Harry Potter: Fight at the Ministry
The Finding of the Fight
One gloomy looking evening, in Hogwarts, Harry was rudely awakened by the new Headmistress, Professor McGonagall.
"Potter, we must leave for the Ministry of Magic at once. There is said to be a gathering of Evil in a secret part of the Ministry. The Ministry will not believe this or do anything about it." She said
"Who else is going Professor?" Asked Harry, slightly dumbfounded by the suddenness of all this.
"I, Professor Snape, Professor Flitwick, Professor Sprout, Professor Trelawney, Professor Hagrid, Hermione Granger, Ron Weasley and You will come." She said the last 3 words very firmly.
He wondered how they would get to the Ministry. They couldn't fly it was too dark and dangerous. Fortunately, his question was answered when they got outside of Hogwarts' grounds. They would use apparition. The students clung on to the teachers and within a minute they were outside the Ministry.
They quickly hurried inside. They ran the full lengths of the corridor and turned right. From then on it was just a straight passageway. They found an empty room and sat in it. McGonagall quickly said "We are looking for where the Gathering of all evil is taking place. When we find it, we will fight to the very death!!! He-who-must-not-be-named must be stopped immediately."
"Use the name Voldemort, fear of the name only increases the fear of the thing itself." said Harry.
"Very well. As I was saying, Voldemort needs to be stopped. Not stopped for a minute, or an hour or even a year! He needs to be stopped forever. In other words--" She paused for what seemed like an eternity, "Killed" She finished
"It will not take one killing curse to bring him down, not even two will do it. Before he died, Dumbledore said that Voldemort had divided his heart up into seven pieces. There are two ways of killing him. Either you find and destroy the six horcruxes and then use the killing curse on him OR you use seven killing curses"
McGonagall nodded. Then Ron said "Are we looking for this fight or not?"
Then there was a voice "Avada Kevadra" The shot narrowly missed Harry. But the fight had found them first. Not only had it found them. It had found them off guard and beleaguered. However, the shot bounced off of the shiny floor and hit Professor Trelawney square in the head. One down and eight to go.
