I never knew I needed to know you(Willdip)

Prologue

This is sort of an prequel chapter to this book, gives you some things to look for. This a a prequel. Remember that. Let's get started. Narrator unientified.

It didn't take long for me to realize I was...different from the rest of my family. I wasn't as good at magic as my siblings. In fact, when I was really young, I remember overhearing my parents discussing the likelihood of me even having any magic. Those words cut me like a knife. I did, but it was only a small amount, so they gave me an enchanted Sapphire Brooch that gave magic enhanced magic to the wearer. I still have it to this day. I also looked very different from my family. While I've now realized I'm still considered very pale by human standards, I'm much less pale than my family. They all look white as porcelain. Their eyes also look different than mine. My father's pupils look like plus-signs, my mother and all my siblings have oval pupils(it's a dominate gene.) They all have at least somewhat pointed ears and sharp teeth, and I have one of these features, but it's much less exaggerated. And they all have a color that takes up most of their look. My dad has green, my mom has purple, my oldest brother has light purple, my other brothers (twins) have yellow and blue respectively, and my baby sister has amber. Baby sister...wow, I hardly realized that she'd be six now. And my younger older brothers(the twins) would now be (equivalent to) high school students. It's their eye color, hair color, and the color of most of their clothes(except for my mother, who has black hair). I have a "natural" hair and eye color and circle pupils. My hair also grows at a shorter rate, I can't float, and I'm shorter than my family members. My parents and I often got comments and questions when they took me out in public like;

"Is it lost?"

"Is that...a human?"

"must be a bastard child."

"Are you helping this kid find it's family?"

I hate the thought that I may be...human. Ugh, I can't even say it without feeling sick. Humans are savage, self-destructive creatures that choke the life out of things around them. They refuse to even try to see through anyone's viewpoint but they're own and attack their own kind if they look or think differently. Still, I can't help but admire the souls of some...

My siblings seemed to know I was adopted, but they never treated me any differently. They loved me with all their hearts, just like my parents. In every sense other than not being genetically related to them, they are my true family.

I miss them.

I was nursed as a baby by my adopted mother, so I got a bit of magic. I have an enhanced sense hearing and vision, as well as the ability of prophecy. Usually in the form of dreams,but sometimes I just get them randomly.

I wish I could have foretold the attack.

I was only nine when the attack happened. Afterwards, a childless spinster found me, alone and scared in the woods, and took me under her (metaphorical) wing. After a year, when I was ten, she found a photo I was keeping of my first family. I was in tears. I thought that as soon as she found out where I came from, she would have hunters take me away and...and...kill me. But she didn't. She said that I am like family to her and she would always love me. I love her like I did my mother and I will do anything to protect her. Now I reside with her in a small, sleepy town. I worry that she may be killed if anyone finds out my secret. I sometimes sit alone and ask myself the same questions over and over again, though I know I can't answer them.

"Where is my mother?"

"Where is my sister?"

"Where are my brothers?"

and the one that terrifies me the most.

"Are they all dead?"
