~Emerald Series~

The house of Number 4 Private Drive, Surry, London, was considered a very normally place

The house was a large 3 bedroom place, with a front law, large back garden, garage, conservatory, spacious living room, kitchen, dining room and 2 bathrooms.

The people that lived there, The Dursley's, were also considered normal. Vernon Dursley a large beefy man with barely any neck worked for a company called Grunnings which sold drills. His wife Petunia Dursley was a stick horse like woman with a long neck; she always had tea parties and the like. Their son Dudley Dursley was exactly like his father, beefy and hardly any neck.

Yes the Dursley family was a perfectly normal family

Bar one person

Harry James Potter. The small boy was left on their doorstep about 5 years ago, his parents having died in a terrible car accident. He was scrawny and unnaturally thin, his raven hair was always like a rat's nest and he was very skittish. But his most eye-catching feature was his brilliant Emerald eyes

They shone with power and intelligence but were hidden by ugly black rounded glasses.

Most people never questioned his scruffy state, and tended to avoid him at all costs. After all it was rumoured that he was a delinquent. And none doubt the words of the well respected family.

When Harry went to school with bruises on his arms – none asked questions just assumed he had been in a fight

When he was missing for several weeks – no one cared to ask after him, after all he was a delinquent and probably in Juvi even though he was only 5

When he was limping down the street pain evident on his face – none stopped to help, after all he dangerous and a liar and therefore must be faking it

When he passes out in school – nobody bothers to find out why, he is just a stupid boy with an attitude problem after all

When screams and pleas could be heard from No 4 – none question or even thinks about it – after all Harry is a bully and is probably fight with Dudley

Yes none care about the small child living a life of fear and pain simply because:

None looked behind the lies

None cared about the small child being slowly broken by his own family

None cared about the Shattered Emerald
