A/N : I forgot to put the disclaimer in chapter 1 so here it is:

Disclaimer : I do not own Harry Potter or any of the other characters. I only own most of the plot and Melina. The other part of the plot comes from my best friend who helped me write this some. Thanks Beka.

Ch. 2 – Snape and Malfoy, both in One Day

Harry walked down to the common room the next morning to find the Gryffindors crowded around Melina looking at her scar.

"Morning Harry." Melina said, knowing he was there without even looking up from the Hogwarts, A History book she held in her hand.

"I didn't know you had a sister Harry." Neville said as Harry joined the table they were gathered around.

"Neither did I until yesterday." Harry said.

"Come on. We're going to miss breakfast if we don't leave now." Ron said, standing to his feet and slinging his bag over his shoulder.

"Yes, and if we miss breakfast we won't be able to eat until lunch, and that's a long way off." Hermione said, mimicking Ron's movements. They all agreed and with that they left for the Great hall. The fireplace that had been there the night before was gone. They sat down at the Gryffindor table and started eating.

"What class do we have first?" Melina asked in between bits of her pancakes.

"You, me and Ron have. . ." Harry paused as he pulled his schedule out of his bag and groaned. "Potions."

"Professor Snape is terrible. He's the head of the Slytherin house so he favors all the Slytherins. He hates Harry." Ron explained to Melina.

"I have Ancient Runes, then we all have 'defense against the dark arts'." Hermione said.

"We'd better get going. We don't want to give Snape an excuse to give us all detention." Ron said and Harry and Melina nodded. They said good-bye to Hermione and some of the others and headed out of the Great hall with Neville, Seamus and Dean and down to the dungeons where Snapes class was.

"I already met Snape. He was at the house when Remus brought me here. He's a very grumpy person isn't he?" Melina whispered to Harry as they sat down.

"Oh yeah." Harry answered just before Snape entered the room. Snape being Snape, pretended he didn't know Melina and attempted to hex the scar off her forehead. Both Her and Harry yelped in pain and put their hand on their foreheads.

"That hurt!" They spoke in unison.

"You two will stay after class." Snape said before turning and beginning the lesson. Several Slytherins were sniggering and the other Gryffindors were glaring at Snapes back.

By the end of the class Gryffindor had lost thirty points and Slytherin had gained thirty. Harry and Melina remained in their seats as the rest of their classmates poured out of the room.

"So, how are you enjoying your first day, Ms. Potter?" Snape asked in a sarcastic tone.

"It's been rather painful so far. Did you really have to do that?" Melina asked scowling and rubbing her head.

"I'm not supposed to know you. None of the teachers are suppose to know you. Besides, I believe my students found it humorous." Snape told her.

"You just better hope I don't tell Remus." Melina said in a tone Harry believed sounded very much likes Snapes menacing one.

"What are you going to do; send your dog after me?" The older wizard teased.

"Perhaps. Come Harry. We don't want to miss Remus's lesson. Good day professor." Melina said standing to her feet and dragging Harry out of the room after her.

"You do know you just got him in a really bad mood, right?" Harry asked as they hurried down the halls toward the DADA room.

"From the first moment I met that man, he's done nothing but bait me. He's trying to get me to snap so he can give me detention or something. I'm someone you'd know as a bottler. I bottle up all my anger. I know that's probably not very healthy, but if I ever get really mad, which has only happened once, you'll know." Melina said.

"How will I know?" Harry asked carefully as they stopped in front of the classroom door.

"It'll take months to sort out what hex I used." Melina said before she opened the door and they entered the room.

"How nice of you two to finally join us. Take your seats." Remus said, gesturing to two empty seats.


All the fifth years loved that Remus was back. Well, all except the Slytherins of course. The only ones who really knew he was Melina's guardian were Harry, Hermione and the Weasley's. It was best if it was kept that way as long as possible, just so none of the students thought he was favoring her. After they had all their classes, Harry decided to introduce Melina to Hagrid, since 'care of magical creatures' wasn't until Thursday.

"Do you guys want to come?" Harry asked Ron and Hermione, who agreed ecstatically.

"Ms. Potter?" A voice called behind them before they reached the main doors.

"Yes professor Lupin?" Melina said upon turning and seeing Remus. There were other students in the hall so she couldn't exactly call him by his first name.

"I'm wondering if I might have a word." Remus said.

"You guys go ahead. I'll see you later at the feast." She told her brother and friends. They nodded and said good-bye and Melina turned back to her surrogate father. "May I help you?" She asked sweetly.

"Sorry to take you away from your brother and new friends but I'd like to talk to you." Remus said as he gestured for her to walk with him to his office.

"You are talking to me." She said as she sat down across from him at his desk. Before Remus could respond, Snape walked in without knocking, carrying a large goblet.

"Here is your potion Lupin." He said setting it on the desk. Melina leaned forward and smelled it. She leaned back with her nose scrunched up.

"I hate the smell of that stuff." She said rubbing her nose, as if trying to rub the smell out.

"Your not the one who has to drink it." Remus said to her before returning his attention back to Snape. "I forgot to tell you, you didn't need to make it."

"What, were you planning to change and reek havoc on the students? Again?" Snape asked, smirking menacingly.

"Actually, Melina has already made it for me." Remus said gesturing to the fifteen-yr-old in front of him.

"What?" Snape asked, his smirk melting into a frown.

"Well, I do live with the man professor. It's only natural I would know how to make it. Or did you forget?" Melina asked in an innocent tone. Snape glared at her for a moment before turning on his heel and walking out of the room. "You wanted to talk to me?"

"You're baiting him." Remus said.

"He baits me, so it's only fair that I do it back." She told him.

"Do you know how I became your guardian?" Remus asked ignoring her comment as he leaned forward in his seat.

"No. I never asked so you never told me. How?" Melina asked.

"I found you. While Dumbledore was making sure Harry was safe I was making sure you were safe. Harry was in greater need than you but I knew that the bond you two have would do something. And sure enough, I found you in your mothers parents home with that scar. I knew that even though I was, and still am, a werewolf, I could take care of you. I left you with someone once every month until you were old enough to go to school and take care of yourself." Lupin explained. "I think you're more like you godfather than you know. Even though you only met him a few times; it only takes once for Sirius to rub off on someone. Now we better hurry or we'll miss the feast." He stood and pulled her to her feet and together they headed to the Great hall. It seemed to Melina, as Remus walked her to the Gryffindor table, that almost everyone was looking at her.

"Ignore the stares. They'll stop soon enough." Remus told her, also noticing the looks. He bent and kissed her forehead in one unconscious movement. Melina grinned and shook her head and sat down next to Fred, seeing as Harry, Ron and Hermione hadn't gotten back from Hagrids yet.

"What are you? The 'defense against the dark arts' teachers pet?" Melina turned to see three Slytherins standing behind her.

"Who's asking?" She said turning all the way around in her seat to face him. "Wait don't tell me. Platinum blond hair. Tall. Slytherin. You must be a Malfoy." She concluded and he smirked, his arms crossing in front of him.

"So you've heard of us?" Draco said, looking at his two "friends", Crabbe and Goyle. Melina looked him up and down before answering.

"Nothing good." She said and he frowned.

"How dare you speak to me like that." Draco said, his arms dropping to his sides. Melina rose to her feet and stood in front of him. She was a good three and a half inches shorter than him but her attitude was much different.

"I will speak to you in whatever manner I see fit." She glared up at him. Remus started to stand from his seat at the teacher's table but Dumbledore stopped him.

"If their wands are drawn we will stop them." The headmaster told him as three more students approached them.

"Leave her alone Malfoy." Draco looked to the side to see Harry, Ron and Hermione.

"I was wondering when you were going to show up to protect your new girlfriend, Potter." Draco sneered. Melina laughed sarcastically.

"I'm not his girlfriend. I happen to be his sister." Draco's head whipped back to her and he scowled even more.

"What?" He asked, sounding almost as surprised as Harry did when Dumbledore told him. Melina moved her hair back and Draco looked from Her to Harry and back to her. He finally saw it. The hair, the eyes and, of course, the scar. "Oh. Well, I guess you're stuck with Granger then Potter." He said, smirk back in place.

"Even if Hermione was my girlfriend, I wouldn't consider it being stuck. Now go away." Harry said as he moved to sit down. Melina glared at Draco a moment longer before she, too, sat and Hermione and Ron went around the table and sat on the other side. Draco made an annoyed sound and left with Crabbe and Goyle to the Slytherin table.

"Thanks Harry." Hermione said after the three Slytherins had left.

"Any time Hermione." Harry said as Dumbledore clapped his hands and the food appeared.
OK. There you have it. Chapter 2. I know it's not very long but let me know how you like it so far. R/R
