It was the third day of Harry's 6th year at Hogwarts. He still had a huge smile on his face – he had received 'Outstanding' on all his O.W.L test scores, and got into every subject he wanted. Looking around the Great Hall, he noticed that nearly every 6th year had a grin on their face, that was until he turned to the Slytherin table.

Draco Malfoy. Just the thought of his name wiped the smile of Harry's face. Malfoy looked up from his eggs and bacon, knowing that Harry was looking at him. He gave a sly smirk and turned to Pansy Parkinson, another Slytherin, and whispered something to her, but he kept his eye on Harry the whole time. Pansy burst into sequels of laughter and gave Malfoy a slightly, flirty tap on his hands. "Harry...?" Harry realised someone was saying his name and he turned around. It was Hermione. He gave her a quick smile and she carried on talking. "I was thinking that maybe we should keep the DA up and running...that's if you want to Harry...Harry??" Harry had stopped listening again. He rose from his chair and said to Ron and Hermione "Urgh, we'll talk about it later... um lets go get ready for Defence Against the Dark Arts." Harry then walked out of the Great Hall.

As Harry and Ron were walking down to dinner that night, Harry walked right into a new girl. She had robes on, but they didn't have a house symbol. She gave him a quick smile, "Oh god, I'm so sorry. I really should be looking where I'm going," she apologised. Harry smiled back, "That's ok, I take it your new? You don't look like a first year," he questioned. The girl suddenly looked slightly nervous, and Ron noticed that she was pretty good looking, with her long blonde hair in a simple plait down her back. "Oh," she giggled nervously, "I'm from Australia, I got transferred her when we moved. I'm in sixth year...I'm Danielle by the way, Danielle Reid." Danielle was starting to look uncomfortable. "Er you look lost – I'm Ron, Ron Weasley. Where to you have to be?" Danielle looked at her letter, and showed Ron. She pointed to a name – Snape. Seeing their horrified looks she said "He's meant to take me to the headmaster – I haven't been sorted yet," sighing she carried on, "makes me sound like a lolly or something. Ron mumbled something to Harry and smiled goodbye to Danielle, and walked into the Great Hall, he was starving. "Ok, this is going to sound really strange, but Harry – yes I know your name," she said after seeing Harry's face, "I need to meet you tonight, at about 10, at the Room of Requirements, its really important." She looked at him hopefully, with a pleading face. Harry nodded slowly and Danielle walked off.

After Harry worked out what was going on, he walked into the Great Hall, and sat down to dinner, after about 20 minutes he noticed Danielle walk in, and to his horror sit down at the Slytherin table, after Malfoy made room for her.

Malfoy smiled as he saw Danielle walking down to the Slytherin table. He saw her earlier talking to Potter, but he had a feeling she would be a Slytherin. Quickly he pushed Pansy down, making room for Danielle to sit. A plate appeared in the space on the table. Noticing a place, Danielle sat down, and looked to her left, Pansy was there and she wasn't looking too impressed, Danielle quickly looked to her right, and Malfoy was there. She had heard of him. She knew she couldn't get close to anyone while she was here, but Malfoy was just so damn hot. Grinning to herself, she looked him in the eye, and waited for a moment. "I'm Malfoy, Draco Malfoy," the blonde Slytherin said to her, pointing to the two guys next to him he quickly said "That's Crabbe and Goyle, don't worry to much about them... and you are?" he asked her, not bothering to respond to the look on Crabbe and Goyle's faces. "I'm Danielle," she said softly, "Danielle Reid" She smiled at him and turn around slightly to grab some food. She looked up, and noticed everyone looking at her. Eyebrows raised she smiled at them and went back to her dinner. 'Maybe this wasn't a good idea' she thought.
