Anomaly
Disclaimer: I'm just playing in the HP universe and a few others universes as well… (will decide on the universes as the story evolves). The characters and universes belong to their authors and all I own is the bit of fun of writing this fan fic down
The future is… no more
"I feel old… God! I'm tired…" though Harry.
"Heheh… I, actually, am old…" he continued thinking with a small smile. "Maybe too old…. "
"Nah… scratch that… I'm waaay too old…."
For those who would have seen the way Harry looked, they would say that he was just a regular 25ish old human. Maybe the only thing somewhat unusual would have been that he was wearing black jeans and a black t-shirt, none of them having any kind of inscriptions or designs.
Not that would have matter… for the end was near… literally. Harry was looking at the sky where a strong light was pulsing on and off. The muggles were calling this a pulsar… had called it a pulsar, as there was no muggle left nowhere on the face of the Earth since the pulsar has entered the solar system about 50 something years ago and somehow "decided" to stop and just… well… hang around… for a lack of a better term. It did not obey the laws of physics, at least none that were known to the humanity. It had simply appeared on the edge of the solar system one day, and started to slowly blast everything away with radiation. Lots of radiation…
The magicals, at first just laughed at the muggles for they surely must be crazy to be scared of some light in the sky. However nobody found this amusing anymore, as the first blast of radiation vaporized everything and anything from half a planet be it muggle, magical or simple bacteria; be it behind concrete & steel or the most powerful wards that could be raised. The other half of the planet was sterilized clean a mere 12 hours later…
Still… Harry survived… He had no idea how, or why. Nor did the gods who saw the destruction of humanity and just shrugged... Why would someone destroy something this race, so insignificant at their level in such a way, as so many other ways would assure the same result but with none of the raised brows… Nor could they tell how Harry was surviving for the last 53 and half revolutions of the planet with no food or water, or in the regular blasts of radiation. This deeply perturbed them, so they decided to wait and see who will come and take care of the anomaly that Harry was and maybe find out why it had done what it had done
As for Harry, right now he was trying to summon a glass with water for his parched lips, but without his wand this was as hard as it could get.
"Damn it! Damn it all to hell!" after failing again for the Nth time. He knew he was getting the spell, the feeling, the memory and the desire for water as it should, but all he got for his effort was more radiation from the pulsar. "I don't even have enough energy to swear… "
He sits on a frozen slab of stone. With little to no atmosphere left due to the radiation blast, Earth is now a frozen hell, exception only when the same radiation comes over and all becomes magma level hot
"Hell... I'd sell my soul to be able to die... Or maybe I'm in hell and I just don't remember when I have died. Through, truth to be told, I had expected a judgement and/or at least Voldemort to be around..."
"Ah, well..." and with a sight, Harry started trying to summon that glass with water again. Nothing better to do anyway...
