Haunting

"The difference between taking your own life and asking someone to take it is acceptance. To accept the fact that you cannot take your own life shows bravery not cowardice. Remember that."

Harry stared in shock at Remus, how had he known? Emerald green eyes focused on his old professor.

"Will you kill me?" he asked him softly. Remus looked at him.

"No, I will not, however - "

"I will." Both turned to silky voice that had entered the small room. Harry looked at Severus.

"Thank you."

The young man smiled as the haunting green light that took his parents so long ago hit him and he knew no more.
