Two Little Ghosts

Untitled Part 17

Two Little Ghosts Chapter 16

Where was Harry?

Harry had popped right into a snake's den knowing that Hermione would bypass it as a creepy-crawly area and move on. Harry had always been more comfortable in the darkness. His cupboard never had a working light anyways. He liked the snakes that were in the jungle. He'd been trying to show Hermione that he could not only still speak to snakes but he could hold them to his body as if he was still living.

But then...Hermione had said he was freaky, strange, that she would've hit him if he were any closer to her. She knew that would hurt him, didn't she? She couldn't have had said it purposely, would she? No, that would be cruel and Hermione wasn't cruel. She's his. Hermione and Harry, Harry and Hermione we've always introduced ourselves that way to people. Would Harry just miss his other half? He'd only been light and happy because of Hermione. He had already been more than a few pieces shy of breaking completely before meeting Hermione even just as a ghost. Maybe he was meant to always be alone? to be dark, evil even. Snakes called him theirs and cats always liked him best, especially the black kitties. Death had always surrounded him. But he made those animals live again didn't he? What comes after breaking completely. He knew the reason that he stayed on this realm because his other half--Hermione that is-- was by his side. Where does he go now?

Harry was slipping. His form was flickering in & out. The snake in the den caressed him called him the mercy of life: King of Death. But Harry didn't want to be King of Death. He wanted to stay as a little ghost going on adventures with his Hermione. But he never got what he wanted, did he? He was always alone. At least the darkness never failed him. Slipping so much what's at the end of the tunnel? Would his parents be there? He had never known his parents. He loved the Malfoys. They were so good to him and treated him as someone special just being himself.

A voice was heard in the distance. The voice sounded like Hermione. Did she come back to fully break me? Harry wondered absentmindedly petting the snake. Harry crawled out when Hermione's voice got close. His voice cracked as he asked her, 'Have you come here to fully break me? Have you come to see the truth? I trusted you, Hermione. I love you so much and yet you said those words. The only person who stopped my deterioration from being a full existence in this realm and not breaking completely was you. You were the life that kept me going, are you going to break me to my last pieces?' His form flickered to a crowned skull and a scythe.

Hermione's pale form flickered to darkness that held want and longing. Hermione whispered to Harry, "I never want to leave your side, Harry. I am so sorry for what I said. You told me that you'd only leave my side when I wished it. I know what I said but I don't want to be apart from you ever again. I broke further and faster without you near me as well. I don't want to break completely Harry. What would come after being completely broken? I don't know that and I don't ever want to know. I am yours completely Harry. Do with me as you wish. Just please don't send me back to loneliness and a confined tower. You were my magical prince and now you are my king. I just hope I can make a stand with you? Like a Lady, as a Princess, as a Queen, or simply a maidservant I don't care as long as I can be yours and yours only."

Their forms flickered and broke as one might break an eggshell. Their new forms were still pale and ghostly only they were adults full of power and newly completed selves. They left the forest and ventured to new worlds to explore them and ruin them as they were ruined by the cruelty of human nature. From there on, two little ghosts grew into two much more powerful figures.

The End of Two Little Ghosts!Hello, Darlings!I left the end pretty open-ended so that you Darlings can decide where Harry and Hermione go! I have so much that I'm creating. Will post a book or so about things that are just happening in my life or a list of bad puns that I like or just random things that mark me surprised. Probably post an art book sooner or later. I suck at drawing but practice always (or in most cases) helps make it better. There will not be another main story for a while as I have plain run out of ideas that can make a multi-chapter or a long one-shot. If you want a more fluffy happy ending story I do have those it's not this one though. Hope you enjoyed Two Little Ghosts!As always, Hugs & Kisses, Darlings!--AmuseMe1
