A Mudblood in Ravenclaw

The little mans name was Flitwick. It turned out he really was headmaster of the school and he spent an entire hour going over stories of all the beginning of the year festivities he had witnessed in his very long career. He especially took time talking about Dumbledore, one of the former headmasters, the first year Harry Potter came to Hogwarts, and his first year as headmaster, which was five years ago after a woman named McGonagall retired. Scorpia almost fell asleep twice.

When the feast was over Scorpia settled into her bed in Ravenclaw Tower. The room had huge windows all around and she could see the dark blue sky and huge moon right outside of the window closest to her bed. The room was very elegant, but pretty drafty. Her blue and bronze bed sat next to Roses, and next to Roses bed was one other bed belonging to another girl Scorpia hadn't spoken to yet.

"Hello!" said the girl smiling.

"Oh, hey" replied Scorpia, extending a hand to shake.

"I'm Elizabeth Simms"

"Scorpia Malfoy, nice to meet you."

"Simms" didn't ring a bell.

"Pureblood?" asked Scorpia.

"Pure what?" asked Elizabeth with a strange expression on her face.

She's a mudblood thought Scorpia with a scowl. Her father told her all about those, and what they were doing to the wizarding world.

"Nothing" said Scorpia quickly, as she walked back to her bed to unpack.

"How do you like Hogwarts so far?" asked Elizabeth after a few moments.

Scorpia ignored her.

"Don't bother with that one." said Rose as she came in. "Pureblood, they're scum."

"Isn't your father pureblood?" asked Scorpia.

Rose ignored her and went to Elizabeth to extend a hand.

"Rose Weasley, pleased to meet you. I'm half-blood, my mother is muggle-born." said Rose proudly.

Elizabeth shook her hand, but looked very confused.

"Blood... you're bleeding?" she asked uncertainly.

This caused both Rose and Scorpia to giggle, until they realized the other was doing it and quickly stopped.

"No." said Rose quickly, "it is family status. A muggle-born is someone born to two muggles."

Elizabeth gave another confused look.

Rose rolled her eyes, this would be difficult. "A muggle is someone who can't do magic, like your parents, I presume?"

Elizabeth shook her head in agreement.

"Alright then, so that's a muggle-born. A half-blood is someone whose family has had a witches, wizards, and muggles in it. A pure-blood is someone who has only had witches and wizards in the family." continued Rose.

Again, confusion.

"Don't worry, I don't get it either. Purebloods are really just half-bloods who like to pretend their families never mixed, there are no real purebloods anymore. Just ignore her" said Rose looking toward Scorpia, "she hates you for no reason other than to make her feel better."

"I don't hate anyone!" said Scorpia angrily. How dare this girl assume these things, she doesn't even know her!

Still, Scorpia refused to look or talk to Elizabeth, leaving Rose and Elizabeth to talk while she read. Again, friendless.


A/N: I know some of you may not care much for Scorpia at this point, but it's how she was raised. She definitely has some growing up to do. Anyway, hope you enjoyed!
