After the end
Disclaimer: all character belongs to J.K. Rowling (you know that) I am making no money from this.
Summary: Hermione's thoughts after the end of the final battle and the end of the war about what everyone has become. First HP fic Plz R&R.
The final battle was hard fort and won at a high price but the full price would not be been Known an till months later. When everyone had had time to count the bodies and the friends lost. Some went on some did not.
I was ironic that the ones I always thought strong were the first to go. I guess you never really know person even when you strode side by side facing down death eaters.
I first realized just how much thing had change since the war when I saw Ron there he was sounded by young girls all wanting to here the story of the final battle at a book sign in Diagon alley. Of course it was an instant hit. (it also over played his role in events) of course all the fame went to his head. Now the only time he talks to any of us his former friends is when the cameras are around. To talk to him you wouldn't know he had lost his only sister and his brother Percy was death eaters like these are detail one can forget. I almost feel sorry for him but then he opens his mouth.
As for his so called best friend Harry James Potter the boy how live to finally destroy Voldemort. He took Ginny death really hard no one knew how hard till I found him hanging from a rope in his home. A note apologizing to her parents for not protecting her and that he couldn't go on with out her.
Everyone took his suicide hard especially Tonks who consider Harry her last link to Remus and as she put it his career as Remus was the last of James friend and she was to be Remus wife that made her so. She still blames her self for not seeing it coming but like so many of us we were just trying to learn to swim after the war and we all miss it. But on the up side she deputy of the Auror department now.
I wish I could say the same for Minerva McGonagell former headmistress of Hogwarts (even if it was only fore a short time) I think she under strode Harry's rezones for taking his own life. She was never the same after Albus Dumbledore (I really think there was something going on between them) murder and the closer of Hogwarts. It still had not been reopened and I don't think it ever will on account of the fact that death eaters had been able to get in to the school.
As for Draco the boy resalable for the death eaters getting in Hogwarts he didn't live long after that he tried to help a moggleborn that had been captured.( Dumbledore's words did get thought to him after all) he did save the girls life but at the cost of his own how Ironic he died saving a mudblood (his words not mine)
As for his partner in crime The Half-Blood Prince Severus Snape his demises was less honable even thought Albus Dumbledore had made him vow to kill him to keep his position safe in Voldemort ranks fat lot of good it did since no one in the order would listen to him but he still fort with us in the final battle afterward he layed down his wand and was arrested by the ministry without a fight. He put up no defense for his crimes and was sent to Azkaban for life ( were he still sits) but Arthur Weasley and I are tiring to get him released as the truth had come out about Albus Dumbledore death in his personal notes ( that no one thought to look at till six months ago.)
Still Hagrid (who still lives at Hogwarts) and many others believe including Snape himself the he belongs there.
I still can't believe how mest up things have become and I thought the war was bad. As for me I only return to the wizarding world to defended Snape (of all people) and the order reunion (although I not that welcome there just like Arthur) but I really don't care my husband is a muggle and I am happy here in the muggle world. After Harry death I just couldn't be around the wizarding community because I just want to forget the war and try to move on.
The end
