"Who are you?" "Lily. What's it to you?" "What's your blood status?" "I don't have one," "Of course you do. What were your parents? Magic, muggle, mudblood?" "They're dead. It's just me." Lily Griffiths' father took a military position in the Middle East when his daughter was six years old, and for many years they were happy. But times change, and Lily and her parents got quickly tangled up in the Afghanistan War. Lily is a witch, a young girl with dead eyes and a gun in her hand. Hogwarts is nothing but another orphanage to her. But when she meets Draco Malfoy, or rather Draco meets her, things change for both of them. Can Lily forget her past, and can Draco fight his future?
