Faith

~

Severus watched Voldemort send Harry's body flying.

It’s been for naught. We are defeated.

Turning away, he limped back to the Shrieking Shack to remove all traces of his presence. No one would find him.

Sod Dumbledore for making him care, and Harry for giving him hope.

After cleaning the place thoroughly, he exited the shack, exhausted to the point of stumbling.

When he was caught by strong arms, he looked up into a hallucination's face.

“Potter?”

Harry smiled. “Didn't Dumbledore teach you faith?”

Severus would never get used to these Gryffindors, but he would give it a good try.
