PROLOGUE

"Stupid." her word cut through the static air. 

Everything was pitch black, and Teddy Lupin couldn't see a thing.

"Regret. A waste of time and space." He could hear the waver in her voice as she held back the tears he couldn't see. 

Teddy tried to glance around, looking for the girl who's words became harsher. 

"You are nothing. Who wants a failure anyways? An ugly whore." She paused. "Who would want a person like me?" 

Suddenly, a small light flickered in the darkness, and soon the whole area was lit up, revealing a girl in her bathroom. Tangles of rich black hair hid her face as she sat there, holding her knees as she stared dully into the abyss.

Teddy felt paralyzed as he watched the girl choke back a sob, her pale fingers digging violently into her skin. He watched as silent tears rolled down her face in small waves. He noticed the puffiness around her eyes, red rings and make up smudged around her face.

"I am nothing."

Abruptly, the girl looked up, her hair still clouding her face as she slowly stood up. She looked at the bathroom sink, her small, delicate fingers skimming over her toothbrush, toothpaste, and what made Teddy feel his breath catch in his throat, a box cutter. 

She hesitated, but slowly grasped the handle before slowly pushing the blade out. The metal blade was sharp, no doubt about that.

Her hands shook violently as she slowly pressed the cool metal against her wrist, and dragged it. A thin line of crimson liquid quickly begun to spill from the wound, the smell of metallic filling Teddy's nose.

Almost as soon as she removed the box cutter, it slipped through her hands, falling to the floor.

" Dammit!" she cursed, her hands shaking even more as she raised her hand over the sink, were the blood oozed out from her cut.

Slowly, the girl squatted down an grabbed the box cutter, only to pause for a moment. Her grip on the muggle item suddenly tightened, her fist shaking with rage as she gabbed a tuff of black hair before jamming the box cutter onto it, slicing all if the hair off in jeered lines.

Teddy felt all of the color on his face drain as watched the girl choke in another sob, before sloppily pressing the box cutter to her neck.

Wiping away what Teddy presumed was tears, the girl let out a shaky breath before mumbling her very last words, " now shut the hell up."

Blood splat everywhere, staining the mirror in the crimson liquid before dripping down.

Teddy's heart stopped as he watched the girl's jagged breaths slowly came to a halt. It had all happened so fast, Teddy hadn't realize what had happened until he felt something wet and slippery slid down his face. His hand touched the wet substance, only to see the thick, crimson blood of the girl.

" Holy --"
