Me own nothing, me hungry


CHAPTER 8

"I want to go NOW!" Tina said as soon as Dumbledore had apparated back into his study.

"You can't go to Hogwarts now"

"Why not? It's the only place that he can't summon me, and I don't want to face him again!"

"Tina, you have to explain everything to Harry on the train, I've already told him that you would save them a compartment"

"Them? Who is them?"

"Harry, Ron, and Hermione"

"No, I'm not explaining anything to a mudblood and a, dare I say it, Weasly!"

Dumbledore sighed and counted to ten in his head. I can't help her upbringing.

"Please don't call Hermione that"

"But, she is-"

"DON'T CALL HER THAT!" He shouted.

"Ok, ok" She answered, just a bit scared, "But I want to go now!"

"No!"

"Aaaaargh!!!" She screamed in a frustrated way and apparated out.


Harry, Ron and Hermione were walking down the train, looking onto each compartment for Tina.

"Finally, I've been waiting!" She said as they walked in.

"Doesn't make a very good first impression, does she?" Ron whispered to Hermione. Hermione giggled.

"Hello again" Harry said, "This is Ron and Hermione"

Hermione stuck out her hand for Tina to shake, but Tina just glared at her.

"Ok, lets make this quick, I've got someone to see before this train stops"

"Alright" Harry said, "What about the-"

"Shut it, I'm talking."

"Ok" Harry said, quite offended.

"Ok, my full name is Christina Claire Paige, when I was two years old; Voldemort killed my parents, and branded me."

"Branded you?" Hermione asked. Tina stuck out her right arm and pulled up her sleeve, "The dark mark, see!?" She said, rather sharply.

"Oh"

"He decided not to kill me and sent me to live with the Malfoys."

"The Malfoys?!"

"Yes, that's what I said, Weasly!"

"Well, sorry!"

Tina stood up, "You have no right to talk to me like that, Weasly, You may be pureblood, but you are no better than her!" She pointed to Hermione, "Now, do you want an explanation or what? Because, like I said before, I HAVE BETTER THINGS TO DO!!!"

"Tina, calm down" Harry grabbed her arm and pulled her back down.

"Alright, as I was saying before I was RUDELY interrupted, I went to live with the Malfoys who raised me like their own. I became best friends with my step-brother, Draco. When I was ten years old, Dumbledore somehow found out about me being alive. Although I don't know why it was so important. Anyways, He came to my house one night and put a memory charm on my step-parents and Draco, but something went wrong with Draco and he remembered everything. So Dumbledore sent me to Bauxbatons, so Draco wouldn't see me. But during the summer, Voldemort summoned me for the first time. He asked me to join him, since he was quite aware of what had happened over the last five years. I didn't want to, I'm not evil."

"That's a laugh" Ron said. Tina turned to him.

"Shut up!" He did, "So, he made me this promise-"

"Immortality" Harry interrupted.

"Yes. I said that I would think about it, and then I went to Dumbledore and told him what had happened. He told me to keep saying that I was thinking about joining the dark side. Then he switched me to Hogwarts, the only place that I couldn't be summoned. So here I am."

"What about the fire?" Harry asked.

"What fire?"

"The one that you made."

"Oh, that. That's probably the reason that all of this happened. When I'm mad or scared, a little fire starts, and it usually drains out my strength, like this" She snapped her fingers and a small fire started at her fingertips, "blow it out" Harry blew it out. "You see, I can't really control it anymore than that, if I had blown, I would have made it stronger, besides, now I've lost about half of my strength, just from that. That's how I almost died last night, that ring of fire; I wouldn't do anything like that if I had had any control."

"Umm, so, anyway, I should get going" She said, "come on Sun!"

A strange animal jumped down from the luggage rack. The trio hadn't noticed it before. It was a hybrid animal, with the head of a fox, chest of a greyhound, talons of an eagle, body of a lion, and the hind legs and tail of a wolf.

"Whoa!" Ron said, "What's that!?"

"Honestly, you haven't seen an Enfield before?!" She said before walking out of the compartment, Sun following. Harry ran out and stopped her in the hall. Silently closing the compartment door behind him.

"You're going to see Malfoys, aren't you?"

"What does it matter if I am going to see Draco? Why do you care? He is my step – brother!" She walked off down the hall.


Tina walked toward Draco's compartment. She knocked on the door. Draco stood up and opened it.

"Tina!" He shouted and took her into his arms, "Where have you been, I missed you!"

Tina hugged him back, "I've been at Bauxbatons, can I come in?"

"Yeah, sure" He said, he put his arm around her shoulder and led her to the seat next to him. Sun jumped into the luggage rack, "So, where have you been?"

"Ok, remember that night………….
