My life at Hoggwarts

My Life at Hoggwarts by: Kiara Maul akaKerri
Dedicated to all those that have stuck by me and those who I have met over the last year or so.  I love you all.


    My name is Kiara Maul and this is the story of my life living at Hoggwarts, school of witchcraft and wizardry.

    I came to be in the custody of one Albus Dumbledore, shortly after the untimely demise of my mother, Aurora Maul.  It would seem that Dumbledore is my godfather, I learned of this shortly after he saved me from the clutches of the vial man named Lucius Malfoy.

    You see, Lucius Malfoy is the right hand man for my father, one, Lord Voldem0rt.  Voldem0rt is the world's darkest wizard ever known.  I happen to be his daughter and believe me, it's not fun.

    Well, anyway, I am not here to tell about my history, I think you all know that by now, what I am here for is to tell of the friends I have made over the last 2 years.  It would seem amazing, the friendships one can make in 2 years, but, well, I have made some of the best, most devoted and wonderful friends a person could ever deserve.  Well, here's the story, and I hope that you like it.

Chapter 1

    Kiara woke in the middle of the night to the sounds of the furious storm outside the castle.  She sat up on bed, both excited and worried about tomorrow, for tomorrow was the first day of school and all the students would be filling the castle in a matter of a few hours.

    She wondered about that boy she saw over the summer, just before she went back home to her mother's house.  Just hours before that Dark Wizard came on killed her.  That was the reason she was here now, sleeping in the Tower of Hoggwarts School for Witchcraft and Wizardry.  That is how she came to know the Headmaster of the school, Albus Dumbledore, was her godfather.  She continued to think about the dark haired boy she had seen.  Something about him kept her thoughts straying back.  She even dreamt of him since then, it was a sad dream, one where she laid next to him, feeling all the love her tiny child like body could feel then suddenly, he was snatched away by some unseen force never to return again.  She pulled her blankets tighter around her as she felt the feeling of total loss, once again.  

    After a long while, Kiara got out of bed, threw on her cloak, over her sleeping gown, and walked out of her room.  This place, this castle was her home now and there was still so much of it she had never explored.  What else is there for me to do, I can't sleep, might as well take another look.  She said, smiling to herself.  It would seem that she had an uncanny knack of getting into trouble, but she could take care of herself, she was, after all, a sorceress and a good one at that.  The thoughts that swept through her mind as she walked the halls of the castle were as to how her godfather expected her to learn to use a wand.  She had never picked one up before, no need to, however, Dumbledore said it was a good thing to learn, even if she wasn't a witch.  They had gone down to Ollivanders and found a wand for her.  It was a 6-½ inch willow with a dragon's chin hair in it.  

    She happened along a new door she hadn't seen yet, even though she had walked this particular hall many times.  She grasped the handle and turned.  The door opened up easily enough and she walked in.  

    The torches on the wall lit up as she entered.  Showing her a great many golden statues and other trinkets.  Suddenly the door slammed shut behind her and she felt dizziness come over her.  When it abated, she looked around once again and noticed the door slightly ajar.  She went to it immediately and flung it open, to find she was now, stepping out into the West Tower.  A sudden feeling of terror, followed by a great longing to go back into the room swept through her.  She slammed the door shut behind her and ran down the stairs, back to the hall below.

    She walked back through he halls, wondering what it was that made her want to seek this room out so badly.  Soon, she was back at her bedroom door and she turned the knob and walked in.

    "Couldn't sleep, I see."  Dumbledore said from the chair, in the back of her room.  
"Godfather, I – I, ya, I couldn't sleep."  Kiara replied.
"Don't worry Kiara, soon, you'll have all the work you need to keep you busy and not much more time for exploration.  You found a new room, one of which I would have to ask you no longer seek out.  Go to bed, you have a long day tomorrow."  Dumbledore said as he rose from the chair and walked past Kiara to the door.
"What was that room?  It moved when I was in it.  I thought the rooms around here didn't do that."  Kiara replied, wanting more than anything to find out what that room was about.
"Don't think about it Kiara, I am sure, you won't find it again."  With that said, Dumbledore left her room and Kiara sat on her bed, thoughts of the coming day, filling her with great anticipation.  Finally, she fell asleep again and dreamed of both the dark haired boy and the room, which she had found.

"Who are you?  What are you doing in my dream?  How do I know you?  Answer me!"  Kiara screamed at the dark figure walking through her dreams.  Suddenly the Dark cloaked figure turned his head and she saw two, red glowing beams of light where his eyes should have been.  Kiara screamed then her dream changed.

    "Hi, my name id Kiara and you are?"  She asked the dark haired boy.  HE wouldn't answer.  "Hello?  Are you listening to me?"  She asked once again.  The boy turned his handsome face to hers and smiled, but said nothing.  In her dream, she was smiling and a great warmth came over her as of one she had never felt before, his smile was the most comforting and soothing feeling she had ever felt, as if it completed her and took away al lthe nightmares and trouble she had felt through out her life.

    The rest of the night, Kiara slept in warmth and dreamless.  The only picture held in her mind was of that dark haired boy, with the lightning scare on his forhead.  Harry Potter, she said in her sleep.  Kiara smiled.

nice!!!

[Kiara Johnson]

     The next day, all the teachers in the school began to arrive, they started early in the morning, Kiara was introduced to each of them as they arrived.  One Teacher in particular, Professor Snape, merely nodded curtly and gave a sort of sneer towards her and that was all.  Kiara immediately did not like him.  

    Later, the students began to arrive, Kiara was told to wait in the room behind the head table in the Main Hall.  She peered out a crack in the door as the students filed in.  She watched as all the first years were sorted into their houses, finally, after what seemed forever, Dumbledore called her out to be sorted.

    Kiara walked into an overly quiet hall, evidently, the students had never had some one sorted in the fifth year.  Kiara watched them as she walked along the floor towards the sorting hat.  The boy with the scare, caught her eye, he smiled, as did she.  

    Once the hat was set upon her head, it came to life.
"So, you're a new one, you are.  Different, not like the rest, hmmmm.  I think, yes, oh, I see now."  The hat said to her quietly, then with a loud voice, "SLYTHERIN!"  It yelled.  

    Kiara stood and walked slowly to the Slytherin table and took a seat next to a blond boy, of about her own age.

Chapter 2

    "Draco, Draco Malfoy."  The boy said, extending a hand for her to take.

    Kiara took his hand and smiled.  "Kiara, Kiara Maul, nice to meet you."  She smiled, then looking around the table she noticed a lot of the Slytherins looking at her, they all seemed interested in finding out just who this fifth year student was.

    She met a pair of stunning blue eyes, they belonged to probably the best-looking boy she had ever seen in her life.  She smiled then looked away.

    "Hi.  I'm Isis, I hope you like it here."  Came a voice next to her.  Kiara turned and saw a tiny girl, with Hazelnut hair that was full of curls and extended just below her shoulders.  Kiara found an instant liking to this little girl.  She smiled friendly and said hi back.

    "What year are you in?"  Kiara asked.  Not really sure.
"Fifth, same as you."  Isis replied.

    The rest of the dinner went along with Kiara talking to both Draco and isis.  She was beginning to fit in, her worries forgotten.

    Maybe this will be ok after all.  Kiara thought as they all walked out of the Hall towards the Slytherin common room.

[Kiara Johnson]

          In the common room, the girls all headed to their dorm and the boys theirs, Kiara caught one more glimpse of that guy she saw at the table and her heart leapt slightly as he too turned and looked her way and smiled as he was walking to the dorm.

    Once inside, Kiara went to Isis and asked a few questions about this guy she kept seeing.
"Who is he?  What's his name?"  Kiara was asking as her and Isis changed for bed.
"His name is Max and I don't really know a whole lot about him except that he seems to be a bit different from the rest f the Slytherin guys.  He's nicer."  Isis said as she slipped under her blankets.

    "Hmm, well, does he have a girl-friend?"  Kiara pressed.
"No, he doesn't.  At least, not at the school."  Came another reply from across the room.

    Kiara looked across the room to find the source of the interruption and saw a girl sitting on her bed and watching them..  She was about Kiara's height with dark brown hair'
"Antonella" She replied at Kiara's glance.
"Oh, hi and, thanks."  Kiara replied with a smile.  Although she wasn't  too sure rather this information had been given up to shut her up or to actually help, she couldn't tell.  Kiara and Isis sat up in bed for a long while talking about classes and guys then finally nodded off to sleep at around 2 or 3 in the morning.
