A/N: The challenge was to write a drabble using Severus, Remus, a place under seige, the Morsmordre, and the phrase "We're all that's left."

Arthur had fallen, and Kingsley. Not good...Remus skidded around a corner, and pounded full-tilt toward--a dead end.
Hearing footsteps, he raised his wand. But it was only Severus; he stumbled to a halt, leaning wearily up against the wall.
"Have you seen Albus? Or--"
Snape shook his head. "Gone. All dead." His voice sounded hollow. "We're all that's left, Lupin."
Voices sounded nearby; overhead, the Morsmorde erupted.
"I hate you," Snape said.
Remus smiled sadly. "I know."
"But I hate them more."
"So let's finish it, then."
Side by side, they strode back up the alley, wands at the ready.
