0:00
from the moment I opened my eyes that
0:03
cursed night I knew something had
0:05
changed the air was thick with dread
0:09
laced with prophecy and blood my fingers
0:13
trembled not with fear but with the
0:16
weight of truth I had carried alone for
0:19
far too long it was not Harry Potter it
0:24
was me the true chosen one they told the
0:28
story wronged Dumbledore with all his
0:31
wisdom and secrets let the world believe
0:35
it was the boy the scar the legend a
0:38
comforting lie wrapped in theatrics and
0:41
fate but prophecy cares not for comfort
0:45
the one with the power to vanquish the
0:48
dark lord approaches born to those who
0:52
have thrice defied him born as the
0:55
seventh month dies to boys were born at
0:59
the end of July potter and myself yes
1:03
Lily gave birth to Harry on the 31st but
1:08
my mother Bene delivered me on the 30th
1:12
and though our names were never spoken
1:14
aloud in the Hall of Prophecy the
1:17
criteria were clear eyes was overlooked
1:20
dismissed an outcast a Slytherin a
1:23
halfblood with greasy hair and sharper
1:26
intellect not the kind of hero the world
1:30
could cheer for but I had power power
1:34
even Voldemort feared you see i was
1:38
there when he heard the prophecy not the
1:40
first time but the second he came to me
1:43
in the shadows as he often did before he
1:46
marked me before the brand burned
1:49
beneath my skin tell me Seis he hissed
1:53
red eyes burning through the gloom what
1:56
do you think it means i knew better than
1:59
to lie told him the truth that there
2:02
were two possibilities and that I was
2:05
one of them he laughed then turned his
2:08
wand away from me and toward a crib he
2:12
made his choice he chose wrong but let
2:15
us go back further before the prophecy
2:19
before the war before the castle gates
2:23
swallowed us before lily we were
2:26
children two curious minds tangled in a
2:30
world too cruel for innocence she was
2:34
sunlight and I was shadow and yet she
2:37
never feared me not once I loved her the
2:41
only way I knew how fiercely
2:43
protectively selfishly and when I lost
2:47
her that was when fate twisted the knife
2:51
dumbledore knew he always knew when the
2:54
prophecy was spoken he traced both paths
2:58
both boys but he needed a symbol a
3:01
rallying cry was never a cry was a
3:06
whispers the years passed i watched
3:10
Harry become what I never could a hero a
3:14
symbol a porn he walked into the fire
3:18
with an army behind him my walked alone
3:22
but I did not stop fighting i played
3:27
both sides digging they called me
3:30
traitor spy but never did they see the
3:34
truth eye was the blade at the dark
3:37
lord's throat every potion brood every
3:41
spell whispered every memory buried deep
3:45
inside my acclimy shields it was all for
3:49
the greater cosnet because of Harry
3:52
because of me because I was meant to end
3:55
this the moment I discovered the truth I
3:59
remember it well dumbledore lay frail in
4:03
his tower hand blackened by cursed magic
4:06
severis he rasped "You must protect
4:11
him." Why i asked because of the
4:13
prophecy because haze the chosen one he
4:17
hesitated because you are the silence
4:21
after that confession was louder than a
4:24
scream then why him i spat because the
4:28
world needs a symbol they would never
4:31
accept Yui said it with such cold
4:35
detachment as if he hadn't torn open my
4:37
chest and spit on the heart within you
4:41
are the sword he said he is the shield
4:45
but I didn't want to be a weapon i
4:47
wanted pisi wanted hers so I let the
4:51
world turn i trained potter i punished
4:54
Pim i saved him i hated him he was
4:58
everything I wasn't and yet somehow he
5:02
wore the crown of destiny but the
5:04
prophecy never lied in the dark lord
5:08
will mark him as his equal he marked
5:11
Harry yes the scar the pain the
5:14
connection but Voldemort also marked me
5:18
he branded me trusted me feared me saw
5:22
me as kin that was no accident that was
5:27
the prophecy unfolding when the final
5:30
war approached I prepared my soul for
5:33
what had to come thought I would die had
5:37
planned too but fate cruel and strange
5:41
had other designs the snake bit the
5:44
venom spread and as I lay bleeding
5:47
choking on my own breath I felt it check
5:51
pure lily she stood above me not in
5:54
flesh but in memory in magic in some
5:57
space between life and death you are not
6:01
done she whispered I have nothing left I
6:05
said you have everything you always did
6:09
you were the one seisest not Harry just
6:14
Like that I woke they found me days
6:16
later body cold heart barely pulsing but
6:22
I lived and with that breath i knew I
6:25
had to finish it not for Harry not for
6:29
Dumbledore not even for her me Voldemort
6:33
was crumbling the Horcruxes fell one by
6:38
one until only one remained and it was
6:42
not Harriet was me fragment of the dark
6:46
lord had lodged within me the night he
6:49
chose Harion choosing wrongly he had
6:53
splintered again and so to end him I had
6:57
to die not harry Mai stood a top the
7:00
astronomy tower wand in hand stars above
7:05
and whispered the incantation Dumbledore
7:08
had feared to utter it was not a Vader
7:11
keed was older than that tit was seis
7:15
snape reclaiming destiny and in that
7:19
blinding flash of green eyes saw it all
7:22
the child I was the friend I lost the
7:26
monster I became became the man I amed
7:30
when the light faded so too did the dark
7:34
lord the world will never know harry the
7:38
symbol will remain in story books and
7:42
bedtime tales but I am the truth behind
7:47
the myth the weapon forged in silence
7:50
the true chosen one seis snapways
