(Y/n)'s Pov

When I got my things and brought them down to the basement, I went to the kitchen to see Issac "Sir, I just wanted to ask what would you like for breakfast tomorrow?" "Hard boiled eggs, two of them. Don't make any mistakes or you'll regret it. Got it?" "Yes sir. Second question what would you like me to do now?" "First shut up. Second make diner. Third clean up. And then go to bed." he said and I did as instructed.

"I asked for Soft boiled eggs!" Issac screamed "I'm so sorry sir. It won't ever happen again. Could I remake your breakfast?" "Sorry won't cut it!" he said slapping me to the ground. He started punching me and kicking my ribcage. After about half an hour of beating he stopped "Now remake my breakfast and don't make any more mistakes!" he said. I got up and got to work. I know that he'll make up things just to beat me up. I'm like a slave to him, I mean I lived in other abusive households, but he was the worst.

It went on like this for two years. I get up do my chores, he finds/makes up a flaw, I get beaten up. The each day would be worse than the last.

One evening Issac came back late and drunk. I was done with chores and I was just resting in the basement. Until... "(Y/n) get your ass up here!" he screamed. I made my way upstairs and instantly got slammed to the wall "I told you bitch to clean this place up before I get back!!!" he started to beat me again, but it was way worse than all the other times. He screamed insults at me. The neighbors heard and called 999. When the police arrived they took him to the police station. And soon enough the ambulance arrived and took me with them.

And so I soon was sent back to the orphanage. It was warm outside, but I still had my (F/c) hoodie on. During the first week I was back Elizabeth tried to cheer me up. Apparently while I was gone Amelia was adopted thank God I don't have to see her again. But I do have a feeling that I'll see her again.

It was finally the start of summer and that means I'll meet Lily and Sev again. I grabbed my favorite book and headed out. I soon reached the river and saw the same flower from the last time. As before it was the only one that wasn't blooming. I came closer to it and placed my hands around it, concentrating. I took my hands back and saw a fully bloomed flower "You can do magic?" someone from behind me asked rather excitedly. I turned around there they stood. Lily and Severus "Don't worry, we also have magical abilities. I'm Lily Evans and this is Severus Snape. What's your name?" Lily said. I smiled a goofy smile and said "(Y/n) (L/n). Nice to meet you." I said.

We sat down in the grass and talked about our likes and dislikes, magic, Hogwarts. We stayed like that for hours just chatting. It was great to just be able to see them again, but I mustn't get too attached 'Remember your bloody mission. You'll stop caring for them and they'll forget you.' I kept reminding myself.

Just like last time nobody wanted to adopt me anymore. Everyday I would either study or spend time with either Lily and Sev or Angie and Luci.

Finally my eleventh birthday arrived, again. There it was again. A knock on my door "Come in." just as I said that Elizabeth came in with a man known as Dumbledore behind her.  "Hello..." I greeted them both "(Y/n), this is professor Dumbledore. He would like to talk with you in private." she said grinning from ear to ear, trying not to show excitement. While I was thinking she left the room (where it happens).

"(Y/n), it's good to see you again. As you may know, you're different. You possess a great gift and you need to master that gift. You probably heard about a school for people like you. That's why I'm here, to give you your acceptens letter to Hogwarts." he finished saying. I smiled sincerely, which I don't do ofen "Thank you so much, professor." I said as he gave me the Hogwarts letter. I took it and read through it.

Dear (Y/n) (L/n),

We are pleased to inform you that you have been accepted at Hogwarts school of witchcraft and wizardry. Please find enclosed a list of all necessary books and equipment.

Term begins on 1 September. We await your owl by no later than 31 July.

Yours sincerely,

Minerva McGonagall
Deputy headmistress

As I finished reading it, I looked up at the headmaster "But sir where in London can I get a cauldron or any of these books?" I asked  "Don't worry about it. I'll come here next week and we'll get your supplies." he said getting ready to leave "Oh and Happy Birthday, (Y/n)" he said before leaving.

Just as the last time he came back.

"Are you ready, (Y/n)?" he asked "I am not throwing away my shot." I responded "Let's go then." he said and we apparated to a street filled with wizards and witches. "Where are we?" I asked pretending not to know "(Y/n), welcome to Diagon Alley. We'll get your supplies here. Oh and here is your ticket don't loose it." he said giving me the Hogwarts express ticket. I looked at it "But sir it says that to get on the train I have to be on platform 9 3/4. I don't think I've ever seen it." I said. "You'll have to run straight at the wall between platforms 9 and 10" he answered calmly.

It's been about 3 or 4 months since that small trip to Diagon alley. I packed all of my things, school supplies and essentials. Elizabeth drove me to the King's Kross station "You existed, kiddo?" she asked me on the way there. "Of course I'm excited." I answered back. "I was too, when I was a little girl. Oh, look we're here all ready. Good luck, (Y/n). And write to me if you'll need anything." she said smiling sincerely "Okay I will. Thank you, Elizabeth, so much for everything." I said getting out of the car.

10:45 A.M. I still have 15 minutes, great. Now just to get to platforms 9 and 10. I made it to the platform on time. Luckily I found an empty compartment. I sat down and started to read my book. A few minutes later there was a knock "Hey, (Y/n). Can we sit here everywhere else was full." it was Lily. "Oh, hey. Sure you can." I responded.

The three of us - me, Lily and Sev were chatting for about half an hour. Then there was another knock and in came four boys. "Hey, can we sit here?" James asked. We all nodded. They all came in and sat down on the opposite side of the compartment. They all started chatting, but I wasn't interested so I kept on reading my book.

"I KNOW I'm going to be a Gryffindor. Everyone in my family was. Besides it's the BEST house." god... This kid is annoying, I can't concentrate. I decided to just cancel out the noises.
"Oi, what about you?" the same boy directed his voice towards me. I looked up from my book "I don't care what house I'll be sorted into. It's your personality that matters not your house. Most people say that Slytherins are all evil, but Merlin was a Slytherin and he was a great man. You shouldn't judge a person by their house." I responded the same way "freak... You're a FREAK! WHAT do you mean the house does not matter!!!" he shouted at me.

I just got up, grabbed my things and said "Sorry Lilly, Sev, but being near these idiots just brings my iq level down." Then I left looking for a new compartment. At the very back of the train was the same empty compartment, but this time Angie and Luci were in there. In their human forms, of course. "Anything from the trolley, dears?" an old witch asked me "Three chocolate frogs and three liquorice wands, please." I said politely, giving her the money. "Thank you." I thanked her "Oh no problem, miss. Here's some Birty Botts." she said giving me a box of Birty Bott's every flavor beans. "How much do I owe you?" I asked "Nothing, they're on me." she said smiling "Thank you." I said before she left. When we were left alone we just talked about the plan. Ange and Luci are going to hide in the castle just in case I need their help.

A few hours later it was getting dark outside. The train stopped signaling that we arrived.

K well I'm done and tired. Sorry for not updating the chapters I wanted it to be perfect. Love y'all.
