Pirate Blood
Chapter 3
Slytherin? Gryffindor? Hermione knew Chris Before?
(Okay I thought you might want something to happen so I decided to just get to it. Harry spent everyday of his vacation just hanging out with Chris. They are friends now. In Diagon Alley he introduced her to Ron and Hermione and Ginny. They are all friends now. They have now just arrived on the train at Hogwarts.)
Disclaimer: I own Chris. That's it...for now.
"Are you nervous?" Hermione asked Chris.
"A little bit." Hermione and Chris had become quick friends when Harry introduced them. That was probably because Hermione didn't have many girls to hang out with. Chris never had many girls to hang around either cause most of her friends at her old school were guys, or so she said.
"Don't worry the only house that you don't want to get into is Slytherin. Hufflepuff is fine. Ravenclaw is good. Gryffindor is the best." Ron said.
"Well you don't have anything to worry about Chris. Only evil pureblooded gits get into Slytherin. You can't get in." Harry reassured her.
At the sorting...
Chris was up front with the first years. McGonagall had given a beginning of the year speech and told everyone that Chris is a transfer student from Massachusetts. McGonagall called "Christine Turner."
Chris sat on the stool as the hat was put onto her head. 'A pirate? Heir of Jack Sparrow. Interesting. Slytherin would fit a pirate.'
'NO!' Chris thought 'I don't want to be in Slytherin. I am half blooded and I am not evil. Jack Sparrow was one of my ancestors, big deal. I do not belong in Slytherin.'
'It wouldn't be the first time a half blood was accepted into Slytherin. And Pirates belong in Slytherin.'
'Well not this one you idiot. I am anything but evil so you better not put me in Slytherin or else I will tear you to shreds.'
'Oh, but you've already made friends with a slytherin. Draco Malfoy. Remember him? It would be so nice if you–"
'Maybe you didn't listen. I DON'T WANT TO BE IN SLYTHERIN DAMN IT! DRACO MALFOY CAN BURN IN HELL ALONG WITH YOU! PUT ME INTO ANYWHERE BUT SLYTHERIN!'
'Fine, I guess this will all work out with the plan.'
'What plan?'
"GRYFFINDOR!" The hat shouted. Chris smiled and decided to ignore what the hat said.
The Gryffindor table applauded as she went to sit down with the trio. Hermione, Harry, and Ron congratulated her. All the first years were sorted and then the feast began. During the feast Ron said "That's Draco Malfoy. You don't want to get involved with him. He is a jackass. He hates anyone who isn't in Slytherin. He is a rich prat."
"Hermione slapped him in our third year." Harry said. Hermione and Chris did some sort of handshake.
"What the bloody hell was that?" Ron asked.
Hermione ignored Ron's question. "He had it coming. Professor Moody, one of the old DADA teachers, turned him into a ferret. That is why we call him ferret or ferret face or Draco the Amazing Bouncing Ferret or any phrase that has ferret in it." Hermione said.
Chris let out a small laugh. "I don't believe you didn't tell either of them, Hermione."
"Well, I guess it slipped my mind." Hermione answered.
"Would anyone mind telling me what the bloody hell you two are talking about?" Ron once again asked. Harry also looked confused.
"Chris and I met about two years ago during summer holidays. The same place Harry met her. I got a summer job sailing with Chris and we worked together a lot. We kept in touch after I left too. So we have been friends for a little over two years now." Hermione explained.
"How did you manage to forget to tell me and Harry that bit of information?" Ron asked. Hermione shrugged and took a sip of her pumpkin juice.
"That explains how you managed to become best friends the first day I 'introduced' her to you." Harry said.
"You still should have told us earlier." Ron said.
"Why should I have told you earlier? Why would it matter?" Hermione asked.
"It's doesn't. I just think that you should have told us." Ron said.
"Well maybe it didn't occur to you that I don't tell you every single detail of my life." Hermione snapped.
"I think that someone other than Draco is going to get slapped tonight." Chris said to Harry. Harry nodded his head. They both received glares from Hermione and Ron. "Well you are going to get comments like that when you fight like this." Chris said. Hermione and Ron decided not to talk to each other for the rest of the feast. As the feast ended, everyone left for their dormitories. As they were leaving Chris asked Harry "Do they usually do this?"
Harry nodded his head "They'll be talking again by tomorrow morning."
They all entered the common room. Hermione stomped off to her dormitory. Chris said "I think I'll go make sure that she is okay. Night."
"Night" Harry and Ron said in unison.
