Disclaimer: I live in America. I'm not filthy rich. I'm a teenager. I obviously don't Harry Potter. Addie's mine though. Keep your dirty paws off her.

A/N: Btw, Mermaid Alice Princess is up for adoption. PM if you want it. I'll let you know if you can it. I'm so disappointed in myself- I told myself I'd never put a story up for adoption or do an A/N as an update. You can see how well that worked out for M.A.P. *sigh*I've been attacked by so many plot bunnies it's not funny. It's getting on my nerves. I have so many ideas and I can't get them all down. Okay, enough of my rant and on to the story! Enjoy!

Chapter 2

When the door opened to the Great Hall, Addie nervously smoothed her hair and robes. All the people turned to look at the group of first years. She could see the girls giggling and whispering. She could some of the boys placing on who would go where and the rest…eating, of course. Some of the Ravenclaws had books under the table and were reading. That reminded Addie of herself. She liked to read a lot(not textbooks of course, those were dreadful). Addie barely noticed as the hat sung a song.

"You will come up and put on the hat. It will choose whether you go to Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, or Slytherin," McGonagall was saying. She pulled out a parchment and started reading off it, "Brandon, Elizabeth!"

A short brown curly uneven hair and glasses walked up to hat calmly, looking bored. She placed the hat on her head and it shouted out, "RAVENCLAW!" almost instantly.

"Carlson, Amanda!"

"HUFFLEPUFF!"

"Emerson, Leo!" was the first Slytherin.

Addie was even more nervous. What if she was put in Slytherin? Soon the fear was actually visible on her face. Fred noticed it and nudged her arm, "As long as you don't turn evil, I'll still hang out with you. But you'll probably be Gryffindor. When you get Gryffindor, you can go to our brothers Charlie and Percy if you want. They're red-heads too. Easy to spot."

Addie smiled at him in thanks. She was a little less nervous then, not much, just a little.

"Johnson, Angelina!" A pretty dark skinned girl became the first Gryffindor.

"Jordan, Lee!" The hat barely touched his head before announcing, "GRYFFINDOR!" as well.

"Kavaslaki!"

"RAVENCLAW!"

"Lestrange, Addie!" Some people looked up startled, not knowing they had a daughter. Others shot her nasty looks.

Addie ignored those looks and walked with her head held high. It didn't matter what others thought of her. Fred said he would still be her friend and that probably meant George would too. She sat on the stool and the hat was placed on her head, covering her eyes.

A Lestrange, eh?

I hate that name.

Really now? That's interesting. You're smart, but not quite enough for Ravenclaw. Loyal, but haven't had a chance to show it and not quite for you. You're cunning, yes.

Not Slytherin. Not Slytherin. Addie pleaded the hat.

Slytherin could do great things for you. Are you sure?

Yes! Of course I'm sure! No, I was lying. She told the hat sarcastically.

I get it. If not Slytherin then you most certainly belong in-

"GRYFFINDOR!"

The rest of the school was shocked into complete silence. A daughter of Black's and Lestrange's in Gryffindor? Everyone was certain she would be a Slytherin. Lee finally started clapping and the rest of the Gryffindors joined in hesitantly. Addie quickly walked over to the Gryffindor and sat next to the older red head with Lee in front of her. Angelina Johnson was sitting next to him. Addie faintly heard an Alicia Spinnet become a Gryffindor and sit next to Angelina. She heard Rosier and Selwyn become Slytherin as some of the other Gryffindors shot her wary glances.

Fred and George quickly became Gryffindors and sat on Addie's other side.

"Hello Charlie and-"

"Percy. I must say-"

"It's wonderful-"

"To join you in-"

"This wonderful house."

"Have you met Addie yet?"

"Guess what?

"She's very evil." Fred said.

"Totally evil!"

"Like a muggle witch!"

"Shut up!" Addie told them.

They just grinned at her and Lee was cracking up.

The elder Weasley brother rolled his eyes at his younger brother's tactics at lightening the mood. He put his hand out for her to shake and smiled at the girl, "Hi. I'm Charlie. I'm a seventh year. You obviously know these prats." He gestured to the twins who faked identical looks of outraged offense.

"Hello Addie," the other brother said pompously, leaning around Charlie to extend his hand, "I'm Percy. It's a pleasure to meet you. Welcome to Gryffindor. I'm a third year."

"It's nice to meet you both," Addie beamed. Hopefully the rest of the house would be just as accepting-or at least not gits about it.

"Welcome to or back to Hogwarts everybody. I'll spare you the speech for now. So I just have a few words before the feast. Baddle! Twidder! Squiggle! Lomp! Tuck in!" Dumbledore told the school.

Everybody clapped and cheered. Addie settled for clapping and raising her eyebrows.

"That was odd," she commented as food appeared on the table. She grabbed some fruits and a piece of meat.

"It always is," Charlie told her, "That's just the way he is. He's brilliant though."

Addie looked at Dumbledore and saw him smiling faintly at her with an amused twinkle in his eye. She believed Charlie; he just looked wise and powerful.

"Who's that? Lee asked, not all being subtle in pointing to a greasy haired, hooked nosed, man in black.

Charlie started to say, "Professor-", but Addie cut him off.

"Severus Snape," Addie said in a disgusted tone, "I should give him a bottle of shampoo one day."

"How do you know him?" Percy asked interested as Charlie snickered.

"He's my cousin, Draco's godfather. He comes by occasionally."

"Draco…?" The twins question.

"Malfoy. I have to live with those wackos," Addie sighed, "They keep trying to brainwash me to no avail of course. I, in turn, try to show them my ways." Addie smiled mischievously, "I rebel in every way possible of course. Crazy colors and embarrassing them in front of guests."

Addie then remembered something, concentrated, and turned her hair red with gold stripes. She changed one eye red and the other gold. She made her nails alternate between red and gold. Everybody around her turned to gawk.

"What d'ya think?" Addie asked her new friends brightly.

"Flashy-" Lee.

"Bright-" Charlie.

"Different-" Percy.

"Awesome!" Fred and George of course.

"You're a Metamorphagus aren't you?" Charlie asked her, "My friend Tonks is one."

"Yes I am. I love Dora. Her clumsiness is hilarious. The Narcissist drops me off at Aunt Dromeda's place sometimes," Addie smiled at the memories.

"The Narcissist? Dromeda? How come you can call her Dora? Doesn't she hex you?"

"I'm her beloved cousin. She would never hex me. My mother's sisters," Addie explained, "are Andromeda and Narcissa. Andromeda married a muggleborn and therefore disowned. Dromeda's the nice one. The Narcissist gives up on me sometimes." She laughed to herself.

"Nice-", George said.

"We approve," Fred grinned.

After the feast and being lead into the Gryffindor Common Room through the Fat Lady where the password was "Patronus", Fred, George, Lee, and Addie were discussing what pranks they could do in a corner.

"We have some Dungbombs," George told them.

"I'm still for giving Sevvy some shampoo," Addie voiced. "Wait! I've got it!" And she told them her idea. Her response was eagerly nodded heads. They set off to put their plan together.

A/N: I really don't mind constructive criticism. I actually like it. Please, help me out. I already know what I'm doing for the prank! Mwahahahahahaha! Now that I've got that out, N. E. Person, do you recognize your person. Sorry, you were just briefly mentioned. Okay, not really sorry. Hahaha! Please review, follow, favorite, and whatever-you people get it. That was probably my quickest update ever. Yay me! Merlin, I need to stop talking to myself! Crap! I can hear you laughing N. E. Person!

*N. E. Person slaps me in the head and tells me to get a grip, shut up, and move on*

Me: Thanks for that jerk. I have a bruise now. And I'm just getting over a double bruise. Yes, they exist. Thanks for reading and possibly ignoring my pointless rambling. Sorry, I have no one to listen to them now so I'm taking them out here. Sorry. Shutting up and good bye! ;)
