Starlight

Chapter 6

I woke up to my shoulder being shaken. I turn to look and Ami is there shaking me awake. Ami shoots me a smile as I sit up to get out of bed. 

"You will want to wake up around now every morning, there is a spell I can teach you so you will wake up on time. Also, you will want to get through the showers quickly. You will be sharing with the second years, as they had an uneven amount as well. They tend to take longer than most. If you want to, you can wake your fellow year-mates up. Now gather your stuff so I can point out where you will need to go." She smiled before looking around the room and nodding in satisfaction on what I had decided on. 

I grabbed my things as fast as possible and nodded at her to signal that I was ready. We walked up the stairs past 5 rooms to an ebony door. She opened it up and I looked in just to gasp. it was pretty, and I could see a separate space for showering. 

"I will be back in around 20 minutes, feel free to finish getting ready and head down t the common room. You will want to put your books in your bag before you go, so you don't have to come back for them. I can also charm your bag if you want, so it won't be as heavy and will fit all of your books with ease." She looks away shyly, she seems to not believe that anyone would want her help. That simply had to change.

"Thank you, Ami, I appreciate it. Truly you have been too kind to me."

"Nonsense, you are smarter than most think and you are willing to ask for help. So it is not a problem. Now go enjoy yourself while I get ready as well."

I then practically ran and went to the washroom. Then I went into the showers and just gasped. Everything was beautifully done, there were crystal doors with a chalkboard on the door, every other shower was taken, but since they were all the similar it was fine. They were made of marble with veins of jade flowing through, the water came from a showerhead made of silver. There was a silver hanger for a towel and shampoo, conditioner, and body wash supplied. 

Once I was done I brushed my teeth and my hair after I had dried it. I then ran to my room and got changed, seeing that there was still 10 minutes left, I grabbed the supplies for all my subjects and ran down to the common room.

I saw a boy come down from the boys part of the dorms and after I looked around for my minions. When they weren't there, I approached the boy. He seemed to be older than my minions so it was worth a shot.

"Hello, I have some friends up in that dorm, they are first years like me. If you could wake them up for me I would be thankful." I spoke with a smile but he just glared and sneered at me

"What would I get out of it. You are a first-year right? What could you possibly offer me that would make me do it?" I stood and thought for a moment before I remembered who I was.

"The favour of the Slytherin family."

"You can't give me that, you aren't descended from Salazar, you can't be. Not someone like you."

"I had an inheritance test in Gringotts, I am descended from Salazar himself. Unless you know of a better inheritance test, then don't attempt to contest me. Now, go and wake them or you have made an enemy of my family." My magic was swimming around me with such force that it started to push him back, "Do you understand?"

He looked afraid of me, even though he had more than enough skill to take me down. however, fear was a driving force in many lives. He wasn't worried about stopping me, he was too afraid to move. He mustered up the courage t nod quickly and I calmed down at record speed. 

"Yes, I will, I will I am sorry for doubting you. I will make sure they are up." He then practically ran away. I turned to see Ami in the passageway of the girl's dorms, she looked surprised and was smiling sadly at me.
