Epilogue: Raindrops Hitting the Pavement

-R-U-B-Y-

It was raining. Hermione could see the raindrops hitting the pavement. This was the first rainfall of the year. It had been a year since the day on the field and Hermione could not believe it. She was getting ready for the anniversary party of the fight a year ago. The fight which had taken the lives of all those there. Hermione and Fred had arrived at the battle ground to find it completely destroyed and covered in ash.

They had been horrified to discover that none of their friends were anywhere to be seen. They had looked everywhere but there was no sign of anybody. When the Ministry officials arrived on the scene they were just as baffled as Hermione and Fred as to what had happened at the field. There had been serval theories and investigations into what occurred but no one could tell for certain.

Hermione sighed as she continued to get ready for the party, Fred had gone to his family's empty graves to talk to them. Everyone in the wizarding community was going to be there tonight and Hermione was going to give a speech. She was nervous about that but she was also very sad as it was the anniversary of her best friends death.

There was a crack behind her and she turned to see Fred standing at the opposite side of the bed. He had been crying as Hermione could see the redness around his eyes. He opened his wardrobe and started to get ready. Once Hermione was finished she left the room and went downstairs into their living room. She looked at the pictures on their mantle piece. These pictures were of their families and loved ones.

They had gotten a house in the North of England near the sea so they could be left alone by all of the people who wished to hear their story. They had just wanted to grieve, and the Ministry had understood, giving them the house which they now resided in. Hermione heard Fred's footsteps coming down the stairs as she gave the pictures one last glance before turning away as Fred entered the room.

"Are you ready to go?" Fred asked his voice held no emotion and his face also showed no emotions.

"I don't think I will ever be." Hermione answered her voice filled with too many emotions.

"But let's go." She said after a moment and in the next second there was a crack; then silence.
