Jirachi

Allium awoke on the morn of her second birthday. She carefully got out of her crib and toddled downstairs to the party preparations to see if her parents wanted any help. The party was already set up and she was hungry. Guests were already arriving. She sat on the step, invisible to everyone in the room. Her parents passed her by and headed upstairs. No happy birthday from them then. Soon enough they came back down with her brother Harry. They were cooeing and hugging him telling Harry that he was their perfect little birthday boy. Harry saw her as they came down the stairs and reached out to her. She smiled her lopsided smile at him. Soon Harry was in the midst of the guests as all if them picked him up and complimented him. She was hungry. She took off towards the kitchen, grabbed some bread and ran out again. She started eating the bread immediately and accidently knocked into a stack of presents for her brother. They fell on her Harry who was being photographed with them. He immediately started wailing. It hadn't hurt him but through always being coddled and spoiled he automatically made a fuss. Her parents looked daggers at her. They handed Harry to Uncle Remus who smiled at her and mouthed Happy Birthday."Now, now Allium. That wasn't very nice was it?" Lily said." We should send her to your sister Lily. I mean she's a squib." James said. The fact was Allium had plenty of magic. But it never showed. Lily nodded. Next thing she knew she was in a strangers house with a cupboard for a bedroom. Her supposed aunt and uncle had locked her in there and went back to their little Dudders as they called him. She sighed." I wish I had a family that loves me." She lisped softly. There was a spark and a creature appeared." I am Jirachi. Come with me. I will let you be loved." The creature said. Allium was smart, but she was also to years old. She reached out to Jirachi and light filled her vision. She lay in the tall grass and cried for Jirachi. She was alone and cold. Hungery too." Jirachi... Where did you go?" she lisped and fell into a fitful sleep.
