     Quiet.Blank.

     That's all it was.

     Everything was a blur then, in the very matter of seconds, I felt my legs give out. My head hit the floor with a hard thump and everything was gone.

One week ago

     "Neville- where-are you going?" Ginny said as she continued to try and catch her breath after running after me. But I wasn't running, just simply quickly walking. And I had started out with a head start saying that I randomly rushed out of the dorm room. But I continued to find my way to the library calling back at Ginny.

     "Library. Then to find Professor Sprout if my assumptions are correct. assumptions. If not I'll be to Hagrid's."

     As my foot landed on the threshold, I felt a pair of eyes burning into the side of my face. I looked the other way just to see another pair. Malfoy and Potter. They might as well have been twins. They go everywhere together. They do everything together. And that's when I realized that it wasn't a good day for the library. I Just quickly brushed passed the bumping Malfoy's left arm and Potter pulled back his. I was going to apologize but was cut off before the words even passed my lips. Before I knew it, the two mischief makers had scurried out of the library door skipping quickly over the threshold. I shook my head as I searched the library looking at each and every book. I was about to skip it when I noticed something peculiar about a single book. It had nothing special about it other than the fact that all the books surrounding was covered in dust.  I plucked the book from the shelf, and behind it had been a small paper with a key. I went running out of the library automatically recognizing where I had seen the symbol on the shaft of the key.

     I ran my hands along the walls as I found myself Stopping at the one door I knew all too well. It was the Room of Requirements. I went through the door, looking behind myself to ensure my safety and as I went into the room it was slowly changing before my eyes. I went over to my desk I had in here and I pulled out an article I had found the other day. The article was about Myrtle Elizabeth Warren's death. She had been one of the many students killed at Hogwarts during the odd string that followed the Muggle-borns, slowly making them trip up to the door of death. The poor Ravenclaw student had been crying at the time of her death when a basilicks slaughtered her with just the turn of its head giving her a literal death glare. I run down over to the bathroom she died in and I walked back into the one place I thought I would never enter again.

     I scurried across the cold reflective floor and landed at the skeleton of a snake.

     "Bloody hell, the damned thing looks worse now then it did before" and as the words left my lips I heard the very same sentence echo around me in the hollow cave-like area. I felt a chill around me and I quickened my pace as a finessed a venom covered tooth and went for the next one.

     Days later. We thought we had it. I found out what each horcrux was. or at least I thought I did. The cup. The diadem. The snake. The locket. The ring. And the diary. We had knocked all but the snake and worst of all. Me.

     We had just 48 hours before the fight. The one that nobody knows about. I ran to Professor Spouts and grabbed the herbs and necessities I needed for what had to be done. I busted through the Gryffindor tower entrance and the very second I the bushy mained girl I shoved everything in my hands to her.  I ordered her to make first aid potions as fast as she could. As those words pass into her ears she gave me the most flabberghast look. She continues to try asking me why we need this, and I just apologize and run off to the next destination.

     Headmaster Dumbledore. I went to his office letting the password fall across my lips without hesitation. The second I lifted my hand to knock on the door I was greeted by Snape. He scoffed at my presence and I lowered my hand, moving aside for him. As we exchanged looks we also exchanged positions on either side of the door and I saw the door close and turned around. I sat in the chair that sat just the length of wand from the area I had occupied. I broke into conversation starting with the fact that I had to die to save everyone.
