AN: A one-shot on Bellatrix. I was thinking of making this kind of thing into a series, where I explain why characters are the way they have become. PM me or review to let me know what you think!
When she was just a girl, a distant cousin pushed her down, beat her up, and left her bloody and bruised.
"It was just a game; I was just playing."
Oh, how quickly guilt was absolved! There was nothing wrong!
She began to laugh.

Years later, she was given a new game.
Sure, she saw the tears, heard the howls and shrieks.
"It's just a game."
She laughs, but this laugh has no soul.
Review?
