Can
this be?
By
Lady miata
Harry and Draco?
Privet drive, end of the street Harry's head.
He's
dead. Professor Dumbledore is dead. How can this be? My mentor. Snape
killed him. I thought he was on our side. I finally trusted him, and
then he betrayed us. He will pay!
Someone
is following me, I can feel it, and this time it isn't the order. I
walk to the park, it's dark and no witnesses.
"Come
out, come out, mouse!" I say.
Draco
Malfoy, I thought so.
"Come
to kill me now, I won't be so easy."
"I
didn't kill him, and professor Snape didn't want to. This is for
you." He hands me a letter.
The writing looks familiar
Harry
You
are probably wondering what happened.
Severus
Snape didn't kill me! Ok, he did but only because I told him to.
I
was dying anyway. The poison I drank would have killed me in 5 hours.
I
asked Severus to kill me so Draco would still have his innocence and
Severus his freedom. If I didn't do what I did, others would be
dead.
Forgive them, and get Voldemort, you are ready and he will still be celebrating. You can do it.
Albus Dumbledore
Ps. Give Draco some tea, he needs it.
The bastard! If he thinks I would forgive Snape and Draco just like that…
"Malfoy!
What are you still doing here?" I yell
"I
wish to help" he says, "Professor Snape is captured, they want to
kill him for treason. He saved my life."
So
Dumbledore died for nothing. I reread the letter. No, he died to save
Draco.
The thoughts are overwhelming me:
Snape should die
He saved my life,
multiple times.
He hated me.
He saved me because
he owed my father's life.
My father never
tried to be nice to him
He didn't either
He still saved me,
regardless of the motives.
He also made my life
a living hell.
I never gave him a
chance
I don't want to
Oh that's mature
What to do?
'get Voldemort,
you are ready and he will still be celebrating.'
The opportunity is
here.
Defeat Voldemort and
live my life.
"Fine,
Malfoy where is Voldy, hiding out now?"
"Voldy?"
"Lord
Voldemort seemed too noble for such a Riddle, don't you think?"
Draco
is laughing, I never saw him laugh before, it's funny, I laugh too.
…
one week later,
We
have been fighting for 3 days at day we retreat each get 6 hours
sleep while the other fights who ever come near.
Me,
Draco, Ron, Hermione, Cho, Bill, George, Fred and Ginny (I tried to
stop her but she is so stubborn)
Neville
is using all his herb knowledge to do on-battle-nursing
Charlie
stole 3 dragons for air attack while we rest.
So
far none are too far hurt.
Fighting side by side tells you what someone is like. Draco is one of the best fighters in the group. I can honestly say he is a friend. Ron and Hermione disagree, but they can't see. Draco is fighting against his family, that is heroic to me.
…
Two weeks fighting and finally, His 'Lordship' appears.
The
final battle. He knows it and I know it. It lasts for 3 hours, when
suddenly Draco enters the hall we are fighting in.
"Traitor!"
I hear Voldemort say, just before he shoots the Avada Kedavra curse
towards him.
I
don't know why (maybe it's the stupid part, Snape keeps
mentioning), but I jump in front of Draco to save him.
I
fall, I see Voldemort laugh. He thinks I'm dead. I try grabbing my
wand without making a sound…
I
point at Voldemort…
"AVADA
KEDAVRA!"…
I
check his pulse…
He's
dead…
I
cry out…
"VICTORY"
"How
can this be?"
I
turn to look at the person who spoke. Draco looks at me in shock.
"How
can what be?" I ask
"You
survived the same spell he died of."
"That
is the power of love" I remember Dumbledore's words on the matter
"Ginny?"
"NO,
Friendship. I saved you for the love to a friend; it must have had
the same affect as my mother's love." Cheer is still in my voice.
"you
think I'm a friend."
"After
these 2 weeks, yes. Now where is Snape?"
