Aww Sabrina, I'm sorry about your awful horrible life, I hope things get better for ya.

Now to Jemmz, lol you make it sound like me and Khristina are two different people, *sigh* but we're one, I tend to talk in third person sometimes. I love Sabrina's story, I feel sorry for her you know, maybe one of these days things will look up for her. I can't believe that Snape, Severus Snape bought a raw expensive broom, I mean don't get me wrong, I love Snivellus, but I dont' see him doing that, I'm actually shocked, aww Snape has a heart, though I guess he always did. PAMS!!!

OH.MY.GOSH. This story rocks!!!!!!!!

Jemmz, you're an awesome writer! I have got to subscribe to this!*goes and subscribes to this thread* You don't write as well as me though......you're MUCH, MUCH better!!!!!!!! *Note to self-must improve writing or Jemmz will steal all my readers* You have a couple spelling mistakes though, nothing major. PAMS!!!!!!

~Amrita~

No, I've read some of yours as well. You're really good!! Thanks though! I will try and fix those mistakes!

Well keep reading then, because more is coming!

Sorry, my mistake Khristina! (Love the spelling by the way) I know, scary as it may seem, Severus Snape does have heart, though not many people can say that they are part of it!

Okay, more after I have posted this!!!

"Lets begin at the Hogs Head over 17 years ago, when my father accidently gave a love potion to the wrong woman, my mother. Thankfully, my father woke up the next morning before mother and was able to escape without being hexed or worse. Nine months later, I was born and although my mother knew who the father was, she gave me the last name Black; it couldn't be Lestrange, as Rudolphus said that I wasn't worthy of the name, thank goodness! For the first year of my life there were constant people around me, influencing me to see whether I was going to be a witch or not... they didn't need to test it... my hair was already changing when I was young. However, shortly after my first birthday, which is August 16th in case anyone was wondering, ministry officials came to my house and arrested mother and Rudolphus for helping cause the insanity of Neville's parents. After that, all the dark influences around me faded, as my mother told her jailers who was the father. My name was changed from Black to Dumbledore, and my father decided to add a name on to the front of Sabrina, as he hadn't had a say in what I was to be called. Ariana, was Father and Uncle's sister, who unfortunatly past away a long time ago. No one else except for the ministry, the professors, and you three know that my name is actually Ariana. Mother would flip, Malfoy would kill, and the Death Eaters would probably torture, so please don't call me Ariana in public." I paused, and looked up. Harry and Ron were looking as if they had both swallowed something vile and Hermoine had silent tears running down her cheeks. "I'm sorry, should I stop?"

"No, keep going. We want to know why you weren't allowed to come to Hogwarts before," said Hermoine, looking at the boys to see if they agreed: they both nodded.

"Okay, just tell me if you have heard enough. During the summer, when I was going to turn eleven, I started to expect my letter to Hogwarts; instead, I got a letter to Beauxbatons Academy in France. I was so upset, I had been wanting to go to Hogwarts for ages! Instead, I travelled to France, where I became friends with Fleur Delacour, who I am told, is marrying Ron's brother next summer! School in France finishes earlier, so every year, I would come back to Hogwarts, and would get to see how much fun all the students were having. In fourth year, I begged Uncle to let me come to Hogwarts for my OWLs but he said no as Voldemort was back. Then last year, I made him see that if Voldemort was back, then I would be considerably safer where he could keep an eye on me... and thankfully he agreed! And the end of the story is that now I am friends with you guys!" I laughed and they all joined in.

"So, want to go test out your new broom Sab- Ariana? Then Harry can see if you have potential or not," Ron said, ducking as I tried to punch him.

"IF I have potential Ronald Weasley?!?!? I probably have more than you!" Harry and Hermoine laughed, whilst Ron and I pretended to fight. We finally stopped and whilst I tried to catch my breath, I said, "Guys, saying Sabrina or Ariana is too long, so how about calling me Rina?"

"Works for us!" They said. "Now how about, actually listening to Ron for once and grabbing your broom?" Harry asked.

"What about homework? We have got essays in both DADA and Potions to do!" Hermoine fretted.

"Hermoine, you don't know me very well yet, so let me tell you something. I am never behind on my homework, and hopefully I never will be! Let's go and have a break for a while, then you and I can start our homework, while the boys try it, fail to get their small minds 'round it, and then ask us for our help." I said, climbing out of the portrait.

"I may not know you, but you do seem to know the boys," came the reply.

"No, boys just work the same no matter where you are in the world!"

"Hey!" said Ron and Harry. They started chasing us, as we all headed for the quidditch pitch, for an awsome practice on my brand new broom!

That's my life guys! It's not the end of the story though! If you have any other questions though regarding either side of my family, please ask, and I will answer them!

This is only going to be a short post, so hope it's alright!!!

The broom was brilliant!! I was able to dodge both Ron and Harry's attacks, so Harry told me that whether I liked it or not, I was going to be trying out for a position on the Quidditch team next Saturday.

"I already put my name on the sign up sheet," I said, walking back towards the castle. "I like being a chaser, are there any spaces left?"

"Yeah. We need another chaser, and two beaters. Ron's our keeper, Ginny and Katie are our two chasers, and I'm seeker."

"You're still seeking for a brain, Potter?" Came a sneer from behind us. "I would have thought after five years, you would have found it, either that or some courage." There was some laughter as well then.

I turned around, as did the other three. "Look, Malfoy, you really aren't funny. You may wish you were funny. You may wish you were smart. You may wish you were strong. You may wish you were sexy. You may wish you were superior to me.... but guess what, you are NOT, and probably NEVER will be!!!" I was furious, I had only been in school for a day, and my cousin was already driving me mad; god I hate being in this family sometimes!!

"You know, you really look like Aunt Bella when you get angry. Did you know that?" he asked, trying not to look scared. He did though, and so did his 'cronies'.

I debated whether hitting him with my broom, as on no account would I look like my mother. I never have done, and never would, would I??

"Rina, you're hair... it's black and wild," Hermoine whispered, sounding slightly scared as well. She handed me a mirror.

I did not like what I saw. Hermoine was right, it was black and wild, and my eyes had turned from bluish green, to black. I hate to admit it, but even Malfoy was right. (I hope I never have to say those three words again!!) I did look like the only picture I had of my mum. OH JOY!!!

I turned and walked up the steps, followed by Ron, Harry and Hermoine. "Sorry guys," I said quietly. I was still trying to calm myself down, as I didn't want to be hexed by a teacher, for looking similar to my mother. "I have never gotten that mad before. I guess that's why I never knew what would happen to my hair."

"Don't worry about it, mate. We know you're not your mother, thankfully. But did you see that weasel's face and his friend's? They looked as if they were going to wet themselves!" Ron laughed.

I knew then, as the others joined in, that my friendship with my fellow Gryffindors was going to be a strong one. And that not even my horrible family members could spoil it... could they??
Hope it was alright.

Love,
Sabrina

Two new posts!!!!Awesome!
Aww....poor Sabrina. She doesn't deserve a cousin like Malfoy!
Great writing as usual! PAMS!!!!!!!!!!!

~Amrita~

Hey Evangeline! Don't worry, I won't stop writing this, that's like asking me to stop being me... It's just not done!

I totally agree with you and truth be told, so does Sabrina. She hates the fact that she is related to him!!

Next post will be up in a minute!!!

Just to let you guys know, this is going to be from Malfoy's POV. I know that he is a no good, evil, (input other things about him here), and dumb, but I thought that you guys might want to see how he took the sight of me looking like my mother. Hope you like it!

Honestly, all I had done, was insult Potter again; and she just blows off the handle! As soon as I saw her hair change on the train, I knew I recognised her from somewhere, and when McGonagall called out Dumbledore, I knew she was my cousin.

I still can't believe that Aunt Bella, my Aunt Bella, got togther once with the headmaster's brother! Yuck! Love potion or not, it is still gross!

She really didn't look like Aunt Bella at all, and when I sent the owl regarding her daughter to her, Aunt Bella wrote back seeming a little mad, that Sabrina didn't get any of the 'Black' genes. How wrong was I?! Turns out Little Miss Dumbledore does have the 'Black' genes, yet it only shows when she is mad, no wrong choice of words... when she if furious.

I told Crabbe, Goyle, Zabini and Nott to follow me, as I grabbed my bag (which I had not dropped on the floor from fright, incase anyone assumes that), and headed towards the owlery.

"Uh, Draco, why are we going to the owlery?" asked Crabbe. God he is stupid, but he is definitly a good follower. Does whatever I tell him and rarely answers back.

"Because," I said, trying not to sound like I was patronising him, "I need to send a letter to Aunt Bella about the new developments in Sabrina. She will want to know that I think that Sabrina has potential of being evil, but she will need to make Sabrina really really furious."

"You really think that will work?" asked Nott. I liked Nott, he was better than Crabbe and Goyle, in both brains and strength. If I had to rely on anybody to beat someone else up, it would be Nott and Zabini. They are both really strong, though not as good looking as yours truly.

"Yeah," I said, finshing off a quick short note to Aunt Bella. "I think it will." I grinned as my owl flew out the window and headed towards Malfoy Mannor. "I think it will."

I agree, definitely not good, but hopefully, Sabrina will get her own back!!

Yeah, but its a Malfoy, when does it ever sound good?

P.S. scroll down for next post!!

Malfoys a git, just to let everyone know my opinion on the subject of the weasel!

The next week past by sooooo slowly!!! Every single lesson began the same, "NEWTS are important!" "Study hard, and no messing about!" "To get good marks you must listen!" Honestly, I swear there is a meeting before school starts, just so teachers can check their first lesson speeches!!!

Finally though, Saturday arrived and I was already up and dressed in the common room, waiting to see which group would be fully ready in the common room first. There was a battle going on to see which sex could get ready the fastest...

Flashback to last night...

"What would you guys do if you were able to have more time in the mornings?" asked Dean, as he, Seamus, Neville, Harry, Ron, Hermoine, Parvati, Lavender, Ginny and I, sat at a table in the common room doing our homework for Herbology.

"Okay... can anyone say random!" asked Ginny, which made the rest of us crack up.

"Well, I don't know what I would wish for, but I know what the girls would want," Seamus said, chewing on the top of his quill.

"What?" We all asked. The girls because we wanted to know whether he was going to be sensible or whether he was going to joke; the guys because for some reason, they knew that a joke was coming and Seamus was the best person in our year for jokes.

"They would spend it getting themselves ready, as they already take forever," Seamus laughed. The boys joined in heartily, we just scowled.

"That Seamus is extremely sexist!" Lavender said. "We just make sure that we look presentable by brushing our hair-"

"Putting clean clothes on-" Parvati continued.

"Moisturising to give us a healthy glow-" Ginny inputted.

"Brushing our teeth to make sure our breaths don't stink-" Hermione said.

"And putting makeup on, so we can get boys' attention." I concluded. Well that shut the boys right up.

"I bet you each a bag of your favourite Honeyduke sweets, that we will be down and dressed before you lot tomorrow morning," Harry said seriously and when Harry is serious, you knew he was telling the truth.

Hermoine, Lavender, Parvati, Ginny and I looked at each other and said, "DEAL!"...

End of Flashback

Which is how I have ended up in the common room, looking at both of the staircases to see which group would win those sweets. Ginny came rushing down with Hermoine just as Dean, Seamus and Harry ran down.

"Ron's just woken up and Neville is just finishing in the shower," shouted Harry, as Dean tripped on a stair and crashed into him.

"Well, Lavender and Parvati are up, and dressed. They're just finishing their makeup," retorted Hermoine.

Neville rushed down, "Ron's getting a bit distressed as he can't find the clothes he wants to wear!" (And Seamus said we speant all our time, phaffing about, for the right things!)

Pavarti was the next person down, "Sorry, we haven't lost have we? Lavender's just putting her makeup away. Hurry Lav!"

"So it all depends now on Ron and Lavender then?" asked Neville.

"Yup," came the reply.

"Hurry up Ron, you idiot!!" Shouted the boys.

"Lavender, hurry, you know you want to win!!" Hermoine, Ginny, Parvati and I shouted.

Both doors to the dormintories opened; Lavender and Ron appeared; and started running down the stairs. All of a sudden, a first year boy started to climb the girls' stairs and the stairs turned into a slide; which sent Lavender all the way to the common room floor, seconds before Ron did!

"YES!!!" We shouted, as we rushed to hug Lavender.

"Cheat! I would have won if that twerp hadn't have walked up the stairs!" said Ron, who was understandably upset. I mean come on, he had just lost a bag of Honeyduke sweets to a bunch of girls.

"Ron, don't get your wand tied into a knot. It was just a little game, and to tell you the truth, since I got down, it has taken 30 minutes for us all to be ready," I said, trying to console him, though truthfully I think it was just his pride that had been hurt.

"What do you say we go down to breakfast and then to the Quidditch pitch for the tryouts?" Asked Harry, giving his best friend a hug, whilst Dean, Neville and Seamus also mumbled words of consolation to Ron.

"That sounds like a plan. I'm starving!" Ron said, heading for the portrait.

"When aren't you hungry Ronald?" asked Hermoine. Everyone laughed.

'Today, seems to be going along quite nicely!' I said to myself, as I stepped out of the portrait and headed for the Great Hall, contemplating which sweets I would pick when we went to Hogsmeade in October.
There you go! I won't be able to post until Sunday night or Monday morning, as Jemma is going to London and doesn't have the internet. Stupid houses!

Love,
Sabrina

Sorry it took so long to reply, I didn't have the internet for a day and a half and I was quite busy last night.
Great posts Sabrina, and because I feel like doing this, Lizzie and I think they were awesome, lol, that was a little weird.
I especially like the battle to see who can get ready so fast, it was so funny when the girls won just because a boy was trying to get up the stairs.
I shall kill Draco if he hurts Sabrina, then I'll kill Bellatrix just because I can and she's an unfit mother! I think I'll let Snape survive since he has a heart, lol.
Jemma, don't go to London without me, please, I need to go see the city at least once in my young life, lol. Okay, so I'm not that young, but still. Also please add more soon whenever you can, Lizzie and I are going to go post more to our little FF.
