It was 9 years ago, The time that fear had replaced hope. The times where if you knew you had something or new something or was a threat of some sort you wouldn't have to worry about tomorrow because you expected to die today. Before you ask, no it wasn't war and it definitely wasn't a murderer, It was the dark lord. No he is not god, he is a wizard. His name was Voldemort but people were so afraid of him that they couldn't even say his name. All people were afraid of him but that didn't stop some people, they created an uprising and those turned out to be his worst enemies, so they were killed. You definitely knew about the Potters and the Longbottoms but what about the Santiagos? Or the Doormans? No? Then let me tell you:
The two families each had a daughter, The doormans' daughter was named Veronika. She had blonde hair and blue eyes and her cheeks were a beautiful shade of light pink. The Santiagos' daughter was named Gemma (the G sounds like a J). She had golden brown hair, chocolate brown eyes, and lips the color of a rose. The two families were best friends and it was nice that their daughters had the same birthday too. The girls were turning three and they were on the couch at the Santiago house. Suddenly the lights turned off. The parents ran over to their children and hugged them and before they got killed by the dark lord they put a magical shield around the children. The spell wasn't as strong as Lily potter's but it did make him weak too. The dark lord looked at the girls. Gemma was always the intelligent one, always knowing exactly what happened even though she was only three, unlike Veronika. It was visible too. She was sitting with a dumb look on her face not understanding why there was someone else in the house, while Gemma was under the table shaking because she knew the man in front of her had just killed her parents. Voldemort wasn't going to let a girl who knew everything out into the world so he erased her memory. Her memory of her parents, tonight, and of course of all magic.
Later on the girls were found and sent to an adoption center far away from london, America. The girls grew up there, They even got an american accent. They were never adopted so they stayed at the orphanage and learned how to clean and do stuff like that. On the girls seventh birthday the orphanage got a letter stating that Veronika has an aunt and uncle who are willing to take care of Gemma and Veronika with their own daughter as well. The girls were excited not because they were going to England but because someone will finally love them, care for them, and they would finally have a normal life. Soon they found out that what they expected was the TOTAL opposite of what they got.
The aunt was named Paulina and the uncle, Jaden. Jaden was abusive verbally and sometimes physically (Not like horrible abusive but like Vernon was to Harry) While Paulina only verbally. They cooked for them cleaned for them and sometimes did their daughter, Paula's homework. Uncle Jaden owned his own restaurant and the girls worked their. they got less than minimum wage. They weren't allowed to eat their food they had to buy their own food as well as clothes. Usually though the girls would take Paula's old clothes but they would have to cut it a little then sew it because Paula was… How do I say it nicely? FAT.
Soon the girls will be turning twelve and thats when the REAL story starts. But, wait, here is the most important/interesting question. where do they live? 5 privet drive
