I don't own Harry Potter or any of the characters in that universe with the exception of Angela Jade Frost. Not that I have the money if someone decided to sue me, being a poor college student.

Note, this takes place after Order of the Phoenix but it ignores The Half Blood Prince, in other words, this is Harry's 6th year.


Harry and Ron reached the tower entrance just in time to hear one of the 4th years speak the password of Phoenix before entering. Climbing through the portal they found Hermione speaking with Angela by the fireplace as several other house members looked on as if waiting their turn. Hermione smiled quickly and handed her a book, clutching another one in her arms as she ran upstairs to the girls dormitory.

"Wonder what that was all about. C'mon Harry, lets head upstairs, we've got Potions in the morning." His voice dripping with venom. Harry glanced once more towards Angela who was quietly answering questions for the other students before heading up after Ron. I was going to be a long day with double potions first thing in the morning.

Angel stayed downstairs and answered questions for the others until they tired and went to bed, leaving her alone by the fire. Pulling a book from her bag she began to read as a soft hissing voice issued from under her quivering robes.

"So, when will you tell them about me?" the voice asked her.

"When it becomes important… or unless I feel like telling them. So far I haven't seen any that I would trust meeting you… then again, the teachers may make it impossible for me to keep you a secret for long."

"Ahh, so I'll just enjoy it while I can then, alright Angel?"

"Very well Red, just make sure not to get caught when your away from me… oh, and there is some meat in my pocket that I grabbed from the dinner table."

"Thank you Angel, I'll spend tonight down here by the fire…and no, I won't let myself be seen… I'll simply join you in the morning so make sure to linger down here so I can get under your robes." The voice stopped as soft eating noises came from under her robes. Angela didn't say anything else, just finishing up what she was reading and marking her place with a scrap of ribbon. A few more minutes passed before she stood and went up to the girls dorm, a shadow slipping out from her robes and under the chair she'd been sitting in.

Harry had heard the strange exchange from the top of the boys staircase, having need to use the lavatory but stopping at the sound of Angela speaking to herself, and being startled when the other voice responded. Waiting for Angela to go to bed, Harry slipped down the stairs to the bathrooms, glancing around the common room for the source of the other voice. Seeing nothing he just went back to bed, laying down but not sleeping. He just sat there wondering who the hell could have been in the common room with the Angela.


"Aw, why do we have to have class with them All day? First double Potions, then Herbology, followed by Care of Magical Creatures!" Ron hung his head and poked at his breakfast.

All the other Gryffindors' were coming down to breakfast as well, more food appearing on the tables as Ron spotted Angela walking in, not in the black Hogwarts robes but in a modified trench coat that had the Gryffindor patch on it. He quickly elbowed Harry and pointed as she walked past them to sit at the end of the table nearest the teacher tables. Hermione just looked up from the book she was reading and shrugged.

"She didn't have a chance to go to Diagon Alley to get proper robes so the house elves put the patch on that for her," she reached for a piece of toast, " besides, she's really nice but a very private person. The only reason she talked to me was because I offered her a book to read so she gave me this one in return."

Harry just looked at her in disbelief before turning his attention to the owls flying into the great hall as the mail arrived. He had taken out a subscription to the daily profit like Hermione so he could keep an eye on death eater activity. The owls flew towards the recipients of their mail when suddenly, all the owls parted way for a huge shadow to fly inside, the flash of white and brown feathers heading right towards Angela. She simply held out her arm with a dragon hide glove and the huge bird landed on it, a large package tied to both of it's legs. The bald eagle nuzzled her cheek and ate some of the meat off her plate while she untied the package.

Malfoy had seen the large bird enter the hall and was nearly green with envy, his eagle owl having been the largest bird at Hogwarts before that one had flown in. At that moment he decided that he didn't like Angela one bit and would add her to his list of people to annoy and pester, putting her right under Harry and his friends.

Angela opened the package and smiled, pulling out a cauldron and her potion supplies before giving a bit more food to the eagle and sending it away. The large bird flew through the hall and out the largest window, a few people clapping in awe at how a huge bird could maneuver around all the owls.

Harry just watched it fly off before getting up, "C'mon guys, time for class and we don't want to give Snape any reasons to take house points on the first day of classes."

"Yea, that would be a bad thing."

"You two go on ahead, I'll make sure that Angela can find the classroom without getting lost." Hermione grabbed her bag and went over to her, tapping Angela on the shoulder just as she was putting a red lollypop into her mouth. The girls exchanged a few words and Hermione waved to Harry and Ron, motioning them over.

"Hermione, Angela, we'll talk as we walk, it's almost time for class!" Ron called back.

The girls ran to catch up as all four of them headed down to the dungeons for class, Ron repeatedly looking past Harry towards Angela then quickly looking away with a blush. Angela didn't even seem to notice but Harry could have sworn he heard a muffled snicker come from her direction. Hermione couldn't stand the silence between them and finally turned to Angela.

"So, what's your eagles name?"

"Icewing… I've had him since he was an egg, a present from my father."

"Oh, I guess that's why the headmaster let you keep him instead of an owl?"

"Mhm. The headmaster will also be letting Glint stay here as well."

"Glint?" Hermione looked very confused.

"Yes, Glint. I believe the whole school saw him when I arrived."

"So Glint is that huge dragon."

"Mhm." Angela had stopped talking long enough to pocket the used lollypop sick and unwrap another one, popping it into her mouth right before stepping into the class.

Ron just leaned over to Harry as Angela went and sat at the front of the class right in front of Pr. Snape's desk by herself.

"Girls got a death wish sitting there. That and she'll make us loose points for eating in class!"

"Well, we'll see now won't we Ron. Maybe she'll get away with it this time because she's new?"

"I doubt it mate, Pr. Snape looks for any excuse to take points from us."

Harry didn't get to respond as said professor walking in, striding right up to the blackboard and tapped it with his wand.

"Today we will get started immediately, since I will Not let you dilly dally like some other professors. Now, we will be brewing a Petrifaction potion and you will test it on your partner when it is finished. Properly brewed it will petrify someone for 10 minutes unless it is administered again. I have draft of Mandrake ready for those of you who get it right and anti-poisons for those of you who screw up as it will make a deadly poison instead of petrifying the other person. You will have one hour to prepare the potion and it will then brew for half an hour, leaving the rest of the time for us to try it out. Begin!"

Both Ron and Harry paled and started working on their own potions, Hermione helping Neville out as much as possible while making her own potion. Malfoy, on the other hand, was thinking of how to ruin Angela's since she was right in front of him, while also working on his own potion.


The time flew by and much to everyone's surprise, even Snape's, Angela finished preparing her potion early and went over to the sink to clean up her tools. For the first time since they had come to Hogwarts both the Gryffindor and Slytherin students heard words that they never expected to come out of his mouth.

"Well, well, Ten Points to Gryffindor… for being the first person I've seen in years to finish before the time limit on this potion." Malfoy was fuming since he could hear the slight approving and proud tone to Snapes voice, the one he reserved for truly evil Slytherin students. When no one was looking Malfoy quickly took a small piece of root and tossed it into Angela's potion. It hissed nastily, making everyone look over at it and Snape stalked over, seeing the root floating on top.

"Who did this!" he said coldly. No one dared to speak up as he glared at the class. Angela simply went over to her caldron and took the root out with a pair of tongs, added a few little things and the potion returned to normal.

"It's alright Pr. Snape, my potion is fine."

"Very well Mrs. Frost… and if no one speaks up about this I Will keep everyone for detention." Lots of grumbles went through the classroom before Angela tapped Snape on the shoulder and, to everyone's surprise and shock, pointed right at Malfoy.

"He did it Professor."
