This is Iron Fortress. It takes place after Half Blood Prince, its my version of the 7th book. There are going to be some similar things that happen and yet some very different things.


"Give up boy! You can't survive this!" a voice shouted. The Villain had just shot yet another green blast at the Hero who quickly dived out of the way and shot another spell back at him.

Memories began to glimmer before his eyes as the two continued to dance their dangerous dance.

The lifeless body of his mentor falling off the edge of the astronomy tower, a green glow still flashing in his eyes. Pursuing the enemy through the castle and onto the ground.

"You've taken everything from me! I will never yield to you!" the Hero shouted back. The Villain cackled as he aimed another shot at the boy.

The redheaded angel leaning against his legs in the Common Room laughing about school gossip and hippogriff tattoos.

"You took my family from me!" he shouted as a curse from the enemy ripped into him, leaving a bloody trail down his face.

A mishmash group threatening the Hero's blood family for the way that he has been treated and realizing that while they may not be blood related they were the closest to family that he could get.

"Haha! I've got you now boy!" the Villain screamed in triumph as the Hero stumbled in pain.

"You will never have me!" the Hero summoned his strength and shot another spell back at the Dark Wizard.

His Godfather being struck in the chest by curse and falling through a mysterious veil. Pursing the mad woman who had struck him and facing off with the Villain only to be saved by his mentor.

"I already have you my boy," the Villain said yet again dodging the spell. "I have been you since the moment we shared blood!"

Racing through a maze trying desperately not to get hurt and to find a cup that would end it all. Running with the Hufflepuff champion and being transported to the cemetery. A flash of green light as the champion falls to the ground and watching as the Villain is reborn.

"You are the last one standing Potter and you will fall!" the Villain taunted him.

The Hero's name emerging from the Goblet of Fire and having to stand-alone and take his place in the back. Never feeling so alone before in his life as he had in that moment.

"The Dark Mark shall shine proudly in skies all around the world with your death!"

Being alone in the woods as the Dark Mark was sent into the sky and being surrounded my Ministry officials just moments later.

"I will become the ultimate ruler and the last of those that are hiding from me will be punished!"

Believing in family again as the Hero discovered he had a godfather who wanted nothing more than to take care of him.

"You seem to be forgetting one thing!" The Hero panted, "I am still standing and I will not fall until you have fallen first!"

Screaming in his head as hoards of Dementors surrounded him. Falling to the ground as his body became too weak to fight them off any longer.

"As long as I am still alive there is hope. I will fight you as long as I have to as long as it gives those people hope who will then continue to fight the good fight!" the Hero yelled. The Villain let out a howl of pain as the Hero landed a curse.

Fighting the basilisk in the Chamber of Secrets and saving the little redheaded angel.

"I will not let you win this!" The Hero said as he landed yet another spell against the old man.

Fighting off the man with two faces and watching as his mothers blood flowing through his veins saves him.

"I love this world too much!"

Finding out that wizards and magic does exist. Going to Hogwarts for the first time, meeting new friends, finally having a place to call home.

"I have fought too many battles."

The Hero being taunted as a child by a whale and his followers.

"I have been through too much!"

Sleeping under the stairs at his uncles house.

Being brought to his aunts house as a child on a flying motorcycle by a half giant.

"I have lost too much!" the Hero shouted.

An auburn haired women hovering above him smiling and laughing with him. Being joined by a man who looks just like him. Realizing this was the only glimmer of a memory that the Hero has of his parents.

"You will lose more than that tonight boy!" The Villain shouted as twin bursts of green light shot out of their wands.

The Hero and the Villain were thrown back away from each other. Each landing on their backs with their faces toward the black sky. Each surrounded by people from their past. Each given the moment to stare into their faces.

One angered.

One joyous.
