Being a witch is hard enough when you have no friends. I am Pandora O'Hara. I was born in America and went to a wizard school there. I was not popular or even liked at my old school. I wasn't smart enough or pretty enough. I was just in the way most of the time. I sighed and I looked at myself in the mirror. I had long black hair that curled at the bottom. It stopped just above the small of my back. I looked at my face. Pouty lips that were a pale shade of pink. My eyes weren't just green but they were an emerald green. My eyes were at times admired but I as a person was not good enough for some of my classmates. I wore glasses that gave me a librarian look. I had always wanted to have a friend but people just didn't like me. Why would this school in England be any different?

I sighed as my father drove me to a train station. I did not talk as we drove. I normally do not talk unless I truly need to. My father understood this and enjoyed the silence that I had given him. But he did enjoy hearing me speak to him. He loved our little chats even if they were few and far between.

We got to King's Cross and we walked through the magical barrier to platform 9 ¾. I grabbed my trunk from my father and made sure that it was given to an attendant to put on the train. I picked up my black cat and turned to my father. "I will see you later daddy." I said sweetly. I always loved my father. I am the biggest daddy's girl. "I'll write you later in the week pumpkin. Show them what us O'Hara's are all about ok?" He said to me and kissed my brow. I nodded and got on the train. My cat Jack was sitting on my shoulder watching the world go by as I walked. We walked from compartment to compartment to find almost all of them full. I finally came to one that only had two people in it. A boy with long blond hair and an attitude that said that I had money and I can get anything I want. The other boy had short black hair and a slightly large nose. It worked well with his face structure. I knocked on the door and opened it to ask. "May I sit with you two?" I asked sweetly. The blonde one smiled and replied. "Of course you can my sweet. You are new to the school correct?" He watched me closely as I sat down next to the darker of the two. "Yes I am. I transferred from the school in America. My name is Pandora O'Hara." I said as I offered my hand to the blonde and the black hair boys. "Lucius Malfoy." "Severus Snape." The black hair boy said. "Severus mmm I like that name. It sounds very noble." I told him and smiled. He just stared at me and went on to reading a newspaper. I saw a picture about somebody called you know who. I blinked a couple of times and giggled to myself.

"What is so funny my dear?" Lucius asked. "This you know who character. He isn't so bad. I thought this guy would be a challenge. I guess I was wrong." I said to him and put Jack in my lap. I pulled his brush out of my pack and started to brush his short hair. "He is the heir to Slytherin." Malfoy harped at me. I just blinked at him and shook my head. "And? Just because you have a famous family member does not make you a great wizard." I said as I brushed Jack's head. He loved the attention. "What would you know about great wizards anyway you American chit." Lucius growled at me. I looked at him and then back to Severus. "Do you truly wish to know dear boy?" I asked and put Jack on the seat next to me. I smiled sweetly at them both and opened my hand. In the palm of my hand a spark appeared and fire started to dance wildly there. The flame started to take the shape of a lion and snarled loudly at the boys. Lucius jumped while Severus just stared at me. "Fear doesn't make you powerful my dear Mr. Malfoy. Magic is most powerful with love. Love and trust." I said and stood up. Jack walked with me as the two of us were leaving the compartment. "It was a pleasure to meet you Severus Snape. I hope we meet again very soon." I said to him and closed the door. Jack and I walked until a little worm of a boy bumped into me. "I am so sorry! I was…" He stopped talking when he looked up to see me. Three other boys came out of nowhere and stared at me. "Well hello. My name is Sirus Black and I would love to help you get back to heaven my darling angel." He said smoothly and kissed my hand. I sighed and grabbed him by his nose. "You are a fowl little dog aren't you." I moved him a little bit and just smiled. "I have no desire to have a foul dog, his flea infested rat and a wolf and deer bothering me. So keep your sexual remarks to yourself." I hissed at him and walked into their compartment. Locking it so no one could come in. They screamed at the door but I just giggled and continued to pet my darling little Jack. Boys were so easy to mess with. They are so easy to make them do all the hard work.

Time went by and we finally got to Hogwarts. I smiled and walked to a carriage that was going to take us to the castle. I climbed in only to see Severus walk up behind me and clime in with me. "Hello again Master Snape. Did you enjoy the show I put up for you?" I asked sweetly waiting on him to answer my question. "It was very good. I liked the part when you called them flea ridden." Severus said in a hushed tone. I smiled and giggled. We didn't talk for the rest of the ride but it was enjoyable enough for me. I peered out of the window to stare up at Hogwarts. This was going to be interesting to say the least.
