Slytherin Through and Through

Disclaimer: I still own as much as I did before. Actually I own one more thing, Kayla.

Authors Note: So what did you think of chapter one? It was short but I will try and make the chapters longer. Not much else to explain but if you have any questions just let me know and I'll try my best to answer them.

Chapter Two

Dumbledore's Office

"Ahh, Kayla and Ms. Black how wonderful for you to finally decide to come here." Dumbledore said shaking hands with Ms. Black and then Kayla.

"Yes well Kayla has decided that she wants to attend real school now." Ms. Black said taking a seat.

"How far along in her schooling is she?" Dumbledore asked.

"Just as far as any other fifth year."

"So she will fit right in then?"

"She should."

"Well Kayla lets try on the sorting hat and find out where you belong." Dumbledore went to his shelf and retrieved a shabby looking hat. "Just take a seat and I will place the hat on your head and it will tell us which house you should be in."

Kayla sat down and Dumbledore came over with the hat.

"What are you doing waking me already? I still have two days before the sorting ceremony." The hat said yawning.

Kayla eyed the hat wearily but allowed the headmaster to place it on her head.

"No doubt about it, this girl is Slytherin to the core. Now allow me to rest." With that the hat shut its brim mouth and silenced.

"Well a new Slytherin. I will have Professor Snape, Potion Master and Head of Slytherin house to take you to your dorm. You will be accompanied by your dorm mates in two days time. Just give me a moment." Dumbledore went over to the fire place and through in some powder and shouted, "Severus Snape" a head appeared in the flames and exchanged a few words with Dumbledore before coming out of the fire.

"Hello Kayla." Severus said looking Kayla up and down.

"Hello." Kayla replied solemnly.

"Ms. Black." Severus said with a nod of his head.

"Mr. Snape."

"Well now that we're all acquainted, Severus will you please show Kayla to the Slytherin common room and explain the rules and regulations of the school? I need to have a few brief words with Ms. Black before she leaves."

"Certainly Albus." Severus said curtly.

"Bye mom, I'll see you at Christmas." Kayla said before turning and leaving the office, her trunk still with her mother.

Severus followed her. "Don't you need your trunk?" He questioned.

"Someone will bring it for me." She replied without turning around. "So where am I going?"

Severus walked up beside her. "This way." He turned her down a deserted corridor. "You should know that we accept no crap in this school." He said bluntly.

"Neither do I. Don't judge a book by its cover. It might turn around and bite you in the ass. Right or left?"

"Left. What do you mean don't judge a book by its cover? I haven't judged anything."

"I saw the way you looked me over when you first arrived. Just because I've got the big blue eyes and bright blonde hair don't me I haven't got a nasty inside. And by the way I know more about you than you know about me." Kayla said stopping in front of a portrait of an old man sitting in front of a stern looking woman. "What's the password?"

"How do you know this is where the common room is?"

"Because I'm smart. And because daddy told me what the portrait was to the common room before I came."

"Really? And Who would your 'Daddy' be?"

"Wouldn't you like to know? You know him more than you think you do and betrayed him. The damage I could do if I told daddy all I know." Kayla shook her head as if imagining the havoc her dad could cause.

"Do you always talk so vague like that?"

"Do you always ask so many questions?"

"Defiantly a Slytherin, aren't we? The password is pureblood."

"Through and through. I'll see you later Snape. Pureblood."

The portrait opened and Kayla walked herself inside. Snape followed.

"Still here? What do you want?"

"To know what you know about me, who your dad is, and if your mom is related to Sirius Black."

"I know all your dark secrets. You'll never hear it from me. And I have never heard of a Sirius Black. Anything else?"

"What dark secrets? And how do you know?"

"All of them, and I'm not stupid enough to tell you that. If you want stupid I'd go talk to Crabbe and Goyle's sons. I've heard they are fairly on the dense side to put it gently." "I know you're not stupid and I know they are, but wait, how do you know them? You've never been here before."

"We all have our secrets don't we. Some of us just know how to keep them secret. Why do you care?"

"Because you are really starting to sound like a man I used to know."

"I'm probably more like that man than you think. Now I have enjoyed this question and answer period but I'm afraid times up. I need to go exploring the castle. Find where everything is you know? Please make sure that my stuff is brought by four, daddy wouldn't be please to hear that his baby is being mistreated. And daddy is almost as scary as me." With a smirk Kayla left the common room and began exploring.

Kayla walked around aimlessly for a few minutes before running into a stern looking witch.

"May I ask what you are doing here?" The witch asked.

"I am Kayla Black. I just transferred here out of home schooling. I am a fifth year and Slytherins newest student. I am exploring the school. And you would be?" Kayla asked sickening sweetly.

"I am Professor McGonagal, Transfiguration teacher and Head of Griffindor house. Is there anything I can help you with?"

"Yes actually, where can I find the Great Hall? I'm supposed to meet Professor Dumbledore there in fifteen minutes and I haven't a clue where I'm going." Kayla said acting innocent. She thought that sucking up to this teacher would defiantly be a good thing to do.

"I'm on my way to the Great Hall myself, I'll accompany you there if you'd like."

"That would be fantastic. So how long have you been teaching here?" Kayla asked trying to start a conversation.

Professor McGonagal was slightly taken aback, no student had ever asked her about herself before. She was starting to warm up to this girl, even if she was a Slytherin.

"I have been teaching for twenty-two years."

"No way. Your lying right? Did you graduate early or something because you can't be older that thirty. Maybe thirty-five at the oldest."

"No I'm not that young anymore."

"I don't believe you. I refuse to believe you are a day older that thirty- five."

"Oh I am older than that let me tell you."

"Well that's too bad for you. Through my eyes you are thirty-four and a half. Do you have any kids?"

"Yes, one. He's twenty-two. I went and visited him in the U.S. this break. His wife is pregnant, so I'm going to be a grandmother soon. I'm so excited."

"That is so cool! I cant wait to have kids and a husband. Those are going to be the best times of my life." "Nah wait for those days. Enjoy your carefree days because soon they wont be carefree anymore."

"Sure they will, my daddy will support me."

"But do you really want to rely on someone your whole life? What's going to happen when he's gone?"

"I dunno. Maybe he'll find an immortality potion or something and never die."

"We can all dream cant we? Here we are and it seems we have just made it in time." McGonagal smiled as she sat between Albus and Severus at the table.

There were plenty of other teachers at the table that Kayla got introduced to. She took a seat next to Professor Snape and Professor Sinstra the Astronomy teacher.

"Now Kayla, do you understand the way the school works?" Professor Sinstra asked.

"Mostly, I still don't get how quidditch ties in with the house cup and about the anti-apparation fields." Kayla said trying to find out where the nearest apparation point was.

"Well for the quidditch, if you win a match the amount you win by gets added to your house points. As for the apparation, you cant apparate inside Hogwarts ground." Professor Flitwick answered. He had been listening to the conversation.

"Where is the closest apparation points? Hogsmeade?" Kayla asked.

"Yes it is. Hogsmeade is the closest all wizarding town to Hogwarts."

"But isn't that unsafe? Having apparation so close to the school. Especially with Voldemort on the high-rise."

"Yes it can be. But what about all the people who aren't you know who?" Flitwick argued.

"Afraid of the name? It just creates unneeded fear. And what about all the ones who aren't? They will be the innocent bystanders who die because they were there." Kayla challenged.

"I am not afraid of the name, I just don't want to be disrespectful to those who are. People will die on the downfall of Voldemort, but it will be worth it to save the future generations do you not think?"

"Will there ever be a downfall? They've been after him for what fourteen, fifteen years?"

"A downfall will happen we just don't know when. Fourteen years. Treacle tart?"

"No thank-you. I think I will excuse myself and learn my way around the castle a bit better. Good evening Professors." With a nod Kayla left the table and the Great Hall.
