The Chosen Eight

Prologue

Prophecy of the Chosen

Foretold by R. R.

Documented by G.G., S.S., & H.H.

From age to age,

The Chosen will thrive,

Graced with the power of the Four

But one by one, they will fall

For division will topple all

Then the Dark One will come,

And he will abuse the ancestral blessing

Using it to inspire fear and darkness

When despair reigns over all,

A Light will spring forth,

Out of destruction will come Hope

The High Lord fleetingly shows his might

And the defeated Dark One shall flee

And lie in patient waiting

Peace will hold sway for a time

But it is the calm before the storm

The Dark One shall come again,

More terrifying than ever before

Yet all is not lost,

For united in love and lost,

The Eight will be revealed

Each Lord and Lady of this noble Order

Will each possess contrasting qualities

Respective to the one of the Four

Two will be of noble blood,

With ancestral ties to one of the four,

Two will be of the same blood,

Pure, but poor, but strong of heart

One will be of non-magical stock,

A first generation magical child

One will of blood so pure,

Yet feared non-magical at early age

Still, two will be of half-blood,

With fathers magical, mothers not

Touched by darkness, all will be

But let this stop them, they will not

Head the warning of the hat

United they will conquer all

A/N: Okay, I was thinking about possible storylines for my story Harry Potter and the Past Distraction when this huge plot bunny attacked me. I knew that I couldn't use it in that story but I also knew that I wanted to use some things in that story. Therefore, I decided to take that one down because this idea was so much better, if I pull it off. Hope ya'll like it and review. And yes, the verse isn't very good, but work with me here. Poetry isn't really my thing.
