Chapter 2
It was Belltrix says George who looked up. Where is she says Viper as she stand. She is with the rest of the Death Eaters says Arthur as she looks at her. She turned toward the entrance of the Great Hall. Draco was standing in the entrance and walked toward his older sister. Viper that is a suicide mission she knows a lot more of the dark arts than you do she will kill you says Draco as he holds back his sister. I'm a Malfoy Draco I know her weakness and she needs to be destroyed says Viper. Viper do you honestly believe that Fred would want you to do this she will kill you. V you're a traitor to the Malfoy name she won't hesitate even if she is your godmother she believes in what the Dark Lord is doing and will stop anyone who gets in his way yells Draco as he looks at his sister. Fine I won't go without any backup but I still want a piece of her undoing says his sister as the tears begin to flow.
He promised me he would come back to me I need him why did he leave me she yelled as she really broke. Draco grabbed his sister and eased her to the ground. You're going to be ok I know it Fred wouldn't have left if he didn't believe that his family and you would survive this says Draco as he holds his older sister. I miss him so much already says Viper as she looks at her brother whose gray eyes use to mirror her own. But now her were filled with grief and anger. His was filled with concern and revenge for the heartache his sister was suffering. I know but your strong and you get through this not because you don't want to but because he would want you too says her baby brother. You're the best brother anyone could ask for you know that as much as you can be a pain your still the best and you always make the right decision in the end says Viper. A decision that possibly just signed mum and dad's death certificate says Draco. Nothing you could do would do that Father did that enough for the both of them over the years the Dark Lord just wants you to believe you did but, dad has failed him more than once says Viper as she looks at her brother. She has a point says a new voice. It was George.
Your dad never could keep to the Dark side well pretending to be all about the ministry says George. See it's not your fault why do you think I chose to be different says Viper as she looks at him. You know you're the only Slytherin that has ever dated a Gryffindor says Draco as he looks up at his sister with sadness in his eyes. I'm the only Malfoy who ever went against the fold says Viper as she looks over toward were Fred's body laid. She then turned toward George. We are going to get through all of us are as long as we stick together says Viper as she hugs George. The two began to cry over the twin and the boyfriend that had just been lost.
Harry looked over at Draco. Draco started to turn and leave. Draco don't says Viper as she grabs her brother. I don't belong here you do I don't says Draco. I don't care I need you here you're the only family blood related that I have got left you know mum and dad will never forgive me says Viper as she looks at her brother. Her brother pulled her into a hug. I love you sis he says for the first time in almost 7 years out loud in public. I love you too little brother she says as she slowly lets go. If you are going to stay you know you're going to have to fight says Harry as he looks over at the kid he had always been enemies with. I know either way I would have too says Draco as he looks around at the people that he had once despised and made fun of. There is a chance that you have to face your parents says Ginny as she walks into the Great Hall. I know and to be honest I am more than willing to see my father at his wits end says Draco as he looks over at his sister who eyes were dry and ready for a fight. They again mirrored his own. They wanted their own lives for so long and freedom from their father maybe tonight the two would finally get it.
Just then Voldemort's voice came out of nowhere. It is time for this battle to be finished says the voice. The teens all looked at each other. George and Viper looked at each other. Be careful the two whisper as they all leave the Great Hall. Viper and Draco step out onto the steps of the entrance of Hogwarts when they see their father. I'll take father you find Belltrix says Draco. Draco be careful he will try to kill you says Viper as she looks at her brother. I will be fine says Draco as the two walk in two different directions.
As Viper headed in the direction of Death Eaters and others she remembered something her father had told her years before. " You are strongest when you are together and when you are you can destroy anything that comes in your way". Viper turned and ran toward her brother. Draco she yells as she watches her brother get sent flying by their father. She race over to him. I'm just lucky he didn't use the killing curse says Draco. Well he won't if the two of us work together remember we are stronger when we are together something about our magic and our bond or something says Viper. No wonder he has been trying to keep us on separate sides if we aren't together we couldn't fight back with the strength the way we would if we were together says Draco as he stands with the help of his sister. They heard their father began to say a curse. The two waved their hands and sent their father and his wand flying knocking him unconscious. Go help with Belltrix says Draco as he looks at his sister and points to the three women. Molly, Ginny and Hermoine.
Be careful she says as she runs toward. Stuplify yells Viper as she directs her wand toward Belltrix. She goes flying. Molly turns toward her and looks at her gratefully. I said I wanted a piece of her undoing she deserves more than that though says Viper as she watches her aunt try to get up. Viper whispered a curse and Belltrix fell and didn't get up. Molly looked at Viper. It's a sleeping curse nothing bad I want her to suffer for what she did not get the easy way out says Viper as she walks away hitting Death Eaters with curses as she went along. Ginny and Hermione looked on as they watched her go along. They were fighting for the ones they loved. She had lost the person she loved the most. But they still had Harry and Ron. For now anyway.
Everything after that happened so fast. Draco had no choice but to kill their father they were both free of his wrath. Belltrix was sent back to prison which Viper was happy to hear and Voldemort was dead. Harry had defeated him it was over now the healing began.
Narcissa walked into the Great Hall. Draco noticed his mother. Mum he says as she walked in. She saw her son. He ran over to her hugging her. Narcissa looked over at her daughter and motioned for her to come over. Viper soon did. I'm sorry for everything your father has ever done to with one of you says Narcissa. We know mum says the two. Viper I heard about Fred I am sorry I can only imagine the pain you are in says their mother. Mum you do know that dad was killed tonight says Draco. I know you did what you had to do says Narcissa as she looks at her son. The only Malfoy's left wrapped their arms around each other. Happy that they survived but, mourning others. Viper let walked over to George. George she says. Yes he says. He's in a better place you know that right says Viper as she sits in front of him. I know but how do I go on with life if I don't have my twin says George. George we all have to live without of him and as much as we don't want to we are going to have say goodbye. I know one thing is that we are going to have deal with a lot of things that will remind us of him says Viper as she looks at George.
What do you mean asks George? Something that I didn't tell Fred that I wish I had the chance to now says Viper as she puts her hand to stomach. Your pregnant asks George? According to the Healer yes says Viper. Then why were you here tonight you could of got yourself killed says George. I found out tonight after the battle I didn't know before I kind of thought I was but I wasn't sure says Viper as she looks down.
George stood. I'll help you through this says George as he hugs his best friend. Thank you says Viper. Anything for you says George as they stand to walk back over to their families. Molly pulled the two into a hug. We are going to get through this as a family says Molly as she lets go. The two nod as they look at her.
Hermione looked over at Viper and then over to Ron. Viper had lost the love of her life but she still had hers even if he didn't know it. Ginny was thinking the same thing as she looked toward Harry. Hermione stood up and walked over to Ron. Can I talk to you asks Hermione as she looks at him? Sure he replies as he stands. How are you holding up asks Hermione as they walk out of the Great Hall? The best I can I guess I just can't believe Fred is gone says Ron. Yea neither can I he was a great friend says Hermione as they step outside the Hogwart walls. I can't believe how strong Viper is being through all of this I remember when the two of them use to talk about the future and how they always planned to be together and I know him dying was never in the plan says Ron as he looks at her.
What I learned from today is that life isn't something you take for granted says Hermione. Ron looked at her puzzled. I watched Viper lose Fred tonight the love of her life the man she always thought she was going to be with forever until her own family killed him says Hermione as she looks over at Ron.
What are you getting at asks Ron? I don't want to take life for granted and I don't want to be known as the girl who loves to be in her in books to the point that I miss the important things in life she says. Okay says Ron. Hermione rolled her eyes knowing he didn't get it. I love you Ron says Hermione as she looks him in the eye. Ron blushed. Hermione looked at him. He kissed her. I love you too says Ron as he pulls away. Hermione just smiled as she slipped her hand into Ron.
(Meanwhile with Ginny) Harry was walking around the hall. Harry she says as he passes her. He turns toward her. Are you alright asks Ginny? Shouldn't I be asking you that asks Harry? I will be ok with time but,you just defeated the strongest Dark lord of all time says Ginny. Its over says Harry as he slides his hand into hers.
Everything is going to be ok asks Ginny as she looks at him? Yes eventually it all will be says Harry as Ginny leans over and kisses him. I love you he says. I love you too she replies.
Viper walked over. Hey George and I are heading back to London says Viper as she walked over to the two. Harry and Ginny looked over at her. How are you asks Ginny as she stands up? I'm a mess but I will be ok I know it says Viper as she hugs Ginny.
Let your mum know that we will see her in the morning says Viper as she lets go wiping her eyes. Viper than walked over to Draco. Hey I'm heading home says Viper as her brother turned. Home where asks Draco as he looks at his sister. The London mansion says Viper with a small smile.
Who's going with you asks Draco? George is going to be staying with me for a while because he isn't ready to go back to the flat just yet says Viper as her eyes began to turn back into the icy Malfoy stare. Alright I'll be by soon says Draco as he wrapped his arms around her. Alright says his sister as she turns says goodbye to her mother and walks back toward George. George looked at her. You ready asks George? As I'll ever be says Viper as she starts to close her eyes. Come on says George as they leave. Viper missed Fred but she knew that she was going to get through it. She had to for herself and the baby.
