"Snape."

"Yeah?" Stephanie turned around to see Marcus Flint.

"Congratulations. You're the new Slytherin seeker."

"Really!?"

"Yeah. This isn't for fun by the way. I take this seriously and I refuse to lose to Gryffindor."

"I feel the same way."

"Great." Flint smirked. "If you get badly injured then Malfoy will be your replacement."

"Ok.. Thank you."

"Practice is later today at three." Once Flint walked away, she squealed. She was the new Slytherin seeker. She beat Malfoy.

Stephanie was sitting next to Draco in defense against the dark arts when someone interrupted.

"Let me introduce you to your new Defense Against the Dark Arts Teacher. Me. Gilderoy Lockhart, Order of Merlin, Third Class, Honorary Member of the Dark Force Defense League and five times winner of Witch Weekly's Most- Charming-Smile Award. But I don't talk about that. I didn't get rid of the Bandon Banshee by smiling at her!" He waits for laughter, however, he was greeted with silence. "I see you've all bought a complete set of my books. Well done. I thought we'd start today with a little quiz. Nothing to worry about. Just to check how well you've read them, how much you've taken in..." he hands out papers. It was a quiz all about him. Stephanie looked at the questions and scoffed. "You have thirty minutes. Start now!"

Stephanie started to doodle on the paper. She drew a picture of Draco getting struck by lightning. She showed the picture to Draco, who glared at her. She smirked and wrote on her paper. 'That's what you get for sitting next to me. I hate you so stop sitting next to me.' She showed it to Draco again. She then kept doodling until time was up. He collected the papers and looked through it.

"Tut, tut. Hardly any of you remembered my favorite color is lilac. But Miss Hermione Granger knew that my secret ambition is to rid the world of evil and market my own range of hair care potions. Good girl." Stephanie scoffed at the girl.

"Stupid mudblood." Stephanie muttered.

"Now... be warned! It is my job to arm you against the foulest creatures known to wizardkind! You may find yourself facing your own worst fears in this room. Know only that no harm can befall you whilst I am here... I must ask you not to scream. It

might provoke them." Lockhart takes the cover off the cage revealing Cornish pixies.

"Cornish pixies?" Seamus said.

"Freshly caught Cornish pixies. Laugh if you will, Mr. Finnegan, but pixies can be devilishly tricky little blighters. Let's see what you make of them now!" Lockhart opens the cage. That idiot. The pixies sprayed students with ink bottles, broke beakers, and shredded books.

"Come on now, round them up, round them up. They're only pixies. Peskipiski Pesternomi!" The spell had no effect. A pixie stole his wand, so Lockhart ran out the room. Draco grabbed Stephanie's wrist and dragged her out of the room. Fortunately, the pixies didn't do anything to Stephanie since Draco took all the sprayings of ink; Stephanie basically used him as a human shield.

"Thank you.." Stephanie said.

"Whatever."

—————————

"Clear out, Flint! I booked the pitch for Gryffindor today."

"Easy, Wood. I've got a note." Wood snatches the note and begins to read it.

"'I, Professor Severus Snape, do hereby give the Slytherin team permission to practice today, owing to the need to train their new Seeker.' You've got a new Seeker? Who?"

Stephanie steps forward, Draco right next to her.

"You're not the new seeker, Malfoy. Go back to the back, replacement." He glared at her.

"Stephanie?" Harry said.

"That's right. And that's not all that's new this year." Draco said.

The Slytherin team showed off their new brooms. Stephanie smiled. She was happy for herself and was more happy now that they had an advantage to winning the quidditch cup.

"Those are Nimbus Two Thousand Ones." Weasel said.

"A generous gift from Draco's father."

"That's right, Weasley. You see, unlike some, my father can afford to buy the best." Stephanie smirked at this comment.

"At least no one on the Gryffindor team had to buy their way in. They got in on pure talent." Granger said.

"No one asked your opinion, you filthy little Mudblood." Draco said in a nasty tone.

"You should learn your place, mudblood." Stephanie said. Draco high fived her.

Instantly, Fred and George fly for Stephanie and Draco's throat. Oliver Wood holds them back.

"Save it for the match."

"You'll pay for that one, Malfoy and Snape! Eat Slugs!"

Ron points his cracked wand at the two. He then drops on the grass and Hermione runs to him.

"Ron! Say something!"

Ron puked out a slug. Disgusting. The Slytherin team bursts out in laughter.

"That's karma for you, Ron. Don't talk about my mother ever again." Stephanie said while smiling. A little boy runs up to Ron.

"Wow! Can you hold him still, Harry!?"

"Get out of the way, Colin! Let's take him to Hagrid. He'll know what to do." They carry Ron to Hagrid's "house".

"Shall we practice now?"

Stephanie was walking with Draco following her when they saw something weird. Stephanie and Draco pushed through the front of the crowd.

"Enemies of the heir, beware! You'll be next, Mudbloods!" Draco said. Both Stephanie and Draco smiled at Hermione.

"What's going on here? Go on now! Make way... Mrs. Norris!" Stephanie just noticed the not moving cat. She gasped. She loved animals, especially Mrs. Norris. Stephanie was always nice to her and Mr. Filch. She talked to him before she went to Hogwarts. Sometimes she went on trips to Hogwarts with her father. Mr. Filch took care of her while he was teaching. He let her pet Mrs. Norris and give her treats. He took a liking to Stephanie. Since she goes to Hogwarts now, he let her roam around at night without any consequences. The teachers let her too, Professor Snape's request, so Stephanie can explore and stuff. Stephanie didn't like the scene before her. She loved the cat and she knew how much Mr. Filch loved her too. She cares so much about Mrs. Norris, if that happened to her snake then she wouldn't know what to do. It's heartbreaking seeing your pet lying dead. "You! You've murdered my cat!

I'll kill you! I'll-"

"Argus!" Dumbledore approaches the scene. "Everyone will proceed to their dormitories immediately. Everyone except you three."

Stephanie and Draco went back to the common room.

"Poor Mrs. Norris..."

"Who cares. It's a stupid cat!"

"Shut up Malfoy! I have a soft spot for her and all animals. Now if you don't mind I'm heading to bed goodnight Malfoy."

"It's funny how you like animals and you're a pig." Stephanie stopped dead in her tracks. She turned around.

"What did you say?" She said slowly.

"You're a pig. A big fat hog!"

"You're just jealous because I got seeker and you're just a backup!"

"Well at least I'm on the team! Let's pray you get injured!"

"You bitch!" She punched him in the nose. "Goodnight Malfoy!" She stormed off to her dorm, changed into her pajamas and fell asleep.
