The Man With Two Souls

by: LogicalRaven

 

This story is based on characters and situations owned by JK Rowling and publishers including but not limited to Bloomsbury. No copyright infringement is intended or to be infered.

 

A miserable week had passed since the final battle had been fought. A miserable week had passed since that tragic night when the freedom of the world was saved and the lives of those who fought for it was lost. The halls of Hogwarts were draped in black cloth, a symbol of respect and mourning for those who had fallen during the last fight of the past war. So many lives lost in a struggle that would mean little and make even less sense to those who read about it in the future.

 

It was a war to bear out hate and to redeem a society. How the battle actually completed itself was almost unknown and even harder to explain. Now as Harry fluttered in and out of life the answers seemed to come as quickly as they left.

 

There was a void within him. It was something he couldn’t explain. It felt like part of his soul was missing. That missing part was beckoning him to the other side to join it. Perhaps the lost part of himself was the soul of Tom Riddle. What was left of the boy who lived twice was not really Harry Potter, not the Harry Potter he had been. He was merely a broken memory.

 

Harry looked up at the black walls with his eyes. If felt like the first time he’d ever gazed upon those walls. He blinked hard and then caught his reflection in a suit of armor. His appearance was that of an average seventeen-year-old boy, but it wasn’t the familiar one he had grown to know.

 

His eyes glared back at him. They were no longer green, like his mother’s, but hazel like his father’s, though they retained their almond shape. The scar that was plagued his features for so very long was now fading, and was on the brink on disappearing completely. He wasn’t even confident if his memories were his own anymore.

 

Who was he now? Not the boy who lived, not the man with two souls? History would most likely remember him as the man who life passed by.
