Scarlett would attend the 6th year of education, in order to be with her fellow age students.
She was welcomed by Professor Mc. Gonagal who explained to her the rules of Hogwarts and also informed her that she would need to be chosen into a House. She also advised her to keep her family information to herself and to not share details with anyone. Even if she got sorted in Slytherin House, she could claim that she was indeed of foreign descent and leave it there.
It was as Minerva had foreseen the future, because Scarlett was chosen for Slytherin.
Minerva gave her the uniform and asked to her to change and she also arranged for her to meet with her new Head of House, Professor Severus Snape.
The young girl changed and before going to her appointment, she observed herself in the mirror. She wasn't very tall, only 1,65cm but she had long slim legs. She was overall very thin, but with balanced shoulders and nice bust. Her face was beautiful. She had her Mother's eyes, deep green almond shaped with thick eye lashes. Her hair was a medium brown with auburn strands. Her skin was porcelain white. She had high cheekbones, straight nose and medium sized lips with a great set of pearly white straight teeth. She liked her image.
She entered Professor Snape office, after hearing his deep voice confirming her that she was allowed in.
She curted and greeted his politely.
Severus arched an eyebrow upon seeing this. Well mannered... perhaps a bit too much, he thought.
He explained to her the Rules of Slytherin House and allowed her to go and have a rest.
The very next day she had Potions and Charms.
Snape was surprised to find that she was indeed an excellent Potion Maker, but he didn't congratulate her nor gave her any credit.
Scarlett liked her life at Hogwarts, despite keeping very private. She missed her little brother very much.
She left for the Burrow during Christmas break. It was a blessing being with her younger brother and the Weasleys.
She had become close friends with Ginny despite their inmates disapproval.
But just before settling in, they received an Invitation to spend Christmas at the Headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix. The invitation was of course accepted.
