"Arabella wake up you're going to be late for your first day," my mother Bellatrix woke me up. Today is the day I start at Hogwarts something about helping Draco Malfoy and watching Snape. I need to watch over Harry Potter. God I hate him already. My father has told me many things about him, I've heard about the stuff that he's done, the great Harry Potter. Little does Harry know that unless he kills me, my father cannot he killed. That's right, I'm a horacrux, a very powerful horacrux as well, me and my father channel each other's power, along with other things. Which is why when he has been in battles with Harry Potter he has been able to escape mainly unharmed. The things I want to do to Potter.

"Morning mum," I said squinting my eyes.
"Good morning sweetheart, get dressed I need to take you to the train station before anybody else sees us,"
"Okay," I said and got ready.

I did my hair, my makeup and put on a pair of ripped jeans, a black shirt and a cream coat.

I walked downstairs to my father for breakfast.
"Good morning Arabella,"
"Morning dad," I smiled.
"Do you know what you need to do?"
"I know exactly what I need to do don't worry I've got it,"
"If you get into trouble tell Serverus he will help you, have you got everything?"
"I will, yes I have everything, my bags, my wand and Lilith." Lilith is my snake, she's Nigini's child, she's a serpente della morte very, very dangerous but she won't attack unless I tell her to. I speak parcel tongue so I can interact with her.

"Go on then darling, cause some trouble," my mother whispered in my ear as she left me at the platform

After a few minutes the train pulled up and people started to come, instantly I spotted the Weasleys, Harry and Hermione. Ugh. They make me want to throw up. Then I saw Draco, finally a familiar face. I barely know him but I know of him and I've met him a few times at our big meetings.

I sat down on the train by myself in the stall opposite Harry, Hermione and Ron. So far they were talking about Draco being a death eater, Harry thinks he is, the other two don't. Fantastic.
I wrote a note and did a small spell to sent it to my father.
"Mana la lettera," I whispered and the letter went up in flames.
"Who is she?" I heard Hermione say what the thought was quietly.
"I don't know but she looks like a model," Ron said. I might spew.
"She's beautiful," Harry said. Oh god even worse
"Whatever, she's just broken one of the rules I don't think she's 17 and we are not in school yet, you two can't go two minutes for goodness sake. I think somethings off about her." Hermione said, I could feel her eyes glaring at me.
"Whatever I'm going to speak to her," Ron said. I saw a figure sit opposite me and I looked up.
"Hello," I smiled.
"Hi, I'm Ron Weasley what's your name?" He asked me.
"Arabella, Arabella Black." What can I say I like surprises.
"It's nice to meet you Arabella, if ever you wanted to hang out you can come and find me and my friends unless you're a Slytherin." He joked.
"What's so bad about Slytherin?" I asked his face turned almost quite serious and before I knew it all three of them were sat in front of me.
"They're disloyal, they're liars." Hermione said as if it was obvious.
"Really or are they cunning? Ambitious? Intelligent?" I asked.
"Definitely not," Harry piped up.
"I suppose I won't be in Slytherin then," I lied.
"Excuse is a moment," Hermione said. It's a good chance to feed Lilith anyway.
"Ssssss ss sssssssss sssss sssss sss ss ssssssss sssssss s," that's parcel tongue for hello Lilith are you ready for your food?

Ive always loved snakes they're a bit like me, misunderstood completely. I gave Lilith her rat and she ate it in seconds.
"Sssssss sss sssssssssssss sss." Lilith said. (I want another one)
"Ssss sssssss," i told her. (Later)

"You speak parcel tongue?" A voice from behind me spoke. Harry.
"Yes I do," I smiled.
"So do I," his parents couldn't and I don't think he is that special.
"Do you have a snake?" I asked him.
"No apparently it is a rare gift,"
"It is a rare gift, if you're born with it, my father had it and so do I. One of your parents is likely to have it, if they did have it it is easier to pick up but if you're just born with it, it's rare"
"I was born with it," he said almost bragging.
"Well then we are both very rare," I flirted.

When we arrived at Hogwarts I had to speak to Snape who had someone take my bags he wanted to take Lilith but that is never happening. When I walked into the hall I heard the name Tom Riddle. That was my fathers name. Before he was Lord Voldemort.
"We have a new student transferring into the 6th year her name is Arabella Riddle." The whole room went really loud all of a sudden, some looked at me with fear, most of the Slytherin's with awe and some looked at me in disgust, the Gryffindors .
"Silence!" Dumbledore shouted the whole room went quiet, all you could hear was Lilith quietly hissing.
"Come miss Riddle to the sorting hat," he sat me down in front of everyone on a stool. He placed this smelly old hat on my head.
"Sneaky, loyal, incredibly intelligent, cunning, ambitious and dangerous. Slytherin!" The hat said.
I smiled to myself and walked to the Slytherin table.
"Arabella sit here!" A young girl said she had straight brown hair and she was quite pretty, also sitting opposite her was Draco.
I went and sat next to her.
"So the question everybody wants to know, who are your parents?" She asked me.
"My mom's name is Bellatrix Lestrange." I smiled.
"Is your dad really Tom Riddle?" She asked me.
"No it's not, it's complicated." It's not complicated at all but it's better than everyone knowing he's my dad.
"Do you know Draco then?" She asked.
"Not really we've seen each other around," I smiled at him which he returned.
"May I have a word Miss Riddle?" I heard Snape from behind me. I got up and walked out of the hall with him.

"Don't tell them who you're father is, just tell them about your mother, say Riddle is a name your mother gave you to protect you. Understand?"
"Yes I understand,"
"Good now go, I've put your bags in your dorm, you share it with Pansy Parkinson the girl you were just sat next to,"
"Okay thanks, bye," I smiled and went back to the table.

Before I realised it Lilith was on the table looking up at me with a letter in her mouth. I took it from her and opened it. In it it read:

Arabella be careful, do not associate yourself with me,

Dad.

"Incendia," I whispered and the letter quickly went up in flames luckily nobody saw it.
I wrote him a letter saying:

Don't worry I won't, you'll be proud of me I got into Slytherin.

"Mana la lettera" I said again,' went up in flames and sent to my father.
"Do you know any fun things to do?" Pansy asked.
"I have an idea," I said and pulled out a piece of paper, a pen and my wand.
"What is it?" A two boys asked me both sat next to Draco.
"I know what it is," Draco smirked and I returned the look.
"Just watch Harry Potter's face," I told them all.
"Imprinta," I directed my wand towards the pen and paper. With my pen I wrote: Watch your back.

I turned around and he was looking at his hand in clear discomfort, Ron and Hermione were looking at him concerned.
"Nice one Arabella," a boy said to me, he was very handsome.
"You can all call me Bella." I smiled.
"I'm Blaise," he smiled back at me.
"So Bella do you have any plans tonight?" Pansy asked.
"No why?"
"Slytherin is having a party,"
"Sounds like fun," I smiled devilishly.
"It will be, we can get ready together, come on let's show you your room," Pansy took my hand and lead me to our room.
