Chapter 1
Ache. I ache. Everywhere. Body, mind, heart, everywhere. No pain. Pain later. Pain always follows ache. Don't like pain. Hide. Close eyes. Can't find me in darkness.
Darkness.
No thought.
Darkness.
Blurry images. Dreams? Consciousness? Hallucinations? Chaos (fear). Hallways and darkness and blinding light. Cold. Hard surface, forest, running, footsteps, black hair green eyes (Harry), red hair freckles (Ron. Ron. Ron.) Red eyes (evil); Black metal; rough wood; white and grey, soft, worried.
Too confusing. Still ache. No pain, still ache. Think later, too confusing.
Darkness again.
Darkness gone. Good? Bad? Flash of white, grey. Cold. Rough wool. Wool is warm. Want more. Close eyes- darkness but not Darkness. A warm (a hand). A hand? A person. Liquid down my throat. Water? Food? Potion? Poison? Don't care. A hand, a person. (Run.)
Running. Running away. Footsteps, fear. Footsteps following fast. (Run. Run. RUN!)
Caught. I'm caught. Must have caught me. Like last time. Pain, blood, mudblood.
Malfoys. Screams, mine and hers. Pain. No, not again, please no. NoNoNo not again no please. No, no, no. Please, kill me just kill me I don't know
Please
"No. No, no. Please, I don't know"
Moans of pain. Screams, hers and mine. Hers? Mine. Shouts, words. Mine? And his. His? Mine and his.
"NO. Not again not again. No please!"
"No, I'm not losing you now. Come on, Granger, you can't give up now."
"I don't know I don't know just kill me" Sob.
"You're not dying on me, not after everything- "
"NO! Not again, not again! Never again. Please!" Too much.
Falling, cracking, breaking, tipping point. Darkness pulls.
"NO! Granger- !"
Darkness good. Not again, not today. Darkness instead.
"Granger! Don't you dare- Grang- "
Darkness.
