Final Battle
I'm standing in the field looking around for him. I'm going to kill the heartless monster that killed my parents and friends. Mum, dad, Ron, Ginny, Sirius; this is for you.
There he is, standing in the middle of the field dueling with an arour. This is my fight.
I step forward ready to face my destiny when a hand on my shoulder stops me. It's Severus.
"Harry, wait."
"For what?" I ask.
He kisses me. This could be our last moment together. I try to think back to when this all started, to when those innocent looks and lingering touches became so much more. We brake and now it's time for me to go.
I resume the walk to my destiny, but this time I am not alone. Severus follows me. This is as much as his fight as it is mine.
We face the Dark Lord together.
Curses fly through the air and Severus is hit with one. He drops down to the ground. He's dying; I can feel it.
"Harry...I love you."
Those are his last words. Then suddenly a bright white light erupts from his body. I notice my wand being thrown aside, along with Voldemort's, by the sheer intensity of it. The white light hits me. Severus transferred all of his power to me.
I face Voldemort, now twice as strong. I no longer have my wand but neither does he.
I lift my arms and push them forward while yelling.
"AVADA KEDAVRA!"
An enormous bright green ball erupts from my hands and hits Voldemort. Voldemort is dead.
I fall to the ground. I'm being flooded with memories. Memories of Severus. Memories of me. Memories of us.
Then a feeling of love washes over me. It's all too much to take. I now understand how much he loved me, and how hard it was for him to accept that, and how hard it was for him to say those words.
I never got a chance to tell him.
I'm in the middle of a battlefield, soaked in blood, covered in dirt, while I'm crying. This wasn't how this was supposed to end.
I look over at Severus' cold lifeless body.
"Severus, I love you too."
A/N: man this was supposed to have a second chapter, like Harry six years later, but o well.
This was not how it was going to end I think. I can't remember.
