Summary
There was a scream at the back of his head, though he couldn't hear it properly as the ringing in his ears drew louder at the movement of stepping back for balance. Harry had never felt pain like this before. It hurt, yeah, but it was peculiar.
His hand slipped from Sirius' grasp as he fell back almost comically slowly. It seemed as if learning how to cast for the first time were faster than this.
Harry's body curved back in a lonely fall, struggling against the cold fabric settling like a veil over his feverish body.
The worry had not quite fell from his face, it never turned calm, always waiting to see if Sirius would come with.
The crooked gasps of laughter from the giddy girl had fallen slack, probably realizing who she had hit. Hitting him with a sectumsempra were fine, in normal circumstances at least.
Harry Potter wasn't to be delivered to her Lord anymore. There was no more Harry Potter to deliver.

Summary
Instead of a quick recovery, even after the break from the semester does Potter lose the carefully modified mask bandages around his emotions. Not even those so close to him seem to understand, well, try to understand.
Harry had given his life for a wold he barley knew, a world he himself barley got to live in but loved all the same.
His death wasn't orchestrated. No one had ever turned up to the show because the stage was blown apart by fragile emotion.
Had it not been for that peculiar spy, he'd probably have been buried at a grave no one would show up to. Without that professor, he probably would have been found as a pile of flesh at the stained grasses of the bottom of the astronomy tower.
Rather to his friends or even his godfather, Severus had been the only one to witness the true horror the boy felt as the first death that had truly been his own fault was pinned at his head.
As now the 'boy-who-lived,' now deemed murderer truly felt as if he were ghost invisible and mute to anyone around him, only Snape had been there for the wreckage.
Or
Harry Potter is about to walk through door one but Snape gets to it first to slam it shut and lock it forever.

Summary
Faintly showering the blunt snow coated land, the stars floated sparsely through the space.
Dipped higher above the clouds, the moon coveted for a colder night than the morning temperatures could reach.
The sun had retreated far earlier into the days as the seasons blended to winter months.
Reeked by the retched screams of the local daily hunt, the echoes of the night infused into the clashes of iron against rotten flesh drew closer by the few minutes that had passed.
Resting beneath the corroding floors of stone sit the corpses of the dead, though the living stated above are soon close to resting there to.
Dishevelled frost lamp flowers lay trampled by the headstones only waiting for their turns next.
It feels fitting.
The living fall into an endless cycle of birth, fighting and death. They duel against the hunt only out to get them and die early at the same place they were destined to get to eventually. -

The Wild Hunts attacks come more heinous, more towards the weak rather to the prepared
The moon's power is dwelling weak
Why is that? Flins is trying to figure that out himself

Summary
Harry had hoped that death was going to be peaceful. Opening his eyes to a new type of pain and suffering was not what he thought was going to happen when he walked into the forest. He had traded one hell for another. Or so he thought.
