A place where I can go
To take this off my shoulders
Someone take me home"

"Oh I no English I stay here at the lion table"

Y/n and everyone was so excited to go to Hogwarts they couldn't stand it especially Harry and Y/n they were all getting their trunks and everything and they we were all going by flow powder to the station

"Hurry up we are gonna be late!" Mrs Weasley cried

"Everyone go I don't care which order go!" Mrs. Weasley said they all went in and the last people was Harry and Ron but they couldn't go through the barrier

"Why can't we get through?" Ron asks

"I don't know" Harry said and the clock hit 11 A.M.

"It's 11! The train leaves at 11 A.M. sharp we missed it!" Ron said

"Well that's means your parents, can't get back can they?" Harry asks

"No they can't"

"Well I guess we can just wait by the car then." Harry said and Ron's eyes widened

"The car! That's it!"

***

Y/n was looking for an compartment when she saw one compartment with a bushy haired girl with her nose in a book.

"Hello..can I sit here?" Y/n asks the bushy haired girl

"Of course" the girl said as y/n sat down "I'm Hermione Granger." She said sticking her hand out

"I'm Y/n Rivera." Y/n said then their was a knock at the compartment door, the girls looked and saw a bottle bleached Barbie with his goons and Y/n's hair went red and Hermione's eyes went wide to the fact that Y/n was a Metamorphmagus

"Hey mudblood, Rivera." Malfoy said then he noticed Y/n's hair and her fist clenched

"Oh no is lava girl gonna punch me" Malfoy said in a baby tone and Y/n stood up and put her wand to his neck

"No but I'll hex you!" Y/n said as Malfoy started trembling

"Stu.."

"Y/n! No you can't hex him were on a train!" Hermione said interrupting Y/n

"Fine" Y/n said then she sat down and looked down at her feet

"Stupid mudbloods" Malfoy said laughing

"First of all I am a pureblood second of all don't you even dare call her a mudblood or I will hex you now scram!" Y/n said and Malfoy and his goons ran off

"Thank you..." Hermione said smiling

"No problem"

"You're pretty good at knowing spells to only be 11" Hermione said and Y/n looked down at her feet

"I'm 12 actually, they didn't send me a letter last year, which sucks" Y/n said and Hermione looked at the window and back at Y/n

"Hey don't worry first year is really easy" Hermione said

"No it's not that it's just, I really want to know why they didn't send me a letter last year and why am I a Metamorphmagus and what even is a Metamorphmagus?" Y/n asked

"A Metamorphmagus is a witch or wizard with the rare magical ability to change their physical appearance through sheer will alone, without the need of Polyjuice Potion, or a spell like most of the wizarding population"Hermione said and Y/n's eyes widened

"How did you know all that stuff?" Y/n asked

"Books"

"Wow you're really smart" Y/n said which made Hermione blush a little bit

"T-thanks..." Hermione said and Y/n smiled

"Could you teach me to be that smart?" Y/n asks and Hermione's face was steal blushing

"I..um..yes o..of course!" Hermione said

"Thank you!"

***

They arrived at Hogwarts and Y/n saw a bright blue car by the whomping willow tree but she didn't think nothing about it.

"Hermione have you've seen Harry or Ron?" Y/n asked

"No I haven't" Hermione said

"Odd" Y/n said

"Well you better get with the first year, I'll see you at the great hall!" Hermione said walking off to the second years

"Firs' yers this way!" Y/n heard a tall man shout and she decided to follow them

***

"Ron we better hurry or we'll miss sorting!" Harry said as Ron and Harry rush to the Great Hall as they get their they see nobody

"Bloody hell we made it, we better take our seats before it gets to packed" Ron said as they both walk to the Gryffindor table

—

"Look their is the first years!" Harry said as the Great Hall started filling up and Hermione walked angrily towards the two boys

"Where were you?! Why wasn't you two on the train??" Hermione asks

"Um.." the boys said as they were interrupted by Professor Dumbledore

"Welcome to a new year at Hogwarts! Before we begin our banquet, I would like to say a few words. And here they are: Nitwit! Blubber! Oddment! Tweak! Thank you!" Dumbledore said as Professor McGonagall walked up to the sorting hat Y/n looked over and saw all of her friends at the Gryffindor table hoping that she would get Gryffindor if not she has a trick or her sleeve...

"Alright first years when I call your name you come and sit on the stool and you'll be sorted into your houses." Professor McGonagall said

"Y/n Rivera"

          Y/n's palms were sweaty and Professor Dumbledore sat up straight to hear this and the whole hall went silent and she looked over and saw Fred and George giving a thumbs up, she walked over and sat down on the stool and fidgeted with her fingers

"hmm tough one eh...you're just like your father...very cunning very brave like super brave hmm some intelligence no patience what so ever so that marks Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw off the list woah you're just like your father wow" the sorting hat said and she was thinking 'well my father is in Hufflepuff but the hat said Hufflepuff was off the list'

"No your father was not in Hufflepuff...your mother is in fact a Ravenclaw....hmmm....SLYTHERIN!" Y/n's heart dropped as she walked over to the Gryffindor table and everyone goes speechless and she sits next to Fred and George and everyone just looks at each other confused

"I SAID SLYTHERIN!" The sorting hat yelled and Y/n looked at the twins and winked at them

"Oh I no English I stay here at the lion table" Y/n said in a Spanish accent and the twins couldn't hold back their laugh and Snape come over towards the Gryffindor table

"Listen Rivera we all know you want to be with your little friends but you are in fact a Slytherin and you need to go to the table"  Snape said but Y/n didn't budge

"No hablar espanol." Y/n said and Snape rolled his eyes and muttered under his breath

"Just like her father" and sighed grabbing her by the arm and practically dragging her to the slytherin table

"You are a slytherin and you're gonna stay at the Slytherin table rather you like it or not!" Snape said and Y/n rolled her eyes and she put her head down on the table

"This year couldn't possibly get any worse" Y/n said and she looked over and saw Malfoy snickering and she rolled her eyes

***

          Y/n Ron Harry and Hermione was all in the library because everyone thinks Draco is the heir of Slytherin because he said "Mudbloods you're next" after there was so writing on the wall

"Trust me Malfoy isn't to smart to be the heir of Slytherin" Y/n said and Hermione rolled her eyes and hit Y/n in the back of the head with her hand

"Hermione what the fuck!" Y/n said and that caused another slap on the head by Hermione

"Y/n! Draco could be smarter than we think and plus he could be working for you-know-who!"Hermione said and Y/n rolled her eyes

"You can just say Vold..." Y/n said as Hermione covered Y/ns mouth with her hand

"Shhhhh don't say his name!" Hermione said and Y/n rolled her eyes

"Nobody's here!" Y/n said and Hermione still shushed her trying to find a book on how to turn into Crabbe and Goyle

"Here it is: 'The Polyjuice Potion. Properly brewed, the Polyjuice Potion allows the drinker to transform himself temporarily into physical form of another..."Hermione said and Ron just looks so confused

"You mean, Harry and I drink some of this stuff and we turn into Crabbe and Goyle?" Ron asks

"Yes"

"Wicked Malfoy'll tell us anything!" Ron exclaimed

"Exactly. But it's tricky. I've never seen a more complicated potion. Lacewing Files, leeches, fluxweed. And, of course, we'll need a bit of whoever we want to change into too." Hermione said and Ron looked grossed out

"Hang on. I'm not drinking nothing we Crabbes toenails in it. And what about Y/n?" Ron asked

"Y/n is a Slytherin she will be fine...Malfoy might even tell her things but they don't really like each other....Y/n how would you feel if you turned into Parkinson?" Hermione asked

"I mean..she's very annoying to be around but ok I wouldn't care. But I'm a Metamorphmagus so I could change into someone without a Polyjuice potion correct?" Y/n asked

"Yes, but I'll make you a Polyjuice potion just in case you can't" Hermione said and Y/n replied with an 'ok' before Harry finally said something

"How long will it take to make" Harry asked

"A month" Hermione said

"A month? But if Malfoy is the heir of Slytherin... he could attack half of the Muggle-borns in the school by then." Harry said

"You didn't have to tell me that" Hermione said

***

Harry was in a Slytherin vs Gryffindor match and Harry got the snitch but he broke his arm and Lockhart tried to fix it but it didn't turn out like he hoped so he was in the Hospital wing recovering and then dobby showed Harry wanted to strangle him but he did saw that dobby was the reason for him missing the train and such.

A gloomy place. Cracked mirrors. Chipped sinks. Guttering candles. Harry and Ron huddle over a small, bubbling cauldron, as Hermione adds strange ingredients to the Polyjuice potion and Y/n just sits down right beside Hermione watching her

"Again? You mean, the chamber of secrets has been opened before?" Hermione asked

"Of course! Don't you see? Lucius Malfoy must've opened it when he was at school here! And now he's told Malfoy how to do it." Ron said

"Maybe. We'll just have to wait for the Polyjuice potion to know for sure." Hermione said

"Enlighten me, why are we brewing this potion in broad daylight, in the middle of the girls' lavatory? Don't you think we'll get caught?" Ron asked

"Never. No one ever comes in here." Hermione said

"Why?" Ron asked

"Moaning Myrtle" Hermione replied

"Who's Moaning Myrtle?" Ron asked then a loud, piercing screech and a ghost of a young girl comes racing out of the wall face to face with Ron

"I'm Moaning Myrtle! I wouldn't expect you to know me. Who would ever talk about fat, ugly, miserable, moping, Moaning Myrtle?" She said as she sobs loudly and dives head first into a toilet

"She's a little sensitive" Hermione said

***

Notice board: Dueling Club! First meeting tonight. A Golden stage has been erected. Lockhart struts a top it. Y/n, Harry, Ron and, Hermione and good number of students watch.

"Gather round! Gather round! Can everyone see me? Can everyone here me? Excellent! In light of the dark events of recent weeks, Professor Dumbledore has granted me permission to start the little Dueling Club, to train you all up in case you ever need to defend yourselves as I myself have done countless occasions...for full details, see my published works." Lockhart said as the boy next to Harry, Justin Finch Fletchley turns to Harry

"That Lockhart's something isn't he? Awfully brave chap." Justin said as he offered his hand

"Justin Finch-Fletchley. Hufflepuff." Justin said as Harry took his hand

"Nice to me you I'm..."

"I know who you are. We all do. Even us muggle borns." Justin said grinning agreeably, he then looks back to the stage where Professor Snape has joined Lockhart

"Let me introduce my assistant Professor Snape. He has agreed to help me with a short demonstration. Now I don't want any of you youngsters to worry. You'll still have your Potions Master when I'm through with him, never fear!" Lockhart said as Y/n rolls her eyes and Hermione nudges her

"What's the fun in that?" Ron said as Lockhart and Snape faces each other and bow. They turn, walk ten paces, then....spin....wands poised like swords

"As you can see, we are holding our wands in the accepted combative position. On the count of three we will cast our first spells. Neither of us will be aiming to kill of course." Lockhart said

"I wouldn't bet on that" Harry muttered under his breath eyeing Snape

"One two three...."

"EXPELLIARUMS!" Snape yelled a dazzling flash of scarlet light bursts forth and blasts Lockhart off feet and into the wall behind him.

"Do you think he's alright?" Hermione asked

"Who cares?" Y/n, Ron and Harry said with a smile

"Well, there you have it. That was a disarming charm. As you see, I've lost my wand." Lockhart said rising unsteadily as Hermione returns his wand to Lockhart

"Ah, thank you Miss Granger. Yes, an excellent idea to show them that Professor Snape, but if you don't mind saying so, it was very obvious what you were about to do. If I had wanted to stop you it would have been only too easy" Lockhart said

"Perhaps it would be prudent to first teach the students to block unfriendly spells, Professor" Snape said

"An excellent suggestion Professor Snape. Let's have a Volunteer pair. Potter, Weasley, how about you?" Lockhart asked

"Weasleys wand causes devastation with the simplest spells. We'll be sending Potter to the hospital wing in a matchbox. Might I suggest someone from my own house. Malfoy, perhaps." Professor Snape said as Malfoy and Harry eye each other malevolent as they take their places onstage. Grudgingly, they bow to each other.

"Scared, POtTaH?" Malfoy asked

"You wish" Harry replied

"HARRY YOU BETTER BEAT MALFOYS ASS YOU HEAR ME!" Y/n said which she heard Harry chuckle a little bit and made Malfoy roll his eyes and Hermione too, Malfoy and Harry both turn and walk ten paces, then whirl, wands poised

"Wands at the ready! When I count to three, cast your charms to disarm your opponent...only to disarm. We don't want any accidents. One two...." Lockhart said then on the count of two Malfoy went early shouting Harry off of his feet with a blast of white light. He jumps up, points his wand.

"RICTUSEMPRA!" Harry yelled a jet of sliver light hits Malfoy dead in the stomach he doubles up and wheezes and then Snape becomes impatient and drags him up and pushes him towards Harry

"I said disarm only!" Lockhart yelled

"Serpensortia!" Malfoy yelled to Harry's horror, the tip of Malfoy's wand explodes and a long black snake slithers forth. Snape smiles with amusement

"Don't move, Potter. I'll get rid of it for you." Snape said

"Allow me!" Lockhart said as he flicks his wand. Bang! The snake flies into the air, hisses in rage, and slithers straight towards Justin. As students scream, Harry oddly calm...approaches the snake. It rises, fangs exposed, poised to strike Justin

"Leave him" Harry said in parseltongue the snake then looks into Harry eyes, then turns for Justin

"Leave him!" Harry said louder but again in parseltongue the snake hovers a moment more then...miraculously...slumps to the floor. Harry blinks as if coming out of a trance, grins curiously at the snake and offers his hand to Justin.

"What are you playing at?" Justin asked terrified, Justin backs away. Confused, Harry eyes the faces around him the only person that doesn't seem confused is Y/n. Malfoy looks shocked. Seamus and Neville's eyes glittered with fear. Ginny bolts the room. Snape waves his wand and the snake vanishes in puff of black smoke, then regards Harry with a look that is both shrewd and calculating.

"Come on. Move, now." Ron said grabbing Harry's arm

***

      Ron and Hermione then usher Harry inside as Y/n follows still confused at why they are rushing Harry inside the common room for no reason. Harry then glanced up, he sees Ginny staring down at him from top of the stairs. As their eyes meet, she turns for the girls' dormitory

"You're a parselmouth! Why didn't you tell us?" Ron asked and Y/n and Harry just glanced at each other

"I'm a what?" Harry asked

"You can talk to snakes!" Hermione said

"I know. I mean, I accidentally set a python on my cousin Dudley at the zoo once. But so what? I bet loads of people here can do it." Harry said

"No. They can't. It not a very common gift, Harry. This is bad." Hermione said

"What's bad? If I haven't told that snake not to attack Justin..." Harry said as Ron interrupted him

"Oh, that's what you said it to do." Ron said

"You were there! You heard me!" Harry said

"I heard you speak parseltoungue. Snake language" Ron said

"But how come I heard him speak clearly to the snake?" Y/n said then Hermione's and Ron's eyes widened and they glanced to each other

"I spoke a different language? But Y/n was the only one that heard me and I didn't realize? How can I speak another language without knowing I can?" Harry asked

"I don't know Harry but Y/n you also have to be Parseltongue to hear what Harry was saying then you must be one as well! But Harry it sounded like you were egging the snake on or something. It was....creepy" Hermione said

"Wow Y/n you are a Metamorphmagus and a Parseltongue! Cool!" Ron said then Hermione nudged him in the rib cage

"Not cool Ron! You have no idea how crazy that is!" Hermione said and Y/n just looked down at her feet and then the rest of Gryffindors stream into the room, they eye Harry warily. Even Seamus, Neville, and Dean walk by without saying a word

"Exactly. And now the whole schools gonna think you two are his great-great-great granson and granddaughter or something" Ron said

"But we're not.....we can't be" Harry said

"He lived a thousand years ago. For all we know....you two could be." Hermione said

"Ok whatever I'm going back to my common room Hermione you wanna come with me?" Y/n asked Hermione and she agreed to go with her and they walked out of the Gryffindor common room and headed to the Slytherin common room

"Hermione is there anyway for me to skip second year to be with you guys?" Y/n asked

"Yeah but you're in a whole different house then we are you still won't be in the same classes as me." Hermione said then Y/n smirked because she had an idea...

"Ok but as long as I can skip second year and be with y'all I should be fine" Y/n said

"I'll help you!" Hermione said

"Thanks Hermione you really are a best friend that a girl could ever have!" Y/n said which caused Hermione to smile

"No problem we can work on second year after we find out if Malfoy is the heir of slytherin or not ok?" Hermione said

"Ok get everything ready for it though" Y/n said as they finally reach the Slytherin common room

"Ok I will I'll see you tomorrow!" Hermione said walking back to her common room

"Cya!" Y/n yelled
