Rabastan Lestrange was a Death Eater and everyone knew it. He hated that he didn't have a choice on joining the half-blood bastard that was set on murdering everyone regardless of their blood. Unlike his older brother, he knew exactly what the psychotic man was up to. He couldn't believe that nobody else had figured it out yet, that the man/thing who claimed he wanted a society where Purebloods ruled only really wanted a society where he would rule.
He may have played the part well, but that didn't mean he agreed with everything going on around him. Lucky for him he had an in on the other side and would continue to be able to live his life the way that he wanted it when he was finally freed from his obligation. He was thankful that he had been able to give the Longbottom's a warning before anything truly happened to them. He was thankful that because of what he did that the two in St. Mungo's would be able to be healed completely once the so called Dark Lord was killed off for good.
He stood there and watched as Harry Potter defeated Tom Riddle once and for all. Out of the corner of his eye he saw his deranged sister-in-law getting ready to fire a curse and finally did what he had been wanting to for the last fifteen years. He fired off a curse at his sister-in-law and then followed it up by firing one at his brother. There was no way in hell was going to let them get away. It was about time that they paid for everything that they did to others.
He left the battlefield and headed to St. Mungo's where he quickly did the spells that would bring Alice and Frank Longbottom back to themselves. He smiled at them and nodded before telling them everything that had happened since he last talked to them. Once he was finished he headed to the Ministry where he told Amelia Bones everything before finally leaving Britain to live his life.
He knew that he could have stayed in Great Britain, but he wanted to be alone for a while. He wanted to find himself without people that he knew around him. He needed to find the person in himself that he wanted to be. He would go back one day, but for now he would live how he wanted and where he wanted.
A/N 2: *shakes head* Apparently my muse had a different idea than I did... When I first started this drabble/oneshot I had it planned, but then my muse decided she didn't like the idea and changed the story completely... Not much is known about Rabastan Lestrange at all so it really wasn't that hard to think about things from a different perspective... Hope you all enjoyed this little story...
