(~•.•)~*.*Battle of Hogwarts .*.~(•.•~)

Green and red lights shot past Remus from all directions. He dodged all of them and retaliated with his own curses. His concentration was great, but his thoughts wondered back to his wife and son. He hoped they'd be alright by themselves. The stream of Death Eaters seemed to be thinning where he was, they probably also had orders to find Harry and capture him, but not kill him.

As Remus finished off the Death Eater in front of him, he heard a women's voice amongst the explosions and the screaming that was all around him.

"Remus!?" the women cried. Remus could tell she'd been crying from her strained voice. And as Tonks's face emerged out from the dust, tear streaks were fresh on her pale face.

"Remus!" Tonks cried happily when she saw him. Remus smiled to, he didn't want her to be there, but she was willing to risk her life to fight with him, that was all he could ever ask for.

"Tonks!" Remus called to her. He started to run towards her, hitting their enemies as he went. Tonks started to run as well, wanting to feel his arms around her, holding her close once again.

Remus had almost reached her, so very close, but the deadly green light got there first. It hit Tonks square in the back. She fell limply into Remus's arms, her mouth open in a small smile, eyes open but glassy, and unseeing. Her body sagged as he held her up, not wanting to believe that she'd just died in his arms.

"Tonks! Tonks no!" Remus screamed in anger and sadness as he lay her on her back. Her hair brown, unseeing eyes light blue, "Tonks please don't be dead. Wake up, wake up!" But his plea's remained unanswered.

Tears started to slowly pour down his face, but soon turned into a non-stop flow of emotion and regret. Even thought he could see it with his eyes, Remus said in his mind that she wasn't gone, she was just 'sleeping'.

He stroked her cheek; just like he used to do to wake her in the mornings.

He traced her lips; the ones he used to kiss lovingly.

And he placed his hand over her heart; the one that used to beat, in time with his.

Lost and blinded by his loss, Remus didn't noticed the Death Eater sneaking up behind him. It was only when the light flashed green, that he knew he'd be sleeping with her again. Only this time, it was for longer.

Let's call the time, eternity.........
