Harry Potter has elected that his god sister, Sapphire Black, has been acting most peculiar in the two weeks she spent with them before their sixth year started. Not that she wasn't already peculiar. With her stark white hair, and icy blue eyes, she didn't look like a sixteen year old in the slightest. Add that to her refusal to talk about her mother, and the odd summer camp she attended, and you have one strange teenager.
He was currently trying to breach the topic with one Hermione Granger.
"I'm telling you, Hermione, it's not like her. She's been quiet as a mouse, and her eyes have this pained look to them."
"Harry, honestly, her father just died for heavens sakes, of course she's not going to be acting normal!" Hermione snapped back at the boy who lived.
"But, Hermione..." "No, Harry, leave it be. I pity her more than words can say. She got a father only to lose him again. didn't you hear her say that her summer camp lost some campers as well?"
"No, actually, I didn't, maybe that's why she's acting so oddly."
"You know, it's really rude to talk about someone behind their back. If you want to know why I'm acting oddly, you should have just asked." Sapphire Black had spoken in a soft whisper from behind the two friends.
"Oh, Sapphire, I didn't even notice you there! how do you do that?" Harry asked incredulously.
"There's this thing, Harry, it's really wonderful. It's called magic." Sapphire retorted, a gleam back in her eyes. "anyway, Mrs. Weasley told me to tell you that if we don't hurry up, we'll miss the train. Again."

Sapphire's POV
"Ms. Black, Mr. Malfoy, I need the two of you in my office after the feast." Great. What did I do now? Dumbledore never ever wants to speak to me, the lonely little Black girl. As for Draco, I've no idea.
"Be Careful around him Sapphire, I think he's a Death Eater." Harry hissed in my ear as I followed Draco towards the hallway leading to the headmaster's office
Going to the headmaster's office was terribly awkward. Particularly with Draco of all people. Considering this summers events, I shouldn't be that concerned but still, Harry was convinced he was a Death Eater, and I had to know.
"Uh, Draco? Harry thinks your a Death Eater. I really don't agree, but..." I trail of, unsure of how to end the sentence.
Draco laughed. "No, Saffy, I'm not a Death Eater. It's a glamor. Old Voldieshorts thinks I'm on his side, but I'd never fight for someone who kills for fun."
I smiled at his use of my nickname. None of my Hogwarts friends called me that. but Draco did. Of course, he wasn't just a Hogwarts friend.
"Ah, Ms. Black , Mr. Malfoy. So nice to see you did not strangle each other on the way here." The voice of Dumbledore seemed to come from nowhere. "Also reassuring that I chose the right people for this task."
I glanced at Draco. My own confusion was mirrored on his face.
"I see you are confused. You have every right to be. Now, this year, Hogwarts will be receiving some exchange students from Mr. Brunner's Academy For the Gifted."
My eyes widened as he said the name. Draco broke out into a grin and shouted loudly "YES!"
I giggled. This year got so much better in the last five minutes.
Dumbledore looked at us, confused. "Children, do you know these's people?"
From behind Dumbledore, my favorite voice in the world sounded, with just the right amount of teasing in his voice.
"I hope they know us. Otherwise I've been dating an impostor."
