Okay, Here is the new scene; Mrs. Malfoy has just dropped you and Draco off at the Train station and you two are standing there outside the station.

Draco turns to you, "Ada, So we aren't seen together we should split up now that that blasted spell is gone."

"Ya." you turn and walk away from him and maneuver your way thru the thick crowd of muggles. You get onto the platform and find the compartment ware Harry, Ron and Hermione were sitting in waiting for you.

As soon as you closed the door, Hermione started talking. "Okay, now you HAVE to tell us who your uncle is and who your partner was!!"

You grown, "I don't really want to talk about that."

"Why?"

"Just drop the subject! So, how was your summer?"

"Oh, you know, same old same old"

"Nothing special."

"Same hear!!"

"I just can't believe that this is our last year at Hogwarts!!"

"Oh, come on Hermione!"

"You know Ron, I have to go with her on this one. Hogwarts gets me away from the Duslys."

"What about you Ada?"

"It doesn't affect me; I'm planning in going back as a teacher."

"What will you teach?"

"Defense against the Dark Arts of coarse!!"

"Taking a risk there aren't you!"

The door slid open and Draco, Crabbe and Goyle stepped in. "Well, well, look what we have here, Potty water, the weasel, and a big headed MUD-BLOOD!"

"Draco, Don't forget about the..."

You stand and interrupt Crabbe, "Why don't you go and hide in the corner!"

"HA! I'm stronger than that!" he replied.

"Oh? Then why don't you take your strong right thumb and suck it peacefully?!"

Ron stiffened a Laugh to your response.

"Think that's funny do you?"

"Actually, yes, I do!!"

"Why you little..." Hermione stood and pointed her wand at Draco. "Fine, we'll go!!" they turn and ran.

:So, were back to Bully Draco are we?:

:Look, I have to pretend everything is the same now don't I?:

"... And he always has to do that doesn't he? Hay, Ada, you with us?"

"Hu?"

"Malfoy."

"Oh, well you know Draco, he is..."

"Draco?"

"What?"

"Draco, you called Malfoy DRACO. You used his first name!!"

You think to yourself; Bloody Hell!! When did I start calling him Draco'??' "Oh, I..." as you try to think of an excuse the door slides open again with a slam and a tall rain-soaked hooded figure stud there.

The Figure stepped into the compartment and closed the door. "Mind if I sit with you? every ware else it full." She flipped her hood down.

"Sure."

"I'm Amanda but my friends call me Ace. I'm a seventh year, just transferred in from America."

"Hi! I'm Adrienne, but everyone calls me Ada, that is Ron, Harry, And Hermione. We are Seventh years also!"

"Really? What House?"

"Gryffindor, all of us. Have you been sorted yet?"

"Yes, I'm in Gryffindor too." you spent the rest of the ride getting to know each other...

At the Feast, Professor Dumbledore stud and spread his arms out to begin his annual speech. He said all the usual stuff, rules and welcomes. He had everyone sing the school song then he paused. "And lastly, this year, we have a transfer student from America. Would you all welcome my granddaughter, Amanda." Ace stud up and accepted the applause. "Let the feast begin!!" the food appeared and everyone started eating.

"Ace, you're Dumbledore's granddaughter? I thought you said you were muggle born!"

"I am. I know it's odd, my mother was Grandfather's child, But she had no magic power. She was a muggle born into the wizarding world. A squib."

"That's rare!"

"I know."

"So…" you start talking when Draco breaks into your thoughts. :Dumbledore's Grand daughter?:

:Draco, Get out. I'm not in the mood!!:

:Oh?:

:Shut up before I go over to the Slytherin table and shove my fist into your face!!:

:Okay, okay!:

"You okay Ada?" asked Ace.

"What? Oh, ya. I guess I'm just tired."

A month later, you were walking along the edge of the forbidden forest trying to gather your thoughts. You were alone, everyone, even Hermione was still finishing homework. You had gotten your work done. "What are you doing out hear?" you turn to see your uncle.

"Thinking, what are you doing out hear?"

"I saw you out here and, well, you shouldn't be out here at this time alone."

"Why? Are you worrying about me?" you asked as you continue to walk.

Snape looked over his shoulder as he walked next to you then sighed, "Yes, I mean you ARE my niece."

"You don't have to worry about me; I can take care of myself. And anyway, what could possibly happen to me here?"

"Don't be so sure that you are safe here, Ada. Voldamort has gotten in here before. And this time, you may not be so lucky."
"Snape, really I..." you were interrupted by a smashing sound and Snape stud ahead of you to shield you as something emerged from the forest in a flash of teeth and claws. Snape pulled out his wand and pointed it at the creature.

"Run, Ada, I'll hold it off." He whispered.

"No, You can't do it on your own!"

"Go!"

"Fine!" you turn to go but stop, another creature blocked your path. You looked around and saw that 20+ creatures surrounded you. "Snape,"

"I told you to go!"

"Snape, they have us surrounded."

"What!" he looked at the others. You grabbed your wand and started using all the spells you could think of to get rid of the creatures. Snape did the same.

"Snape, Nothing is working!"

"I know!!" the creatures started to get closer...

You decide to try to talk to Draco... :Draco, Draco can you hear me?: no response. :DRACO, IF YOU CAN HEAR ME TELL DUMBLEDORE THAT SOMETHING IS WRONG BY THE FOREST!! MAKE UP SOMETHING BUT HURRY!!: Still no response. :PLEASE!: the creatures were so close, you could reach out and pet it's nose. "What are we going to do now?"

"I don't know!"

"Your a teacher! You should know!!"

"I'm a POTIONS teacher!"

"But you are always trying to teach defense against the dark arts!"

"I never saw or heard of these things!!"
:DRACO!!!!: still nothing :DRACO MALFOY!: The first creature lunged at Snape with snarling teeth and brought Snape to the ground. Another jumps at you and you doge it; a third one jumps and brings you down. :DRACO, PLEASE!! HELP!! I-: the creature bit your shoulder and blood dripped from it's chin. Your vision bleared from the pain:Draco...: The other creatures were pouncing in and biting you and Snape. Snape was struggling, your vision went black. :Dra...: you lost conchessness.
