Chapter One of 'Like the Sky'- Prologue
Oct. 12th, 2018 10:07 pmTitle: Like the Sky
Disclaimer: J. K. Rowling and associates own these characters. I am writing this story for fun and not profit.
Rating: R (for violence)
Content Notes: Violence, gore, torture, AU (Voldemort wins), minor character death, prejudice, manipulation, angst, eventual Voldemort mentors Harry
Pairings: None in the foreground, some background canon couples
Summary: AU. Harry Apparates at nine years old and attracts the attention of a Death Eater who takes him into a whole, new, dangerous world—one where the Lord Voldemort rules and his parents fought on the wrong side of the war, but also one where he is valued and taught to use his magic and placed forever above people such as the Dursleys. Harry grows up neither Dark nor Light in a world where many things interest him more than rebellion.
Author’s Notes: This fic will be updated irregularly, whenever I complete a chapter. Its title comes from a quote from George Orwell’s 1984: “Any kind of organized revolt against the Party, which was bound to be a failure, struck her as stupid. The clever thing was to break the rules and stay alive all the same. He wondered vaguely how many others like her there might be in the younger generation: people who had grown up in the world of the Revolution, knowing nothing else, accepting the Party as something unalterable, like the sky, not rebelling against its authority but simply evading it, as a rabbit dodges a dog.”
