Heart Less

Evanna Lestrange never cared. Unlike her sister, she never burst into flames when anyone said something out of line. She never looked back at the judging eyes of her peers and her professors.

She didn't care that people thought she would turn around and kill someone for breathing her way. She wasn't like her mother.

She didn't care that every time something out of the ordinary happened, all fingers first pointed towards her. She wasn't the usual Lestrange-Black offspring.

She had other priorities to attend to.

She had her peculiar powers to hide from the scrutinizing eyes that followed her movements.

She had secrets to conceal from people who pose threat to her very existence.

And her biggest priority: hide her godforsaken feelings for her cousin during the whole seven years she had to spend here.

But her priorities changed when Cedric Diggory went ahead and got himself killed. If not for her sister's affinity for the Hufflepuff, she would have stood there frozen in shock like all other onlookers while he laid there dead.

For her, it would have been the death of another innocent caught in crossfire. Letting him die would have added up to her never-ending list of regrets.

But Severus Snape wasn't thinking when he called her up. Neither was she to be honest.

She wasn't thinking when she disclosed to the world her biggest secret. She wasn't thinking of the consequences it would bring to her and her brothers and sisters.

But the mistake was made.

Everyone knew.

She could no longer back out.

Her actions on the other hand fueled a fiery response from the crowd.

Questions were asked, questions that Dumbledore could not answer.

How did she do that?
What gave her ability to do that?
What did she do to the boy?

Now, with her bloody secret out and rumours of her mother planning to escape from Azkaban, Evanna has to survive these great few years until she can finally call the shots.

Or so she thinks.
