Hey guys..so this is the last chapter..but not the end of the story..this
chapter is short and then there is a short epilogue...don't cry on me, kk?!
And keep in mind the questions I ask at the end of this chapter.
Jes Chapter 14: Parting is Such Sweet Sorrow Hermione attended the funeral where she wore a black dress and a cast on her arm. She waited as the Minister gave God's blessing and then each of the Weasley's got a turn to talk about Percy. When Ron got up he made eye contact with Hermione and Harry and smiled a wobbly smile which they returned. He started by speaking about all the times Percy had tested his temper. There was the time Percy wouldn't let him leave their Hotel room because Fred and George had stolen his Head Boy badge so they could "improve it". Hermione smiled as she remembered this story. There was the time Percy has told on Ron for stealing his quill. Ron recounted not speaking to his brother for the whole week he had been grounded. "...But my brother was also there for me when I needed him. When I was little he fixed my cuts if Mum wasn't around and when the wind howled too loud he gave me ice cream, if if I wasn't supposed to have it," he started crying as he continued. "...and he made me smile when I got my heart broken," Hermione looked in his eyes and shook her head. "I sorry," she mouthed, squeezing Draco's hand lightly. He smiled at her in reply and turned back to everyone else. "Percy had taught me more than I will ever learn at school. He was the nerdiest" here he paused for people to chuckle their agreement, "and most caring brother I could have asked for. Trust me, I know it must have been hard for him to earn that title because I have four other brothers he had to compete with. But they all stand out as excellent in their own ways." He turned to look at his family behind him. "Being in such a big family led me to complain a lot because everything I got was always used. All my clothes were hand-me-downs, even my first wand. But this is the only thing I've gotten of my own for my entire life and I'm going to take advantage of that. I want everyone to know how lucky I was to have been born into this family and to have Percy as my big brother. I never got to tell him how much he meant to me, and that is my only regret as I say good-bye to brother, Percy." He stepped down from the podium. The organ started up again and the coffin was carried down the isle followed by all the guests shuffling slowly and sadly behind it towards the graveyard.
FIN
ok, here I want to clear up some things people have been saying..people keep asking why Percy is there and how these people got there and everything..Percy (I said this before) came with dumbledore etc. He got killed because it was the classic 'someone jumps in front of the bullet' scene..k?
any other questions please e-mail me and rememeber that it isn't over...there's a little more.
MY QUESTIONS!
I want to ask some questions right now you can answer here (in a review) or in a e-mail me and I urge you to answer..it will help with my writing!..It would be helpful if you answered with a paragraph or a few sentences not just a yes or no. First, What did you think of this fic. What was good what was bad what might you have changed it given the power? Favourite parts or styles and least favourite. Dot not answer this question until the fic is complete because your answer way change when you see the whole finished work. Second, would you be interested in a possible sequel to this fic? I'm not saying it's definitely happening but it's something I've been sitting on. Third, I am planning possibly writing a Lily/James fic and I wanted to know if anyone would want to do some Beta work with that for me and also how many of you might want to be reading that.
