— a misunfortunate find. —
Regulus is just sitting there. Staring at the floor as his mother Walburga yells at him. He doesn't even know if he can call her his mother. All of a sudden Walburga pulls out her wand and it fades to black. Regulus wakes up in his brother,Sirius blacks arms.
"Siri..?"
Regulus had muttered. He was in obvious pain.
"Reggie..! How are you feeling.? "
His brother Sirius looks down at the boy resting in his arms.
"I feel like shit."
Regulus had sat up from Sirius's arms. Looking at him.
"Reggie what happened.? I found you unconscious on the floor."
Regulus had froze. He doesnt know what happened. The only thing he remembered was it fading it black. All of a sudden he had gotten a flash back
*FLASH BACK*
Walburga is shown yelling at the rather small looking boy.
"you disgust me Cassiopeia."
She says. She then raises her hand and slaps regulus. Regulus is just standing there. Not doing anything. He cant. Walburga would probably kill him. Not like he hasn't already been wishing for death. Living here has caused regulus pain and trauma. Walburga pulls out her wand.
"Crucio."
*END OF FLASHBACK*
"Reggie? You ok.?" Sirius says staring at his younger brother who looks as if he was frozen
"Mother used the Crucio curse on me again."
This has been happening ever since regulus was a child. Whenever they showed emotion or did something out of line they would get punished. Thats what they've grown up with. And thats the knowledge that will be stuck in regulus's mind.
"That old hag."
Sirius says. Eyes filling with anger. Sirius was about to storm off snd argue with his mother but regulus stopped him.
"Siri don't."
Regulus says. Still weak from the curse. He didn't want Sirius to get punished. Their mother was already in a bad mood regulus didn't want something terrible to happen to his older brother.
"Fine."
Regulus looked at Sirius
"Could you walk me back to my room?"
Regulus says still looking at Sirius
"Of cause reggie! "
"Thank you."
Sirius and Regulus had left to go to Regulus's room. Sirius held him with one arm while helping regulus to walk to his room.
"Ok we are here. Bye reg!"
"Bye siri."
Regulus stumbles into his room and the first thing he does is he heads to his in bathroom
*TW! SH & A p; SMALL PANIC ATTACK*
Regulus rolled up his sleeve revealing cuts and bruises. He picked up the blade that was in a small box and started to push the blade into the skin in straight lines. It didn't take long for the blood to appear. Regulus ignored the blood pouring out from the cuts and continued to make more. He placed the blade back into the small box and ran his arm under the water to wash the blood away. He looked at the new scars he had just created.
" stupid stupid stupid..! "
* TW! ENDING : reg just went to the bathroom and cut himself *
Regulus muttered. As he walks to his bedroom he gets out a fresh pare of robes. He starts to change. He wasn't wearing his binder as it was drying from being washed When he put his shirt on,kreacher had appeared. Revealing the shredded binder. Regulus stood there in horror. His only binder was in front of him. shredded to pieces. Not even magic could fix it.
" Mistress ordered me to give it to you mistress Celine "
Kreacher the house elf has never called him Celine before. Regulus stood there frozen then he finally said something
" you may leave now Kreacher. "
Regulus muttered in a low tone of voice. He couldn't even look at Kreacher. The only thing he was looking at is the shredded binder.
" As you wish Mistress Cassiopeia "
And just like that kreacher had walked out of regulus's room. Regulus felt his breath shorten and shorten to the point it was hard to breathe. He tried to regulate his breathing but it didn't work. All of a sudden he was stumbling to the bathroom looking at himself in the mirror
" why cant i be a boy! Why cant i just be normal ! "
Regulus managed to mutter. He looked at the mirror seeing tears fill his eyes. He wanted the pain to stop. His breath shortened it became harder to breathe every time. His whole body started to shake. He stumbled back into his bedroom and collapsed. Leaving a massive bang.
" Reggie? Are you ok.? "
A faint voice appeared. There was a knock on Regulus's door, but no answer from Regulus. The door flung open and it was Sirius. He was in horror when he saw his little brother on the floor unconscious. And next to him was the shredded binder. Sirius knew his mother had something to do with this. Sirius always knew his mother hated Regulus because he was trans. Regulus was meant to produce a child and get married when he leaves hogwarts. An hour has passed. Sirius was still in his little brothers room.
" siri..? "
A weak voice had said. It was Regulus. He was finally awake.
" reggie! What happened? And who did this to your binder ? "
" mother.. "
Sirius eyes was filled with violence and anger. He hated his mother but to go that low that was the final straw.
" Siri don't do anything please.. "
" fine but if- "
Sirius was cut off by the sound of their mother's yelling. She was angry once again.
" CASSIOPEIA GET DOWN HERE RIGHT NOW. "
Regulus was scared he wanted his older brother to go with him but Sirius couldn't. Regulus got up and went downstairs. seeing his mother holding a book. Regulus took a closer eye at it and it was his journal..
