Chapter 20- Slytherin common room and common sense

Draco's pov

Draco had a confusing day, first he met the boy who lived, Who apparently didn't want to be friends with him, 'why the bloody hell not?' Was all he could think about since Potter refused to even shake his hand. What a pones! Then he arrived at Hogwarts got into his dream house, and he was thrilled... for about five minutes, till he heard there is another Potter and he also was sorted into Slytherin. Then we thought that's my chance for revenge, after all as the prince of Slytherin, Draco would make sure he knows his betters, well that's what Draco thought like until he saw The Potter twin start taking with everyone in the table. It felt like he knows everything, when Theo talked about the herbology class he is interested in, Potter started talking with him about the difference between mundane plants and magical plants. When Zabini began talking about transfiguration theory, he started to talk about energy transformation and when Greengrass started talking about potions, without even blinking he started talking about the reactions every ingredient with another. So when they finally started talking about their homes, even though most of them already knew each other, Draco felt it's his time to shine.

"I'm a pure-blood, of course. I was being prepared to Hogwarts since the moment I was born, as you wouldn't expect anything but the very best out of the son of Lucius Malfoy."

He was sure, no matter what they would hear next, he would become the leader of this year's Slytherin, after all, he had Crabbe and Goyle as minions, Pansy as a friend, Theo as a ally and even Greengrass as a colleague, even if Zabini and Davis want to be independent they would cave, after all who else can become the leader?

Then it was Potter's turn.

"I'm a half-blood, I learned about Hogwarts from James Potter about one month ago, so if I don't know anything I should, please tell me." He said it so politely that Draco was so impressed, he didn't even noticed it until Theo asked "what do you mean 'you heard about Hogwarts just a month ago'?" "I was raised by muggles as my biological parents wanted to focus more about the 'boy who lived'" "so that's why we never heard the potters had two sons. So which one are you? The older or younger twin?" Greengrass asked with much interest. "Older, why?" "That means you are the heir of the Potter lordship!" Zabini exclaimed. "That's huge!"

It was at that moment Draco knew his plans were destroyed, Zabini and Davis now had a different opinion of a leader, Greengrass will play both sides and Theo would do as always what ever he wants. 'No, I have to find a way to make sure he knows his place.' With that thought, Draco joined the other first years as they were leaving with the perfects, it took about 5 minutes to get from the grand hall to the Slytherin dungeon, and that's only cause we were going slowly, when they arrived at The entrance it was located behind a bare stretch of stone wall, exactly as his father told him.

The perfect told them never to reveal The password to any student who is not Slytherin, then told the wall "Merlin"

When they arrived uncle Severus was already there, they all stood before him when he started talking "you were all deemed worthy to become part of the elite group who is called Slytherin, it means you're ambitious, cunning and smart, but that's not all Slytherin is about, it's also about the drive to excellence and fraternity, even in the hat song he says 'In Slytherin You'll make your real friends.'

That's why, we have a few rules in here:

1) I don't take points from you, but if I punish one with detention-every one is punished. You see, every good Slytherin knows that the house points system is idiotic, answering questions- points, doing something wrong- points. So as I expect better from you, I decided to make the system crash, that's why you would hear about how unfair I am point wise, because when I give you points you should look proud but feel ashamed, as the more points you get from my, the less benefits you will have inside the house, if you get less than 10, you can have a private room, less than 25 a privet study but room with other kids, less than 50 a regular study and room and more than 50 detention. I really hope we won't win this year.

2) if we are family, it's natural we will have a fight in here, I will say it only ones! Arguments would only happen inside our dungeon! Magical fights will only happen in the arena! outside we are united!

You will have the first man in a private room everyone, my office hours are Saturday from 10 to 12.

Go to sleep."

As Draco laid on his bed, he went over what uncle Severus call them and his last thought before falling asleep was 'maybe I could use this'
