Prologue:
It was four o'clock in the morning. Moonlight shone through an uncovered window in the Slytherin girls' dormitory where every thing seemed normal except for one thing: in the first years room one bed was empty; one girl was missing: a girl who called herself Ursedonah. Not many knew of this name; most called her by a different name: Rhonda Bond. This was the name that the teachers called. It was the name she wrote on papers. It was her original name.
Beneath the castle a girl's voice cried out, "Thsssiiiiah hhhasssiiy heth!" It was a strange sound, sort of like hissing, but it could mean only one thing: Slytherin's heiress had come.
Chapter 1
"Wake up, we're gonna be late for class!" Ursedonah slowly opened her eyes. In front of her was her roommate, Marissa. Marissa had black wavy hair and dark skin. She wore braces and way too much lip gloss than any eleven-year-old should wear.
"Leave me alone," Ursedonah replied sleepily, "I was up all night!"
"You're exaggerating, what could you possibly be doing all night?" demanded Marissa.
"Wouldn't you like to know."
"Okay. I don't really care. See you in potions." Responded Marissa with disappointment. The watch in Ursedonah's backpack beeped.
"Better hurry, class starts in ten minutes!" Ursedonah's other roommate Kristie declared as she hurried out of the room. Kristie had dirty-blonde wavy hair and loved black and red. She was a half-blood and lived with her muggle mother until she received her acceptance letter. She had put up posters of a metal band all over her wand and had no outstanding magical talent. She looked much different than Ursedonah who had dark brown hair that would never curl as hard as she used to try. Until she found out that she was a witch. She had extraordinary magical abilities; she was more powerful than anyone who had passed through Hogwarts in the past fifty years or more. Ursedonah looked at her with disgust before quickly dressing. How did I get stuck with this half-blood? She thought as she headed into the common room. There she saw Draco Malfoy conversing with Crabbe and Goyle. As soon as she entered, they stopped talking and looked at her. Pausing for only seconds, they continued talking. Ursedonah strolled slowly to potions. She knew who the professor was, and she also knew that she could tell him to do anything and he would.
Why, you may ask, is she so sure of this? It is because he is the only one in this school who knows the true extent of her powers. The door creaked open in the dungeons during the middle of potions.
The voice of Severus Snape boomed through the classroom, "You're late," he said without looking over to the door where Ursedonah stood.
"Oh, am I?" she replied menacingly.
"I'm sorry, I didn't know it was you Ur… I mean Rhonda!" he corrected quickly. "Umm… ten points to Slytherin for showing up today." He declared.
"You can loose the cheery voice, Severus."
The class gasped. No student ever called a teacher by their first name, and nobody would dare talk back to Prof. Snape like that.
"Yes… Well… where were we?" asked Snape.
"You were talking about truth potions before Rhonda came," replied one of the Gryffindor students.
"I didn't ask you." Snape shot back. The girl was too intimidated to protest.
"What is the name of the strongest truth potion ever made?" asked Snape in his usual, sneering voice. "Yes Miss Bond?"
"Veritasserum."
"Good job! Ten more points to Slytherin!" responded Snape.
"I thought I told you to drop the cheery voice Severus." Ursedonah said in a very annoyed voice.
"Well, I think that's a good place to stop. I expect two feet on Veritasserum by tomorrow," concluded Snape.
The class quickly picked up their books and hurried out.
