Many apologies for the extremely late update but between school and writer's block and...laziness I just could not write this. I basically forced myself to write this so it's pretty...well...shit. Not to worry, that's why I posted two chapters. I'm sure you'll be a lot more satisfied with the next one lol.
Anyway I'm sorry to all you Sherman fans out there but that bloke is really hard to write about. Mah don't kill me but feel free to constructively criticise. So here it is...enjoy.
Sherman 1918
Sherman had just gotten back from the 'great war' two weeks before and he continued to have nightmares about it. The noise, the destruction and the senseless killing had stayed with him when he just wished he could forget.
'Sherm buddy, are you alright?'
Sherman looked up at his old friend George. They hadn't seen each other for four years and when George heard that Sherman was back from the war he invited him to the pub for a party. But Sherman wasn't in the mood for partying; he wanted to go home to sleep.
'Yeah I'm fine, just thinking.' Sherman looked around the pub at all his old friends. They had remained the same during his time away but Sherman had changed. Before he left for the war Sherman was just a naïve 15-year-old with a head full of dreams. Now he was 19 and felt completely alienated. Although there was one thing about himself that Sherman was glad hadn't changed, his passion for medicine.
Watching all those men die on the front lines had, if anything strengthened Sherman's resolve to become a doctor. He desperately wanted to help sick people and as he sat at the bar on that celebratory day, Sherman decided that once he got over the initial shock of death, destruction and war out of his system he would go to college.
George returned to the bar and eyed his friend. 'Are you sure you're alright Sherm?'
For the first time since he had returned to America Sherman smiled. 'Yeah, now where's that drink George?'
There you go my abysmally bad Potter chapter. Please just read the next chapter before you pass judgement.
Next chapter...Frank!
