Before I knew it, the battle was over and everyone was cheering and I was so happy, hardly paying attention to who won and who didn't, but where were you – and then I saw you.

The moment the green hits me, my vision changes as if I'm looking through a kaleidoscope. Everything blurs, and before I know it, I'm on the ground. I can't see it – can only feel it – hard and cold underneath me. My head is throbbing and my heart is stinging, and everything is changing – but not now, not yet, give me time – because Remus has died, Tonks has died, Fred has died, and I will never forget the pain – the struggle in Ginny's eyes as she realized her brother was gone. I need to tell her I'm sorry, need to tell Draco I love him, need to hug my mother one last time, but all I can see is green, and my breath is coming in ragged, shallow, gasps, and the sensation of being at the centre of an explosion is replaying – over – and over –

No more him. No more light.
