I know It hasn't been that long since I updated.
Oh, and this story isn't written in 1st person, just the prolouge so you can really get inside Lilith's head without me having to put in useless "she thought"'s.
love you all and hope you enjoy!
Chapter 1: Meet the parents… and the Dark Lord
Lilith Black met her parents the day she came home from school, it was just another miserable year, more crap from Louise Hopkins and her band of twerpy followers. More homework that Lilith had no idea how to do, and more failed examinations. Actually the last one was a lie. She failed most of her exams, but excelled in Dark Arts, Transfiguration, Potions and apothecary. But did the Dark lord care how many outstandings you got in your exams? All he cared about was being cunning, recourse fullness and the ability to not buckle under pressure, and she had all of these things down pat.
Narcissa and Draco met Lilith at the Harbour where the school ship dropped off all the International Students, which consisted of Lilith, three seventh years, two fifth years and an extremely scrawny looking third year. It was always so exiting for Lilith, arriving at the Harbour. The students could look out from the ships front, not seeing anything but a dull mist, although it may be summer, and then, out of the mist, a dozen or so figures are seen. Usually three of those figures are there for Lilith, but then she remembered that her Uncle Lucius had been locked up.

It was so exiting, meeting her parents. Her mother had the look of someone who had been extremely beautiful, but Azkaban had changed her, she had sort of staring, dark eyes. But Lilith knew who she was the second she saw her. She had the same pale skin and soft black hair as her. Suddenly, Narcissa spotted her. 'Oh, Lilith!' she said, slightly flushed. 'This is my sister Bellatrix and her husband Rodolphus, they're your…'
'Parents.' Lilith whispered, a tear rolling down her cheek.
Bellatrix turned around, 'Lilith!' she cried. 'Oh, my dear, what a lovely woman you've grown into!' Then she hugged her, Lilith was in her mother's arms. She hadn't remembered being hugged like that before, but it felt so familiar. 'I'm so sorry my dear, I'm so sorry.' She cried.
Lilith hugged her mother back, 'It's OK mum, I missed you.'
She wished her father had had the same reaction, or just showed a sign of love. But he just stood there. 'Lilith.' He nodded his head curtly.
'Father.' she responded, just as coolly.
For weeks after that, Lilith didn't go outside, except at night. Seeing as her parents needed to stay indoors, for safety reasons. She wanted to spend her time with her mother; she'd missed her so much. Lilith had never had a mother, sure her Aunt and Uncle had been great sort of substitute parents, but nothing could ever beat the real thing.

Lilith's story begins a month before school stated. The Dark lord was willing to let her and Draco become death eaters. She couldn't believe it. "Me?" she thought. Sure, she was great at casting spells, and she was brave, and cunning. And sly. But… she just couldn't get her head around it!
Getting her mark was so exiting! And she got to meet the Dark Lord! "He is amazing!" she thought. "Just his views on life! I just… I know that I will never understand why he is so wonderful… he just is."
At the same moment, Lilith and Draco received their first mission.
Still kinda short... huh?
R&R please!
Love Lola.
