Chapter 1: Watching As We Fall, And Never Come Back
I watch as he falls, so gracefully arcing through the veil. The laughter had not quite lifted from his face as the fear settled in. His mouth settled into an "O" shape as he realized he would die, or whatever happens to happen to behind the veil. He tried to give me a last bit of wisdom before he left, but he was gone just as he started to say something. I looked around and ran toward the veil, but Professor Lupin stopped me.
"Harry he's gone."
But I had yet to believe that. "BUT HE"S JUST GONE THROUGH WE CAN STILL GET HIM!"
"Harry… he's gone…." Remus said.
"NOOOOOOOOO!" I wailed, when all of a sudden, I felt a burst of magic so powerful, it knocked Remus back into a wall, while I was free to run toward the veil. I ran and jumped right through, as Remus got up and screamed.
It was a strange experience, falling through the veil. It was like floating, but falling at the same time, and there were whispers all around me. It was like you were alive, yet inside I felt a burning desire to die, because I couldn't see Sirius. Not even one more time. I couldn't see the humor, or the sadness, or the haunting look behind his stormy grey eyes, not once more. I couldn't hear the rich sound of him laughing at one of my jokes, not even one more time. And it saddened me that he couldn't remember living in a world where he wasn't free. And it was depressing when I realized that Moony was all alone. He was the last of the Marauders (not counting Peter), and he would be alone, so utterly alone, that it pained me to never see smile again. And as I'm falling, I get a picture, of seeing my parents, and of Sirius, and one day everyone else that I have loved. Until I'm pulled backwards, like I'm falling towards the sky, and I hit the floor, and revel in my darkness of reality.
