Part 1
Lesa Evans did not want to go to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. She'd been begging her parents for years to let her go to Beauxbatons Academy of Magic, but they simply refused. Eve and Kyle Evans wanted their daughter to go to Hogwarts to be with her cousin, "the boy who lived", the ever so famous Harry James Potter. Though they had never met before and he didn't know of either her or her father Kyle Evans, brother to Lilly Evans, existence. Lesa had always resented Harry, feeling like he had taken things that were rightfully hers. She was born just 2 hours before him, though she wasn't important enough to have a prophecy written about her, she did however end up half Veela from her mother's side. Her Veela side had always been a gift to her, since she knew that she had gotten lucky with being one and that not all girls born to a full Veela mother would inherit the traits.
When it came time to get her school supplies she decided to have a wand made for her instead of buying one that was already made. So when she went to Mr. Ollivander and gave him specifics that she wanted for her wand, she was surprised when he agreed to make it. 9 1/2 inches, mahogany wood with the hair of a Veela as the core. She knew Mr. Ollivander didn't like using Veela hair in wands, as it made them more temperamental, but the hair was her own and she knew that it would make the wand easier for her and her alone to use. While she was there she picked up three times the amount of potions ingredients as the other first years were getting. Since she was a little girl she'd always loved Potions and when she learned how to write and send an owl on her own she began corresponding with Severus Snape, as he was one of the most highly respected Potions Masters in the area. She'd already perfected the potions he taught in school past the N.E.W.T. exams and was learning how to make some of his own private potions now. Taking extra classes with him was the only thing she was looking forward to about Hogwarts.
It eventually became time for her to say goodbye to her parents and board the Hogwarts Express to join her classmates. After a tearful failed attempt to get them to change their minds one last time, she glumly got on the train and settled into an empty compartment. She sat alone for a while, the motion of the train lulling her to sleep, until a cute guy with brown hair opened her compartment door and poked his head in. "My friends and I are looking for a compartment, mind if we sit with you?" he had asked her politely. She smiled at him and gestured for him to come it. He was quickly followed by a pug looking girl, 2 gorilla sized boys, and a blond boy with striking blue eyes. She smiled to them all and looked out the window as they talked. The brown haired boy had sat next to her and turned to face her. "I'm Blaise by the way. Blaise Zambini." she told him her name, and then he told her the names of his friends. The pug girl's name was Pansy Parkinson, the two gorillas were Vincent Crabbe and Gregory Goyle, and the boy with the sticking blue eyes was Draco Malfoy. The two of them sat and chatted for the ride, and she began to wonder if he was going to end up her friend.
