Love And War

Chapter one

"Mum it's fine," I looked down and then looked back up trying to avoid her eyes in hope that she would buy my terrible lies. "It's just...It would have been nice for him to see his only daughter off". My eyes finally landed on hers and she smiled weakly
"I know dear but you know he had to go to the-"
"The Ministry I know". She took my hand and gave it a gentile squeeze along with a heart warming smile.
"At least you won't be alone...Draco will be there"
"No Mum" I whined seeing the platinum blonde walking towards us with his mother by his side. I lowered my voice and looked back at my mother and spoke between my fake smile. "Not Malfoy...he annoying"
"Play nice Karina"
The family approached us and my mother and Mrs. Malfoy started to speak.
"Are you excited"
"To attend a school for seven years without being able to escape you...Barely" my mom placed her hand on my shoulder and squeezed a bit.
"Oh look the train's coming"
 I looked at my mom and she smiled at Draco and Narcissa smiled at me. I sighed and smiled pitifully at Draco and looked back at my mother. She crouched down to get at my eye level and placed both hands on my shoulder.
"You're going to do great. I know you are. Be nice. Learn a lot and have fun. I'm sorry again about your Father"
"It's fine Mum can you just have him send me a letter"
"Of course honey"
She handed me my luggage and gave me the kennel holding my pet cat Elis. I smiled at my mom and then frowned "Can you remind me again why I couldn't bring my pet snake"
"The only pets allowed are a cat, an owl, or a toad"
"But they have a rat". I pointed to a family of 6 redheads and a brunette with glasses. My mom lowered my hand and pointed at me.
"We do not point"
"Your pointing at me...Sorry Mum"
"Now come on you too or you'll miss it"
"Ok ok no pushing... please have father write to me"
"I will dear"
She hugged me and I quickly boarded the train grabbing a compartment closest to the door and looked out the window. I looked at my mum and waved as the train started moving.
"I know I'm getting Slytherin just like my mum, just like my dad just like my-"
"Before you tell me your whole family tree I'm going to go freshen up"
"For how long"
"How long is the train ride"
"About nine hours"
"Yeah I think I'll be gone for about nine hours" I smiled and walked out of the compartment and bumped into a girl. Her honey toned skin glowed naturally, she had Hazel eyes with shoulder length straight jet black hair with the ends dyed red. She had a slim build with a red shirt that read Gryffindor and black jeans with white vans on.
"Are you okay it looks like you're running from someone"
"Picture scrappy doo in human form, platinum blonde hair, grey eyes, 4'9 and 20 times more annoying"
"Sounds terrible"
"Yeah... We grew up together. Supposed to be best friends, Only I hate him our parents are the best friends. Have I mentioned I hate him"
"Once or twice here come with me"
I followed her to another compartment and there were two other girls there.
"Aine, Ella this is I'm so sorry I didn't get your name".
She sat down and started to pet her small Yorkie Terrier with a diamond collar.
"My name is Karina. Karina Demarco"
"You're the daughter of the Italians right"
"Oh my dad's Italian my mom is British"
"Yeah, Yeah my best friend's father might work with your dad. This is"
"Ella Slytherin"
My attention went to a girl wearing a Blue sweater with black pants and blue shoes to match. She had pale white skin with light brown eyes. She was slim with a curvaceous form. 
"Yeah crazy huh an actual Slytherin...You know you too might be related your moms-"
"Aubriella Gaunt"
"both heirs of Slytherin" she got up and walked out the compartment and started to yell "LADIES AND GENTLEMEN WE HAVE ROYALTY ON THIS TRAIN".
I sat down next to the dog and looked at the girls. "Do you know her"
"Not at all got here late had to take this compartment then I met her"
I looked at the girl sitting next to her. Blonde hair with light skin and green eyes she wore black pants paired with a yellow hoodie and black and yellow vans just like Ella she was slim with a curvaceous form. "What's your name"
"Aine O'Clery"
"Are you guys first years too"
"Yeah"
"Are you nervous too"
"Kinda" I said looking out the window and seeing the beautiful scenery. "Do you guys have any siblings"
"No"
"Me neither. Only child my father wanted a boy. My mum wanted a girl...she won....How long have you guys known each other?"
"As long as we know you actually, total strangers"
"Ah.. right you said that already" I looked around and then spoke again "What house do you think you guys will get"
"I'm pretty sure I'll be a Slytherin" 
"That's true the whole Slytherin thing. What about your Aine" 
"I think I'll be Hufflepuff"
"Nice! Also sorry if I'm talking a lot, I tend to talk a lot when I'm nervous. You guys seem cool" "You seem pretty cool too... Did you bring a pet"
"Yeah I wanted to bring my snake but my mum said no it wasn't allowed so I brought my cat named Elis...Don't really remember why I named him that. I got him when I was eight"
"I saw a boy with a rat earlier"
"That's what I said!"
"I brought-"
"I'm back children"
"Children? We can be the same age as you are"
"You're not I'm already in my third year you're barely starting your first one"
"That's only a two year difference"
"That's a total 730 days"
"Not necessarily"
"Kinda"
I rolled my eyes and looked at the girl "What's your name"
"Ximena Black"
"Black? Malfoy's mom's last name is Black does your dad have a sister"
"No Malfoy's mum is my dad's cousin so that makes us related down the line or some shit"
"Shits a bad word"
"For children"
"Your only two years older than us"
"Still older"
"Can I see your cat"
Aine interrupted and I looked at her and mouthed a silent thank you and got up. "I'll be just a moment" I walked out and heard the older girl say
"Man she's annoying"
"Yeah she the one" Ella said sarcasm obviously dripping from her lips. 
I quickly walked to the compartment with Malfoy and he stood up when he saw me "Don't get too excited I'm only here for my things" 
"Why were are you going"
"Sitting with some new friends... I suggest you get some" 
"Already did"
"Oh yeah what are their name""
"Crabbe and Goyle...Not sure whos who but I asked them to go get me some snacks" 
"Don't your legs work" 
"They do" 
"So use them. Just because your house elf's aren't here doesn't mean you use other people Draco they're people" 
"What are your new friends blood line" 
"Does it matter?" 
"Of course it matters. Don't want to be making friends with the wrong sort" 
"I don't need you to tell me who I can be friends with I'm a big girl" I said grabbing my Duffel bag and suitcase with one hand and the kennel with the other. 
"Run along and go play with your little kid friends" 
"Your a real butt head you know or better yet a shit face" 
"Shits a bad word" 
"I know" I walked out felling sassy and then passed the compartment with the red head that had the rat earlier. I opened the door and he looked at me. "Nice Rat...I wanted to bring my pet snake but my mum didn't let me how did you manage to bring a rat" 
"It was my brothers" 
"Nice" 
I closed the door and went the compartment with the girls. "I brought my cat my luggage and my snacks and games". I sat down and opened my duffel bag and showed my candy drinks and games. 
"Woah what is all this" 
"I have candy, Uno, and drinks there's other games but this one is the one to play" 
"What kind of Candy do you have"
"I've got these gummy banana shaped and flavored candy called Groooovy Bananas. It's even got a cool looking banana on the front. Look at him with his sun glasses. Then I have sweet and spicy trail mix, I also have Salty and Spicy trail mix, along with Salty and sweet trail mix, plain salty, plain sweet, and plain spicy. I also have gummy worms Arizona teas I forgot how many of those I have but I have a lot. I have soda and I have more Groooovy Bananas in the wayyyyy bottom"
"How do you have all this stuff didn't your mom pack your bags"
"She packed this one suitcase but I told her I could pack this because I was a big girl. I didn't want to go hungry or bored on the train"
"Wicked" 
We all dug into the bag and grabbed the snacks and started to play Uno when a girl walked in. 
"Have you seen a toad, A boy name Neville's lost one" 
"Nope" 
"But we do have groooovy snacks" 
"Groooovy Bananas"
"Yes those"
"Would you like one" 
"No thanks" she said her face full of disgust and Aine just shrugged and took another one. She looked at all of us and talked again. 
"You should change into your robes I expect well be arriving soon"
"Already?!" 
"UNOOOOOO"
"NO NO NO NO FAIR YOUR CHEATING ELLA WHERES THE CARD. WHERE'D YOU PUT IT" 
"I'M NOT CHEATING YOU JUST SUCK BLACK"
"YOU DO SUCK SHIT" 
"What?"
"I'm a big girl I could say it too" 
"GUYS". We all looked at Aine and she pointed out the window "Robes come on game over" 
"That's fine because I fold anyways" 
"We aren't playing that game Karina"
"I thought we were" 
"They're your cards"
"They're new mum got them for me and I kinda just threw away the directions" 
We all went through our luggage's and got our robes and lined up for the bathroom and quickly changed went back to the compartment and cleaned up. We were escorted off the train and to some boats taking us to the castle. A lady told us what was going to happen but after she left was when it started to get good.
"It's true then? What they are saying on the train. Harry Potter has come to Hogwarts"
"Harry Potter?"
"This is Crabbe, Goyle, and Karina and I'm Malfoy, Draco Malfoy" 
"I'm Malfoy, Draco Malfoy" I mimicked causing Draco to look at me and give me a death glare. I faked smiled and looked at Harry. 
The red head from earlier laughed and then Draco looked at him "Think my name is funny do you, No need to ask yours. Red hair and a hand me down robe. You must be a Weasley" 
"DRACO" I said hitting him and he just shook me off.
"You'll soon find out some wizarding families are better than others Potter. You don't want to go making friends with the wrong sort. I can help you there" he outstretched his hand and I held in a laugh. What. an. idiot. 
"I think I could tell the wrong sort for myself, thanks" 
"That's what I said earlier... See Draco no one needs your help" 
"Ahem" We all turned to look and it was the lady form before. Minerva Mcgonagall.
"We are ready now"
We all followed her into the place and I looked up "Woah" 
"Its enchanted" 
I looked at Ella and whispered "Who asked her"
"Know it all" We giggled and I pulled on Draco's robe.
"Hey did you catch that. You were rejected by a famous Potter"
"I know"
"Oh I just wanted to make sure you knew...also just wanted to rub it in"
"Ha ha ha"
"It was funny" 
"Before we start Professor Dumbledore has a few words" 
"I have a few start off terms notices I wish to announce. The first years please note that the dark forest is strictly forbidden to all students" 
"We have to go there" I said turning to Ella and she smiled and nodded "And we can leave Draco there" 
"Shhh"
"Shh your face" 
"Also our care taker Mr. Filch has asked me to remind you that the third floor corridor on the right hand side is out of bounds to everyone who does not wish to die a most painful death... thank you" 
"You should go to the right side of the third floor Karina" 
"Shove off Malfoy" 
Mcgonagall started to call names then she got to mine. "Karina Demarco" People started to whisper and I looked at Ella and Malfoy 
"Gotta blast...wish me luck" 
"Good luck" 
"Good luck" 
"I wasn't asking you to wish me luck Draco now I've got bad luck all over me" 
"Why"
"Because you were the dude rejected by Harry Potter" he rolled his eyes and pushed me towards the hat. I sat down and just looked at everyone around the room and nodded awkwardly. 
"AH HE HAD A CHILD" 
"Dude you scared the shi-"
"I CANT TELL YOU STRIVE FOR THE BEST JUST LIKE RAVENCLAW BUT UNLIKE RAVENCLAW YOUR CUNNING AND AMBITIOUS IT SHALL BE SLYTHERIN" I hopped off the chair and towards the Slytherin table. I sat next to Crabbe and nodded my head "Sup" After a group of people it was Malfoys turn 
"SLYTHERIN" 
"Can't they just send him to the dump without directions?" I said and Crabbe looked at me and held in a laugh "Let it out it was freaking hilarious" I clapped my hands and rolled my eyes "Yay" I said sarcastically as he approached the table. 
"I got Slytherin too" 
"Dude we know now shut up the shows going on" 
Harry sat on the chair and the hat was placed on his head. "Hey do you think they disinfect that the thing" 
"The hat?"
"Yeah"
"Probably not"
"Damn it already got Draco's head lice on it again"
"Shut up the shows going on" Draco said mimicking me and Crabbe laughed
"Oh now you laugh"
"DIFFICULT VERY DIFFICULT. PLENTY OF COURAGE I SEE NOT NOT A BAD MIND EITHER THERE'S TALENT. OH YES AND A THRIST TO PROVE YOURSELF BUT WHERE TO PUT YOU" 
"In the garbage" 
"See Draco's its not funny when you say it" 
"What-"
"NOT SLYTHERIN EH ARE YOU SURE, YOU COULD BE GREAT YOU KNOW IT'S ALL HERE IN YOUR HEAD AND SLYTHERIN WILL HELP YOU THE WAY TO GREATNESS THERE'S NO DOUBT ABOUT THAT NO... WELL IF YOU'RE SURE BETTER BE...GRYFINDOR"
"Ahhh boys you lost that one Crabbe you owe me 20, you kid... you own me ten" 
"Ella Slytherin" People started to whisper  just like they did with Harry, Draco and Me. She looked over at me and then at the Hat. She walked up to it and when it was placed on her head everyone shut up 
"ANOTHER HEIR OF SLYTHERIN THAT MAKES IT TWO IN THIS FIRST YEARS CLASS ALREADY... POWERFUL GROUP VERY POWERFUL. ONLY ONE THING TO DO SLYTHERIN" She smiled and walked to the table and sat right next to me "Ella can you believe it that Idiot right there thought you were going to be put into Gryffindor" 
"What an-"
"Idiot like I said...that's 30 my friend"
"30?! You said 10"
"20 for being an idiot come on pay up" the kid sighed and gave me the coins. 
"This better not be cholate coins"
"Its not" 
"Good"
"Aine O'Clery"
Me and Ella both stood up and started to clap grabbing the attention of everyone "WOOOOO AINE GET IT GET IT" 
"GO ANIE GO AINE GO AINE" she smiled and got on the chair
"LOYALTY AND HARDWORK, PATIENCE AND JUSTICE LET IT BE HUFFLEPUFF"
"WOOOOOOOOO AINE"
"GOOOOO AINE" She walked to her table, me and Ella sat down
"Did you have a bet for that one"
"Yes yes I did" I looked at Ximena and gave her evil eyes
"She owns me 50 for being mean on the train plus I said Aine was going to be in Hufflepuff" We had our dinner and then were lead to the common rooms.
"Why the bloody hell are we all the way into the dungeons come one that's a little excessive"
"That's your great great great great"
"Cut it with the greats we get it, it was all Salazar's doing. Lair my arse and is it really under the lake"
"Yep"
"Wicked" Me and Ella said at the same time and we kept following the group to the "lair"
We got there and the prefect said the password "Pure Blood"
"Not surprised that's the password"
"Girls on the right boys on the left your stuff is already in your rooms your names are on the door already... please shut up and go to bed"
"Some one hates their job" Ella said as we walked towards our rooms and looked for our names "Hey look me and you are roommates but who in the bloody hell is Pansy Parkinson" We shrugged and opened the door to see another girl already there
"Hi I'm Pansy"
"She looks like a"
"Pug"
"That's not nice"
"We don't care" I fist bumped Ella and we each walked to our beds
"So I have a conspiracy theory right... The whole sorting thing planned. You want to know why....Because the already sent our bag here before we arrived"
"Or after we get sorted the things get transferred"
"Makes sense"
We all took turns in the bathroom at back of the room to change into our pjs and use the bathroom when it was my turn I looked into the mirror analyzing myself. My caramel skin looked soft in the reflections. My Green eyes analyzed my face I looked at my dark freckles, dimples and my long lashes and my big black glasses to top it off. I backed up and looked at my long back hair that's stopped at the end of my stomach. I then analyzed my cereal box form in my black and white pjs, I put my hands on my face and squealed. I was finally here and sorted into Slytherin. I was definitely going to make my parents proud. I walked out and the lights were already off. I made my way to my bed and knocked out. 

Sorry if it sucks. I suck
