Chapter 2
Groaning Jade Avery got up. Not knowing how or why, she felt more energetic than she could ever remember feeling. She felt she could beat them all, no matter what they did to her. Memories came spilling into her conscious mind, she was never aware that she had in fact been a boy or that he had made a wish not to be Harry Potter. He would not be for a long time to come.

She remembered for the first time being refused a hug from her parents… Her father telling her mother she was too old for sentimental stuff. She remembered her father giving her a room that was far too big for her… Having lots of books, which were to be her getaway for many years. She was only five then and didn't understand why she was too big.

Jade remembered being seven years old, made to wear pureblood clothes, doing magic and her parents being so proud of her. They were hugging her and gave her a choice of anything she wanted. She picked a dog which had went missing after two months.
She was never aware that her father had burnt it for peeing on the floor after it had somehow gotten out of Jade's room… Her mother watching a tear leaking from her eye, she knew how much Jade loved that animal, if it kept her daughter happy she would have put up with it.

Jade was nine years old, doing more magic, getting more books and a wand for practice. Her father and her mother proudly watching her excel in the dark arts as well as dark potions. She never really knew that or she would never have done them. Her black hair getting longer as she got older… Her parents never let her cut it not that she wanted it cut. The long hair meant she was available, and when cut, it meant she was taken.

She was eleven years old proudly showing her parents her Hogwarts letter… her parents smiling, but what she didn't know was that they bragged about her to other people, meaning she was going to be in for difficult years at Hogwarts. Getting her Hogwarts uniform and other things… getting a black sleek raven.

Jade was twelve and getting her Hogwarts end of year results… her parents getting her a new drawing set and school books, rare potions ones as well as a new school bag that doesn't weigh anything… Never making any friends… Getting beaten up from the people who would become Death Eaters and not understanding why.

Her other years went the same way. She was in Slytherin and her head of house hated her as did all the other Slytherin's. That was until fifth year. They all stayed clear of her, the younger ones were warned. Jade again didn't understand why they were behaving like that, but grateful. If she knew why she would have wanted them to beat her again, Voldemort had told them to leave her alone and if Voldemort wanted something, it was done.

She began going to the library more often, and ended up getting to know Severus Snape. He loved potions as much as she did also Dark Arts. Although a lot of people didn't like it, they didn't argue because they didn't want to have the wrath of the Dark Lord upon them.

How Jade Avery came to be.
Heather Evans was pregnant. She was in love with a squib and had left the wizarding world to be with him, also to get away from the war. They had an emergency portkey in case anything happened to the place they currently were staying. Heather was expecting twins, the gender she didn't know because they were in the Muggle world which could not tell those kinds of things. She was in love with Jack Jameson who had been a squib from a pureblood line which was now gone because Jacks parents had died shortly after disowning their son from the family. He now went by the name Jack Jameson, never telling anyone his true last name. Not even Heather knew.
When she went into labor, Heather went to a Muggle hospital, delivering two healthy and pretty girls. One they decided to call Lily Evans and the other they called Violet Evans. She was proud, but something happened to make them close off from the wizarding world. They found a nurse and doctor both stunned and one of their children missing. The missing child turned out to be Violet Evans.
They knew they would never get her back so they had taken their remaining daughter and went home, part of them glad that at least one daughter was alive and well. As the months went by they gradually forgot about the missing little girl they had given birth too. Lily was brought up an only child, never knowing she had a twin sister out there or that her father was a squib and her mother was a witch. She went to Muggle School, was brainy and didn't have many friends. She liked to read books.
She then went to Hogwarts, both Jack and Heather knew they could not stop her from wanting to go. They in some way were glad for their daughter, wanting her to like the place. She didn't have the same bitterness they felt towards the wizarding world. It was the wizarding world's fault they had lost their daughter.
Lily grew up quickly, getting better grades than either of them had and also to their surprise and happiness she ended up in Ravenclaw. The same house her mother had been in. They had known all along that she belonged there, having hardly seen her out of a book. Most of the pictures of her growing up had books; her reading them or having them near by.
Her OWLS were amazing! Not that her parents were surprised to see her top grades. They sometimes wished that they had told her about her sister, but always chickened out because they didn't want her to hate them for even a minute.
She fell in love with a pureblood and they knew their daughter would be fine in the world. During Lily's fifth year their house was raided by Death Eaters, killing them before they could reach for the portkeys, their secrets dying with them. Jack was the last supposed heir of Rowena Ravenclaw, but he had been disowned. He hoped his daughters had got the right as her heir. Violet had been born first so she technically was the heir if she was not dead. Heather's secret about Violet died with her. She and Jack had never gotten to tell their daughter that she had a twin sister who may still be out there somewhere. When Lily finds the trunks with her and Violet's birth certificates, she would know.
Lily realized she had a twin somewhere and had never stopped looking for her, but she had no more luck than her parents. She did forgive them only because they were dead. If they had been alive they would have received an earful from her.
In fifth year a girl in Slytherin kept trying to befriend her. Lily liked her, but James and Sirius kept telling her not to trust her. Despite their immature warnings, she had trusted her and had not regretted it. That was until she stopped talking to Lily at all, her eyes had lost the shine they once held. She was like a puppet on strings by the time she left Hogwarts and she was never seen again after that.

Violet Evans was kidnapped by two Death Eaters who could not have children. They knew they could not get through the security of any wizarding hospital. They didn't want to disappoint there Lord, them just having a miscarriage. She had been in a right state and they agreed that they could not tell their Lord, wanting to live. To save themselves and fulfill their lord's wish that they produce an heir, they kidnapped a child from a muggle hospital.
They were going to pretend that she was a squib and let their Lord kill her when she was eleven when she didn't get her Hogwarts letter. They had used a potion which was permanent to make her look like an Avery. She ended up being called Jade because her eyes never changed when she was adopted.
She didn't have as good of a childhood as her sister. She was not loved, but given everything she needed. Especially after she had done accidental magic when she was two years old. What they didn't know was that she had been doing it well before then.
They had given her a potion to change her looks permanently. She looked slightly like Lily, but had black hair and a sharper face. She still looked stunning. She would never again be the twin of Lily Evans. By blood and birth date yes, but looks never.
Jade was given food, drink, a roof over her head and expensive clothes. The only thing she didn't have and wanted was love. She went to Hogwarts and begged to be put in Slytherin, not wanting to disappoint her parents. She made friends with people and began enjoying life. Jade was put in Slytherin like she had asked for.
Her parents were happy. They had a powerful witch to present their Lord with. They were in the inner circle and anyone in the lower ranks who annoyed them was killed. Voldemort favored them for giving them a child, a powerful one at that.
Jade knew none of this. She didn't know she would be given over to the Dark Lord or that she would be forced to be marked and her life taken.
Her parents then put spells on her when she was thirteen so she would never want Sex. They knew how it was for a virgin to lose her virginity. She never wanted Sex even as she got older, she never went further than kisses and even that didn't excite her enough.
When her parents were gone to a meeting they said was important, Jade went up to the attic. She opened the door with her wandless magic and found a trunk that could only be opened with Avery blood. They forgot when they adopted her that she had their blood too. There she found out the truth about her parentage. She knew her true parents didn't sign the form because their signature was not there. She brewed a potion and the name Evans came up. She then realized her parents were dead, but her twin sister was alive! Jade was ecstatic! She could get to know her real family!
It hurt to know that the people she had grown up with were her kidnappers and that they had taken her away. However, they had not been bad to her; she had to give them that. She had everything she wanted, but she didn't know what she was missing loving someone.
Soon she became friends with Lily Evans and began going out with Severus Snape. He was a quiet boy who loved his potions and spent his day reading books. Jade was now going into her seventh year.
At the present time, Jade was sitting eating dinner at the Avery home. She told them something she had dreamed about telling them for a while. However, the reaction was not what Jade had been expecting.
"I want to tell you I'm going out with someone and hope you approve," she said to her family.
"Really and who is it?" asked her father coolly.
"Severus Snape," she said proudly.
Her father dropped his fork. That was not the answer he had been expecting. They already had a contract with the Nott's so Nathan Nott should be the one she was with. They didn't like this at all.
Her father gave her a steely look, saying coldly, "You will split up with him and do it soon."
"What?" she asked in disbelief, not believing her ears. They had told her to do things before, but this was way too much for her to understand. She had truly thought they would have been happy for her.
"You will break up with him. We have someone for you already," said her mother nearly screaming at her.
"NO! I want to be with Severus! I won't split up with him!" she said adamantly. She would not let her parents do this to her, not now. Jade wanted to be with Severus! She was not letting her parents run her life.
"IF you, don't I will kill the boy!" roared Avery.
Jade's eyes widened at the threat. Her father would kill Severus just because she would not break up with him? Why was he doing this to her? Why did he want her to break up with him?
"Why don't you want me to be happy?" asked Jade softly.
"WE have someone for you who will give you what you need! That's that! If you don't break up with him then I will kill him understand? I, will, kill, him in front of you and it wont be quick it will be as painful as possible!" snarled Avery.
"Fine!" she stuttered scared for the first time in her life. Her father had never threatened her before. She didn't understand. They had always been cold, but had never been this horrible to her.
She ran to her room, slamming the door. She cried into her pillow, knowing she would have to break up with Severus. She could feel her heart breaking. Crying herself to sleep, she had a nice dream about her and Severus having children one day.
