Hey guys thanks for the supportive reviews.
I thought I'd post another chapter, I probably wont be able to get another one out till next week though. Hope you like it.
I have a question, when I look for my story I can't find it. What are you guys looking under to read it?
CH 3
As Ron, Harry, and Hermione walked down to breakfast, Harry told them of his discovery.
"Hey Harry, that'd be great if he was family, maybe you could stay with them instead of the git-of-a-family you have now, no offense!"
"It's alright Ron, I couldn't agree more!"
"But Harry, you shouldn't get your hopes up, I mean it a very good possibility that it is just a coincidence."
" I know Hermione, and I can't exactly go around asking silly questions, he'll think I'm stalking him or something.
"Well you could at least introduce yourself today, and explain you've seen him before, but how do you find out more?" Ron said.
"I know," said Hermione, "We could hold a first years meeting and introduce them to the rest of the house, and Harry could pretend to be scouting out new quidditch talent."
Ron and Harry grinned. Leave it to Hermione to come up with a brilliant plan!
They walked into the dinning hall, and sat down at the Gryffindor table. Shortly thereafter, Mark and a couple of other first years came in. As Mark walked by, Harry stopped him.
"Hell...Mark isn't it? I'm Harry Potter. Here is your schedule; you've got double potions with the Slytherins, no surprise there though. Just watch out! I know you know who I am, you live in my neighborhood. I just wanted to say hi, and that it's nice to have another wizard around. So far I've been the only one."
Mark looked stunned. " Thanks...I'm glad to meet you. I was hoping you wouldn't be like that other boy...Dooley? Yeah I've heard about the problems between Gryffindor and Slytherin, thanks for the heads up."
"Dudley is my cousin, and besides you I'm his favorite target. We'd better eat soon, before breakfast is over."
"Bye Harry." Mark said as he walked toward the other first years. He sat between He had managed to get to know some of them. Derrik Brown was a dark-haired, dark-eyed, intelligent boy, who had an older sister in Gryffindor. He came from a wizard family. John Leland was a blonde-haired, blue-eyed, prankster. John was a fellow muggle, and Mark thought he could definitely get along with him.
"So Harry," began Hermione, "Did you talk to him?"
"Yeah, he seems real nice, kinda a quiet though."
"Hey mate, then he's got to be related. Nobody is more quiet than you!" Harry playfully slugged him in the arm.
"Hey you two, quit horsing around, we are going to be late for Potions!"
They took off at a run, Ron complaining the whole way that it was a conspiracy they had to have Potions with Slytherins every year. They slid in the door, as the "greasy git" began his stalk to the front of the room.
Mark, John and Derrik walked into the Potions classroom. It was their last class of the day.
"Gee it's dark in here, I can barely see!" John said.
"My sister told me that the teacher is head of Slytherin, and he always favors them."
"Guess we'll find..."
BOOM, Mark never got the chance to finish. A tall man with greasy black hair, and billowing black cloak stalking past after slamming the door, and made his way to the front of the classroom.
"There will be no silly incantations or wand waving in this class!" And so it began.
"Man the guy is terrible!" John complained.
"Tell me about it, I don't think ill be able to stand double potions!" Derrik continued.
" He is so distracting, how are we supposed to learn anything, I'm to worried about him cursing me or something." Said Mark
The trio made their way back to the common room, to hang out until dinner. There was a notice posted by the door.
'Attention all first years, there will be a meeting tonight. It is intended to introduce you to other members of the house, as well as Hogwarts rules. Attendance is mandatory.'
"Well at least we have an excuse to post-pone doing our homework!" Derrik enthusiastically exclaimed.
"So did you guys get the meeting organized?"
"Sure did mate!"
" We are going to have the prefects, you, Ginny, Neville, Dean, Luna, Lavender, Collin, and Dennis. Just a few at first. Names are hard to remember. We put a post up in the common room." Hermione told him.
"Thanks guys, I really appreciate it. So when is the meeting?"
"Tonight, after dinner." Hermione informed him. And the three of them went down to the dinning hall for dinner.
