I only own Kara Metallium.
Chapter 2-The Sorting
The great hall was alive with the rumbling of students whispering to each other. Dumbledore had asked the students to welcome a new student to their midst, Kara Metallium. She was a transfer seventh year student. Older male students eyed her up and down. Older female students looked at her with envy. Younger students were simply awed. Kara was dressed in the standard robes of Hogwarts School of Wizardry and Witchcraft; however, she was very different in one respect. Her bright crimson eyes gave her an exotic and slightly frightening look. Not to mention her hair. One look told you it wasn't normal. Normal black hair didn't shine blue. Anyone who looked at Harry Potter or Professor Snape could tell you that.
Kara Metallium stood before the student body with Dumbledore's hand on her shoulder. His actions were based on reassuring the students of Hogwarts than Kara herself. She held a confident air and had no problem looking at the crowd with serene, perhaps, overconfident calm composure. Dumbledore raised his hands for silence and gestured toward the stool in front of the student audience. Kara sat down and Dumbledore placed the sorting hat on her head.
The hall hushed as the incredibly old hat came alive. Every ear was tuned to its mutterings.
"Ah, Kara Metallium. Your house, that's what you've been pondering. You can't decide between Gryffindor and Slytherin can you? Yes, it's very difficult. You have a loyal heart, but you also have another side, a secret side. You are very difficult Kara; more difficult than any student I've had to place in one hundred years. Oh, I see Kara, that's what you're thinking. Well in that case.better be.Slytherin!"
Kara jumped down from her stool confidently, and with a nod to Dumbledore, strode toward the Slytherin table. A twinkle of eyes was exchanged between the headmaster and new student, not that anyone noticed. Older Slytherin males scrambled to make a space next to them, hoping the mysterious new exchange student would sit next to one of them. She strode down the aisle purposely toward Draco Malfoy. She kindly asked Goyle to move aside with a seductive smile and took a seat next the son of a deatheater. She smiled. Draco got over his initial surprise and smiled back. Food suddenly appeared on the table and breakfast began.

Snape glowered from the high table. His eyes were watching every move of the new student. Her shiny hair and bright eyes were to no avail on the potions master, he hated her. He had never hated any students in his house, perhaps disgust, but never hate. And now, he had to deal with this monster day in and day out. He had no problem believing that Kara Metallium would be a troublemaker. The trouble was what was he going to do with her? Dumbledore had specifically asked him to keep a special eye out for the new student. So as she didn't slip up in her disguise by displaying more than ordinary powers. He knew she had exceptionally high wandless magic skills. Her magic was second to only Dumbledore. Which made her perhaps more powerful than himself. He constrained his rage, which sought to make his body tremble. Here was a student ten years younger than himself. Well, she appeared to be ten years younger, who knows old she actually was. What made it worse was that she was talking with Draco. The boy was a troublemaker himself. If Kara sought to pair up with Draco, he would have a hell of a time defending his house from the onslaught of accusations against it. 'Gods,' he thought, 'how the hell did she end up in Slytherin?!' Snape had known somewhere in the back of his mind that Kara Metallium would be in his house. However, he tried to ignore the other voice in the back of his mind. It told him that he was going to have a difficult time in potions with her.
