A/N: drabble 36 published Oct 6th 2009. Spent the day doing an essay about PTSD in returned servicemen and war neurosis. Then I wrote this. War seems to be on my mind today. Anyway the term bellumaddo that is used by Luna is the latin translation for war bringers, I thought it would fit. Little creatures that congregated around warriors.


War

War was a funny thing Luna mused as she watched Harry walk away from him. To twist the words of that Muggle writer, some were born for war and some had war thrust upon them. Harry was a strange mix of both. War would dictate his life and yet he still tried to run from the inevitable. Did he not see the bellumaddo that floated around his head?

War would bring out the best in Harry. It would bring all his best features to the forefront, features that had been hidden by the self-deprecation enforced on him from years of neglect. As Luna watched him walk towards her she only hoped that the future would come out as she had seen.
