All Harry Potter characters and concepts belong to J.K. Rowling, not to me!
Yet Another Halloween – Fifth Chapter – Yet Another Halloween.
Yet another Halloween came, and he felt just the same as the one before.
Or so he thought at the beginning. He was wise, nothing less, but he could not expect this. He had many thoughts of how it might have happened, but they were guesses only – for now, at least.
His steps were the only noise left in the dark street. He stopped and turned back, only to see the cat disappear into the shadows while he took out of his pocket his Deluminator and clicked it, bringing back the lights to the street.
Lily and James Potter died – and the reasoning, so wrong… He would admit to himself that he felt a little ashamed and guilty for not putting on better security, better guard on them – maybe, just maybe, they would have been alive today too…
Harry survived though. This thought made the old man feel wide awake, although the late hour. Harry, a baby about a year old, managed to make the most evil wizard of all times disappear completely, leaving nothing behind. All day long, since he heard the news, he could not stop thinking about it – how? What had the boy done?
Poor Lily and James… they will never get to grow their beloved child, he will have to withstand these aunt and uncle who will surely be disgusted of him and his magic, unable to understand why his parents are not the ones there for him instead… What a way to live – but that is only for the short time of eleven years… only eleven years… At least that's what he told himself to keep his conscious clean.
Giving Private Drive no. 4 a last glimpse, he could only wait until the answer will come to him, not now, but surely one day... "Good luck, Harry," he mumbled to no one, disapperating with the flicker of his cloak. The last Halloween hadn't been any interesting, but this time change has come – it won't be the same next year, and so forth, yet not for another Halloween.
