HP Midnight Light

- October 1998, 5 - Hogsmeade

The Pig's Head Bar was blocked, and the reinforcements who heard the news were unable to enter Hogwarts because the passage was closed from the inside.

"I guess the last ones in closed the passage so that the Death Eaters couldn't break right into the castle from here."

"Yes, but we haven't heard from inside for a long time!"

"Stop! Stop arguing! We have three options." Bee Duke's boss opened a map and pointed, "First, we can forcefully break through the remaining bridge, but the Death Eaters will definitely find out. We; second, we can go around Hogwarts from behind the Shrieking Shack, but we don't know what ambushes will be in this way; Enter the castle."

People chattered and chatted, but no one noticed that the woman sitting in the corner had quietly pushed the door out.

Hyacinth hadn't been to Hogsmeade in over 20 years, but she still remembered the way to the Shrieking Shack.

When she climbed out of the fence in the backyard of the Pig's Head, she couldn't help thinking of how Sirius, James, Remus and the traitor Peter took her sneaking into the attic to eavesdrop on the Slytherin students and the Death Eaters. conversation of disciples.

She felt a tingling in her heart, but the tingling was quickly replaced by tension——

"Avada Kedavra!" She had just approached the hillside where the Shrieking Shack was, when a green light suddenly hit a grass field in front of her, she heard the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground, and at the same time a black Ying jumped out and ran forward like crazy.

"Grab him!" cried another. "We should have hit one."

Two or three came briskly in this direction with their wands held high, and more rushed forward in pursuit of the fleeing man.Hyacinth held her breath and crawled behind a bush.

"There is someone here." The light of the wand illuminated a piece of grass outside the bushes, and Hyacinth lay on the ground, watching them through the gaps in the branches, "Is he dead?"

Someone bent over and checked: "Dead. A Gryffindor student."

"It seems that he wants to sneak back to join the battle." The person in front sneered and kicked the limp corpse, "You, go and check to see if there is anyone hiding behind it."

A man made a low yes, and walked behind the bushes with his wand raised.

Hyacinth gripped her wand tightly.

The man walked around the bushes, and Hyacinth saw her face clearly—

Betty.

She opened her mouth to scream, but Hyacinth had her wand pointed straight at her face.

you owe me.She said with her lips.

Betty's eyes widened, her lips trembling violently.

"What's going on?" Hyacinth recognized Crabbe's voice this time. "What the hell are you doing there?"

Hyacinth stared into Betty's face, her heart pounding.

"There's nothing here," she said finally. "They probably didn't bring anyone else."

"Is that so?" Crabbe asked doubtfully. "Let me—"

At this time, another small voice came from behind, and Hyacinth was so nervous that she almost fainted. She clenched her wand tightly and thought about the possibility of hitting with one blow.But a small ginger-colored figure had walked around her and walked outside.

"Meow."

"A cat?" Crabbe stopped walking. "It stands to reason that there can't be a cat here..."

"Lucius!" Someone shouted from a distance, "Master wants to see you."

"Okay, don't waste time getting stuck with a cat." Lucius Malfoy ordered, "Just leave him here and let's go back."

Betty gave her a deep look, then turned back to Crabbe.Hyacinth heard a rustling sound, and they walked away while talking.

At last they were out of sight, and Hyacinth crept around to the bushes to find the dead man.It was a Gryffindor boy in a fourth or fifth year, and from their conversation she guessed that the boy was underage and planning to slip back into battle.

A shiny badge on her school uniform caught her attention, and Hyacinth stooped to remove it. The words "Potter Must Win" were engraved in gold on the red badge.

At least it wasn't painful for him to go.she thought.I don't know if the other person escaped or not.

The cat that had saved her life just now came to her feet and looked up at her.

"Brookshaw." Hyacinth whispered in a trance, "Brookshaw..."

"Meow." It glanced back at her, and galloped forward with small steps.

Hyacinth trotted along behind it, and she didn't know how it knew the way, but it led her unharmed all the way around the Forbidden Forest to the other end of it - Hyacinth Far From a distance, I saw that the castle was surrounded by soaring flames, and the sound of roaring and roaring came from afar.

However, at this time, the cat that looked like Brookshaw suddenly disappeared.There was a weak gasp from the bushes not far away.

"Is there anyone there?" she asked tentatively in a low voice.

The intermittent groans stopped, and a very familiar voice asked back: "Are you one of us?"

"Remus?"

"Hyatings?" After a while, Remus came out from behind the tree, his face was pale, his left arm was wrapped in a bloody bandage, "Why are you here?" He stared at her in disbelief , and continued, "You should get out of here quickly, it's too dangerous! The Death Eaters are not far away, and—"

Hyacinth interrupted to hand him the badge that had been taken from the dead boy: "There was a boy killed by Death Eaters, near the Shrieking Shack. I found this on his clothes. "

Remus froze, he looked down at the badge with the words "Potter must win".

"I decided to come here after I thought it through." Hyacinth clarified, "So, how is the situation now?"

"Very bad." Remus looked serious, and he motioned for her to come over. Only then did Hyacinth realize that there was a semi-conscious person lying on the grass behind the tree, "Do you remember him? Dorje. His The condition is not very good."

"Poor old Dorje."

They fell silent.Remus kept dripping white fresh water on Dorje's wound, but the effect was negligible. Obviously, this required professional medical personnel to treat it.

"He won't last long." Hyacinth tried Dorje's breath.

"Hyatings," Remus whispered, "you really shouldn't have come back." He stopped and sighed, "You might die here."

"I know." Hyacinth replied softly, "I have no intention of leaving here alive." She looked at Remus thoughtfully, "Nineteen years ago, we couldn't get married because of fate; In the end, we couldn't get married because life and death were separated." She smiled, hiding all her sadness behind a hypocritical mask.

Just as Remus was about to answer, there was a sound of heavy footsteps in the woods.He fell silent for a moment, and pointed his two wands at the dark forest. A moment later, a pink-haired witch came out with another person on her back.

"Who are you?" she asked, staring at Hyacinth.

"An acquaintance." Remus explained on his behalf, "Hyase, this is my wife Dora."

Hyacinth blinked her eyes to hide her astonishment, while Dora eyed her curiously at the same time.

"What happened to her?" Remus asked.

"I don't know, it should be some kind of black magic." Dora looked away and put the girl on the ground, "She is dying."

"Doge too." Remus said worriedly, "I can't stop his blood." Dora approached him and shook Remus's hand firmly, and Hyacinth looked down at the dying girl.

"You need to get back to the castle as soon as possible."

"Yes." Remus put down the cloth in his hand to wipe Dorje's sweat, "but there are almost a hundred dementors hovering in front of us, and we have no way to break through."

"I can go."

Both Remus and Dora turned to look at her at the same time.

"No."

"You can't handle them."

"I guess the dementors won't have any effect on me." Hyacinth pointed to her heart, "They have no way of smelling happiness from me."

Remus' lips lost all color in an instant.

"It's been that way since two years ago."

Dora looked at the two of them in turn in bewilderment, as if waiting for an explanation.

"That's impossible……"

"Call God to protect you!" Hyacinth pointed at the deserted night and shouted, but she didn't respond at all. She lowered her arms and turned her head to avoid Remus' sight under the surprised eyes of Lupine and his wife. "I'm not happy." memories," she said, gazing at Hogwarts surrounded by flames, "because they all end up being painful or sad."

"Be careful." At last Remus could only say these two words.

Hyacinth was indeed very lucky to pass over a hundred dementors and arrive at the main battlefield of the defense of Hogwarts.As she passed through the swarm of dementors, they all turned to her, as if they smelled the breath of the living, but in the end, none of them chose to pounce.

But soon she witnessed a duel in a corridor outside Hogwarts Castle.

"Avada Kedavra!" A green light flew towards the boy's ears, and Hyacinth immediately decided to change the plan:

"Armor protection!" she yelled, one of Bellatrix's killing spells deflected, and she swept furiously around and found her. "Get out of the way, child." The boy pushed aside while Bella yelled:

"Avada Kedavra!"

"Except your weapons!"

"Thunderbolt explosion!" the boy shouted, pointing at the ceiling alertly.Crushing rocks and dust slanted down, and Hyacinth grabbed the boy's wrist and dragged him around a dead corner:

"Go to Madam Pomfrey, or someone else," she said quickly. "Tell them there's someone in the Forbidden Forest who needs backup—they're dying, so you have to move fast!"

The boy nodded repeatedly.

"I'll deal with Bellatrix, and you lead them into the Forbidden Forest, not a hundred feet behind Hagrid's hut, where they're hiding behind a tree."

"She's dangerous." The boy reminded her—

"Avada Kedavra!"

"Drowsy!" Hyacinth blocked Bella's death curse, "I know, but this is not something you should worry about. You are already very brave, and there are people who need your help."

"I see." He nodded. "Near Hagrid's hut, behind a tree, someone needs support."

Hyacins added: "But there's like a hundred dementors around the front field."

"We can do it," said the boy excitedly.

"What's your name, child?" asked Hyacins.

"Neville, Neville Longbottom."

She froze for a moment, then smiled: "Frank and Alice will be proud of you." Before the boy had time to ask her identity, Hyacinth grabbed her wand and jumped out of their hiding place, " Disarm you!"

"You can't beat me, silly girl!" Bella laughed in her master's mocking voice, "Don't worry, you'll see your Sirius soon."

"It doesn't matter, maybe the Ministry of Magic will be willing to give you and your master a double cell." Hyacinth sneered, "Even if I can't kill you, someone can kill you."

"Okay." Bella laughed loudly, "You have a try—Avada Kedavra!"

"Pansy! Blaise!" Neville yelled, "Come and help!"

"Did you meet Potter?" Pansy asked as Blaise helped set up a few of them.

"I saw him out on the field just now," said Neville worriedly. "I hope he hasn't done something stupid."

"Wait a minute—he's dead." Blaise suddenly exclaimed, and he hurriedly put the man down, "Professor Lupine!"

"Merlin!"

Remus had some dust on his face. He was not injured, but he had stopped breathing.Apart from the uneven furrow between his brows, he looked unusually peaceful, as if he had just fallen into a deep sleep.

"Dolohov did it." Neville's voice was full of sadness and hatred. "He sneaked up on Professor Lupine from behind. He was holding Dorje at the time, so he couldn't parry it."

Neither Pansy nor Blaise could answer a word.

"His name is Colin Creevey, he's only 16 years old. He's the guy who adores Harry so much." Neville said, looking at the other corpse. "He must have slipped back to fight, but... I don't even know who killed him."

"I remember her." Pansy noticed the girl next to Colin, and she felt a weak pain again, "She was the Ravenclaw girl who was petrified in the second year... I remember... she seemed It's Penelope."

"Penello Clearwater." Blaise continued, "Granger was impersonated by her name when she was caught by the special search team." Pansy raised her eyes blankly, and the Weasley family was not far away. Crying with their heads in each other's arms, there is also a person who must be dead lying between them.

"Neville." At this moment Mrs. Longbottom walked quickly towards her grandson, tears still on her face, "She didn't make it through."

Pansy wanted to ask who it was, and then a few men came over with a new body, and they put her next to Lupine.

"Bellatrix did it," said Mrs. Longbottom through gritted teeth. "Dolohov killed her husband in front of her, and then Bellatrix tortured her with the Cruciatus Curse... She was still saying Remus' name when she was carried into the infirmary... she was dead in a few minutes..." She covered her mouth tightly.

"Bellatrix..." Neville paused for a moment, "Wait a minute, have all the bodies outside been brought in?"

Mrs. Longbottom stopped sobbing. She gave Neville a surprised look. "I think so."

"What happened?" Pansy demanded.

"Before when Bellatrix wanted to kill me, another person saved me. She asked me to find someone to support Professor Lupine and the others, but I never saw her again." Neville looked around the whole building. Great Hall, "She may be a resident of Hogsmeade..."

"She'll be fine." Mrs. Longbottom patted her grandson on the shoulder and comforted her.

"How is Dorje?"

"It's okay, he was lucky and got medical treatment in time."

The grandparent and grandson began to talk about the condition of the wounded, and Blaise patted Pansy on the shoulder: "We will continue to fight."

"Yes." Pan Xi frowned, and suddenly felt a sharp pain in her heart. She felt that something was wrong.

"What's wrong with you?" Blaise asked sensitively.

Pansy didn't want to trouble others: "It's nothing."

"Don't you really want to avenge your Sirius?" Bellatrix dragged her from the ground by her hair, and she was almost gone when she pulled the dagger from Hyacinth's shoulder. The feeling of pain, "Come on, pick up your wand and duel with me!"

Her wand was shoved roughly into her hand by Bella.Hyacins barely opened her eyes and saw the face distorted by the stimulation of blood so close at hand, she spat on her suddenly, and Bellatrix burst into a scream: "Crucio! ' she cried, and Hyacinth's body heaved slightly, but she smiled quickly, as if the Cruciatus hadn't caused any pain.

"What are you laughing at!" Bella seemed to be completely irritated, "How dare you!" She stabbed the knife edge into Hyacinth's chest shallowly, and then spun and slowly forced it into her chest bit by bit. Chest, Hyacinth's pupils dilated slightly, and a dying sigh came out of her throat, Bella smiled with satisfaction, "I heard that's how you killed Rozier, right?" She said happily Pulling out the knife abruptly, admiring the dying struggle of the prey.

"Bella." She raised her hand to cover the wound that was still bleeding, feeling a trance before death, "Just as long as you think it's worth it."

She saw Cornelia again in Bellatrix, both of whom had an astonishing obsession with something.Bella loves the Dark Lord just as Cornelia loves power, but at the end of this game of power, they all fall, and no one wins.

How ironic: Bellatrix gave Cornelia the enlightenment about black magic and Death Eaters. She probably didn't know that she had personally trained her greatest opponent in her life, right?

"You won't understand me." Bella squatted down and slashed across her face with a knife again, as if she was carving a work of art. Finally, the blade was on Hyacinth's throat, ready to take her away at any time. life.When Hyacinth saw Cornelia from Bella, she also saw Olivia from her. They were both weak and helpless, and their courage came too late. Picking up Hyacinth, "Fight me!"

She staggered and took a step back, almost falling to the ground, Bella raised her wand coldly and pointed at her: "Now... bow."

"I don't believe you." Hyacinth coughed up blood, "You're like Voldemort—"

"How dare you call him by his name!"

"—no credit either."

"Of course I will keep my promise." A strange smile crossed Bella's face, "If you kill me, you will avenge Sirius; if I kill you, it will be your life."

Hyacinth only heard a few words, and a faint light flashed in her eyes: "You swear?"

"I swear." Bella even trembled comically, as if trying to bow to her, "Turn around now, and we each take ten steps back."

The knife wounds and blood loss had blinded Hyacinth, she only vaguely remembered Bella promising a duel, and she knew she had a chance to avenge Sirius' untimely death.However, at the moment when she turned around without defense, Hyacinth heard Bella's roar cut through the sky: "Avada Kedavra!"

She failed to see the fatal green light, but at this moment, she foresaw Bella's end.

The moment Hyacins fell to the ground, she realized she was dead.When another new midnight fell, when the first day of May alternated with the second, there was no time to think, no time to fight, no time to curse the opponent, she died.

"Sirius." The gray eyes, which were gradually dimming, looked at the starry sky, and the bright star burned her pupils, "There should be no Sirius in summer."

"As I said, I never left you."

She closed her eyes, and a tear slowly rolled down.

-June 5-

When the dust settled, they stood in the foyer and waited for the dawn to illuminate the castle.

"I have something to tell you." Blaise interrupted her contemplation softly.

"what?"

"I'm going to travel to Wales, do you want to come with me?"

Pansy raised her eyebrows and looked at him, Blaise blushed unexpectedly under her gaze, he looked away awkwardly and pretended to be watching Buckbeak flying around the castle: "You know what I mean. "

"For a trip," Pansy replied, "I'm going to go with Violet, to celebrate our unbreakable friendship."

Blaise was stunned for a moment and then quickly answered: "Yes, but you will be tired of aesthetics when you and Violet are always together, right?"

"what do you mean?"

"I mean—" Blaise gritted his teeth and said loudly, "Do you need a boyfriend? The one who can cook French dinner."

"you?"

"I recommend myself." Blaise went all out, "If you are not in short supply now, I can also wait in line to get a number."

Pansy looked at him with wide eyes in surprise: "Are you okay?"

She looked at him like he was looking at a whelk, and it hurt Blaise's pride: "I mean it, Pansy!"

Pansy cast her eyes noncommittally at the two men walking towards them across the field: "Okay, you're a little overexcited now. I think I should help them—"

She rolled up her sleeves and was about to go forward to help Dean Thomas and Seamus Finnigan, but Blaise suddenly pushed her against the wall and kissed her quickly.

"Hey!" Pansy just had time to yell before she was tightly bound by Blaise's arms and couldn't move. She was forced to accept the first real kiss in her life. Pansy wanted to tell Blaise that he bit her. Unfortunately, on the contrary, she tended to enjoy it more, and her cheeks burned at an unbelievable speed, "Okay!" Pansy pushed Blaise away violently, and he licked his lips lightly:

"I'm not a playboy, Pansy," Blaise said, before she could speak. "If you think about it, you'll find out who I really like. I decided to tell you now." Because I didn't know if I'd survive this fight before—"

"You think it would be a burden to me if you died in the war?" Pansy snapped.

Blaise was choked: "Yes!"

"This is ridiculous." Pan Xi said after a while.

"Yeah, we could have settled the relationship at the Christmas ball in the fourth grade, but you chose to invite that Louis!" Blaise accused both aggrieved and angrily, Pansy was dumbfounded, she never knew Blaise is so dramatic, "You and I have been delaying each other for so many years, and now it's time to put an end to everything-can I say two crazy words?"

Pansy's tongue was almost tied up: "Please."

"I've been helping the three of you with ideas and messes over and over again, and it's all because of you! Because I've been looking for something that's really mine, and maybe I look like the kind of guy who blows up girls at parties Man, but when I was with you I found my place, I knew what I wanted, and that's when my world turned upside down." Blaise stopped abruptly, and he looked at Pan pleadingly. Xi, "Look, I've completely lost face."

"Well, can I say something crazier?"

"what?"

"will you marry me?"

"Then can I say something even crazier?" Blaise shook his head, "Of course!"

Pansy smiled and hooked his fingers at Blaise. He stepped forward unpreparedly, but was slapped hard in the next second—he really tried his best!

"Oh!"

"You rascal!" Pansy clapped her hands lightly, "One thing is one thing."

"What are you looking at!" Blaise glared at two innocent students nearby, and he covered his cheeks with a happy grin, "This is my girlfriend!"

The other party looked away in disgust: "Nervous!"

Before Blaise had time to go back, Dean and Seamus worked together to lift a person up from the steps.Neville hurried to help, followed by Pansy and Blaise.

"Merlin." Neville, who arrived first, felt as if his throat was choked, "It's her!"

"Who?" Blaise asked.

Pansy pushed aside the two boys and walked forward. She suddenly saw the body clearly.

"We found her by the lake." Seamus said with a shudder, "You don't want to see that scene."

Her eyes are closed, her lips are slightly open, her face is pale, a few strands of wet hair stick to her pale cheeks and wrap around her slender neck, and more hair is messily tangled together like thick weeds, which are still going on. Drip down.One of her arms was hanging limply from the stretcher, and her fingers were still held in a false grip, like a dead soul who fell into the abyss trying to grab the reed to return to the world.

Dean glanced at Neville: "You know her?"

"The one who saved my life from Bellatrix," Neville said tremblingly. "She...was she killed?"

Suddenly her stomach turned upside down, Pansy turned her head and let out a sudden retching sound, she slid down the wall to the floor, all the oxygen in her mind seemed to be sucked out.Blaise turned and patted her on the back. "Are you all right? Pansy? Pansy?"

"I'm fine." After coughing a few more times, she held onto his robe tightly and straightened up, "She—is my mother."

Under the shocked gazes of the other three people, Pansy staggered forward. She felt that she had an obligation to cover up a little to prevent everyone from seeing the horror of Hyacinth's death, but Blaise stopped her: "Give her to Let's do it. Thank you," he said to Neville, who nodded and looked at Pansy a few steps behind as Seamus and Dean left:

"She saved my life."

"is it?"

"Yes." Neville said, "She's very brave." After saying this, he didn't stay for long, patted Blaise on the shoulder, and hurriedly chased after the other two.

Pansy knelt beside her, taking another long look at her mother after a long time.She was finally dead, free, escaped from the world that bored her, and went where she wanted to go.Under the bright lights of the auditorium, she could clearly see several wounds stabbed deeply by the knife on Hyacinth's body. Pansy didn't know whether she died from excessive blood loss or from a spell, but she felt that she must be very happy. pain……

"Pansy." Blaise called her name softly, and he pulled her away from Hyacins' body. "Don't look."

Pansy broke free. "I'm not very sad," she said stubbornly. "I'm just a little sad."

"I know." Blaise led her away from Hyacinth's body without a doubt, "I will deal with it...you should send a letter to your father and tell him the news."

Panxi seemed to have finally come to her senses, she smiled wryly: "I don't know what he will think."

"Your mother doesn't regret saving Neville, does she?"

"She will not regret returning to Hogwarts today." Pansy strangely remembered the note deciphered by Blaise, "'End where it began'... I understand."

Blaise watched her stagger away, and then he squatted down and combed Hyacinth's long hair carefully, and wiped the blood stains from his skin. He did these things carefully until another person came to him .

"This is..." Draco stared at the dead woman, "Mrs. Parkinson?"

"Yes." Blaise looked at Hyacinth for the last time, at least now she didn't look embarrassed at first, and he suddenly found that there was no pain in her expression, "She reminds me of my mother, Draco. My boggart is actually my mother's dead body...we're not close, and I don't understand why this is...but I understand how Pansy feels." He took off his cloak and threw it solemnly over Hyacinth , "You are forced to be connected with a person you are indifferent to or even loathe. You ignore each other but are forced to live under the same roof. You have been looking forward to escaping from her countless times and starting a new life of your own. But when she really It's gone, you will suddenly realize..." He paused, and then finished softly, "You don't have a mother."

The dawn light illuminated the last chapter left by the night, Blaise raised his head, and through the dome of Hogwarts Castle he saw the last starlight eroded by day.

Time continues to flow.

Under the sky, the Elder Wand is hidden in the tomb, and the Resurrection Stone is buried in the Forbidden Forest.The history of magic has turned another page, and a new chapter is slowly unfolding.

Heroes have heroic epics, and mortals have mortal stories.

These hymns are grand and stretched, and these legends are passed down forever.

In those ending stories, some people are called Sirius, some are called Hyacinth; some call themselves predators, some are called Death Eaters; Not always together.From then on, there will be no "Noble and Oldest Blake", nor "Most Pious and Fearless Rozier", there will be no holiness and depravity, hotness and depression, tenderness and cruelty, pride and humbleness, riddles and riddles, love and hate, Sadness and joy, unspoken and unheard.

The dark ages are over.

The author has something to say:

Note:

1. It was Colin's brother Dennis Creevey who died near the Shrieking Shack.

2. [Penello Krivat]: Posey's girlfriend in the original book.

3. Hyacinth died shortly after Voldemort killed Snape.Bella kills her before returning to her master.

4. Reasons why Bella insisted on stabbing Hyacinth with a knife: 1. She likes to torture people; 2. Hyacinth reminded her of Cornelia (the biggest rival) and Olivia (Bella jealous of her)
