    Bellatrix pointed her wand at Ginny, who lay helplessly on the ground. "You can't fight us now, can you, ickle baby girl?" she mocked, the smirk on her face widening. "Do you love Potter enough to endure this? Crucio!" And then, Ginny's body was on fire.

  • We Can Make It

  • Sleep Well, My Child

And at that moment, the spark that had stayed alive within him for the past eleven years flickered and went out.

Little did he know that this was because it had actually happened.

  • Stolen Victory
