My name is Celestrial Elizabeth Malfoy; I am eighteen years old and am a full blooded witch, as I am told. I lived with my father Alden Salomon Malfoy, my mother died a year after I was born, so I never knew Salina Jessica Lamington Malfoy. After my mother died my grandmother, Abigail Sarah Lamington, moved in and took care of me. My father works for the Ministry of Magic and is an ex-auror. The minister forced him to retire to a "desk job," as he calls it, because it was believed that he a loyal deatheater in the Dark Lord ranks. Three months before my eleventh birthday grandmother died and with my father under suspicion, I was sent to live with my distant relatives till he could sort things out.
Cousin Draco was horrible to me. He had told me countless times that I do nothing, but bring shame to the Malfoy family line. Not only do I not act like a Malfoy, but I do not look like one. Malfoys are blond haired, gray or blue eyed, act like royalty, and the are loyal and most the trusted followers of Vodermort. I have dark brown hair, deep chocolate brown eyes, I act like a "commoner," as Draco puts it, and I do not support the Dark Lord or his ways. I would gladly change my last name before turning to the dark side.
My Uncle, Lucius Malfoy, believes that I am an odd relative indeed, but brushed it off as a result of poor up brining, on my grandmother's part, and that I would grow out of it once I grow up with Draco and his family for a few years. A week after my eleventh birthday, it has now been three months, still found me at the Malfoy Manor under Lucius' care. I was still the oddball of their family, but Uncle Lucius still believes I will grow out of it. It was then that I got the letter.
Dear Miss Malfoy,
We are pleased to announce that you
Have been accepted to Hogwarts
School of Witchcraft and Wizardry…
Uncle Lucius then began telling me the great importance that I should get into Slytherin, he then began telling me everything about the school and why it was important for me to get into Slytherin. "Every Malfoy has been in Slytherin for countless generations." He stated proudly. I just raised my eyebrows at him and nodded, excusing myself and saying I need to write a letter to my father. The following week Lucius took us to Diagon Alley, my father's apology about being busy at work was in his return letter, he smiled at me and got things my cousin and I would need for school. "You are not suppose to have one yet, but I'll buy it for you anyway." He claimed and walked into the Quidditch Supply store. Draco and I looked at each other and looked back at the closed door. Uncle Lucius returned with a broom in his hand. A Nimbus Extreme, the latest model. Draco grinned at me, "We'll see if Professor Snape could bend the rules about first years not being on the house teams, like McGonagall did for Potter my first year." I gave him a genuine smile. Quidditch has been one of my favorite sport after I moved to the Manor and Draco started teaching me. "You'll make a grand chaser, better than the ones we have now!" He exclaimed. Several weeks have now passed and now I am on the Hogwarts Express on my way to begin my academic year at Hogwarts and my future. Little did I know that this would be the first of many adventures ahead of me?
There how was that? Please review! It's my first story, so if you don't mind please review or even flame, I need to find out if I should continue or if I should quit while I was ahead. Thank you!
