Chapter 5 – the ride
They landed at kings cross with a familiar jolt as their feet hit the ground and their knees buckled. They quickly picked themselves up and found an empty carriage stowed their stuff and waited. After about 5 minutes Ron and Hermione disappeared to the prefect's carriage. In about 15 minutes they herd the 10 minute warning whistle and Neville Longbottom pocked his head around the door and asked if he could sit here "sure" Harry replied as he sat down he asked "who are you?" "Neville" Ginny hissed "I'm Camellia Evans" Camellia said a faint smile playing on her face " oh you're the girl that was on the list for ages and a place just opened up for you, my gran told me" "so what house do you want to be in?" "I'm in Gryffindor, I was sorted about a moth ago" "oh, welcome" Neville said the rest of the journey passed in no time. The trolley came around and they gouged themselves on lollies and Ron and Hermione popped in from tine to time (Ron muttering "why couldn't some other prefects babysit the first years") it grew dark, they put on their robes and the train slowed. They herd Hagrid saying "first years over here" and they made their way up to the carriages "damn there ugly" Camellia said when she saw the theasels (A/N: sorry I lost my OoTP book so I couldn't check the spelling) "oh who'd you see die?" Neville asked "oh, ah, my parents it was a car crash." "Oh sorry" Neville mumbled "that's ok."
The ride up to the castle was a smooth one. They went into the entrance hall and were heading for the great hall when they were stoped by none other than Draco Malfoy and his cronies. "Potter" "parents still dead?" he sneered "father still in Azkaban, Malfoy?" Harry retorted, slipping his arm through Camellia's protectively (she had appeared at his side when she saw Malfoy coming) Malfoy saw this gesture and was now focusing all his attention on this girl that he had never seen before. She intrigued him. Those eyes, he thought I have never seen eyes like her's before, and her hair the way it complements her features. She's beautiful, she's powerful too she was talking about her patronus with the mudblood when she walked in, a winged unicorn. God I hope she's in Slytherin It left him dazed. His face glazed over as he stared at her. It made Camellia uneasy Harry felt her body tense next to him, luckily professor McGonagall entered the hall and said you may come in now. They quickly entered and sat at the Gryffindor table. Draco's hart sank. After the sorting Professor Dumbledore stood up and started to speak "first years please not that the dark forest is strictly forbidden and our caretaker Mr Filch as asked me to inform you that all Weasleys Wizard Weaseys products are also forbidden (lee Gordon looked outraged at this) and now to the last order of business before the feast can begin. Many of you Gryffindor's will have noticed a new face among you and no I'm not referring to the first years. Her name is Camellia Evans. Her name has been on the list for some time now and a place has just opened up for her. She has already been sorted into Gryffindor. A word of warning (he was looking directly at the Slytherin table) do not pick a duel with her, as her many years of travel have made her a talented duellist.(Camellia went deathly pale) I know for a fact that she has taken on 3 death-eaters and only one survived and currently resides in Azkaban Prison. So Draco thought not only is she beautiful and powerful she doesn't like death-eaters, the scum, imagine bowing to a mudblood like riddle, I think I can make an exception to my not dating Gryffindor's rule…
