DISCLAIMER - I own nothing
Payback
Cold, darkness, like ice, like death, swirling, taking my breath away…
They near, their laughter mocking me…
"Look here pig-boy. Here at Smeltings – you play by our rules…'
Laughter, sticks twirling…
"Harry? What are you doing?" squeaks out of my mouth into the lifeless air…
They come closer still… I stand before them arrogantly...
"In this school, you've got to prove your worth, no little playground bullies here…" they say.
Smelting Sticks come closer, inches from contact…
Hands shove… I'm stumbling…
"Harry!" the cold, like snow… but its summer… has to be his fault… "Harry, make it stop!"
I take a swing at whomever, whatever is near me… ripping the happiness from my life…
'No more please!" my head screams.
I don't want to relive being left naked in the middle of school… then what followed.
I shudder and collapse in shock…
