After the whole Regulus situation was done, Scilla finally returned to Hogwarts. Regulus stayed in Malfoy Manor under Narcissa's watch. Severus, as much as he wish to stay with his long lost lover, had to return to Hogwarts.

He never once left Regulus side when he was still in the Malfoy's. Dutifully watching over the younger Black and kept him companied after a tearful reunion.

Scilla and Regulus surprisingly hit it off really well immediately. Both have lots of similar taste.

Before leaving for Hogwarts, Scilla had to remind Marvolo not to hurt her 'Uncle Reggie' constantly, much to Regulus horror. Knowing his Lord's temper, Regulus was expecting him to crucio his niece.

Much to his surprise though, the Dark Lord simply flicked her forehead and promised her he won't curse him, successfully causing his jaw dropped.

"Did I miss something?" He asked Severus who looked amused.

"Lots of things, Love."

"Scilla? Where are you going?" Theo asked the raven head girl from his spot.

"Out. I'm bored here. Do you want to come with me?"

Theo shrugged, closed his book and followed the Potter heiress out. He was also bored in the common room, it was weekend so there are no class. Draco, Blaise, Pansy and Daphne were nowhere to be found, and he'd rather not spend time with Crabbe and Goyle.

The two of them walked through numerous corridors with no destination, lost in their conversation about multiple subjects.

They rarely spend time together, since Draco would hog her most of the time. It was nice spending time with Theo, who is more calm than the Malfoy heir.

"Why did Lockhart leave so suddenly?"

"Who cares, Thee. He's not qualified to be a teacher in the first place."

"Yeah. I really hope we get a decent teacher next year. First year was a stuttering mess, and second year a bumbling idiot."

"Amen, Thee. Amen." Scilla sighed tiredly.

The two of them stopped their tracks when they saw a blonde first year standing in the middle of empty corridor barefoot, looking up.

"Are you alright?" Scilla approached the first year Ravenclaw.

"Where are your shoes? It's freezing out here." Theo added, looking quite worried at the little first year.

"Hello." The girl greeted them with a smile before looking up again.

Both Scilla and Theo looked up and saw a pair of shoes hanging up high. Scilla sighed and wordlessly summon it. She crouched down and placed the shoes before the blonde first year.

"Thank you, my Lady." Scilla's movement halted hearing that.

"How did it get up there?" Theo was used hearing the twins called her that, he didn't even question it.

"I'm not sure. But I suspect the Nargles are behind it." She answered, when Scilla stood back.

"What's a Nargles?" Theo whispered to his housemate.

Scilla shrugged, having no idea herself. Scilla once again looked at the first year Ravenclaw before her carefully. Only then she noticed something. Her aura is familiar.

"I'm Scilla Potter-Black-Prince, and he's Theo Nott. And you are?"

"Oh. I'm Luna Lovegood." She reached out her hand for a shake.
