I tremble with anger and shock at what I had just done, never in my life did I think I would ever be able to kill someone, but never did I think I would be so calm after it. Did that make me evil or something? No- I don't know what it made me but I sure as hell did the right thing and I knew it in my heart. There was a certain joy in watching the light leave her eyes, after all... she was responsible for the death of thousands and one in particular that I will never forget.
I looked over at Severus who to my surprise was grinning, I knew how much he despised her. He nodded at me as I gave a weak smile back to him, I still needed to get him out of here- alive. I was beginning to doubt everything... I was acting on instinct alone.
"you killed my most loyal follower" his voice sent a shiver down my spine, at this moment I began to regret what I did.
As he walks over to me, he begins to circle me and without having any time to dodge he slaps me in the face with such force that I collapse onto the ground. I look at Severus who is desperately trying to break the chains he was held in- at that moment... nothing else mattered. I thought back to earlier when I didn't know why I was given these powers or what I was meant to do with them. I did now. I was meant to save him, at any cost.
I throw myself up with full force and swing my wand in the direction of Voldemort, he is sent flying across the air and ends up hitting the wall. I could feel my body turning to fire again, this time I let go and lost all control.
LET HIM GO! I scream as I send waves of fire flying at all the remaining death eaters, I would kill them, I would kill anyone that tried to hurt him.
"k-kill her now, forget the powers! Just KILL her" Voldemort shouts from behind me.
Before I knew It I was surrounded by death eaters, my confidence dropped as they began to close in-
I wouldn't even dare if I were you
I knew that voice.
Severus had broken free of the chains when they were all focused on me.
"Severus- If you get in the way now, I will kill you myself" Voldemort says as he slowly crawls up from the ground.
"I don't care. I'm not going to let you or anyone kill her. Not while I live and breathe" He says with anger in his voice.
"Then I'm afraid, its over for you Severus" he says.
LIKE HELL IT IS! I SCREAM ON THE TOP OF MY LUNGS
"Dani. NOW" Severus yells
I apparate as spells are fired at me from all angles, I see Severus apparate across the room as he fired spells at the death eaters. I had my eyes on Voldemort as he was trying to kill Severus as well as me now. He was getting to close for comfort now- SHIT!
SEVERUS! MOVE! I SHOUT
THERE WAS NO TIME, IT WAS NOW OR NEVER!
I fly straight towards Severus as the flash of green headed right to him. I had one chance to do this.
"AVADA-KEDAVRA" I SHOUT.
I fly in front of Severus just in time, suddenly- everything went cold.
I tumble down to the floor and hit the wall
"d-dani" a voice says with a quiver.
I tried to move but I couldn't- what was wrong with me?
I look up slowly to see Severus eyes flowing with tears, what was he upset about. There was nothing wro-
oh..
I understood now as I looked to my right, I saw Voldemort was dead. I managed to kill him just in time but of course- his spell had to go somewhere.
I was dying.
"I'm sorry. I am so sorry. for everything- I never wanted to hurt you, I would give anything to be the one to die, to take your place my love" Severus says through his tears.
"don't you dare say that. listen-"
I struggled to get my words out, I feared I didn't have long left at all
"s-stay with me dani please" Severus says cradling me in his arms
"I promised you I would never let anyone hurt you. I wasn't going to break that promise ever, Severus... I love you. I love you so-much. you made my life something worth living, i will... always...love- you" I say as I slowly fade.
Severus's POV
and just like that, I held her in my arms for the last time. She was cold to the touch already. I was trying my best to keep it together- but I just couldn't. I had just lost the only person that had made me feel more alive than I had ever felt before, I thought after losing Lily that would be it. I would never be able to love... then I met her.
My tears were streaming down my face as I cradled her for one last time, she had given her life to save mine. It mattered not what other people thought of her, to me she was and always will be a hero.
In the moment, I slowly lifted her body onto the ground and placed her down gently. I walked over to the outside of the astronomy tower and looked up at the sky.
"you will always be my forbidden spell, dani. The spell that healed a broken man" I say as I raise my wand to the sky, It's tip illuminated. I would raise my wand for her, every night. I would be on her side in life and in death.
Always.
