I wake up in a dark place knowing im in the blasted cupboard again. Hearing the horse like shrew coming down the stairs. I quickly ready myself for the day. Even still I think about whether I should stay or go. Once the cupboard is unlocked I step out I'm small I realize. I hurry to the kitchen and begin breakfast. While cooking I noticed I'm missing scars from year eight and most from year seven. Alrighty then guess I'm seven. But I won't be getting more scars.

As I put all the food out in the dinning room I noticed it's still summer outside. Oh! How nice I'll have to see what day it is on the calendar later. Petunia comes back just after I finished taking all the food to the table and looks awed for a moment before scowling. Grabbing a piece of toast she broke it in half then told me to eat in the kitchen before beginning the chores.

Once safely in the kitchen I ate the toast and spare bit of eggs I'd left in the pan for myself. And quickly washed the dishes from cooking then began cleaning the kitchen down. Vaguely recognizing the sound of them enjoying their food. I paused my scrubbing. 'what on earth am I doing?? I'm a damned wizard!!!!' concentrating on my magic I pulled and felt the magic start cleaning for me. 'I need to get out of here. And take as much as I need to.'

Now that the kitchen would be clean soon I quickly went to the drawer Petunia kept petty cash in and pulled out the five hundred pounds she had in an envelope labeled for dudder big day. Causing me to roll my eyes but at least I know Dudley isn't seven yet which means I'm not. Quickly shoving the money in my pocket and putting the envelope back quietly. Then took note that the kitchen was clean. Ending the magic. I went out to the sitting room and did the same. 'hmm.. I should take everything I might need waste not want not after all.'

Once I was certain that it would be clean soon I grabbed the cushion Dudley had always hidden his extra chocolate in and emptied it into the fire place. Neatly ensuring it wouldn't be seen. Course they'd smell it once lit. 'They'll notice on samhein when they light the first fire of the year.' Ending the spell here I went to the laundry room. Pouring all the soap in with only a small amount of clothes.

I smirked to myself. As I closed the laundry room door. Retreating to the cupboard I had an idea. I used my broken crayons to draw a picture of Snape holding my mum and messily wrote daddy find me soon. Making sure it had my view from the crib. As well as several depicting my treatment by the Dursleys. I'd send that once far enough away from here.

Hearing them move to the sitting room I quickly went to the kitchen then through to the dinning room. After ensuring that all those dishes were clean I went upstairs and began with Dudley's room. Once I had his bag empty of useless drivel I spelled the room into shape. Moving into Vernon's room I made quick work of taking everything of quick value from the wallet in his trousers. Doing an undetectable expansion charm on the bag I took the thick winter blankets, a new pillow multiple pillow cases, the emergency kit, and all the new bottles of soap from under their bathroom sink. 'waste not.'

Thinking about it I wanted towels to but that required a trip to the linen closet quickly spelling the room to clean itself. I went to the linen closet and took sheets towels rags and a few light blankets. All that packed I ended the spell in their room. And did a lighter cleaning spell on the guest bedroom. Then went to Dudley's second bedroom. Spelling it clean without interest as well. Once done I headed down to the kitchen hiding the bag in the cupboard below the sink I began to make their mid morning tea. I was starting to feel the heavy use of my magic.

'if I'm going to keep this up I need to eat and drink. Not to mention get out side soon. Hmm.. I should take there food stuff to that will keep me feed for a long time.' I thought to myself. Deciding to make biscuits and little cakes for them. I also began to make lunch for them while I was at it. Better to have that out of the way. Just as I finished making the tea tray ready the shrew called for me. Bringing the tea tray with me I headed to the sitting room.

Dudley attempted to trip me but I simply changed course and ensured that the tea was set safely on the table before turning to her. Head down watching her gape at how submissive and how well I had tended to what she'd have wanted. "Where's the nibbles?" She finally managed to ask clearly at a loss for words.

"In the kitchen miss. Thought it best to bring them next as to not break the tea set." I replied ensuring I sounded frightened. Her jaw wasn't the only one that dropped. Vernon's did to. Causing his chins to jiggle. 'I should take some biscuits to I made them after all. Want not.'

"Best to fetch it quickly then boy." I could hear how shaken she was. Moving quickly I brought out the sweets placing them closest to Dudley. Then left the room heading back and set the magic to clean up while I took all the canned food and non spoiling food shoving it into the bag before finishing up lunch and carefully dropping the bag in the back garden through the kitchen window.

By the time I had eaten a bit. Finished their lunch and cleaned the kitchen. They were calling me for lunch so I brought it out to the dinning room. Setting them all places and moved though to the sitting room to visibly clean up from their morning in it. As they ate I carefully cleaned up. They were still eating as I walked back from the kitchen. And went to the back door. Silent as I opened it. Keeping my head down to show submission.

I started weeding the garden while keeping an eye on them to ensure I got out of the yard once they quit watching. And soon enough they did grabbing the bag I went to the shed and took tools and the big knives even took the large amount of tangled up ropes. Having an idea to summon anything that belonged to my parents I put some real umph behind it and summoned once everything was here I shoved it all into the bag. Then summoned anything that was rightfully mine when a large amount of money, my father's cloak, and the elder wand arrived. I was furious.

Quickly floating everything up then into the bag. I grabbed the hose dragging it out. I will drown her prised petunias. Once I had it all set up I magicked it to flood both the back and front yard. Then moved to the broken part of the fence. From here there would be no Mrs Figg to spy my leaving. Once out I quickly ran down the alleyway till I reached the spot that would let me into the woods. Thinking of the mountain I had found out I owned I focused and pulled hard on my magic. Willing myself to aperate there. Then with a pop I was gone from private drive.
