TW: parental neglect and neglect of health.
Bellatrix was never given as much attention as her two sister, Andie and Narcissa were given but she was still was raised with the finest things in her life even if they were a bit second-rate.
The house elves paid more attention to Bella than her own parents did, making sure she got meals taken up to her room, washing her bedding, etc. That made her grow a bit of a soft spot towards elves but she didn't show it.
Finally, when she was eleven years old, Bellatrix was headed to Hogwarts and the girl was placed in Slytherin.
Bella was relived to placed in Slytherin and watched with pure distaste as her cousin Sirius went into Gryffindor. From there on out, she put as much as distance between them as possible.
She also distanced herself from her sisters and focused on her studies, especially in Potions, DADA and Charms which were her specialities.
As the school years went on, Bella became more and more obsessed with her favorite subjects and aimed to be accepted into Edin so she could use her talents as a hit-wizard-in-training at the most prestigious academy in the world.
Eventually she finished her education and was accepted to train at Edin as a hit wizard.
Her wildest dreams were finally coming true and Bella refused to let anyone get in the way of achieving them.
She was a little disappointed by the fact her sisters and cousin were accepted but she refused to let it drag her down.
Now Bellatrix has passed recruitment and is more confident than ever, but her beliefs seem to be causing a clash with her peers.
