She limped into her room.Her magic slowly healing the small things leaving scars in their wake.Catching a glimpse of the only photo of her Mother and Father smiling at her.

Facing the mirror looking at herself she saw what condition she was.

She wore a black long sleeve which she yanked off to reveal she scarred and bruised body.Years of harsh training and occasional beatings. Historia was caked in them zig-zag on her arm and stomach and whip lines criss-crossed her back the largest one went from her right shoulder to her left hip.

Though she was painted in awful scars her beauty was unmistakable.Jet black hair reached the tip of her ears. Bangs that stuck to her forehead from sweat, pale skin shined as the moon light hit her from the open window and hazel eyes slightly dulled but beautiful under her black lashes. She was short and thin for her age, but beautiful. Moving to touch her bruises she winced.

"Toff."

And with a pop her house elf in a ragged clothe appeared.Bowing her pointed ears reaching the ground.

"What is it that Mistress Moon needs?"

"Would you mind going to my personal storage and get a pain relieving and pepper-up potion and some food,please?" she asked as she collapsed on her bed.

With a pop Toff was gone.

Histora was left to bandage what she can .She was never allowed to heal fully, her Uncle said that scars were a source of honor she never fully understood cause it hurt like hell and she usefully risked getting an infection. Mid-bandaging her right arm Toff popped in again with bottles of pain relieving and pepper up potions with a tray of food floating beside her.Settling everything on the desk on the bed side she went to her Mistress side.

"May I help Mistress Moon wounds?"

Historia nodded handing Toff the bandages.

As she started to wrap her arm the sun was coming up shining through the trees.

She downed the potions,and lost in her thoughts biting into a sandwich until Toff spoke.

"Why must Master treat Mistress Moon to cruelly? She is child not tool?"she must have noticed she said it out loud because she started to shake and dropped to the ground bowing until her nose was pressed uncomfortably to the ground.

"S-s-sorry I Spoke out of l-ll-ine s-s-sorry Toff will punish herself for insulting M-master."

Historia signed and patted the elf head amused,"Don't apologize Toff your free to speak your mind when we are alone," she pulled back and stared out the window,"he is a cruel man no need to apologize for speaking the truth."

Toff nodded wiping her tears,"Mistress has a kind heart just like her mother."with a gasp her droopy ears perked and she popped away to return with a small cake with a single candle lit.

"Toff has remembered Happy Birthday Mistress."she said with a toothy smile this made Historias heart warm and hugged Toff causing her to drop the small cake.

"You are the only one who has ever showed me kindness Toff."she allowed the tears she had been holding to fall.This elf basically raised her she was the only kind being shes met.

Toff pulled away and wiped Historias tears peeking her cheek,"Toff is happy to hear Mistress say that and that she trust Toff to cry in front of her.Mistress mother will be happy to see her daughter grow, she would be happy to see her daughter happy not hurt and in pain. And you are kind Mistress Moon kind as her mother."

She smiled slightly putting a hand over Toffs small one that laid on her cheek," Toff tell me of back then with my mother."

Toff hesitated and banished the mess on the floor.

Historia had got off her knees and sat back against the bed as Toff combed her hair, something that always calmed her.

"About what Mistress?"

"Anything."

Toff was quiet for a moment.

"She was kind, Former Mistress.Always watered the flowers and Mistress voice was soft.As child she and Master would sneak into the kitchen for sweets, big sweet tooth she had,and Toff would pretend not to notice.Back then Master and Mistress were happy childs. Always smiling."

"R-really?"Historia asked surprised.

To think Uncle was ever happy let alone smiling.But at least I know where I got may sweet tooth.

Toff chuckled,"Yes Mistress Moon,both once happy.Mistress never cared for persons blood purity she loved all. Master once did as well ,but then Masters and Mistress mother passed and they became distant started cruel training.Mistress was strong,yes but Master was stronger, faster.Mistress was sad when her brother became cold and mean taking on blood purity and went away to escape war and Master was mad saying Mistress was a coward. Toff felt sad at loss of Mistresses calming presence and smile.But years pass and came back with husband.........and you Mistress.Such a tiny thing you were Mistress let Toff hold you, so light you were."

Historia blushed,"M-my Father, what was he like?"

"Toff doesn't know much but that Mistress was happy when with him Master didn't like him much.Thought him as weak as well as Mistress for marrying him,"Toff shook her head her ears bobbing,"but Master was wrong, Mistress strong so was Husband."Toff began to sniffed, tears falling from her yellow elf eyes.

"Then one day when Young Mistress was one year Master had a huge fight with Mistress saying b-baby shouldn't be raised with such weak persons.But then E-evil man came storming Manor.Strong dark magic.M-m-mistress stood up to him as well as Master and h-husband.Evil man said he w-w-wanted to kill baby Mistress. Toff doesn't know why and Toff couldn't stay long to k-know why because b-baby was given to her and Mistress o-ordered T-t-toff to r-r-run away from Manor.Long time passed when Master came to find T-t-toff and Toff know t-that Mistress was g-g-gone.But Toff know that M-mitress fought to protect child.Toff k-know that Mistress w-was s-strong to the very end.Both Mistress and husband."

Historia felt a bail form in her throat and she swallowed it down.

"T-thank you Toff, you may go now."

And with a pop she was gone, and Historia was left alone.Wanting to cry, to yell, wanting it find this Evil man and kill him.But she couldn't and forced it all down,all of it.

Even if she wanted to find him she wouldn't know where to go. The times she had tried to get answers from Toff she would burst into tears and pop away. Historia knew that she was ordered to keep things specifically about the war. He never liked to talk about it so she never pushed it. She would only get bits from the kids that would come over when ever Uncle would have a party.Nothing really useful and certain books in the Manors library were forbidden .And trying to find out about the war would earn a beating. Never understanding why things were always kept from her it made Historia frustrated.

That BASTARD I have a right to know about what happened!!!!

While lost in her thoughts an owl had flown in Historia forcing down her sudden surprise and excitement.

This must be from the school had Uncle mentioned.

As she took the letter she read it eagerly.The owl flew away.

Dear Ms.Moon,

It is my greatest pleasure to announce that you have been excepted to Hogwarts of Witchcraft and Wizardry. I hope to see you attend.

Sincerely,

Minerva McGonagal

As she read her supply list she saw things she had to leave the Manor for.

Leave the Manor?........YES!!!!

As she was over joyed the sun was up and it shined through the window and Historia welcomed it.

I'm gonna leave the Manor.I'm gonna leave the Manor.

Excited she called Toff who popped in, confused at Historias sudden change of attitude.

"Toff tell Uncle you and I will be off to get supplies at Diagon Alley."

Histora had been to Diagon Alley, but it was so brief she hadn't seen much.

With a confused look she popped away to tell her uncle.

Historia was left to think of all that things she may see, and the witches and wizards she may meet, and the school she would attend.She felt excited to go, excited to leave this rotten Manor.

Finally, maybe this will be good for a change.Away from the Manor, away from HIM.

Away from the painful and unloved memories that filled the Manor. That had been stained with her blood and tears....................................maybe she could even make friends.

**********Diagon Alley*************

Histora walked down Diagon Alley Toff on her tail as much as she wanted to look through every store she had to head to Gringotts first.

Entering she was memorized by the Goblins.Having a few books of magical creatures it made her curious, but she paid attention on hand.As she was walking she wasn't paying attention to where she was going and bumped into something very solid that she fell backwards having Toff fusing over her fallen Mistress.

"Oh dear!!! Aya awright?" said a gruff deep voice.

Looking up Historia was caught of guard by the the very huge....man?Hands bigger than her head and a dark beard that reached his huge belly by his appearance anyone would be afraid, but then again something about him didn't scare her, either that is was that he wasn't attacking her or that he was concern of her well being.Pulling out of her thoughts she quickly stood and bowed slightly.

"I-I'm sorry I wasn't looking to where I was going."

When ever she had got in trouble at the Manor with her Uncle or guests she would have to bow and apologize for disrespecting them.Force of habit.She subconsciously pulled at her long sleeves making sure they didn't roll up.She sorta expected a hit or something.

"Its quite aw'right."The "man" gave a toothy smile which she blushes in embarrassment returned, but returned a small shy one.The goblin in front called him away taking a boy with baggy clothes with him.

As she watched them go the Goblin cleared his throat startling her.She recovered her self quickly.

"I'm here to make a with drawl."

"Name?"

"Historia Moon."

He wrote something down a sneer on his face,"Key?"

Digging into her pocket she gave him the key.

"Follow me please."

As she followed ,but the Goblin stopped and glared at Toff who squeaked and hid behind Historias legs.

"The house elf stays here." he said with a disgusted tone.

Suddenly protective she crossed her arms at such a young age her presence can be menacing when she wanted to protect something.

"Toff comes with,"she looked into the goblins eyes face emotionless but eyes glowing with anger,"will there be a problem with that?"

The Goblin gulped and shook his head.And continued walking on.

"Mistress you didn't ha-"

"I didn't have to Toff,"she looked down at her elf and patted her head,"I wanted to."

And Historia followed the Goblin with a teary eyed,yet happy elf on her tail.

As Historia left her house elf atMadam Malkin's Robes for All Occasions to meet her at Ollivanders her eyes caught sight of a broomstick.

She had only read of brooms in the few books she had and always wanted one.

Nimbus 2000?

Historia signed, One day I'll bye you, she thought.

As she entered Ollivanders she saw the baggy clothed boy she saw with, she guessed, man.And from the look on his face he was miserable.

"Be with you in a minute." yelled a old voice behind the shelfs of wands.

Historia stood there, both of them uncomfortable.Until the boy decided speak.

"H-hello."

"Um-uh hi?"

The boy was strange indeed, hair that looked like a birds neat and clothes that hanged off him.With broken round glassed and deep green eyes.He seemed to gather the courage to hold his hand out and introduce himself.

"I'm Harry.Harry Potter." he said with a smile.

He lifted her spirits and she smiled back slightly, shaking his hand.

"I'm Historia.Historia Moon." she let go.

"Hey,your that girl that bumped into Hadrig." Harry seemed to remember.

Hadrig? Thats his name?

Her cheeks dusted a little red,"Y-yeah that was me sorry about that."

She mentally shakes her head,No emotion.

"Its alright, so you going to Hogwarts to?"he asked

Historia became instantly excited and forced it down, "Yeah you?"

"Yeah, can't wait to learn Magic."He said excited.

"Learn?You don't know some already?"

Historia being taught to use a spell or two at a young age to help when training it was surprising to hear it.

He shook his head,"N-no its all new to me."

"So your a muggle born?" She asked slightly interested.

"Huh???Muggle born?" He said slightly offended not know what a muggle born was.

"It's not a bad thing," quickly trying to defending herself,"its just.........surprising is all."

She rubbed the back of her neck,"I've never met anyone Muggle born before.........I-sorry I'm not use to talking to people away from home."

Calling the Manor her home made her cringe a little.

There was pop behind her and she turned to find Toff holding, from what it looked like for her size, a mountain of boxes.

"Toff?!"

"S-sorry for taking so long Mistress." she said struggling to stay still.

Historia shook her head softly amused,"Here let me help you."

Taking the boxes she tapped them twice and they turned pocket size and she stuffed them in her robe pocket.She turned around to have Potter looking at her with wide eyes.

"What?"

"The boxes they-you-how?"

She shrugged,"Simple wandless spell."

"Brilliant."He said awed.

They both chuckled.

Historia caught sight of the wands in the desk top and she snickered slightly."So no luck yet in finding a wand, huh Potter?"

Harry blushed and scratched the back of his head with a shy smile.

"No I guess none of the wands like me."

Historia smirked at the miserable face he made,"Aw I'm sure he'll find a wand right for you.Can't be that hard."

"Nah,every wand I tried blew up something."

Historia was gonna burst into laughing but quickly covered it with a cough.

"I wonder?" The man from behind the shelf caught their attention as he came out box in hand.

"Maybe this one Mister Potter." Holding out a wand to Harry.

As Harry held the wand something about it hit Historia she felt the wand bond with him she could see it.And from the look on Harry he seemed to feel the bond.

This boy is powerful more powerful then Uncle, she thought gaping life a fish before she shook her head.

"Curious,very curious." said the shop keeper.

"I'm sorry,but what's curious?"Harry asked uncomfortable.
