Shrieking Shack

'And nor can I. Do...iy doesnt get us anywhere. We would still fight and hate each other for what we arem'

"I'm sorry then. I hate to hurt you.... Why can't life go back to simpler times? Back when we were just kids in love?" He looked up at her with pained eyes. "Why?"

I get unsteadily to my feet and walk over to him, reaching up and placing my hand on his cheek, looking into his eyes. 'Because.' I eventually say. 'We have ti grow up. We have to make mistakes and change and find ourselves. God, death, if I could go back and make myself change...I would. If I could go back and stop this hurt, stop everything, I could.'

"Why can't there be a way to not have a care? I'm tired of this pain, this frustration."

'To care is to be human'

"Then maybe I don't want to live anymore. There's nothing good to live for right now anyway. Besides you, but you don't really care anymore, do you?"

'i dont care? how can you even say that? Death, yiu stupid boy... you own whatver is left of my broken heart.'

"You have a very weird way of showing it then," he snapped.

'And you dont?'

"I'm trying to save your ass, if you'd listen to me long enough."

'Im listening.'

"I need you to help me in faking your death. If Crouch thinks you're dead then that will get him off your back and mine. As much as you love your brother there comes a time where you just have to leave. Let him live his life and stop trying to change him."

'I gave up trying to change him. I stole his magic, death. and in return...Raven stole mine. Its over. everything is over. Even if you dont kill me...One of Crouches minions will...and I am defenceless.'

"No one will be trying to kill you if they think you're already dead," he pointed out gently.

'And what am i meant to do after I disapear, death?' I ask quietly. 'What, i disappear to a different place, change my name, live as a muggle...never come back, never see anyone I care about again?'

He shook his head. "No, god, no. I don't know what you'll do. I can help though. I'm not going to leave you unless you want me to."


OOC God, he's a hypocrite

'I never wanted you to leave me in the first place.'

He sighed. "Okay, we need to talk then. What are we going to do? I can't make an enemy of Crouch, but I won't listen to the demands of a mad man."

'Cant you leave him without being an enemy? '

"No. If I leave he'll see me as just that: a traitor to the Death Eaters. Though, in his defense, I would be just that."

'Voldemorts dead, death. that means that there are no Death eaters. that has finished.'

"He may be dead but that doesn't mean the Death Eaters are."

'No, but they should be finished! They have nothing left to stand for!'

"Yes we do! Just because the founder is dead doesn't mean that the ideals are dead too."

OOC Crouch: "Yeah Death, RESPECT!" *does Death Eater gang sign*
