic in the hat which had sang a song for the new students upon their arrival.
"In alphabetical order, I will call your names, Narcissa Black,"
"..." Kagome watched the girl beside her walk up to the stool and sit. The old hat was placed upon her head, and soft murmurs could barely be heard, but Kagome caught bits and pieces.
"...tal...ted...ch...ms..." a pause met her ears before mutterings once more sounded from the hat on Narcissa's head, "...c...ning...a...d...I...ow...bou...SLYTHERIN~!"
Kagome watched Narcissa stand and vacate the steps, making her way to the seats on the far left of the great hall. In order starting at the far left, the tables went as such: Slytherin, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff and then Gryffindor, with the teachers sitting at the High Table on a risen platform at the front of the Great Hall.
The names were called, and students were placed, and when finally Kagome heard her name, she walked up the steps of the risen platform and sat on the stood beside McGonagall.
"Interesting, a bookworm, with a thrill seeking love for adventure, and troublemaking...as well as a love for animals...you are exceptionally skilled in Potions, in extension, you love to cook...you would do well in Gryffindor, but I feel that you are meant for Slytherin...I see...then I will place you...in SLYTHERIN."
Kagome stood as the hat was removed from her head and sat down at the Slytherin table beside Narcissa. The table was loudly clapping for another new student, and Kagome couldn't help but flush slightly at the attention she was suddenly receiving. The names continued to be called, and finally, the feast was revealed with a clap of hands from the headmaster.
"How did you manage to become a Slytherin?"
Kagome paused in mid bite, choosing to place the fork back down on her plate instead of eating the morsel which lay inert on the fork. "I would assume it has something to do with my character. There are only four houses, I had a twenty-five percent chance of getting into each of them, and apparently, the sorting hat thought that this one was the most appropriate for me, any other questions, or may I get back to my food?"
"..." Narcissa sneered, but said nothing in return.

Nightfall was quick to descend upon the students and teachers of Hogwarts, all anticipated the dawn of the next day, but were any truly prepared for what was to come? Finding out would be the entertainment and joy of a few certain Slytherin's. But at what cost...
-x-x-x-
The next morning had Kagome running out of the dungeon where she and the other Slytherin's slept, but right now she was more curious about why no one had woken her up. She had missed breakfast, and was going to miss her first History of Magic class if she didn't speed it up a notch. She passed by a ghost and paused to look, it was small, and mischievous looking.
"Ickly icky first year is running an itty bitty bit late...yes, yes, yes..."
"Yes, yes, yes..." Kagome smiled sheepishly, a blush tinting her cheeks just barely, "Do you know a shortcut to the History of Magic class?"
"Peeves might know, yes...Peeves might not, no..."
"You must be a new ghost, not knowing your way around the Castle...I bet you don't know any shortcuts to the History of Magic class anyways..." She continued on her when Peeves flew through her irritably and held his translucent arms out wide.
"Peeves knows! Yes, yes, yes...knows he does!"
"If you did, you could prove it,"
"Ickly student follow, yes!" He took off and Kagome couldn't help but grin to herself as she took off running after the spirit. She rounded a corner and found him waiting at a dead end. "Stupid icky student need push stone and go down stairs to find door to History of Magic."
Kagome smiled, "Thank you so much, Peeves; I'd kiss you if I knew I wouldn't go through you!"
Peeves fidgeted slightly and nervously before vanishing.
"...silly poltergeist..." She pushed the stone that Peeves had pointed out and watched it open the wall a bit. Pushing it wider, she squeezed inside and shut it behind her, running down the barely lit staircase to the bottom. Counting three hundred and seventy-steps when finally she came to a door, she opened it to find herself right outside the History of Magic class. She entered the classroom and smiled, no one was there yet. As she sat down in the back of the class, the doors opened to reveal the rest of the Slytherin's and the Ravenclaw's who would be sharing History of Magic with them.
"How the bloody hell did you manage to beat us here!"
Kagome laughed, "Narcissa, your beautiful, but not too bright. A kind poltergeist took the liberty of showing me a secret passage..." She clapped sardonically, "Yay..."
Lucius laughed, "Narcissa, you're being a little childish, aren't you?"
"...humph,"
"That's childish for 'yes'." Kagome answered playfully. Watching Lucius Malfoy as he took a seat in front of her, she sighed, 'Pretty hair...why did he have to sit in front of me...now I just want to play with his hair...' Irritably, she pulled on a lock of his hair causing him to cry out in shock and turn around. She smiled, "Could you move to the chair beside the one your in, you art taller than me, so you are also blocking my line of sight."
He rolled his eyes and turned back to the board.
'Damn, didn't work...' She watched him run a hand through his hair to get rid of the ache she'd caused, 'He really does have pretty hair.' She smiled sadly at her annoying predicament. It got worse to; Narcissa sat on her left and kept a glare firmly placed on her. '...I love school...'
Class went without a hitch, until the end. The teacher left with most of the other students, and as Kagome was leaving the classroom to go to charms, her hair was tugged back and the snipping sound of scissors caused her to pale and her eyes to widen.
"Narcissa!"
The room was silent with the exception of Lucius Malfoy reprimanding the childish girl who shared the seat next to him.
Kagome felt her hair brush over her shoulders, tears swelled in her eyes but she forced them black with a few blinks and continued on her way. 'I will not fall victim to bullying...she clearly doesn't know what I'm capable of...or why my cunning one over my bravery in the decision of house placement!' She rounded a corner and made her way to the bathroom where she glanced quickly in the mirror and used her wand to even out the choppy cut made in kind by the blonde/ravenette. "She doesn't know what I'm capable of, but she'll learn soon enough..." Kagome smiled cutely into the mirror before heading off in the direction of her charms class. Ideas already reeling within her Slytherin mind, ready to put into effect and ready to destroy Narcissa Black...but at what cost...
