Breaking Benjamin: Dance with the Devil
Nymphadora Tonks-Lupin ducked as another spell flew overhead, even as tears blurred her vision. She had just seen her husband, the man she loved above all others, go down in a flash of green. Though it tore her heart to pieces she wasn't surprised at his death, because he hadn't been the cautious man that she had known before Sirius had died two years ago. She had watched him get even more reckless and daring in the months since Dumbledore had been killed. Though he loved her it was clear most of the time that her belief in him and them just wasn't enough. Just as he was waking up was always the worst, she couldn't look him in the eyes anymore for fear of seeing the cold blankness that overtook him sometimes. She hardened her resolve to survive her own dance with the devil in a skull mask for Teddy when another green light over took her and as her world went dark she whispered to the son she wouldn't get to see grow up "Goodbye."
