A/N: I must say that I was surprised by the number of reviews this story got within a few hours of its release. Were as The Magi Order chapter released at the same time has gotten no reviews as of this posting. Well anyway I do hope that this means you liked the idea for this story even if it is a bit slow to start. This chapter is another slow part, but kept the faith that I have something coming soon because I do.

WARNING: My spoiler warning from the first chapter still applies here as more information from DH is brought to light in this chapter. So again if you haven't read DH (shame on you) then there are things that could be spoilers to you.

Chapter Two: Death Chat

Voldemort looked down at the boy's body with a slight grin on his face while he was excited that it was over he also found that he was a bit disappointed in the whole encounter. He shrugged it off and then went back to where his Death Eaters were waiting taking the dead body with him.

"Today is a joyous day" Voldemort said as he dropped the body to the ground "for I have killed Harry Potter."

Harry was shocked when he found himself standing at Kings Cross on platform 9¾. He was even more shocked that there seemed to be no one around, he thought that those who died before him would have been waiting for his arrival. As he walked around the platform however he came to realize that there was someone seated on a bench a little ways from where he stood.

Harry made his way down to the person and paused when he realized who it was "professor?"

There seated on the bench with a smile on his face and the same bright twinkle in his eyes was Albus Dumbledore "Harry seeing as I am dead I think your safe calling me Albus."

"Sir…I mean Albus how is this possible?"

"Ah have a seat, I would offer you a lemon drop, but it would seem they don't have them at this station…I do miss those sourly sweet drops."

Harry grinned as he sat down beside Dumbledore "Albus we have all missed you so much, but I can say justice was achieved today because Snape finally got what he had coming."

"Poor Severus" Dumbledore said as he stared off at the far wall.

"Poor Severus, how can you say that sir when he is the monster that killed you?"

"Harry there is much you do not understand" Dumbledore said as he pinched the bridge of his nose "I had hoped Severus would have filled you in."

"Sir I am lost" Harry said "what don't I understand, he killed you and the proof is you're here that seems pretty plain to me."

"Harry my dear boy" Dumbledore said with a grin "things are not always as they seem. Take for instance me, I appear to be this old grandfather like person that people admire and follow claiming me to be the great leader of light. When in fact I am just a foolish old man that sot out power and paid the price."

"Okay now I am seriously lost."

Dumbledore laughed slightly "I suppose you are, well I will try to clarify it for you. When I found the ring, the one that bore Voldemort's horcrux in it, I didn't know it was in fact a horcrux. The ring symbolized power and it was intoxicating to think that it could hold that power."

"You were the most powerful wizard in the known world, so why go after more power?"

"As I said I was foolish, and I will let you in on a secret I wasn't the most powerful wizard alive."

"You're not saying Voldemort was more powerful are you?"

"Power Harry doesn't always mean your strong, Voldemort had immense power to use, but he lacked the control to focus the power. He would have been virtually unstoppable if he knew how to control his own powers. I on the other hand had control and the focus, but I didn't have the same immense power that he had, but that is what balanced us out in the end."

"But he was afraid of you that's why he ordered Snape to kill you."

"He feared me not because of the power I wielded, but because of the control I had, and also I possessed the Elder Wand."

"The Elder Wand, what's that sir?"

"I will get to that in a minute Harry, but first let me finish the tale I have to tell. You asked me why my hand was blackened and worthless to use. It was because I was foolish and tried to put that cursed ring on my hand. I sot out power I shouldn't have and the price I paid was my very life."

"How so sir when Snape killed you, it isn't like you asked him to right?"

"Well actually I did ask him to."

"What! How could you ask him to kill you, why would you want to die?"

"I was already dying Harry by placing the ring on my hand I was given a death sentence, sure I would have lived maybe another six months or so, but I would have suffered greatly."

"The curse from the ring was killing you?"

"Yes, it started in my hand and would have spread throughout my whole body up till the point that it finally killed me. I did not want to suffer, so I took the cowards way out I suppose, but it was for the greater good I suppose."

Harry laughed slightly "the greater good, I told myself that is why I surrender to Voldemort because it was for the greater good."

"Actually Harry it was my boy" Dumbledore said with a smile "if you could have spoken to Severus you would have learned that we were right. there were seven horcruxes created by Voldemort."

"What, but we only found six, one of which is still alive because I haven't yet killed Nagini."

Dumbledore laughed more to himself than anything "my boy the seventh or sixth horcrux since Nagini is still alive was destroyed when you willingly allowed Voldemort to kill you."

"What" Harry said confusedly "I did it to prevent him from killing more innocent people."

"Your motive is your own, but the fact remains that you would have had to die in order to be able to kill him. That is why he could not be killed while you survived because you would be a living horcrux for him."

"Let me get this straight you had Snape kill you because you were doomed to die, and by me being killed a horcrux was destroyed. Sir what does the Elder Wand have to do with all of this?"

"Harry the Elder Wand is said to be able to escape death itself, and that is why Voldemort wanted it more than anything. With it he believed he would be immortal even if you did manage to destroy all his horcruxes."

"So he has the wand then sir?"

"Yes he does, he stole it from my tomb…I had hoped that by me willingly dying the cursed wand would lose all its power."

"Something happened and it didn't right sir?"

"You are quite smart Harry" Dumbledore said with a grin "that is correct because before I died Draco Malfoy had taken my wand from my unwilling hand, and in doing so he became the true master of the Elder Wand."

"Draco…but I disarmed him in a duel weeks ago."

"Then that would make you the new master of the Elder Wand, but Voldemort didn't know that. He believed that the mastery of the wand changed hands by killing the old owner."

"So by Snape killing you Voldemort believed he was the new master of the wand right?"

"Exactly Harry" Dumbledore lost his grin "a shame really after I had to force Severus into killing me to prevent the wand from being used it was still able to change hands."

"Sir" Harry said quietly "if you agreed to be killed and not be disarmed in a normal duel does the mastery change hands?"

"No Harry it doesn't, which means that Voldemort killed Severus hoping to master the wand, but in the end he didn't get it from him."

"Then that would mean I am still the master of the wand since I willingly allowed Voldemort to kill me right?"

Dumbledore laughed "yes that is right my boy, you are still the master and you have the other two pieces as well."

"Sir?"

"It is said that Death himself made three items for three brothers and they believed he did it because they beat him and defied death. The Elder Wand was created for the eldest of the three brothers and it was said to not be beatable in a duel. The next brother asked for a stone that could bring people back from the dead, it is known as the Resurrection Stone."

Harry looked intrigued and a flash crossed his face.

"No Harry I know what you are thinking and it wont work" Dumbledore said and Harry's expression left his face "Harry the stone only brings them back as a spirit, a clearly defined one, just like the ghosts at Hogwarts, but it will not return the dead back to the status they were at before they died. The third hallow was the cloak of invisibility that you possess."

"My dad's cloak, how can that be?"

"Harry most cloaks like that lose their power over time, but yours it wont because it is said to have been Death's very own cloak at one point before he gave it to Ignotus Peverell."

"But how did my dad get it sir?"

"Potter is part of the Peverell bloodline and so it was only natural for them to come together, and when he died it was rightfully yours to have. It has been passed from father to son for all the generations and it is the easiest of the three to follow the linage of."

"So what happens if you possess all three at the same time?"

"It is said that he who wields the wand, wears the ring, and the cloak at once shall hold mastery over death itself."

"Sir I lost the ring and Voldemort has the wand now, so that means that the three can't be brought together."

"That is correct Harry, and I fear our times is almost up as the train is due in soon."

"Train sir?"

"Yes my boy the train that will take me off to the next grand adventure, oh I do hope they have lemon drops there."

Harry laughed "I hope they do too sir, but what happens to me now?"

"Well since you were killed willingly with the Elder Wand I suppose you have a choice to make young one" Dumbledore said as he stood up and moved toward the now arriving train.

"What do you mean sir?"

"It's simple really Harry, I had thought you figured it out, well anyway you have three choices to pick from. One you can stay here at the station as I have awaiting your arrival, but I wouldn't advise it, it gets rather boring staring at the walls. Your second choice is to get on the train with me and ride into the hereafter and reunite with those you lost or you can walk to the exit over there and return to the land of the living, it is clearly up to you."

"I can go back, I can try and kill Voldemort?"

"Yes you can go back and don't try to do it, just do it kill that monster before he can hurt any more good people."

"I will sir" Harry said as Dumbledore went to get on the train "sir" he said making Dumbledore pause "when you get there tell everyone I miss them and love them for me will ya?"

"Sure Harry I will" Dumbledore said with a smile "I am sure they already know it, but I will tell them anyway."

Harry stood and watched the train roll out of the station and once more he was alone. He watched the train until he couldn't see it any longer and then walked toward the next of the platform "I am coming for you Tom and I am going to kill you this time."

Back in the world of the living Voldemort had taken the lifeless corpse of one Harry Potter and along with his followers returned to Hogwarts. "Warriors of light surrender now for you have lost this war, your mighty hero is dead, your chosen champion is no more for I have kill Harry Potter!"

"No that can't be" Tonks said as she heard the magically enhanced voice of Voldemort "Harry can't be dead he swore he would return to us, to me."

Molly placed her hand on Tonks' shoulder "he may be lying child, but if he isn't then we are all surely doomed."

Tonks pulled away from Molly "NO! Harry can't be dead!" Tonks ran out of the great hall with others running closely behind her. She made it to the entrance way where she could now see Voldemort and the corpse that he carried.

"Yes come and see that I speak the truth" Voldemort hissed as he dropped the corpse on the ground.

Though now the corpse wasn't so lifeless as Harry's soul had return to the shell of a body, but he remained still.

"I shall prove it to all of you Crucio!" Voldemort cast the pain curse down at the corpse on the ground, but it did not move with pain and agony it remained motionless "see I spoke the truth of your hero, now surrender or die where you stand."

Harry heard the curse and thought his ploy was done he waited for the hellish pain to take over his body and cause him to prove he was back from the dead. However he didn't feel the pain as the curse coursed through his body, because Voldemort had chosen to use the Elder Wand to attack him.

Tonks fell to her knees "no Harry why, why would you go get yourself killed?"

Voldemort laughed "I now master death and fear no man, so you can surrender or you can die it does not matter to me for I am now and forever will be IMMORTAL!"
