Karma Riddle
Ch.2: Snitch Snatcher and Chocolate Frogs
Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter but I do own this story and Karma.
A/N: Thank you to those who reviewed! I love you! Here's chapter 2. Read the bottom author note for an important question.
Draco and Karma spent the whole ride to Hogwarts eating chocolate frogs and challenging each other to games of Snitch Snatcher. Draco won most of the time and Karma won once, making Draco have a triumphant smile on his face for the rest of the ride and Karma pouting playfully.
"How are you so good at this game, Drakey?" Karma was the only one he allowed to call him that.
"I don't know. I guess I was meant to be a seeker." Draco thought for a moment then laughed.
"What?" He didn't answer, just continued laughing. "What?" Still no answer and Karma was getting annoyed. She hit his arm lightly and glared at him.
"You'd make a good beater." Draco laughed and Karma sighed, shook her head, and smiled at her best friend.
There was a knock on the door and Draco's smile fell off his face, turning into a scowl, when he saw that standing in the doorway was Percy Weasley.
"You two should go change into robes. We'll be arriving soon." Karma nodded and smiled at him brightly as he left.
"Ugh, weasels." Draco muttered and Karma frowned.
"C'mon Drakey, don't be mean. Now lets go change!" Karma skipped out of the room to go change and Draco stayed in the compartment, changing there quickly, and waiting for Karma to return.
When she did, Draco noticed the frown and worried look on her face. "What's wrong?"
She shook her head and looked out the window, watching trees pass and being quiet.
"Karma…" She didn't answer. "Karma?" still no answer. "Karma Jolee Riddle!" he exclaimed, exasperated. She finally looked at him. "What's wrong?"
She sighed, looking down and mumbling, "Harry Potter is here."
"He is?"
"He 'killed' my father ten years ago, Draco, when he was one. He's 11 now."
"So what are you so worried about?"
She leaned in. "My father's not really dead." She whispered so only he could hear. "And you know how against murder I am. What will happen when father finds out? Harry Potter will die."
Draco just stared with his mouth open.
"Draco, are you OK?" She asked worriedly.
He nodded, regaining his composure. "Yeah, yeah, I'm fine. But what will happen if-"
"Shh… we can't talk about this here. It's too dangerous." She cut him off, looking back out the window.
"This may be the only time to talk about it. You may not get into Slytherin, you know. You may get into Gryffindor, or Ravenclaw, or, god forbid, Hufflepuff! (I have nothing against Hufflepuff, but this is Draco Malfoy speaking and he hates anyone not in Slytherin.)
She looked at him with a blank expression. "I think I have a pretty good idea of what house I'll be sorted into." She looked back out the window, watching the scenery fly by as Draco tried to figure out what she meant.
Why does she always have to speak like a fortune cookie? Draco thought to himself.
Little did he know that there was many secrets about Karma Jolee Riddle then she lets on. Though she can't tell him now, he will soon find out.
A/N: Sorry I haven't updated in a while and sorry this is so short. I've been busy trying to get my friends to speak to me so I won't be bored all summer and writing two new stories that are now published. They're the Suite Life Series if anyone cares.
One's a romance and the other is a horror/romance.
Anyway, I hope you liked this chapter, and chapter 3 should be up sometime this week and I promise it'll be longer. Next chapter is the sorting so this is the last call to take the poll on my profile or tell me in a review what house Karma should be sorted into. So far I've gotten more Slytherin than anything.
I also took the Hogwarts Sorting Quiz. I tried to have Karma's attitude as much as I could while taking the quiz, but I don't think I did a good job at it.
Here's the results:
Gryffindor- 82
Ravenclaw- 55
Hufflepuff- 69
Slytherin- 66
So, still deciding. [:
So yeah, bye loves!
