Chapter 1

The life of Dobby

"Dobby!" Came the gruff voice of Lucius Malfoy, "come!"

A small skinny dirty elf came from the silver rimmed doorway, dragging his feet along as he walked.

The elf named Dobby slowly looked upwards at his master.

"How DARE you rest and not do your duties!" shouted Lucius, before beating Dobby with his long black, silver topped cane. Dobby's green tennis ball eyes filled with tears. He was only clearing out his secret room underneath the floorboards where he sometimes snuck off to sleep in.

"Carry on with your work" grunted Lucius.

Dobby limped away rubbing his saw behind as he walked. He walked into a massive dark room with a long black wooden table in the middle of the room. A golden chandelier hung above the table, making the table seem smaller than it actually was. Dobby has to polish the chandelier several times until pristine, was Dobby's orders, it was going to take him all night.
