Introduction:
It is the year 2000, and all is slowly being restored in the Wizarding and Muggle worlds alike. In the next several chapters you will be given the opportunity to read several interviews recorded and lost deep in the Ministry of Magic's files. These interviews are extremely important, and quite mysterious. The information given is strictly confidential, and only those with strict access shall be allowed to emerse themselves. Take care, reader, for you may find yourself wishing to help those that are...ruined.
Disclaimer: I do not own, nor hold any claim to, any part of the Harry Potter franchise...No matter how badly I wished that I did.
Dean Thomas
Name: Dean Micha Thomas
Birthdate: August 3, 1980
Relationship to Victim: Friend
Interviewer - Just tell me everything you remember. Relax and don't mind me at all.
Dean - Yeah, alright. Everything was tough after the war, you know? They were just friends and then they weren't. Everyone was really happy for them - it was the first time either had looked happy in who knows how long. Anyway, a whie back we all got together at my exhibit opening at the gallery downtown. He and I had been standing there catching up when, out of the blue, he snapped his fingers and she came running from across the room. She was there in seconds, literally. I was so confused, so, after she walked away again, I asked him about it. He laughed it off and said it was all "just build up for tonight"...you know what I mean, don't you?
Interviewer - Please, explain sir.
Dean - Sex, um...kinky shit or whatever. Anyways, I pretended I knew what he was talking about and laughed with him. Now I know and...Gods, can I take a break? I can't do this anymore.
Author's Note: The first few chapters will seem extremely short, I realize this. I hope that it doesn't make you shy away from the story as a whole, no matter the length. Please bare with me, the lengthy pieces are coming, and are most certainly worth the wait.
I would also like to mention that the title for this short story (Ruined) is borrowed from a great play with the same name. I do not own any part of the play or franchise, but you should check it out as soon as possible!
