Early harry woke up to a strange sound coming from the main room in the Slytherin commons and went down to see what it was. Draco and Crabbe were sitting with Goyle on the leather couch sorting through books and talking about classes. "Hey guys, what are you doing up this early?" Harry said sitting across from them on the other couch and pulling out his books Hagrid had helped him get. 

"Potter. Crabbe, Goyle, and myself have the same first class. What do you have?" Draco questions.

 harry pulls out his class list and takes a look. "I think it says that I have flying practice, potions, charms, and defense against the dark arts." Harry looks at Malfoy who had been looking at his list too. 

"Looks like we have all the same classes hey potter." Draco let out a sort of villainous chuckle then glared at Goyle and Crabbe. "You best not let that mudblood granger make us look stupid in class. So be smart!" 

Goyle looked at Crabbe then back at Draco. "We'll at least look smart in dark arts with all the spells we know." He winked and nudged Crabbe's shoulder. 

"True." Draco and his whole family lived in a place protected by many enchantments and spells. They called it Malfoy manor because only Malfoys lived there.

Suddenly the three stood up and this caused harry do the same. "Let's go get some grub before class starts. I recon the post should be here shortly too." Draco walked over to the door Crabbe and Goyle at his heels. 

"Duh Goyle, go grab the books you dunce." Draco gave Goyle an evil glare that sent him running for the stack of books that Malfoy at set on the table. 

Harry walks out behind them and follows them to the great hall. harry remembers hearing the granger girl when they first came in. 'That's not real the ceiling is just bewitched to look like the night sky. I read about it in Hogwarts, a history.' The memory of the brunette girl made harry look at the Gryffindor table. 

Scanning the table he couldn't seem to find the two people with whom he had road on the train. 

Draco nudged his arm. "Potter what are you looking at? You aren't looking for that filthy mudblood and her friend are you?" Draco had read Harry's thoughts, he wondered if Draco knew that secretly harry wished he could be friends with them. After all they seemed nice on the train. 'Then again, he thought, I don't know much about magic yet maybe they are the wrong sort to be hanging around.'

Harry followed Draco to the large table they had sat at last night during the sorting, and picked a seat where Goyle and Crabbe sat on either side of him with his back to the wall so he could watch the Gryffindor's. A loud screech sounded from high up and owls started to fly in. 

"post is here." Draco called reaching up and grabbing as something fell into his hands, dropped by an owl. 

"Post? Post comes by owl?" harry looked confused. 

"Of course potter how did you think we magical folk keep in touch. Surely you didn't think we use that filthy muggle mail way?" Draco sneered and opened his letter setting aside the newspaper. 

"You get the paper to? Dose everyone get it?" Harry questions looking at the headline.

"Jezz potter what have you been living under a staircase all this time? Father sends me the paper when he is done with it." Draco says gazing at harry as if he had said something stupid. 

"Actually I have..." harry trailed off and begun thinking about his aunt and uncle Petunia and Vernon. "I don't want to go back to that awful place. They treat me worse than they treat dirt and make me live basically in a closet." Harry said wondering if the head of school would really make him go back to such torment. 

"They really do that potter?" Draco looked a bit concerned, then started to read his letter.

"To my son Draco,
It seems like only yesterday we were getting your schools supplies and now look, sorted into Slytherin. You're doing me proud son. So tell me that potter boy must be in school this year?where did he wind up being sorted into? Gryffindor I suppose? No worry. We need him to bring back Voldemort. Oh and Draco... your mother is proud of you too."

Draco looked up from the letter at harry who was busy looking at the Gryffindor table again, scanning it for any sign of the two Gryffindors. "Potter, if you look for them people will notice now stop gawking at granger and focus on food for now." Draco looked at the paper not finding anything interesting to read about and tossing it aside. 

"Might I have a look at that?" harry pointed at the newspaper. "Sure whatever I'm done with it. And then the headline caught his eye. "look at this Draco... believed to be the work of dark wizard or witches unknown... bank keepers insist that nothing was taken... the volt in question number 731 had in fact been emptied that very someday. That's odd that's the volt Hagrid took me to?" harry was getting some weird looks from the other Slytherins at the table now. 

"What was in it potter?" Draco asked looking at the paper and sneering at potter. "I don't know he wouldn't tell me... just said it was Hogwarts business, very secret." Draco turned to the professor table at the front of the room and held up the paper. Snape saw this and looked at his own paper nodding to show Draco he saw the article.

He put the papers down, no one had seen them do this little exchange except for harry. Harry looked around pretending to have been looking at something else when this happened so Draco wouldn't get mad at him for no reason. Then grabbed some toast and put an egg on it with a couple strips of bacon making a sandwich. He was eating it while he watched Snape. The teacher next to Snape got up and turned to leave setting off a pain reaction in Harry's forehead. He grabbed it and let out a soft cry the only the few people around him heard. 

"Potter what's wrong with you?" Draco said not giving him a second glance. 

"My head hurts is alright I'm sure it's nothing." Harry lied then he saw the two Gryffindors walk in and avoided looking at them as they sat down. 

"Hurry and finish your food then before we have to go to class." Draco growls and Crabbe and Goyle his voice still quiet but with a hint of mean. "I think it's about time to go let's get a head start."
