Chapter One:Mother

Katrina dashed to the door, wand in hand, flicking it lazily at the door, muttering a spell.

"Disguisium Revelio Pretentio!"

She beamed when she saw the name.

Bellatrix Raven Lestrange

She threw open the door, hugging her mother in the process. She forgot herself. Young ladies do not hug.

"Mother! You really broke out?"

She looked back and didn't see the aristocratic beautiful woman her mother once was. Instead she saw a woman who looked as if she had been dragged through the mill. Her mother screamed in shock at her embrace and cast a quick Cruciatus Curse, as if it was a reflex.

Katrina screamed when the curse hit her but at the same time she thrived with the pain. She was a masochist, and the pain was both beautiful and ugly.

"Mother! Merlin's beard, contain yourself! Come now. Let's get you fixed up. Then we can go find the Dark Lord. I'm sure you have nothing to disagree with on that?"

She took her mothers silence as acceptance and rushed out. Her mother looking weary, but nodded enthusiastically at the same time.
