She called Hermione's name and a few other kids after. Finally, She called Christina Laurens. I was terrified but I remained calm as the hat was put on my head. I heard a voice in my head saying hmm very tricky. Got an attitude like your father's slytherin could do you well but you have the heart of your mother. Gryffindor could also be a good fit. What do you think? I thought for a moment, which the hat then said you don't want to turn out like your father ey, well I know the perfect fit for you. He shouted for everyone to hear, Gryffindor! I looked at Draco, who mouthed father isn't gonna like that, I mouthed back, I know. A few more names were called and then I heard Draco Malfoy. He walked up and before the hat was even put on his head the hat shouted Slytherin he smirked and then winked at me. I laughed and waited as more names were called. Harry Potter Professor Mcgonagall called, the hat took a moment then yelled Gryffindor. Ron was called and then the hat said ah, another weasley I know just what to do with you, Gryffindor! I smiled and he sat next to me. Crabbe and Goyle were both placed into slytherin with Draco and Neville was in Gryffindor with Harry, Ron, Hermione, and I. Suzane Bones was called and she was put in Hufflepuff. The Luna Love good who was put in Ravenclaw. Thank You professor said a rather small man with a long grey beard. Welcome to a new year at Hogwarts! Before we begin our banquet, I would like to say a few words. And here they are: Nitwit! Blubber! I chuckled a little. Fred looked at me and said he's gone mad I tell ya, but he is the best wizard alive and will protect us at all costs. George then said that's why he's the headmaster, best fighting wizard alive. Suddenly food appeared in front of us. Harry and Hermione's eyes nearly came out of their heads; they were so shocked. I laughed and we began eating. A while after we had started eating a ghost popped out of the table it made us first years jump. The boy I recognized as Percy said hi Sir Nicholas have a nice summer? Sir Nickolas then said dismal. Once again my request to join The Headless Hunt has been denied. Ron looked at him as he was going away, I know you, you're nearly headless Nick. Nick turned around and said I prefer Sir Nickolas if you don't mind. Nearly headless how can you be nearly headless hermione asked. Like this he said pulling his head off the side. Ron screamed and while jumping grabbed my hand. That made me blush a little but I looked at Hermione who was looking like she never should've asked. I laughed and looked back at draco who to my surprise was looking at me. I mouthed you ok? Yeah I'm fine but why did the weasley boy grab your hand like that? He got scared of Sir Headless Nick; it was reflexes. He laughed under his breath, meet me in the hall. Percy who was a prefect saw me talking to Draco and said why are you talking to that Slytherin boy. I laughed and said who draco? Ron, Hermione, and Harry all started laughing too. What's so funny? That's my brother do you think I can go speak to him in the hallway for a moment. Of course you don't have to ask me about that, he said laughing a little. The twins looked surprised when he laughed and they stopped me before I walked out. You're a miracle worker, said George. He hasn't laughed in ages. I can't even remember him the last time he laughed, said Fred. All I asked was if I could talk to my brother in the hall. They said well we need tips on what you think will make him laugh later. I laughed and said ok. When I got out in the hall Draco said, you know what father is gonna do right? No, what do you mean Draco? He is gonna be really upset since you're not in slytherin. I looked at him and said my mother was in Gryffindor and I don't wanna be like my dad so I'm kind of grateful for it. Just then Mr. Malfoy appeared in the hallway. So children, how was the ceremony? I said it was great. He looked at me and said so your both in Slytherin? Draco looked at his feet and I said well no. He looked at Draco and said you did make slytherin Draco? He shook his head. So where did you get placed then Christina he said looking at me furious. I looked at him and said Gryffindor. He was so angry at this point and said well have you made any friends? I smiled and said yes actually I have. Who? Ron Weasley I said looking up at him who was reaching for his wand, Hemione Granger, he knew she was muggle born so he pointed his wand in my face about to shout at me, and Harry Potter I said quickly. He was still pointing his wand at me, he opened his mouth and said avada kadv when Percy came to check on me. Seeing Lucious he said I was just checking up on you but I'll leave I ran over grabbing his arm and whispered please help. Mr. Malfoy glared and Draco was about to cry. Percy said all first years need to be back in the great hall so I will take them back in. Mr. Malfoy said Weasley I suggest you respect me in understanding that I am talking to my children. Draco ran and stood next to me grabbing my hand. He looked at Draco holding my hand and he looked like he was gonna kill us. He said you know what actually that's alright Weasley you can hear this too. All of your stuff from the manor will be delivered to your dorm tonight; do not come home at the end of the semester; you are no longer welcome in the Malfoy home. He looked at Draco and said you are to no longer speak to her. Draco for the first time in his life spoke back to his dad, she is my sister. I will speak to her. He looked at Draco and said Fine speak only to her but not any of her little friends. He looked back at me and said you're such a disappointment imagine what your biological father would think of you. He should've killed you when he killed your mom and then apparated away. I started crying and Percy pulled me into a hug. I am so sorry do not listen to him he doesn't know what he is talking about. I'm sure you will be able to go home by christmas. I hugged Draco and said no matter what you will always be my brother. He looked at me and said always. We walked back in with Percy and I was crying still. Ron stood up and walked over to us thinking Draco had done something to me. I looked at him and said it wasn't Draco, I will tell you about it later. Draco gave me a hug before sitting down again. I didn't eat anymore after that I just sat there. Ron grabbed my hand underneath the table and stayed holding it till all of the first years followed the prefects to the common room. We followed Percy until we got to the common room where there was a portrait of a fat woman who said Password? Percy answered Caput Draconis. I went up to my dormitory and told Ron to meet me back in the common room in 15 minutes that I would tell him what happened. I went up and grabbed my kitten. When I got in there sure enough all my stuff from home was there. Hermione asked why I brought everything. I looked at her and said I didn't, I got kicked out of the Malfoys for being in

Gryffindor. She said so that's why you were crying. Yes I said because I have nowhere to go. I have to go to the common room. I took Angel down to the common room with me. I let her play around while Ron and I talked. I told him what happened and he got out a piece of parchment. What are you doing? Writing to mum you're moving in with us starting next summer and I don't wanna hear anything about it. I looked at him smiling and said thankyou. He looked back and said that's what friends are for. I said there is also something you should know. Yes? My biological father is Voldemort. Ron looked at me and said you are nothing like him and I trust you. We laid on the floor playin with Angel until we got tired. So much for what could possibly go wrong this year.
