Author's note: This is one of my stories that I've been working on...I hope that everyone likes it, as well, throughout most of the chapters there'll be lyrics from Within Temptation, all of them go along with the chapters so well.
Disclaimer: I own only Ardere, that's it, Adam belongs to my good friends poofgoesyourface, who allowed me to use the character. Everything else belongs to JKR
Prologue
Waves crashed upon the shores of a deserted beach, the sky above was twinkling with millions upon millions of silver stars, and it was now nighttime and darkness engulfed the world. A full silver moon sat high in the sky, shining down in the middle of the ocean. Silence surrounded the place; it was so serene everything felt so right. But nothing felt right, it didn't feel serene, trouble surrounded the area. The reflection of the moon in the water headed right up on to the beach where a figure sat. It was a female; both her legs were tight up against her chest, with her arms folded knees and she had her head lying on top of her arms. Sadness revealed in her silver eyes. My name is Ardere Paige Summers, I'm 18 years of age, and my life has been a mess ever since I was little.
Nothing felt right for the longest time; I felt so abandoned, so very alone in the world. The only time I felt happy was when I was with my friends, when all of them were alive, or when things went right before in life. Everything changed so much over the years, especially the last year, when everything completely changed for the worst. In away, I felt alone, even though people surrounded me, but no one cared about me. A silent melody began to play throughout my mind, a piano began to play, and it sounded all so clear. In a whisper a voice began to sing.
"Memories, memories, memories."
Slowly, everything came back to me of what happened the prior year, and what happened leading up to the point in time. It all began during the journey home after the sixth year.
