House of Cards
Severus stood amongst the people that thought he was one of them and looked at the man who at that moment was waiting to die. If for nothing else, I want to kill him for placing me in this situation! "Severus…please…" 'Please?' That's all he can say? He has just damned my soul with one word and he doesn't even have the decency to look ashamed! I hate you Dumbledore. In this moment I hate you and it is possible that I may never forgive you for what you are forcing me to do. Thank you for that at least because I doubt I would have been able to power this curse with a little 'encouragement.' "Avada Kevdavra." Severus watched as Dumbledore body flew over the battlements full with the knowledge that he had just killed the only man in the world who had ever had a kind thought about him. It was almost enough to make him break down right there, but there was a mission to complete. He had to get Draco out of Hogwarts and he had to report to the Dark Lord what he had done this night.
