Choices
Choice forty one: Peter
For six months I've been involved in the Order of the Phoenix and its one of the best decisions I've ever made. Along with all my friends and some new ones we're getting information on Death Eaters to try and stop the evil lord.
But something has happened and maybe it shouldn't have. I'm still as weak as I ever was, I don't see myself as anything good. My friends they are strong and they're heroes me I'm just a tag along. I use to follow them in Hogwarts and now I follow them around in the real world.
Things though are changing so much and as much as nobody wants to admit it we're losing the war. As many Death Eaters as we take there are always more to take their place. No matter what happens every June Dumbledore releases newly qualified witches and wizards to the world and a number join the forces of Voldemort.
My world too is changing and everything that I once believed in is now altered. The coach of the falcons is a man named Arthur, Arthur Meriwether. When I joined I didn't know of his background or anything about his political beliefs but I do now.
He cornered me along with three of the players and I was scared, very scared. They told me that unless I do what they want me to they would kill me. Before I knew it I was taken somewhere by Portkey.
I found myself in a room alone with the four of them and then he entered. The evil lord that I have feared for so long stood in front of me. He knew that I was involved with the Order I think he had worked out that Dumbledore was running it and that he had recruited my friends and that I would have joined with them.
He told me that if I didn't join him he would kill me, and I knew it to be true he had killed so many already and I would just be another on the list. I didn't want to die like I said I'm weak and so I did what he asked me. I became his spy I chose to change sides. I'd like to say that I didn't have a choice in the matter but I know deep down I did, but a choice between living and dying isn't much of a choice at all.
