Third Person's P.O.V


Dawn woke up with a searing pain around her, her body feeling broken, but a warm sensation of her friends love from her hand kept her warm inside. She heard a voice-broken "Oooh" of singing and felt a tear fall onto her arm, she knew it was Cat, and hated hearing how much pain she's in --- of course, --- and she didn't know if she was the only one here, and if so, Great!

If not.

Well.

Dawn's gonna be embarrassed.

Dawn knew there would be more people then Cat because she had friends and does not expect Harry to be there because he's probably dealing with Umbridge. Fuck it Dawn thought

It hurt her lungs to do so and it hurt to move and it made her heart rate go after but she finally said "Cat...Harry..."

It hurt once more that she tried to move because she squirmed a little and it felt like her body was burning, it hurt to open her eyes, everything was burning.

"Dawn?" Said the broken voice of Skylar.

She finally opened her eyes, her vision blurry for a minute, when it settled down and she could see Cat, Draco, Delilah, Skylar, Pansy, and Harry... A Groan escapped her lips as she tried to move again and Cat held her hand tighter, stopping her from moving.

"Slow down, Dawn, you were dead you need to relax."

"How the hell can I relax, Cat!?" Dawn snapped at her, no more sadness in her, but Anger bubbling inside her guts getting tired of this life she's living. Everyone flinched when Dawn snapped, they weren't expecting thing. "Cat, I've almost died the millionth time since I've lived this stupid life! How can I just relax knowing there's people out there who can almost kill me! Here, my house, anywhere!"

"Dawn," Harry murmured.

"No, don't even start with me that "Your worth living" because I'm not! If God is giving me the destiny to live a life where I keep on dying and reliving that must be a sign I am meant to die!"

"Miss. Michealson." Said a stern voice and they all look to see Professor McGonagall and Professor Snape. "Can you leave us with Miss. Michealson."

"But ---"

"Please, Miss. Lovegood." McGonagall said they all nodded and left but Harry stayed behind for a bit staring at Dawn but she didn't look at him she was looking to the floor, anger on her face, but also Harry could see she's hurting. He hesitated but soon left, hoping Dawn would be okay. He just wanted to hold her in his arms again.


Professor McGonagall came closer to her bed as Snape went on the other side. Dawn didn't understand to why the Head of Gryffindor House was here to see her if she isn't even Head of her house, it made sense to why Snape was here, he's been very protctive of Dawn the moment she arrived in Slytherin.

"Miss. Michealson." McGonagall said.

"What," Dawn growled.

"We understand your anger to you dying a lot and how much you've been traumatized by your adoptive parents, and many other students. But you must tell us how you're still here."

"I was given a choice." Dawn murmured angrily. "My Mum and Dad stopped me from dying by putting me in a land between life and death. They asked me if I would like to join them and my brother but I declined."

"It comes with a cost though, Miss. Michealson."

"What do you mean, Professor?" Dawn asked, confused.

"We just got a letter saying your Adoptive father has died by a heart attack." Snape told her and Dawn's eyes widen and fear washed over her. Dawn hoped her adoptive mother would not blame her for her husbands death...but Dawn knew somehow the women would find a way to how.

Dawn swallowed hard. "You mean...he passed away?" She said shakily, the anger now gone.

"Yes, Dawn." Professor McGonagall said and Dawn felt tears weld up in her eyes not out of sadness but out of fear. "There will be a funeral but it's a low chance for Headmistress Umbridge to let you go."

"What do you mean 'Headmistress Umbridge'?" Dawn asked.

McGonagall explained to Dawn that Dumbledore has left the school with Fawks so he wouldn't go to Azkaban and has taken the cover for Harry not to be expelled but Dawn has detention with Umbridge, but that didn't worry Dawn. What worried her is that the greatest man Dawn knows is gone and Dawn can't be safe.


McGonagall and Snape left and Dawn lays on the bed with a groan, her insides hurting like someone has put a fire in her insides. Minutes later Harry entered to see Dawn and he came over to her bed and Dawn looked over to him with the expression of fear. "Dawn, what happened? You look like you've seen a ghost." Harry said. Dawn looked in a mirror to see she's very pale and her crystal blue eyes showed fear and terror. Dawn looked over to Harry and shook her head. "Harry," Dawn choked, gulping down a sob. "My adoptive father passed away,"

Harry's eyes widen at these news. "What? How?"

"He had a heart attack because of me."

"Dawn, how could you give a man many miles away from you a heart attack?"

"I was in a land between life and death and my Mum and Dad showed up and gave me a choice to join them or go back to living. I obviously chose the live. But they didn't tell me is that it was a cost to someone else's life...That was my adoptive father." Dawn explained and Harry's eyes widen but then softened seeing a tear fall from Dawn's eyes. "Harry, I'm scared my adoptive mother will...will..."

"Shush, it's okay." Harry shushed her softly and Dawn buried her face in his chest crying her eyes out and Harry just held her there as Dawn cried her eyes out as he whispered soothing things to her.


A/n: How long has it been since I've wrote a chapter to this? Anyways. Yay! I'm back to updating! My YouTube channel isn't done yet but my brother is busy and my life is busy too so that's delayed.

Also! I would've updated earlier but I made a big update for my Percy Jackson/Charmed Fanfiction My Whitelighter Sister Who's Charmed and it was two chapters of the book.

I am pretty proud of this chapter, too, and have been debating if I should kill Dawn's adoptive father then soon decided I should. I hope you liked the idea because I do.


Hope you liked the chapter, Minion!

Love ya!

Byee!!
