Epilogue – The Beginning of the End

            Moony howled in agony over the loss of his cubs. The huge black dog sitting next to Moony was trying to help but nothing helped. The wolf began to attack everything, even himself to try to stop the pain, but he wouldn't attack the dog. The dog had enough to worry about without Moony attacking him.

            For the past two months Remus had to spend a week in the Hospital Wing after his transformations. The wolf was angry and upset at himself and therefore Moony tore himself up making Remus look like he'd been through a minefield. Sirius was also a little quieter these past few weeks. Harry, Ron, and Hermione were upset at the disappearance of their friends but they were more concerned with Remus and Sirius. They couldn't understand why those two were so upset about the whole ordeal it wasn't like they were really attached to the girls or anything.

            The only person that didn't look affected by the disappearance of Eve and Elizabeth was Professor Dumbledore. He acted like everything was fine in fact he didn't ever seem concerned.

            But it probably should be explained what exactly was found the night of the battle, so I'll inform you.

                                    *                                  *                                  *

            Remus Lupin was up in Dumbledore's office, along with Sirius and Megan, explaining how he had gotten to the Headmasters office. Right in the middle of his explanation a sharp pain hit him in the chest and he fell over in agony. But as quickly as it came it went without really lasting more then a few seconds but its impact was growing. Remus' wolf instincts immediately kicked in and he fled from the office dreading what he was going to find. Sirius, Megan, and Dumbledore headed after him but none of them caught up to him until they reached a clearing in the Forbidden Forest, which was populated by a handful of remaining Death Eaters. Before any of the Death Eaters could flee Dumbledore froze them with the intention of turning them into the Ministry of Magic.

            Remus looked around the clearing frantically. He could smell them but he couldn't find them, when he reached the middle of the clearing however he wanted to die. He could smell the girls, Voldemort and Death.

            "Noooooo! You can't be gone…..you told me you'd be safe!" Remus pleaded to the sky.

            Sirius with a heavy heart led Remus back up to the school and to the Hospital wing. Madame Pomfrey gave Remus a cheerup potion so that Remus wouldn't do anything stupid and sent him off to bed. 

            Dumbledore thoroughly searched the clearing and discovered that Voldemort had challenged the twins to a duel and the killing curse had been cast but there were no bodies left behind. This one fact caused Dumbledore to believe that no one died, but he could not be sure.

            Two days after Eve and Elizabeth had disappeared Professor Megan Fireoza mysteriously left Hogwarts as well. No one really thought much about this but it did seem a little out of place. Since both Defense Professor's were unavailable, Defense Against the Dark Arts was cancelled for the rest of the year.

            The school year came to a close and Harry went home to number four Privet Drive with a heavy heart for two reasons. He never did like leaving Hogwarts but this year was the worst. Not only did he have to put up with the Dursley's but he also had to deal with yet another loss over the summer. But in the brighter side it was believed that Voldemort was killed that night as well, but no one could really be sure since Harry had supposedly killed Voldemort when he was a baby.

            "Don't worry you can't get rid of me that easily. I'll be back I can promise you all that!"

            Well that's it…..THE END! I know this is short, kinda sad and gives you no real information what so ever, but I don't care. This is how I want it to end since I will be writing a sequel. It'll be a little while before I begin posting the sequel so if you want you can e-mail me for information. I'll also be writing a sort of prequel but it'll be all from Sirius' point of view but that also won't be out for a little while. Well anyway I hope you all enjoyed the story and until next time……………ENJOY!
