This story is slightly AU. Remember when Ron left Harry and Hermione? I'll start the story there. I'm sorry if there are a lot of holes in the following fic, I'll try to link this AU story with the book's past. And, one more thing, there's NO SLASH involved. (yes, Draco Malfoy will be in the story too, with quite a role)
Disclaimer: I do not own anything/anyone from the Harry Potter Universe, from Bertie Blots' Every Flavour Beans to Ron Weasley, except for some characters that never existed in the book series (I may drop a couple into the story).

Prologue
A cloak of the blackest black, a flash of flaming red hair, and piercing cold blue eyes were seen. The man walked slowly but swiftly down the deserted road, and his cloak swept the dusty floor. He reached the house of his victim, and knocked on the door.
The door slowly opened and an old man with an almost-bald head and a protruding belly was seen at the gap. His face was filling with shock and the tiniest flash of recognition was seen in his eyes. The cloaked man did not wait for any response from the old man and in a second, he waved his wand, but no sound came out. The old man's hands came to his throat instinctively, and he seemed to be choking. The cloaked one did not waver and immediately closed the door with a flick of his wand.
As he walked away, without ensuring his target was dead, what he did not hear was the old man on the floor whispering the words, "Ronald Weasley".

Author's Note: I'm sorry this is so short, but it's only an prologue, and I didn't want to give too much information about the story. It's like a sneak peak. I do not know whether I could complete this fic, or abandon it, bc it's quite a huge one and I'm new to writing. I've only done really short fics before. So hopefully I get ideas and I don't give up, and complete this story. The next chapter will be up in quite a few days, I'm having a mental block. Sorry! Title may be changed too.
