Part 1: Epilouge
"Oh god no..." the muffled whimper escaped the young man's dry lips, "Not now, no, please, don't leave me...not like this..." His eyes were heavy lidded and dark circles rimmed his tired eyes. He brushed his large hand roughly through his fiery red hair in frustration and grief causing it to fall densely over his sweat encompassed forehead.
Several dark clumps of dried blood hung loosely from his crimson locks.
He gripped his hands gently but firmly around the young woman's body; he held her up off the cold hard floor so he could gaze silently into her soulful eyes.
He could feel her every struggling breath as her body trembled with each attempt to suck in that crucial amount of air, needed to give her body life.
Tears were beginning to well in the woman's half closed eyes and slow trickle of thick red blood had started to ooze from the left corner of her tiny tender mouth.
"Ro..." The women began, but the words became gurgled as she choked on her own blood.
Her small fragile body arched suddenly upwards, causing the dark haired beauty to go into violent spasms, of a frightening nature.
Then as abruptly as it had begun the attacks came to a complete stop. Her body fell limp and lifeless in the young mans arms.
"NO!!!" The man cried out, a cry so terrifying and mournful that echoed throughout the deserted rooms and corridors of the old school.
He shook his precious love roughly in hopes that he could force life back into her.
He gently lowered her to the ground some time later, but felt his hands reach down, for fear of letting go and never being able to recover. He softly cupped her now cold and comatose cheeks, bringing their lips together one last time.
"I will always love you..." He whispered almost silently into her ear.
"Someway or somehow, we will be together again. I will find you, even if I am searching until the end of time and it leads me to the deeper most evilest depths of hell, I will find you, and we shall be one for eternity."
He lifted his dilapidated and broken wand from the ground and raised it up near his head.
"AVADA KEDAVRA!" he screamed, and then all went black...
