A Black Story

A note from ME: This story is about two of my made-up characters, but

also about Draco. So keep that in mind...and yes this title is corny

but it was the best I could do this early in the morning.

In a small plain room, there was two lumpy grey martesses,

two thin navy blue moth-eaten blankets, and two blood-stained

grey pillows. Other than that there was a table and a wardrobe. On

one of the beds on the right side of this cold room, a girl lay

sleeping. She had shoulder-lengh black hair, pale skin, and green-grey

eyes although you couldn't see them. She was also very thin. Across the

room was her twin brother that had the same eyes, the same pale skin,

and the same black hair, although his wasn't nearly as long it was

long for a boy. Though hardly long enough to put it in a ponytail or

whatnot. At the end of his bed, though, there was a giant-like black

dog sleeping. The boys name was Danny. Daniel David Black. His twins

name was Raven Anne Black. And they lived in this shabby tailor, in

which they expected was stolen, with there Uncle.

"Now get up you two little...yous."said a very drunk Uncle

Scarface. He was holding a gun, and shot. The bullet went through

the window breaking the glass and Raven woke with a start.

"Were up, Uncle Scarface." she said. She hated him. HATED.

Although he wasn't too fond of them either. But this was the only

home they had since there parents died. With that their uncle slumped

out of the room. Well, moreover, fell out. Drunk people tend to do that

you may know. Raven looked over at Danny who was wide awake as she was.

"How long till we go back to Hogwarts?" Danny asked. Hopeing,

no, praying it was soon. Living with there uncle was horrible. They

did the work: washed their clothes, in the sink or a creek as Uncle

Scarface didn't have a washer; bought and prepared their own food,

well sometimes they had to steal the food as their uncle didn't

give them enough money to buy a pack of gum; and clean up after their

uncle had gatherings. They didn't want him to be arrested for having

illegal drugs in the house. At least Scarface knew that they were a

witch and wizard and let them go to Kings Cross to get to school. What

if they foster family wouldn't let them? What if they made them get

rid of Mors, the black dog, or Zeppelin, the black owl?

"We leave tomorrow!" replied Raven happily. Zeppelin hooted

in his cage and Mors gave a faithful 'woof' and Danny smiled widely.

"So we better get ready." said Raven pulling out her old trunk that

was under the table. Danny did the same. Danny's trunk had belonged to

their father, Scarface's brother, David Black. Raven's had come from

a second-hand store in Diagon Alley. There mother was a muggle. A very

beautiful one named Anne Lock. She fell in love with David and they

married. Her rich family disowned her when she did. David was, well,

vampire-ish. He wasn't of course! He just looked like Dracula from

the old horror movie. Not to forget he was poor, shabby, and "had

no respect for women, whatsoever." Thats what Mrs. Lock had said

about David, for his mother had died giving birth to him and he had no

sister or female cousin. He did have one cousin though, Sirius Black.

That's how he and his wife died. Aurors thought that they had hidden

Sirius in their house and wanted to check it. They killed David and

Anne when Raven and Danny were only three. They thought that David and

Anne were Death Eaters as well. After they killed them, they knew they

had been wrong. So they told the Minister that they were putting up

a fight and when they tried to calm them down, they tried to kill

the officers, but the spell back-fired. Leaving Raven and Danny to

live with Uncle Peter 'Scarface' Black.

"Yea I suppose so." said Danny. Not that they had much to pack.

Two racing brooms, two blankets, two pillows, and each of their pets.

"We need to go to Diagon Alley, too! Shit I forgot, we need our new

spellbooks and stuff!" He pulled out some Floo Pouder. "Here, you go

first. Take the lists." Raven went shouting 'Diagon Alley' and whizzing

away. Then Danny followed suit.

"Come on, Dan-the-Man! We gotta get to Gringotts!" Raven said.

Their father and father's friends and family left them some money in

vault number 666, their vault. They got some money, there was a nice

amount for two sixteen-year-olds. Then, they bought their spellbooks,

quills, parchment, and ink. They also restocked up on potion

supplies. Then they stopped to get some lunch and returned to the

shabby little trailor park. (yes, sorry, but this trailor does have

a fireplace....if you could call that a fireplace, personally I think

it's more of a confused toilet) They reminded there uncle about

Kings Cross and went to bed early.

"Wake up you two little pains in the ass!" shouted a most

tired, cranky Uncle Scarface. Raven and Danny didn't need telling

twice. They poped up and put there clothes on. Then they were off.
