Author: Quick disclaimer: I do not own Harry potter, or any character and locations associated with it. I do, how ever, own Ash, Ravinie, Aimee, and Midnight academy
Chapter: 1 In which death has a very busy night.
"Not Harry! Not Harry! Please, anything but Harry!"
"Stand aside. Stand aside girl."
Voldemort, the most recent dark wizard to come to power, advanced upon the defenseless woman as she clung to the bundle in her arms. But our story does not center on the two who are doomed to die on this day. Our focus is upon the inaudible giggles sounding in the hall way.
For out in the hall, stood two petite figures, each shrouded in black robes, with one hidden in the shadows, while the other was peaking into the room with a masked face.
"Oh my, oh my! What a foolish little girl she is. Honestly, trying to defy the greatest dark lord of all time, so so so foolish!"(1)
The form within the shadows only glared, muttering something about idiot death eaters being to easily excitable. The masked figure turned from her post to gaze at his/her companion.
"Really now Ravinie, must you be so bitter. Come, join in the festivities! After the death of this child, our lord shall be entirely invincible! No witch or wizard shall ever stand before our lord with defiance, and live to tell the tale!" The figure shook a finger to sham the other person.
"AVADA KEDAVRA!"
"No!" The masked face turned back to the doorway, but too late. The woman lay dead on the floor, and The dark lord slowly walked over to the bundle that now lay upon the floor, with loud shriek emitting from within.
The figure in the doorway signed in disappointment "awww... Ravinie, now look what you did! You made me miss the good part! Hehe, oh well. At least I can still watch the child die..." Another sign was heard, before, "but babies just aren't any fun. The look of pure terror, the shrieks of fear. That's what you really want in a death!"
Ravinie took a few steps out of the darkness and closed the distance between her and her companion, "My Ra Ash, for someone who runs around with such an air of innocence, you really are very sadistic. I mean, rea..." but she wasn't allowed to finish her sentence, as ash had just pressed a slim finger against her lips to silence her. "hush love, hush. He's raising his wand! Oh, this is so exciting."
Ravinie grudgingly obeyed her companion, and rolled her eyes at the others obvious obsession with watching death. It was, after all, why ash had joined in Voldemorts ranks, despite Ravinie's protests. Ash had never had a grudge against muggles or muggleborns, she just loved to watch a persons eyes turn lifeless, and was fascinated every time a soul left a body as it fell limp. And while following Voldemort, her obsession was most certainly satisfied.
"Oh Oh Oh! This is so fun!" the masked girl bounced slightly in anticipation.
"AVADA KEDAVRA!"
"Oh joy! What fun! I can't wai..." She froze, unable to tear her eyes away as the impossible happened, as the green light merely bounced off the boy, and came strait back towards her equally shocked master. She listened to her master shriek of terror, and saw the fear in his eyes. She watched as the life left his eyes, and his body was destroyed, and for the first time, she felt no joy in death. She was so captivated by the death of her master, that she took no notice as the house around her collapsed. It was the tugging on her sleeve that finally pulled her out of her trance, unfortunately for Ravinie, it didn't have the desired effect on her death eater friend.
"NOOOOO! NOOOO THIS IS IMPOSSIBLE! HE WAS INVINCIBLE! THE CHILD! THE CHILD SHOULD HAVE DIED! WHY DIDN'T HE DIE!?" She wrenched her sleeve from Ravinie's grasp and continued her screeching even as she tumbled into the wreckage of the house.
As the dust faded from the ruins of the potter house, so did the cries of the distraught death eater. Ravinie clambered over the rubble as she desperately searched for her friend. Climbing onto of a small mound of debris, she spotted a dark cloak as it slowly inched it's way over to the still shrieking bundle. Realizing the death eaters intentions, she dashed over to stop the shrouded figure just as it raised a dagger the way laying nearby(2)
"NO Ash! No, please don't! let the child live! It did you no wrong." She dragged the girl away from the child, out of reach of the dagger.
Ash struggled to get away from Ravinie's grip "Ravinie you fool! Let me go! Let me kill it! It deserved to die! It killed my master, it killed Voldemort! A quick death if I must, but please let me avenge my master!"
"Ash please, don't do this! The boys only crime was being born! You can not carry out such a cold hearted execution for such a petty reason!" she desperately searched her mind for anything that would turn her distraught partner from sinking the blade into the baby's heart, when a thought struck her. "What about Lance! You've always hoped he would one day respect you, as you respect him! What would he say to such a... such a cold blooded murder? Is this how you expect to gain his admiration?"
"respect, honor. These words no longer mean anything to me" she held up a hand to silence Ravinie's attempt to protest, "Do not fret, dearest Ravinie, for I shall let the child live. I do not care to take his life any longer. Infact, I do not believe I shall ever be able find joy and contentment in watching another human die. Not that I have now seen death come to one that I wished to live. No, now every shriek of terror will be his, and I shall see no eye widen in fear without it being crimson."
She laid the dagger across her lap, and parted the folds of the blanket ever so slightly, exposing the small chubby face of a child, a long scar crossing his forehead.
Ravinie's eyes widened in surprise. She had never in all her days heard Ash speak with such a serious air about her. She felt an sinking sadness as she listened to the once bouncy and chipper death eater, realizing that the girl, however fascinated with death she was, had never truly experienced the pain associated with the death of another. She turned away, for she could not bear the see her friend in such a state, and inside she wept as she wondered if this was the end of the light hearted girl she had befriended so many years ago.
A slight movement caught her eye, and she turned to see Ash once again raise the dagger over her head, with the child in her lap. She raced forward to pull the blade from the death eaters hand, but was too late. She could only watch in shock and horror at her friends actions as the blood spilled around the hilt of the dagger and pooled on the ground.
A final, long, mournful shriek filled the night air as Ravinie watched her childhood friend fall forward across the child, the dagger deep within the death eaters own heart.
Ravinie crumpled onto the ground beside her fallen friend, and pulled the lifeless body into her arms. Too far into her grief for words, the only sounds heard were the heart wrenching sobs of a girl who's entire world had just been destroyed. Realizing she only had so long before someone discovered the Potter's fate, she wiped the tears from her eyes and pulled the dagger from her friends chest.
As a final act of desperation to free herself from the pain, she slit her wrists and let the blood mix with the that of her friends.
As she watched it pool around the surprisingly silent, yet living child, she lifted Ash's lifeless form, and, after wrapping them both in her shroud, she dashed off to let herself die in peace, where no one would disturb her and her childhood friends soon the be corpses.

AN:
(1) tonight, people seem to be repeating themselves a lot.
(2) why there was a dagger in the nursery, no one will ever know.
Author: wow... that was a lot more angsty than I meant it to be. I was actually expecting a humor fic... Ra, my muses are so unpredictable sometimes.
Ash: Holy lunar froot loops of fudge! Since when have I been so serious!?
Ravinie: apparently, since you saw Voldemort die you baka.
Ash: but, I saw Voldemort die in SFD, and I didn't get all angsty!
AN: DEAL WITH IT!!! THE MUSE WANTS ANGST! THERE FORE SHE/HE SHALL GET ANGST!
Ash: yes, all powerful writer person.
Ravinie: ... Ra, I hate you all
Ash: ummm question? Since when have me and Ravinie ever had such strong loyalty?
Ravinie: yeah, I mean. Wow. Ash killed herself because of Voldemorts death and I killed myself because Ash was dead, when I distinctly remember her throwing Voldemorts corpse out the window is SFD, and me running around the dungeons singing when I thought Ash was dead...
Author: ... shut up. You two had to be dead in this fic. It was better than my original plan.
Ravinie: why exactly, did we have to die? And what was your original plan?
Author: sorries, can't tell ya! It reveals to much to the fic!
Author: well, I guess all that's left to say is please review, and tell me what you think! I'll get started on the next chapter right away! Give me any suggestions! Fare-thee-well!
