This is dedicated to Britteny, my Harry Potter obsessed friend. Always remember, DRACO GUSTA FUEGO!
I'm proud. This is my first non-PJO fic! Yay! More to come... and yes, I am going to work on Traitor. The book isn't even out yet! Give me some time!
Neville POV
The Carrows couldn't be allowed to keep Hogwarts.
It was nearing the end of the term, and those Carrows were worse than ever. They would torture us for resisting their rule, and would make their followers as well.
Bloody hell of a time in Hogwarts.
I recalled a Muggle song I had heard in the streets of London one day. Stuck in my head for some reason. Something about an apocalypse? I didn't remember the name, but I remembered the lyrics. There was a bitter irony to them that struck me as I began to remember.
Declare this an emergency
Come on and spread a sense of urgency
And pull us through
And pull us through
Urgent. That described what they were going through so well. Dumbledore's Army had to pull through this. Harry, the Order- someone had to know what was going on and help. They may be in hiding, but they wouldn't leave us with Snape and them.
Snape. The traitor. Lot of good he'd done us so far. I was afraid of him- for good reason. He killed Dumbledore. But we're still fighting, we're not going to let him or You-Know-Who win.
Voldemort. Not You-Know-Who. My parents fought him, and now I am. I'm not scared of him. Fear of a name increases fear of a thing itself. That's something Dumbledore used to say.
And this is the end, the end
This is the end
Of the World
The Wizarding World won't end just because of Voldemort and his Death Eaters. We will resist. And we will win. They can't keep us forever. And we've got Harry to save us. It's his destiny.
And it's time we saw a miracle
Come on it's time for something biblical
To pull us through
And pull us through
Voldemort's death will be a miracle. He's been out there for what feels like forever. Harry defeating him would clearly be a miracle- though how it will happen, I have no idea. But it was prophesized. It will happen.
And this is the end, the end
This is the end
Of the World
It won't end. Not here, not now. It cannot.
Proclaim eternal victory
Come on and change the course of history
And pull us through
And pull us through
Harry will pull us through. He has to. Otherwise… No. He will. I can feel it. And then life will be bliss.
And this is the end, the end
This is the end
Of the world
Not the end. The beginning.
The ride may be over, but that doesn't mean we're getting out.
