Tori potter chapter 1:

"Potter Tori!" called out Professor McGonagall.

A small thin girl walks up to where she had been called to. She sat upon the stool in front of the assembled school. The Sorting Hat was placed upon her head. As soon as Professor McGonagall took her hand off of the hat, it shouted out "Slytherin!"

Everyone was shocked. The other professors did not look happy about that, not even her new head of house. She made her way to the Slytherin table, sat down and the sorting went on. When it was done, there was food that appeared magically upon the table. She only took a small bit of food, knowing that it would not stay down. None of her food stayed down since her uncle Vernon had hit her 20 times in the stomach with a baseball bat. When she was done eating, she put her head on the table and waited. That was when her head of house Professor Snape got a little bit concerned.

Just then, she felt her food coming up. She asked an older student where the bathroom was, and got up and went. In the bathroom she kept

throwing up for several minutes.

When finally done, she left the bathroom and saw that the other students going to their houses. Miss Potter followed the Slytherins going into their common room. She sat on the couch, to weak to stand and reluctant to talk to anyone.

Professor Snape walked in, explaining that this would be their home for the next seven years. He began to lecture on the rules for the first years. His eyes went over first year students, one by one, studying them.

Snape noticed with a start how small, how thin, and how bruised the Potter girl was. How pale she looked.

He finished the lecture on school rules, and gave everyone permission to go. As Miss Potter stood up, he stopped her. He looked her in the eyes, nodded, and took her arm. He does not tell her where they were going. He would not let her go until they arrived at the infirmary.

He called out for Madam Pomfrey. She stepped out from one of the curtained areas, asking Snape what was wrong. Snape replied, "I might not be happy that Miss Potter is a Snake in my house, but I can say that I am not going to treat her like all my other snakes. As soon as I really looked at her, I could see she needs your help. I would like to know what is wrong with her."

Suddenly Miss Potter stood up and started to leave. Snape turned to her, demanding for her to sit back down. Madame Pomfrey asked her to lay down so that she can do scans on her. They would not hurt her, she explaining it was all to help her.

Miss Potter looked up, asking, "Why would anyone want to help me when I'm just a freak? I should just be dead because no one wants me. I just take food away from people that need it."

They looked at her stunned but didn't answer her. Once again, Snape demanded she lay down, and she did. Snape left the room to give Miss Potter her privacy for the exam. With a flick of a wand, the scans began. Pomfrey could magically see all of the abuse she has taken the last 10 and half years of her life.

When she was done, Madame Pomfrey told her that she needed to stay on the bed and not to get off. "I will be right back as soon as I speak with Professor Snape." Then Pomfrey flicked her wand so that she would know if the Potter girl got out of bed.

With that, she went to Professor Snape in the adjoining room. She put up a silencing charm around them and had a grim expression as she faced him. "Severus, it is very bad and if not for her being here she would have died in a few weeks. I can heal her with time and many potions. She is allergic to many things, so the potions will have to be specially prepared. She can't keep food down, because she's been hit in her stomach. She has broken bones that never healed properly. Cuts, bruises and scars are all over her body. She has been burnt. She has been sexually assaulted more than I care to say. Between the two of us, I can get her well. But we are going to be busy for the next few days."

Snape nodded and looked back in on his student, his "snake" and said, "I might not be happy she in my house but like I said she's a snake, and I take care of my own. I will do what I can to help."
