Promises

------------------------------------------------------------------
There are Death Eaters all around me.
He gestures and they form a circle.
I step into it, small and scared.
I am not ready.
And he knows it.
The battle begins. Curses cast, hexes thrown.
I hold my own.
I stand firm, believing in my power.
But it cannot last.
And it doesn't.
I begin to falter.
A hex slices a line across my cheek, leaving behind a line of blood.
A curse hits my left arm, thrown up as an impromptu shield, rendering it useless.
A stunner flies by my head.
Then I see it. The green light. And I see it hit my shield.
And go through it.
I close my eyes.
Goodbye.
I guess I won't be keeping those promises after all.
