Harry Potter and the Dragon's Revenge


Chapter I: The Beginning of an End

It was one year since Harry Potter dueled and killed the Dark Wizard, Lord Voldemort. Ron Weasley, Hermione Granger, Neville Longbottom, Albus Dumbledore, and Dobby helped Voldemort's down fall with his Death Eaters. As usual, Lucius Malfoy was not sent to Azkaban prison after pleading that he was not guilty. Lucius Malfoy insisted Voldemort put him under the Imperius Curse and Fudge, the Minister of Magic, believed him.

The war between the Order of the Phoenix and Voldemort was gruesome. So many innocent wizards, witches, creatures, and muggles died from participation or from the battle's strong after effects.

Harry's friends, family, and fellow Order of the Phoenix members had perished. Ron's entire redheaded family had died and he was melancholy. Hermione's entire muggle family and all of her friends had died too'. She was so sad she isolated herself from everyone with the exception of Harry and Ron. It was hard for Harry, Ron, and Hermione to watch all of those innocent people die. The trio blamed themselves for the deaths and fell into a deep depression. Most of the members of the Order of the Phoenix either had died from the Unforgivable Curses or never found. The only known survivor from the lot was Dumbledore.

Although the purpose of the war was for good, many people regretted it, including Harry himself, who would have perished instead. However, the good news was that Voldemort and his followers were gone.

The aftermath of the war scarred Europe greatly, including muggles. Many very populated cities such as London and France were destroyed. Innocent muggles who did not succeed in fleeing the country were trapped in the battle and suffered painful deaths. Destruction cut a deep path across Western Europe, wrecking 90 of the UK, 50 of France, and 75 of Ireland.

The effect of the war was terrible. It took many weeks for Ministry of Magic workers to heal injured muggles and erase the war from their memory, which was useless. By the time the war was going to begin, muggles around the world were aware of magical people and creatures. Once muggles caught wind of the news they locked themselves in their houses, but those in Great Britain fled the country. Even one year later people were still recovering from the ghastly battle.
