Alexa had arrived at Hogwarts. It looked huge for her compared to the small private magic school she was used to, with as little as 150 pupils attending. She was greeted by the headmaster by the front door and was taken to his office, to be sorted, after much dismay of the sorting hat, into Gryffindor. He sure felt she would excel in Slytherin, however, it eventually rested it's decision.
Afterwards, she was left to wander the castle grounds and explore while getting used to everything. It sure is crazy around here she thought to herself, while smiling at the moving staircases. How odd.
She found the great hall, in which the headmaster had told her food was avaliable, and she wandered in. The noise in their was atrocious, nothing compared to what she was used to. There were so many students. Any of of them could be her brother, she had no idea what he looked like or what his personality was, all she knew was his name, Cristian Martinez.
She asked a few students who were younger, and hufflepuff's by the looks of it, and they didn't know. Was she wrong? Was he even in this place? Just then she bumped into someone lightly...
"Oh, I'm sorry."

Ash walked along, staring at his feet. He was getting tired of all the drama and gossip. Why couldn't people just mind their own damn business? He stumbled slightly as he felt someone bump into him. He looked up to see a girl about his age, maybe a bit younger. He smiled as she aplogized, "Oh no, it was my fault. I should've been watching where I was going. I'm Ashton Laurent." He gazed at her curiously, "Are you new here?"

Alexa smiled at the boy. He was the same height as her, and she was just glad it wasn't another young student that she tripped up over or someone who was annoyed at her for doing so.
She gave a weak laugh and lifted her arm up in a shy wave.
"I'm Alexa, Alexa Prince" she said.
"Yeah I am new. It's a bit complicated as to why i'm here really" she said, looking a little dazed.

Ash grinned, "Nice to meet you Alexa." he frowned with confusion, "Why is it complicated?

Alexa just smirked and raised an eyebrow.
"Okay, are you ready for this?" She said taking a deep breath.
"My parents died when I was a year old, and I found out I had a little brother. I snooped through hundreds of files at the care of children agency and it took me years to find his file. I read it and the last notes said he started attending Hogwarts. So, I'm here for him. I don't think he even knows that I exist" She said, it felt like her lungs were about to collapse.

Ash raised his eyebrows in surprise. "Wow, so what's your brother's name? Maybe I know him."

"His name is Cristian Martinez. I'm sick of asking little brats about him" she laughed.

Ash's jaw dropped, "Cristian Martinez? You're his sister?"

Alexa looked at Ash, with a little frown on her face. Why was he so shocked? Was her brother a Hogwarts terrorist?
"Yes, why? Is that a bad thing?" she questioned, turning her frown to a smirk

Ash smiled, "Oh no, it's not. But I defintely know him."

What Ash just said made Alexa jump up one or twice while holding onto Ash's wrists in excitement.
"Really? I had a good feeling about you. Where could I find him! I'm dying to see him!" She grinned.

Ash laughed as Alexa grabbed his wrists and jumped up and down. "Well, aren't we excited?" He shrugged, "I don't know where he is right now. Actually, I've been dying to see him myself. Should we go look for him?"

Alexa nodded. She was grinning like a cheshire cat at the thought of seeing her brother. He had no idea she existed, but it he was anything like her, he'd be happy to know he had a sibling.
"Where the hell shall we start?" she had barely seen any of the castle or it's grounds, so it was lucky she bumped into someone who knew her younger brother.

Ash shrugged, "I honestly don't know. I'd say either the lake, or the library. So, how long did it take for you to track him down?" And aren't you wondering how we know eachother? he asked himself.

Being Part-veela, Alexa could sense love coming from Ashton when he mentioned her brother, however she classed it as no more than friend-love.
"Overall it took me about seven years. Every meeting I had at the place, I would do a distraction and search for files and clues about him. They are so secretive in that place, but I found out that my Parents got murdered too. They never told me, so I found out by snooping. It was made to look like an accident too, so someone thought a hell of a lot about it" she explained.
