The Survivor: Year One-Year Seven

Chapter 6 'The Boggart'

Shade POV

Days passed till Shade found herself in DADA class with Professor Lupin and a shaking wardrobe. Questions were asked before a line was formed, but Shade found herself the 4th person up. Neville went up first, His fear was losing his friends (No longer afraid of Professor Snape). Hermione went second, her fear was gaining a bad grade (And possibly getting kicked out) and Blaise went 3rd, his fear was turning into his mother, but as Shade went up, something odd happens, the Boggart changed into many different people, all that she thought as friends, which wasn't that much, and people she had come to recognize as allies to her, people she knew that was dead and those who she knew were alive, but the boggart showed them dead, and they were all screaming at her that she either had killed them or was going to kill them and that what causes Shade to freeze as panic began rising up, memories flashed through her as her magic flared up, causing her wand to regain it mind, raising up and destroying the boggart, cause wood and stone to break, causing dust to be puffed into the air, screams of the students were barely heard by her, as she ran out of the room, ignoring her friends and professor calls...

She found herself in the woods, the echos of the Boggart still in her head. She wanted to destroy something, to slashed away her rage and fear. She pulled out her small knife, wondering if it was easier to try and end her life after what seems like a thousand times, truly, there ought to be no one who truly would miss her. Her screams broke through her lips as she stabbed the tree trunk next to her, it was getting hard to breathe, it felt as if someone's hands had grabbed the inside of her throat. She staggered backward, only stopping when her back hit another tree trunk and she slid down...

Hermione POV

Rage course through her, was it normal to want to tear apart the professor limb by limb for introducing that damn thing to Shade? Her wand hand twitched as she watched the professor unfroze to run after Shade, but it was probably too late, she was probably hidden, and if anything, Shade had gotten really good at hiding if she doesn't want to be found...

Shade POV

She doesn't know how long she been out here, stewing in her miserable thoughts, thinking what the hell she did, she was silently screaming at herself that she should be stronger, that it was wrong to show weakness. But she can't help but be scared whenever she thought of that thing, and how she did agree with the damn thing. She was the cause or going to be the cause of everyone's demise, she had that effect on people... Getting too close and they end up dead. She hugged herself, pulling up her knees to herself...
