A young, teenage girl sat in the midst of her dim living room. The distant cackle of a woman could be heard in the distance, but it was drifting towards the small home in which the girl sat in. There was another young girl, although a bit older, standing by the door, watching out of the window by the front door. Soon enough, footsteps could be heard clunking along the cobblestone path leading to the doorsteps. "Mum!" The eldest sister exclaimed, clearly happy to see her mother, "Oh how was it! How was it!" The older woman smiled at the girl, soft wrinkles lining her facial features. There were streaks of grey in the mother's hair as well, and she looked sickeningly pale, but she was relatively young for the most part. "Wonderful, simply wonderful my dear Stella!" She responded to her daughter enthusiastically, but the younger sister only cast a glare at their turned backs. "Oh yes mother, what innocent lives did you take tonight?" The unnamed girl thought to herself, rolling her eyes as she turned back to the fireplace that sat in the middle of the living room. "Girls, I want you to choose tonight," The mother began again, but was soon interrupted by her eldest daughter. " Mother you know what my answer is! Yes! I would love to join the Death Eaters!" Stella's mother shot a glare at her for interrupting, but her expression softened into a small smile, "Yes of course dear, and Piper? What about you?"

"No," Piper said with a shaking voice.

"What?"

"I said no."

"Piper I'm going to tell you what I did tonight."

"I already know what you did. You slaughtered innocent people."

"Oh no. No no no. This man, he was not innocent. About one month ago, your father was killed by an Auror. You know this already. But do you know who that person was?"

"No."

"He was a blood-traitor. A pureblood. He killed your father. A pureblood killing another pureblood."

"The Auror entered our house with a warrant to arrest dad. If dad hadn't decided to be stupid and fight back, he'd be in Azkaban. Not dead, but still alive."

"Piper how dare you call your father stupid!"

"HE WAS A MURDERER JUST LIKE YOU!"

"YOU'RE A FILTHY BLOOD-TRAITOR IS WHAT YOU ARE!"

"You act like that word offends me, it doesn't bother me in the slightest."

"Piper, I was snooping around the Auror's house. His whole family is full of Auror's. His mom and dad, his two brothers want to become Aurors. He was only three years out of Hogwarts and at the top of the Auror ranks."

"I don't care. You murdered someone, it's illegal."

"His name was Aaron Lysander."

"Ly-sander?"

"Yes. I know you hang out with their youngest sons. Shame shame. Crucio."

Echoing screams and horrid laughter filled every crevice of the shabby home. Stella was nowhere to be found, but if they had looked, she was sitting in her room, trying to block out the arguing and the mangled screams of her writhing sister.
