Prologue
Part One: Bella
May 2nd 1998
Mother always told Bella never to play with her food. At the time she had thought it was idiotic –Who the bloody hell cares how you eat food? But she understood now, her mother was never talking about food per say, she was talking about victims, because our food are our victims. We play with them; feed them; we give them false hope, and then we eradicate them.
It was ironic because currently she was standing above her sister Narcissa, as she whimpered pathetically on the ground of the Hogwarts Great Hall. The battle was raging on, her lord was fighting with multiple members of the staff and she tried to look on with pride but at the moment a crowd had gathered around her and Narcissa.
"My only son…My boy…My family…Please Trixie," She kept on crying.
Bella smiled and twirled the unfamiliar wand through her hair, "And he will be your last son Cissy,"
"She's your sister!" The Weasley girl yelled, the same girl Narcissa had tried to protect. She glanced at her lord's battle there were so many spells, so bright, many green, they made her eyes water.
"…Your sister and you'll kill her –"The Weasley was speaking again. Bella could sense she was afraid of her, just like the rest of the world and she basked in it.
"Yes! And so what ickle bloody traitor...So what? What has that got to do with anything? What has that got to –"Bella stopped herself from repeating the same line. The memories were starting again. They were flashes of the past that would cloud her vision –there was never emotion attached to it, nor recognition, everything was just a bleak blur. She saw Cissy yelling at her, Cissy being fawned over, Cissy having a child when she had no ability to conceive, Cissy who betrayed her –her own sister –for her prestigious Malfoy family. Then there was her, reading the damned letter from Andy confessing her love for a Mudblood. She had given her sisters everything, crossed rivers for them and they…they wouldn't even apparate over a pond for her.
"I've learned not to trust my sisters," Bella said with a cold smile, and they've learned not to trust me.
"I regret it, blood-traitor…sister…whomever you choose to be," Bellatrix aimed her wand at her sister's heart and Narcissa crouched on her knees, looked down to the ground in shame.
She opened her mouth to speak, "Trixie, I'm –"
"Avada Kedavra."
A/N: This chapter is short…it's a prologue/flashback…kind of. Music suggestions will be on each chapter and personally I think I have wonderful taste. This chapter is un-betaed. It's a trail run and soon I'll go back and edit it –I do that with all of my stories. Critiques are welcomed and reviews…
