The Broken Lily

Chapter two- The Letter

Tears cascaded down Lily's face as her father hit her. She didn't cry out though, she wouldn't let herself do that. Her father was mad at her, once again. He said that since she was there she had cost him his job. How that was true she had no idea, but she believed him just the same.

"You bitch! You cost me my job!" Franky screamed at the huddled figure in the corner of the room. His fist lashing out again.

Bright green eyes looked up at him. "I.. I'm sorry... I didn't mean to." She whimpered pathetically as she tried to block the blows. It was no use though. There was no point in trying, he would always win. She would always end up on her knees in front of him...

Lily woke the next morning in pain to say the least. She heart everywhere, her toes even hurt. Her father had really gone all out on her the night before. She couldn't stand it. What had she done to cause her family so much pain? She didn't understand it how could she have done anything at all when she had been with Kita and Raven all the day before?

It didn't matter though, the deed was done, and she was left in her room. Hopefully Kita and Raven would come get her while her parents and sister were out. They did everyday. Though today was special an owl was sitting on her window sill.

Raven banged on the door, at least lily thought it was Raven. No one else banged like that. Holding back tears as she tried to get up the door burst open on its own accord, emitting a very pissed looking Raven and Kita.

"Lily!" Kita yelled as their eyes finally found there way to the small girl lying under her window blood pooled around her. "That sick bastard."

"Damn he really went all out on you last night huh?" Raven asked as she shrugged off her back pack getting a modified first aid kit out of her bad. Both stopped though as the own above Lily screeched.

Kita was the first to react. "OMG!" She squealed as she took the letter away from the brown barn owl letting it fly out the window.

Raven shook her head grabbing the letter out of Kita's hands. "This can wait. We have to get Lily back to my house. My rents are out and bro's doing service all month so its all clear." Raven helped Lily to her feet carrying most of her wait. She most likely had a sprained ankle from this last beating.

Back at Ravens, Lily was lying on her bed letting the other two girls patch her up. What she didn't know was that all of the things that were in the modified first aid kit were tinted with magic.

An hour or so later Lily was much better; she could stand up and not be in pain. "Thanks you guys. I don't know what I'd do with out you!" Lily thanked them for what seemed like the thousandth time that hour.

"No problem Lils. Your like our sister." Kita smiled plopping down next to Lily on her bed. "Rave got the letter?!" The girl asked getting excited. Lily was completely confused.

"What letter?" She asked watching as Raven pulled a letter out of her pocket and handed it to her. 'Lily Evans, Second floor, broken cot, Kits Town.' "What the hell is this?" She asked opening it. Raven and Kita were smiling like mad people. This was it! There lily was a witch!

Lily read aloud, "Dear Ms. Evans we are pleased to inform you that you have been accepted to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry?" Lily stopped reading looking up at her friends. "What the flying fuck is this?" She asked. "What kind of joke is this?"

"Lils its no joke! That's the boarding school we go to! You are going to school with us this coming September! You're a witch!" Raven screamed hugging Lily who was in shock.

"I? I'm a what?" She finally stammered out as Raven and Kita let go of her.

"A Witch."

"A witch?"

"Yes a witch.'

"I can't be. I'm not anything special."

"Yes you are! Your plenty special!"

"Yah Lil's you're the greatest and its high time you got a break!" Raven finished the exchange. Lily hurriedly read the rest of her letter in pure shock.

"Okay then... so you're witches too?" Lily asked uncertainly as she tried to process all of the information that she had just been given.

"Yeps."

"We're in Gryffindor!"

"You will be too don't worry!"

"So do you have any questions?"

Lily shook her head slowly. This was like a fairy Tale coming true. She could finally get away from her family... the only problem was, was how to tell them and get away... What could she do against her family?
