The sun shinned through the dark lake, causing it to lighten up the water and window,y/n woke up at 7am and began to get ready.
"Books check,potion cauldron check....hmm..." y/n thought for a moment debating whether she should take Nova with her or leave her there sleeping.
Eventually, y/n decided to take Nova because she woke up and wanted to give with her.
* Good morning, Misstress* Nova said happily hissing
"Good morning Nova,did you sleep well?" Y/n asked, looking at Nova with love.
*I slept alright,but when's breakfast fast?* Nova said, swaying her body a bit.
"I was just about to go. Come on, Illinois treat you there,"
Over the past 2 years and 3 months Y/n and Nova grew as did their relationship,wherever Y/n went Nova insisted that she go's too,stubborn as y/n was she argued with Nova about going places with her but over time she accepted it and let her come wherever she went.
Some time passed as they were in the Great Hall eating breakfast. y/n looked over to see Harry enjoying himself with the redhead and fluffy haired girl.
Then Ember sat across from y/n and asked how she slept,making small talk.
"I didn't dream of anything last night,but I did think about how this day was going to go." Y/n replied
"Aww.. really? I had a dream about my family and that we were having a picnic, " Ember said, smiling
"So tell me, Ember, who's the guy at the table wearing all black? Near Professor Quirrell, " y/n asked as she was looking over at them
"Oh...that's professor Snape,he teaches potions class,but everyone knows he wants DADA class. He's been after it for years." Ember replied
"Hmm...alright then" Y/n said as she was thinking about something 'Weird...they all seemed interested when I went up there last night,perhaps I should get on their good side. Find out what makes them tick'
Then y/n got up and said she was done eating and looked at her chart for classes.

"Oh,we have the same classes, but how come yours goes until 2 pm? Mine goes till 3 pm." Ember said, looking at y/n's chart
"I don't know,perhaps it's for studying or something. I'm not sure. " y/n said unbothered by her chart

Sometime passed after Y/n and Nova ate breakfast. There was an hour before her first class as she had transfiguration and then potions.
So y/n being her,left to go study all her books and found each subject quite easy to do. Then it hit 9:45am and y/n left her room with Nova and began walking to potions class as did other people in the first year.
As soon as she sat down in a desk, Ember came as well and just settled all her stuff down to begin class,while y/n did it before her and wait for class to start.
10 minutes later~
As soon as it hit 10 am, the door flew open, and in walked Professor Snape with his cloak that made him look like a bat.
"There will be no foolish wand-waving or silly incantations in this class."
Snape turned around and inspected the students, then began talking again
"As such I don't except many of you to appreciate the subtle science and exact art the disposition making however,for those select few,who possess the pre-despositon...I can teach you how to bewitch the mind and ensnare the senses. I can tell you how to bottle fame,brew glory, and even put a stopper in Death."
Snape then turned to Harry, who was writing in his book,taking note when Snape called out again.
" Then again, maybe some of you have come to hogwarts in possession of abilities so formidable that you feel confident enough to not pay attention!" Snape spoke harshly at the end, staring at Harry.
The bushy haired girl then tapped Harry, which made him stop writing and put his quill down.
" Mr. Potter....our..new celebrity. Tell me what would I get if I added powdered root of asphodel to an infusion of wormwood?"
Harry then kept silent as the bushy haired girls hand shot right up.
" You don't know?" Snape asked."we'll let's try again where Mr. Potter, would you look at me if I asked you to find me a bezoar?"
"I don't know, sir," Harry said, shaking his head
" And what is the difference between monkshood and wolfbane?" Snape asked testing to see if Harry knew the difference.
"I don't know, sir," Harry said again, looking at Snape.
" Clearly Fame isn't everything, is it Mr. Potter?" Snape asked and then turned and asked if anyone knew.
As the bushy haired girl still had her hand up,Snape ignored her and then caught your eyes.
"Clearly Hermione knows,it's a pity not to ask her," Harry said, looking at Hermione
"Slience," Snape spoke as the students started giggling and caught his eye.
Y/n being bored just rolled her eyes 'God just start the lesson already,you fools' y/n thought to herself, then decided to put her hand up to get it over with.
Snape turned as did Harry and Hermione
"Yes...Ms.Potter?" Snape asked, looking at you intensely.
"Asphodel and Wormwood make a sleeping potion so powerful it is known as the Draught of living death. As for a Bezoar, it is a stone taken from the stomach of a goat, and it will save you from most poisons. As for wolfbane and monkshood ,they are the same plant,which also goes by the name Aconite. " Y/n replied with an emotionless expression,which made Professor Snape stare at her for a moment before smirking a little that only y/n caught.
"20 points to slytheirn....Ms.Potter appears to be more intelligent and responsible than you Mr.Potter" Snape said before he continued his class
"Gryffindore's, note that 5 points will be taken from your house cause of your classmates' cheek," Snape said, then began writing on his desk.

Classes passed swiftly for the day, and y/n ended earlier than others, so she went to the library and started to read some books.
Catching her interest was a black book with strange marks that seemed to be calling out to her.
*Misstress...* Nova hissed lightly
"What is it Nova are you okay?" Y/n asked
*it calls* Nova hissed again
" I know but we can't go over there that's the restricted section" y/n said as she looked through the gate and tried to ignore the book as she walked away to a nearby table.
"Perhaps I can get it for you, Misstress?* Nova asked as she slithered down and out of y/n's robes
"Alright, just be careful, Nova," y/n said with concern in her voice as she watched Nova slither away under the gate.
A while later, Nova came back with the book, and y/n picked it up.
"𝑺𝒂𝒍𝒂𝒛𝒂𝒓 𝑺𝒍𝒚𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒓𝒊𝒏: 𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝒃𝒐𝒐𝒌 𝒐𝒇 𝒃𝒍𝒐𝒐𝒅?" Y/n thought out loud and started to read the book as it shinned a dark green light. Y/n quickly closed it and then opened it again as the light faded and the letters appeared.
*Misstress....I say we read it without anyone bothering us?* Nova hissed quietly
"You're right. Come on, let's go explore some more." As y/n packed all her books and Salazar's book as well,Nova slithered into her robes, and they both went to explore the castle.
Y/n found a bathroom that nobody enters because of a ghost named moaning myrtle.
Curious, she entered the bathroom and looked around, trying to find anything else that was interesting.
*Misstress look....a snake* Nova hissed as she had her head out of y/n's robes.
Y/n looked to she where Nova was looking, and it was a sink.
"There's nothing there, Nova."
*yes, there is....look closer Misstress * Nova hissed
Y/n went closer, and suddenly, she found a small snake in between the lines.
'Odd...what's a snake doing a girl's bathroom?'
*Misstress....I sense another snake* Nova spoke
Just as Nova spoke, y/n heard a whisper
*Another Speaker....Different yet so very alike...master will be pleased* The whisper said
"Did you hear that? You asked Nova as She nodded her head
*I'm hungry Misstress* Nova hissed lightly after a few moments
"You're always hungry Nova,are you growing?" You asked as you began walking out of the bathroom and to the great hall for food.
As supper was being held, you sat between a 5th year and Ember as they ate,Nova came out and ate food. The people around her looked up and then began eating again as Nova was happily munching on a soft tart.
"Soo...how was classes?" The 5th year asked suddenly
"it was alright," Ember said, smiling at the 5th year as he smiled back at her.
"How about you?" He looked at you and smiled.
"...."
"She doesn't talk much, does she?" The boy asked, and Ember just nodded, yes.
"Hey y/n, my family is having a big party,those who are required to come will be dismissed from school for a week. You're not required, but i can ask for you to come,but it won't be for a long while." Ember said as the boy next to you said he'll be attending that party as well.
"I don't have anything to wear, and it's the first day of school." Y/n replied
"That's okay,I have a few dresses you can wear." Ember said excitedly
"Alright,I would love to meet new people." y/n smiled
'This could be an opportunity for me,meeting high-class families. A perfect way of becoming known' y/n thought to herself just before she got up to head to her room with Nova, who was stuffed from all the food she ate and fell asleep peacefully.
As you got to your room ,you lay Nova down on the bed and began getting clothes ready for a shower.
As you finished your shower you looked over to see that Nova was still asleep checking the time you saw that it was 10:30 already and got into bed with Nova and fell asleep after thinking about the invitation that would come later in the year.
