I walk out of the Great Hall, to look around a final time, going to all my old favourite places in the castle.
Down the Slytherin House, back up, and into the Hospital Wing, the entrance to the courtyard, and the place where I used to watch the twins build snowmen with Lee..
As I walk, with the latest episode of Potterwatch playing in my ears, Remus' voice comes through, and I begin to think..
Where is Remus? And Tonks.. I haven't seen either of them since..
I haven't seen them for months now..
Well, I mean Tonks has been pregnant since..
But Remus?
It's not like he's avoiding me, it's clear my godfather loves the House of Black, but..
I step over the leg I see in the corner, walking as I think about where—
Hang on-
—I turn back, looking at the person who owns the leg mentioned.
It's not that hard for me to work out-
THAT REMUS ON THE FLOOR??
I start to breath a little heavy, fanning my face
No-.. no way..
Oh, how is Wormtail the one who survived??
WORMtail??
Not like I'm an emotional person, but..
I'm crying
More than I expected, because it can't get any worse than this-
Dora is just feet away
And her arms are reaching out
Not ONE of the marauders made it, not ONE of the adults that I'm meant to love survived.
I've got one chance left, one hope in the world
And that's all up to the next hour.
