The Last Chapter
Epilogue
"The memories you build on the house on the hill, would you really change a thing? Corrected mistakes in a World Full of hate, never changes anything."
-Dropkick Murphys, World Full of Hate (Blackout 2003)
When Harry lost Sirius he looked for him as a ghost, he never took Nearly Headless Nick's words seriously. The words that, "He won't come back"? It didn't mean anything to Harry now, but it should have meant more when he was living.
Still Harry is neither here, nor there, like Nick, but he has more of a home then he ever did have. For now Harry is with his mother, father and Sirius like meant to be. He missed Ron and Hermione a lot, but they would meet up with him eventually... when they "wondered out of site", as Luna would have said.
Harry never took time to realize that his friends were his greatest strength.... He found that in the seven long years that they were together, they made his life bearable. Harry had fallen in love with Luna the day before the final Battle, but he never got to tell anyone...
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
As the flairs of the Final Battle died down not one had even took time to count the dead... They not only lost their foe, but they lost their savior too... He saved us from Voldemort....
The last beams of light separated the living from the deceased. No one knew that about 1,000 lives were lost through out the battle...
Ron searched the grounds for Harry, and he found him... Lying in a pool of blood, for when he hit the ground he had suffered a busted scull... But he was dead before that, right?
He touched the lightning bolt scar on the forehead of his best friend and felt a jolt, that soon muggle and wizards alike would all feel. Ron looked at his hand and saw that there was a lightning bolt etched into the palm of his hand.
So everyone that survived the final battle were to remember the hero that saved them... And with the lightning bolt scar came the knowledge of the final battle. For the scar was the sign of love, for everyone and Harry Potter alike... They'll remember the lightning bolt scar.

The tale of Harry Potter and the lightning bolt scar became a legend almost instantly. Instead of the boring History of Magic classes they were taught by Professor Binns about all the great things Harry Potter had done.
Almost 100 years after the battle Harry was reunited with all of his friends... He finally told Luna he loved her, and he discovered that Ron and Hermione had had three children together. He named two of the boys James and Harry and the girl Lilly.
Neville and Ginny also got married and had two kids, a boy and a girl. They named the girl, Elizabeth Ginny Longbottom and the boy, Frank Neville Adam Longbottom.
When Harry finally met them he was pleased to meet them and he told them the story of the final battle. Harry only wished he lived longer so he could have carried out the Potter's name for a new generation.
And in death Harry noticed that no one cared about his lightning bolt scar.
