The Flame Consumes All.....Don't Let it Consume You, Too.....
Draco and Harry stared at each other. Draco smirked.
"Scared, Potter?" he asked in cruel remembrance of their second year dueling club.
Harry also smirked. "You wish."
Hermione ignored them both, concentrating on her own thoughts. 'One of them will die.....but who.....' She stared first at Draco, remembered how he had first approached her, what he said.
"I can give you power money, love, Hermione.....I can give you everything you desire, if you'll just give one thing to me....." It was true that she was sick of being the bushy-haired, studious little witch. She fingered a lock of straight, smooth cinnamon hair. But did it really have to come to this – mindless killing, torturing for fun.....
She turned her eyes instead on Harry, still kneeling in the dirt next to Ron.
Ron.....Hermione's heart contracted painfully. 'Harry's best friend.....and used to be mine, too!' He eyes roved over Ron's dirty red hair, his pale skin, caked with dirt. He was hurting – from a spell she had casted on him! She squeezed her eyes shut, letting the memories play over her again.
'Ron, you should be studying!'
'Aw, Hermione, it's Christmas.....'
Tears formed in her eyes, and she stared finally at Harry. He was staring back at her. Not pleadingly, just sadly. At that moment, she knew she had the power to end his life with two simple words if she wanted to. She kept her eyes blank. Her anger built. She raised her wand. She knew who was going to die.
"AVADA KEDAVRA!!!"
