Harry and Isabella Potter & the Philosopher's Stone

Chapter 3 - Meeting Severus Snape

The start-of-term feast ended happily and tomorrow we'll be starting our classes. I met 8 Ravenclaws, 8 Hufflepuffs, 2 Slytherins and a lot of Gryffindors today. I walked with Draco, Hermione, Neville, Harry and Ron with the other Gryffindor first years while Percy Weasley the prefect led us to our common room.

"So you're my twin sister?" asked Harry for the hundreth time. "Yes I am." I replied. "Your family's rich, Harry. The Evans and Potters are both the richest pureblood families in the whole Wizarding World. Next to them are Blacks and my family, Malfoys." said Draco. "I envy you both." said Ron. "Purebloods? Rich?" asked Harry. "You see Harry, there are many types of wizards and witches. We are pure-bloods, Draco and Ron... and Neville are purebloods too. Mum and dad are both purebloods. We came from both pure-blood families and so does Draco, Ron and Neville.

"The second one are half-bloods. Half-and-halves. One of your parents may be magical, one doesn't. Some came from both magical families both with different aspects. One can be a Muggle-born and the other one can be a half-blood or pure-blood." I said.

"Muggle-borns are born from a non-magic family. Like me. I'm a muggle-born." Hermione said confidently.

"With us so far?" asked Draco and Harry nodded. Right as we finished talking, we finally reached the outside of the Gryffindor Common Room. There was a portrait of a Fat Lady and asked us a password. "Caput Draconis." said Percy the Prefect. He then faced the first years. "Your password is Pig Snout." The portrait opened like a door and inside was the Gryffindor Common Room. It was filled with the colours scarlet and gold, Gryffindor primary colours.

"Welcome, everyone, into the Gryffindor common room. You will find all of your belongings have been brought up to your room." said Percy. He directed us to our dormitories and I found out that Hermione and I are together in the same room with Parvati Patil.

"Hi Isabella!" greeted Parvati. "Hermione, isn't it?" she asked Hermione. "Yeah, just call me Mione." replied Hermione. "Izzy, Bells or Bella." I said. We all talked for about half an hour and finally we decided to sleep. I go to the washroom and put my pyjamas on. It had shades of green and yellow. Slytherin and Hufflepuff colours. I removed the bum from my hair and combed it. My hair was like my mum's. Blood red in color. Tonks told me that I was a metamorphmagus so I can change my appearance. I often use my metamorphmagus tricks. I always stick to who and what I am.

I went outside the washroom and came back to our room. Hermione had put a pink pyjamas with heart designs on it. Obviously it was muggle made. Parvati had a red pyjama pants and purple pyjama shirt. They both stare at me and smiled. "You look exactly like your mum!" Parvati complemented. I smiled. "You knew her? Many people say that to me." I said and she shook her head. "I saw her in my mum and dad's yearbook. She's very pretty, just like you." said Parvati. "You're pretty to, Parvati. Don't under estimate yourself." I said, making things cheer up. "We better sleep. We have to wake up early tomorrow." Mione said. "Mione's right." Parvati agreed. I nodded and we all send our goodnights to each other.

Parvati, Hermione and I woke up early and prepared everything we need for the whole day. I brought a red sling bag with all of my belongings inside and my 12 inches long, made of holly, unyielding and had a phoenix feather core. Ollivander said me, Harry and Voldemort (that's right! I'm not afraid to say his name) have the same wand cores, thus, making our wands as 'brothers'.

I put my robe on and made my hair into two bums. I tied the bums using a gold ribbon and went outside. Hermione and Parvati are already there and talking. They saw me and stood up. I walked up to them and greeted them. "What's our first subject?" I asked. "Transfiguration with Professor McGonagall." replied Hermione. We were about to leave when Draco came out from his room, all alone. "Hey Bells," he greeted. "Hey Drake!" I greeted back. "Oh hi Hermione... and ummm?" said Draco. Parvati smiled. "Parvati Patil. Just call me Parvati." answered Parvati. "Well nice meeting you, Parvati." Draco replied sincerely.

"Is your father mad, Draco?" I asked. He shook his head. "Well a bit, but no. Lucky he didn't disowned me. Mummy was proud of me saying that Gryffindor suits me 'cause i'm brave." he said. "Well that's weird." said Hermione. We reached our first subject, Transfiguration. "'Mione, mind saying what's our classes today?" asked Draco. "Well, we'll have Transfiguration with Slytherins, Astronomy with Ravenclaws, Herbology with Hufflepuffs, History of Magic with the Ravenclaws again, Defence Against the Dark Arts, then Potions with Slytherins again." explained Hermione. "Most of our classes are with Slytherins," said Draco boringly. All of us agreed with him.

The classes went fast and somewhat kind of boring. Transfigurations was fun since the Slytherins can't bother us because of Professor McGonagall. Astronomy, Herbology and History of Magic went well. Defence Against the Dark Arts was sheepish. Professor Quirell keeps on stuttering and it's irritating. Potions was worst. Snape kept on taunting Harry. I don't know what the hell is wrong with the emo bat. He asked Harry about things he didn't knew since he grew up with those filthy muggles and my squib aunt. (A/N: Dudley was a half-blood but I made him a squib. I don't really like the idea of Dudley being a wizard so...) I was irritated about that Snape guy so I answered him, "Professor, Harry stayed with my squib aunt and cousin and my muggle uncle that hates magic. Do you really think he would know such things?" and he took a point from Gryffindor house and told me never to say such things in front of a professor. Draco was outraged but didn't speak. "I'll make father talk to him." said Draco as we walked to the Great Hall for the start-of-term banquet.
