This is my IPod Challenge. Basically I write a chapter for each song, some have more than one character, or more than one setting. I will be using people from all of the years at Hogwarts.
I'm Still Here: Regulus Black
Regulus Black groaned in pain as he looked at the Locket that was in his hands. He was eighteen years old and he swears that the stupidest thing that he had ever done was join Voldemort and his league of Death Eaters.
"…Oh well," Regulus whispered to the empty countryside, and to his ever loyal house elf, "What's done is done, the past cannot be rewritten." He looked at the elf sternly, "This locket is to be destroyed, and you are to tell No one what we have done today, do you understand?"
Kreacher nodded fearfully and took that locket from his dying master, "Yes Master," The small elf then vanished with a crack and Regulus was left alone.
Regulus took a moment to look over at the scene he was witnessing, he was just outside of a muggle school, and there were little kids outside playing on the swing sets and other pieces of playing equipment. And Regulus felt happy.
He was betraying everything that his family ever stood for, for them. And then he paused, he wasn't sure if what he was doing was right and then he heard a little voice from his left.
"Are you alright mister?" It was a little girl, brown hair and blue eyes, wearing a light green sun dress, "Are you hurt? Mummy says that when people get hurt they need to tell a grown up or go see the doctor."
"She's right," Regulus said, "But I've done bad things, I don't deserve help."
"Are you doing bad things now?" The girl asked, her voice was so innocent that it gave the hardened Death Eater a pause.
"No, no I'm trying to make amends for what I've done," Regulus replied.
"Then you aren't bad," The girl said stubbornly, "If you say sorry and mean it, then the only thing you have to do is wait for them to forgive you."
"Little one," Regulus said gently, "I do not deserve forgiving."
"No, you do not Cousin," Regulus tensed and turned to stare at Bellatrix LeStrange, "Speaking to Mud, little Cousin, how shameful."
Regulus placed himself in front of the child and glowered at his cousin, "What do you want Bella?"
"You betrayed our lord," Bellatrix sneered, "You don't deserve to live. But first, I think I'll take care of the brat."
"No," Regulus said, "Not while I'm still here." He smiled, "Sirius was right, you really are a crazy bitch."
As Bellatrix screamed and attacked him, Regulus smiled inwardly. 'I hope she gets away safely.' And then, with a flash of light, Regulus Black was dead.
I'll never be what you want.
