Emma grinned at Orabelle. She raised an eyebrow and smirked. Miss Malfoy, really? she thought. Wow, way not to remember my name.. The blonde felt a bit odd. The new girl had lied. She was pretty good at lying. "Miss Malfoy? Feeling formal today Orabelle? Please call me Emma." she asked politely.

The blonde pushed her hair back and her eyebrows raised. Cousin in America? Could it be SELENA!? "Does your cousin happen to be named Selena Zabini Riddle?" she asked, excitedly, a huge smile growing on her face. HER BESTIE!!! Was this girl her bestie's evil cousin?! Shocking.

"FEEE! My sis! And Glitter Girl." she exclaimed, excitedly and hugged her back tightly. Yay! Emma had missed her tons- no HEAPS! "I'm wonderful! Just meeting new people and I hung out with Brae earlier. How are you? How was your summer? You look stunning!" exclaimed the blonde Malfoy before hugging Fee one last time. "Do you know William? And Orabelle?"
Emma saw a familiar curly haired Slytherin, who had grown a bit. The blonde ran behind him and put her hands over his eyes. "Guess who?" she exclaimed, trying her hardest not to giggle. Her Alexbear was back. Her partner in crime. They could save the world.. or take over it. Muhhahahahahahahaaa. He'd never know.

Fee chuckled a little as Iris got into the conversation.She was the best head girl ever,seriously.She had even invited the blonde to her birthday party last year.She seemed to be really offended by the way William had talked to the third year.It was sweet how much she cared.

"Iris",Fee smiled,"did you know how great you actually are?".And she was right,if you and your boyfriend werent friends how were you supposed to get along with eachother and enjoy your time?!But William was young,he surely didnt mean it to sound like Iris had took it."I guess thats how you and Aaron started huh?",the Slytherin wiggled her eyebrows and hoped to ease the tension a little.Nooo fights,please."I am sure William here didnt want to say hugo treated me bad or something",she reassured the head girl,"its our thing how we act around eachother anyway.No matter what others say."Willy just seemed a little worried about her."Dont be too hard with him",the girl winked and giggled a little.

Fee just giggled as she noticed how excited Emma was about meeting her.Sweet."Ohh i met so many new people too its really amazing",she nodded.Just as the blonde was about to ask how her sis' summer was,she got asked about it.Hehe,this was the sister syndrome."My summer was incredebly awesome",the third year nodded,"i went to New York and got to know so many cool people."What about yous?"Hadnt seh been to NY too?!"You look stunning yourself",the girl nodded.Well,Emma always did actually."I know William yes",she nodded,"he is pretty cool for a firstie huh?"not to forget flirty.Giggle.

What was the big deal?

Evelyn should know by now that she was never going to stop eating chocolate. Look at the end of term feast! That incident didn't stop her, so being told not to eat it wasn't going to stop her either.

Scoffing to herself when she was told to spit it out, Destiny quickly slapped her hands over her mouth and shook her head. "NEVER!"

That showed her!

Although, she probably could have spit it out.. right onto her friend. But, despite whatever bad mood she was suddenly it, Destiny still thought that was disgusting. Besides, that would be wasteful! One should not waste chocolate!

It should be a rule!

Once she had swallowed, Destiny reached into her pocket for another chocolate frog, to REALLY show Evelyn, when she saw something else to eat.

Mwaha!

Sure, she really didn't like the little Gryffindor after her whole 'I'm going to sit on Patroclus' lap' incident, but cookies were cookies and Destiny liked cookies. Especially if they were chocolate ones. Reaching over the table, she pulled a few of the AWESOME Slytherin cookies out of the box and waved one in front of Evelyn's face.

"Would you rather me eat THIS?"

Because she was going to.

"Then block me out." Mordred grinned. It wasn't his habit to intrude thoughts. It's just that sometimes it comes to him unannounced. He too looked at the staff's table. "I honestly don't know. I'm beginning to think that we are to take DADA lessons inside that ship because Lord Borr lives there? What do you think?" he knew the professors have their own dorm, but Lord Borr could be the eccentric one. "Hmm" he said as he scratched his chin, "If that's the case then it is out of bounds, unless if we have DADA classes in there of course." he assumed.

"Cool, I'm not sure if I recognize Danielle. What year is she in?" Isabelle said sweetly. What a relief she wasn't the only one who was new here. "It's relieving to know that I'm not the only one here who is new and doesn't know anyone." What a relief indeed she was so afraid she would be singled out as a new person.

" Do not cry" William told Emma. " I will heed your advice" William said to Emma." Not really that many people" William sighed." There seems to be a lot of grumpy people here" William agreed with Emma. " Whay did Rex tell me it was so cool when he ws at HogWarts?" Rex asked Emma.

" Thanks, fave third year" William told Fee. " I know you would be fine with it" William said to Fee." I think he needs to compliment you ,more and give you gifts once in awhile" William explained to Fee. Actually, I never heard Hugo use the term "love" in the same sentence with Fee" William sighed. I do not understand why others have to be in our conversation when he has nothing to do with them" William sighed again.

Sierra glanced at Alex out of the corner of her eye. Really, Alex? Seriously? They spend an entire summer vacation away from one another and that's all he can think to say to her? Whatever. Come to think of it, she didn't have much to say to him either.

..not really.

Well, yeah, maybe. "Alex," she sternly said, "...how was it? You know, away from Dad and I? How was it just living with Mother?" That's what she really wanted to know. Who cared that he likely rose two feet off the ground on a toy broom with handlebars? Or, well, that's what she imagined the broom to look like, at least.



Oh.

My.

Merlin.

Why? Why? Why? Why? Whyyyy? Sierra clenched her eyes shut, hoping that if she didn't even spare the annoying girl a slight glance, Lola wouldn't even recognize her or see her and would just move on--to maybe, another table perhaps?

How had 'Little Miss Sunshine, Happy, Overly-friendly, Annoying Lola' make it into Slytherin? She better be intellegent--or a good Quidditch player, at least. Who did that sorting hat think the Slytherins were? Helga Hufflepuff? No, no, no. They were not going to take the lot of them for no good reason at all.

Yes, Lola Jones. You better be amazing out there on that pitch.

Ohhh, ...finally! Now here was someone Sierra could actually tolerate at all times, no matter what. She smiled at Evelyn--yes, smiled. Evelyn wasn't annoying in the least, was a great points earner for Slytherin house, and was awesome out there on the pitch. Yes, Evelyn got a smile.

Unlike you, Lola Jones...

"Evelyn," Sierra said, her face brightening considerably. "How...refreshing to see someone like you around here." For a brief moment her brown eyes flickered over to Lola and then to some annoyingly loud Slytherin who literally hadn't stopped screaming since she'd sat down. "I...had an interesting summer, we'll just say." She'd just leave her answer at that. Interesting was...a slight understatement. "How was yours?"

"My kneazle," Sierra answered, turning her attention back to Lulu. She didn't add any details about Hissy Fit. Not yet, at least. "I'm sure Hissy Fit will take a liking to you, Lulu Patterson." After all, the kneazle only seemed to dislike obnoxious people that her owner seemed to have a problem with. That put Lulu Patterson in a safe zone...

...and Lola Jones, who Lulu had just invited to sit down, in a danger zone. "Oh, Lulu! Why? Whyyy?" she wanted to complain, but she didn't, though. She just glanced down in another attempt to keep Lola the Annoying from spotting her. "Water bombs," she repeated. "Sounds interesting. I spent the summer in Hawaii, but...they didn't have water bombs there." No, there were other surprises in Hawaii. Surprises Sierra would just keep to herself for now.

...

Okay, this kid had to want something from her. There was absolutely no other reason for a random stranger to walk up to her and be that nice. She glanced up at him for a few seconds, assessing him and trying to figure out his intentions.

...and then she heard him greet yet another Slytherin girl in the same way, and then another after that. This one was up to no good. I'm keeping an eye on you, Lion Boy! "Can I help you with something, Montcenaggio?" she asked. Maybe, point in the direction to your own house table?

Ahhh, Evan Cartwright--the most Hufflepuff Slytherin she'd ever met. Evan was alright, though. More than alright. He'd always been good to her and had never been annoying in the least, so what was there to hate?

Not to mention the fact that he was a prefect. Staying on good terms with people with power was always a good idea in her mind. "Evan," she answered with a smile. "My summer was...surprising, yet really good." Again, she'd just leave things at that. "I'm guessing yours was good, too?" He seemed to be in a good mood, at least. Then again, Evan Cartwright was always in a good mood.

"Hollingberry," Sierra remarked, taking notice of the Dictionary Eater's presence at the Slytherin house table. Of course the girl came as a package deal--Kurumi + cookies. Sierra's eyes turned slowly to the cookies, and then she glanced back up at the Gryffindor girl once again. "Welcome back."

...of course that last line was accompanied by an evil grin and a hidden message--Let the games begin, Dictionary Eater...

...a fourth year?

Way to earn yourself brownie points in my book, new kid. She gave the girl a small, pleased smile, and then said, "Second year, actually." She nodded in acknowledgment when the girl mentioned having been to Durmstrang. "Well, welcome to Hogwarts--and better yet, Slytherin." Noticing that Evelyn had spoken to the girl, as well, Sierra added, "Friend of yours, Evelyn?"

It was sweet how William was worried about Fee's relationship but the blonde also knew how insecure her boyfriend was with everything and she didnt want to force him to do anything.As long as they were together everything was fine with or without compliments and gifts."He does compliment me a lot actually",the third year chuckled.It wasnt like that everyone had to hear him do that.Use the term love? Oh well..."You know the most important thing to me is that i know he cares for me and that i mean something to him other than that i can wait",she smiled and nodded.When Willy sighed the blonde patted his arm a little."Iris is a great person i am sure she just got you wrong",she said.

"I don't think anything will go wrong," he said and nodded. She was a Slytherin. And a prefect. Probably head girl now. What could go wrong? She would go into the real world like a fish out of water, but then the fish would grow human skin and body parts immediatly after it went onto land... Ah, even Hugo's mind was rambling. "Yes, study-er party hard, that's what I'm talking about!" he said and fist pumped once before embarrisingly retracting it, hoping no scary mean Slytherin had seen him. And third year was going to be fun too. But he was going to work hard. Yes. Fun and work. Always a good combination. "Were you at the ministry party?" he asked as he changed the subject. "Because I saw Lord Berty Borr is the new Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher which is rather odd for such an important man, right?" he asked.

"I said I might have been waiting for you," he chuckled. "Well, with you being awshum," Hugo replied, laying particular imphasis on the awshum. He laughed. "Fee, you always look good to me," he said and smiled at her. "Buttt I guess the pretty dress does help," he winked. "Did you also notice how fast the train ride went? I did catch a glimpse of that ship in the lake though, did you also see that?" he asked. It rather interested him.

Ahw. It was annoying stupidhead firstie again. Calling her hot blonde again. But before Hugo could speak up, Iris was speaking already. A slight smirk appeared on his face as Iris spoke to the annoying boy. He looked up at Iris, and said "Go Iris" in his head. He probably should've stopped her and said it was okay, but he reckoned she was right. The boy was downright disrespectful.

When Hugo overheard that, he raised his voice himself. "Kid- the only time I have spoken to you was ten minutes ago and that was me pointing out your disrespect towards my girlfriend! I BARELY SAID ANYTHING TO YOU. Why would I say the word love when I'm talking about you disrespecting Fee?" Hugo was only working himself up, but this kid was amazingly annoying. "Since when does calling someone "hot" mean you love them? Since when do I need to compliment someone in order to love them? I don't think you understand the meaning of love, you little-" Hugo stopped there for a second because he was out of breath. "...Prat. And also, your conversation? Umm I'm heavenly sorry for abrupting your conversation but I think she was speaking to me and you just budged into my conversation!"

Fee just shook her head,little obnoxious boyfriend.Tsk,Tsk."Oh well if you were waiting for someone else i could make place?",she asked trying to hold back her chuckle.Aww he thought she was awesome?Not as awesome as him that was."How do you manage to make me smile when i am here for barely 5 minutes?",the girl said,"and you are awesome too."The most awesome guy ever,actually.Waiiiit,she always looked good to him? This was definitely something that got her all warm and happy."Well its a good thing that i bought a lot pretty dresses with Ellie then i guess?",the third year laughed.Oh Oh ohhh,the ship in the laake."Unfortunately i couldnt see it no",the girl shook her head,"but i am so excited about this.I mean how can it appear just like that?!"It was a quite frightening."I couldnt even find you on the train ride,it was sooo short i dont know why",she areed.The time at Diagon Alley and the train ride seemed to be a lot shorter than last time.

At first Hugo seemed fine with what was going on at the table but then Fee noticed him getting angry and she knew he was about to get it all out.It was understandable though,hearing what Willy was talking about wasnt quite nice to him.The Slytherin looked at her boyfriend kinda worried and squeezed his hand a little."Hugo",she said in a calm tone,"dont be angry.Its not about what he is saying its about us.Only we know what is happening between us."As she said to William before, as long as they were together and Fee knew she meant something to Hugo everything was good.No matter what."He doesnt know what he is talking about",the blonde told the ravenclaw boy,"just sit down with me and have a good time okay?"No fights,not now and not with her new friends.Pleease.

" Good because Hugo seems like a really nice guy" William told Fee." Ok, caring is good and you can wait for those words, very cool" William said to Fee." Well, right now you are one of my few friends here and Iris is not helping much to change my thoughts about how HogWarts is not for me" William explained to Fee.

"Excuse me, but no one calls me kid, not my father, mother or anyone in my family and you are the one that is disrepctful" Willaim told Hugo. " We met in Diagon Alley and I actually have always liked you" William said to Hugo." You and I just have different ideas about love and that is it, no problem" Willaim explained to Hugo. " By the way, I was not talking about you interupting Fee's and my conversation but I spologize to you for interrupting" Willaim sighed.
Fee, I need to talk to you, I can;t stand HogWarts and everyone in my family and their friends loved it" Willaim begged Fee to talk to him

Vincent sat down at his new house table. Well it wasn't really new, but new faces, new lighting, a completely different atmosphere than he was used to. It was very new.

He was hoping to see some of his friends from Diagon Alley, as he had lost them way back when in various shops, and hadn't met up with any of them yet after. But Kurumi was a Gryffindor, and he had no idea where Aurora was. So he decided to act like he knew what he was doing, but just ended up looking bored.

K-Lee smiled at a few nearby people. She was sort of bored. She probably should talk to someone.

She saw a boy nearby who looked around her age, though she didn't recognize him. "Hi, I'm K-Lee Soler." She introduced herself to him.

Iris grinned at the girl, "Well... Yeah. I do know. Hehe. Only 'cause other awesome people tell me that all the time, though." The Head Girl smiled a little, and glanced to the Gryffindor. She didn't like him already. At the statement about her and Aaron, Iris chuckled, and glanced to the doors. Where was he? "Well... Actually... Yes. It started out as friendship." No need to go into all the specifics, Iris. Hehe.

"Obviously he didn't. He just seems to think that PDA is necessary in a relationship. Which isn't true." Iris looked at the boy. Of course she wasn't going to be too hard on him. As Head Girl, she should be someone for the younger students to look up to, not someone for them to fear.

Iris ignored the boys comment. Clearly, Iris was talking to Hugo and Fee before he came along and butted in. Hypocrisy. Gotta love it.

Iris smiled. "I really appreciate your confidence in me, Hugo. You're a pretty cool kid, y'know that?" Fee was a very lucky girl. And Hugo was a lucky boy, because Fee was obviously aware of her luck. D'AWW. THEY'RE SO CUTE TOGETHER. Laughing as he told her to party hard, Iris shook her head. "Ahhh, you silly Third Year. It takes a balance of both!" She pretended that she didn't see his fist pump, but it was too difficult to have NOT noticed it. Giggling, Iris sighed. Hugo was definitely one of the kids she was going to miss next year.

The Head Girl looked at him with a dead pan expression. "Yes. Though, we weren't guests. We were his entertainment." Iris spat out the worrd "entertainment", like she was disgusted. Glancing over to the staff table, Iris nodded at his words. "It does seem odd. The Minister of Magic, also DADA professor. Methinks he's got a Time Turner lurking around somewhere."

Guess who wasn't going to enjoy DADA this term? IRIS! "I don't think he or his minions like me. I refused to get up and sing at the party. Should be a fun year."


As the Gryffindor clearly hit more nerves with Hugo than he did Iris, Iris watched the Ravenclaw carefully. Just in case he went too far. Luckily, the boy seemed to be able to control himself. Something he should be proud of, really. Nodding in slight appreciation, understanding and agreement, Iris just stared the gryffindor boy down. Hopefully he'd get the message that he wasn't wanted by the younger couple soon enough, before he seriously annoys someone. Iris didn't even need to say anything to Hugo. Fee had it all covered.

OI, SILLY GRYFFINDOR BOY. See that? How they work together? How they grin and smile? How she calmed him down instantly. THAT is love, kid. THAT.

He looked at the girl who has approached him and blinked for a second. Wow, he probably looked really dumb, but whatever.

"Hello K-Lee, I'm Vincent." He smiled a little lopsidedly, he was worn out from travelling so much in such a short time. "What year are you?" She looked about his age, anyway.

"She is a 5th year like us, he looked around for her. She should be here momentarily." he smiled softly. "I feel the same way."

Connor spotted his cousin Will talking to a girl. He walked up behind him, leaned on his cousin's shoulder and grinned. "Hey Will you trying to work that Starr charm again?" He held his hand out to the couple. "Connor Corun, Will's cousin." He introduced himself.

Danielle moved over to Connor, pushing her blonde curls over her shoulder as she looked for Belle. Hmm, where was she? She soon noticed Connor though and smiled as she waved at him, making her way over quickly, she noticed he was talking to a girl and smiled sweetly at her as she pulled her blonde curls into a suitably green ribbon and sat down next to him. "Hey you" she said softly, nudging him slightly and grinning at him- admittedly adoringly.

"Oh I see her," Isabelle said seeing the girl he was talking about. Now she remembered this girl. Why wasn't it clicking before? "Now I remember her."

Isabelle looked at Danielle and began to speak to her, "You may not recognize me, Connor here tells me you were at Beauxbaton also. I'm Isabelle Dupont and just came to Hogwarts this year. I think I recognize you a bit." She had a familiar face she wasn't dorming with Isabelle though so it wasn't to familiar.

She wasn’t hungry, or did she lose her appetite at the sight of Bissy’s sitting there at the Slytherin table? Realising Evelyn was irritated, Bissy became very happy but she was worried, too. They had to share a dorm. Common room, classes and the table in the Great Hall was OK but sleeping in the same place? It was really eerie.

Bissy finished her main course and started eating her dessert. She looked at Evelyn and asked with a smirk on her face: “How was your trip in the express? Hope you enjoyed yourselves.”, hoping it was spoiled.



“Oh, a second year? I thought you were a fourth year” she said smiling and added: “And thanks for your warm welcome.” Hearing the cute girl’s last words, her face fell. Evelyn? Her friend? NO WAY! She forced herself to be pleased with herself and said: “Well, errm, she is my friend to some extent, yes. I know her through a friend. I have known Josh, her boyfriend, for two years.” She started eating her dessert and after a few bites, she asked: “Where do you live by the way?”

Hugo blushed slightly and smiled. "It has come to my attention... Never really believed that when anybody said it," Hugo said not very loudly. Curse his stupid self-conciousness. He nodded. "I'm not very good at the balance, and if you're wondering to which side I'm leaning, just take a look at the logo on my robes," he chuckled pointing out his Ravenclaw badge.

"Entertainment?" Hugo asked finding it quite odd. "What did you have to do, do a little dance or something?" It seems he was rather lucky NOT to have gone, though it was easy to see that Hugo was quite jealous of the "chosen students" at the time. "I think he is way too busy to be a teacher-" A time turner? That would be a good way. But still. Minister of Magic? A professor? He didn't see it. "I always wondered, wouldn't often use of time travel mess you up? I mean, your internal clock must be protesting against that," he said, still staring at the empty seat.

"You had to SING?" Hugo asked. "That's quite humiliating! Well, I think you're going to be in better favour than that Lexi girl, I heard she said some pretty nasty things in his face," he said. Oh gossip. "Of course I wasn't there."


"Umm yes, I was waiting for a girl named Fee, maybe it would be nice to save a spot for her," he chuckled as he filled his goblet with some water. No more pumpkin juice. He had had enough and he was gonna get plumpy. He took a sip, made the "AHHHH" sound after drinking and set his goblet down. "That's my magic making Fee smile ability power thingamaging," he said and smiled brightly. "Yeah," Hugo agreed. "Well I have to be honest and say I don't like you because you have nice dresses," he said and snorted towards the Gryffindor table, "It's a contributing factor." he nodded.

"Oh yeah, it was pretty rainy and the ship was far away. I'm excited to hear more about this though," he said. YEAHH ADVENTURE TIME! "I guess the train just went faster," he said, then lowered his voice to epic levels. "Or there are mysterious circumstances-" He chuckled. "Not that we have never had mysterious circumstances at Hogwarts," Hugo giggled.

Hugo quickly looked at Iris, who seemed to have his back. Stupid stupid stupidness this was.

Hugo scratched his forehead. Did they ever meet? This kid was seriously confused. He raised an eyebrow at the boy. His calmness was annoying Hugo. "If you've got your own demeaning ideas about love than that is fine with me but don't tell me how to live by your ways!" he said, looking William straight in the eyes. "I love Fee both as a friend and as a girlfriend..." Hugo blushed. Did he really say he loved Fee? He always understood he was too young to be able to love... But looking at it this way anything other than what William Fee gave counted as love. He fell quiet instantly. He sat back down and shot an awkward smile at Fee.

K-Lee grinned at him, vaguely registering the fact that he looked tired. No room for people to be tired right now, "Nice to meet you Vincent, I'm a third year." She said happily.

"What year are you in?" She asked a moment later.

Katra walked into the Great Hall, scanning the Slytherin table for an empty seat. Seeing one towards the far end of the table, she quietly made her way over to it and sat down. She peered around, nodding politely, if a bit absently at those sitting around her before reopening her book. Occasionally bites from her plate were taken in between turning pages.

"That still doesn't explain the missing teachers though. I love a good mystery!" She grinned at Mordred.

"I wonder what the prefects will organise for the event this year. My brother said they've had some pretty awesome stuff. Like past alumni balls and things." Oh the speculating was wonderful!

Oh-no-she-DID-'NT.

Lola had evil thoughts in her head with this little girl, EVIL thoughts that... shouldn't really be said out loud. No one says that to Velma. Who says that to Velma?! NO ONE! She had the audacity to laugh at her, and didn't even apologize. Unacceptable. And what was that thing she had?! It was a furry little ball, and it made her lose most of her appetite.

"EW!" She said, pointing towards the little ferret, "Get that thing away from here!"

Now, if that thing was going to go near her--1) she had a wand & 2) forks.

Her eyes BUUUURNED with fiery when the girl decided to do that tongue-sticking-out-eyelid THING BECAUSE, no one! NO ONE!--ever does those sort of actions to the Lola. And there she was again, commanding orders, as if she would actually fall for them.

Well her legs were hurting. So she cautiously sat down, but mind you, this was for her legs, not for this silly little girl. "I still want an apology," she mumbled, but continued to flaunt out her green hair because she realized it was just so beautiful. Right? Right.

OHMAHGASH!

SIERRA!

Lola squealed from underneath her green wig, and then almost screamed out the words, "SIERRA! ILOVEYOU, MY BESTEST FRIENDDDD!" but stopped herself, and her head twitched, almost trance-like you could say. Stay in character, Lola Jones. STAY. IN. CHARACTER. LIGHTS!CAMERA!Action~

Velma was a very bossy woman. And so she reverted back to life, her finger again pointing to this ... Sierra person. "You," she pointed and then yawned, "Get me that a glass of drink, will yeh? Or else." That was a threat. Hmph. "Now." She retrieved a fork, and started stabbing some mashed potatoes, giggling at the sight of mashed potatoes... going more mashed. Hehe.

He shook himself off, trying to get the girl's happy mood to rub off on him. "Really me too!" He smiled, it was nice to know someone your age, and in your house. "Got any tips for me? I just transferred from India..."
