'By boat to Hogwarts ! All the way the modern way wizards could travel this was the methods they chose.I don't even think muggle use boats for traveling anymore and to think that Draco found this quit fun . Yeah really fun to take a bout ride in the middle of the night, what if one of those boats would sink, and what if someone didn't know how to swim, he or her could drown before anyone could find then in this darkness... ' Alexandra told herself as she looked at the boats then she would have to use, or maybe there must be away to get around this. That was it , there had to be a teacher and adult anyone she could ask , but as luck had it , she didn't saw anyone. As she took little steps to the boat ,her stomach did flip flops, and the fact that Draco left her alone wasn't useful.She got to the boat and a very very big man put her in it .

'Mister , isn't there anther way to get there?', she said but the man didn't answer and just put two more kids in the boat and after that he pushed the bout.

This was terrible, Alexandra could sens tears in her eyes , she couldn't fight then as she couldn't fight the felling in her stomach.

'Hi don't cry there is nothing to be afraid of , this boats are safe , i read it in Hogwarts a history that , they are spelled to float in any conditions'

Alexandra hear the girl but she she was to stress to understand what the girl has saying. TO keep herself form crying Alexandra did the only thing that she tough it would help her, she looked at the water . In her struggle to clam herself , she only manage to get more nervous , more scared , and with a little blow of the wind she fell in the lake.Just as luck have it Alex didn't know how to swim , but that wasn't the least of Alex worries because as she struggle to try to swim she felt a hand grabbing her leg and taking her down to the bottom of the lake.

'AAAA' Alexandra scream as she opened her eyes and nearly jump for the bed .

Bed ? How did she get in bed , and how has it that she wasn't wet, and how were those people looking at her.

There were four people , tow men and two men and neither of then said anything they just stared at her. One of the women was dress just like your typical healer, she looked kind and stern in the same time it was strange. The other women was older looking , had her black hair pulled back into a bum , square glasses , beady eyes, this women reminder so much of a cat it was scary. The other two people in the room , one of them Alex know right away how he was, Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore , she had his card so many times that she even know his full name and it was a very very long name. Alex moved to look to the last person in the room, he was tall , dress in dark and had a very big... nose, with a second Draco said... this can't be ... or could it ... this man was ... her ... her father ... someone she never thought she would see. She went to the edge of the bed and took a better look at this person , she was tying despaired to find somethings that would make it obvious that she was his daughter. He had black eyes , she had black eyes, but so did her mother, OK maybe something else, he had black straight hair, she had black almost strait hair, but her hair was just liked hers mothers hair, he has tall, she wasn't... tears seamed to fill her eyes , but she pushed then away and got back to the middle of the bed and looked down.

'Miss Snape, i am Albus Dumbledore, headmaster of Hogwarts and this is Minerva McGonagall, headmistress, we are terrible sorry about the boat accident and that you missed the sorting ceremony. Madame Pompfy told us that you are felling well enough to go on with you sorting now , are you all right with that ?"

' Yes, headmaster' Alex said still looking at her hands.

'Good then Professor McGonagall will put the sorting on you head and it will tell what house you belong in.'

Alexandra felt as a hat was put on her head, but she has too sad to care , she didn't have anything in commune with her father maybe just a name , but will it be enough for him to like her.

'Hmmm... quit a sad little girl aren't you .'

Alex was startle by this voice coming from her head but answered ' What are you ? '

'I'm the sorting hat of course, I'll sort you in one of the four houses of Hogwarts, and by the looks of it you would be great in Grifindor, you got the courage...'

'Please no , mister hat , i want to be in slytherin ! '

'Slytherin ! girl you will not fit well there and you may never reach your true meaning. '

'I don't care , maybe this is the only chance i get to know my dad, he will not want to have anything to do with a griffindor , maybe , just maybe he will like me if I'm a slytherin.'

'So you have a plan , maybe you would do good in slytherin after all... so be it ... SLYTHERIN' the hat shouted and Alex could olmost see the disappointment in the headmaster eyes.

'It seams that you are a slytherin miss Coldheart, we will let you then to your head of house'

Dumbledore left with McGonagall, and the healer look stern at her now new head of house and the she left as well. Now it was just her and her dad, she should be happy , but all she wasn't .

A few moments of silence past and no one said anything, then Severus Snape took a sit next to his daughters' bed and started to talk , his voice was stern but not in the same kind of stern voice the mister Lucius had.

'You are now a slytherin , and i am your head of house , as i told the rest of my snakes i don't tolerate rules breaking or any fights inside the house. You will need to be close to your those in your house because you will find out soon enough the being a slytherin , you will be blame for most things , and you are least likely to be consider innocent. There are more slytherin rules that your classmates will tell you , for know i want to talk about is the fact that you are my daughter. '

As he said those four little word 'you are my daughter ' Alex looked up at him.

' Your behavior will be exceptional, there will be no rule breaking , no backtalk, no lying and i can assure you that there will be conseques if those rules are not respected.I must remind you that you are not home ant that i will not tolerate any tantrums do you understand?'

' Yes sir' i say . He is strict that's for sure and when i thought he would be something like Remus Lupin, what a good joke.Anyway he said there will be conserve but he never said what they were better ask now than find the hard way. ' Sir , could you tell me what the consengues are ?'

' They depend on the misdeed, you will received a lecture for minor things, you will right lines , be grounded , taken away privileges and many more terrible things but i suggest you stick to the rules and will get along very well.'

'Yes sir.'

'You are to use the name Coldheart, it will be more easy for both of us, you will ask me before you tell someone else the connection between us and...'

'But sir Draco Malfoy all ready knows...' Alex started to say , but just went she saw the the look he was giving her. She had interrupted him, she really had to get rid of this habit. 'Sorry sir.'

'Yes i would appreciate it , if you would let me finish that i have to say , so may i continue or do you have more to say .'

In the tone he said it , it wasn't a question so Alex gave the only response she thought would be addictive ,'No sir, sorry sir'

'As i was saying, you will not tell anyone else, Mister Malfoy was informed to use when speaking to you the name Coldheart. Madam Pomfry inform me that you will spend the night here , in the morning i will present you to the other people in the house, but before I'm quit interested how you manage to nearly drown yourself today .'

Alex looked at her hands ' well sir it is a long story, maybe you could not talk about it ...'

'No we will not let it go , we will...'

'I'm afraid of water and i don't know to swim , OK ! 'As she said it Alex could fell the look he was giving her, maybe she exaggerated a little , but she has curios to she if he would let it slip or kept his word.

Severus Snape rose from his chair and said in a cold voice 'There will be a 2 feet long easy on my desk on your first potions class about why shouldn't children interrupt when adults are talking , you may use examples from your personal expiring, do i make myself understood '

'Yes sir.'

'This is all for now , you will go directly to sleep, don't even try to go wondering, because i will know , and trust me you don't really want to start your stay here at Hogwarts like that. For our next little chat i would appreciate it if you would look at my when you are talking , it's a sing of disrespect if you don't , and i will not stand for it .'

'Yes sir ' Alex said looking straight into her dads eyes.

'Try by next time Miss Coldheart to learn more words the yes sir'

'yes... i mean as you wise professor'

'Good night Miss Coldheart' he said walking out of the room.

'Oh bloody hell, and i toughed i was unhappy , i don't even think i know the meaning of the word',Alex whisper as she laid her head on the pillow and went to sleep.
