The next day, Scilla heard that Neville got hurt last night. She didn't waste any time and went to the hospital wing.

Neville was on one of the bed. Luckily it's not a serious injury. He mainly stayed the night there because Madam Pomfrey threatened him.

"What happened?"

"Uhh.. Yesterday, Ronald made a comment that upset Hermione. And I noticed she wasn't in the great hall for dinner. Parvati said she was crying in the girls bathroom. She didn't know about the troll.. So.. Uh.. I went to warned her.." He trailed off.

"But?"

"But.. The troll was already there, so I- um.. Tried to fight it?" He said unsure.

Scilla knocked her head on the mattress Neville was on lightly.

"Gryffindor." She sighed.

"Sorry.."

"And you win?" Scilla glanced at her Gryffindor friend.

"Of course. I use Levitating Charm to lift it's club and dropped it at it's head. Thank you, for helping me with the spell." He grinned.

Scilla lightly knocked his head.

"Come on. Madam Pomfrey said you can go. Let's go have breakfast." Scilla helped Neville get up and they went to great hall.

She pulled him to the Slytherin table. Many from the Gryffindor looked shocked at Neville.

They never really showed their friendship in public after all. And most in Gryffindor sees Neville as a shy and cowardice boy.

Draco saw the two and scoot over, making space for Neville to sit.

"You okay, Nev?" Theo asked.

Their group of friends were also quite worried for him. They would've come visit him with Scilla, but they're not sure whether there's other Gryffindor or not there. They like Neville, but that doesn't mean they like Gryffindor. They were still enemies after all.

Neville smiled at his friends and nodded. Before he met Scilla that day at the greenhouse, he always thought he would spend his school day alone. Who would've thought he have friends that worry about him now. And Slytherin at that.

Scilla went to sit between Theo and Blaise, who gave her a plate of her favorite breakfast.

At the Gryffindor table, the students from all years are whispering to each other. This, after all, was a first. A Gryffindor sitting at the Slytherin table.

A pair of red heads looked at each other and stood up, making a few heads turned to them.

The Weasley twins went to the Slytherin table and each slung and arm over Scilla's shoulder, who already expected it.

Blaise and Theo scoot over when they saw the mischievous twins approaching.

"You know that I'm heiress to two prominent house right?"

The twins grinned before taking their hands.

"We know." They both said cheekily.

Scilla rolled her eyes at them fondly. The three of them start discussing about the twins newest invention and plans for their prank. Scilla giving them a few ideas. She was raised by two marauders after all.

Their friends looked at the three of them in horror. Especially Draco who had been a victim of one of Scilla's prank.
