Harry Potter: I Was Never Meant to Win

Himari97
Ten years under the Dursleys’ roof stripped Alexandra Potter of warmth, trust, and any lingering affection she once held for family. What remained was a sharp tongue, a guarded heart, and a worldview shaped by neglect rather than hope. Friendless and cynical, she learned early that kindness was a luxury rarely afforded to her. On her eleventh birthday, a letter from a magical school offers what seems like an escape—but salvation is never simple. Magic does not erase scars, and Alexandra is no wide-eyed dreamer. A devoted reader of The Lord of the Rings, she understands too well that every world has its darkness, every journey its cost, and every hero their breaking point. This is not a story of innocence found—but of power claimed, shadows embraced, and a girl who refuses to be weak ever again.

As time passed, heroes began to arise as their power, achievements and courage for placing their lives on the line to save the innocent inspired many as those with an Aspect dreamed of becoming a symbol of peace for our world. I, Rai Shinsei, was one of them as I would hear many stories of heroes from the townsfolk, although, the source of my inspiration was from my two loving parents, who were idolized by the townsfolk as their strength and kindness left me captivated, but despite my dreams, fate had a different future in store for me as tragedy soon occurred, changing my life forever. On my sixth birthday, I witnessed a catastrophe. My once tranquil hometown, which housed kind hearted souls was ravaged by none other than a hero, whose destruction knew no bounds as any structure within his sight was obliterated while every being within my hometown was mercilessly slaughtered. The screams and cries of those I once knew left me in a trepidatious state, but my nightmare was far from over as the remaining survivors was none other than my parents, who were forced to say their goodbyes as the hero killed them right before my eyes, sparing only me and on that day, I was never interested in becoming a hero anymore. Selling my soul to vengeance, I made a vow. To destroy the Hero Association. Although, everything changed once I was forced to enroll into a place I would have never imagined. A Hero Academy.
