Altair smiled at Henry, who was very grateful. Hearing him tell his secret made her more sure of telling her own. "Okay, here goes," she took a deep breath, "The night that I was bitten by a werewolf started by me and my brother wandering out into the woods. We thought we were following an injured animal, turned out it wasn't. I was the one who pushed us to go further," she sniffed, "We ran when we saw it was a werewolf. I knew there was only one way that I could get both me and my brother out of there alive." the thoughts came racing back to her and she felt once again, the terror she had felt that night. Altair inhaled a shaky breath, "I used my weight to break a tree branch and make it fall down on top of the werewolf. It killed him instantly." she squeezed Henry's hand, "I didn't mean to kill him, only stun him long enough for my parents to find help. I-- I feel like a murderer." another deep breath, don't break now, it's okay. "It-- it was only a week later-- that-- I found out the werewolf I killed was my uncle. That is the reason why my aunt works for the werewolf registry now. She hadn't known he was unregistered." Altair broke down into tears. She bet no one else at Hogwarts had killed anyone before, and certainly not a family member! "Sometimes I feel like I should've died instead, I can't imagine anything worse than killing someone." the scar on her leg burnt like fire.

After hearing Altair speak, Henry held her hand tighter as he spoke in a quiet and comforting voice " your not a murderer and your not a bad person. You didn't know and you were a afraid, you did what you thought was best and you did the right thing because you protected and save your brother and yourself which was actually very brave and courageous," Henry paused as he pulled her into a tight hug before speaking again " your not a bad person Altair and there's a reason that your alive and it's not to feel guilty. Because if you died then I would have never met someone has kind, caring, loyal,
brave, funny, and courageous as you. I'm glad your my friend Altair and I'm more that happy that we met." Henry held on to her a bit tighter as he whispered into her ear " you didn't know and still you and your brother were in danger so you only protected him and saved him as well as yourself. And your not a idiot for following him, you're only caring, compassionate, and kind enough to see that someone needed help so you followed because you had to help. Your a great person Altair and everyone has a fault or two, that's what makes us human... but that doesn't define us for the rest of our lives because your a amazing person."

Altair was silent as she listened to Henry's calm voice. His reasoning made sense, and fought with her inner voice. I am a murderer. No I am a good person. Are you really? Her feelings fought with each other, but eventually, her guilt washed away. She was left with a sense of-- calm. Something she hadn't felt in a long time.
She felt Henry's warm arms around her, and she hugged him back. It was okay now, she allowed her eyes to fill with tears. And now, she believed him fully, it wasn't her fault, she was just doing what was best at the time. Both of them, had made mistakes, but that didn't make them bad people. "I-- I think you are right Henry. I guess I just have never thought about it that way before." everything seemed to make sense now. Altair fell silent for a bit. "Thank you Henry." she paused to wipe off her tears, "You're the greatest friend anyone could ever have." she usually never said anything like this, but it was true.
The waves rippling across the lake lapped against her ankle. They seemed to be reassuring her too. She gave his hand a squeeze. She knew that both their secrets would never leak out, and telling him her's had lifted a great weight off her chest. Altair gave a big sigh. Now she fully enjoyed to calmness of the lake, the peacefulness of this morning.

Hearing Altair say those things gave Henry a new sense, something different as he thought of himself as a friend at least in Altair's eyes. Henry, well when he was younger didn't have to many friends and at the start of Hogwarts he didn't know the first thing to being a good friend but here he was hugging someone who consider him a friend and after they told each other a secret that proved they were only humans, no more or less. Henry felt himself grip Altair harder in there hug as he smiled to himself with the thought that he was friends and he would remained loyal to them till the end something that Henry thought was not possible, he no longer was a outsider but this time he was on the inside, he had friends who he could laugh and cry with, he as found his place at Hogwarts.

Henry slowly let go of Altair, as he moved away from their hug but kept a firm grip on her hand as he looked out into the great lake where the black ripples of the water came right up to the shore and the breeze floated around them. Henry took a death before closing his eyes, everything seemed at peace and everything seemed right.
