My First Few Close Calls to Death
My life didn't really have a good start. I was the daughter of Lucius and Narcissa Malfoy and the sister of Draco Malfoy. Ever since I was born Voldemort wanted to kill me. He knew I was different from all the Malfoy's since the very beginning. The same day that he tried to kill Harry Potter he tried to kill me. My mother didn't let him. Voldemort and my mother made an unbreakable vow that in the next ten years if I proved to be of no help to him Voldemort would have to kill me.
My father and my brother were others that absolutely hated me. My mother obviously loved me since she did save my life when I was a little baby. When I was about five years old my father made me clean the house without magic. I felt like a muggle cleaning without magic. I always knew that I was a witch. Our house elf Dobby kept me company when I was cleaning. I don't know why he would complain that he had a lot of work when I did most of it. My father and Draco would watch me clean. They would make messes on purpose so I can have more work to do. Sometimes every now and then my mom would help me. She would get on her knees and scrub the floor with me or do whatever I was doing without magic. One day my father saw my mother helping me and boy did he get mad at her. They had this whole argument and of course my dad won. He always wins.
Another thing that I found totally unfair is that Draco had girlfriends left and right. Almost every week he would have a new one. One day he'd break up with one and the next day he'd be with another. I wasn't allowed to have a boyfriend. My father thought that it would take away from my "house work" time. I call "house work" time "muggle slave monkey" time. Once I hit my primary last year (fifth grade in the muggle world) at the end of term I literally fell head over heels for Jason Scott. In the wizard world there was a school for child witches and wizards that knew that they had magic. Everyone that wasn't mentioned was in that school with me. I didn't tell anyone that I liked him though. I kept to myself. When I would clean the house I would daydream about him and then Draco would yell at me to hurry up and finish because his girlfriend was coming over. That's how it basically was.
Then my birthday came. I was turning ten. Most kids would be happy on their tenth birthday because they'll have double digits but not me. I was scared to death. It's been ten years that my mother made that unbreakable vow with Voldemort. I've been no help to him. After today I'll die. After today they'll be no more Allyson Malfoy.
At around noon time an owl came to our house and had a letter for Malfoy and me. I opened it up and read it. It read the following:
Dear Ms. Malfoy,
We are very pleased to inform you that you have been accepted to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft & Wizardry. Please find enclosed a list of all necessary supplies and equipment. Term starts September 1st, and you will be sorted into one of the four houses on that date. We await you owl no later than July 31st. Once we receive your owl, we will send further information on your entrance to Hogwarts.
Yours Sincerely,
Minerva McGonagall
Deputy Headmistress
I was accepted in to Hogwarts! Sadly, so was my brother. My father did not want to send me to Hogwarts. My mother did. They had an argument so big that Draco and I stood there with our mouths literally hanging. Believe it or not, my mother won but my father said that he had to show my letter of acceptance into Hogwarts to Voldemort to see what he'll say about it.
Before my father even stepped out the door Voldemort came in. Well technically it wasn't Voldemort it was Professor Quill who's gonna teach Defence Against the Dark Arts this year at Hogwarts. Voldemort is on the back of Quill's head. Voldemort came in and said in a very faint voice "Time's up. I must kill the girl." My father said "Before you do read this." Voldemort read the letter. When he finished reading he said "Ahh. The young witch has been accepted into Hogwarts. Word on the street is that Harry Potter has been to. This could be my chance." Then he looked at me and told me "I'll let you live but under this condition. You must be in Slytherin. I want you to get close to Harry Potter and that old coot Dumbledore. I want you to get to know them. Once you have gained their full trust I want you to turn your backs on them. I've been wanting to kill Harry Potter for a long time but I know now that you must be the one to kill him."
I go "Why do you want to kill him so bad? What's wrong with his family?" Voldemort replied "I'd just know you'd ask me that question. James Potter was a disgrace to me and Snape. We-"I interrupt him and ask "Who's Snape?" Voldemort answers me back in the nastiest way that any person could answer "Girl don't you DARE interrupt me while I'm speaking unless you want to die right here right now! If you must know Snape is a Professor at Hogwarts. He will teach both you and your wonderful brother potions." I chuckled a little when Voldemort said that my brother was wonderful. He said "Your brother is a blessing to this family and you know that very well young lady." I just tell Voldemort that he is because I don't want him to kill me. Voldemort went on with his story. "Snape and I both agreed that Lilly was a fine young woman. We didn't care if she was muggle born. She was just absolutely beautiful. Then that Potter ruined everything for us in our third year. He was in love with Lilly. In our sixth year we got tired of it. So, one day we got him and challenged him to a duel for Lilly's love. In the middle of the duel Lilly came by. She asked us why we were fighting. Snape answered her "For your love my dear." Lilly replied "Well you can stop the duel because I know which one of you I love. I've loved you since my third year at Hogwarts." We all answered at the same time "WHO?" What she said next ruined Snape's life and mine. "I love James." Then James told her "I love you too Lilly my beautiful." Then he kissed her. When he kissed her I felt so dark inside. When he kissed her I felt like a loser.
Lilly and James dated for a year and one day I went to the Three Broomsticks in Hogsmeade and of course Lilly and James were there too. When the waiter left my table the oddest thing happened. I saw goblins playing violins. Then I look where the goblins were and they were at Lilly and James table. Then James said "Lilly I've loved you since the first day we meet. I've wanted to ask you this for a while now." Then the worst came. He got down on one knee and said "Lilly Evans will you marry me?" In a second flat Lilly said yes. When Lilly said yes I felt like I had depression. I also felt that I had found my purpose in life and that was to kill James Potter and make the beautiful Lilly mine.
When I left Hogwarts I became the most powerful dark wizard in the world. When Lilly and James had Harry everyone was talking about a prophesy. I heard that the prophesy stated that one day there will be a wizard powerful enough to destroy me. I knew for a fact that it was Lilly and James' son Harry. So I had to kill James and Harry. I went into their house one night and I was kind of successful. I was able to kill James but not Harry. When I killed James I went for Harry. Lilly didn't want me to kill Harry. All I can remember from that day was this conversation:
"Not Harry, please no don't kill him, take me, kill me instead – "
"This is my last warning – "
"Not Harry! Please… have mercy… Not Harry! Please – I'll do anything…"
"Marry me Lilly."
"No! I'll never marry you! You took away my husbands' life and now you want to take away my baby's life too."
"Why would you want to die a horrible death when you can be the wife of the most powerful wizard in the world!"
"No! I'd rather die than marry you!"
"Then it's settled. Before I kill you I want you to know that I've loved you my entire life."
"I've hated you my entire life."
"Good bye Lilly Evans Potter. AVADA KEDAVRA!"
I couldn't belive that I had just killed the woman I had loved my entire life but it had to be done. She didn't love me and she wanted to be with James and now she is. Then I went to kill Harry but I couldn't. Lilly's sacrifice to spare Harry's life was so strong that I couldn't even touch him. That power made me disappear. Then I reappeared as a soul in forest of Albania and met Quill there. That how I got a body back. I also split my soul into seven Horcuxes and hid them. I must kill Harry Potter. He can not destroy me. I also don't want him to do the same thing that his father did to me to your brother."
When he finished his story I was amazed. I couldn't believe that he became all dark, evil, and grouchy over a girl. I thought to myself "I'd better tell Jason that I like him as soon as I get my but on the Hogwarts Express unless I wanna end up like Voldemort." Then Voldemort looked at me and said "You have to kill Harry Potter." I replied "What if I like him and I end up falling in love with him?" I only said that because I don't want to kill an innocent person that has to die cause he could kill an evil wizard that I want to die anyways. Voldemort looked at me and said "Allyson if you fall for that boy I will find you and kill you faster than I would kill a cockroach." Then my mother quickly steeped in the conversation and said "You can't kill someone just for falling in love with someone you want to kill. Look at you. You fell in love with Lilly. Did your parents want you to fall in love with a muggle born?" Voldemort replied "No." Then my mother said "Well did they kill you?" Voldemort said "No." Then my mom replied "So then why would you want to do that to my daughter?" Voldemort did not say a word. After five minuets my brother said "Are you gonna kill Allyson or what?" Voldemort said "No. I give her permission to go to Hogwarts. I'm going to try my best not to kill her. Allyson have a nice life…for now at least." With that said Voldemort left. My father said "Well let's not dilly dally you kids are going to Hogwarts in one day. Tomorrow we'll take you to Diagon Alley to buy your supplies." Then my mother said "Who knew Voldemort still had a heart."
