We were in Professor  Mcgonagall's office, sat in three chairs in front of her desk. Mcgonagall was sat in her chair, watching each little movement we made.

"I am very disappointed in all of you" She said, in a grave voice. "Destroying school property and attempting to sneak of school grounds. You are very lucky that Mr. Filch found you and that you weren't hurt."

"But Profesor..... It was only a bit of fun" Fred said

"Thank you for that assessment, Mr. Weasley " She said, giving him a stern look. " I will be taking 50 points from each of you."

"But Profesor...." I started but she cut across me

"And a detention with me tomorrow night. 6pm sharp"

"WHAT!" Fred blurted out "Tomorrow's the end of term feast" 

"I am well aware of that Mr Weasley. You will attend the feast but each of you will have 50-" she was cut of by Snape storming through the door and saying

"Professor, I do believe Miss Weasley belongs in my house and therefore I should be dealing with her punishment." 

"Yes indeed, go with Professor Snape Miss Weasley. He will decide your punishment." She said curtly as I stood up out of my chair and walked out of the room, briefly glancing up at George as I passed. He winked at me.

Once out side of Mcgonagall's office Snape rounded on me and hissed,

"What were you doing?! Sneaking off school grounds and fraternizing with Gryffindors."

"I wasn't sneaking off grounds I was exploring that corridor and those Gryffindors are my brothers, my triplet brothers." I said back.

"You are A Slytherin!" He said "Act like it!" and walked of down the corridor. He turned on his heel just before he reached the end and called out "You will attend Professor Mcgonagall's detention. See how you like Gryffindors then."

I turned around, muttering under breathe and headed back down to the common room. Daph and Addy were sat by the fire toasting pieces of bread in the fire and laughing at the first years who were trying to transfigure matches into needles. I sat down next to them and continued to watch the firsties. 

Addy turned to me and asked "What happened to you?"

"Our Mischief wasn't managed." I said "And Snape is mean." As Daph leaned over to me and whispered,

"They're so cute aren't they?" pointing to the first years she was still watching. 

"Yeah" I agreed "I've got to help them." I got and and walked over to them and approached the nearest girl. I tapped her on the shoulder and said "It's all about the flick at the end" 

She jumped slightly and turned around to face me. "What?"

"That spell. It's all about the flick" I said "Here, let me show you." I pulled out my want and waved it it a circular motion with a sharp flick at the end. After I was finished, she picked up the needle and said,

"How did you do that?"

"Practise. Here now you try." I replied and she picked her wand up, pointing it at another match she waved it in the match turned sliver and pointy." I walked away and checked my watch, it was almost nine o'clock. So I bid goodnight to Daph and wandered up to our dorm. The room had gotten bigger this year, and enlace its self with silver strands in the black paint of the walls. Each bed had the Slytherin logo on the bed sheets with the motto - Potentia Par Vis. (Power Is Our Strength) -  inscribed underneath. I pulled my knitted pajamas on - The green ones with an 'I' on from mum - and climbed into bed. I fell asleep soon after dreaming of home and earlier days where our Triplet mischief was managed. 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We were sat in the kitchen of the burrow, eating breakfast and teasing Ron about going to Hogwarts. 

"Aww is ickle Ronniekins scared he'll be a Slytherin?" Fred teased

"Is he scared he'll be stuck with only his big sister for company?" I asked, punching him lightly on the shoulder.

"Shut up!" he said. His ears starting to turn red.

"Or worse he might have Hufflepuff material." Fred said in fake shock. 

"Yeah you could be buddies with pretty boy Diggory"  George chimed in.

"Oh stop it you three" mum said "Ron could be in any house and we still love him"

"Yeah but he'll be bitter if he not in Gryffindor"  I muttered and the spoke louder "You're all going down though. I've never lost a Quidditch match yet" 

"Oh yeah yeah" Fred drawled

"We might get some fresh meat this year" George continued 

"I wonder who got captain this year. Mine and your left didn't they" I mused

"Oliver Wood was pretty keen. The Keeper" He added at my look of confusion.

"Well on that disappointment" I said "I'm going to go into the village and  see if I can find Luna"

"Well wrap up warm dear" mum said and handed my a new jumper. It was Silver and had a coiled snake on the front - My new favourite.

I found Luna in the meadow at the side of the town waiting for me. She had her dirty blonde pulled back in a plait with daisy's scattered down the braid. 

"Immy, hey" She called. This little 10 year old had the purest heart. She always liked to go into town and get a cocoa in the cafe on the high street.

"Hi Luna. Did you have a good summer?" I asked her as we started off down the road.

"Yeah.... Daddy took my Crumple Horned Snorkack hunting" She said dreamily. The village of Ottery Saint Catchpole was very quiet on the Muggle front, occasionally a car? would pass through but nothing really exciting ever happened here. Well that was until that day when I was walking down the street holing hands with Luna and a car came racing sown the road and hit a 6 year old boy, who ran into the road to escape his mother. The muggle Healers couldn't do anything. I heard them say so as the Polize men? Asked me what happened. 

I walked Luna back to her house and then went back home. Mum was all fussy about it, but I just wanted to go to bed. So once I rebuffed all her attempts to make me soup, I climbed up the stairs and pushed the door of our Bedroom open. Fred and George were sat on my bed waiting for me. They said nothing as I came and sat down in between them, the tears already rolling down my face as I curled up between them and cried myself to sleep.

You know, Luna and I didn't even get a cocoa.
