I guess you could say I always was in the know. I mean, my baby sister was dying before she even had a chance to live, and my parents called in a miracle. They saved her, and when they did I swore nothing would ever take her away from me again. And I've kept that promise. While the other girls were playing with dolls, I had toy guns and handcuffs. I took martial arts when they took ballet. And I learned. I read and studied and learned everything I could about all the things that could hurt you, the things that went bump in the night. I learned all about them so I could be what bumped back.

After school, I wanted to enroll to the police acadamy. I was in muggle schools, but then the magic started around ten. And because I was in the know-- mum and dad decided public school wasn't an option anymore.  They sent me away to Durmstrang.  I was sorted into Ruhig... and that's where I met him.

I know what you're thinking, a vampire is a vampire. There's no redemption in any of them. He was different. He-- he completed me somehow. And when I was with him the world made sense. Not just that-- but I knew where I belonged. When I was with him--- I was whole.

He was going to leave. Give it all up. And it was just going to be me and him. They didn't like that, or that he was giving it up for a "muggle born." So-- there was a murder. And when his name came up, I was scared.  I stayed as far away from it as possible. Only, it didn't stay away from me. The next body was found with my name written on her chest in blood. The third-- in my bedroom. Completely drained of blood. They threatened my sister was next. I wouldn't lose her. So I went to the drop point.

It was three months that the monsters held me in their House. I was nothing but a blood sack, a buffet for them all to savor. And they taped it. And made me watch. Over and over and over again they killed me.... until all I wanted was death. I craved it. Cried out for it. Begged for it.

And then he came. He saved me. He killed the lot of them, except the ones who had started it all. He burned their house to the ground and took me back. But I still-- I still am not the same. There are scars on every major pulse point in my body. And they burn.

So I was sent to Hogwarts.  I was sorted into Hufflepuff.  I have a cherry wand with a unicorn tail core.  I met Seok, and he's sweet.  He tries to understand, but-- when I wake up screaming at night from the nightmares, it's not his bed I crawl into for comfort.  It's Louis'.  Louis is the ONLY one who knows what they did to me-- what they tried to turn me into. It started just as comfort, the things I saw and the things I see now scared me to the brink of insanity and Louis gets that.  I don't have to pretend with him, the way I do with Seok.  Seok needs me to be perfect and happy, and completely angelic.  Louis--understands the horns that hold up my halo.  I'd say I loved him, but can I be capable of love?  I care for them both because Seok sees who I want to be, and Louis who I am.  I don't know if I can choose. Someday I'll have to, but til then I'll just go about my business. I protect my sister and the other students from the monsters. But I know them. I've seen their faces.

And when I become an Auror, I will be the last thing they see before they all explode into ashes....
