I do not own Harry Potter, just having fun with the characters

AN: I am not trying to character bash except have them be misinformed.

AN: As it stands right now, the fans are leaning towards Nicole being in Slytherin. I plan on having her sorted by Saturday. Any more takers on Ravenclaw because I do not see her being in Gryffindor or Hufflepuff.

The next morning, Nicole was woken up early because this would be the day she was going to go to Diagon alley to get her school supplies and her uniform.

Today it is her turn to help with breakfast and Petunia passed her her medication cup with all of the pills that she has to take because of the Asperger's and the OCD. While she was helping to cut up the peppers, onion, and tomato for the omelet, Petunia IA noticed Nicole starting to arrange everything by size and cutting too perfectly. Time to stop her.

"Ah, Nicole"

That is where Nicole ' s OCD came in, she does size and arrangements of ten. That did not get diagnosed until she was six. Vernon picked up on that one and brought it up with the therapist and earned her a chance get of medication.

Soon, Severus arrived and Severus was handed a small bottle with three pills that she would have to take while she was out with him and a bottle of water. There is one tiny white round pill that Severus learned is for her panic attacks if she has one or better known as a melt down.

Severus had the vault key and the money for her school supplies ready to go. Nicole ' s first test was the portkey which landed her on her but right in the middle of the alley. It got much worse, everyone was looking at Nicole. Time to pull the bags out of the head band.

This first one who actually said something " You must be Nicole Potter. I have children who are about your age..."

Nicole started to get a wide eye look. This is exactly what she does not like and good thing Severus was there. "Molly, Arthur; Miss Potter needs to get her school supplies."

It was a sigh of relief, now it was onto the Madam Malkin ' s and Severus walked in with Nicole while Draco gawked. Severus saw what his godson was doing "Don't gawk Draco, it is rude."

Draco closed this mouth "I am Draco Malfoy, what is your name?"

Nicole, who is well known for being monotone in voice , dead panned "My-name-is-Nicole." Draco looked at her funny which is not a surprise to Nicole because most people do.

Mrs. Malfoy came in and took one good at Nicole. She saw Aunt Dorea in the little girl. She paid for Draco ' s robes and left with him.

The morning was spent without one problem. Nicole did seem to be very intimidated a little worse than other children, yet Nicole is not like other children.

Severus decided to go for lunch in one of those places where the well to do eat, meaning the pure bloods. This would take the attention off Nicole and be less crowded. The Calderon would have a little more attention than Severus would like and frankly he was not in the mood for someone trying to separate him from Nicole because he was a death eater. It was the worse mistake of his life that caused him his Lily. Something else, Lily named him godfather to Nicole. He just could not take custody of her because of his mistake.

Nicole was eating in silence when a loud pop and flash hapend. Nicole nearly jumped out of her seat and looked doe eyed. It is that pest Skeeter.

"Miss Potter, good, I found you. Just need a few words of you being back in the Wizarding world..."

The photographer went to take a picture of Nicole when Nicole sabotaged the picture by waving her arm in front of her face. This was not what she wanted, to have the attention.

"Please leave me alone " asked Nicole.

Narcissa was not happy because she did not want that harpie disrupting her lunch and trying to tell Nicole of her father.

"Nicole, a word. The public want to know about you.

Severus went to school with Rita and could not stand her at all. He had been waiting years to shut her up.

"Ms. Skeeter, I believe Miss Potter asked you to leave her alone. You do not have permission to take a picture of her without parent or guardian permission. You do not have that. Leave"

Rita did not take a hint and now she was making a scene. She yanked Nicole out of her seat "Just let me get that second picture and hold still you brat. The public will know what a little brat you are having everyone at your beckon call."

Nicole was close to a melt down when she kept her wits about her "Let-go-of-me-please. I-believe-Professor-asked-you-to-go."

"Talk to me like a normal person you petulant child" yelled Skeeter right in the middle of the restaurant.

Nicole used her Judo, a small piece of it just to get out of her grasp. She knew Sensei Han would approve. What Nicole did was twist her wrist around and use her other hand to pull up. Skeeter was taken by surprise and she let go. Nicole went to put some distance between her and that pest.

By this point, Skeeter had Severus and the Malfoys pointing their wands at Skeeter. Skeeter saw the owners and Ogden told her in no certain terms "Leave and I am pressing charges. You are banned from her for life."

Skeeter shouted "YOUR NAME WILL BE IN RUINS OGDEN. POTTER, THE WORLD WILL KNOW YOU ARE A BRAT AND A FREAK!"

Marie Ogden was making the apologies while Tiberius was handling her. Severus pulled out her pills and gave them to Nicole. She looked like she was going to have a melt down. He cast a quick and light calming charm on her because at this point he wished he had some calming drought on him.

Draco knew if he said anything that was and nothing but friendly to Nicole , he would be in very deep trouble.

"Are you o.k." asked Draco.

Nicole dead panned "Not-the-first-time-I-have-been-called-freak."

Draco read it as she will be o.k. There is something to Nicole. She is not like other kids.

Everyone wanted to be out of there. Skeeter spoiled it. There will be other chances.

On the way out, Lucas asked his long time friend "Pressing charges?"

Severus nodded "I am and her aunt and uncle need to know. Maybe three sets of criminal complaints will put her into place."

Nicole could not wait to be home "Thank you Professor Snape. Nice to meet you Mr. Malfoy, Mrs. Malfoy, and Draco."

Lucius made a mental note to ask about Nicole because there is something to her that is not because she is muggle raised. Severus was going to explain to his friends and godson about Nicole having Asperger's. He knew Draco would keep his mouth shut if he knew what was good for him.

When Severus went into the tale of Nicole ' s lunch. Petunia looked ready to explode. "Nicole, I will be going with your professor to press charges. This is not acceptable." She knew what her aunt meant and knew she needed Judo tonight, that always helped when she is upset. Nicole may not be good at verbalizing but she got whatever would agitate her out there. That would be the bad part of her no school, no Judo.

Nicole, you will soon learn about the room of requirement.

...

Nicole would officially hate Diagon alley but learn that their are some distant relatives that will not treat her like she is peculiar once they know about Asperger's.

Skeeter will be bashed because she goes too far for a story. It will be exposed that she is an illegal Animagus.
