Final Thoughts
"If war is ever lawful, then peace is sometimes sinful." – C.S. Lewis
I fall against the wall in the abandoned corridor. The fight left to a new place not long after that curse hit me. Blood is flowing freely from the nasty cut that I got from that curse, slowly draining the life from me.
I know I'm going to die. But damn, is it slow and painful.
My life is flashing before my eyes. I see my childhood, so many memories…
Now the memory reel moves to my time at Hogwarts. I learned so much and made so many great friends. Even though I won't make it through, I hope they do. But regardless of when they die, I'll be waiting with a bottle of butterbeer and a smile on my face.
As for the Death Eaters, I'll be waiting with a clenched fist for the bastards.
I'm struggling to keep awake now, it seems my time is up. 17 years and it all ends here, in an empty corridor in the place which shall host the end of the Second War.
At least I never killed anyone. So I know that I'm better than those bastards who kill innocent people because they damn well feel like it. I'm better than them and they know it, but they don't give a damn.
Finally, my thoughts turn to my girlfriend, my first and my last. She's in hiding with her family. I wrote to her just yesterday. When I was writing the letter, I had no idea that it would be my last to her, or anyone for that matter.
If there is one thing I regret, it's that I have to leave her. But I guess it's like that line in that MCR song:
"'Cause the hardest part of this is leaving you." How true.
My breathing is becoming labored now. I only have a few seconds of life left. I hope I won't have died for nothing. I hope that I died to make the world a better place.
As what little life I have left ebbs away, I just have two messages:
To my friends, I'll see you in the afterlife.
To Voldemort and the Death Eaters, I'll see you in Hell.
