"Don't you worry Tess. We'll show them. They won't be anyone once I'm through with them."
I smiled smugly. "I was hoping you'd say that."
"And with any luck, Arrianna... is it?...will keep Harry occupied thereby letting my brother be."
I glanced over at Harry, and sure enough, his attention seemed to be captivated by the two girls. I felt a small stab of annoyance. Though it would be disgraceful for me to be interested in Harry, it would be nice to have The Boy Who Lived interested in me. I could just imagine the jealousy it would cause, and I thrived on jealousy. Not that it would ever happen, considering Harry was my brother's greatest enemy. But that was really only because Draco was going through the exact emotion I wanted to inspire.
"Yes, that would be good." I sighed as I turned my gaze to Max Evans. Still shameful for me to be interested, but definitely more worth it in my eyes. And he was like a Greek god... or a Gryffindor one. The thought made me wrinkle my nose in disgust. "It's such a pity he's in Gryffindor. I would just love to get my hands on that..." I drifted off when I noticed Isabel's disgusted face. I laughed. "Ah well, at least he's a pureblood."
"To the common room? Or stay to flirt?" Isabel asked, and I was about to answer when my brother leaned over to talk to us.
"What I'd like to know, is why the two new ones weren't sorted. What houses are they to be in?" He asked.
"Well, the Riddle girl is pretty likely to end up in Slytherin, wouldn't you think? Black is much more difficult, however.... we are most likely the only ones who truly understand her background. And Sirius was in with the foolishly brave ones." I said, looking scathingly over at the Gryffindor table. Slytherins were brave as well... we just didn't like to risk our own necks.

"Harry..........there you are,"
"Hi Hermione" I say without turning away from the fireplace. "Hi Ron" I add knowing if Hermione's here he cant be too far away. "Yes Harry's here. The mad crazy Harry! Beware!"
I can hear a few of the remaining first years in the common room dash upstairs and I roll my eyes.
"Have a good time at the prefect table?" I ask bitterly staring at the fire. I wish Sirius was here. He would say he believed me. He would come and help me...
Hermione and Ron would be busy looking after the "Ickle firsties" as Peeves like to call them.
I sigh. For some one so "famous" youd think Id have fun once in a while.
(gotta go...wil post for Isabel a bit later

Hermione seems to show no reaction to the name, but I figure I can talk to both her and Harry about it later. Speaking of Harry, I haven't seen him yet. I wonder what he's up to, considering everyone thinks he's crazy.
"Harry..........there you are," Hermione says once we've got the first years into the common room. He's sitting on one of the armchairs in the corner, and Hermione runs over, all excited to see him. I don't exactly know why, but that bothers me.
Making my way over, I reach them just in time to hear Harry greet the both of us, not turning away from the fire. "Yes Harry's here. The mad crazy Harry! Beware!" He adds, and I can tell he's angry about how people are treating him.
"Harry, we don't think you're crazy, so just get over it. People'll believe anything."

"Well, the Riddle girl is pretty likely to end up in Slytherin, wouldn't you think? Black is much more difficult, however.... we are most likely the only ones who truly understand her background. And Sirius was in with the foolishly brave ones."
I nodd. Tess makes sense. "Your right though Draco...why werent they sorted. I guess the old fool decided as there exchange students they dont need to as there special" I say rolling my eyes. "I tell you the only two girls in this school who are special would be your sister and I."
I smile at Tess. "Isnt that right?"

"Harry, we don't think you're crazy, so just get over it. People'll believe anything." he says approaching.
"I know you dont. Your one of a very tiny minority." I say. "But since you two will be hanging with the prefects what am I going to do...hang out with the people who think Im either a) Mad, b) Crazy, c) An attention seeker or d) all of the above." I say hitting my chair in annoyance.
"So how was your prefect table? Have a nice time with all the "good" students?"

So how was your prefect table? Have a nice time with all the "good" students?" Harry rants, hitting the chair. I can see Hermione wince. All we want to do is look out for him, but he really needs to get over himself.
"First of all, we aren't just gonna hang out with the prefects. And when we can't hang out with you, hang out with Neville. Or Luna. They know you aren't lying." I reply, trying to come up with an appropriate answer. "And as for the table, actually it was bloody boring." I take a seat next to him and try to change the subject.
"So how was your summer with the Dursleys?"

"First of all, we aren't just gonna hang out with the prefects. And when we can't hang out with you, hang out with Neville. Or Luna. They know you aren't lying."
Oh yeah...great. I can hear the whispers now. "Potter ditched by his friends and now hangs out with nervous, always mucking up Neville, and Loony Luna"
Yes....that will be GREAT.
"And as for the table, actually it was bloody boring." he says coming to sit near me.
I know hes just saying that to be nice....why else would he? Bet the prefects table was great. People who actually give a damn about the reality of Voldermort and school life and most importantly...Dumbledore.
"So how was your summer with the Dursleys?"
I screw up my face. "Well lets see" I say. "I was ignored the entire summer. Im amazed my vocal chords still know how to operate. The best conversation I had all summer was with Hedwig!" I say. "And how was the burrow?" I ask, wondering why he hadnt come for me this year, like hes done before.

Isabel nods. "You're right though Draco...why weren't they sorted. I guess the old fool decided as they're exchange students they don't need to as they're special" I say rolling my eyes. "I tell you the only two girls in this school who are special would be your sister and I. Isn't that right?"
I shake my head. I have more things to worry about than their vanity. "I don't know about Riddle. I mean, family or no family, if she doesn't have ambition, she won't be with us." I watch both new girls carefully, although it's Ms. Black who has really captured my attention.
"But they need to sleep somewhere and the houses are the only student dormitories. Do you think they're staying with one of the teachers?" I speculate. Which teacher? They can't live off the grounds, that's for certain...

After gathering up all the first years and leading them out of the Great Hall I sneak one last glance at Isabel Evans before leaving. I also wonder where my sister is, since she is a Prefect this year she should be helping me with this annoying task.
“This way everyone. Keep up now and watch the staircases they like to move.” I tell the first years at I lead them to the Ravenclaw Tower. After saying the password and getting everyone situated I leave in search for Liz. I find her dilly dallying with Maria and Kyle.
“I got all the first years to there dormitories. Where have you been?” I say with some annoyance. She was talking with her friends instead of doing her Prefect duties.
*Michael*
Another year of school...I’m so not looking forward to it. But at least, since this is our Sixth year, we don’t have to worry about O.W.L.S. and we don’t have to take N.E.W.T.S. until next year so this shouldn’t be a stressful year.
I’m usually not the type of person that shows much interest in school work but since I want to be a Auror I have to keep my grades up. I’ve wanted to be an Auror since I was a kid, and I know I’ll be good at it.
“Well, Maxwell, Should we head up to the Tower? Or are we going to hang around here and stare at Liz Parker for the rest of the night?” I smirk at my cousin.

"I don't know about Riddle. I mean, family or no family, if she doesn't have ambition, she won't be with us." I nodd. True enough...but a Riddle without ambition? I havent heard of one of them before.
But then again she might not be related...
"But they need to sleep somewhere and the houses are the only student dormitories. Do you think they're staying with one of the teachers?"
"Oh no" I say instantly. "For starters crackpot there would never put them with a male teacher, and hed want them to socialise....to fit in. If he puts them with teachers theyll never fit in" I say. "No....I expect theyve already been told where there sleeping....they just kindly havent informed us." I say rolling my eyes.
