Die before you try or try before you die
Draco looked into the mirror. Staring back was a very pale boy with big icy blue eyes and sleek white hair. On his cheeks were tears glistening and blood came dripping out from a wound on his wrist. He knew he was never going to win, never going to get fame and never live a happy life. That's why he had come here to kill himself, so he just didn't have to endure His powers. However, he was too weak and too scared to do it. He knew his mother would weep, his father would scream and the Dark Lord would take revenge.
Draco looked into the mirror again. Staring back was still a pale face, but with icy blue eyes full of determination. He whipped his eyes on his sleeve and threw away the knife. Never would he disappoint anyone, if he should die it would be in fight. His mother would still weep, his father would be proud and the Dark Lord … He dared not to think of it. At least he would have tried, wouldn't be seen as weak and scared, but strong and brave. If during it all he died, at least he would have tried.
