Disclaimer: I don't own anything.

A/N: This is a freeverse, written for Rosawyn's 'Dr Seuss Quotes Challenge'. I had the quote: 'You can steer yourself in any direction you choose.' and had to do with it what I would. :) Enjoy, and please review!

Are you ready to do this?

/Take a deep breath/

In. Out. In. Out.

And still, in your head, these words are echoing.

'You can steer yourself in any direction you choose'

They are the truth, you know they are.

It's just the stupid freak, spouting nonsense.

+She Doesn't Know Anything.+

How could she? Nobody does.

NOBODY UNDERSTANDS.

Here you are, screamingscreamingscreaming, and

NOBODY HEARS YOU.

|||||You have built a wall|||||

IT SURROUNDS YOU AND ENGULFS YOU

Suffocating

You're dying

NOBODY CARES.

The man is stepping towards you.

:Pulling you forward:

And still, in your head, these words are echoing

'You can steer yourself in any direction you choose'

Shakingshakingshakingshaking

STOP IT, PLEASE, PLEASE, STOP IT

'Bow to the Dark Lord, boy'

NO, NO, STOP, WAIT

'You can steer yourself in any direction you choose'

'You hesitate, Draco? Well, we'll have to see about that.'

PAINPAINPAINPAINPAINPAIN

Writhing on the floor, screamingscreamingscreaming

'You can steer yourself-'

PAINPAINPAINPAINPAINPAIN

'-in any direction-'

PAINPAINPAINPAINPAINPAIN

'-you choose'

'You choose, Draco.'

LIVE OR DIE?

LIVE OR DIE?

LIVE OR DIE?

You are sixteen years old.

Bending over, bowing to the Dark Lord

'Good boy. Now come here'

Wand, wand, wand, on your left arm

PAINPAINPAINPAINPAINPAIN

Shooting through you, shooting, shooting

Skull. Skull. Skull.

'Congratulations, Draco. You are now a Death Eater'

CHEERS. CHEERS. They are CHEERING you.

And still, in your head, these words are echoing

'You can steer yourself in any direction you choose'

For anyone who didn't get it, it's about Draco becoming a Death Eater. The person who said 'You can steer yourself in any direction you choose.' was Luna. Hope you liked it! x
