That evening, Jade Fylan stood outside the Three Broomsticks, looking out at nothing in particular as she lit her second cigarette since she began her break from her job as bartender. She looked at nothing in particular because she had a lot on her mind. Jade's brain was like a cluttered walk-in closet with damaged walls. So many horrid memories, so much stress and pain tarnished it. Jade was someone who ran on little sleep and food as most of the time her bad memories and nightmares prevented her from enjoying either.
Jade had little going for her. Her abusive pureblood parents caused her and her twin brother, Ronan, to leave home, she barely passed Hogwarts which didn't give her a large number of career options, and now she worked nights as a bartender, living on tips. The only thing she had was a dream that she and her brother could save enough money to move to the United States... or really anywhere away from the United Kingdom, magical or non-magical. She had a good bit put back, but she still had a long way ago. And often it seemed that every time money was saved, something happened and it had to be used.
Jade finished her cigarette and sighed as she looked at a nearby clock. It was time to go back into work. Fortunately it was a slower night and she didn't have to deal with a lot of the Hogwarts students that would be coming in soon. Still, she wanted the night to be over so she could meet up with her brother and... well do something. She and Ronan were like two twisted peas in a pod, and anytime she was with him, she was happy.
Jade stepped behind the bar and awaited the next customer, hoping it wasn't some idiot or sleazeball hoping to get a date with her.
THE DARK LADY
