Phoenix Island was truly a beautiful island, when one truly looked at it.
True, it was just an island. The people who lived upon the island
were simple folk who lived simple lives. They never had any adventures and
never did anything that could be considered wrong. Most of the folk who
lived their were either fishermen or merchants.
It was expect of all the boys, come the age of eleven, to go to the
Great Faerie Goddess, Allure, and she would give each of them a task. Most
of the tasks were quite simple, yet it was how well the boys performed
these tasks that would make Allure decide upon their future. No one dared
to question Allure's decisions, for it was noted that she was very powerful
and, when tempted, she could do terrible thing. Great things, yes, but
terrible.
Take Remus Lupin for example. When he was growing up, he wandered
into Allure's garden, one that was to be strictly forbidden to all. As
accidental as it might have seemed, Allure cursed Remus, making him both
man and wolf–a werewolf. Not only after that, she banished him into the
forbidden forest, where only dark and hateful things lived. No one saw him
after that.
Yet, Allure was also capable of doing great things for a common good.
Bill Weasley, the oldest son of the Weasley clan, when fishing with his
father one morning, came across a boy in the water. Bill jumped out of the
water and rescued the boy. The next morning, the Weasleys' took the boy to
Allure, and she was pleased. She blessed their family, and sent Bill off
to a far away island where he could learn the skills to be a banker.
The boy, whom Bill Weasley saved, was named Harry Potter. An orphan
and a trouble maker, most people treated young Harry as they would a piece
of dirt.
"He's been nothing but trouble since the moment he got here!" They
would say. "Ye should have never pulled him out of the ocean, Bill. Ye
should of let the little twerp die." They would say.
But the Weasley family would hear nothing of the sort. They liked
Harry just as much as Harry liked them. Ron and Harry were best friends
from the moment they met, and Ginny was considered a good friend as well.
Together, the three of them would cause more trouble than the Weasley
Twins, and that was a lot of trouble.
Perhaps, Allure thought one day, while watching Harry, Ron, and Ginny
perform one of their dastardly deeds. Perhaps one day, young Harry will be
given the chance to prove himself. She smiled at the thought. Oh yes, one
day Harry would prove himself. She just hoped it wouldn't happen too soon.

A/N: I don't own Harry Potter. Sorry.
Don't ask me where this came from. It just popped in my head, and wouldn't
leave. I suppose this is what you get when you play The Legend of Zelda:
Wind Waker for GC one million times, mixed with the movie Pirates of the
Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl, plus good, healthy solid Harry Potter
addictions. I'm odd, I know. Please review. It will mean the world to
me!
