Prologue
I lay there in the backyard to get as much peace as I can, before Mother comes home. I stare at the clouds making things with my mind. Ever since I was little, well, more little, I felt I was different. Although, having Mother call me a freak doesn't help in the least.
The front door bangs open inside. "Faraya, god damn it, where the hell are you?" Mother is shouting at me again. "I want to give you your birthday present!" Yes, it is my birthday, but I know she didn't buy me a present. Mother had been at the pub all night, drinking.
I sit and wait because I know it's coming. I hear her go around the house. Finally she looks outside. She stomps over to me and screams. "Get in that fucking house now!"
I stand up and say, "Yes, Mother." Before I can leave though, she slaps me across the face. After the slap, Mother passed out. It wasn't the worst thing she has done to me but, for some reason, I started to cry.
The first idea that came to mind was to run away. That's exactly what I will do.
A/N: Sorry for the shortness, but hey, it's a prologue, so, yeah. You may be wondering what this has to do with Harry Potter. You will see soon enough. Oh, and this is in the Marauders Era, if you didn't get the Marauders/OC. :/ Anyway, if you are still with me this far, thank you very much. =D
