The Final Showdown

This story begins on a cold winter's night,
When most of the world is at rest,
Except for a teenage boy with a scar,
Who is facing his ultimate test.

For seven long years he has waited for this,
this final showdown with his foe,
And the time had now come for him to stop
the murder, the misery, the woe.

Many had fallen at the hands of this man,
the one who's name they won't speak.
He murdered his way to infamy,
annihilating good, strong or weak.

The boy now stood with a hand on his wand,
his breath coming in small, nervous gasps,
While his enemy stood there in front of him,
laughing a cold mirthless laugh.

"You can't win this fight, Potter,
Just give up now," he said with his red eyes aglow,
But Harry stood steadfast, unblinking, and strong,
Defying his enemy, his foe.

"One of us is going to die on this night,"
Harry said, his face set in stone.
"Then on with it, Potter, let me murder you now,
So you'll finally leave me alone."

They stepped back several paces and raising their wands,
Harry could not help but think
He'd never see those faces he loved,
Friends greeting with a smile and a wink.

But now was the time; fate was put in his hands,
So much depended on this.
If success wasn't his than the world would fall
Into an evil, fathomless abyss.

"You'll be seeing them soon," The Dark Lord said to the boy,
As he poised himself, ready to strike.
Harry thought of his mother, her lovely green eyes,
And his father, who he was so like.

"Ah, you miss them, I know, such a terrible thing,
To be parentless and all alone-"
Harry, taking a breath and stopping his fury,
Quietly let out a groan.

"You've done enough damage and ruined enough lives-"
Harry started but before he could finish,
Saw a light, felt the spell, spun around,
then he fell, and felt life quickly start to diminish.
Author's Note:: This is just something I came up with when I couldn't sleep
last night...Let me know what you think. If you all hate it than it ended
there, Harry died. But if some people enjoyed it I'll write more, cuz I
don't want him to die :)...So just review and let me know either way.
Thanks!
