on the eighth day of fic-mas - Harry Potter fic

FANDOM: Harry Potter
TITLE: Dawn Of A New World
SUMMARY: Victory shouldn't feel like this
RATING: PG-13
CATEGORY: drama/angst, character death
WARNING: unbeta'd for the 12 Days - it will be beta'd when I put it up on the archives.
MUSIC: Elgar's 'Enigma Variations'
NOTES: Long, long ago there was a competition on Mugglenet where people were challenged to write the final chapter of the seventh book of the Harry Potter series. I only heard about it after the entries were judged, but it sparked an idea. And I've always imagined that someday, after some epic battle in a movie, the heroes would stand on a hill in the rising sun, and the strains of Elgar's 'Enigma Variations' would soar through the Dolby surround sound system. This is my approximation of it. *g*
