George's POV:
All Hell had broken loose.
Just like the Second Wizarding War, except a lot bigger; The fighting was going on from the Burrow, to Hogwarts, to the Ministry of Magic. The kids were still upstairs, unaware that Valerie had died; We didn't want them getting hurt. Spells were flying everywhere, each one different than the other. Expelliarmus, Avada Kedavra, Crucio. It was horrible.
Zoe hadn't been taken away from me, one of the few who hadn't. We had our arms hooked, and Fred was still fighting. For Valerie, he had said before this started, and he was still going.
"You okay?" I yelled to Zoe over the screams and yelps.
"I think-" She had started, but was cut off by a spell hitting her. She fell to the ground. I, shocked, fell to the ground with her. No, no, no! I thought. She can't be dead! But she was gone forever. I couldn't bring her back.
For Zoe...
I ran toward the man who'd killed her, shooting random spells at him. He ran into the tall grass with me following closely behind.
"CRUCIO!" I yelled fuiously and it hit the man straight in the back. He fell to the ground, face first. He turned over and stared with wide eyes.
"Please, I-"
"AVADA KEDAVRA!" I screamed, and the man was dead.
For Zoe...
I thought again, smiled halfway, and went to help my brother.
Valerie's POV:
I woke up in a white train station type place, and got up. Where the hell am I? I asked myself. I looked around, and a figure with white robes came out of fog. Dumbledore, I thought. He came a little closer before speaking.
"Ms. Brookstanton?" He asked.
"Proffessor Dumbledore?" I asked in return. He smiled a little bit.
"Sit." He commanded lightly. I sat down on a white bench next to him. "I never really got a chance to talk to you, Valerie. How are you?" He asked. I sighed, closed my eyes, and a tear escaped my eye.
"D-dead." I said and my breathing became shaky. He put an arm around my shoulder and pulled me into a hug.
"Not if you don't want to be." He said. I looked up at him, confused. He just chuckled a little bit, then got up and walked around. "Where are we?" He asked, and turned to me.
"Kings Cross Station." I said a little choked up.
"You had a lot of perspacacity for a witch of sixteen years old. Do you remember those care-free days?" He asked. I got up and walked towards him.
"What did you mean by...'N-not if you don't want to be'?" I asked shakily. He smiled.
"You can say goodbye. To everyone. It's not fair that you didn't. Fred Weasley loves you more than anything, but his brother, of course. Oh, look! Zoe!" He said. I turned around. Zoe was standing there.
"How is that...?"
"She's dead, also, but she's not here with us. She's with Severus." He smiled. "She passed on."
"Oh..."
"So, do you want to say goodbye?" He asked. I bit my lip.
"Yes, please." I said. And everything went black.
Fred's POV:
George and I were fighting, but it had died down. We were both fighting for our family, friends, and wives who'd passed on a while ago. We'd killed a handful of Death Eaters, but, what would that do? I mean, yeah, they're dead. That's it.
Valerie never believed in violence. She only used it when needed. She thought it was unhealthy, to not just give a verbal smackdown to someone, which she did a lot.
The fighting stopped. Literally, out of nowhere, just stopped. Everyone turned to a figure coming out of the grass. Harry came out, wand in hand, and a smirk on his face. The Death Eaters disapparated quickly, making me jump. Harry stopped dead in his tracks.
"He's dead." He simply said, and everyone cheered. George and I only clapped, for we were still sad about our lovers. Everyone went inside, and I stared at Valerie's dead body. I turned around, but I heard coughing and hacking. I swiftly turned around to find Valerie up.
"Valerie!" I said and went to her side.
"G-Get S-s-sophia." She said, her breathing horrible. I motioned for George to get her.
"Are- Are you gonna make it?" I asked, tears threatening to pour out of my eyes. Then, Sophia came down. She took one look at Valerie, and burst into tears. Which, made me go into tears, also.
"Sophia, I love you." Val said. "I'm so proud of you. Now, make me more proud, and stay strong. Take care of your father for me. Fred, I love you. P-please take care of Sophia and Cor. I love you all." She said, laid down, and she was gone.
In the blink of an eye.
Two weeks later:
"Hawthorne, Alex." Aunt Zoe called. Alex walked up to the stage put together, nervously. She told what he majored in, and he'd graduated. Just like that. It wsn't long until Teddy went up, and then me.
"Weasley, Sophia." She called. I nervously walked up to the stage. "Majored in: Care of Magical Creatures, Herbology, and most in Potion studies." She wiped a tear from her eye as she said 'potion studies'. I went over to Alex, who smiled hugely at me. Even though Mom wasn't there, I knew she was watching from above.
And I knew she was proud.
Soooo! Sorry I had to cut the story short. :\ BUT did you like the ending? :D Review?
