Chapter two: Potter vs. Malfoy

"Hello Harry." Said a soft voice full of caring and something that sounded a little bit like regret. The beautiful young lady that had walked into the great hall was beaming down at him. Her emerald eyes were glowing behind black thin rimmed glasses that's lenses were very thin unlike Harry's. Her hair was as black as night and even this close up he couldn't see any flaws in her complexion except the tiny lighting bolt scar.
"H-H-Hi." Harry choked out in a voice that didn't sound at all like his own.
"My name is Lindsay." She said to him still smiling broadly to show all of her pearly white teeth. "Lindsay Potter."
"Hello Lindsay." Harry replied a little louder.
"Lindsay!" George cried excitedly. "Look! There is a seat right next to me here and you can sit right across from Harry!"
Lindsay walked quickly over to the seat next to George and smiled at him. He looked at her like she was the only person in the room and sat down motioning for her to sit down next to him. "George, how have you been?"
He looked at her a little crushed as to that fact that's all she said to him. "Well, I've been good me and Fred here made the house team, were beaters. Well Harry over there made the house team his first year, he's seeker now. My little brother and sister Ron and Ginny started here. Percys still as stuck up as always. Oh yes and we have a new defense against dark arts teach you may know. Remus Lupin, very nice I hear."
She looked at him and then asked shyly, "Any girlfriends?" He blushed and smiled at her, "No, no. I've only got one girl on my mind." She blushed an even darker color and smiled then turned to Harry, "Harry you are looking well. Not quite the same baby you were last time you saw me. Well its amazing you look so much like." she trailed off and then turned to Hermione. "Well I have heard great things about you from McGonagall." As it got later and they talked about more useless things that Harry was defiantly not interested in. There was a question burning inside of him that he wanted to ask her so badly but did not want to attract attention to himself as it already was. He wanted to ask her why he hadn't been told about her sooner. "Time to go to return to your rooms. Prefects show the first years to there dormitories. Thank you." They heard Dumbledore say to the large room full of people. As they were walking to the stairs that would lead them to their dormitories Harry heard a very familiar laugh and then the annoying voice of Draco Malfoy. "Oh look if its Potty and his sister! You too look so much alike! Just like your dead father ill bet. And your dead mother? Oh that's right you two don't have the same mother because Krista was one to sleep around eh Lindsay?" She was glaring at him by then, he had hit a soft spot and now it was on. "Listen here little boy, didn't your father teach you to never speak to you elders like that? Oh probably not because your father was a disgrace to the wizarding world and as you will be soon enough, Oh! Didn't think I knew that did you? Do you think I know that your father is one of the foulest sickest creatures that roams this earth?" "Don't you have a go at my father when your father was so gross as to marry a mudblood and sleep with one! Having two brats to mess up the cycle!" "You shut your mouth about my father!" she growled. "You just shut your mouth!" he yelled getting right in her face. She backed up making a disgusted face. "Boy! You need to get some breath mints!" Every one standing around was laughing at this comment just as Draco's hand came down hard on the side of Lindsay's face. Oh now it was on, no turning back now. "YOU DIRTY MALFOY! DIRTY LIKE THE REST!!!" she screamed and tackled him to the ground. There was a loud smack again and everyone was yelling and forming a circle around them as they fought with Lindsay ontop of him pounding in his face and screaming obscene words as she hit him. Harry pushed his way through the crowd and saw Lindsay busting in Malfoys face like a regular muggle would. There was blood everywhere now and Harry assumed it was his not hers because she didn't seem to have a scratch on her. "WHATS GOING ON HERE!" a loud voice boomed down the hallway. Professor McGonagall was running swiftly down the hallway with Snape and Hagrid close at her heals. Hagrid was there in a moment and had peeled Lindsay off malfoy so fast it had seemed as if she had never been moved. Hagrid carried her away from the scene as she kicked and screamed "YOU DIRTY *!@#$%!!! HOW DARE YOU HIT ME!!" Malfoy was laying on the ground whimpering as professor Snape ran to his aid. "HAGRID YOU TAKE HER TO MY OFFICE, NOW!" McGonagall screamed as she broke up the crowed, which had formed. "You can't do that! He hit her first!" George Weasley was yelling. McGonagall just glared at him and said "someone get this boy to the hospital wing!" Then she was gone striding down the hall in pursuit to her office to deal with Lindsay. The door sung open and McGonagall glared at Lindsay as she sat in the chair Hagrid had thrown her in. "WHY?! Lindsay your first day back and you have already gotten into a fight with a boy! A boy none the less! Why? Why? Why? WHY?" "Professor! You don't understand! He was talking about my father! And my mother! Saying mean things! Then he slapped me, I didn't even touch him first, you have to believe me!" "Lindsay Potter how can I believe you? Tell me how and oh I will! You beat him till he was bleeding Lindsay! What was running through your head as you did that? No strike that! I don't want to know you will receive three full weeks of detention only because his hit you first. Now go! Go I can't take this anymore!" Lindsay did say a word to either one of them as she stood from her seat and walked slowly out of the room into the hallway, which was now empty except for the annoying voice of Peeves the Poltergeist who was harassing some first year. Lindsay walked faster until she was sprinting and she didn't really know why she was running. When she reached the portrait of the fat lady she cried "Martcus Zerconis" and walked into the common room.
"Hey! What happened? Did you get expelled?" Fred yelled expectantly as soon as she walked into the room.
"Nope," She replied in a dull voice, "I got three weeks of detention, how bad was it really?" she asked walking over to Harry and their little group that had formed.
"He was bloodied up real bad!" Ron replied.
"Your okay right? He didn't hurt you?" George asked loudly.
"I'll kill him if he did! I swear it! You were right for attacking him no matter what McGonagall says!" Harry interjected which took Lindsay by surprise.
"No, I think I may have a bruise or two but nothing worth getting upset over."
"I was just waiting for someone to knock him out!" Ron cried laughing.
"Well, it was worth the detention, trust me. Just to get one swing in on that Malfoy kid made my day."
"What do you think his father is going to do?" Hermoine asked softly.
Lindsay's eyes burned a hole in the floor at that question as she lifted her head she replied "Whatever Lucious Malfoy feels he must do is out of my control, but I doubt it will affect me in anyway, if so, my mother will have a piece of him. Well I must go clean up and go to bed, I'll see you all tomorrow I bet. Goodnight all." She said standing and leaving the room. As she climbed the spiral staircase to the girl's dormitories she thought about all the things that had happened in the past few days.
"You know," Lindsay heard a girls voice say somewhere to the left of her. "its sad how George Weasley is just so in love with that Potter girl! It's bad enough as it is that he won't pay any attention to any one because he's been waitin on that silly git! All she has to do is flip her hair and he will stare at her for an hour! Now I've flipped my hair nearly a dozen times in front of him and he just looks at me like I'm sick.." the girl who had been talking voice trailed off as she walked away from Lindsay.
She walked into her dormitory where her best friends had yet to arrive. She sat on her bed for a minute then felt the sudden urge to talk to George herself. She jumped off her bed and ran down the spiral staircase as a few girls were coming up just making her more irritated. As she reached the common room she spotted George and Fred sitting with Harry, Ron, Hermione and Ginny. George looked as if he was thinking about something way to important to worry about their silly conversation. Lindsay walked silently over to where they were all sitting and sat down next to George and smiled at him widely.
"What are you up to?" he asked grinning.
"Nothing." She replied simply.
"You have got to be up to no good!"
"I am always up to no good George Weasley!"
"Well that's a given!"
"George, I like you." She whispered then jumped from her seat and ran to the spiral staircase that led to the girl's dormitories.

The next morning Harry fell out of bed and dressed to go to breakfast waiting only a few minutes until Ron was ready to go. They met Hermione in the common room who was waiting for them and talking to Lindsay, Ginny and two pretty girls who looked to be fourth years.
"Hiya Harry!" said one of the two pretty girls. She had long blonde hair and tan skin and a wide smile that showed two rows of pearly white teeth. She must have been close to one of the prettiest girls he had ever seen.
"Hiya." He said rather sheepishly.
"Harry, these are my two best friends, they have been going here while I haven't but they rather keep to them selves. This is Morgan and this is Nikole." Lindsay said motioning first to the blonde then to the brunette.
"Hello." Nikole said to him smiling and turning her head to look for someone, he was not sure of whom yet. She had shoulder length light brown hair and very sharp features that made her even more lovely. All three of them were slim and very shapely.
"Harry," Ron whispered as they walked behind the five girls who were gossiping amongst themselves "how did we ever miss those two?"
"Got me" Harry replied softly.
They walked the rest of the way in silence listening to the girls giggle and go on about something that wasn't very important. When they reached the great hall to eat the room seemed unusually quiet. Lindsay looked a little unnerved by this but continued walking to the Gryffindor table to be seated.
They all sat and started jabbering on about one thing or another whenever the morning owl mail came. A large owl swooped down in front of Hermione and she pulled out the Daily Prophet from its pouch, gave it a nut and it flew off again. Hermione gasped and laid the paper down were a man with a waxy, sunken face stared up at him with a bored expression on his face and long black oily hair that looked as if it had never been brushed. The heading read, SIRUS BLACK STILL ON THE LOOSE.
Before Harry could read the rest he heard Lindsay shriek and run out of the great hall with everyone staring at her. For a moment Harry had thought he saw something funny on her face. He thought he had seen the scar on Lindsay's face, bleeding.
"Did you see that too?" Hermione whispered.
