Assassin's Apprentice
Chapter 1: Abandon and Gain
On the morning of November 2, 1981, Petunia Dursley of number 4, Privet Drive, opened her front door to get the milk and newspaper, and saw a bundle of blankets on her doorstep. It was a baby.
She took the baby inside and unwrapped it. She opened the letter that was tucked in the blankets, and read it while keeping an eye on the beautiful baby. He (as it was definitely a he) was small, had black, untidy hair, and an angelic face. As he had yet to open his eyes, she had no clue what color they were.
By the time Petunia had finished reading the letter, she was furious and happy; happy that her freaky good-for-nothing sister Lily and her equally good-for-nothing freaky husband (John, Joseph, whatever his name was) were dead, furious that her sister's spawn wasn't dead and that she ans her normal, hard-working family were expected to take care of and love the little freak.
"Vernon!" Petunia shrieked. Minutes later, a whale of a man thundered down the stairs.
"Yes, Petunia darling? What seems to be the problem?" Vernon asked nicely.
"We are expected to raise my freaky sister's baby freak since she and her husband went and got themselves blown up! That's him over there. I don't want him staying here and contaminating my little Dudders! Take him away! Somewhere, anywhere! as long as he isn't here!" his wife ranted.
"Alright! I'll get the car warmed up, and I'll drive into London and leave him in a back alley. How does that sound, Pet?" Vernon said, trying to placate his ranting wife. When she agreed, Vernon went and started the car. Coming back in, he grabbed 'the freak', threw him in the backseat, and drove to London. After twenty minutes of driving through the back streets of London, Vernon found, what he thought to be, the perfect alley. It looked like no one went there, it was VERY far away from any major roads, and passers-by didn't walk on the streets on either side of it. It was the perfect place to leave the little freak.
He stopped the car, picked the freak up roughly, and dropped him in a doorway halfway down the alley. He then walked out of the alley and left.
Hours later, Alec 'Diamondscar' Asins, a professional assassin who hired out his services for good causes and had never been seen or caught, walked to his side door in a deserted, out-of-the-way alley in London. He was deep in thought when he got to the door, and almost stepped on the bundle of blankets that were on his doorstep. He picked up the blankets and took them into his house. He then opened them up to reveal a baby boy.
"Well, what do we have here? A baby boy? Hmm," Alec pondered. He wondered why someone would abandon such a cute child. He then decided to take the boy in, love him, raise him as his own, and teach him all he knew about his profession.
A/N: PLEASE read and review!!! It would mean so much to a little no one like me, so please (puppy dog pout). Also, I am in need for suggestions for the second chapter of my other story, The Last Elemental, so if you could read the story and the author's note at the bottom, I would really appreciate it. Thanks!
