*Sobs* Yes, I am very sad that this is officialy the last chapter but you know whats even more sad? David Yates called cut for the last time on Harry Potter yesterday, and I feel like I could cry! Potter has been such a big part of my life and in just a few months we won't even have the movies left. For the past years when I feel like crap I would think of the new HP movies and know that they were being filmed as I spoke but now it's over. Gone. Done. Excuse me... Chapter Nine
Draco Malfoy stood in the doorway looking disbelievingly as his cousin. Hadn't his aunt – no – theiraunt killed her?
"What are you doing here Draco?" Blaise asked nervously. As Draco's eye's darted to everyone in the room, his eye's widening as they landed on his cousin's husband/old professor, his godfather, the dead (or so he thought) Weasley twin, and the long lost auror.
"I came to…," Draco's voice fell silent as he looked around.
"Look whose back." Blaise beamed after a short silence.
"Uh-huh…, I can see that…," Draco looked warily around the room.
"Oh Merlin," Blaise sighed, "Come sit down, they don't bite, I guess we have some explaining to do."
~*~*~*~*~~~*~*~*~*~&~&~&~&~&~^~^~^~^~%~%~%~%~$~$~$~$~~~~~~~~~!~!~
"I'm so sorry Harry," Hermione was saying.
"It's okay Hermione. It wasn't your fault," Harry hugged her, "Come on, we have to hurry. Neville is waiting for us," Harry was downtrodden. He had hoped to save Dumbledore, he really, really did, but he didn't have time to doodle, they were now in jeopardy of splitting a time line because of their mistake.
"Where is he? And what happened to Ron?" Hermione asked hesitantly.
"We screwed up, so Ron had to go back to the present, Neville is waiting at the Ministry. On three," Harry counted to three and the four teenagers drank their potion, despite the fact that the girls still wanted to know what had happened, but that could be explained later.
When they arrived the full out brawl had started and Bellatrix and Sirius were already caught up in a duel.
"Hey guys," Neville came up behind them, "Ready?"
"Yep."
They snuck up to the archway as Sirius laughed at something Bellatrix had said.
Hermione and Ginny got to work on the archway, so anyone was able to slip through without 'falling in' or whatever happened if you got into it. Luna stood by just in case anyone needed help while Harry and Neville stood under the invisibility cloak waiting.
When the Avada Kedavra curse flew out of Bellatrix's wand; just before it hit its target, Harry and Neville pushed him towards the veil, shock evident on his face but for all anyone knew it was because of the curse. Everyone in the room was so intent on watching Sirius that nobody watched the curse suddenly disappear but then again, it looked like it had hit the man that had just fallen through the veil.
"The six of you people really can't control yourselves from doing anything stupid or dangerous can you?" Draco asked Ron after Blaise was done explaining as to why his room was filled with dead people.
Ron just scowled at him from his seat next to Astoria.
"Hmm, erm, well, it's uh… nice to meet you… Nymphadora," Draco said awkwardly.
Tonks huffed.
"If you want posses the power to have children you should call her by her last name, stupid boy," Mad-Eye barked, while Fred sniggered from his seat next to him.
"Sorry, Tonks." Draco said quickly, he wouldn't put it past her even if her father was a Muggle born (no one used the other term after the war), she was still a descendent of the Black family and she could do some mighty damage if she wanted to. He preferred his… child producing tools unharmed thank you very much.
Tonks chuckled and shook her cousin's hand.
The room fell quiet for a few second then in quick rhythm flash after flash of purple enlightened the room blinding everyone with every flash, no time to get over the last one before another one began.
When the light cleared it showed a very warn out Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, Ginerva Weasley, Luna Lovegood, Neville Longbottom, and Sirius Black.
"Wotcher guys!" Tonks beamed.
"Tonks!" Harry and Sirius engulfed her in a hug.
"Hello old friend," Remus grinned and Sirius gave him a hug and pat on the back as well.
"Fred!" Ginny threw herself at her older brother and started crying into his shoulder.
"Professor?" Hermione asked baffled looking at Snape after Fred had released her in a bone crushing hug, despite the fact that he was still holding his sister.
"Evening Miss. Granger," Severus gave her a curt nod.
Hermione glanced at Harry but he was to busy as he and Remus were explaining to a baffled Sirius how the greatest Wizard hadn't survived. Sirius threw Snape a glare but didn't say anything on the matter.
"Why don't we go say hello to my parents?" Fred grinned.
The entire night no one slept as everyone got caught up on what they'd miss. Sirius had three years to catch up on while Moody had only missed nine months.
Sirius was ecstatic at hearing that Remus had married Tonks, and demanded to see the little baby. When Andromeda showed up with Teddy, Sirius and Mad-Eye took turns holding him. Andromeda was overwhelmed to have her favourite cousin, her daughter, and son-in-law all alive.
One thing was for certain, it was one of the happiest day anyone had had in very long time.
That was until the next day and they had to explain the matter to the ministry, they seemed to have forgotten that little detail. Surprisingly (or not so) Blaise and Astoria became unreachable during the ministry interrogations…how bloody convenient.
