The Dark Trio (The Philosophers Stone) Book 1

Her Last Stand

Bella's Flying lesson was over and it was killing her, Professor Dumbledore let her sit with her friends. She was quite happy to do so, Bella had all these mixed emotions and was finding it hard to figure out how and what was going on. She received a letter in the morning but she didn't open it. She was going to open it tomorrow at lunch. She sat with Ron and Luna since Harry and Jessica made a scene in Flying.

She was stabbing her food, she never liked pizza so she stabbed it. She was there stabbing it for another 5 minutes when I heard Jessica telling Luna she was a 'Seeker'

A seeker is the player on the quidditch team that either wins the game or loses the game for the team. The seeker needs to be small, thin, well balanced, fast and need good eye sight. They need to be able to dive and get a small golden winged ball called a snitch, not much bigger then a tennis ball.

Jessica was a perfect fit for this position, well just look at her and anyone could say. 'man she is probably a seeker' She was a born seeker. Bella was quite happy she didn't need to do any flying; she was scared of the air. After all that was the way she left each family she went to. She honestly would ban flying if she could but she has as much power as a baby does to a war. Nothing helpful.

She heard Malfoy come up to their group, she shut her eyes remembering the conversation they had . . . . . .

"Oh Draco I tend to agree with you, but I'm not sure she would be going home. You see Luna has a point she is quite smart, while you are just a pure-blood family with a lot of money. I would guess your parents had to pay Professor Dumbledore for you to come in cause your so thick in the head, and you shouldn't have offended my friend Malfoy!"

And then the punch replayed continually in her mind, it wouldn't go away then she heard

"you wont get away with this, Gaunt!"

"you wont get away with this, Gaunt!"

"you wont get away with this, Gaunt!"

"you wont get away with this, Gaunt!"

"you wont get away with this, Gaunt!"

then she heard her own haunting voice

"are we going to last name Malfoy? because I got the better ONE"

"You're a lot braver now that you're back on the ground and you've got your little friends with you, least when I get punched I got support! Bella told me your family pays for your friends, because they are all followers!" said Jessica. Bella seemed like she was always the excuse for fighting with Malfoy. 'Bella told me', 'Bella said' and 'Bella knows' this was rather frustrating since she did want to build a relationship with Draco. If she got put in Slytherin she need a friend, all her friends would leave her for it.

Draco gave Bella a death stare that she did not deserve, she got up and left leaving Harry and Jessica confused. She couldn't stand being with them, it hurts to much. She when up to her room to pack her many bags. An owl came into her room with a Letter, she decided she would open it later. She was going to leave Hogwarts for now, she would return when she could make up her mind what she was going to do.

12 hours later:

Its 7:50, her classes started in 10 minutes. She got ready and get straight to the classes getting there 4 minutes early. Professor Snape was there and she walked into the class room putting her books down. She organized her desk and opened her potion book while siting soundlessly at the back of the classroom. She was anticipating the Professor would ignore her presences, she did not want to fight on her last lesson. She waited for everyone to come inside the classroom.
