Crabbe

There was a small cemetery behind a large mansion, and many students and older Deatheaters were gathered to remember Vincent Crabbe. Most people only knew him as one of Draco's goons but to Goyle he was the only person to take him seriously. Draco was sitting in the back row of seats, feeling guilty for treating Crabbe like an infidel. Goyle was sitting on the stage with Crabbe's parents looking at note cards. Crabbe's parents went up to the podium.

"There is only one person we saw fit to give Vincent's funeral speech, please give your respect to Gregory Goyle" His mother concluded.

"Most people only knew Crabbe as Malfoy's bodyguard, but that wasn't all he was he was also a good friend to me and Draco though usually we followed Malfoy blindly. What he didn't know was how much Crabbe and I respected him, he usually threatened us to 'keep us in line' as he used to say. But Crabbe finally broke getting no respect from Draco; we joined Voldemort and vowed to not follow the Malfoy family to their demise. Knowing their fall from the dark lord's graces was coming, we practiced all kinds of dark arts. What we forgot was to learn how to stop them, and he was killed by his own curse, in an attempt to kill Harry." Goyle said looking at Draco whose eyes were watering, but Goyle knew he wouldn't cry." We only did what we thought was necessary to survive, to be honest we never got the chance to choose good or evil, conditioned from birth to protect Malfoy. Though me an' Malfoy didn't die we should have died with Crabbe, Harry had no right to save us. We were all meant to die in that room, in that magical fire. Crabbe will be missed by all of us that knew him, and his death will be overshadowed in the papers by the sacrifices for Potter."

"Not everyone who died fighting for Voldemort is evil. The only difference is whoever died for Potter is a hero because he won, and everyone else is a villain because they believed in Voldemort's idea's and will easily be forgotten in a few days while the other's will be remembered for ages. But Crabbe was a hero because he was fighting for whatever he had to; to keep his friends and family alive" Goyle finished "Crabbe may you always be remembered"

"Goyle," Draco said calling him over after he left the stage. "That was a good speech. I'm sorry I didn't respect you two that much, I had no idea you cared that much."

"Your to big of an egomaniac to ever realize Draco." Goyle said " I don't blame you"

"Your right we should have died." Draco said leaving, Goyle staring at Crabbe's tombstone.
