Hey, guess what, though I've tried, I still do not own anyone except for Skyla, Kaira, and Elessa Kyari. J.K Rowling does.

Unknown Secret
Chapter 6, Potions
Skyla awoke the next morning to a soft purr and demanding "Meow!" She turned to see Elessa Kyari sitting by her head and begging to be scratched. Skyla rolled over and got out of bed, scratching Elessa under the chin. Elessa purred even louder and nuzzled up to her. Skyla changed and went to the great hall for breakfast.
As she was eating, she felt someone sit next to her. She turned and gave a soft gasp. It was Draco! "Hello," he said, "Skyla was it?"
"Y-yes." she answered.
"How old are you?" he asked.
"I-I'm thirteen," she admitted.
"A little old to be a first year, isn't it?" Skyla nodded, and he didn't push the question further. "Are you allowed to go to Hogsmede?"
Skyla vaguely remembered Dumbledore saying something about Hogsmede. She assumed it was a town or something. "I-I think so." she stammered.
"Then, would you like to come with me next Hogsmede weekend?"
"Uhh…" She wondered what a Hogsmede weekend was, but if he was asking her out on a date…she suddenly got an idea. If I were his girlfriend, wouldn't it be a lot easier to spy on him? *Besides, he is pretty cute. * "A-alright I guess," she said and he left. Then, a question popped into her mind. What am I supposed to be spying about?
To answer her question, a flock of owls flew in and one stopped in front of her with a letter in its beak, not so gracefully landing on a plate of toast. She quickly took the letter and opened it. It said:
Dear Miss Auren,
I'm sure you are wondering what you are supposed to be doing. I want you to give me as much information as you can about what Draco's father is doing. To report to me, all you have to do is write me a letter every month, even if it is saying that you could not find out anything, I won't be displeased. In fact I am very proud of you for doing this, as I am sure your parents would have been.
-Albus Dumbledore
'It's like he knows everything,' Skyla thought. The letter had just answered all of her questions, and then some.
She then took out her schedule, which she had found on her trunk that morning and looked at it. "Lets see, we have Potions, then Transfiguration, then Defense against the Dark Arts," she muttered aloud to herself. "How am I going to find all of these things?"
Thankfully she spotted another first year sitting across from her. Her name was Kaira Emmot, and together, they managed to find the dungeons in which potions were held. Skyla and Kaira sat down at a table together. Then, the potions teacher arrived. He had greasy black hair and somewhat pale skin.
"My name," he said, "Is Professor Snape. I am the potions teacher and also head of Slytherin house. This year we will be working with the basics of potion making, which, I should not call basic, because some of the concepts will be quite complex. Now, take out a sheet of parchment and a quill…" The rest of the class period was spent taking notes.
"Well, that wasn't too bad." remarked Kaira as they headed out of class.
"Too bad?" said Skyla, "My hand is killing me." and they both laughed.
Turning the corner, they saw a large crowd and heard yelling. "Go away Malfoy, and shut your mouth, we're all dieing of your stinking breath." Skyla and Kaira wormed their way up near the front of the crowd, where they had a better view. There was Draco, the two larger boys, Harry, Ron and Hermione, who was looking very uncomfortable.
"Oh yeah Potter?" Draco said with a sneer, "What about your breath? Halitosia!" he yelled and a blast of yellow light hit Harry, which made pungent fumes leak from the corners of his mouth.
"Finite!" yelled Hermione, pointing at Harry, which made the fumes stop. "Can we please just leave them alone? We're going to get caught."
At that very moment, Professor Snape rounded the corner. "What have we got here? Potter, fighting in the halls again? That'll be twenty points from Gryffindor-"
"Please Professor," begged Hermione, "Malfoy started-"
"Keep your foul tongue in your mouth Miss Granger, that will be another ten points from Gryffindor. Now I suggest you all get to your classes before I take away more points." he glared. Skyla thought this was most unfair, and almost said something about it, but saw the look on Snape's face and decided it would be best to keep her mouth shut.
Harry glared at Snape then at Draco and stalked off, the crowd dispersing and Ron and Hermione following. Draco glared at the back of Harry's robes and reminded Skyla much of Lyenna.
He then turned and saw Skyla. "I'm sorry you had to see that, but Potter was acting up again and I had to set him straight," he said, smiling a sweet smile at her. She forced a smile back, even though right now he disgusted her with his attitude of how nothing here was his fault at all, and it seemed that Snape thought that as well. So this is how things work around here. If you're mean to Harry, you get praised, if you try to help him you get punished, how horrible.
So she and Kaira walked off, looking for transfiguration.
