Natalia

I sprint down the main hall and crash into the end of the hall with a bang,

"FUCKING BITCH!" I curse jumping up and down on one leg and holding the other where I banged my shin on the corner of the last door that has the gold plack engraved with Salazar Slytherin & Morgana Slytherin. I grumble under my breath and push open the door, the room is black with dark grey painted streaks through it. A black king bed with a matching suite, and a large bookshelf, taking a deep breath the smell of ink, parchment, and dust filling my nostrils. I start carefully looking through the room trying to find what I'm looking for. 

I start by looking through the bookshelf for a small box then move to the desk, then the wardrobe, then the bedside table, and finally after almost giving up I pull open the tall boy's top drawer. A small gasp escapes my lips when I finally see the box I was looking for, carefully picking up the box with the flick of my finger it opens and inside sits two wedding rings on a forest green pillow. I slip my hand to the band on my leg slip the box under the band and re-adjust the dress so it sits right hiding the band, box and my wand. I run out of the room closing the door gently behind me and run down the hall into my room quickly slipping my heels on. With a final glance at myself in the mirror and running my hand through my hair neatening it up, I hold the hair tie that was assigned as my portkey.

Third Person

In the ballroom of Malfoy Manor guests and mingling with families they deem respectable. The whole Black family and Malfoy are present as well as other families, the Rosiers, Mulciber, Greengrass, Carrows, Crabbes, Goyle, Flints, and many other families. Although standing alone with a drink in hand stands the only member of a family considered neutral by wizarding standards. When a girl none of them recognise walks in, her aura fierce and menacing commanding respect as she walks slowly and confidently into the room her dress clinging to her curves. It takes a few moments before a few people recognise who this mysterious woman is and it's the last person they would expect. Whispers echo through the room trying to figure out who this mysterious guest is, until finally Lucius walks forward,

"And you are?" He says looking her up and down,

"Natalia, Natalia Gryffindor," She says looking him up and down the same way he did her. She holds out the box waiting for Lucius to take it, "Here's your wedding gift I suggest you open it soon, I think you will enjoy it," Natalia says with a tight-lipped smile, Lucius looks at her with a cautious look,

"I'll open when we open all the others," He states plaining going to put it down on the gift table that is nearly overflowing. When Natalia looks up at him with a pointed look,

"I sincerely suggest you open it." She grits out getting frustrated and flicks her eyes between the small box in Lucious' hands and glaring up at him. He scoffs slightly at her attitude but opens the box either way. When his eyes fall upon the matching rings he struggles to maintain a neutral face shock clouding over his eyes.

"But...these...how..." Lucious trails off, staring at the wedding bands in his grasp,

"That for me to know, and you to never find out, Malfoy. Enjoy your wedding and I hope you treat Narcissa with every bit of respect she deserves," Natalia says with a fake smile plastered on her face her tone low and betraying what she's really thinking. Before she walks off she gives him a tight-lipped smile as her eyes trail around the room, noticing all the curious looks from everyone. Natalia's interest falls on a blond-haired girl wearing a burgundy-purple dress standing by herself with a drink in hand. She smiles lightly at the teen and makes her way over to her instead of walking to her friend hoping that if she stays away it will be better for Sirius.

"You here to berate me about how I'm a 'blood traitor' and how I don't deserve to be her-" She starts grumbling before Natalia cuts her off,

"One I'm not, two, I didn't know you were a pureblood, three I'm a blood traitor too so" She says with a smile waving her off. The unknown girl looks her up and down with a sceptical look, looking over the forest green dress, black and silver snake heels, emerald and silver necklace and dark makeup,

"Riiighhhhtt..." She says sceptically making the Gryffindor girl laugh,

"I'm Natalia Gryffindor, a well-known blood traitor and deciding to see how long it takes for my arsehole classmates to realise it's me," She explains with a shrug smiling at the teen,

"Aurora Diggory," She says cautiously while Natalia's pales slightly,

"I'm sorry...what was your name again...I just zoned out," She says slowly,

"Aurora...Diggory," She says slowly looking at Natalia with a puzzled expression, she gulps and looks away for a second,

"It's nice to meet you," Natalia says turning back to her with a slightly pained smile,

"I'm sorry do you know me or have some problem with me?" Aurora asks defensively because of how she responded. Her eyes widen and shakes her head immediately,

"No, no I just...used to know someone with the same last name is all," Natalia quickly explains trying to push the image of Cedric's dead body out of her mind and the destroyed look of Amos. Aurora nods slowly still watching her warily, soon Lucius is getting everyone to sit down getting ready for the ceremony. Aurora and Natalia find a seat together as everyone fills into different seats. The Black family make their way and sit in the same row and Walburga hisses something in Sirius's ear shoving him into the row first before. Sirius grumbles and begrudgingly sits next to Natalia not realising it is one of his best friends while Regulus looks slightly amused being the only one in his family to recognise Natalia. Sirius doesn't mutter a word to Natalia the whole time with a permanent frown on his face. Natalia struggles to contain her laughter getting strange looks from Aurora.
