The Dark Heir
Chapter 10: Earning their Wings
Harry tryouts for the Slytherin Quidditch Team left him feeling good. There was no doubt about it, he could fly and he could fly well. He out flew everyone on the pitch and was easily the best player for the tryouts. Harry could see the stares of hatred he was getting from the older students as Harry made the team. So it was without a doubt when Filch offered him a Chaser spot.
The one thing he couldn't tolerate were the bluntly fouls Flint was encouraging his teammates to commit. Harry deeply wonder how Marcus Flint ever became the Slytherin Quidditch Captain. His methods weren't about the sport, it was about inflicting as much damage on the other team as possible. He was teaching his players on his team to aim for spots that would cause serious damage to the other team.
If he played like Flint wanted him to, his mother would be disappointed in him. Even he didn't like playing Quidditch like this.
When he made the team, his mother and aunts were thrilled and promise to come to see him play.
Harry hardly paid attention to what Flint was saying, it was all dirty plays and he wanted his players to really hurt the other team. They would be playing Gryffindor; where James Potter also made the team. This would be the first time two first years would be playing. Harry Black was playing as a Chaser while James Potter got the Seeker position. Gryffindor needed a new Seeker since Charlie Weasley was gone.
Neville Longbottom was clearly upset he didn't make the team, but he was supporting his best friend by boasting loudly just how brilliant James Potter was on the Quidditch Pitch. He proclaims the Slytherin team had no chance of best James Potter brilliance.
Harry watch Neville Longbottom boost loudly at the Gryffindor table and he was getting people to admire him for his words. Many believed Gryffindor would win the match, given that Slytherin blew them out last year. Many in Gryffindor, were hoping for the rematch that would put them on top.
"I wish he would shut up," mutters Dora as they continue to watch Neville Longbottom proclaim the brilliance of his best friend James Potter.
"I wish someone would put him in his place," mutters Delphi.
"That would do no good, he'll just make an excuse and proclaim that we cheated," said Harry.
"He's not really all that powerful," said Artemis.
Indeed, Neville Longbottom had the average amount of magic.
The Black children had a large quantum of magic within them. Lily was very good at teaching them how to control their magic.
Someone bumps into Dora causing her to nearly slam her face into her plate of food.
"Watch yourself half-blood!" hisses a Slytherin first year.
"Why don't you watch it!" snaps Harry.
"Watch yourself, Black. You may come from a noble family, but you're nothing more than a filthy half-blood." snaps the girl.
Harry gives the girl a cold look. It was enough for her to take a step back and shudder from the look Harry was giving her. She however quickly regains her composure.
Delphi stood up and got in the girls' face.
"Just who do you think you are?" hissed Delphi.
"Merula Synde. I'm the best first-year witch at Hogwarts, so you will do well to respect me and do what I say," she said as she introduces herself, in a very rude way.
"The best?" repeated Delphi with a raised eyebrow.
"I'm a fourth generation witch and the fourth to be in Slytherin, so you watch your tongue or I'll make your time at Hogwarts unpleasant," said Merula.
"What makes you better than us?" demands Nymphadora.
"I'm the best witch in Hogwarts! I will not be challenged or question by filthy half-bloods!" snaps Merula. She was clearly starting to show frustration as the Black children weren't backing down from her and they even stood in front of her openly defying and challenging her.
"You're going to apologize to my cousin," said Delphi in a soft but dangerous voice.
"I don't apologize to half-bloods!" said Merula in a loud voice.
"Apologies or you're going to find sleeping in Slytherin, isn't going to be pleasant," said Delphi.
Merula wanted to say something back, no doubt cruel and mean, but she stops at the sight of Delphi. Delphi was small, so she wasn't that intimidating, but she was well known for having a 'evil-eye'. Something she picks up from her mother Bellatrix Black. It was a tactic to make any witch or wizard tremble in fear.
Merula wanted to say something, but she felt her skin was crawling as the air began to lose warmth. Delphi was giving her the look that she was going to murder her where she stood.
A shadow quickly looms over them causing all the first years to turn to their Head of House who stood standing over them with a blank expression on his face.
"Fighting?" said Snape softly.
"Half-wit was just leaving Professor," said Delphi as she returns to her seat. Merula looks like she wanted to snap back at the insult she received, but Professor Snape spoke first.
"Indeed, half-wit, be gone," said Snape.
Merula was clearly angry, but she quickly turns tail and walks away. Snape also walks away and returns to his seat.
"I hate her," said Dora at once the moment the cost was clear and they were pretty much alone again.
Harry did too. Merula Synde was a fourth generation witch? While that may be… impressive, the Black Children were maybe around two hundred generations. They would have to check with Bellatrix or better yet, Andromeda who was very good with the Black Family history. It was clear Merula wanted to control the Black children in her attempt to control Hogwarts and perhaps the House of Slytherin.
"I got an idea on how to put her in her place," said Delphi.
Harry and Dora look at their cousin knowing when Delphi had an 'idea' to put someone in their place, it was a revenge scheme that caused people to freak out.
"Hey, Harry," said Draco as he comes over. Pansy Parkinson and Daphne Greengrass come over at once.
"What's up?" asks Harry.
"Your mom is in the papers again!" said Draco as he hands Harry a copy of the Daily Prophet. Draco never called Lily her name, only 'Harry's mom'. Lucius belief in not allowing non-purebloods was slowly disappearing, as Lucius not only grudgingly respected Lily Evans Black but admired her too. Some rumors suggest he wish to shag her despite being apart of the Black Family.
Harry grabs the Daily Prophet and sure enough, his mother was posted on the very front. Still as beautiful as ever, she still looks like she was barely twenty years old. Harry reads the title.
'Lily Evans Black to Receive Order of Merlin First Class'
Apparently, her skills in potions were renown to be a market success. They were so great, she has rewritten the works of potions making and even reformed many potions to help Healers for many of their patients and victims that suffered in the Great War. Cornelius Fudge was personally handing her the award and many people were clapping, Andromeda was beside her clapping and smiling beside Lily.
Harry didn't even bother to read the article.
"She never stops at being amazing," said Dora as she looks at the cover.
"Draco, do you know anything about the Synde family?" asks Harry at once. Harry never heard of such a family. If he hasn't heard of them, that meant they were literally unimportant.
"Not really, why?" asks Draco with a raised eyebrow.
"A girl, first year, Merula Synde is giving us trouble," said Dora.
"I'm going to write mom," said Delphi. "I hope she can get some information. Plus I want her to send me a 'gift' that will make the little bitch submit before the might of the Blacks."
They all look at her and half of them wanted to know what this 'gift' was.
"You got a game soon don't you Harry?" asks Daphne.
"Yeah," said Harry with a groan.
Flint was terrible and quite frankly, it didn't look like they would have a good season. Most likely they would enter last.
Delphi quickly pulls out a parchment and a quill and starts writing down quickly. It was clear she was writing in a rush to get this letter out quickly. The moment she was done, she quickly rolls the parchment into a scroll.
"Kreacher," said Delphi as Kreacher the house elf appeared with a soft pop.
"Yes, Mistress," said Kreacher.
All up and down the table, everyone turns to see Kreacher the House-Elf. Even Merula stops what she was doing to get a good look. Those who came from prominent families knew that owning a house-elf meant your family has a high prestige in the magical world. Merula watches in both awe and envy.
"Take this to my mother or my aunts, whoever is present," said Delphi.
"At once Mistress," said Kreacher as he takes the scroll and disappears with a soft crack.
"What are you up to?" asks Dora with a frown.
"You'll see tonight," said Delphi with a smile. The smile showed she had evil intentions in mind indeed.
"I better go to the pitch and get dress," said Harry as he stands up.
"Why?" asks Draco in confusion.
"Because the Gryffindor's is already heading down," said Harry as he points to the Gryffindor Quidditch Team who were indeed seeing walking down the field towards the Quidditch Pitch.
"Has anyone seen Flint?" asks Dora.
Everyone shook their head. No one in Slytherin seen the Quidditch Captain.
"Slytherin Quidditch Team!" shouted Harry in a loud voice. The Slytherin Quidditch Players stop what they were doing and look at Harry. "Let's go before we're late for the match."
For many, it was strange for a first year to bark orders to the senior members of the team. However, no one was taking charge and they realize with the time they had to check in ten minutes and the match would begin in twenty minutes after they check in.
The Slytherin Quidditch members all got up and quickly went down to the pitch. Harry said nothing as leads them down to their locker room. Harry grabs his Quidditch robes with the number '7' on it with his last name on it 'Black'. The others began to put on their Quidditch robes but there still wasn't any sign of March Flint the Quidditch Captain.
They all had checked in, but Flint still hadn't shown up.
With time ticking away and no one did the pep talk and no one was sure what to do. Harry looks at the clock, which was magical clicking away to reveal they barely had two minutes left. Harry takes a deep breath and stands up, all eyes in the locker room, the other five players look at Harry giving him their undived attention.
"Look, I know I'm not the Captian, and truth is, I have no right to go over our strategy. All I can say is we're going to have to play more defensively than offensive. Beaters focus on hitting Angelina Johnson and Alicia Spinnet off their brooms. Miles, try not to stray too far from the hoops. Higgs, please find the Snitch soon and catch it. The sooner you can end this game, the better things will be for Slytherin," said Harry.
The others nod their head. They get up and walk out the locker room and head to the pitch.
They took off on their brooms and circle the pitch in their emerald green robes.
"Welcome to the first match of the Quidditch Season!" shouted Lee Jordon, "and for a strange reason, the Slytherin Quidditch Captain, Marcus Flint is nowhere to be seen, does this mean the scarlet Lions will walk away with an easy win?" said Lee Jordon. His comment was met by a roar of applause from the Gryffindor side of the stands while getting booed from the Slytherin end.
Harry flies around and spotted his cousins in the stands cheering him on. Dora had literally morph her hair to green and silver as she jumps up and down with her hair flopping around. Delphi still had her silver hair with blue tips on the end, but she was wearing a Slytherin scarf and waving a Slytherin flag.
Harry lines up with the rest of his team towards the middle of the pitch. For a strange reason, the Weasley Twins, Fred and George had large smirks on their faces as if they were pleased with something, or rather something they did. It mischief smirks and Harry knew this because he and his cousins would wear the same smirks when they did something bad.
Harry looks up to where James Potter was hovering above the Gryffindor Chaser Angelina Johnson. He had a large smirk on his face as he looks at Harry. Harry looks at the Gryffindor team and notices their brooms. The Weasley Twins were riding Cleansweep Sevens. Not very fast brooms and only had a max speed of thirty miles an hour. Angelina Johnson, Alicia Spinnet, and the Gryffindor Captain Oliver Wood were riding Comet's 260's. Katie Bell was riding a Nimbus like Harry, but it was a Nimbus 1700. Not as fast as his Nimbus 2000. James Potter couldn't get the same broom as Harry and he was riding a Comet 260.
Harry began to feel better knowing he had the best broom and the greatest skills.
"Captain, shake hands," said Madam Hooch as she flies between them.
Harry flies forward as does Oliver Wood. They shake hands though Wood seemed to be trying to crush Harry's hand with a lockjaw.
Harry knew the rivalry between Slytherin and Gryffindor was known to be intense, both on and off the Quidditch Pitch. He just grins his teeth and deals with it.
Wood lets go and returns to his position as Harry does the same.
"First Year, Harry Black is apparently acting Captain. Most shocking I must say, but Madam Hooch opens the chest, the bludgers are up, followed by the Golden Snitch. Remember the Golden Snitch is worth a hundred and fifty points, so the Seeker who catches it end the game. The Quaffle is release, and the game begins!" shouted Lee Jordan.
Harry immediately shoots forward like a rocket shooting forward and quickly grabbing the Quaffle while dodging the scarlet players. Fred and George Weasley, both saw him heading towards the goal post, Wood was trying to race back in time to get into his position but Harry was soon speeding ahead of him. The Weasley's twins fire the bludgers at Harry but Harry simply tosses the Quaffle into the center goal post with a light under hook toss and it goes in.
The gong sound echoes signally that Harry had officially scored.
Harry raises his hand in triumph as he scores the first goal and Slytherin screams itself hoarse.
"Harry Black scores, making it Ten to Nothing for Slytherin."
Harry felt someone slam into him nearly throwing him off his broom. He was hanging on with one hand and Slytherin screams "Foul!' in one loud voice together.
Madam Hooch's whistle did blow signally it was a foul. Harry swings back up to get on his broom and looks to see James Potter had intentionally slammed into him because he was displeased Harry had scored.
Harry flies forward to take the penalty. Wood got into position and looked ready. The players took a while to line up, given the fact Harry had literally burst down the field before anyone had realized what had happened.
Once everyone was in position, excluding the Seekers, Madam Hooch blows her whistle and Harry flies forward. The starting shooting area was twelve yards from the goal. Harry starts going slow, then he breaks to the left and heads for the lower goal post. Wood falls for it immediately and immediately takes off towards the lower goal post, but Harry had release upon the moment he left the center goal post unguarded, by the time Wood realize what had happened, the gong sounds echo in the stadium once more.
"Harry Black scores once again! Making the score twenty to nothing for Slytherin!" shouted Lee Jordan.
The Slytherin's broke and immediately return to their side of the pitch as Wood collects the Quaffle and passes to Angelina Johnson. Angelina Johnson quickly takes off but the Beaters, Bole, and Derrick immediately fired the Blugers at her forcing her outside and dangerously close to the out of bounds area. Harry and Adrian Pucey immediately chase after her. Harry was able to pull ahead cutting off her route while Pucey was able to come in from the side.
Fred and George tried to help Angelina out by fires bludgers at Harry and Pucey, Harry ducks his bludgers but Boyle appeared and redirects the other bludger at Alicia Spinnet who had come over to help Angelina. Angelina had passed to Alicia Spinnet but the bludger hits her in the arm causing her to spin as she holds her arm as the quaffle was immediately launched into the air.
Harry breaks off and goes after the Quaffle. He was able to grab it as Derrick quickly blocks Katie Bell's path preventing from allowing Gryffindor to recover the Quaffle.
Harry takes off as Fred fires a bludger at him. Harry, however, quickly speeds off as the Bludger passes by him. Harry had crossed into Gryffindor territory with only Oliver Wood ahead of him. He was close,
Once again, Harry was nearly thrown off his broom and this time, someone had not only slammed into him but had deliberately attempted to throw him off his broom.
Harry was dangling off the tip of his broom as Slytherins in the stands stood up at once and shouted "Foul!"
Madam Hooch blew her whistle and immediately started shouting at James Potter who had flown off not even looking guilty. He merely turns his head as Madam Hooch shouts at him, bluntly ignoring her.
"Five additional penalties for Slytherin!" shouted Madam Hooch. Gryffindor cried out in protest. "Unfair!" many were shouting. "You do that again and I'm throwing you out the game!" shouted Madam Hooch.
Harry's teammates, Adrian Pucey and Lucian Bole help Harry back on his broom as he and the rest of the team were giving James Potter a dirty look.
"I thought Flint was bad," mutters Adrian Pucey.
Six penalties for Slytherin. Given the fact the score was 20 – 0 for Slytherin, this was bad for Gryffindor as it could put Slytherin up 80 - 0. Which was not a good start for Gryffindor. Wood looked very upset at his Seeker's actions.
"You want to take it?" asks Bole.
Harry nods his head. He wasn't dizzy and his arm felt fine.
It was strange as Harry looks at the magical clock. It was only twenty-one seconds into the game and things weren't looking good for Gryffindor.
"He's a better shot than I am, it's best he takes it," said Adrian Pucey.
Harry takes a deep breath and flies forward as the chasers and beaters line up.
Harry flies forward and immediately takes the penalties.
To everyone's surprise and to Gryffindor's horror, Harry scored all six penalties making the score 80 - 0. Oliver Wood immediately calls a timeout. Harry flies down to his side of the pitch to the den area as Slytherin was screaming itself hoarse. Then he felt something hit him in the back of the head causing him to literally black out for a moment as he falls headfirst.
"FOUL!" roared Slytherin in anger.
Madam Hooch blows her whistle and Harry opens his eyes to see a blurry sky above him. His back seemed to ache for some reason, then it slowly occurs to him that he fell off his broom.
"You okay?" asks Miles Bletchley the only female on the team.
"I think so," said Harry as he groans as he attempts to sit up. His teammates help him up by putting their hands on his back and making sure he didn't fall back down. "What happen?" asks Harry.
"It was that Potter boy," said Miles at once. "He took one of the Weasley's twin beater bats and hit a bludger at you. I didn't think it would hit you and when it did you fell forward in almost like a somersault in the air. Madam Hooch is screaming at him right now,"
Harry looks behind him to see that James Potter who was across the field and near his Den, was trying to protest his innocence. He wasn't thrown out of the game, but Madam Hooch shouted "Five more penalties!" Gryffindor cried out in protest as this would give Slytherin a tremendous lead and it hasn't even been thirty seconds yet.
"Come on, let's try to talk things through," said Harry as he attempts to get up. His teammates immediately help him up and Bole hands Harry his Nimbus 2000.
Madam Pomfrey, the School's Matron walks over in her healer robes and immediately sits Harry down on the floating bench and immediately begins to look at his head where he had been hit. Ruffling his hair scanning his skull with her eyes.
"I'm fine," said Harry as he tries to wave off the overcaring Healer.
"You don't have a crack skull, that's good to see. If you did you might have to rest and let me fix it," mutters Madam Promfrey more to herself than to Harry. "You might have a mild concussion, here drink this, it's a Concussion Relief Potion," said Madam Pomfrey as she hands Harry a blue vial with a liquid inside of it.
Harry knew she wouldn't leave him alone or let him play if he didn't drink it. So he does, he opens the vial and drinks it.
Harry nearly coughs as he swallows the potion.
"This shit is nasty," said Harry as he looks at the vial.
"Does your mother know you have that mouth?" said Madam Pomfrey in shock.
"Yes," said Harry. It was no lie, his mother knew he had a mouth, but he didn't always use it. She didn't like him using it all the time, but she knew it was acceptable from time to time. Plus he literally got to do whatever he wanted, he just wasn't like Neville Longbottom and James Potter was literally spoiled brats and pathetic in every sense of the word. He did act mature and like he came from an Ancient and Noble Family, with high prestige. Though he did get to act like a child with his mother as she let him sexually harass her with her giggling everytime he pleased her in doing so.
Madam Pomfrey looks at Harry with a frown.
"You should be fine to continue, but if you feel faint or dizzy, return to your Den immediately. I've seen students break their bones when they fall off their brooms," said Madam Pomfrey as she turns around and leaves, taking the vial with her.
"Really overbearing isn't she," mutters Harry.
"That wasn't what we discuss, why did you go on the offensive?" asks Miles Bletchley.
"Because their brooms are pathetic," said Harry honestly as he looks at 'his' team who were watching him. "I got a Nimbus Two Thousand, they are riding brooms that's got a max speed that is what? 40 miles per hour at best. I can go up to a hundred miles, beating them in mere seconds. Trust me, they ain't going to score," said Harry with confidence.
"That's right, your mom bought you a Nimbus Two Thousand!" said Adrian Pucey.
"It's barely been on the market for three months now," said Miles in agreement.
"We should be fine," said Derrick, as he nods his head.
"Just keep putting pressure on their star Chaser, we'll be fine. Besides I'm hoping James Potter does do something stupid again, it means he's going to get thrown out of the game," said Harry with a grin.
"I thought Flint was bad," mutters Adrian.
Harry looks at him and wonders what he meant by saying the same thing over and over again.
They return to the pitch and James Potter appeared to have been sulking on his broom. The Gryffindor's didn't look happy. It was clear they lost their momentum and with James Potter committing flagrant fouls, three of them, Gryffindor had also had a technical foul for James grabbing a Beaters Bat when he wasn't a beater and attacking Harry during a timeout. If they committed one more foul, they would be in the penalty which meant two or three automatic penalty shots. Something they couldn't afford, given the fact it's only been twenty-three seconds into the game.
Harry returns to the pitch and flies forward to take the additional five penalties.
Gryffindor was holding their breath as they prayed their Keeper and Captain, would be able to save the goals to give Gryffindor the momentum it needed to bounce back. Slytherin was screaming itself hoarse, it's members were banging on the rails or whatever they could hit to cheer on Harry, who was quickly becoming a star player.
The Gryffindor's however, ended up groaning in disappointment as Harry made all five penalties. Making the score a hundred and thirty to nothing.
Lee Jordan himself was shocked because this was a recond in Quidditch History. One, there were two first years, at eleven years old, both becoming the youngest Seeker and Chaser in history. Two, in under thirty seconds, the game went from nothing to a hundred and thirty to nothing. Three, all the points had been scored by one player, and that player was a first year. Harry Black name would go down in history.
Harry flies off and this time the Beaters, Derrick, and Bole stood ready and look like they were going to get payback if James Potter even thought of attacking Harry from his blindside again. He didn't, instead, he flies high above the pitch near the upper out of bounds area and just stays there looking for the Snitch. Gryffindor knew by now, the only hope they had was to catch the Golden Snitch.
Harry continues to dominate and within the next thirty seconds, he scored four more goals. Making the score a hundred and seventy to nothing.
After Harry made the goal that gave Slytherin a hundred and seventy points lead to nothing, James Potter suddenly went into a dive. Higgs, the Slytherin Seeker saw what he was doing, took off after him. James Broom, however, was faster than Higgs and he was able to pull up form his dive with the Snitch firmly got in his hands.
The final score was a hundred and seventy to a hundred and fifty with Slytherin winning the match.
Slytherin was screaming itself hoarse, they had beaten Gryffindor, their primary rivals in the Inter-House Cup with sheer points alone. Best of all, the only person who had scored in the match, was Harry Black who was now the Slytherin Star Player and without a doubt an MVP.
The Slytherin's came on the pitch and lift the Quidditch players in the air. They were screaming themselves hoarse.
Harry was put down and he was shaking hands with almost everyone Slytherin.
Then someone grabs him and pulls him into a hug. He could literally feel a wonderful pair of breasts being pressed against his head and it felt wonderful as the person hugs him. He knew these breasts.
"I'm so proud of you," said Lily.
"Mom," said Harry in shock as he looks up at his mother.
Lily smiles down at her son.
"I see joining Quidditch was a good choice for you," said Lily as she ruffles her son's hair.
Harry smiles as he hugs his mother. He wanted nothing more than to grab her nice firm ass checks to claim her body as his. He refrains from doing so, knowing it wasn't a good idea to make his mother sexually slutty in public and in school.
Andromeda pulls him away and hugs him as well.
"Well done, Harry!" said Andromeda as she squeals in delight.
Again, Harry feels his aunt beloved breast and wanted nothing more than to ravish her right now. He was sure Dora would love to see her mother fuck like a slut, with her pussy dripping of Harry's cum.
His cousins, Delphi and Dora quickly ambush Harry and hug him as he was nearly thrown on the ground.
"Harry, party! Slytherin Common Room!" shouted Blaise.
"Go, I'll see you during the holidays," said Lily as she urges her son to go on.
Harry was literally dragged to the Slytherin Common Room by his dorm mates as they were going to party for perhaps the best Quidditch player in the entire school. As well as their victory over the Scarlet Lions.
Harry was literally the center of Slytherin that night. Some of the older students had disappeared to the kitchens only to return nearly fifteen minutes later with food and drinks. Harry's cousins, Delphi and Dora immediately set themselves on Harry's side, but Artemis Wynter had taken Harry's lap, and from the feel of it, she was enjoying herself.
Merula Synde was off to the side, pretending to enjoy herself, but she wasn't smiling nor was she talking to anyone but another girl who appeared to be a first year like them. Both girls appeared to be 'somewhat' friends and were off to the side, talking in low voices.
"What are they talking about?" mutters Harry out loud as he watches them.
"I've never heard of a Synde family," said Dora.
"Me either," said Delphi.
This was unusual as Bellatrix and Andromeda made them study every family in Briton and Ireland. Both the big families, to the small, to the disgraceful and dishonored one. They knew about the Weasley's who was quite frankly one of the worst wizarding families out there. Well known to be Blood Traitors and a dishonorable house.
"I've never heard of them either," said Artemis.
Even though the Blacks had no relations to the Wynter's the Wynter's were a big house, even if Artemis and her mother were the only ones left. It was strange no one has heard of the Synde family.
The party went on all night, literally till two in the morning, with the Slytherin's believing they actually have a chance in winning the Inter-House Quidditch Cup for the first time in nearly ten years. Harry was now the star of Slytherin. Eventually, Professor Snape came by to tell everyone off to bed before he starts handing out detentions.
Everyone did so, as the girls left Harry as they all had the female dorms, Harry went to the male dorms.
An hour later, everyone woke up at the sound of a couple of girls screaming. Everyone quickly started to gather in the Common Room again in their nightgowns to see Merula Synde and her friend were shaken up. They claim someone had attacked them in their sleep and were quick to point fingers at Delphi and Dora Black.
Harry quickly stood in front of his cousins ready to defend their honor.
Seeing the star stand up for his cousins cause many in Slytherin to openly asked Merula if she was merely pointing fingers at the Blacks for her mere dislike of them. Several students even stated they saw her attack Dora openly at the house table and Delphi stood up to her for not bowing to her.
Professor Snape came back in, and he was not pleased. It was clear they disturbed his sleep, which was very stupid.
"What is going on?" demands Snape at once.
"The Blacks attack me in my sleep, Professor," said Merula at once before anyone could say anything.
Everyone stares at her knowing this was an obvious lie.
"Did they now," said Snape softly.
"We were in our beds, Professor," said Dora at once speaking for both herself and her cousin Delphi.
"They were, Professor," said Daphne at once. Tracy Davis who was nodding in agreement.
"Do you have any witnesses to say that they saw the Black's entering your dorm?" asks Snape softly.
Merula fell silence knowing she didn't.
"Miss Bulstrode, did you see who attack your roommates?" asks Snape turning to the girl's roommates.
Millicent Bulstrode was a big girl and a well-known bully, and not that bright. However, she didn't want to get on the wrong side of the Blacks, she knew how powerful they were and even worse, her family knew Bellaxtrix Black was a bit… insane. She already heard the rumors for the few people that did bother or harass any member of the Black family, she would show up to their homes and Cruciatus Curse on them as a lesson to leave the Black Family alone. In some cases, she's even killed some people. No one was has been able to tie Bellatrix Black to any of these incidents. The Blacks have always been able to prove all these people who have been accusing them of these crimes have been after their wealth and gold, meaning the Blacks walk free, and all their rivals and troublemakers have been punished.
She shook her head.
"I merely woke up to hear them screaming Professor," she said, "I saw no one in our dorm."
"I saw the Black cousins coming out of their dorms when we heard Synde screaming," said a second year. Other girls began voicing the same facts that they all saw the Black cousins leaving their dorms.
"It is clear that you're not really good at accusing another Miss Synde. You have detention and I'll be writing to your guardian that you're bringing shame to the House of Slytherin," said Snape.
Merula Synde's face fell and she had a look of fear written on her face. She was clearly not pleased her guardian was going to hear about this. It was clear she was going to be punished and punished badly.
"Everyone to bed, Miss Synde, you will report to my office first thing tomorrow at seven, you understand," said Professor Snape.
Miss Synde nods her head and without a word, everyone quickly returns to their dorms knowing that their Head of House would start putting them all in detention.
Harry looks at Delphi and she gives him a sly wink. Harry only smiles as his cousin got away with the greatest revenge ever.
She was truly her mother's daughter.
Author Notes: Sorry for the long wait, I hope everyone enjoys. While Neville Longbottom and James Potter are the Black's primary rivals from Gryffindor, Merula Synde is their rival in Slytherin, given the fact that Draco is a Black through his mother. More hstory about Merula Synde will be revealed later on.
Please like and enjoy.
