A/N: Hello! Hoooooooooooola Welcome Back.

Ezani Malfoy is a sixteen year walking contradiction. When she is expelled from Spain's exclusive Witch's Academy for treason, she will start a new life at Hogwarts. Through her journey she will find her purpose, her true love and herself.

Disclaimer: I don't own anything. If I did I that'd be pretty rad, 'cept I'd have screwed it up somehow.

Oh and yeah. I had two chapters before, but I decided to cram the original chapter two into chapter one. I hope I didn't confuse anyone.

The next day was, in short, absolutely awful for Ezani.

To start she had awoken to several young ladies hovering over her bed, all staring at her as if she had the plague. When they noticed she was stirring, they all scurried out of the dormitory. Ezani sat up in her bed, about to call after them, ask their names, and make nice like Severus had asked her to, when she groaned.

And she had good reason to. When she had entered the room last night she hadn't gotten a good look at her surroundings, it was too dark. But now the candles were lit and she could see everything. The entire dormitory was completely plastered, from the floor to the ceiling, in pictures (moving, of course) of muscular, handsome, half naked men. You could hardly see the cold stone wall underneath. Ezani was sure she saw at least twelve pictures of Gilderoy Lockhart and he was a complete fraud who had lost his memory two years prior.

"Not these kind of girls..." Ezani muttered herself. She had been desperately hoping for intelligent dorm mates because, quite frankly, she didn't get along with these kind of girls. The kind of girls that huddled together in tight-knit groups of friends, gossiping about anyone and anything they could, hitching up their skirts far above the line of what was deemed appropriate. These kind of girls would act silly for the boys but, Ezani knew better. She had gone to an exclusive pure-blood school, just for girls. While some of the girls were quite friendly, she had gained plenty experience in dealing with these kind of girls.

Albus's and Severus's advice echoed in her head. Stay out of trouble. Normally, Ezani would give these girl's the good ass-kicking they deserved if they proved to be just as annoying and vicious as Ezani thought they were but, in light of the circumstances, Ezani irritably agreed with herself to stay out of their way.

Ezani turned her attention to her trunk, in which she was surprised at what she saw. Someone had gone and bought her about three or four sets of schoolwork robes and uniforms. All of it was it was all neatly folded on the top of her trunk, and all of it bearing Slytherin's crest. As she put on her undershirt and skirt (which she wore at the appropriate knee-high level) she stared at the Green and Silver tie realizing she had never in her life had she tied a tie and didn't know how to. Of course she never had to. At her old girl's school, they encouraged feminine dress, so they didn't wear ties. Or flat shoes for that matter, she thought gratefully, as she thought of never having to do another Creature Care lesson in heels. However, she tapped her tie with her wand and it tied itself comfortably around her neck.

Ezani looked at herself in the mirror and bit her tongue as she tried to comb out her hair. She was too tall for her age at six feet two and a half inches. She had knobbly knees, too long arms, and was too skinny, which made her look lanky. Her hair naturally hung in loose curls, though Ezani preferred it straight. She also had the same calculating gray eyes as her father and brother. Ezani sometimes wished she had her mother's stunning blue eyes.

She almost had to blink back tears at the thought of her mother. She hadn't asked the night before where she was, and felt a mixture of guilt and home-sickness swell in her chest. Ezani loved her family, even if they never had completely understood Ezani. She even loved Draco, no matter how much of self-centered git he was, and how much she wanted to beat the crap out of him sometimes. For a moment Ezani just hoped that they were alright.

When she came back to Earth, Ezani did a double check to make sure nothing was too revealing. It's not that Ezani was a prude or intent on following the school's rules, in fact she had almost no regard for school rules and she was sure she had set a record for most detentions at her old school, it was just that Ezani thought that whatever was under her clothes was no one else's business. She had a lot of self-respect for herself. As she threw on her robes over her uniform, Ezani just hoped she could make friends equally self-respecting.

As she climbed down the dormitory stairs and entered the stone common room, she could see people standing on tiptoes and craning their necks to get a glimpse of her. She heard their whispers:

"She burned down the whole school!"

"I heard she was the one who let all the Death Eaters in..."

"Apparently, she went to some sort of exclusive pure-blood school..."

"I bet my broomstick she's in the Dark Lord's inner circle!"

Ezani couldn't even begin to see why anybodywould think that Death Eaters would attack a Pure-blood school. This sort of brightened Ezani's mood a little, as the evidence was clearly mounting in her favor. Ezani scurried her way out the invisible stone wall that concealed the passage way to the common room. As she ambled out, she found the spiral staircase leading upwards and climbed it, leading her out of the cold dungeons.

Even though Ezani was a little put off at the sheer size of the school, she could find the big room with a bunch of noise and a ton of food. As she sat down far away from anyone else. More people were trying to get a look at her now. She pretended not to notice. She could see Draco down on the other side of the table. Apparently, his father being in Azkaban didn't bother him much, because he was being his usual boastful self. Ezani was annoyed.

Stupid brat. Can't even worry about the well-being of his own father. She thought to herself

As Ezani ate her eggs, her four other dorm-mates walked toward her. Ah, Crap.

Two rather thick and bulky girls sat down next to her while the other two sat across from her. The one directly across from her was the first to say something.

"Hello!" She said with a fake smile. "My name's Olivia Carrow." Olivia had high cheekbones, a narrow nose, a mousy figure and dark red hair.

"Hi. My name's Eza-" She was cut off.

"Oh, we know who you are." Olivia said, still grinning.

The other girl across from her spoke, "We were wondering, if well maybe, you could tell us what happened?" Olivia glared at this girl. She was obviously trying to deal with Ezani delicately.

Ezani dropped her fork. "Well, you see," Ezani started. "It's not really any of your concern, is it now?"

She could see the annoyed looks on their faces.

Olivia spoke again. "Listen, Malfoy, this isn't your exclusive pure-blood school. You're going to find out that this place is crawling with blood traitors and mudblood scum. Lucky for you, we're willing to help you make the friends you need. The right kind of friends." She sounded angry, but she was obviously trying to keep things friendly, and not attract the teacher's attention.

"I think I can decide for myself who the right kind of friends are." Ezani said darkly.

"Very well then. I'd have thought a Malfoy would be smarter than that." Olivia said standing up with the other three girls. Olivia opened her mouth to say something but closed it and scurried away when they saw Professor Snape walking their way.

"Making friends?" He muttered, as he handed her, her course schedule.

"Sort of." She said.

"Good luck." He said as he walked off, towards the dungeons.

Ezani breathed a sigh of relief when she saw she had double potions with the Gryffindors first. She was good at Potions.

One of the first things Ezani learned in her Potions class is that Severus taught in what Ezani called his 'Nasty Mode'.

His Nasty Mode was something Ezani only ever saw when he was pissed off because she had done something stupid. She was almost a little startled when she realized that everyone else just thought that this was how he normally was.

Ezani had a sneaking suspicion that Severus especially hated this class though and she could see why. There were two boys that sat directly behind Ezani, who looked like they were actually trying to piss of Snape. As Ezani stirred her Draught of Peace, she heard the two boys joking with a boy with dreadlocks. They were both really funny and Ezani had to stifle her laughter.

"Weasley! Jordan! Get back to work!" Snape snapped when he noticed Lee Jordan sniggering.

"Which Weasley?" They said in unison with false innocence.

"Ten points from Gryffindor!" He snapped. "And if either of you open your mouths again, I'll cram rat spleens down your throats."

The two sniggered quietly for the rest of the class period.

After Potions she had Care of Magical Creatures, again with Gryffindors.

As Ezani made her way across the Courtyard, on her way to the grounds (after having to ask Severus for directions at the end of Potions) she heard the all too familiar voice of her brother, Draco, coming from the center of the courtyard.

Ezani only gave him a glance as she moved quickly, not wanting to be late.

"... personally I think it's mudbloods like you..."

Ezani stopped in her tracks. She could ignore her father's prejudices, but there were places Ezani drew the line. And calling someone a mudblood was one of them. Lucius said the word often, but when Draco started hearing it for the first times, Ezani made sure to tell him that id she ever heard him say it, she'd hex him out a window. And he'd never been stupid enough to say it while he knew she was in earshot.

Ezani walked towards Draco, untill she was directly behind him. He was surrounded by a gang of his cronies, and they were apparently arguing with some Gryffindors, one, who by his scar Ezani recognized as Harry Potter. All three were fuming, a bushy-haired girl's face was mixed with fury and blinking back tears.

Just as Draco was starting on the flame-haired boy's money issues, Ezani shoved some of Draco's gang and lowered her head to be level with his.

"What did you just call her?" She hissed audibly into his ear.

Draco jumped and spun around to face her. It took a moment for him to swallow enough courage to say, "It's what she is. Worthless mudblood." He tried to say it fiercely, but his voice quavered the slightest.

"I think you ought to apologize." She said standing straight, narrowing her eyes. She pursed her lips and gave Draco a glare so fierce, that would have made Severus proud. She towered over him by a good four inches.

A crowd had gathered around.

"Apologize? To a mudblood?" Draco sounded disgusted, but Ezani could still hear the fear in his voice. Ezani had the advantage over Draco in that she knew he was afraid of her.

"Do it. Do it or I hex you into next week." She said raising her voice and drawing her wand from her pocket. The crowd was dead silent.

"You wouldn't..." Draco said. He had heard this threat before, when Ezani had heard him say mudblood while they were in Diagon Alley.

"Don't be so sure, Draco. Maybe you haven't noticed but Mummy and Daddy aren't here to stop me." Ezani ignored the twinge of guilt that came up when she realized her father was suffering in Azkaban.

This thought seemed to strike Draco. In a flash he ran for it.

"Petrificus Totalu-" Ezani cried, wand pointed in Draco's direction.

"Expelliarmus!" Severus caught Ezani's wand, bursting through the crowd. He looked furious.

"Move on! Now! Don't you people have to lessons to be at!" He snapped at the crowd.

Ezani tried to walk off, but Severus firmly gripped her arm, and pulled her into a dark corner.

"What part of 'stay invisible and make nice' didn't you understand!" He snapped nastily.

Ezani's stomach dropped. In the spur of the moment she had forgotten all about what she had promised Severus. She was suddenly finding it difficult to meet his fierce gaze, and took staring at her hands, whose wrists she was wringing apprehensively. She was sorely missing Severus's 'Not Nasty' mode.

"I just... I was onl-" She was having trouble putting her reason together.

"You have a class to get to. Just don't do anything else stupid! And meet me in my office tonight. Consider it your detention, for fighting." He snapped at her. He was still angry.

Ezani swallowed. She felt so stupid for not thinking before she acted but she couldn't help but mutter:

"Bet Draco isn't getting detention..." As she stalked towards the grounds.

So this is where I'll leave you my friends! Leave me a review on your thoughts of the story so far! I'll update probably in the next few days.

REVIEW!

Gracias.
