Title: Heavenly Solace Author: Apythia Word Count: 100 Rating: G Pairing: Minerva McGonagall Prompt: Stars Warnings: None
From the top of the Astronomy Tower, Minerva could see the stars twinkling in the distance. Since her first year at Hogwarts, she had always sought solace here up near the heavenly bodies. Tonight, they could offer her no comfort. Her world had shattered when one friend took the life of another right here, just a few short steps from where she stood. She couldn’t believe Severus had betrayed them, yet she couldn’t deny Dumbledore’s death. How did things get to this point? Once again, she cursed her former school mate, and prayed to the stars to save them all.
