Not long after Lupin left me it began to rain.

Rain poured over the dark sky, thunder shook, the air turned cold. It reminded me of my last vist to Azkaban, to see Bellatrix that was before she escaped.

My dark hair was glued to my face, my clothes were heavy . . . Lupin’s words floated around my brain, poking me and jabbing me . . .

What could I do? Harry was lucky to be alive as it is! I sighed, my breath puffed out in the icy air.

This is it . . . I’m leaving Hogwarts, forever.

I didn’t bother packing, my clothes they would give, my dark-belongings will be placed under lock-and-key, and my friends . . . well Lupin will hate me, but the others would get over it . . . okay, only Lily and James will – whatever.

    A poem I made long ago . . . before my life was flipped around came to me,

‘I got my friends

I got the night

My wands in my pocket, ready to fight

But since my friends are good we take flight

One day they will be gone

And I will battle the evil alone . . .

For now though, we run on our own.’

It doesn’t rhyme much but it didn’t need to, I remember those days . . . I remember wanting a friend so badly . . . but being alone.

“Being alone is a good thing! Why would anyone need friends? To steal from you, to blame you, to always knock you down if something happens? You stupid girl! Friends are nothing but a myth, a made up fairy tale.”

Voldemort had told me that years ago . . . maybe he was always right.
