Chapter Twenty-One: The Invasion

Brooke paced around her room biting her nails, Hermione and Draco walked into the room and quietly closed the door. They sat on her bed and patiently awaited for the news Brooke to tell them what she had to them. Brooke sighed and stood before her two friends, she pulled a mirror out from her pocket and placed it on her dresser.

"Voldermort is planning to invade Hogwarts." Brooke said nervously.

"WHAT!" Hermione bellowed out. "When?"

"Today," Brooke replied. "Hermione I already told you my secret yesterday but the others doesn't know, they won't be prepared."

"I can't believe I am going to say this but," Hermione sighed. "Keep this between the three of us."

"Are you serious?" Draco turned his head towards the bushy haired girl.

"Two Heirs and an ordinary wizard should be able to handle the situation," Hermione said. "Who am I kidding, the least we can do is fend them off and hope nobody notice that your helping them inside the school."

"Wait why let them inside the school?" Draco asked.

"She doesn't have a choice the Mirror of Transportation is unbreakable," Hermione explained. "He's going to get in whether she tries to stop him or not."

They heard a voice coming from the mirror laying on Brooke's dresser, she picked up the mirror and notice Voldermort was in the reflection.

"Brooke we are ready!" Voldermort said.

Brooke nodded her and threw the mirror at a wall.

"What was that for?" Draco asked covering his head.

"He's on his way now," Brooke pulled off the mirror hanging from her wall and ran into the corridors.

Hermione and Draco chased after Brooke, she placed the mirror in the middle of the hall. Hermione and Draco stood back, Voldermort and about twenty death eaters came out of the mirror one by one. There were still more on their way, Voldermort looked at Brooke then at Hermione and Draco who were at behind her.

"What is this?" Voldermort asked.

"The rebellion," Hermione pulled out her wand. "Stupefy!"

Voldermort shield himself from the spell, Hermione looked nervously at Draco and Brooke then began to run. Four death eaters were chasing them down the hallway, Brooke and Draco tried to shoot hexes at them. Hermione turned a corner and spotted three death eaters who apparate right in front of her.

"I thought they couldn't apparate!" Brooke said.

"They can't apparate to the school but I guess they can inside of it!"

Brooke grabbed Hermione and Draco's hand, she felt her lungs being crushed as they went through a tiny hole. Hermione gasped as they reappeared in the middle of the Gryffindor Common Room. Ron and Harry were by the fireplace laughing, they turned their heads towards their three friends.

"He's not allowed in here!" Ron shouted.

"This is not the time Ronald!" Hermione yelled. "Voldermort's here!"

"What?" Ron cringed.

"How did he get in?" Harry asked.

They were disturb by an explosion in the walls, they heard the scream of others students running through the halls, Bellatrix and Dolohov appeared from out of the smoke from the burning wall. Brooke and Hermione got ready for battle, Harry, Draco and Ron stood back waiting for something to happen.

"Harry get Ginny, Luna and the others!" Hermione shouted.

Harry nodded his head and ran out the room followed by Draco and Ron. "Expelliarmus!" Hermione yelled. Bellatrix dodge the spell and shot one back at Hermione and Brooke, they simutanously jumped out of the way. There was something different about Bellatrix, she seem powerful then usual, "Crucio!" Brooke fell to the ground screaming in agonizing pain. Hermione tried to attack Bellatrix but Dolohov pulled her by the hair and placed his hand over her mouth.

"Finish her!" Dolohov said.

"In a minute," Bellatrix cackled. "I'm sure the Dark Lord will be pleased if we tortured her before killing her."

Hermione muffled through Dolohov hands, Brooke was one the floor rolling around in obvious pain. Dolohov slowly began to remove his hands from Hermione's mouth, he couldn't control himself. Hermione stood back, "I really didn't want to do this!" She punched Dolohov, Bellatrix released the curse she casted on Brooke. "Stupefy!" Hermione heard, Bellatrix and Dolohov disapparated, Hermione looked towards the hole in the wall Ginny was standing their with Lavender.

"What happened?" Ginny ran up to them.

"Bellatrix use the Cruciatus Curse on her," Hermione explained. "Where are the others? Are they okay?"

"I don't know Lavender and I were the only ones to escape," Ginny said. "There are so many death eaters, many of the students are fighting as we speak. I don't know how long they can last, and Dumbledore is preoccupied with Voldermort."

Brooke slowly got up, she was clutching her side.

"We have to help."

"Your hurt." Lavender said.

"No," Brooke grunted. "I am fine, we have to go."

"Are you certain?"

"Yes---" Brooke was interrupted by a scream from students in the hall, they rushed to the corridors to find a group a first years being tormented by a army of death eaters. "We need a distraction."

"I'll do it!" Ginny said.

"I'll help," Hermione grabbed Ginny's hand.

"Okay you two, hurry!" Lavender said worried.

Ginny and Hermione ran in front of the death eaters, "It's us you want right?" Ginny smirked.

"Well come and get us!" Hermione ran with Ginny right behind her.

The death eaters immediately started chasing them, Brooke and Lavender rushed to the crying first years and led them down the corridors into a stairwell, the staircase began to change positions. They all ducked as spells were being casted all around the castle, "When we get to the second floor bathroom, I am going to lead you into the Chamber of Secrets." Brooke explained. "Lavender is going to stay behind and protect you!"

"You can't speak Parseltounge!" Lavender exclaimed.

"You'll be surprised at what I can do." Brooke grinned. "We're on the second floor be careful of any death eaters!" She led them to an abandon bathroom that had been mostly covered in dust and spiderwebs ever since the last visit to the Chamber of Secrets, they heard a voice come from one of the stalls.

"Moaning Myrtle this is so not the time," Lavender bellowed.

Brooke began speaking Parseltounge, the sinks began to open up showing this long gaping hole, "Jump in but be careful," Brooke turned to Lavender. "Protect them, your a strong witch I know you can do it." There was an explosion in the hall, Brooke eyes wondered to the hallways.

"Brooke, please be careful!" Lavender hugged her.

"Aren't I always," Brooke laughed. "Go on now!"

Lavender jumped into the hole, Brooke nodded her head and ran back into the corridors which were half destroyed. There was big piles of rubble everywhere, the second floor was completely empty but she could still hear voices throughout the castle. Brooke went back to the stairwell, she notice a large eruption of flames from the fourth floor. Brooke immediately headed towards it, Ginny and Hermione was fending of a group of deaths eaters.

"Brooke!" Ginny turned around. "Are they safe?"

"Yes," Brooke nodded. "Hermione put up a barrier!"

"How?"

"With ice!" Brooke exclaimed.

Hermione conjured a pool of water as Ginny and Brooke attacked the death eaters, she placed the pool of water in front of the death eaters and slowly froze it. The could hear the death eaters on the other side banging against the ice, "Lets get out of here before the get through!" They turned around and ran up the stairs to the seventh floor, they found Voldermort dueling Dumbledore, McGonagall, Harry and Draco.

"Avada Kedvera!" Voldermort shouted.

The spell rushed towards Draco, he felt another spell hit him quicker knocking him to the ground he turned his head and saw Ginny pointing her wand towards him. Voldermort spell hit a wall causing it to collapse, Brooke looked around her. She heard the screaming and the pain going on throughout the school, "I WANT THE BOY!" Voldermort shouted.

"STOP IT!"

Everyone stopped and looked towards Brooke.

"He's not the one you want," Brooke crossed her arms. "I am!"

"What foolish is this?" Voldermort snarled.

"I am the Heir of Slytherin not Malfoy!"

"I should have know!" Voldermort said enraged.

"I am tired of working for a side that I was never happy fighting for," Brooke said. "Now I have people who love me and care for me and will always have my back no matter what."

"Brooke I don't get it what's going on?" Ginny said confused.

"She used to work for Voldermort." Draco explained.

"What?" Harry bellowed out.

"Harry I am so sorry!" Brooke said.

"STUPEFY!" Harry yelled.

"No!" Hermione ran in front of Brooke and was knocked into a wall.

"Mione!" Harry rushed to her side. "I'm sorry I didn't mean to."

"It's okay," Hermione slowly got up. "She's on our side now Harry and I happen to trust her, I know how it feels when you want to do anything to get your parent's back."

"This is not the time you two," Professor McGonagall said.

"Enough with these games!" Voldermort clutched his wand tightly. "This will be the end." A dark black auror began to appear around Voldermort, he pointed his wand toward Brooke. "AVADA KEDVERA!" A large green jet of light erupted from his wand, the magic that was released from this spell was almost inescapable. Brooke couldn't move anymore, the spell came at her in full speed just as it was about to hit she was pushed to the floor. Brooke tossed her hair out of her face and looked up, Dumbledore was hit with the spell.

He slowly fell towards the floor and Voldermort grinned as tears slowly fell down Brooke's eyes. "Your next!" Voldermort said.

"YOU WILL NOT TOUCH THEM YOU SON OF A BITCH!" McGonagall yelled outraged. "VERVA OMNES LIBERANT!"

A golden light came out McGonagall wand, it hit Voldermort sending him flying back about three feet.

"Listen to me," Professor McGonagall instructed them. "Go to the third floor you should see a door with the word 'Semper Mea' I want you to blow that door up and used the portkey to get out of here! The other teachers and I will handle everything from here, the five of you leave now!"

"But--" Harry protested.

"Mr. Potter there is no time for your arguing," Professor McGonagall said. "Now leave!"

Harry nodded his head and ran with his friends, they reached the room. "BOMB--"

"Wait Hermione!" Brooke yelled.

"What?" Hermione asked.

"I forgot Lavender in the Chamber of Secrets." Brooke explained. "We have to go back for her and the students, what about Ron and Luna."

"And the swords."

"Okay," Harry said. "This is the plan, we have one hour to get everything and everyone we need, meet her in exactly and hour right now it is 6:54 PM."

"So will be back at 7:54 PM." Ginny agreed. "Be careful!"

The five split up, hoping to find everyone and everything they need and hopefully being able to see one another again before the end of the invasion.
