"No" my brother screamed in a weak, soul-ripping voice. I couldn't understand it we had jut finished fighting two death eaters killing them both, we should have a moment of celebrating he should be cracking jokes; yet one word came out of his mouth "No". A weak, soul ripping sob escaped his body that made my soul fill with dread; only one thing could rip apart my brother like that, only one could break his soul, Fred.

I knew, I knew from the second it happened. The bond that held me to my twin, my everything snapped; it happened so quickly that I didn't want to believe it at first, I couldn't believe it at first, it was me, my mistake, my paranoia he couldn't be he couldn't be I refused to listen. But then my soul, my heart, my body filled with a kind of pain that was eternal and earth-shattering like a sliver blade stabbed though your heart, the unthinkable had happened, my twin was gone. Fred had died.

A second later he lent onto me breaking down onto my chest, howling, a sound that tore me apart, my baby brother, my baby brothers. They couldn't be gone, no I refused to believe it, he was wrong, this was just another of their pranks a horrible mean one but it wasn't real, it couldn't be real he wasn't dead, Fred wasn't dead. Just then a dose of courage and maternal instinct flooded me it didn't matter, I had to protect the brother who was in front of me now, the one who currently was yelling "No, No, Please, No" into my shoulder, his arms beating my chest helplessly, his endless tears staining the front of my shirt.

I couldn't think, I couldn't feel and I didn't want to do either. I couldn't be alone, I wasn't alone my twin was still somewhere fighting, it had all been a mistake, he was stronger he would get through. We would get through, we were the twins after all, they couldn't hurt us, we were invincible. Yet I knew all of that was a lie, a lie invented by us to hope that the unthinkable wouldn't happen, to push fear away to keep us both strong to keep our family laughing. But I knew it over, it was all over and still I tried to reason with my mind it was wrong, it was all wrong, I wasn't alone, I wasn't the only one left. My twin was still alive. Please...
