Shadow Riddle: A Harry Potter Fan Fic

Draco and Me

It was my first day. I was nervous. I knew no one, having lived with muggles for so long. I knew both my parents, as they were both wizards but I had been given away to muggles when my mum died and my dad could not look after me.

I was just about to nod off to sleep on the train when a tallish blond boy knocked then opened the door. "Everywhere else is full so me and my friends are going to sit in here" the boy rudely strides in and sits down "I'm Draco, Draco Malfoy" "Shadow, Shadow Riddle" He looks up. "I know that name from somewhere. Not sure where but somewhere." I know where though. His farther works for my dad. My real dad. I don't point this out because working for my dad isn't something really to be proud of. "This is Crabbe and this is Goyle." I gingerly wave, not sure whenever I should make friends with mr. Perfect and his band of moneys.

When the train finally arrives at Hogwarts we were greeted by a big man who yells "first years follow me" before getting into a convasation with two boys. I clamber into a boat on the lake with two girls. The water is still and dark with the reflection of the moon lighting it up. On the other side of the lake there is a tall castle "Hogwarts" I mumble under my breath.

I look at the other boats. The one to my right is Draco's boat, of which he is having to lean out of to stop it from tipping. I start giggling. Draco instantly looks up and pulls a face.

We walk into the castle. It is old and worn but sturdy and made of thick stone. We have to walk up several flights of stairs before being greeted at the top by and oldish teacher. "Welcome to Hogwarts", Miss McGonagall starts " when they are ready for you, you will walk through these doors into the dining hall. There you will assemble at the front and be sorted into your houses." I know that I'm going to be put in slitheyn. Well I think I am. Both my parents were slitheryn. "I will go see when they are ready"

I don't know what to think. I am scared, bewildered and extremely extatic. I might just have a chance to start again. And I will not be the bully's victim anymore. I have been thinking so much I didn't notice that Draco had got into an argument with my father's own enemy, Harry Potter.

"Keep a close eye on him and Draco" a voice says behind me. I know that it is my farther talking in my head. "You never know, they could take you somewhere."

I come out of my convasation when Miss McGonagall comes back out. I take a step into the hall and I'm gob smacked. There is four massive tables, "one for each house" someone behind me says. I look up and see that the roof. It has got a spell on it to make it look like a night sky and all the candles are floating among the stars.

We gather at the end of the hall whilst Professor Dumbledor says a few words which I'm not paying attention to. Then the names start being called to sit on the chair and get sorted into house. I hear a few names, Hermione Granger, Ronald Weasly, Draco Malfoy, Carmen Walsh, Sophie dragoon, Harry Potter and then finally I hear it "Shadow Riddle" this is it. I step up and sit on the stool "hmmmm." The hat says above me "interesting very interesting let me see we will put you in:........
