Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter or any of the mentioned Characters.

Long story short, a Friend challenged me to try "Write or Die", a site where you set the Word Limit and a time [5 mins, 10 mins, 15 mins, etc], I chose 200 words in 5 mins... and promptly had a 30 second mental blank wherein I wrote the first line.

This is the Story that had been created by the end. Hope it makes some semblence of sense.


Hate the Cradle, Love the Babe

~)0(~

The night was black, as black as the Darkest of Lord's hearts, it was all-consuming and terrifying; but she was enthralled, her every single molecule thrumming, thriving, prospering in this land of darkness, night, evil...

And who could blame her?

It was all she'd ever known, being a child of Purebloods who saw all others as filthy, dirty, twisting her thinking until there was nothing left of her own soul, her own individuality and creative beauty...

So many people did not know this, but, once upon a time in a land and time long distant to the eyes of man and magic, Bellatrix Lestrange was a beautiful, kind, generous child...in other words, a disgrace to her family, and they saw fit to destroy her spirit. She had to be quashed before she 'infected the other children' as her Grandmother had put it, a woman so old, spiteful and full of hate there was barely anything left of her inside apart from that darkness...

She had scared Bellatrix, always...until her eyes were opened to the plight of her people, the purebloods, saw the Muggles and half-breeds for what they were and suddenly praises for her dear grandparent's thinking flooded from her mouth, like hymns in a church choir...

It had been she who was wrong, not her dear family...

The world was full of hate and twisted morals, evil and dark...

And so must she be.


The End.

As I said, in two minutes of 'write like a mad person or lose what you've written' there was not exactly a lot of time for plot development... so I'm rather hoping it makes sense even vaguely.

Hope you liked it.
