Final Battle, Great Hall, 1997

Hermione ran through the Great Hall until she saw Fred Weasley, her fiancée, dueling Bellatrix Lestrange. She watched as a green light hit him and Fred fell. Hermione felt hot tears roll down her face and ran at Bellatrix. "You will die, you bitch!", she yelled as she threw curses and jinxes at her. Bellatrix only cackled, muttered a spell and ran forwards.

Bellatrix disappeared, but Hermione kept on running and she disappeared too. Hermione felt a sensation of falling, but she swore the was standing. All of a sudden she fell on top of someone.

"Sorry," Hermione mumbled and scrambled to her feet. When she saw Bellatrix she yelled, "Don't run away, lets finish this!"

"Fine," cackled Bellatrix,"Crucio." Hermione writhed on the ground screaming in pain. "You are going to die a more painful death than your little blood traitor boyfriend, you mudblood."

Still under the Cruciatus Curse Hermione gathered all of her strength and pointed her wand at Bellatrix and whispered "Desolati." Bellatrix looked at her surprised and melted. Hermione smirked victoriously and blacked out.
