I nearly screamed. I nearly yelled and broke everything in my path. I was so angry at my father. I knew he was heartless, but it wasn’t fair.

I kneeled close to Snape, tears filling my eyes. I pulled out a handkerchief and pressed it onto the spot where blood gushed out. I put pressure on every spot Nagini had bit. Every spot of flesh that had been broken. My hands covered in blood, I looked into Snape’s eyes, as he looked back at me.

Harry pressed a vile to Snape’s cheek and collected the soft, shining substance that was spurting from his face.

“Look…at me” He looked between Harry and I. He stared into my eyes for a moment and said “She is proud”

With that, his eyes glazed over and became blank. I shook my head. No! NO! I applied more pressure to his wounds, my hands drenched. It was no use. I held him in my arms as if I was protecting him. I rocked him back and forth.

“I was right about you” I whispered

I stood up and turned to leave out of the tunnel.

“Where do you think you’re going?” Hermione asked, a little frightened

“I’m going to see who else is dead, so I can get over feeling sorry for myself” I spat coldly, not meaning to be mean, just to be firm. I was going no matter what.

My father’s voice came and everyone froze, but I kept walking. I didn’t care what my father had to say, because it was all crap. He was full of shit and I was tired of it. He cannot keep ruining people’s lives like this. Not while I’m still alive.

The voice had stopped when I entered the Great Hall, and my bickering had stopped too. I welled up for the second time, and clenched my fists tightly.

I walked towards the crowd of Weasley family and saw Fred’s limp body. I hugged Ginny tightly and let her cry on my shoulder. Why was it him? Only a few tears had come before Ginny hugged Hermione and I noticed two people that made my heart almost stop.

I stumbled towards Remus and Tonks’ lifeless figures. I kneeled between them and took both of their hands. I rubbed them to keep them warm and not go frigid. I hugged their hands to my chest and started to bawl.

“Remus, wake up. Tonks. C’mon guys. You won’t want little Teddy to be alone tonight. He wants you two” I spoke rationally and then started to get louder. “Remus! Remus, I told you I’d be ok! I told you both I would be fine! Why won you answer me!? REMUS LUPIN!”

I felt someone touch my back, and sit beside me. I didn’t care who it was. I wrapped my arms around them and buried myself in their chest.

“He’s sleeping, George. Fred is sleeping; Tonks and Remus will wake up soon. They all will” I sobbed, faking rationalization.

“Of course they will. We’ll see them after we win. They’ll be really proud of us” George was the same way as me. We both held each other, waiting for the others to wake up.

“Teddy will be so happy when they come home” I whispered

“We could have a big feast and have fudge cake, Fred loves fudge cake”

“I have to go George” I let go of him

“Ok”

I went with Hermione and Ron to find where harry had gone to, but something distracted me. An aching in the back of my neck.

“I have to go” I said to Hermione and Ron

“What? Where?”

“Harry will know” I said and took off. I ran swiftly into the forbidden forest, and then…
