Author's Note: My birth certificate still doesn't say J.K Rowling, so yes, I still don't own anything to do with Harry Potter. My idea as to how Remus and Tonks died in the final battle. Remus POV. DH spoilers. Short and angsty. Implied slash. Enjoy!

Last

I take her hand in mine, knowing that it may be the last time I do so. Memories of the last few minutes flash before me, blinding me temporarily before allowing my normal vision to return.

"Remus!"

"No Tonks, I can handle this alone!"

I wonder numbly if I had even believed that at the time. I certainly don't believe it now. I look at her sideways, and find her looking back at me. She's beautiful, and strong. I can see Killing Curses being fired, reflected in her wide eyes. Then I see fear. I can even smell her fear.

Tonks ran towards her beloved, firing a Stunning Spell at Dolohov angrily,

"Stay away from my husband you bastard!"

It had no chance of hitting him. Dolohov was one of the Dark Lord's strongest duellers, I knew I could not beat him almost as soon as we began to duel. My mind wanders back to the Marauders. James gone…Sirius gone…Peter gone, Harry had informed me of his death. I'm the last Marauder. Last to die.

Dolohov Disarmed Tonks first, then turned his murderous gaze on Remus, Disarming him too, "Ready to die, filthy Wolf?"

"Don't call him that!"

Sirius. I can remember his death clearly. The shock was reflected on mine and Harry's faces as my beloved sailed past the veil and on, to Death. I could've sworn I saw him look at me as he fell backwards, but perhaps that was just wishful thinking. I loved him. He loved me. It was our desperateness for someone who understood that brought us to love each other like that. He was an escaped convict, who was forced to hide from the world. I was a werewolf, forced to hide it from people.

He Stunned them both, before firing off Killing Curses in all directions, trying to hit more of their side. Then Dolohov grinned, showing yellowing teeth,

"Its time."

Those long days spent in each other's arms, the feel of his lips on mine…all over when he went through that veil. I had lost the one person I ever loved. I couldn't show my grief at the time, but there are nights where I weep and weep, remembering the loss of Sirius. Then I found Tonks. She loved me for a long time, she knew I had loved Sirius, and she helped me move on. I love her dearly, but I often wonder if my love for her is the same kind as my love for Sirius. Sirius is a dull ache in my heart now, but I know I will be joining him and James soon. I clutch Tonks' hand, whisper, "I love you." Dolohov is coming towards us now, wand aloft.

"Avada Kedavra!"

There is a flash of green light, and before she could tell me the same, Tonks breathed no more, her last words dying on her lips. I had hoped it would be me first, so I wasn't last for once. But that's me, isn't it? The last Marauder. Last to die.

There is another flash of green, but I ignore it and look at the stars. The last thing I see before I die. The Dogstar, Sirius. Last to go.

Then the spell hits me, and at last I die.

Last.

Author's Note: Yes, its rubbish. But give me your thoughts anyways.
