Starr Light

A girl who could not cry,

Will be raised by the Dark One.

But when she is needed home,

She will go back to her family,

And only then will she be happy.

"He is gone Narcassa. But he left us this." Lucius Malfoy said holding a bundle of blankets up for his wife to see. " We are to raise her and never let her go back to her family."

"But Lucius, we have Draco. What are we to do with another child. One who isn't even pureblood!" Narcassa said pushing the blankets back twards her husband. Some of the blankets fell just enough to show the face of a beautiful sleeping baby girl. "She reminds me so much of my cusin. Why must you bring his blood into this house!"

Lucius looked down at the baby. His wife was right. The gorgeous black hair gave it away, she was a Black. Slowly the baby opened her eyes just enough so Lucius could see the awesome green color they posest. "The Dark Lord has told me to raise her, Narcassa!"

Reluctantly Narcassa took the baby into her arms. "If I wasn't mistaken, Lucius, I'd say your going soft!"

They looked at eachother , daring each other with their eyes to break the aquward silence between them. But the silence was broken by a low cry from the next room. Quickly Narcassa went to comfort the baby.

"Leave him Narcassa, Dobby can take care of it." Lucius said walking slowly twards her. "We need to discuse what to do with this little one."

"No, Draco is my son, and he is also yours. Our blood comes before this one!" Narcassa places the baby girl on the table that sat beside her. Not looking back she went to comfort her son. The baby girl twitched in her sleep, moving her left hand into Lucius's view. Around her wrist was a dangaling charm braclet. On it was the Black crest and the baby's name. Starr Light Black. But Lucius ether didn't care or wasn't able to see it.

"Wake up Starr!' Narcassa's voice rang out in the middle of the night. "Draco is sick! Take care of him!"

Starr woke with a start. She hadn't been able to sleep for about three nights now. What her cousin got into she didn't know, she only knew that she had to take care of him before his father came back from work. Lucius Malfoy was the only one she really liked. He was the only one who really treated her like family. If he was home she would have been left in peace and Narcassa would have had the pleasure to look after Draco

"Hurry up you!" Narcassa snaped.

"Sorry." Starr said not meeting her cousin's harsh stare. Draco was sitting up in bed, holding his stomach as green gew flowed from his mouth. He even looked pailer than usual. Narcassa pushed Starr towards the bed.

"I bet its Potter or Weasley!" Draco moaned as Starr sat down on his bed. "I bet they are jinxing me some how!"

"You have to be in view to be jinxed." Starr said holding up a bucket just in time. Draco moaned again and fell backwards as if sitting up had taken all of his strength.

"Oh, Draco are you all right?" Narcassa said standing about five feet away from the bed.

"Yes Mum. I'm alright for now." He said smirking. Narcassa just nodded and quickly exited the room. Starr just rolled her eyes. It seemed that not even Draco's parents liked him very much.

"Don't roll your eyes at me!" Draco said angrily.

"Oh shut up Draco and go back to sleep." Starr reached up and touched Draco lightly on the forehead sending him into a deep sleep.

Starr slowly headed back to her room. She thought of all the things Narcassa would dream up for her to do. How she wished her cousin would treat her better. Ever sense she could remember Narcassa had hated her for looking so much like her father. Shaking the thought out of her head she entered her room and slowly laid down on her bed. Maybe tonight Lucius will be home, and with that thought she fell into a deep sleep. What she didn't know was that Lucius was on his way home and he was bringing news that would change her live forever.
