Chapter 6: Facing My Past
My past has returned to haunt me
The face I left behind
It has returned in this dark hour
To repair a broken bond
Lady Artemis Gryffin (AKA Goddess) {Sorry on some of my other chaps I ID
myself as Callmegoddess because that's my pen name somewhere else}
When the entered the dreary potions lab, Professor Mcgonagall motioned for Professor Snape to come out into the hallway. After sending a harsh glare at the Gryffindors he swept out of the classroom followed by Professor Mcgonagall. Instantly people swarmed around Artemis. She tried to be friendly to all but then she heard a familiar voice.
"Hello Artemis" came the voice in a well-mannered tone.
Knowing immediately whom the voice belonged to she whirled around.
"Draco Malfoy" she said with a voice full of revulsion "What a surprise".
"A surprise Artemis" replied Draco "what do you mean". He finished curiously.
"I thought I left you in the bottom of that well, silly me I should have known you are to cold blooded to drown" she said as she smirked at him.'
"You don't mean that do you Art," said Draco then he did something that even Crabb and Goyle noticed infuriating all the Gryffindors he leaned over and kissed her on the cheek.
Harry ran to her side and yelled- "Stay the hell away from her Malfoy".
"Art I see you've enlisted Potter as one of your bodyguards. My congratulations that was fast". Draco stated.
Artemis lost her temper at that point he was rude obnoxious a jerk you name a descriptive word for anything but something good and he fit it perfectly.
"Malfoy you are to address me as Lady Gryffin, and as for Harry he is a better friend than you could ever be and would never attempt to hurt me". And with that she threw him a murderous glance and with a twirl of her cloak she sat down next to Hermione.
Before Draco could say anything Professor Snape stepped back into the room.
"Return to your seats immediately" he snarled at the class motioning to Artemis he said " Lady Gryffin has surpassed your level of potions so she will be assisting me with those of you who have trouble. Milady" he turned to Artemis slightly bowing his head " would you please assist Mr. Longbottom he seems to have a problem with melting cauldrons. Perhaps you can smooth that out." She nodded and stepped over to where Neville was working. She gave him a smile that made every other boy in the room want to be working with her. Once professor Snape handed out the assignment (a healing potion) she began talking seeing that Neville wouldn't speak because he was so frightened of Professor Snape.
"So Neville how was your summer" she said as she added a salamander that had been bottled in blackberries to the potion.
"Fine milady " he answered growing pink with embarrassment
Artemis grinned, " Mr. Longbottom you are never to call me Milady, Lady Gryffin or Lady Artemis just call me Artemis and I think we will be great friends."
"All right Artemis" he said glowing pink.
After a while the period ended and as they gathered up their things Artemis bent over to Neville and whispered "I will right the wrong that was done to you".
Neville blinked not sure he heard her correctly and she was gone leaving him to wonder what she meant.
