Chapter 2

Brianna woke up the next morning to yelling down stairs and pecking on her window. She opened the window and a black very beautiful owl landed on her desk.

"Oh you're a pretty thing." she told it before taking the letter and giving it a treat. It didn't leave so she assumed it was waiting for a reply. Opening it her heart soared. It was from her aunt.

My dearest Niece,

I am over joyed to learn you are still alive. We were lead to believe you died years ago. Your mother was crushed when she heard this. I'll be writing her next in Azkaban to let her know the good news. At this moment we are working with the Minister of Magic to have you taken away from the muggles and placed into our care as you should have been years ago. Dumbledore should have never taken you to live with muggles. He's nothing but a meddling old idiot who thinks he's Merlin.

Your Uncle says to tell you hello and he cannot wait to meet you. Your cousin Draco is looking forward to it as well as am I. I promise you we will be coming to pick you up soon and you will be going to Hogwarts with Draco where you should have been all this time. Due to the school you were going to that starts a year later than Hogwarts you will be a year older than your class I hope that doesn't bother you.

As for your mother she and I were very close growing up. She is very powerful and most people feared her with good reason. She is also very beautiful and a perfect example of a pureblood witch. She will be furious when she learns her beloved daughter was raised by muggles but no matter we will rectify that soon enough. She loved you dearly as did your father. I cannot in a letter tell you who your father is but it was not her husband. I promise to explain everything when we have you safe and sound.

Keep your head up and look for us soon. I have included a necklace that your mother and father gave you when you were born. It has magically value that I will explain later on as well.

Write back that you are ok. The owl will wait.

Your Aunt Cissa.

Brianna looked down at the necklace and smiled. It was of a snake curled to create the letter B.

"Very pretty Young Mistressss." Nyx said from her tank.

"Yes it isss." Bree hissed back.

She wrote a reply and thanked them for the letter and send it off with the owl. She showered and dressed and put on the necklace that gave her a warm loved feeling and hide it under her shirt. Loved what that must be like she thought to herself.

"GIRL GET YOUR ASS DOWN HERE NOW." her adopted father yelled.

"Great now what." she whispered to herself running down the stairs into the kitchen. Her parents were sitting at the table eating a full breakfast of bacon, eggs and sausage and toast. The smell made her stomach growl but she knew all they would give her was plain toast if she was lucky.

"Eat now you have chores to do." her mother said throwing her a slice of toast. She ate it quickly and ran upstairs to start cleaning the bathrooms.

She hated summer vacation. Even though her school days weren't very good either at least she wasn't a slave at school. She hoped the Malfoy's would come get her soon so she didn't have to spend the whole summer being treated like shit by muggles who don't deserve to live.

She spent hours cleaning while her father was at work and her mother on the phone like everyday. At lunch she was given a barley warm soup and sent back to work. She was outside when her father pulled up and slammed open the door. She knew he would go straight to drinking his beer and watching TV.

At dinner she cooked and served her parents in the living room. She snuck some food quickly then cleaned the kitchen. While she was at the sink her father came up behind her and grabbed her upper arms hard. She would have bruises later. She could feel his hot beer stained breath on her neck.

"Your turning into a hot little thing aren't you bitch." he slurred and she squirmed trying to get free he just grabbed her harder.

"One day you'll be my little toy to play with mark my words." he told her kissing her neck.

"Let go of me." she said through gritted teeth.

"Don't talk back to me girl." he said digging his nail in her upper arms making them bleed. She took her head and slammed it back into his face. She heard his nose break as he hollered in pain letting her go holding his bleeding nose.

"Don't ever put your filthy hands on me again." she yelled at him backing towards the kitchen door. Her mother came in and went to her husband.

"What did you do." she yelled.

"Got his nasty hands off me. The dirty pervert." She yelled back at her mother.

"Always lying you are. You should be thanking him for taking care of you." her adopted mother yelled grabbing a towel holding it to her husbands nose to stop the bleeding.

"I'll get you for this you little freak." her father spat at her.

"and you'll get what's coming to you one day." Brianna spat back feeling murderous leaving the kitchen.

She was almost to the stairs when the doorbell rang. She ran to the door before her parents could get out of the kitchen. Her father was still yelling in pain about his broken nose.

She flung open the door and gasped. Standing there were two obviously magic people. The man was tall and proud with long blonde hair and a cane dressed in the finest robes money could buy and the greyest eyes she had ever seen. The women dressed just as nice had blonde and brown hair with blue eyes also rather tall. They were beautiful.

"Can I help you." she ask over the yelling coming for the kitchen which she could tell they heard. The women was looking at her with her hand covering her mouth and tears in her eyes while the man was looking at the bruises and blood on her arms with anger in his eyes.

"Brianna. Oh honey you are so beautiful just like your mother." the women said and Brianna put two and two together.

"Aunt Narcissa." she ask and the women nodded opening her arms for Brianna. Brianna walked forwards and hugged her aunt tight tears running down her face.

"You can call me Aunt Cissa oh honey I'm so glad to finally see you again." she cried pulling back to look at Brianna's face. Brianna was tall as well with long thick dark brown hair almost black that feel down her back. Her eyes were what people called hazel. Brownish gold and green. Her body was thin and her facial features were perfect.

"I'm glad too." she said before turning towards the man.

"Honey this is my husband your Uncle Lucius." Narcissa told her. He hugged her too then pulled back to look at her arms.

"Brianna what happened to your arms." he ask pulling up both sleeves to see better. Narcissa looked too and gasped.

"Oh nothing just a normal fight with the muggles." Brianna told them.

"They did this." Narcissa ask in horror as she pulled out her wand and healed both arms.

"My adopted father did just moments ago. That's him you hear yelling in pain from his broken nose I gave him." she told them. Lucius raised an amused eye brow at her before going into the house with the two women following.

They stopped in front of the kitchen door and saw a man sitting on the kitchen table where his wife was splinting his nose. He was cursing and threating harm to Brianna for hurting him. Lucius Cleared his throat and the two adults turned to look at him eyes wide when they took in his appearance. He was rather intimidating.

"Who the fuck are you." the man said standing up from the table swaying a little from being intoxicated.

"I sir am Lucius Malfoy this is my wife Narcissa and we are here to take Brianna home with us." he stated in an aristocratic drawl looking down his nose at the muggles.

"You can't take her anywhere. She is our daughter." the man said and Brianna snorted rolling her eyes.

"Keep your mouth shut girl." the man hissed stepping towards her. Lucius took a step to the side standing in front of Brianna.

"Sir my wife and I are blood relatives of this child and have the legal right to take her. Here is a copy of both muggle and magical law giving us custody. We are taking her as soon as she packs her belongings." he stated showing them both the paperwork.

"Cissa darling take Brianna to pack her things so we can leave." he turned towards his wife who nodded sending a death glare to the muggles.

Brianna lead her Aunt up the stairs into a small room with little furniture. Narcissa wrinkled her nose at the room and pulled out her wand.

"Tell me what you want to pack." she ask. Brianna pulled out her truck from the closet and set in on her bed. Then told her Aunt everything that was hers which wasn't much but some clothes that Narcissa said they would burn later and get her new clothes and some books and other school things and her wand which she put in her pocket. Narcissa packed with magic then shrank her snakes tank after Brianna took the snake out and wrapped it around her neck. She shrunk the trunk and placed everything in her pocket.

"She's a beautiful snake Brianna." Narcissa said petting the black snake that was protectively wrapped around her niece.

She gasped when Brianna talked to the snake.

"Nyx said to tell you thank you for the complement and she extends one to you as well and you can call me Bree if you'd like." she told her aunt.

"Bree you can talk to snakes." she ask.

"Yes that's why I started researching who I could be because Mud Bloods cannot talk to snakes. Nyx found me a few months back." she told her aunt as they walked towards the stairs.

"That's a rare gift that I believe you got from your father." she told her niece as they made there way back to Lucius.

"What's a rare gift." he ask looking at the two girls.

"Talking to snakes." Brianna said shrugging as she petted Nyx. Lucius's eye's nearly bugged out of his head for a second before composing himself.

"It is very rare indeed and something to be proud of." he told her and she nodded to him she could tell he was not lying. She had the ability to tell if anyone was lying to her.

"We will be leaving now." Lucius told the Muggles who where still standing in the kitchen looking quite put out. They turned to leave when the man grabbed onto Brianna's arm.

"Your not going anywhere. You belong to me." he said and she tried snatching her arm out of his hand. Both Lucius and Narcissa pulled there wands out on the man and advanced.

"Let go." Brianna hissed as Nyx tried to bit the man.

"Get your filthy hands off her." Narcissa yelled sending a mean Crucio at him causing him to fall to the ground in pain. Lucius pulled Brianna back behind him watching as his wife tortured the muggle. This was not something she normally would do. She didn't hold it long not wanting to cause real damage just scare him. His wife was shrieking for them to leave.

"You will never touch her again and be warned you will get what's coming to you one day." Lucius hissed out as he pulled both women out the door.

They walked towards the end of the road before stopping.

"Come child grab hold of my arm will apperate from here." Lucius said holding out his hand.

"You know I can apperate already but no one knows that yet." she smiled and he smiled back.

"You are far advanced for your age. I wouldn't expect anything else with who your parents are." he told her.

"Who is my father." she ask tighten her hold on his arm and on her snake. He looked at her for a moment before answering.

"Brianna your must not tell anyone this there is only a few people that know the truth but your mother as you know is Bellatrix LeStrange and your father is…..The dark lord." he said and she gasped wide eyed just as they apperated away.
