Hello! New story so this is just the prologue and the main story will begin in the next chapter. The Minister of Magic is called Harold which I think was right for this time period which is by the way Talyra is the same age as James and Lily! I might write the next one tomorrow but that depends if I get any reviews! Enjoy!

The woman dressed in rags watched as the ministry folk and dementors searched for her. They will never find me she thought as she continued to hurry down the road taking a large sip of the grey polyjuice potion she had brewed last month to restore her ancient disguise. She should have been well hidden enough not to be sighted and been able to hide her disguise, but little did she know one of the aurors involved in the search party had watched her taking the potion,

"Seize her!" he cried and pointed towards the woman who stared at him in shock, "It is her I saw her taking polyjuice potion," he announced proudly, pointing at the woman excitedly,

"Be less hasty kid, you're new to this job," the leader of the party grabbed the him by the throat and muttered into his ear, " It could just be an old woman and if it is and you are wrong about this then this is the last search party you shall ever be on and you shall spend the remainder of your life caring for this old witch who has probably served her time well and deserves to be left alone-"

"But I know what I saw!" he blurted out, struggling to be freed from the wizard's grip, "Please at least check if this is her!"

Let us see is you are right,"

said the older man reluctantly and freed the young auror from his grip leaving him on the floor gasping for breath, he approached the woman and very slowly explained that they just wanted to check one little thing and then they would be on their way. She tried to run but she was held on the spot by two of the aurors as he brushed his wand across her face saying a long spell. To his horror there standing before them is their villain whom they had been tracking down for no less than five years

"No!" she cried out, struggling against the people surrounding her all with their wands raised high, "You shall never stop me I shall get my revenge,"

she shouted as she was forced into shackles and surrounded by dementors,

"I am sorry my dear," the head auror spoke softly and walked slowly towards the evil criminal he had been chasing for five and a half years, "Finally I have found you after all this time," he continued to walk and she made a furious attempt to get to her wand and screamed,

"Avada Kedavra!" in many directions sending green flames out of her wand.

"Crucio!" She failed to hit anybody but continued to scream and brandish her wand,

"Imperio! Imperio! Imperio!" by now she was crying her eyes out and down on her knees in the rainstorm,

"I can't go to Azkaban please let me stay I will never bother you again and your children will all be left alone-"

"I am afraid my dear that we cannot take that risk because it is too late-"

"Stop calling me that! You will pay for what you have done!"

"I have done nothing but protect people from you and it is you who is paying for what you have done. Goodbye Icendria and may your torturous arms never hurt a person magic or muggle again,"

The officials all pointed their wands towards the woman and stopped her from being able to move so that they could take her to Azkaban where she would spend her life sentence.

Three days later...

The minister of magic walked into the room looking grave. He sat down at his post and began to speak. "Her name is Icendria and she is one of the most cruel wizards there ever was; she was a brutal torturer," the minister told them,

"Muggles or magic folk?" one person asked,

"Both, I am afraid. But she shall claim no more innocent lives as now she is locked up and shall never get out."

"It is okay now Harold," his secretary told him, "Now you have caught her and no others shall die like your Sylvie and Alicia,"

"But Sylvie and I were so young and Alicia was only one," he started to cry over the loss of his wife and child to this villain.

"She is to be forgotten about now," he told the people at the meeting trying to be brave, "She is Azkaban's problem now,"

"I should have known,"

she muttered as she paced around her tiny desolate cell in the very bottom of the prison, hands still in chains. I wish I had been more careful and then I could go back and find him to tell him that I am ready to be good and we could have a family together but - am I really ready to be good? Or is this where I was destined to end up. She continued to mutter to herself until she fell asleep in chains being careful not to lie on her swollen stomach.

Nine months later...

"It's a girl,"the doctor announced as he held the red, screaming creature in his arms. He washed the baby and then handed her to the nurse before leaving the room immediately,

"She is yours Icendria," said the nurse as she wrapped the baby in a cloth, "But Azkaban is no place for a child," she did not at first hand the baby to Icendria but instead kept the infant in her hands, cradling it until it stopped crying,

"Could I hold her? Just for a second." she asked and the nurse almost saw a sign of compassion on the woman's face, she reluctantly handed the baby to Icendria and saw her smile as she gazed into its baby blue eyes. For the first time ever in Icendria's life she felt like she had something to live for, to be good for, but soon after she was given the baby and it had drifted into a deep sleep, a woman with orange hair picked it up from her.

"What are you doing?" Icendria spat as she stared at the woman who had just taken away her only child, "I know what you are thinking so just take her I never want to see the thing again." she turned her eyes away from the child and stared at the floor. The woman, who was a family advisor, had been sent to take the child away,

"I am truly sorry Icendria but it is just the law and seeing as you are serving a life sentence I very much doubt you shall ever see your daughter again. She is being sent to your closest of kin - She will never know you and that I am afraid to say is for the best and it is what should be done so she shall go and live with your sister, Klenciana."

"Just so you know Icendria this changes nothing about your sentence, you shall still remain here for your entire life,"

"You don't think that I know that already? I have been here for nine months and I shall not be able to survive much longer. I am ill, I am sick, I am dying and none of you care because you all want me dead," and with that said she did something she had not done for many years. She cried.

Pretending to ignore her, The families advisor said,

"You can choose a name for your daughter if you wish," with that single comment Icendria broke down into tears and the nurse who had previously left the room came up to her and whispered,

"This is the only thing you can do for your daughter, don't waste it,"

"Talyra," weeped Icendria,

"An interesting choice for name... now you shall be escorted back to your cell-" with that she turned her back and walked out of the cell,

"Why must she stay with her when she could live a normal life by being adopted by a family who love her as one of their own?" blurted out Icendria through her tears,

"Oh Icendria," replied the family advisor, turning her head from the doorway to look at her, " Talyra cannot have a normal life or ever be loved by any family for one reason," she laughed,

"And what is that?" Icendria questioned

"You are her mother,"
