The Rise and Fall of Chivalry
By Jessica Shade
Prologue: The Fall of Chivalry
It was all a blur in his mind.
A scream.
Heat. Maybe fire?
A deep-seated pain.
His mind tried to sort out the images and feelings rushing through his head.
He tried to focus on something, anything, amidst the chaos, but it was all too much.
He needed him. He couldn't find him. Where was he?
Where was who?
The answer evaded him. Who was he looking for? Why was he here?
How was he here?
A stabbing pain.
His back felt like fire.
He couldn't think beyond the pain.
Another scream.
His voice joined in. Or perhaps it had been his voice the whole time? He couldn't tell.
His vision began to fade. Then finally, his wearied body fell to into the abyss, and he welcomed the sweet oblivion.

Sorry. I know. I'm starting another fic and I haven't updated my others in months. And each of them only have one chapter…but I promise you this one has up to chapter 2 written out and 2 others in the revising stage!
This fic was originally an original short story for my English class…but well…I decided to cut it up, stick it in the cyber blender, throw in a bit of HP …and wa-la! The beginnings of my very own novel length fic!
Like always, I appreciate reviews!
