Chapter Two

By Leya/Alzane

It was an odd sight indeed to see 20 unfamiliar students, adorning robes from 4 different houses, walking together in the hallways. But that was the sight set before the eyes of Lucius Malfoy, the Maurauders, and a few other students as they piled out of classes. Leya and Draco Malfoy were still bickering rather loudly.

"And another thing, Ferret," Leya shouted "My birth- name is older even than yours so shut your mouth with your whole pure-blood pride! I could easily take you on and wipe that smirk off your face." Leya's light blue wings were shimmering as they flapped in anger.
Draco Malfoy smirked. "Ah- but you are no longer a pure-blood. And even if you were, you are adopted by that pathetic half-breed Lupin who doesn't know he's not welcome." Leya's eyes darkened and made to lunge at him only to be held back by Harry Potter and Justin Finch-Fletchley.
"Let me at him! He'll pay for that comment."

The Maurauders had frozen in their footsteps hearing the word Lupin. They looked at each other and then to the scene in front of them. Not only that, but Harry Potter was the striking image of James Potter.
"Prongs, he looks just like you."
"And did he call her Lupin, Moony?"

Sirius looked closely at Leya. She was rather pretty, he admitted, with long black hair flowing below her waist, oval eyes filled with pools of brown, and intricately shaped wings filled with different shades of blue. In fact, he almost looked like James' best friend from Ravenclaw, Rana Rai, except this girl had wings and a sort of glow about her face. They broke out of their thoughts when Leya had broken out of Harry and Justin's grip, stalked over to the Malfoy look-alike, and smacked him hard across the face.

"And feisty!" James grinned.

"Lupin!" he roared. Leya rolled her eyes at his idiocy. Remus, James, and Sirius backed up shocked

"My name ," she said under her breath as she pointed her wand at his throat "is SHARMA." Leya was proud to be a Lupin, but seriously, if people knew, it could change everything. Lucius Malfoy cleared his throat, an evil smirk on his face after getting over is schock of seeing a boy looking almost identical to him. Leya looked up, withdrawing her wand, and glaring daggers at Malfoy Sr. If Leya hated anyone more than Draco Malfoy, other than Voldemort of course, it was Lucius Malfoy.

"A Sharma, eh?" He looked to his fellow Slytherins. "Move aside," he said in a silky voice as he pushed his way forward. She crossed her arms across her chest, glaring at him with pure hate. The Maurauders were shocked. They hated Malfoy, but they had never seen someone look at Malfoy with as much hate as Leya had written across her face. Lucius Malfoy faced Leya and ran a finger down her cheek. Leya pushed it away in disgust. "Such a waste," Malfoy Senior muttered. "A beautiful girl, yet your parents have tainted such an old and powerful bloodline. Too bad." He shook his head sadly. "Well, I'll just have to continue my pursuit of Ms. Rai, then."

"You'll do no such thing!" James Potter scowled. Lucius Malfoy turned to face James in amusement.
"So, it's true then? James Potter has moved on? Pity. She wouldn't date scum like you."
James scowled. "I don't know what you are talking about?" James had stopped his girl-a-week game a year ago

Harry looked on confused. Didn't James like Lily? He had to. How else would he have been born?

Lucius rolled his eyes. "Potter. Any fool could see it. But then I guess you are lower than a fool."

Rana slowly entered the castle after a nice flight and stopped hearing the conversation. She looked around seeing about 20 students she didn't recognize.

"Erm?"
"Oh hello Rai. We were just talking about you."
"What?" She looked around nervously. Malfoy disgusted her. He was always hitting on her. Truth was she'd developed feelings for one of her best friends. James sent a glare at Malfoy before smiling at Rana. He was so obviously in denial.
"Hi Rani."
Rana waved to James. "Erm, did I miss something? I don't recognize half these people…"

Lily's attention was attracted to a girl with fiery red hair down her back. She tilted her head as she looked at the group. That boy as Leya called "Ferret" looked a lot like Lucius and then of course there was the James look alike. There was a dreamy eyed girl with blonde hair that looked like Aurelia Rosa and another boy with a striking resemblance to Frank Longbottom. Of course, who couldn't see the resemblance of the red-haired boy with freckles to Arthur Weasley. She furrowed her eyebrows when Laura Madley shook her head, seeming as Leya and Draco were once again at each other's throats.

"Ok; I hate to break up the party, but could someone point us to the Headmaster's office?"
Terence smiled at Laura. Leya caught that look and quickly looked away, resuming her argument with Malfoy.

Rana sighed, adjusting her badge.
"Yeah, I can take you," she said, preventing Lily from asking questions. It was clear that this girl was in a rush. The group of 20 followed Rana, leaving behind a scene between Malfoy Senior and James Potter, Leya and Draco bickering the entire way.
