Harry and Eloise Potter

Chapter Five

   Over the next two years, I stayed in big cities and in crowds. I took money from the family vault and used my ability. I bought my school stuff and went under an alias instead. I changed my looks to match the people around me. I was on the platform now and put my trunk and owl in the compartments they belonged. I turned around and saw a shaggy black dog walking side by side with my Uncle Remus. Dad, Mum, and Harry with them. I ran into Harry purposefully and fell to the ground.
   "Woah!" Harry stumbled a bit. The dog approached me, sniffed me.
   "Can control your... uh... dog please?" I asked them, leaning away from him. I accidentally looked him in the eyes and he started barking crazily. My eyes widened and I scooted away from it.
   "Perhaps control your mutt better Potter." A man approached. The boy with him helped me stand. A woman also approached.
   "Narcissa." Remus greeted the woman. I noticed the man and the boy both had bright blonde hair.
   "Remus." She nodded.
   "I'm Malfoy. Draco Malfoy." The boy introduced himself.
   "Hi. I'm Rosalie." I told him softly, shaking his hand softly.
   "Do you want to sit with me and my friends on the train?" He asked me.
   "Sure. As long as you don't mind."
   "Draco." The man suddenly addressed us. "Who's this?"
   "Pardon me sir, I'm Rosalie, it's a pleasure." I greeted politely. He shook my hand softly.
   "Lucius Malfoy, my wife Narcissa."
   "Nice to meet you both."
   "Where are your parents Rosalie?" Narcissa asked me.
   "I'm afraid they aren't here, ma'am."
   "How did you get here?" Lucius asked me.
   "I walked. My parents disowned me a few years ago. I've been on my own."
   "Living where exactly."
   "The Leaky Cauldron. My parents never froze my assets so I've been living there." They both seemed highly intrigued. The whistle on the train went off.
   "That would be you two's cues. Write Draco." Narcissa told her son.
   "It was a pleasure meeting you both, but if you'll excuse us.." Draco looked confused. "You asked me to sit with you, I just assumed we'd be boarding together. If you've changed your mind, I don't mind sitting alone."
   "No, you're sitting with us. Come on. We just gotta find the others." Draco took my hand softly before leading me onto the train. We seemed to find who he was looking for.
   "Who's she?" A pug-faced girl asked rudely.
   "Everyone this is Rosalie." Draco introduced.
   "We already have a full compartment. Bye now." She shut the door in my face making me flinch back slightly. I looked at Draco and he looked angry. He looked at me and I shook my head to tell him not to. He sighed and sat back as I walked away. I found an empty compartment and sat there, staring out the window. Two twins passed the door and I saw their green ties and got confused. I went to the door and peaked out.
   "Psst." I hissed. "Fred, George." I hissed lowly. They turned around and I nodded into my compartment and they came in wearily. "You guys got into Slytherin?" I asked them in amusement.
   "Do we know you?" George asked slowly.
   "Oh, right." I change back to my real self.
   "Eloise??" Fred breathed in shock.
   "Shh." I said quickly as I pulled the blinds down on all sides of the compartment.
   "You have been missing for two years."
   "I'm so close to being able to go home guys, please, don't tell them, I'm so close, I promise. But if my cover is blown, I'll never find out the truth."
   "The truth about what?" George whispered to me.
   "Dumbledore is the one who killed my grandparents. Not Voldemort."
   "Well, yeah." Fred nodded and acted like it was obvious.
   "I'm proving it. That's why I ran away."
   "Ohhh, that's why you ran away. Okay. We won't tell, promise." I changed my appearance as the door opened. I looked at Harry and the two he was with expectantly as they looked at us.
   "Can we help you?" I asked them harshly.
   "We were just looking for a compartment." The girl said.
   "Well as you can see, there's already three of us, so buh-bye." I closed the door.
   "That was so mean." Fred laughed lightly.
   "Appearances." I told them before I giggled. We chatted for so long about different things, just catching up.
   We soon had to change. They left while I stayed. They came back and led me off the train and to Hagrid.
   "Have fun. Hopefully you're in Slytherin with us. See ya Rosalie."
   "Bye guys." I told them with a smile and a small eye roll. I got on a boat with Draco and his friends, Pansy on another boat.
"Hey, I'm Blaise, and this is Theo. We're friends of Draco's."
"A pleasure to meet you both, I'm Rosalie." I smiled at them softly, shaking their hands. We got to the castle and I gulped a little, nervous. We got inside and Dumbledore stood up. I was holding onto Draco's hand subconsciously.
"This year we were supposed to be joined by Eloise Potter, Harry Potter's twin sister. Unfortunately Eloise Potter is missing still after two years. If you or your parents have any news on her whereabouts, please do inform the ministry. Let the sorting commence." They went through the alphabetic Draco going before me.
"Rosalie!" McGonagall called. I went up and hopped onto the stool.
"Hmm..." the hat's voice hummed in my head.
"That's not creepy at all..." I muttered. He chuckled.
"Hard to place, hard to place..." he repeated twice.
"It can't be that hard, just pick." I told him in my head.
"Good luck on your quest." I smirked at that before he exclaimed my house. "SLYTHERIN!!!" He yelled. The hat was taken from my head and I hopped down before walking to Draco.
"What's that smirk for?" He asked me.
"Oh you'll find out soon enough." I told him as I sat down. I was smirking throughout the rest of dinner, unnerving some others.
