The portrait vault was opened, curse broken, and Jacob freed. But when Jacob runs out on young Sarahi again, it breaks her heart further. Rakepick's betrayal, Jacob gone, losing her friends to see them getting darker; how does a traumatized young student deal with that? It seems no one is willing to admit that Sarahi has problems. Least of all Sarahi. However, a new curse is not far behind. As the new curse strikes hard to freeze students with fear, both literally and figuratively, will Sarahi be able to deal with all her responsibilities? She's tired out, but is still going on to protect her friends, afraid to fail. She may be the Protector forever... Her heart, body and soul may hurt forever. Sarahi has been holding up her crumbling world for years, but at what point is that strength not enough? (WARNING: Major spoilers for Year 6)

Harry Potter never fully recovered from the war, it affects his life more than anyone. Being an Auror had taken his mind off things but eventually it began to make things worse. His three children have a loving family and attend Hogwarts, their lives are full of learning spells and playing Quidditch, everything Harry wanted for them, but still their lives are touched by the suffering of their parents. Are Harry's feelings of guilt and horror just a normal part of recovery, or is there something more sinister behind it?

I worked on this out of fun. Also because I believe that Merula is not a 100% bad person.

Barnaby gathers his thoughts and feelings from when he meets Jacob's sister in various encounters, and tries to decide where his loyalties should lie.

Sarahi, in her time at Hogwarts had ignored the most important day of her years; Her birthday. Rowan finds out, and she is not going to let her best friend spend one more year without giving the day the importance it deserves.

These are a bunch of one-shots with my MC, Sarahi Silvers that were inspired by the "Crushed" side quest. Like some imagines, or alternate endings... I hope you like them!😊
