Jaylen Malfoy had it all. Parents who loved her, a mansion to live in; magic she would soon learn to control, she even had a twin brother to share it with. Scorpius and Jaylen Malfoy were inseparable for the first eleven years of their life. The pair were best friends, needing no one else to keep them entertained. However they did have to put up with other children, their parents would arrange play dates for them with children who had respected pureblooded parents. Jaylen and Scorpius secretly disliked almost all of the children their parents made them consort with, the twins only jointly liked one boy, Nathaniel Black, or as he demanded to be called Nate. Nate's family history was… interesting. His grandmother Natasha Harrow and his grandfather Regulus Black had conceived their first and only child out of wedlock. Regulus soon was killed by death eaters and didn't even know of their unborn child. To save the Black family name Natasha named her son Elijah Black. Elijah then got married and had Nate and so the Black family name lives on. From the moment the twins met Nate, they all knew that they would be the best of friends, and from that day on the three were almost never seen apart.
Draco and Astoria Malfoy loved their children. Both parents were happy that the Dark Lord had been stopped for good, but even their happiness couldn't stop Draco from hating Harry Potter. Draco worked in the Ministry and so did Harry. Although they were on different floors, Draco still went to great lengths to make sure he didn't ever have to see Harry's face. After Harry had killed Voldemort, Astoria and Draco had gotten married and soon reverted to their old pureblood ways. They only associated with other purebloods and snuffed muggles and muggle-borns alike. They raised their children in the same way that they had been raised by their parents, in a hope that their twins would carry on the old pureblooded traditions. From a young age they were taught proper "pureblood" manners and were forced to attend pureblooded "balls", which were just an occasion for the pureblood parents to stand around and decided who their children would marry once they were of age.
Little did Astoria and Draco know that their teachings had little effects on their children. From a young age Jaylen loved to read and she would read anything and everything. This proved useful because she was able to learn all the things her parents had "forgotten" to teach her. Even at eleven years old Jaylen had a good grasp on what the world was really like outside her safe pureblood bubble. She knew all about muggles and their crazy inventions and she knew all about Harry Potter and how he had saved the Wizarding World. Jaylen would share all of her findings with Scorpius so the twins were smart enough to create their own views and escape the views their parents pushed on them. While Jaylen could find all the information their parents were neglecting to tell them, she had no idea how to proceed with it, she didn't want to upset her parents and so she sat quietly and did whatever they told her, all the while secretly disagreeing with everything they said. Scorpius, on the other hand, had a different approach on dealing with their parents. He was brave enough to call them out whenever their parents would purposely not tell the twins something. He stood up for his beliefs and made it clear that he did not agree with his parents' traditional pureblooded ways. This caused many disagreements between Draco and Scorpius and at eight years old Scorpius started having a strained relationship with his father.
Eventually the time came for Scorpius, Jaylen and Nate to got to Hogwarts; they got their letters, went school shopping and got a compartment together on the Hogwarts Express. During the ride to Hogwarts not many words were exchanged between the trio. Each was lost in their own world. The three knew that their parents expected them to be in Slytherin, the house that their families were so proud to be a part of. While Nate didn't hold any resentment towards the house, Scorpius did. After years of being fed crap from his parents, Scorpius did not want to be in Slytherin. He knew that his parents would not be pleased with him if he was in any other house, but he couldn't help but despise the house he had been raised to admire. Jaylen, having read up on all of the Hogwarts houses, was scared she would not be placed in Slytherin. Not that she agreed with most wizards who came out of that house, but her parents expected her to be in Slytherin. After Scorpius started voicing his opinions and openly disagreeing with their parents, Jaylen had become the favorite child. She never told her parents what she thought about the way they viewed the world, and so they treated her like a princess. Jaylen had never let her parents down and she didn't want to start now, but part of her couldn't help but think, not Slytherin.
AN:
So this is the prologue, just to give you sort of an idea about the story. This is written in third person but the story will be in first person mainly through Jaylen's point of view. This story is going to be an Albus Potter/ Jaylen Malfoy story, but there will be some Scorpius/Rose and Nate/Heather (Another OC.) There will also be a little bit of James Potter/ Jessa-Maye (Another OC). This story is mainly going to be taking place their 7th year at Hogwarts. I don't plan to spend much time in the past, except for maybe a few flashbacks. The first chapter will be uploaded in a couple of days, and it is going to be the sorting and a few random scenes of The Five (Nate, Scorpius, Rose, Albus, and Jaylen) over the years. Also yes the chapters will be much longer, this is only the prologue and I didn't want to spoil the surprises just yet. Any questions feel free to message me, I hope you liked it! Also warning, Jaylen may end up being a Mary-Sue I am not planning her like that but my characters sometimes write themselves and I can't control it, you have been warned.
