Creatures of the Darkness

Chapter 1

(AN: Hullo reader! I'm Willow Underwood (aka Weeping Willow aka xXPolyamorousAppleXx) and this is my first ever long format story! Hope you like itttt! ☠ )

Hi, my name is Winter Acid Blood Rain or Winnie for short. I was born on a dark and stormy night which is why I got my name. It suits me well, my name is cold, dark and mysterious like my aura. I am a witch and today is the first day of my seventh year at Hogwarts. Ugh, I hate this school. So many pricks shuffle around the halls living dreadfully meaningless lives every day. I hate everybody except for a few friends of mine.

When I get on the train on platform nine and three quarters I immediately look for them. After a few minutes of walking with my head down so my long black hair would cover my face, I reach I finally reach the last booth that seems somehow darker than the others. The door emits black steam and a sense of freezing cold lingers in the air around it. I smile a small smile, there's no way this booth isn't theirs's. I slide the door open and to my horror the people I find in the booth aren't my friends, but James Potter and his minions!!!

They're sitting inside with black cloaks that droop over their faces like harbingers of death. They have put many hematite stones in a circle to create the lingering cooling affect and each of them holds black candles with very long wickers, which is what's making the black smoke. Why have they lured me here? To gang rape me?! I am still a virgin! I don't want to get preagnant! I panic as these thoughts flash though my mind.

James turns to me and smiles. "Oh goody, we've caught us a nice evil Slyther-Slug."

The rest of his gang laughs as I continue to stay rooted in my seat. Then, suddenly James stand up and lifts his wand before me, "Locomotor Wibbly!" he yells, and just as his hand swishes and flicks, someone hauls me over and presses me to the back of the train, causing James's jinx to miss me.

My savior has let go of me and I lift my head to look up right into his dark gloomy eyes that glimmered with pain. It's Severus Snape, the guy I have been crushing on since the first day when I saw him being sorted into Slytherin, just like me.

"You shan't engage with them," Severus said with his deep dark voice.

I slowly feel my cheeks burning up, "I-" I manage to say before he turns around to James, who's standing in the hallway.

Severus takes out his wand and points it at James. "Leave, you don't want to mess with me boy!"

James scoffs and retaliates back to his booth, slamming the door shut.

"Thank you!" I finally manage to blurt out.

"You don't go to school to freeze and do nothing when danger's near y'know," he says and turns to me.

I lower my head shyly, I've never been more embarrassed in my entire life!

"What is your name, girl?" He asks me.

"Winter," I say.

"Like the darkest most mysterious and coldest season of the year," he mutters, looking at me up and down. "I'm Severus," he says coldly and walks away.

I stand there for a few moments until he disappears into a cabin and I go find my friends. The whole way to Hogwarts I sit beside the window thinking about Severus. He is so much cuter up close! And I think he liked my name, but that's not enough. I need to get better at spells.

(AN: I'd reaaaaaally appreciate your feedback! Thx bye~)
