"What is your lifeline?"

It's funny when I agreed to go to the interview I never had expected a question like that. Even funnier I couldn't answer. I'd never felt more depressed in my life when I realized.

"I don't have one."

The reporter didn't think it was funny, they though I was being a smart-aleck.

"Everyone has one! The reason to keep living, to go on through the worst."

"I don't."

"You have to have one. Through all the horrors of the war, you needed one to survive!"

"I only survived because I wasn't allowed to die."

"What is that suppose to mean?!"

"If I died everyone else would lose hope and Voldemort would have won."

"So your lifeline was to help others, give them hope."

"No. I really didn't care what happened to those people."

"How could you not care, you're the hero of the light!"

"Not really, more like a puppet of the hypocrites."

"WHAT?!"

"Well first off there is no light or dark."

"Of course there is."

"Nope for example any spell could be used for good."

"Even the Killing Curse?"

"Yeah it could put a person out of their misery or kill a deer to feed a starving family."

"Well…"

"And spells could be used for bad like Lumos could blind a person or Stupfy could make a person be unable to move to escape from something life threathening."

"Like what?"

"A dragon about to eat you or a car speeding towards you on a road."

"A what?"

"A muggle machine."

"Oh...Why are you a puppet?"

"Because I am forced to do the will of others."

"What if this will was for the greater good?"

"The greater good of who, because it certainly wasn't for the greater good of me?"

"Well the majority of the world."

"Why should I care about them? I don't even know them, they could be bad people murders, rapists, thieves, or worse."

"So why did you help if you didn't care?"

"I was forced."

"By who?"

"Dumbledore."

"How did he force you?"

"He cursed me till I gave in, stole my freedom, hid all of the truth from me, and chased away or killed anyone that really cared."

"…"

"Surprised that Dumbledore isn't all that wonderful? Did you know he abused Tom Riddle Jr. to the point of insanity to create a dark lord?"

"Why would he want to make a dark lord?"

"So he could make himself look good."

"…"

"So as you can see I really don't have a lifeline."

"Well what are you going to do now that the war is over?"

"Kill myself"

"WHAT?!"

"See this proves my point the Killing Curse can be used to put someone out of their misery." A green flash filled the room and Harry Potter lied dead on the floor, smiling.

The reporter screamed and ran from the room, "THE BOY WHO LIVED IS DEAD!"
