Wall – Fred II
His dad had warned him about the wall outside the room of requirement at Hogwarts.
"It's where... A lot of people died." He had told Fred. "Your uncle Percy nearly died there." He whispered.
Young Fred knew that his Uncle Fred, his dad's twin, his namesake, had died there.
When he got to Hogwarts he found the wall. It seemed the same as all the other walls in the castle to him. Nothing special seemed to stand out about it.
Fred spent an hour at the wall once, just trying to see what all the fuss was about, to see if he could capture the essence of his Uncle.
It never worked.
He felt nothing when he was there. The only significance it had was a small plaque in the centre with his name on it. Well, not his name. A different him. One that was long gone.
Fred always seemed to end up at the wall when he wandered the castle in his free time, when he needed to think.
Sometimes, he spoke to his uncle, asked him what to do with his life.
Occasionally, he thought he heard someone answer his questions. Someone who sounded exactly like his father...
