So here's my latest crazy idea. Because a lot of my friends and I were disappointed with the ending of the seventh book (and I'm sure some of you were too), here's a solution. One hundred and one different alternatives for the ending of Deathly Hallows. Some serious, but most will probably be just stupid and hilarious. Hopefully I'll get enough ideas for this many chapters. If anyone has any ideas, I'll welcome them with open arms. Well, with no further ado, here's the first chapter.
Disclaimer: Unfortunately, I was not born with the name Jo Rowling therefore I don't own any characters. No matter how badly I may want Fred and George.
An Unexpected Hero
The duel was intense between the Dark Lord and the Boy Who Lived. Both were firing and dodging spells with increasing intensity. The crowd watched cautiously, hoping that good would prevail. In fact, everyone was so focused on the duel that no one noticed a certain poltergeist drift in carrying a bright orange water balloon which brilliantly matched his trademark accessory.
"Expelliarmus," Harry yelled.
"Avada kedavra," Voldemort retaliated.
"Expelliarmus."
"Crucio!"
"Expelliarmus!"
"Avada Kedavra!"
"Expelliarmus!"
"CRUCIO!"
"EXPELLIARMUS!"
Peeves wound around the debris crashing in through the roof and took a careful position above Voldemort. With expert aim that only comes from years of tormenting students, he streaked down, and slammed the balloon into the back of Voldemort's head which exploded on contact.
There was a gasp from the crowd and, in perfect unison, everyone craned their necks upwards where Peeves had flown back to. The duel had been momentarily forgotten as everyone stared at Peeves in utter bewilderment.
"AAAAAAAAAAH!"
Everyone snapped their heads back down to regular eye level where Voldemort resembled a quickly melting candle. There was a puddle at the Dark Lord's feet and it was growing larger as he shrank.
"I'm melting! MELTING!!!! Oh what a world, what a world."
Voldemort's face sank and melded with the puddle and as the last of his face disappeared, a bubble rose to the top and then popped.
The whole of the Great Hall was silent as Harry approached the puddle and poked it with his wand. When nothing more happened, the crowd burst into cheers. Peeves did a victory lap of the Great Hall singing an improvised victory song.
"Oh Peevesie's a hero, he bashed Voldy dead. And Voldy's a puddle now let's party and get fed."
And that is how Peeves the Poltergeist earned the respect of the whole wizarding world-except Filch. It is said that he is circulating a petition around Hogwarts, still trying to have him banished.
Well, there's the first chapter. I don't know how my updating habits will be for this fic because this semester is going to be kind of crazy but I'll update as I can. And the more reviews I get, the faster I'll update. So if you want to see more, REVIEW!!!!!!! It's just that little purple button on the bottom left side.
