BLACK BLOOD

To any other, it would be hard enough to act as one of them, much less actually be one. From the moment they were born, there were always elders breathing down their backs, telling them to sit up, stand up straight, make their outfit neater, and watch their tongue. Little mundane things were brought to extremes; a quality that caused many of them to be looked upon as cold or heartless.

The young were told what was right and wrong- beliefs that their parents had placed upon them, with no room for adjustments, leaving many others to think that they had been brainwashed. The young did not know what to think, and neither did the elders, as it was all they had ever known for generations and generations to come. To others, they had fallen into the wrong crowd, loyalties chosen wrong.

This was the life of a Black.

From a young age, her parents had instilled in her their values and beliefs, becoming a model child along with her elder brother Regulus. As the Black children grew older, their lives became more complicated than they desired, and they would learn what it was to have Black blood.
