Sierra smiled when the girl finally spoke. "Sorry about that. I didn't mean to scare you," she said. Just to be on the safe side, Sierra turned and glanced behind her, making sure that the girl had jumped because of Sierra's presence and not because of some possible three-headed dog lurking behind them.

"I thought you looked familiar," she continued, turning back around. "I've seen you in the common room, right? You're a Slytherin?" she asked. She was sure she'd seen the girl in a few of the classes, too, but then again, members of all houses were present in classes. This girl, she thought, had been in the common room before. "Anyway, I'm Sierra Greingoth, first year Slytherin."
