Chapter 1: Introduction

When Voldemort was heading to Hogwarts and down to only a couple of horcruxes he decided to find another way to ensure his survival. He placed a little part of his essence in one of his loyal female followers, Viper, with the plan to take over her body when things got dire. What he didn't expect was that by doing this he didn't create another horcrux but he created a new life. This spark of life however needed a destiny to become more than a spark, and this destiny would come a lot later.

Years after Voldemort was destroyed, Harry and Ginny got a baby named James Sirius Potter. James grew up as a happy boy, hearing about the wonders his father and his friend performed when they were younger and went to Hogwarts when he was 11. His time at Hogwarts was wonderful but quite uneventful(aside from the general mischief) until he was in his sixth year. Then he met a young woman that changed his world.

After Voldemort was killed his followers, the Death Eaters were scattered around the earth but did not stop believing in his cause. Small groups started to gather but no real leader stepped in place. Then one day Viper discovered she was pregnant and her snake tattoo started to glow. After a lot of discussions and a lot of black evil magic she and her group of Death Eaters concluded that the child must be of the essence of Voldemort and contacted the Death Eaters around the globe. Viper, being mother of the child, stepped up as the new leader of the Death Eaters. The child was born on a Sunday. A Sunday that was also very important for the Potter family.

Lumina was raised by the Death Eaters like a royal. She got everything she wanted as long as it served some evil purpose. Years went by and she believed fully in the cause that was set by her father, who was murdered by the evil Harry Potter. The Death Eaters started making plans to use Lumina to infiltrate Hogwarts that was now better protected than ever to strike the first blow there. They thought however that the child was not ready at the age of 11 to go to Hogwarts and needed more learning. They used a powerful spell to hide her powers to the outside world until they thought she was ready.

When growing up Lumina discovered a lot of special powers that the other Death Eaters did not seem to process. For starters she could talk to snakes but also to other reptiles. She was however not very handy with a wand and ended up breaking a lot of things when using the wand. However this changed when she was 15. After another failed lesson of trying to levitate thing and a very angry and frustrated mother when things stayed put at the ground, Lumina ran crying to her room. She was so angry that she screamed at the top of her lungs and threw her arms sideways. She felt a surge of power rush through her hand, stronger than anything she had ever felt. When she looked around everything in her room had started to float around. Her mother walked in and concluded that they would practice without a wand in the future.

After this Lumina appeared to be very talented. She could perform all the spells others could only perform with a wand. After some practice she didn't even need to speak out the spell but could just picture what she wanted in her mind. She appeared to become the most powerful Death Eater there was and they decided to put their plan into action. Lumina was sent to an orphanage to make sure there were no ties leading back to the Death Eaters and they lifted the spell that concealed her powers to the outside world.
