Disclaimer: I love reviews!
It was the first day of classes but Esmeralda didn't want to wake up. She rolled over and tried to will the sun to go down. It didn't but her curtains closed and her head hurt.
"Esmeralda, you said that you wanted to meet my friends." Said Ginny already fully dressed in her uniform. She put her hands on her hips and tapped her foot. She didn't have much experience dealing with fey crossbreeds but she was still impatient.
"So?" said Esmeralda as she turned over and put a pillow over her heads
"Well, it's morning." Said Ginny looking at the things that Esmeralda had spread around her living quarters and noticed a very peculiar amulet that seemed to be unearthly. She didn't touch it though, she had learned her lesson about touching peculiar magical things.
"I'm fully aware when does class start around here anyway?"
"In half an hour weren't you listening yesterday? Besides you said you wanted to meet my friends."
"Again with the friends? You sound like a broken record you know that?" said Esmeralda getting up and pushing the long white hair out of her eyes.
"Record?" asked Ginny noting that it was a familiar word
"It's a muggle music recording device. I'll be out of here soon, save me some food but no eggs."
"No eggs, alright." Said Ginny as she left. Esmeralda got up and stretched. She put a lock of silky white hair behind her pointed elfin ear and decided to get herself dressed for the day. She looked at the uniform the school had forced the students to wear in disgust.
"I'll just have to d something about that. Why is everything so drab and boring, especially this room? Well, I'll have to fix that as well." Said Esmeralda as she began to turn her outfit various shades of pink. When she was done her outfit consisted of a sparkling light pink blouse, a hot pink skirt held out by crinolines, and three inch pink heals that she used magic to help her walk in. she hoped that she could put a perception spell that would make it look normal to the adults but that would have been difficult. She then turned her attention to the dorm room and decided to make her room look more like Avalon, or at least what she had always pictured Avalon would look like.
"Hmm, maybe not as much pink as I would like. Father always said it had a very natural look but there was a very grand castle. I know! I shall make everything wooden and put more plants in." said Esmeralda who had greatly overestimated her own abilities. Soon the entire room grew wild like a jungle and her outfit turned purple.
"I guess I either over taxed myself or at least greatly over estimated my own abilities. No! I just over taxed myself, I could never be anything less than incredibly powerful. I should really stop talking to myself, it's a sign of insanity." Said Esmeralda as she fled the room just before vines could trap her. She fell down the stairs are her shoes turned into normal but purple school shoes.
"You!" said Harry as he stopped talking to Ron and Hermione. He had woken up that morning hoping to be with Hermione or at least an attractive female student preferably intelligent. He had gone into the common room and saw that none of the female students were mobbing him but Ron was angry. The entire trio decided to talk about it like adults and then came to the conclusion that it was wrong to accept favors from a less than human first years stranger.
"Me?" said Esmeralda as she limped towards what she hoped was the way out and then to the great hall where she would meet Ginny's friends.
"Your magic wore off and you made me fight with my best friend!"
"Well, my magic may have worn off but I didn't force you to fight with everyone. I simply made every girl fall madly in love with you." Said Esmeralda without stopping. The entire trio followed her but she paid them no mind, she needed food and a nice cup of juice before she started to interact with anyone in a meaningful way.
"I only wanted Hermione to love me!" said Harry. Hermione herd that and smacked him in the back of his head.
"Why would you cast a spell like that? How would you cast a spell like that?" asked Hermione who didn't enjoy being treated like she had no say in her own life
"I'm obviously part fey and not a morning person if you haven't noticed." Said Esmeralda sarcastically as she entered the great hall. She found Ginny sitting with several other girls and decided that these must be the friends Ginny was talking about
"Well that doesn't give you an excuse to mess with my best friend of my girl." Said Ron physically stopping her. Esmeralda took his hand from her shoulder very forcefully and kneed him in the groin.
"I didn't do anything that he didn't want me to now leave me alone!" said Esmeralda getting the attention of the entire great hall. The trio didn't know what to do besides get Ron to the hospital wing and work out what to do about this new student.
"Hello everybody please forgive me for being so late. As all of you can see I got held up. Ginny, I trust you saved me some food?" asked Esmeralda as she sat down. Everyone stared at her because of a combination of her strange outfit and what she just did.
"Yes I did, now why did you kick my brother in the…boy region?" asked Ginny as Esmeralda began to stuff food into her mouth. She muttered something unintelligible while food fell from her mouth. Everyone was disgusted but said nothing.
"She said that nargles got to her." Said Luna on a very airy voice as she ate a piece of toast
"Nargles?" asked Esmeralda as she finished what she was chewing. She then quickly downed an entire giblet of juice
"They're creatures that-" started Luna as Esmeralda started choking. Lavender Brown began to slap her in the back and she stopped choking.
"No, he just came between me and breakfast now I suppose your wondering why I've had strawberry here collect you all."
"It's Ginny" said Ginny who wanted to be called Ginny, maybe even Virginia, but never anything as degrading as Strawberry
"I like Strawberry better, they turn your clothes pink. Now I've gathered you here in a sort of scratch my back scratch yours sort of thing."
"Which means?" asked Cho not very sure about this new student. She was weary of anyone that acted so strange but was still interested in what exactly she wanted.
"Nothing bad, I just wanted you all to help me put some fun into this place and I could use my magic to help you with your problems. What do you say?"
"A fey's idea of fun is mean tricks and chaos. Besides, you're not as powerful as you think you are. If you were you wouldn't be here. You're also only half fey, I can tell, even though you very old. You probably existed in some place like Avalon or Remordere before coming here. We should get to class now." Said Luna getting up and going to class. She didn't think she had been rude, she just told it like it was. She didn't notice the stunned silence at the tables followed by yelling.
"I hope you realize this means war!" said Esmeralda as she too got up and went to class muttering about how bitterly unfair life was and how she could possibly know so much. She deiced that this person could in fact be very useful.
