CHAPTER 2

As I was walking back to the Gryffindor common room, I was thinking of how Professor Dumbledore said that I could possibly be the most powerful person on earth! It was a lot to take in at the moment but I could actually help defeat Voldemort!

I walked into the common room and sat on the couch. The whole room was empty now. Im guessing everyone went to bed. I couldn't understand why though. It was a Friday night and it was only 10pm. Wow, I spent 3 hours in his office.

Right before I left, I asked him if it would be okay if I told people. He told me to be sure of who I told. I decided I was going to tell Hermione and Ginny. My best friends.

I looked up and saw Fred and George Weasley descending the stairs. They decided to come back to Hogwarts to finish their education. I use to have a thing for Fred. I use to get really nervous when ever he was near since my third year, but I've calmed down a little since then. Now, 3 years later, I was all good, and over it, well, him.

I smiled as they both sat down on either side of me.

"Where is everyone?" I asked.

They both shrugged.

"Well I guess it just you and me boys. So what are we doing tonight?" I said, throwing my arms carelessly over their shoulders.

"Were planning our beginning of the year prank" George said. I smiled widely.

"You guys think you could use an extra hand?" I asked. They looked at each other.

"Well I dunno George…" Said Fred.

"Yeah, I know what you mean brother" I looked at them and raised an eyebrow.

"I mean, she is a girl" I smacked Fred behind the head.

"Well then, never mind!" I snapped as I began to get up though a pair of hands shot up and wrapped around my waist. A second later, I was seated on Fred's lap. I blushed. 'Shit!' I thought.

I never blushed. I looked at George who smirked.

'Well, well, well. Looks like someone fancies Fred'he thought.I kicked his leg hard.

"OW!"

Maybe too hard. I laughed.

"What was that for?" He complained. I shrugged. Fred laughed in my ear and I smiled.

"Alright, would you help us?" Fred gave me puppy eyes.

I smirked. I was going to have fun with this.

"No way!" I jumped up.

I walked across the room with a grin on my face. Three, two, one-

"Maddie please!" I turned as both my hands pulled me back. They were both on their knees, with hands clasped together in front of their faces. Fred and George Weasley, the Hogwarts legends since the Marauders, are begging ME to help them in a prank? They NEVER let anyone help. I would need to think this over. I was always good at pranks at home but I just never did any at school. That was left for Fred and George, but seeing as they're begging for me… "Hmm" I crossed an arm across my chest and tapped my chin with the other.

I looked at them. They wore identical expressions. Pleading expressions.

"Well… I guess" I finally said.

They both jumped up and hugged me, well, more attacked me.

"Ouch!" I yelped as someone picked me up, making my knee hit the table.

Then, across the room, the door at the other end opened and Harry, Hermione, Ron and Ginny came in followed by a bunch of other people. I pushed myself out of whoever's arms I was in and I charged straight at Ginny though Ron got in the way.

"Ouff!" Ron and I landed with a thud on the floor.

I burst out laughing.

"Woops" I laughed as he rolled over and he was on top of me.

"You have to help me!" He whispered. I raised an eyebrow and looked over to where he was looking. Lavender Brown. Her eyes widened as she saw Ron on top of me. I burst out laughing again.

"Looks like Ickle Ronnikins has an admirer" I giggled and pushed him off me and joined the others on the couch. "Well, Fred and I are out for the night" George said as he began to get up.

Fred winked at me and I followed them after greeting my cousin Harry, Hermione, and Ginny. I followed them up to their room where it was emptied of people.

"Seriously, where is everyone?" I asked as I plopped myself on Fred's bed.

"I dunno" I looked at the time. 10:30pm. I looked back at the twins. They were sitting on George's bed and they were looking at me.

"What!?" I said.

"Any ideas?" Fred asked and I bit my lip.

"It's not really a prank but just a payback for the Slytherins" I looked at George whose eyes lit up.

"Yes, keep going!"

"Well, how about every time Snape goes to take any points from Gryffindor, he takes the double away from Slytherin instead…" My voice trailed off towards the end.

"Efiasco" I looked up to see their reactions but the yelling of

"Brilliant!" from both boys told me that it was a great idea.

"Or you can turn Malfoy into a ferret again" They smirked their identical evil smirks and were about to say something when there was a loud knock on the door.

I jumped off the bed and went to answer it. There stood Professor McGonagall.

"Oh. H-hello Professor!" I greeted quickly. I hoped she wasn't listening. She eyed me and then said,

I need you down in the common room please, Miss Black" I nodded and followed her out and down the stairs. Was I in trouble? I hoped not.

Fred and George followed, probably out of curiosity.

"Doesn't even know one spell! How could Dumbledore let this kid in. He doesn't even look like a child!"

I didn't understand what she meant by her thoughts but I guess I wasn't in trouble after all. Whew. Then I gasped. This could be harder than I thought since I promised Dumbledore I wouldn't use my powers during school.

Down in the common room, almost everyone was there. I rolled my eyes. How could so many people disappear and then reappear? Oh well.

"Stand there until I call for you" She whispered, pointing toward the wall.

As I went, Fred and George followed and a little while later, so did Hermione, Harry, Ginny and Ron.

"What did she want?" Fred whispered. I shrugged.

All the students gathered around Professor McGonagall who stood in front of the common room entrance. She cleared her throat and everyone quieted down.

"Right. Well, as some of you may know, we have a new student coming to Hogwarts this year"

Hmm, a new student? This could get interesting! She pointed her wand towards the door and it flew open.

There he was, with his hair dripping, probably from the rain outside, Jacob Black.

I gasped and held my breath while I rearranged my senses. As he walked in, my vampire instincts to kill him switched on.

I closed my eyes and concentrated very hard to control myself. Once I was fully under control of myself, I opened my eyes, and of course, he was staring at me. I narrowed my eyes and attempted to stare him down. He flinched but never took his eyes off me. Idiot!

I never met him but I knew what he was. What the hell was HE doing here? At Hogwarts! He didn't even know magic! McGonagall was right! Dumbledore is literally out of his mind.

I heard people talking but I wasn't really listening. I was trying to get a peak into his mind though for some reason, I couldn't. I scowled and he smirked.

I felt something poke my ribs, which snapped me out of my daze and turned to see Ginny.

"Maddie! McGonagall's talking to you!" She pointed.

I walked over to her but made sure to stay a couple feet away from the sorry bastard.

"Miss Black, I would introduce you to Mr. Black over here but he says you have already met" She looked at me, obviously waiting for me to confirm this, so I nodded and narrowed my eyes. Why would he tell her that?

"Right, well, Professor Dumbledore and I have decided to give you the task to fill Mr. Black on everything he missed and to get him settled. You both have me Monday second period so I give you permission to miss my class to help him catch up. I wish you both good luck and I will be checking on you both regularly" My mouth hit the ground as she handed me a large package and turned towards the door though at the last second, she turned back.

"Oh, and I expect you to show him where he will be sleeping" With that, she turned and left me standing there, like an idiot with my mouth still hanging open.

I snapped my mouth shut and widened my eyes. No way was she expecting me to tutor him. Like HELL I was.

"Hey" He said, rubbing the back of his neck. I rolled my eyes and turned towards everyone.

I walked passed everyone and went directly to the stairs. I looked back at him from the 5th step and with a wave of my wand, levitated his trunk. Then he began to follow. Once we made it to the top of the stairs, I head the whispers from down stairs but I chose to ignore them. Though, before I shut the bed room door, I did hear Lavender whisper about how 'hot' he was. I snorted and turned to face him.

He was standing in the middle of the room. I sent his trunk over to the foot of his new bed and stored my wand away

"So you're a vampire… right?" He asked nervously and I nodded.

"I've never met a werewolf before" I said and he chuckled.

"That's your bed and bathrooms are over there" I said, pointing.

He nodded but never took his eyes off me. I rolled my eyes and finally took a look at the package in my hand. I walked over to Harry's bed and plopped myself down on it and pulled everything out of the envelope.

It showed all the spells he needed to learn, the potions he needed to complete, and all the creatures and ingredients he needed to know about and more. I groaned. These things went all the way back to first year!

Then, there was a knock on the door and I stood up to answer it. Hermione walked in and an immensely large pile of books followed in behind here. She directed them to a desk in the corner of the room with her wand and headed out after giving me a look of apology. I groaned again.

I walked back to Harry's bed, passing Jacob who was still standing in the middle of the room, to take one last look at everything. Just as I was about to shove it back in, a small little gold thing slid out of the envelope. A time turner. Great. I began to wonder if I could get away with murder. Probably. It would be easier that way. But I pushed that thought away and turned to stare at him again.

He was dripping on the floor. I rolled my eyes for what seemed like the thousandth time that night and with 2 flicks of my wand, I had him standing in fresh, dry clothes, and the puddle of water beneath him disappeared. I looked him up and down.

"Do you even have a wand?" I asked, as one eyebrow rose.

He pulled one out of his back pocket and twirled in between his fingers.

"Right" I muttered. I sat back down, thinking of what to do next. Nothing in particular came to my mind except murdering him right here and now. He was going to ruin my year. Where were these thoughts coming from? I wondered. Maybe it was my vampire instincts. I didn't even know the kid and I felt like shredding him to pieces.

I stared back up at him. He was beginning to annoy me now, just standing there, staring at me. Though I had to admit, he was very good looking.

"Well?" I asked. He shrugged.

"I dunno" And I rolled my eyes, again. This was getting ridiculous.

"Why are you here?" I asked. If he didn't answer me this time, I would get it on my own. I didn't care if I wasn't supposed to use my powers.

Nothing.

I smirked and pulled out a rather useful power into my mind.

'Why are you here?' I asked in my head and this time, he immediately answered in a robotic voice

"Sam sent me to keep an eye on you" And I frowned. They were sending a stupid mutt to spy on me? No way!

"How did you do that?" He asked, looking amazed.

"You better not get on my nerves" I warned.

"Let's go" And I jumped off the bed and pranced to the door, my bad mood already gone.

He began to open the door but I was there in a flash, slamming in shut.

"And you had better not tell ANYONE what you and I are!" And I turned back to the door.

"Follow me. And don't talk to anyone for now. Got it?" And he nodded.

As I made my way down stairs, I went right over to the large window sill and gestured him to sit. He climbed in and leaned his back against the wall and his right shoulder against the window. I sat the same way but made sure not to ever touch him. I was also facing him instead of the wall his feet were on. I wrapped my arms around my knees and then I began.

"If people ask you which school you went to before, you say Durmstrang. And if they ask why you left, you got expelled. 'Kay?" He nodded.

"Ok, so how old are you?"

"My real age? Or what age I stopped aging at?"

Well, I guess it wouldn't hurt to know both.

"Both" And he nodded for a second time.

"I stopped aging this year but Im turning 16 soon"

WHAT!? They were sending a YOUNG werewolf to spy on me? This was getting even more ridiculous by the minute. My eyes widened. Great, now I would have to make sure he never lost control. Yay, fun.

"Right. Ok so if anyone asks, you're 15 and you're an only child. And try to avoid making up too much answers. Don't answer them unless it makes sense" Ok, so now we got the basics figured out, now let's move on to the people.

"Ok, so do you see that girl over there with the blonde hair?" I asked. He searched the room.

"Nope" I sighed and pointed to her, trying not to make it obvious and then he nodded.

"She's a slut. She's gonna want to get into your pants, so beware. Literally. So stay away from her" He chuckled. I showed him the Patil twins.

"Pavarti's in Gryffindor. She's best friends with Lavender. Padma's in Ravenclaw. Stay away from Pavarti too" I showed him Hermione.

"That's one of my best friends. Her name is Hermione. She's really smart and she's also a muggleborn"

"Muggleborn?" Idiot.

"Yes. A muggle is a non-magic person. She's a witch but her parents aren't" He nodded.

"That's the Weasleys" I said, pointing to the twins, Ginny and Ron.

"The girl is Ginny, she's my other best friend and she's in her fifth year. The twins, Fred and George, are all time pranksters. They're in their last year at Hogwarts. Ron's best friends with Harry, who's my cousin. I suppose you don't know about the famous Harry Potter?" I asked.

"No, I do" Good. Then I wouldn't have to explain everything.

I showed him a picture of Malfoy in his mind. He went rigid for a second but nodded.

"That's Draco Malfoy. He's a prick, so stay away from him and his gang. They like to pick on people, and since you don't know magic, just stay away from him" He nodded. Ok, time to mingle.

"Come" I said, as I jumped off the window sill. I walked over to the couch and plopped myself on it. He sat beside me and I inched away from him.

"Guys, come over here" I called to my friends. Ginny was the first. She squeezed herself between me and Jacob and grinned at me and shot a quick glance at Jacob. I rolled my eyes. Of course she would be attracted to him.

Ron came on my other side and the twins, Harry and Hermione took the opposite couch.

Just as I was about to say something, I heard a squeal and turned to see who slaughtered a pig. Lavender, of course, was pushing people out of the way, trying to get here. She was making her way over here so I decided to have a little fun.

I pulled out my wand and gave it a little flick, murmuring a spell, making her trip right in front of Jacob. Everyone laughed except for Jacob. She got up and stomped her way over to her dorm. Ugh. Now I would have to hear them talk about him all night long. Murder me.

"Right, so guys, this is Jacob Black" He waved his hand awkwardly.

"He's a transfer student from Durmstrang" They all greeted and I decided to get up and walk around.

After a while, Ginny and Hermione went up to bed and left the boys talking. I looked at my watch. It was 11:30.

"So, Jacob, are you trying out for Quiditch?" I heard Ron ask. Shit! I ran over to him.

"Sorry boys!" And I led him out into the corridor.

"What the hell is Quiditch?" He asked.

"A game played on brooms" He smirked.

"Flying broom sticks?" I rolled my eyes.

"How tired are you" I asked.

"I've got about 20 hours left in me" I nodded.

"Good. Wanna learn how to fly?" He laughed.

"Seriously?" And I nodded. He shrugged.

"Sure" He answered with a grin

"Flobberworm" I said to the fat lady and walked back into the common room.

"Wait here" I said, pointing to the door. I ran up to Fred and George's room and knocked. Fred answered.

"You're Quiditch captain, right?" He nodded.

"Ok, when are Quiditch tryouts?" I asked. He shrugged.

"Ok, so which places are open?" I asked, hoping to get a reply out of this one.

"Well, Harry's got seeker, George and I have beaters and that's about it. Trying out this year? I've never even seen you on a broom!" I shrugged and headed to my room for my firebolt. I went back downstairs and went to Harry.

"Harry, can I borrow you're firebolt?" He raised an eyebrow but then he and Ron jumped up and yelped

"Where did you get THAT?" Ron hollered, pointing at the broom over my shoulder.

"Shh!" I said, covering his mouth with my hand.

"I bought it" Then, Harry finally spoke

"What do you need 2 firebolts for?" I pointed over to Jacob.

"Oh, um, yeah, sure" I nodded.

"Accio firebolt" And I walked back to Jacob with 2 broomsticks.

Just as I was about to close the portrait door behind me, Harry handed me the Marauders Map.

"Oh, thanks" As the door was closing again, I heard Ron whisper

"Can she even fly?" And I saw Harry answered with a shrug of his shoulders.

I looked back at Jacob who was looking at the parchment.

"I solemnly swear that I am up to no good" And the dots began to appear across the page. There was no one in the halls so me and Jacob ran for it.

We took a passage way that lead near the Quiditch pitch. 5 minutes later, we were standing in the middle of it.

"So this is a Quiditch pitch" He nodded. Wait, wouldn't it be better if he knew how to fly first and then the rules?

"Mount your broom, like this" I said, also mounting mine.

"Kick off the ground, lightly" And he kicked off the ground. He was hovering, 5 feet in the air before I kicked off too.

"Follow me, you'll see it's easy to control" And I kicked off and soared through a goal post. After a couple hours, he was just about as good as me. Well, it helped if you had amazing reflexes.

Then, I began to teach him how to play Quiditch. He caught on right away. Though he wasn't very good at keeper, he was amazing at aiming, so I decided to 'train' him for chaser. I made bludgers randomly try to hit him and he dodged them all the time.

After about 7 hours, he was all set. "Great!" I said as we both touched down. So he being a werewolf and me being a vampire, well, sort of, wasn't so bad.
