Chapter 73

Previously on Chapter 72

My heart feels like it's been torn out of my chest. I've been trying so hard to protect him. But even so... I failed. Because now. The man I love with all of my heart... he's gone.

Cedric is gone...

-Unleashed My True Self-

Y/N P.O.V

I gently lay Cedric down. I clench my hands into a tight fist. I look up at the Death-eater that threw the dagger at Cedric. He looks back at me with a smirk on his face.

"You will pay for what you've done..." I growled out in anger. I can see the slight fear in his eyes. Then he turns around and instantly runs away.

Out of the corner of my eye, I can see Harry chasing a woman. I turn to look at Professor Lupin. He was holding Harry before he break away from his grasp. "What happened?" I asked. "Sirius died..." he said. I let out a shaky gasps as I turn to look at the woman Harry chased.

I recognize her as one of the Prisoner that managed to escaped from Azkaban. Bellatrix LeStrange. She's one of the worst and deadly Death-eater. Harry can't fight her on his own. She too dangerous. I notice the man that killed Cedric also runs with her. Without wasting anytime, I chase after them as well.

I turn around the corner and notice Harry stands in front of LeStrange who seems to have fallen over. I turn to the man, as he keeps smirking despite the obvious fear in his eyes.

"What could you possibly do? You have no wand..." he said. I let out a growl and lift my hand. I take off my eyepatch, revealing my rainbow colored eye.

He points his wand at me. I'm raise my hand and points it at him. He got send to the wall and land on the ground with a loud thud. He looks at me wide-eyed.

"You have no wand with you. How did you do that?" He said. I smirk and walks towards him. "I can do a lot more than you think..." I said. I raise my hand, with my palm pointing at him. He starts screaming in pain as I use my true magic on him.

That's enough... remember who you are, Y/N. You are not a murderer... a voice echoed in my head. I gasp out of shock and snap out. I drop my hand as the man breathe heavily. I walk towards him and grab his wand, snapping it in half.

I turn to look at Harry. He seems to be taking with himself. Then suddenly, someone came out of his body. The man have pale skin, bald... and the most noticeable is he have no nose.

I walk towards Harry and stands next to him. "Who is he?" I said. "Voldemort..." Harry said, glaring at the man. This makes me glare at the man. I can feel anger growing within me once again.

"You're Voldemort... because of you and your stupid Death-eater. I lost Cedric..." I said. "Cedric? Ahh... the boy I killed in the graveyard..." He said, smirking at me. The man walk towards him.

"My Lord... the boy was alive. I killed him... he have some sort of protection with him" he said. "What do you mean protection?" Voldemort said. "A necklace. From her..." the man said, pointing at me.

Voldemort turns to look at me. "Ahh... I see now. You are the Duchanne girl..." he said, smirking at me. "She's powerful, My Lord. She can conjure a spell without using a wand. She broke mine" the man said, whimpering slightly.

He turns to look at me. "Rainbow orbs. That's odd. I have never seen anyone with that before..." he said. I just roll my eyes at him.

"Enough talking... let's fight!" I said. I point my hand at him. He quickly points his wand at me. Our spell collided. I take a few steps closer, still pointing my hand at him. This leaves him no choice but to back away. But eventually, my spell overpowers his.

I can hear footsteps. I turn around to see Professor Dumbledore with a bunch of people. I use all of my strength, until I manage to defeat him.

"The Dark Lord has returned!" One of them said in terror. Voldemort quickly casts a spell at Professor Dumbledore, who fight back with ease. This leaves Voldemort no choice but to leave.

I breathe heavily, and fall on my knees. Harry runs towards me. My sight blurry. Along with the pain of losing Cedric is unbearable. I choke a sob as I start to cry once again.

Harry pulls me closer, wrapping his arms around my form. I lean my head on his shoulder as I start to cry harder. I've been trying so hard to protect Cedric. In the end, I still lose him.

Time-skip

What happened back then was a secret. So naturally everyone knew. Now they know I'm not a normal witch. That I can conjure magic without using wand. This makes them question me... some of them even conclude that I'm the reincarnation of Merlin.

I'm sitting in the Dining Hall, sitting by myself as the trio have something to do. Well... I'm not exactly alone. There's a lot of students is gathering around me, asking me question after question. But the most stand out question from the rest is. Whether I'm the Reincarnation of Merlin.

But I don't respond to any of them. My mind keeps on focusing on Cedric... and how I didn't manage to save him this time. I guess the necklace only works for spells... and he was killed because of a bloody dagger! I should have given him a stronger charm.

They keep asking questions. But one of them made me froze in my spot. "What happened to Cedric? I thought the necklace suppose to protect him" one of them said.

I look down as I feel tears pooling up in my eyes. I hear a deep growl of annoyance, then I hear rapid footsteps coming towards me. "Go away! Move! Leave!!" the person said. I look up to see Draco. He glare at the students that surrounds me. This makes them scatter away.

"Come with me, Y/N..." he said, offering me a hand. I grab his hand and stand up. We walk away from the Dining Hall. I just keep my head down as I let him leads the way.

When we are finally far from the other students, I instantly burst into tears and starts crying. Draco turns to me and pulls me into a hug. I just wrap my arms around his torso, sobbing into his chest.

"Shh... it's okay, Y/N. I'm right here..." he whispered in my ear. "H-He's gone, D-Draco... Cedric's g-gone" I cried out. "I know... it's not your fault..." he said, in a soft voice.

I pull away and look at him with teary eyed. "It is!! If only I'm strong enough... I would've saved him. I'm so useless..." I cried out. He cups my cheeks softly. "No... don't say that. You're not useless, Y/N. You've tried everything you could..." he said. I just cry even more. He lets out a sigh and pulls me closer.

"Now everyone knew my true ability... they're going to treat me differently now. Looks like I'll never be normal..." I said. He pulls away and looks at me. "Y/N... you're amazing. Why would you ever want to be normal?" He said. His words reminds me of what Ethan used to say to my sister.

Before Lena turns half dark, she was just like me. All she wanted was to be normal. But Ethan taught her how to accept herself... and gradually she grow to love herself. Would I be able to do the same?
