Severus remembered the boy's mother, Nancy Sanchez.
The lying, cheating, scheming, little...
He swore under his breath, he had a very good idea of what she was, but he had better things to do than sit around silently dissing the little cow.
The feast ended and Pax saw a boy with blonde sliked back hair lead out the first years and head down to the dungeons. He followed.
"Hurry up first years I haven't got all night!" he shouted back at the kids trailing behind him who jumped and quickened their pace.
When they got down to the dungeons they made their way along several passageways, Pax made a mental note to construct some sort of map to help him remember his way, then they reached the end of the passage and found a large empty space of wall in between two large burning torches.
"Polyjuice," said the blonde boy.
The bricks in the wall began to move aside and they soon constructed a doorway that the first years were marvelling at.
"Are you gonna go in or wot?" demanded the blonde boy standing next to the entrance.
The first years scurried in and Pax followed them, the blonde boy studied him closely as he passed and Pax glared back at him.
"What are you looking at" he snarled at him them walked into the common room.
Later on he was sitting on his bed unpacking, his photographs and his portable mirror, he also had several eye-liner pencils in shades of black, brown, dark blue and purple but he kept them hidden in a small tin with his other sets of ear studs, he didn't want anyone thinking he was some kind of transvestite with all the make-up and earrings he had.
He put the tin on his bedside table with his photos.
The photos were of his mother, and of his sister who was now dead.
She had given him his most treasured possession, as she lay in the middle of the road, bleeding to death.
They were twins, identical in every way apart from the fact that she was taller than him.
The thing she had given him was a large silver crucifix on a chain with a large sapphire set into the middle.
She had given this to him and made him swear on his own life that he would someday find their father and make him remember them.
"I've found him Serena," he whispered, "And he will remember us."
