THE TWO GIRLS talk for the first time. They didn't talk about studies nor their friends, they talk about them. Turns out they get along very fine.
"Is it true?" Hermione then asks, the air shift into an intense one.
"What Harry said?" y/n asks and Granger nodded.
"It's true, he's my father." y/n say in a small voice. Hermione smile sadly.
"Does anybody else know?" she asks, y/n nodded.
"Dumbledore, Snape— death drinkers." y/n says making Hermione stifle a laugh.
"Is there anything I could help?" Hermione asks and y/n shook her head.
"Are you sure? you can stay at my home or the Weasleys." she asks and y/n smile but still shook her head.
"Dumbledore's order." she says and Granger roll her eyes.
"Then Dumbledore is mad! he can't possibly —"
"What Dumbledore says, it goes, if not, there would be something wrong." y/n said and Hermione look at her in confusion.
"What do you mean?" she asks.
"I'll tell you after it's over and we can catch up then, you're a great person Hermione." y/n said giving her a brief hug, and before anyone could see, she left.
Y/n's feet carried her to the secret room on the seventh floor, the room of requirements. She thought of what she needed and the door appeared. Y/n looked around to see nobody's there so she opened the door.
She got in and closed it. She hears sobs that she recognized as Draco. She break into a run and went straight to the cabinet where Draco was sobbing infront of it. She halted as Draco saw her, he look like his in pain.
"I fail again." Draco say in a small voice and he starts to sob again.
Y/n went towards the boy and hugged him, providing comfort. He started sobbing while rambling about his failure, he's scared of his family life. Scared on how Voldemort was going to kill him.
"Stop!" y/n says pulling back from the hug, Draco looked at her in confusion.
"Try again." she says softly looking at him, deep in his eyes.
"I'll be here, you try again." she says and Draco nodded rapidly.
"Good." y/n nodded standing up, Draco turned back to the cabinet and started working on it.
Y/n walk around and sat on an old couch. Resting her eyes and sleep suddenly consumed her.
Her eyes shot open as her body was being shaken. She was meet by Draco's grinning.
"I did it." he whispers.
Suddenly all her sleepiness was gone. She felt a pang on her chest. Of course she was happy that Draco life was off the hook, but the fact that Dumbledore's life was going to end soon felt more real.
"Great." she says in a small voice, still in her thoughts.
"I'm going to live y/n!" he says grinning, y/n just gave her a fake smile.
but Dumbledore wouldn't.

Y
/n is now pacing around Dumbledore's office while he sat behind his desk, calmly.
"Is there any other way?" she asks out of breath.
"No, I'm already sick from the ring, either way I will be dead." Dumbledore say and y/n tried so hard to stop her from crying.
"You can't say that!" y/n yelled, tears started to threaten to fall from her eyes.
"It's the truth y/n." Dumbledore says calmly and y/n abruptly stops and look at him.
"Oh right! this is war remember! where people die!" she says humorlessly.
"y/n, calm down." Dumbledore says, he still remembers the events after the third task, he's afraid that it would happen again.
"How could I calm down?" she asks in disbelieve, Dumbledore just sat back looking at the girl.
"Sometimes I wish I was Snape you know?" she says smiling sadly while tears is rolling down on her cheeks.
"He doesn't get attached with people, it makes our job easier. But why did I have to, can you imagine if I were being a bitch since first year, where I won't be attach with anyone." y/n says in pain.
"It makes all of this war stuff easier without fucking emotions." she says angrily.
"Can you imagine if Voldemort or Iris was under a love potion?" y/n smiles.
"Maybe I could be like him, not getting attach, not being sad, not crying over a fucking boy, not being emotionally drained by all of this. Where a mission is a mission." she rambles.
"If you were gaven birth under a love potion, I'm afraid you'll be the mixture between Voldemort and Grindelwald." Dumbledore says.
"I think it would be better than what I am now." she says and Dumbledore raise his eyebrow.
"I know it took a toll on you, I'm sorry that I gave you all of this burden, but you're our only hope." Dumbledore explains and y/n breath out.
"Do you really want to be a person who slaughter billions? do you really want to be the person who took everything from everyone? Will that make you happier?" Dumbledore asks and y/n shook her head, with fresh tears is still marked on her cheeks.
"Or do you want to let me go, let everyone who sacrifice themselves and not make it, for the greater good? Do you not want a future for yourself?"
"I don't want a future knowing I won't share it with the people I care the most." y/n bit her lip to stop her from crying even further.
"Well the people you care for, care about you too, and they're ready to sacrifice themselves, knowing you will live."
