Teenagers
Prologue
My name is Lyra Callidora Black. I was born in early May 2007 to Cetus Phineas Black II. and Delphia Valene Prewett. I was sorted into Ravenclaw House on the 1st of September, 2018 and have since proceeded to make my older sister Dorene extremely disappointed.
However, this isn't a story about my family troubles – it isn't really about me at all, and thus I will not be the one telling it. After all, who am I to tell anyone's story? And since this story really belongs to everyone and no one in particular, no one of us will be telling it. After all, who are we to tell anyone's story? However, I could take you there, if you'd like, in a way only Magic knows.
And since we have found ourselves in need of a beginning, wouldn't it be fitting to start with the girl who always had to be everywhere first? Or perhaps the boy who was always second?
We could start anywhere – but perhaps we should begin the moment that it all really came together. And that was, according to all signs, during the Prefects' Meeting of 2021, where Charles Grante was Head Boy and Claire Erwin was Head Girl, and the Prefects surrounding them (including my dear sister) each had something different about it to say.
So without further ado, let us go back to the day that started to form our future. Say your goodbyes solemly, for you won't be hearing from me for a very, very long time.
(28.10.16) A/N: Hey, so this is a re-write of the beginning of this story. I say beginning because there really wasn't much of it to begin with. There was the slight hitch in my plan of writing this story, the hitch being that I didn't really know much of what was going on and and wasn't quite sure on the form either. So now that I've actually somehow structured the story and am working a bit more on what's going to happen, I'm trying again. This doesn't mean I'll be rewriting every word. No, it just means I'll be taking somewhere, adding elsewhere, and somewhere it'll just stay the same as it was before.
Also wanna say that this story has a lot of OCs, but since it's a New-Generation fic I guess that's kinda normal, and this doesn't mean there won't be cannon appearances. And most of these OCs are descended from ancient wizarding families anyway.
Also, this fanfiction was previously named The Tapestry of Black, but since that's what it started as, and has now evolved, I've changed the name to Teenagers. Why? Because teenagers scare the living shit out of me.
So long,
Cheers,
Charlie
