Chapter 5
By the time Renee and Chad had gotten back to school it was time for dinner. Both of them hurriedly changed into their black robes. Renee decided that her snake (Lily) would come with her to dinner, seeing as the snake had wound herself tightly around Renee's neck and would not let go.
Chad on the other hand, had left his snake curled up in his pillow. His snake (Sirius) decided he would much rather laze around and explore, which was fine with Chad. He met Renee at the portrait hole and the two made their way to the Great Hall.
He then noticed the snake around her neck.
"You know, I don't think that bringing Lily down to dinner was a wise idea."
"Eh, too late now. The poor wittle Gryfs, will have to suffer."
"You know with your attitude, you'll probably be in danger by the end of the year."
"What do you mean by danger?"
"I think he means, trouble," Harry said.
"Where did you come from?" Renee asked.
"From behind you. You know I don't think bringing your snake was a wise idea."
The name is Lily, the snake hissed.
This startled Harry. He looked questioningly at the snake, before turning to Renee.
"Why the name Lily?" He asked.
"Huh? Oh you mean for my snake? I didn't. She told me her name. Said that's what it was. Why?"
"Just curious. My mother was named Lily."
"Hmm, well we are at the Great Hall. I propose we banish all thoughts that are depressing and dive into the delicious meal the little people in the kitchens have prepared for us," Chad said.
Renee left that comment alone, and sat down next to Ron and Hermoine. Harry and Chad sat across from them. As soon as they sat down the plates filled themselves and the clanking of metal on metal and the happy chatter of the students filled the hall.
Chad had immediately started to shove food in his mouth, using his hands and not the silverware that was provided. He got food everywhere and had a bit of turkey hanging from the corner of his mouth. Renee looked at him, for a moment and continued to eat her food, the proper way.
"You boys are a bunch of pigs," Hermonie announced.
This got Ron and Chad's attention.
In unison they said, "You haven't seen nothing yet."
Renee counted, "One. Two. Three."
Both boys began to eat as fast as they could, pushing every utensil out of their way. Ron finished before Chad did, and Chad called for a rematch.
Renee had started to ignore the two and was concentrating more on the conversation she was having with Lily.
~I'm hungry~ Lily hissed.
"Would you like some if my turkey?"
~Suuree~
Renee set Lily on to the table and cut the turkey into small pieces so Lily could eat it. No one really noticed her until Lavender Brown turned around, to say something to Hermoine. She saw Lily on the table and let out a high pitched scream. The scream made Renee's ears ring and shattered glass surrounding them.
The more people that began to see why Lavender screamed, they too began to get hysterical. Soon the only people that weren't screaming or crying were, Chad, Renee, Harry, Hermonie Ron, Fred and George.
By this time Lily had slithered off the table and onto the ground. Renee had no idea where she had gone. Professor McGonagal walked over and with in five minutes had the entire Gryfyndor table quieted. She gave a wary glance at Renee, who in return smiled brightly.
She stood up and looked about the room to see if Lily was on the ground.
"You need help finding her?" Chad asked.
"Yeah," Renee replied.
She walked around the room, and suddenly stopped. There sitting at the table decked in green and silver was the pale boy with light blonde hair. And in his hand there was Lily.
Renee walked over to him. Draco Malfoy saw the new girl walk toward him. Her hair was blonde and she was about his height may be a little shorter. Her green eyes were intense, but what he noticed about her were her ears. They were elf ears.
As she approached the boy many of the other kids in his class gave her dirty looks. Renee brushed them off, and sat down next to the boy. The boy was startled she could tell.
His blue eyes looked over her and she saw that they were filled with jealousy and hatred. For who she did not know.
"We don't allow Gryfyndors here. You are not welcome. Leave," the boy said.
"Well I'd be more than happy to. I know when I'm not wanted," Renee said, yet she didn't move.
"What so you want?"
"Well I would like my snake back, since my house decided to be lame. I also found out that they are a bunch of pansies. But other than that I have no desire to sit here," Renee said, then in a stage whisper she spoke again, "And I think that your girlfriend is getting a bit mad."
This caused Draco to laugh. He handed her the snake and said, "Pansy is not my girlfriend."
"Eh, well what ever you say."
She turned her attention to Lily. Her purple eyes glittered.
~ He will turn. Weather for the good or the bad, I'm not sure. Be watchful of him.~
"How can I be watching him if I don't even know his name?" Renee asked.
~ His name is Draco Malfoy. The Slytherins are meddlesome lot. Manipulative. Be careful around them~
The entire Slytherin table stared at her. Draco smiled. This year was defiantly going to be interesting with her around. She would have made an excellent Slytherin.
No one had noticed that Dumbledore and another man had entered the room. The man looked at the girl sitting at the Slytherin table, completely out of place.
"That is my daughter?" He asked.
"Yes. And that is your son turning her hair into flames," Dumbledore said, grinning a little.
Sure enough Chad had just mastered a spell from their joke book and was turning Renee's hair into flames. The flames didn't burn her at all, nor did it to the people around her. Renee found this humorous and then turned around and managed to turn Chad's ears into large pink fluffy bunny ears.
"Did you tell them about....."
"I lied. I felt that it was not my place to say. I said that their father had gone to Azakaban. For killing thirteen muggles and a wizard. But Renee and Chad figured out that it was not who I said their father was. They are very smart."
"They won't understand."
"I'm sure they will. They understood quite well about being witches."
The man nodded and left the room. Dumbledore walked to the two feuding siblings and said, "I need you two to come with me."
Chad nodded and followed Dumbledore, while Renee slid the joke book to Fred and George. Then she ran to catch up with Dumbledore and Chad.
Fred and George grinned and looked through the book. Ron spoke up after a few moments of silence.
"You know what I noticed? I noticed that those two have elven ears. Wonder why."
"Maybe their father was an elf," Hermonie said.
"Yeah," Harry said.
"But that doesn't make any sense whatso ever. I've read books about them. Their father couldn't have been an elf," Ron said.
"Don't believe everything you read, Weasly," Draco said.
He then left leaving Hermoine scowling and Ron's ears a slight pink color.

"This has to do with who your parents are. I'm afraid I haven't been quite truthful with you two," Dumbledore began.
