Disclaimer: I don't own the characters.

This story is going to be three chapters long. It is about the three Black sisters: Bellatrix, Andromeda, and Narcissa. Each chapter will tell how they feel about things.

In this chapter, I guess I wanted to show how Bellatrix really is, but I wanted to make you feel sorry for her too. Section nine was very sad to me. I wanted to make her more than just a Death Eater I guess. And mostly she is angry or haughty or sad in this, but that is emotion.

Chapter One: Bellatrix

1

We are pure, no matter what anyone says. The ancient and noble house of Black will be remembered everywhere.

Everyone has been in the greatest House of all, Slytherin. The most powerful of the four Founders the one who would lead the ambitious, the purest, the best of the best.

Except for that scum. Sirius. How dare he go against us, our tradition, or ancestors! Sirius is in the Mudblood loving House, Gryffindor. He is no better than the Muggles who reside there. They should even be allowed to learn at Hogwarts! Sons and daughters of mud, no better than a Squib. No- they are worse! At least Squibs were born into families of magic. Only those who are pure should be allowed at this school.

Speaking of purebloods, I heard Mother and Father talking about a marriage to Lucius Malfoy. His family is wealthy, powerful, and most importantly, pureblood. The most important quality in a marriage. I couldn't even imagine marrying a Mudblood! The scandal, the disgrace to our family couldn't ever be erased. Even thinking of having a conversation with one of them, let alone spending my whole life with that person gives me chills.

I should be the one matched with Lucius. I am the most beautiful, I am the oldest, and I am the most pure of all my sisters! Although her looks do match his, Narcissa is too young. Andromeda is distant. I should be the one.

Andromeda… something is wrong with her. She is distant, staring off and coming back abruptly when spoken to. She often draws little designs and a name on a paper, but I can never see who it is! If it were a Mudblood… no, that could never happen.

Sirius. I have seen him with three other boys. One is a short, rat-like one who seems to lag behind the others. One boy looks drawn out and worried. I don't know who they are, or what families they come from. I know the last one, James Potter, a pureblood. He has messy black hair, hazel eyes and a good build. At least one person if halfway respectable.

There is also a girl. She is a Mudblood, I am sure. She has red hair and piercing green eyes. I don't trust her. All four boys and the girl are in Cissa's year. I can only hope that she does not acknowledge them in any way. I mean, one of them shouldn't be at Hogwarts, by our standards! When she rightfully should be here, why should she be with them? I should check on her sometime to make sure she is with the right people.

It is true Narcissa is beautiful. She has pale skin, hair like a veela's, and ice blue eyes. But she lacks reason. I believe that she is friends with Sirius. Why on earth would she do that? He betrayed us! I think that Cissa has the ability to become a great witch, if only she would use her power to her advantage! She is friends with Severus Snape! Not great friends, I hope, but still! He is a slimy, ugly git! I know he knows more about the Dark Arts than some of the oldest students! Of course, if you believe the rumors, the Dark Arts could come in handy soon.

People are saying that a Dark Lord is rising. A Dark Lord who hates Mudbloods, one who kills them. I do not know how my parents feel about this Lord, but I think they should agree with Him. The Dark Lord (whoever he is and if he is real) could prize us highly because we are pure. If I were to join him, I would do it willingly. He could put an end to all of this nonsense with Muggles. We would be the only ones, we meaning the pure bloods. The Dark Arts could be very important in the future…

I know what Andromeda has been writing! She is in love with Ted Tonks. Mother and Father don't know… yet. Ted Tonks is a Muggle. A Mudblood. She will ruin our name if this gets out! But of course, once I know something, it somehow stays secret, but gets out. In other words, Mother and Father will find out soon, and they will disown Andromeda. There isn't a possibility that she will be in our family. Once you so much as befriend one of them, you are out. Andromeda is my sister, of course, but what she has been doing is unforgivable. She has gone against us, just like Sirius. She will be punished too.

I hate Narcissa. I HATE HER! She refused to let me tell Mother and Father about Andromeda and Tonks! She nearly cursed me! I slapped her. She is the vilest, the most evil creature in the world! And she IS friends with Sirius! That horrible girl! I swear, I will never talk to her EVER EVER AGAIN! How DARE she do that to me! I am her older sister! I am more important, more powerful than she is! And OF COURSE Mother ADORES her! At least FATHER pays SOME attention to me! BUT ALL THEY DO IS FAWN OVER THE BITCH!

And now she is siding with Andromeda about MUDBLOODS? HOW DARE SHE? HOW DARE SHE?

Of course, the one Mother and Father both love is the one who is hesitant to believe in our ways. The one who might side with that person who shouldn't even be in our family. Of course. And of course, when I believe in everything we have been taught, everything we are supposed to believe in, I get no recognition. None. Of course. I can't wait until they find out and Narcissa is punished for keeping the secret. And for nearly cursing me. I can play up that part more than I should.

88888888

Andromeda is ignoring me. No, wait. I am ignoring her. I am the one who should be mad about. Filthy blood traitor. She will be disowned when they find out, and my parents will find out soon. They won't risk the scandal of a pure blood loving a Mudblood. They are too clean and proper for that. And I will be praised for bringing this to their attention. For once in my life, I will be prized over Narcissa.

999999999

No. NO. NO! This CAN'T be happening! They are thinking about marrying Narcissa to Lucius! They CAN'T do that! It should be me! ME! I can't cry, I can't cry, I can't cry. Don't cry, don't cry. No. No. Why? Why not me! What is so special about Narcissa? What is it? What is it that I don't have? Why can't they love me for once?

It should be me walking down the aisle to meet Lucius in a white gown. It should be me.

Not her. Never her. Why not me?

What is going to happen to me? Who am I going to marry? It can't be a Mudblood, I know that. But there isn't anyone like Lucius. There isn't anyone as powerful, and clever, and- and handsome as him. There isn't anybody. Nobody can replace him, no matter how hard they try! And stupid Narcissa is going to get him.

Why not me?

10101010101010101010

She is actually trying to make me feel better! Nobody can do that. Especially her. She is the one who took away what should have been mine! Narcissa could never make me feel better. Never.

1111111111111111111111

Narcissa is still friends with Sirius! For the holidays, his family came over and he came too. He and Cissy were talking when they thought nobody was there. They were wrong. I have my ways…

He wants Narcissa to go against us too! He says that his friends have taught him that we are wrong and that what we think is wrong. What a liar! How could he think that when he has been brought up like my sisters and I have? And Narcissa! She was actually agreeing with him! How could she be married to Lucius when she thinks like that?

121212121212121212121212

I hate her. I hate her. I hate her. I hate her.

How could she do this to me? How? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why?

She is getting married to him. When she graduates from Hogwarts. It's not fair.

13131313131313131313131313

We are pure, no matter what they say.

I will be the most pure, the best of anyone. I will outshine Narcissa at any chance I can get. I will be pure.

Pure.

How can she think that we are not? How can she stand to marry Lucius when she knows that she thinks differently than him? How can she lie to our parents? How can she face me, knowing she stole away my very future?

How can I not curse her into oblivion every time I look at her? How could she steal away my life like that?

I will be the Dark Lord's dearest follower. I will serve him with my undying love. I will kill all the Mudbloods. I will be powerful. I will be the most loved in our family. I will not let her ruin my life. I will ruin hers. I will forge my destiny. I will be great. I will have beauty. I will marry. I will be loyal. I will learn the Dark Arts. I will do what I have to do to get what I want, no matter what it takes. I will murder if I have to. I will torture if I have to. I will go to Azkaban. I will be me. I will not let Narcissa outshine me. I will shine brighter. I will be known. I will make sure my name is in houses throughout the Wizarding World. I will never fade into the shadows. I will stand out. I will be a leader of the followers. I will be the best of whatever I do. I will never fail. I will never give up. I will never love a Mudblood. I will stick to my beliefs, I will know everything I need.

I will be pure.

Next up is Andromeda.
