Harry. Harry was the only thing in my mind when I disapperated from Grimmauld palace to the Ministry. Kreacher had betrayed me. He had gone to Cissy and Bella instead of coming to me. Of course. I thought now. I should have treated him more nicely. Like Walburga did. Like Reggie did. But this had no importance to me. The only thing in my mind was Harry. Voldemort had tricked him into coming to department of mysteries. But how? Harry should have told slimeball even if he dislikes him. He should have contacted me through the mirror. Must have forgotten about it.

As I entered the department of mysteries I saw Harry over Neville, Dolohov standing over them and about to summon the prophecy. I rammed into Dolohov and sent him flying out of the way and started dueling with him. He was almost a joke when Harry sent him 'petrificus totalus'. "Nice one". I shouted forcing Harry's head down as a pair of stunning spells flew towards us.

"Now I want you to get out of-" we both ducked as a green light narrowly missed me. Across the room I saw Nymphy (Tonks, by the way) fall and Bella laugh. Anger surged through me and I dashed to duel her yelling at harry to take the prophecy, grab Neville and run. I remembered the battle of Hogwarts when Bella and I dueled for the first time. She had laughed at my spells. Saying they were meant for kids. I had made her unconscious then. James said that he had never seen me act so violent.

Bella was just sending stupid jets of light at me while I just kept blocking them. I yelled at her "Come on these things are for kids. Didn't Voldy teach you anything?" Bella screamed in fury.

"You bastard you dare insult him? Now let me tell you .You are going to die tonight. The dark lord has ordered me to kill you which I'd be doing with pleasure. And Dumbledore would be no more from tonight. The dark lord will destroy him!" Bella cackled.

"Dumbledore! Dead !You sound like mother." I laughed as she sent a curse at me and I blocked it again. Now I sent jets of fiery lights at her which she found hard to block. 'Disadvantages of never even touching a broomstick.' "Come on you are too sluggish. Still married to Lestrange are you? Or did you finally display your feelings to little ickle Voldy here?"

The second jet of light hit me squarely in the chest. I was still laughing but my eyes widened in shock. When did that stupid love struck banshee learn so much? What would become of Harry now? I was his only family. And Moony? Is it fair that they both have to feel the pain twice? After Lily and James ,losing me will be hard for them. What would I say to them? I felt fear for the second and the last time in my life. It was just as horrible as seeing James and Lily's lifeless bodies.

I don't know what Harry saw of me but I inclined my head a little and saw both Lily and James inside Harry. Moony was somewhere near and over them was- Dumbledore. That's why the room had gone so silent!

My body arched through the tattered veil and I saw no more of the other side. I was arching….arching…..arching….when I was done with it and I had straightened up I saw Lily and James. But they weren't cursing, hexing or even angry. They were smiling. Smiling their dazzling smiles at the man who had failed to identify Peter, failed to save them, failed to fulfill his duty as a godfather, who had failed everything.

But when James hugged that man, he knew he did everything to identify the spy, everything to save them, everything to fulfill his duty as a godfather, did everything that was necessary.
