Prologue: The Mind of Another.
Darkness had taken its toll on her. Her nightmares had gotten worse ever since the Dark Lord was known to be back in power, even after the flabbergasted Minister of Magic announced it; she knew she could only stand on thin ice. Her nightmares were always the same. Always about -Him,- she couldn't stand it. She had to go somewhere safe. Her mind was so frigid; she couldn't remember the last time she slept peacefully.
The dreams remained a constant reminder of her birth. She knew she only had little time left before -He- found her. Her nightmares always consisted of an evil laughter in the background of her dream; she didn't know why it kept up. Her dream always seemed so peaceful. Then she began dreaming of the day of Harry Potter's first triumph, the day he had gotten his scar. She only wished she knew why she dreamed of that day. For she knew she was just about Harry's age at the time of its occurrence.
Now it was Harry's sixth year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, she had to know what the dream was about. She read books about dreams and how they try to tell you something, however she couldn't be sure of what it was trying to tell her. The only fact remained was that she needed to get to Hogwarts and have a chat with the school's Headmaster: Albus Dumbledore. She knew that if she could talk to him, he may know something. She knew Albus couldn't be all that bad if Tom Marvolo Riddle was afraid of him.
The only thing that was left in her mind was the fact about explaining why she had never answered her letter from the school, she had gotten six years ago. She knew he would be surprised about her interesting situation, as well as her knowledge for Magical World, and the spells that were lodged into her cerebrum. She knew she would surpass all the tests with flying colors before entering the building; hopefully, she could just go there and tell him what she knows then leave quietly without a trace.
However, she knew Albus Dumbledore may confront her about where she had been, and why she doesn't want to attend the school. However, she wouldn't let that get to her. She had built the courage to confront him, and she was well prepared to answer his dauntless inquiries about what she had done until now. She knew she had been thought dead, however she wasn't going to let that get to her. Tom Marvolo Riddle will not beat her, she contorted in her mind. She will not let that loathsome, hideous creature beat her at this Chess game Dumbledore and him began years before she existed. She was not going to be used as a pawn by either of them, and she would be infuriated if they even tried to.
She was not a -pawn- to be dealt a life of servitude. She was more than that; she was a girl who both sides could gain something if she joined their cause. And she was determined to remain neutral at all costs. And that was when she decided to hide her true identity from the one and only, Albus Dumbledore. She looked to her name and began scrambling the letters and some she even crossed out to fashion herself a new name.
Vivian…came to be her first name. She decided. She couldn't think of a new middle name with the letters she had left, or of a last name. So she decided to keep her original middle name, Elvira. Then an idea struck her mind, maybe instead of coming up with a last name with the letters of her name. She would use another word that would describe her. Shadow, she stated dimly in her mind, it fit her, for she was to be a shadow of her former self.
So now she was……………………Vivian Elvira Shadow.
A/N: So what do you think? Is it stupid, is it great? I don't mind sass, I would like an honest answer though. I know I never posted anything before, so surprise surprise I goofed the first go at putting this chapter up. So here it is again, hopefully I didn't any mistakes. I acidentally called my character a He, when she is actually a She. I guess third time is the charm, as the saying goes, I do hope this is the last time to correct myself again. -sigh-. So Tell me what you think already. I'm quite on edge, and it feels as if I placed myself on display, so I would like some confident words of encouragement, or even words of discouragement. Which ever you prefer to give me. PLEASE REVEIW!!!!
