Evil , slimy , potions masters with bad attitudes and greasy hair that looks

Sirius looked up , just as a tall boy with black hair opened the door . He
stood above them all , looking distastefully down at them .
"Who are you ?" Sirius asked , rudely .
"No one you know ." Answered he boy .
"Well , obviously !"
The boy just glared .
"My name is Severus Snape ."
"Oh . Great name ." Sirius said , VERY sarcastically .
"Oh , and I suppose your name is much better ."
"Well , it is . I am named after the brightest star in the sky !" He said
proudly . And then he went into a long speech . " Yes , first I would like to
thank my mother , and my father , and most of all , God . And I would like
to thank the academy ..."
"The Academy ? What the hell is that ?"
"Who knows ?" He shrugged . "I just saw it on a muggle TV show once ."
"Well ......... What's your name ?"
"Sirius Black ."
Snape began to laugh , a sneer on his face the whole time .
"Sirius BLACK ? That's a HORRIBLE name ! Lord , your parents must have
been DRUNK when they named you !"
He had gone too far . Sirius lunged at Snape . Next thing Snape knew , he
was lying on the floor of the compartment , being pounded senseless by a
boy who had jumped on top of him .
"Holy -"
"Get off of me !"
"Apologize !"
"NO !"
"Yes ! Just a - oof - pologize !"
"Why would I apologize to you ?"
Sirius got up . He had enough for now .
"Get out ."
"What ?!"
"Get out of my compartment ."
"Your compartment ?"
"Just get the - just get out ."
He turned on his heel , haughtily , and strode out the door .

Snape came across his old friend , Lucius Malfoy .
"Why , hello Lucius ."
"Hello Severus . How are you ? Oh ... what happened ?"
"A guy named Sirius Black beat me up ."
"Sirius Black ?" He said harshly .
"Yeah ... you've heard of him ?"
"Yeah ... You won't have to worry about him much longer . Voldermort has a
plan for him ."
And he walked away . Snape stood , scratching his head , confused .
"Voldermort ? Who's voldemort ?"
