The Vampire Half 2 Author's Note: At last! The long awaited Vampire Half 2 is back! I have at last finished Crazy Quest and began this story. Every character belongs to J.K. Rowling except Ruby, Justice Archlight and some other imaginary magical creatures and people. Don't worry about the Serbian language: you read it as it is written and you write it as you say it. For example: Rastko Zmajevich ( Ras-tko Zma-ye-vich).

Little Ivana woke up in the Slytherin dorms this morning with the other third year Slytherins. She was a petite girl with fairy blonde hair and huge blue eyes, unlike her older sister Tara who was tall, strong, and had chestnut hair and violet blue eyes. Tara was a sixth year student.

'So, you are a new girl here, eh?' asked one of the Slytherin girls shrewdly.

Ivana nodded. She wasn't a cold person type.

'You better stay away from those Gryffindor show-offs.' advised another girl.

'Why?' asked Ivana, frowning.

The girl gave a cold laugh.

'Don't they at your place the opposite houses hate each other?' hissed the girl.

Ivana thought about that.

'Compete which house will win? Yes. Hate each other? No.' Answered Ivana slowly.

The girl looked surprised.

'You're lucky.' The girl answered, looking at the clock.

It was time to get dressed. As the other Slytherins put on their black robes with green sashes, Ivana put the plum-colored Zlatiznak robes. On the throat of the robe collar, she buttoned the last big button, on which was the picture of a lynx looking out of it. Headmaster Dumbledore allowed the newcomers to keep their old school robes.

The girls stared at her as she went out of the door into the common room.

In the common room her older sister Tara was waiting for her, wearing the same robes with the same sign. She was frowning and looking impatient.

'Gde si li do sada?' hissed Tara to Ivana in her language. (Translation: 'Where were you up to now?')

'Samo sam se obukla.' Defended Ivana. (Trans: 'I was just getting dressed.')

Tara sighed.

Suddenly, Draco Malfoy came up to them, wearing a smile on his face.

'Welcome,' he greeted, taking out his hand, with which the girls shook,' I'm Draco Malfoy, I'm sure you've all heard about me. I am one of the most handsomest men in Slytherin and also the most respected one.'

Tara sniggered down at him.

'You? The handsomest? Such a pale boy as you? And the most respected? That I've got to see!' Jeered Tara.

Draco grew red. He pretended to ignore that.

'I tell you not to hang out with those Gryffindors, or..' He drawled.

'Or what?' asked Tara, raising an eyebrow.

'Or with anyone that is in their house for now or is friends with them. I duel with those who seek permission to speak with these riffrats.' Snarled Draco.

'Strike your match!' challenged Tara, drawing her wand out.

A deadly silence stroke the Slytherin common room. Draco took out his wand and took his pose.

'On the count of three,' breathed Draco, 'one...two..three!'

'?xpelliarmus!' both of them cried out, disarming the opponent.

Their wands flew to the opposite sides. Everybody stared.

'No one had ever been able to disarm Draco here, ever!' spluttered Pansy.

Draco stood shakily up and walked over to Tara.

'Great job, Jordanivich,' congratulated Malfoy, shaking her hand. (Say: 'Yor-dan-o-vich)

Suddenly, in came a dark figure with sweeping black robes.

'There will be no dueling in the common room,' Professor Snape whispered in a deadly voice,' five points from Slytherin. Make sure this doesn't happen again.'

'Yes professor,' spoke Malfoy quietly.

Severus turned to the two girls. The tall one was standing proudly and the younger one was standing next to her, looking a bit frightened.

'Welcome to the Slytherin House,' said Severus to them,' you will obey the rules here and try to win points for this house. Now, why did this duel start?'

'Draco was insulting everyone who was in the Gryffindors, where my cousins are there now,' answered back Tara.

Severus gave a small smirk.

'Make sure this doesn't happen again,' he ordered, sweeping out of the room quietly.

'That was Professor Snape,' explained Draco to the sisters, once Snape left the room,' he gives the points to us always, but when he takes them away, he at least spares us the shame and does it in private.'

They nodded.

'I have Transfiguration first,' piped up Ivana,' can you show me where it is?'

*******

'Vesna, I tell you again, this is the safe place to hide it!' protested Dushan as the Zlatizank professors were talking in the empty staff room with their Headmaster.

'Anybody could get their hands on it!' bit back Vesna Gvozdanovich,' I heard that Voldemort has spies everywhere! The potion isn't safe here!'

'What do you think about this Headmaster?' asked furiously Dushan Popovich, turning to Headmaster Zmajevich.

Rastko Zmajevich was quiet.

'For now the potion will be safe, but not forever. We will have to tell the world one-day about this. But now we must concentrate how should we stop Voldemort from getting his hands on it, or he will become much stronger and it'll be the end of all of us!' spoke Rastko calmly, looking through the Hogwarts window hardly.

Author's Note: What are they talking about? Review for this chapter. Thanks Cheo for the pictures! I loved them! Only that Professor Trelawney wears glasses and I couldn't get to the link with Ruby's picture. Can you tell me how to get to your site?

Anyway, I had promised to explain you the names. The word 'Zmaj' from Zmajevich means 'dragon', 'Gvozden' from Gvozdenovich means '(made of) Iron', 'Pop' from Popovich means 'Priest' (this is a common surname in my country). Rastko was a historical character from Serbian History who was actually from noble blood, but joined the monastery. He was later proclaimed as a saint. Dushan was another character who was a great king from our history.
