Voldemort's Death
I screamed. I am filled with a fury I do not understand.
Why? Why am I screaming? Why am I angry? Bellatrix.. dead. Why do I care? I shouldn't care.. I never care. I didn't care when Severus, my servant, died. I killed him. He had never failed me. Not like her. She failed me many times.. Disappointed me many times. So why..? Why do I scream only for her??? For no one else.. only her. WHY??!!!
My arm acted of it's own accord. Finding her killer immediately. The killing curse comes without thought. My fury is raised to the point of recklessness. My wrath takes over me. I only wish to kill whoever killed her.
"Avada Kedavra."
I am angry. I am happy. I will kill her. I will kill her.
"Protego!!" Someone shouts. My killing curse bounces off harmlessly. I turn around in anger. I will kill them too!!!
He rips off his invisibility coak. Harry Potter. Harry Potter!! In that moment my anger for her killer disappears. Momentarily forgotten. The boy I thought dead is alive! The Boy Who Lived. Not for much longer! All my thoughts center on him. Pushed to the back of my mind is the anger I do not understand.
We fight. He wins.
Only as I myself lay dying do I once more think about her. My most faithful and devoted servant.. Bellatrix.. My previous anger at her death.. Only her death. I don't understand. Why do I care only about you? Why do I think only about you?? Even as I am dying, by the hands of my mortal enemy.. I think only of you!!!
I am… sad. For only in death have I thought of you this much. Perhaps I took for granted your almost slave-like devotion to me. Perhaps I thought I would have eternity. Perhaps I simply never acknowledged the tuggings at the back of my mind that had formed long ago yet I had forced myself to never accept.
Bellatrix.
I finally understand. Only now, when I am freed from my own bonds, can I accept it. Only dead, can I say the things I could never say to you.
Only dead--only now, can I love you.
"See you in hell.."
Only in death do they find salvation..
A/N: Do you think I should make the first chapter as long as this one?
