                   ⚠️Death, violence⚠️

i always have been entirely fascinated by the face of death. the many different ways to die; some less peaceful than others.

drowning.

i always thought it was a peaceful way to leave this world; surrounded by water- just letting go. how very wrong i was. not inhaling until right before you black out, resisting the natural urge to open your mouth when your head is pounding, letting the water eventually fill your lungs- stopping the pain in your head. the last few seconds of your life in complete harmony; leaving this earth with nothing but the sound of water engulfing your body. silence.

it was the complete opposite of peaceful. i knew that now. i was drowning; in my own thoughts and feelings. watching the only family i had left, leave me in this reality alone. gone. my father. my own blood. god, it was torture. i couldn't even process what had happened. time had stopped- frozen. staring at the empty archway, falling to my knees, screaming as if my life depended on it. i felt arms wrapped around me; holding me in place as i pounded my balled up fists into the ground as hard as i could- tears staining my face. at this moment in time, i couldn't care who had ahold of me. this couldn't be happening. no, no it wasn't. i refused to believe it. this wasn't real at all. i would turn around in a minute and my dad would be stood there, holding his arms out for me. i heard a heart wrenching scream and it was like time had continued again. that scream broke all of the deafening silence that i was so trapped in. i escaped from the hold on me, realising it was ron. he tried to grab me again but i was already at harry's side; pulling him into my chest and cradling him, as he cried too.

something behind me caught his eye- bellatrix. that bitch. she smiled and ran out of the room; me following closely after her. " i killed sirius black! i killed sirius black! ha ha! he's coming to get me! oh he's coming to get me ha ha!" she cackled as i chased her through the lobby of the ministry. before i could stop myself, i had my wand aimed at her and was shouting a curse i never thought i would. " crucio!". she let out a pained scream as red shot out of my wand- straight into her. i heard harry run in and he grabbed my arm and threw himself in front of me- shielding me from what she might do next. i felt a cold breeze of wind behind me as i grabbed harry's arm when i saw a figure emerging out of thin air. voldemort. i knew harry's scar was hurting him, it was clear but he wouldn't show it. not to the dark lord. harry spun around and kept me behind him. they were now facing each other and harry raised his wand before voldemort swiped his hand in the air and it flew out of reach. green flames lit up the side of me as dumbledore stepped out of one of the floo network shoots. " how foolish of you to come here tonight, tom. the aurors are on their way-" he spoke before the bald man interrupted him. " by which time i shall be gone. and you, shall be dead ". they both raised the wands to each other as bellatrix ran into a shoot and disappeared. dumbledore pushed harry and i aside as green and red streams met in mid air, sending sparks everywhere. voldemort tried directing some to the wall that we were pushed against but failed to hit us.

they fought for some time which resulted in voldemort trying to send a blazing fire to us whilst dumbledore blocked it off and tried drowning him with a ball of water. harry and i were redirected to the space behind our headmaster as voldemort suddenly burst his arms open with a yell as all the glass in the ministry shattered and sped towards us. dumbledore put a shield around us just in time but some of the glass still came through. voldemort resolved into a cloud of sand and disappeared until harry suddenly dropped to the floor, sounding like he was choking. " harry! " i screamed rushing down to his side. he suddenly looked up at dumbledore with the most sinister look in his eyes and started to speak. it wasn't harry. it wasn't his voice; it was a deeper, darker voice. " you've lost old man ". harry screamed as he threw his head back and his breathing got louder and out of control before dumbledore spoke to him calmly. " harry, it is not how we are alike. it's how we are not " but at this point, harry was trying to push himself up as he grunted screamed again. he collapsed fully onto the floor again as hermione, ginny, hermione, ron and neville came in and saw us. harry looked at them and i knew, that at this moment; he was thinking of his friends. he started to speak, it was his voice again but it's like he was talking to himself. " you're the weak one. and you'll never know love, or friendship. and i feel sorry for you! ". he screamed as he was flipped over onto his back and small particles of his clothing flew up into the air as sand surrounded him, creating a cylinder shield around him. voldemort appeared again and walked over to him before the minister and aurors arrived. " he-he- he's back " fudge breathed in shock as voldemort disapparated, leaving harry laid there with dumbledore.

" y/n?" ron asked, walking forward as i got up and ran to them; ron wrapping his arms around me in a hug. " y/n it's okay, you're okay. you're safe ". " he's gone, i'm never going to see him again " i whispered, trying to stop my tears forming. " i'm so sorry " hermione whispered as she joined and hugged me too. when harry had been checked over, dumbledore explained that he was going to activate a portkey which would send us straight back to the gryffindor common room whilst he stays and helps clean up with mess and explain what had happened. " grab hold in 3...2...1 " harry said quietly as we all touched the old and ruined boot. we spun around before we let go and the bright colour of red surrounded me and i knew, that we was home.
