Bellatrix was in Diagon Alley with her sister's shopping for their school supplies. She was regrettably in charge of her sisters quite often recently, and even though she found it quite annoying, she also loved spending time with them dearly. Knowing one day she wouldn't get to see them very often.
"BELLA!" Cissy cried, "Pleeease can I have it!" Bellatrix shook her head abandoning her gloomy thoughts and looked over to Narcissa to see she was holding a rather pink looking book against her chest like it was the one thing in the world that would make her complete.
"One hundred ways to make your love potion more potent? I don't think so Cissy. You're too young to even think about boys like that." Bellatrix said while smirking at how ridiculous her sister could be at times. Narcissa glared at her sister, eventually putting it back on the shelf when she realized Bellatrix was definitely not getting her the book. "Come on let's go to the Magical Menagerie and see if they have a cat for you, but first let's find Andromeda." After searching through the shop, dragging an angry demon baby named Narcissa behind her; Bella finally found Andy and headed towards their next destination leaving Flourish & Blotts.
It was after she had finally convinced Narcissa that a cat was by far better than any love book that Bellatrix saw Hermione for the first time. She was looking outside the shop window while her sisters cooed and awed over the cats in the store, when it happened. She was amazed by how sexy this girl was. Bella saw that she was shopping for school supplies like her and her sisters. I wonder if she is in my grade, Bella thought to herself. It would be nice to have someone new to play with. She smiled coyly, quickly replacing it with a frown. Bellatrix sighed at the thought of her last school year. She had owned Hogwarts since the first day she got on campus as a first year. Being a Black certainly helped her cause, not to mention the fact that she was beyond her years intellectually which made students afraid of her and what she could do with just a flick of her wand. And now she was Head Girl, which meant even those who questioned her would have no choice but to do as she said. A dark giggle escaped from her lips as she thought about it. But what of this new girl she wondered. Bellatrix continued to watch her talk to vendors in the street, as she moved into another store out of site.

Hermione took a deep breath as she boarded the Hogwarts Express. Here goes nothing, she thought to herself. As she moved through a sea of nervous first years walking towards the back of the train she passed the compartment she normally shared with Harry and Ron. A wave of sadness washed over her as she thought of them, and how she wouldn't see them for almost a year. "Shake it off Hermi-...no...Katherine, just shake it off." She said as she walked further down the train. "Katherine, Katherine, Katherine. Don't forget your new name..." She mumbled quietly as she reached an empty compartment. About fifteen minutes went by and she felt the train jerk itself into motion. She felt relieved that no one had tried to join her, which made it much easier to relax and stretch out. About half way through the trip Hermione had dozed off while reading Hogwarts: A History, ignorant of the fact that Bellatrix Black was inspecting the compartments and hoping to meet her.
Hermione woke to someone prodding her leg. As her eyes adjusted to the light, she was taken aback by the sight she saw in front of her. Bellatrix Lestrange was sitting across from her, or, well Bellatrix Black was. Hermione tensed at first afraid that Bellatrix was going to attack her, but was soon was amazed at how beautiful and calm she was. She had an air of fierceness and power about her, Hermione was drawn to the magical aura she possessed not to mention her looks. Her ivory skin and dark curls that framed her face. Those plump, ruby, insanely kissable lips. Hermione was starting to get seriously turned on by this future killer. This scared her because she never had a reaction like this before, let alone to a girl. She realized she had been staring at Bellatrix a little too long when she noticed that her lips were curling into a seductive smirk. "Sorry you caught me off guard, for a moment I thought you were someone I knew." Hermione said trying to play it off.
"Not a problem at all, My name is Bellatrix Black. I'm Head Girl this year at Hogwarts, so I thought I would come and introduce myself to my new classmate." Bellatrix smiled at her.
"Nice to meet you, I'm Katherine Noxly."
Bellatrix smiled, "Where did you study before transferring to Hogwarts?"
"I was home schooled by my mother, but now she is in Scotland caring for some relatives and no longer has the time to give me my lessons." Hermione replied easily.
"Well then I sure hope she taught you everything you need to know. But if you need help...of any sort, just let me know. Anyway, I obviously interrupted a pleasant nap. I'm sure you would like to continue with it for awhile longer," Bellatrix said as she stood up, making Hermione noticed her sensational body, and how her uniform hugged her in all the right places. "I guess I'll see you later," she said with a mildly seductive tone as she trailed one of her long delicate fingers over Hermione's bare leg.
Hermione sat there in a minor state of shock. Puzzled by what had just happened in her empty compartment. So many things were going through her mind. Bellatrix had been civil with her, maybe even kind. And there was a huge possibility that she just flirted with her, which she hated to admit, made her heart beat a little faster. She looked down towards her leg, and slowly traced where Bellatrix had touched her, wishing she would do it again. Then realization hit her, "What am I doing! She killed...well...will kill Harry's godfather. I can't like her", she let out a small sigh, "This mission is too important for me to be having these...thoughts." Hermione stood up and paced in the compartment trying to pull herself together, and soon came to the conclusion that she should just read one of her school books and forget that the whole thing ever happened.

It wasn't long before the train reached Hogwarts. After Hermione had made it up to the castle she found herself in the Dining Hall. She wasn't exactly looking forward to sitting with the Slytherins, but she knew it was essential for the plan to work. As she made her way down the table looking for a place to sit, she saw Bellatrix and what looked to be her posse. She recognized a few of the people surrounding her; Lucius Malfoy, her siblings Narcissa and Andromeda Black, and from the looks of things the Lestrange brothers. Along with several other people Hermione couldn't be too sure about. She decided though it would probably be best to avoid sitting next to or near Bellatrix for now, until she got her head wired on correctly again. She began quickly looking for a space for her to sit, and just as she was about to sit down Bellatrix spotted her, and beckoned for her to join her and her group.
"Katherine, please come and join us," Bellatrix called out to her. Hermione smiled back and began walking toward her, thinking to herself to behave. "Here sit next to me, Cissy move over towards Lucius." Narcissa glared at her sister slightly as she made room for Hermione. "Everyone this is Katherine Noxly, she's a seventh year here."
One of the Lestrange boys stuck out his hand, "Nice to meet you Katherine, I'm Rabastan Lestrange and this is my brother Rodolphus." He gesture next to him.
"Nice to meet you both as well," she replied as she shook his hand. Then nodded towards Rodolphus, even though she could clearly see he could care less about meeting her. He replied with only a tight nod.
After more pleasantries were shared, and the sorting of the first years had been done, they heard Professor Dumbledore call for every ones attention. "Students, welcome back for another year at Hogwarts." He smiled down on them and continued; "Now I hope everyone had a good summer and are eager..." Hermione began to tune him out, not because she was bored, but because she felt something rub up against her leg. She looked around noticing that everyone around her was either paying attention our playing with their utensils wait for the food to arrive. Everyone except one that is. Bellatrix had a sly smirk on her face while she watched the Headmaster talk. Hermione's breath caught in her chest. And as quick as it was to happen it stopped just as fast. Hermione thought it best to just ignore what just happened, and eat the meal that just appeared in front of her. It was probably just an accident anyway. She thought to herself as she took a bite of food.
"Well everyone, I hope you have had your fill for it is time to retire." Professor Dumbledore stood up, bowed toward the students and fellow Professors, and bean to leave. After that everyone began leaving the Dining Hall. Hermione followed the Slytherin group towards the Dungeons. As they did Hermione began to memorize the route in her head, silently praying to herself that she would get lost trying to find her new living area in the future.
"Purus", Bellatrix said to the Portrait as they arrived at the Common Room. "All right everyone settle in and get ready for tomorrow. Your time tables are in the dorms. Katherine follow me, I'll show you your room." Hermione was guided up some stairs to a room with only two beds in it. "Here is your room. I believe one other girl will be in here as well, so it will be a little more private for you." She continued showing her were the bathroom could be found. Then finishing off the short tour saying, "Also my, private, bedroom is just a few more steps up from your room. Perks to being a Head Girl," she grinned. "If you ever feel the need to come up," she step closer to Hermione leaning towards her ear, whispering in a seductive manner, "you'll be more than welcome," finishing her sentence while lightly brushing her lips against Hermione's ear, sending waves of shivers down her spine. And with that statement said she promptly turned on her heel and walked out the door.
"I'm in so much trouble," Hermione stated out loud. She had fallen in lust with Bellatrix Black, future Death Eater.
