tampered with the past

If at that time, I could be more cautious and discover my abnormality in time, would the tragedy be avoided?

No if.

Farewell became forever.

When I returned home after stepping on herbs in the forest, what greeted me was not Hermione's warm smile, but another self standing quietly in front of the house.

I was stunned by those emerald green eyes.

"Who are you?" I asked.

"I am you." He replied.

I wanted to scream, but he raised a finger at me and made a silent gesture: "Hermione fell asleep after a long time, do you want to wake her up?"

We face off in the snow.

"Who are you?"

He sighed softly: "I am...another you."

another me?

There was a faint red light in his emerald green eyes: "More accurately, I am your dark side. Originally, I should be fleeting, but the soul fragments in your body gave me the power to last forever. The moment it was eliminated, it chose to transfer its power to me."

With a voice as flat as boiled water, he said flatly, "I have been looking forward to meeting you for a long time, just like devils always long to see angels. Some things are destined not to coexist peacefully. The rise of one party means the rise of the other party." decay."

"Are you going to kill me?"

He shook his head: "No. To destroy a person, it is not enough to destroy his body. The only thing that can defeat death is the soul. That is what I want, your soul."

I'm confused: "What do you want my soul for?"

"Remember the sixth year of Hogwarts?" he said, still in a calm tone without any ups and downs. "You and Ginny...that was my arrangement, to make your beloved woman sad. At that time , forgive me for being naive and always thinking that if she was sad, you would be sad too. But the woman you love is stronger than I thought, which is so funny, when I found out that my plan failed, I didn't really feel that It's a pity. More setbacks mean more gains, and I originally planned to torture you slowly."

"What does this have to do with my soul?"

Those emerald green eyes were stained with black mist: "The more you suffer, the stronger I am. Why don't you understand such a simple truth? Ron and Ginny, who gave you the power to be ruthless? Yes Me. I made you despise their pain and make their pain your joy. Why? Have you ever thought about it? Why should I help you to be with the woman you love?"

The reason is too obvious.

The most painful thing in the world is not never getting it, but getting it and losing it again.
