Creatures Blood

Chapter 1

The pain was coming from my back and from my mouth. I was stuck in my own world of pain, not even noticing Aunt Petunia opening the door to see why I was screaming. Or to attempt shutting me up. Either way, I didn't hear the locks unlock or the door open. I also didn't notice her walk in. I didn't even notice Dudley or Uncle Vernon come in to see me screaming in pain.

My cousin, in his younger years, would hurt me but that was nothing compared to this. Uncle Vernon's punishments were more normal. They would on inflict a small bruise from a hard grip. They didn't hurt me, Dudley hadn't physically hurt me since puberty started. Even if all the girls in my neighborhood hated me, they didn't want an abusive guy to date. Also, the rule of "never hit a girl" went into play. Now he taunted me and got me in trouble. Sometimes I'd only get lunch or dinner. My plate wasn't much as it was leftovers and I only got all three full meals...

Well, that hadn't happened since I was ten.

Aunt Petunia's punishments were taking one of her chores and putting it on my chore list. If it was late it was simply Uncle Vernon's punishment but less force. Go to my room.

While this happened I didn't realize Aunt Petunia was trying to help. To those from an outside view, it would like she knew exactly what she was doing. She told Dudley to get some old towels that can be thrown away and for Uncle Vernon to get a bucket of water. She went ahead and got a leather belt. That's when I noticed her.

"Okay, Rosie, I know what's happening is painful but listen closely and do exactly as I say." How would she know? Dudley and Uncle Vernon came back and then she shooed them away to bed. She told me to bite into the leather. Surprisingly, it eased the pain in my mouth. She closed the door and took my shirt off me. She laid a wet towel on my back. I was still confused on how she knew what she was doing. The wet towel was cold and soothing. It didn't help my body as the leather belt did for my teeth.

Suddenly something burst from my back. It hurt. I could feel it bursting out of my flesh. My canines had pierced into the belt and the pain seemed to start subsiding in my mouth. "Okay, Rosie, I'm taking the towel off." I felt it come off and she touched whatever came out. She touched it gently and repeatedly soaked the towel to wash them. She took hours and eventually the pain I felt subsided. I got up and looked in a mirror after she left. She left saying that "I could sleep in." I didn't understand exactly but sleeping in? I'll take it.

My reflection didn't look much different. I still had my mum's ginger hair, my eyes remained the same color but on my back were pure white wings. What's going on?

~Later That Week~

I had thought I was dreaming half the week. Seriously, I'm given proper meals suddenly, allowed fewer chores, taken shopping, actually treated like a family member, and my aunt doesn't mind me taking my trunk out to review. Or even taking Hedwig out! This was really new but I liked it. If it weren't for accidentally cutting myself I would've thought this was all a dream. That's another thing when I cut myself or any injury, Aunt Petunia immediately went to take care of it. What happened? What made them change so suddenly?

Let's say a letter from Gringotts cleared it up.

Dear Ms. Potter,

It has come to our attention that you have come into your inheritance. An Inheritance calls for us to reveal what vaults you will inherit, what heirships you will inherit when you're of age, properties that you inherited. While you are here we recommend you take a block test; a test where we look to see if you have any blocks on your being and under the influence of spells and potions. Please note that on the back of this is your birth certificate.

While you are here, we wish to speak to you about money issues. It seems someone has taken large quantities of money from the Potter vaults.
