Chapter 4 Slytherin Blood

September first arrived and Ava had all her supplies, most of her wardrobe and had bought a silver winged falcon to carry her mail. They were at platform nine and three quarters.

Ava stood at Draco´s side as they boarded the train. Draco held onto Ava's hand as he led her to the Slytherin compartments. When they got there several were already full and people poked their heads out as they saw Draco and Ava pass.

Draco pulled open a compartment door and inside was his two troll bodyguards, Crabbe and Goyle. Also next to them were the two Slytherin playgirls, Blaze and Pansy.

"Draco!" the girl's chorused together.

Blaze saw Ava standing in the doorway and thought her another student.

"This compartment is full, so go find another one." Blaze snapped.

Ava's eyes flashed and she made a move to get at her. Draco stepped into her path and shielded Blaze.

"Forgive her Ava she doesn't know who you are yet." Draco whispered.

Ava calmed and held onto Draco's hand once more.

"Everyone this is Ava Ravel." Draco introduced.

"So... what?" Pansy asked curiously looking at Draco and Ava's entangled hands.

Draco closed the compartment door and with a wave of his wand sound proofed it.

"Ava's real last name is Riddle. Ring any bells?" Draco asked sarcastically.

The girls gasped and the trolls just looked confused. Draco sighed. "Ava's the dark lord's daughter.

"Ohh!" Goyle gasped.

"Sorry Ava about what I said before. I didn't know." Blaze said shamefully.

"It's o.k. Just don't tell anyone. Daddy said to keep it a secret."

They all nodded their heads in agreement.

"Ava we should go get Nacil. (Nacil is her silver winged falcon)" Draco commented.

They walked out of the compartment and felt a jolt. Ava fell against Draco as the train started. This happened just as the dream team came out of their compartment.

Ron looked absolutely disgusted, Hermione looked away as fast as she possible could and Scar head just stared.

"What you looking at Potter?" Draco snapped and helped Ava stand again.

Ava looked over at Harry and a shadow passed over her face.

~So this is the bastard that almost killed daddy. Yuck he is so ugly! I don't get how anyone could like this freak! Draco is so much better looking then he is. ~

Draco grabbed Ava's hand and pushed past them. Harry and Ava's eyes met. Then they disappeared from view.

"Well that was odd." Hermione commented.

"Who was that girl? I've never seen her before." Ron questioned.

"I don't know, but she looks somewhat familiar. But how?" Harry looked at Hermione who shrugged.

"Doesn't matter. We'll find out eventually at school. If she's Malfoy's new girlfriend then we'll see a lot of her anyway." Ron answered.

"Still, I wish I knew why she looked so familiar." Harry complained.

"Draco do you think he noticed?" Ava asked as they got back to their compartment.

"Who?"

"Potter. Do you think he noticed my resemblance to daddy?"

"Doubt it. Potter wouldn't even notice if you had a sign above your head saying DRAK LORD'S DAUGHTER. He's that stupid Ava."

Ava giggled and sat down beside Blaze.

Ava stood in Dumbledor's office playing with her medallion around her neck.

"Ava Ravel is it?"

"Yes sir." Ava gagged inwardly at having to address the jackass so respectably.

"Well miss Ravel please have a seat on the stool over there."

Ava sat and waited. Dumbledor walked over and placed the sorting hat on her head.

The sorting had long since finished and she was now waiting to be exempted.

The sorting hat spoke. "Ahh! A girl with many secrets. Non are to pleasant are they Miss Ravel." The hat said with heavy sarcasm.

Ava thought to herself knowing the hat would hear the thought, ~ Shut it you stupid piece of cloth. My secrets were meant to stay secret. And you will no bring words to my thoughts. Now just tell me what house I'm to be in! ~

"Dumbledor, this girl defiantly has a sharp tongue. Do you really wish to accept a half demon into our school?"

Ava turned pale, as did Dumbledor. "Stupid hat!" Ava mumbled.

"Ava is their something you're not telling me?"

Ava stood up and pulled of her medallion. She handed it to Dumbledor, who examined it.

"This is a demon pendent."

"Yes, my mother was a demon woman. She gave this to me before she died. As long as I have it on I can't turn into a demon as much as I may want to."

"You wear this always?"

"Always," Ava stated simply.

"Then you will be sorted no matter what anyone may say. But lets keep it secret for now alright?"

Ava nodded and placed the hat back on her head. "You are brave, stubborn, loyal to those who may win your friendship, a brain in which I have not seen since our Hermione Granger, Dumbledor. But you will not do well in Hufflepuff or Ravenclaw, so you shall be Slytherin." The hat announced.
