Neville turned to look the gun in the face and said, "Go ahead. Take a shot!" The Death Eater pulled the trigger but nothing happened. Neville smiled.

"It worked!" Neville said and grabbed the gun from the shocked Death Eater and then tackled him to the ground. On instinct Harry attacked the Death Eater behind him as everyone else did the same. In close quarters the three Death Eaters were easily outnumbered. Harry wasn't sure what happened to their weapons but he was grateful for whatever scheme his friends had concocted in private. In short order they were all knocked out and disarmed.

"This is great, but what are we going to do now?" Harry asked, looking around at the unconscious bodies of the Death Eaters on the floor.

"Neville and me are going to disguise ourselves as Death Eaters and we're going to escort this ship to whatever secret base is on Imperio," Ron said.

"What happened to getting ourselves capture?" Harry said.

"Well, the other night Luna mentioned that she might be able to disable their weapons so we thought we'd try that," Neville said.

"You could've said something," Harry said.

After a time Ron and Neville had their suits on and they left the Marauder to board the Death Eater ship. They activated the electro-magnetic tow and began to pull the Marauder to Imperio. Harry decided to wait to take a moment to relax with Ginny in the cabin.

"So what was going on with you and Draco Malfoy?" Ginny asked Harry as they sat next to each other on a bed.

"I'm not sure. I didn't really have the time to figure out. I guess we liked each other but… I don't think it ever could've worked out," Harry said.

"So you weren't dating?" Ginny asked.

"No. Not really. I feel bad leaving things unfinished though," Harry answered.

"Well you can always go back after we've kicked Voldemort's arse," Ginny said, smiling. Harry didn't return her smile and she looked concerned. "You're not expecting to go back," Ginny said, her voice sad and almost a whisper. Harry shook his head in reply.

"Surely, there must be a way."

"I don't think there is. I think killing Voldemort will mean I have to die."

"But… you're only eighteen," Ginny said, tears were filling her eyes and Harry suddenly realized that his cheeks were already wet.

"This is what I have to do, Ginny. This is what Dumbledore wanted me to do," Harry said.

"And you'll just do whatever he wanted? You barely knew him," Ginny said, anger seeping into her voice.

"People seemed to trust him. My parents trusted him. In fact my mum is a much a part of this as he is," Harry said.

For awhile neither of them said anything further. Both of their eyes dried and they remained silent. But then Harry became aware that Ginny had placed a hand on his thigh and was rubbing it. He turned to face her and she slowly turned her head towards him and smiled suggestively. In a moment their mouths were locked together and in a blur they were tearing off their clothes.

Soon Harry was laying naked on the bed, his cock stiff, and Ginny climbed on top of him and placed her pale white hands on his dark skinned torso and rubbed his chest. She then grabbed his cock with a hand and positioned her wet entrance over it and pushed herself down slowly. Harry was surprised at how hard it was for her to get him inside despite how wet she felt.

Finally, he was inside and she was riding him hard, fingering her clit frantically, Harry not really knowing how long they might have. Quicker than he expected she moaned and dug her fingernails into his chest a little and he felt a rush of pleasure through his body as he came inside her.

Shortly after this they passed out and when they awoke they both took a shower then headed out of the cabin to check on progress. Outside he saw that everyone was looking directly at the planet as they were entering its orbit.

Within an hour they arrived at Station A.K. (which was short for Avada Kedavra, Ron and Neville had learned.) It was night and it was quiet on the green and black base. Harry hoped their plan to get them inside by pretending to be Death Eaters was going to work. But as they landed he saw a figure walking to the ship and began to worry.

Ron and Neville arrived entered the ship and everyone filed in front of them as they lead them out of the ship. In darkness it was hard to see at first but at last Harry could see the figure standing in front them and knew their plan was about to be a failure. Severus Snape stood before them, smiling victoriously.
