1 The boy who lived meets the prince

It was a bright morning except that it sucked. I've been living in Wool's orphanage as long as I remember, people here are always on edge don't know why but there's something off about this place. Kids here always talk about someone named Tom riddle the sister here always freaks out at the name. Oh and by the way I forgot to introduce myself I am ACE SALVATORE now I know, you will ask me I have such a good name then why am I living in a orphanage, honestly I don't know but hey you have to stay optimistic right who knows I might become the most powerful guy. So back to the story, you know in orphanages there's an unwritten rule you have to be powerful or the other kids are going to eat you alive, well you know there's always a big bad bully in these types of orphanages who has his minions to do the dirty work his name is Brook by the way. I'm living here for quite a long so I Know him pretty well and according to my observation of 10 year's or something he's the most coward guy with the help of his minions he always used to steal our food and that's how he's so fat and I personally hate the guy. Now you will ask me why am telling you about him he's just a disgusting creature and that's true but today is July 24 now there's nothing special about this day except that I'm going to run away yes, you heard me right. I'm tired of these life we don't even get to eat properly and someone need to give Brook a lesson and I have taken the responsibility upon me oh I'm so great but either way I'm going out tonight and I'm giving Brook the best dinner ever. I stole some baking soda from the kitchen, okay-okay all of it, but what can I do I want to be remembered here. We took our turns and took the foods from the table to be honest it wasn't much just some tomato soup and two breads, I ate one bread and drank some soup then poured all the baking soda in the soup and as usual Brook came to take food from the little kids he grabbed a scrawny kid by the collar and pushed him by the wall and was telling him to give his bread,now usually I wouldn't have bothered but I might as well save the kid I got up and said "hey Brook, I'm not hungry take this and leave the kid alone" he gave that kid one more push and came towards me and God's he smelled so bad. he snatched the tray from me and was showing it in his mouth. I got up and left for my room which I shared with three others. I got in my room and wore my beated dirty Navy blue hoodies which some nice guy threw at orphanage and it luckily didn't fit brook and I had about 50 cents which I got by helping the old lady by helping her reach her home with two heavy bags. I don't know how I pulled it off but there's a feeling which I can't explain like power surging through me it's sort of uneasy sometimes but hey that got me money. I heard voices down below and knew that this was my cue to get out the soda is working. I silently got down the floor and crossed the dining area where all the kids were surrounding brook while he grabbed his stomach and his face pale I smoke at him one last time and got out now don't get me wrong you shouldn't try this no not the baking soda but running away at London at night its cold too cold but now I'm free so I'll be fine. I was just walking around the City Haven't seen much about it but boy London is beautiful. I was just passing a bridge when I saw a boy of my age sitting under the bridge I thought let's have a talk he had black messy hair and green eyes and the boy couldn't get any thinner after scanning him I said "hey, nice place to spend here" I must have scared him cause his face went pale and then anger flashed on his face then he said "if you want money you're wasting your time I have none" I smiled and said "calm down boy I'm not here for your money, I just want to spend the night here if that's okay with you" he nodded though he was on his guard around me after minutes of silence which seemed like eternity I finally said "would you mind helping me with the fire?" he nodded again. After a few failed attempt we finally succeeded and the boy finally smiled at me and then I returned the smile, then we exchanged the names and our stories. It seems the boy's name was Harry Potter and he too ran away from his uncle's house from private drive two days ago the boy sure came a long way he told me about the beatings and work their. I felt bad for him after he got comfortable he finally started to joke and smile normally. He seemed like a nice guy. We spent days under that bridge and trusted each other and we worked at a bakery near by the owner of we that bakery was a Lady she took pity on us and offered us a job for one dollar a day with food, we gladly took that offer today was 30 July and tommorow was Harry's birthday I bought him a present or I bought us a present I asked the lady to buy us a rings with some chains which we can put around our neck and gave her all the money I had she smiled and ruffled my hair and agreed.
