Damaged (A Draco Malfoy FanFiction)

Prologue

I kept my eyes forward as I walked into The Great Hall with the rest of the first years but I had to roll my eyes when I heard another girl talking about how the ceiling was bewitched to look like the night sky.

Yeah, everyone knows that.

I came to a stop with the rest of the student in front of the stool and Sorting Hat and my stomach reputed in nerves but I still kept my head up and my back straight and I looked at the teacher's table until my eyes landed on my Godfather, Severus Snape was named as my Godfather by my mother. Given that Severus had raised me I didn't find his personality intimidating, in fact, I learned everything I know from him. Severus gave me a slight nod and I smiled slightly.

Professor McGonagall started calling the names of the first years in alphabetical order, "Hermione Granger!" McGonagall called and a young girl brushed past me muttering to herself and she sat on the stool and the hat was placed on her head.

"Gryffindor!" Cheers erupted from the Gryffindor table as Granger made her way to the table with a smile on her face.

"Draco Malfoy!" My head turned slightly and a young boy with platinum blonde hair and a slightly pointed face walked forward and sat down on the stool but before the hat even touched his head the Hat yelled out Slytherin and Draco Malfoy slid off the stool with a smirk and sat down at his new house table. I turned my gaze away when he looked at me and turned my attention back to the Professor.

"Adria Morrigan!" Mutters and whispers filled the room at the mention of my name and I sighed as I walked forward and took a seat on the stool, I kept my eyes slightly down so I don't make eye contact with anyone. The hat was placed on my head and it was silent for a minute.

A part of me wished I had my name changed but why would I shy from my Family name, no matter what it meant. The name Morrigan came from the Goddess of Death and War if that wasn't enough to make people uneasy, my mother gave me the name Adria derived from the Latin language meaning 'Dark One' the Morrigan's were well-known for their alliance with the Dark Arts and The Dark Lord, I thought I would be able to escape that since The Dark Lord was no more but from the whispers and mutters I heard I knew it was impossible.

"Slytherin!" The Hat called and I automatically looked at Severus and he nodded at me again and I smiled as I jumped off the seat and made my way to the Slytherin House table I took a seat at the end of the table by myself and kept my eyes on the table despite the fact that I could feel other eyes on me.

"Harry Potter!" I looked up sharply and my eyes narrowed, of course, I would come to Hogwarts at the same as Harry Potter, I watched the raven-haired boy as he took his seat on the stool my eyes still narrowed at him. Potter. The reason why my mother was in Azkaban. I wasn't starstruck like almost everyone else at Hogwarts. The Hat stayed on his head longer than it had on any other student, it seemed to be having a conversation with him, but after a few minutes, his house was called.

"Gryffindor!" Thank bloody Salazar we're not in the same house, my glare followed him across the room but I looked away when he sat down at the Gryffindors table, I looked around at my own house table and I caught Draco Malfoy looking at me with curiosity, he must have seen me glaring at Potter. I looked away again and zoned out the rest of the sorting and Dumbledore's welcome speech.

I picked at my food while everyone else dug into the magnificent feast before them. 7 years in this place, 7 years of having to see undesirable's every day, I was thankful I had my Godfather here with me to make it a bit more bearable.

"Adria Morrigan, right?" A voice asked me and I looked up to meet grey eyes, Draco Malfoy, I nodded and went back to pushing my food around my table, "Daughter of Elena Morrigan?" I nodded again and Malfoy sat in front of me and I fixed my green eyes on his grey ones. "Draco Malfoy"

"Son of Lucius and Narcissa Malfoy" I replied softly and Malfoy's eyebrows raised slightly, "My Godfather told me"

"Who is your Godfather, if you don't mind me asking" I tilted my head slightly and evaluated the blonde boy. Severus told me the Malfoy's are part of the Sacred 29, like my own family. They were well known and respected even feared by some. Severus always spoke highly of the family so I owed to it him to be polite.

"Snape" I replied and Malfoy's eyes widened.

"He's a family friend, I didn't know he had a Goddaughter" Malfoy pried and I put my fork down and crossed my arms on the table.

"It was my request that no one knew" I replied, I looked around and noticed the room had started emptying, I rose from my seat at the same time as Malfoy and together we walked out of the Great Hall together. I stumbled when someone rushed past me knocking my shoulder, on instinct I grabbed their arm and pulled them back, I let go as soon as I realized it was Harry Potter and my lip curled up slightly and I took a large step back.

"I'm sorry for knocking you" Potter apologized nervously and I raised an eyebrow at him.

"Pay better attention to who's around you, Potter, you never know who you might bump into," I said dryly and Harry nodded quickly, my head tilted to the left slightly and I could see Malfoy smirking out of the corner of my eye. "Why are you still here? Shoo!" Potter almost tripped over his own feet in his hurry to leave and I rolled my eyes and carried on walking in the direction of the Slytherin Common Room and Malfoy caught up with me still with the smirk on his face.

"What did he ever do to you?" Malfoy asked when we finally entered the Slytherin Common Room and I was pleasantly surprised at the room. The low ceiling and dungeon-like room was nicely decorated with a variety of high-backed chairs and black leather sofas. I especially liked the carved mantlepiece on the fireplace and the green glow that the lamps emitted, I also liked the tall windows that looked out into the Black Lake, my eyes followed a mermaid as they swam past the windows.

"My family has a history with the Potters" I replied curtly, hoping Malfoy would leave it. He didn't.

"What kind of history?"

"I don't see how it's any of your business, Malfoy" I replied and Malfoy smirked.

"Well if we're going to be friends then I think I'd like to know why you dislike Potter, I'm not exactly his biggest fan either, Morrigan" Malfoy spoke with confidence and I couldn't hold back the sharp laugh that left my mouth.

"First thing to know about me, Malfoy, I don't have friends. As for Potter, I'm sure our mutual dislike towards him will change nothing" I spoke clearly but Malfoy's smirk didn't falter. "Sorry to burst your bubble, Malfoy, I'm better off alone, just leave me be"

I stepped around the smirking boy and made my way towards the stairs that led to the girls' dormitory, but Malfoy's voice made me pause for a second, "We'll see, Morrigan, I do like a challenge"

I was slightly irritated with his comment and I couldn't help but roll my eyes at the boy before walking up the stairs to my shared dorm room, where I found I would be sharing with Pansy Parkinson, a Pug-faced black haired girl, Daphne Greengrass, she was blonde-haired and blue-eyed and another girl called Tracey Davis who was black-haired and had green eyes.

I made no motion to them to show I wanted to talk to them and thankfully they took the hint and started to talk amongst themselves as I got ready for the next day and bed. This was going to be a long 7 years, I hope it's at least interesting I think I'd lose my mind if it was dull.
