'Fighting'- Yellowcard

What am I fighting for?
There must be something more
For all these words I sing
Do you feel anything?
Said I'm okay but I know how to lie
You were all that I had
You were delicate and hard to find
Got lost in the back of my mind
And I can never get back
No, I never got back
You were not there when I needed to say
I hit the bottom so fast
That my head was spinning around for days
Now I got to go there alone
But I will never give up
No I will never give up


Around 2 months later, in late November

Teddy walked into the Great Hall for dinner, smiling. All the teachers told the students their grades privately. He was doing great. He got mostly Os, except two Es in History of Magic and Astronomy. They weren't very interesting. Prof. Longbottom joked about him being in Ravenclaw instead. To top it off, they had no homework for the weekend. Probably one of the best Fridays ever. There was something odd though. He sat down and looked up at Prof. Walc. They had became really great friends, and of course she was the favorite teacher of his and basically everybody else too. It probably had something to do with her connection to his father. As he looked up to her, she looked very sad, unlike her usual happy self. She glanced down at the Hufflepuff table, making slight eye contact with Teddy, but then breaking it. Something was very wrong.

Then it hit him. It was a full moon tonight. But, last month she wasn't like that. No, that wasn't right. There was something else...

"Teddy?" Ben asked from his side.

Teddy turned to him, "Yea Ben?"

"Nothing. You sorta just seem out of it. Does it have anything-" Ben started.

"No. I'm ok." Teddy interrupted. He looked down at his plate of food and was suddenly hungry. He grabbed a fork and stabbed it into a slice of turkey, then ate it. He paused and looked at the moon again, getting that usual headache that won't go away. He slipped a vial of Wolfsbane out of his pocket and quickly drank it. Prof. Walc was making them for him, but she said even she can't do anything about the taste. He swallowed the nasty liquid and slid the vial back into his pocket. The Wolfsbanes usually make the headaches go away and he didn't get angry easily. Even though it doesn't sound like much, it's hard. How much did a real werewolf have to go through...?

The sounds of people getting up from their benches quickly interrupted Teddy's thoughts. But he stayed sitting. Victoire looked at him oddly, but he nodded as a signal for her to go. John and Ben sort of hesitated before they left too. After most of the lot left, he stood up. Prof. Walc now looked at him and stood up herself, walking down to the door. She paused at the door, a sign for Teddy to come. And he did. He walked over to the door and Prof. Walc opened it.

"Professor, are you ok?" Teddy nervously asked.

Prof. Walc still walked swiftly ahead, not looking back as she spoke, "Please just follow me."

Teddy walked behind her as she took a sharp turn and started walking down a corridor. At the end was a door to a room. Teddy thought it was her room. She stood in front of the door, "Vladimir." she told it as the door unlocked, allowing them to enter. Teddy looked inside and their was a huge bookcase. He didn't see most of the names, but there were some in a different language. One said on the spine 'оборотни' He had no idea what that meant but he turned back to Prof. Walc. She held a Daily Prophet in her hand and looked at Teddy. "Teddy, what I am about to tell you is shocking and very sad. Are you ok with this?"

Teddy's heart pounded. What could be so horrible? "Yes."

Prof. Walc sighed and looked into the Daily Prophet, and began to read. "Today, Andromeda Tonks was found murdered in her own home."

Teddy's heart stopped. Gram? Gram...died? It could've happened. No. Not at all. There must be some other Andromeda Tonks somewhere...because...it can't be Gram.

"Do you want me to keep reading?" she asked in a soft voice. Teddy nodded his head, in shock. "She was mauled to death by a certain werewolf named Fenrir Greyback."

"G-g-greyback? Isn't that...the guy..." Teddy said as Prof. Walc nodded. Teddy's head pounded. He wasn't sure what to do. He couldn't feel anything. It was that feeling he had felt only once before when Gram had told him about his parents. But now, there was no Gram. Prof. Walc set down the paper and looked at Teddy. They both stood there in an awkward silence.

Teddy whispered, "Where will I go?"

"Well," Prof. Walc said, "You would go to your godfather, Harry. But I have an idea, would you like to hear it?"

"Yes." he responded.

"Would you want to come live with me, Teddy?" she asked.

Teddy stopped. Live with Prof. Walc? That sounded pretty good. It's not that there's anything wrong with Harry...it's just he wouldn't want to live with him. There's this unusual silence that fills the air when they are together. But Prof. Walc was so kind to him, and he thought of her as a great friend, not just another one of his professors. At a loss for words, Teddy just nodded his head in agreement.

"Great," she said, "but I'm not sure exactly what Harry would think. He could put up a fight, but I'm not sure. I don't know him personally real well. I'm glad you said yes." Teddy weakly smiled, trying to push the fact that his grandmother died to the back of his head. Prof. Walc opened her arms and hugged him. "Now you can go back to your dorm Teddy. You do know the way from here, right?"

"Yes." Teddy quietly replied as he turned and walked out of the room.
