Five year-old Historia kept dodging her uncles kicks.Getting slower and slower he got faster and faster.Out of no where he had unsheathe his sword.Fear filled her small body and she went dead still,but her uncle didn't stop and he slashed cleanly from her shoulder to her waist forcing her back with a cry in pain.

Flames of horrible agony coursed her being and she sobbed a pitiful sob.Blood formed a puddle around ,as her Uncle stared down at her with no emotion.

The scene changed with a swirl and she found her self in the last place she wanted to be.A dungeon dark and cold, chained up from the ceiling with rusted thick chains covered in her own blood,sweat and tears.She was being punishment for disrespecting the guests.

"You dare disrespect this house hold."

"I-I'm s-s-sorry I d-didn't me-."

"Silence!!!"And he struck her bare back once more. Swishing his wands in the air his magic striking her leaving marks in its wake.

She screamed, her arms strained as gravity pulled her down.Tears fell as flames of pain coursed though her.She struggled but the hits only came harder.Her throat felt raw from her cries, and sound of her own skin ripping sickened her.

Twisting and turning Historia burst up from the bed drench in sweat,and she immediately felt sick.Leaning over her twin bed she gagged but nothing came out, her breath came in gasps.She looked around the dark room completely forgetting she was at Hogwarts,but thought she was back at the Manor.

Onyxs soft voice whispered in her head,Calm down Historia it was just a dream.

Still leaning over she gripped the sheets that her knuckled turned white and she took deep breaths sitting straight.Tears unwilling filled her eyes but didn't fall.Shaking hand reach behind and she traced the thick scars on her back that lay beneath her sleeping gown. Historia raked her hands through her sweaty hair caging her head with her arms.

Historia?

She flinched at the forgotten presence,tears slowly fell down her pale skin mixing with sweat.

Historia,his voice filled with pity as he slithered around her neck and nuzzled her cheek,its okay child its okay.Your okay.

"Onyx,"Her voice cracked.
