Author's Notes: Written for meira16's First Magic challenge on xoxLewrahxox's Bellatrix Lestrange: The Dark Lord's Most Faithful forum.
" Bellatrix, you are a very naughty girl! How many times must I tell you not to tear your dress?" asked Druella with anger.
"I'm terribly sorry, mother," lied Bellatrix. I don't give a damn about that dress, she thought. I'm glad that I managed to tear it.
After being scolded, Bellatrix decided to climb on her favorite tree. Last night it rained, and she didn't know that if the tree isn't dry she could easily fall. She almost managed to climb on the top of the tree when she saw a strange man, standing in front of her house.
The stranger also saw her, and he began to stare at her with curiosity. Who is this man? I'm sure that he is quite shocked to see a young girl doing such a improper thing, said Bellatrix to herself.
She was distracted by her mother's voice, and she lost her balance. She was very afraid when she began to fall. She didn't want to spend her holiday in her room with her legs broken.
Miraculously, she managed to land on the ground with the grace of a ballerina. I performed my first magic! Daddy will be so proud of me, she thought with happiness.
When she went to the living room, she saw her parents talking with the mysterious man.
"Bellatrix, where have you been? I called you but you didn't respond," said Druella.
"I'm sorry, I didn't hear you," said Bellatrix, avoiding the question.
"Cygnus, your daughter performed her first magic," said the stranger.
I wonder if this man saw me when I used magic. I didn't see him when I landed on the ground, Bellatrix thought.
"Really ? I'm very proud of you, my little warrior," said Cygnus and he kissed her forehead.
"Bellatrix, you are a very bright witch! I performed my first magic when I was 9 years old." said Druella.
Yes, she really is a bright witch. She will be very useful for my cause,said the stranger to himself.
