----------------------------------------------

We climb through the rubble of the castle and make our way to the great hall, where everyone has gathered. Harry pushes open the doors to reveal a small bustle of people. Slowly, I walk into the hall, worried about what I might see.

We make our way over to where he rest of the Weasley family has gathered. As I get closer, I see Molly and George kneeling beside a cot. Ron quickly lets go of my hand and runs over to Molly, tears streaming down his face.

I slowly walk closer and the worst possible sight meets my eyes.

NO! OH GOD NO!

Fresh tears quickly fall down my cheeks as I stare into the unseeing eyes of Fred Weasley.

I kneel down beside George and let out a sob. One of my best friends, gone! How is this possible?!?

Tears slide down my cheeks and I hug Fred's body. I let out another sob, and I hear it echo. George is sobbing like he's never cried before.

I look over at him and hug him. He hugs be back tightly and we sob into each other's shoulders. We just stay like that for a while, hugging and mourning the loss of our best friend.

*************************************
About 5 minutes pass. I'm still in George's arms, tears smeared across my face, when a pair of strong, loving arms slowly help me to my feet and pull me close. I bury my face into Ron's chest and a fresh batch of sobs escape my mouth.

He strokes my hair and whispers into my ear. Slowly I calm down and look up at Ron. His cheeks are tearstained and there are still tears swimming in his sky blue eyes.

I look over Ron's shoulder and see Seamus and Neville sitting on a bench, looking at an empty cot. I start to panic. Where's Olivia? Why isn't she with them? She's supposed to be with them!

I break out of Ron's arms and run over to where Seamus and Neville are sitting. "Hey." I say. "Hi....." Neville says quietly, while Seamus just looks away, looking hurt.

"Guys, what happened? Where's Olivia? Please tell me she's just in the bathroom!" I say, my voice catching in m throat. "We're not exactly sure where she is." Neville replies, still extremely quietly. "W-what do you mean?" I ask, tears filling my eyes.

Neville sighs and looks over at Seamus. "It's my fault." Seamus says quietly. "I should have stayed with her." Tears fill his eyes and his voice breaks. "Seamus, what happened?!?" I demand. He looks up at me, his eyes filled with pain.

"The bridge....." he starts. "We hooked up the explosives and everything was ready. There was a huge group of deatheaters on the other side of the bridge, but the protective charms kept them out. Neville and I were needed by Professor Mcganagall. It was only for 5 minutes. I left her! She was alone!" He takes a deep breath and continues. "When the charms broke, I raced back to the bridge. I was so stupid! Olivia, she was so brave, she carried out the plan perfectly, but the explosives were faster than her! I just stopped at the edge of the bridge and watched! The deatheaters had run into the bridge, chasing Olivia, shooting spells at her. She lit the explosives, and the bridge began to collapse, starting from the far end. She was laughing!" he yells suddenly. "She was enjoying herself, looking so proud that she had done something to help! But the explosives were to fast! The bridge collapse from underneath her! And I just stood there, watching! She's gone!" he cries.

I gasp and stumble back, as if someone has pushed me, tears erupting from my eyes. I trip over the empty cot behind me, which I now know is where Olivia should be laying, and I collapse onto it.

How is this possible?! My two best friends, gone! Gone because of one mans greed and evil! Yet another sob explodes from my mouth and I burry my face into the cot.

My sobs echo through the entire hall, silencing everyone else. I can feel everyone's eyes staring at my shaking body, but I don't care! I just lost my two best friends, I deserve to be able to cry! I feel someone place a hand on my shoulder and I jump because it startles me. Slowly, I look up and come face to face with Neville.

"We haven't found her body yet," he starts. "but they're looking for her and any other missing people. I'm so sorry Morgan. It's our faults."

I sigh. "No it's not your faults. It's Voldemort's." I reply through my sobs. He nods and sighs again.

Someone else comes up to me and places a hand on my other shoulder. I turn around and see Ron, his face filled with concern. "Morgan?" he asks gently, taking a seat beside me. I wrap my arms around him and bury my face into his shirt once again, another bath of sobs escaping me.

Ron holds me close. I hear Neville explain to him what happened and I continue to sob.

How is it possible?!? Why is it always the most innocent people?!? Why is there so much evil in the world?!?!
