Harry tried to pinpoint the location his brothers were coming from but for some reason could only get a general direction. The note clenched in his hand, Harry was sure was crumpled to dust by his magic and strength. Harry called Dobby to get some supplies and his bag together after he got the broomsticks. He shrunk his bag and put it in his pocket. Dudley appeared in the hall with Draco and Kreacher. Dudley was clutching a note that looked exactly like the one Harry had recieved himself. They ran outside ignoring their parents and Headmistress and mounted their brooms. Thanks to the magic supressor field, none of them could use spells to stop the three boys from kicking off from the ground and flying off in the direction Harrys signal was telling them to go.
Harry, Dudley, and Draco flew west with Harry in the lead. They made adjustments to their flight pattern as they got closer and the signal grew stronger. Hours later a giant tower came into view and a rainstorm of multicolored curses came flying at them from the ground. They landed and entered the fight.
They sent spells in every direction. Harry tried to apparate in the battle but he realized that the Death Eaters sent up an anti-disapparition field. Dudley was fighting very well, considering the small amount of training he'd had, until the ground started shaking making him lose his footing. He stumbled a little but was stunned before he could get back into the battle. Harry and Draco had been training in the Room of requirements in dueling situations where the ground began to shake so they were ready for this unlikely force of nature or magic.
Harry noticed a particularly malicious looking masked death eater pointing his wand at Dudleys fallen form and shouted Avada Kedavra. Harry tapped the ground with his wand and a pillar of ground came up behind Dudley and the spell was blocked by it. The pillar that rescued Dudley exploded from the spell and killed the attacking death eater and began to shower the field with ground and rock, hitting some others and shredding the sleeve on Dracos and Harrys arms and cutting into their skin.
Harry looked around and found that most of the remaining death eaters were close together in a tightly knit group Harry tapped the ground again and another pillar of land came up this time directly underneath him. He pointed his wand at the group who were trying to take the pillar down and concentrated as hard as he could. "Incibure confestum ouis magica" A purple jet of spiraling light came out of his wand and hit the death eaters in giant cyclone of magic. The cyclone released little bursts of magic to hit the death eaters and they began to scream as soon as the bursts hit them. The death eaters all fell to the ground and began to twitch. Draco stunned 10 more death eaters and Harry came down from his pillar. He levitated the whole batch of maybe 75 dath eaters to the spot where the stunned death eaters were and bound them tightly. Harry tapped the ropes with his wand and shipped them off to the Ministry of Magic.
"Where and why did you learn that?" asked Draco as he healed his wand and revived Dudley
"Where was in the library when I was looking for combat spells. I came across it when I was reading a book entitled Battle strategies and Protection Spells It was in the chapter Powerful and almost entirely safe ways to increase strength in battle. The book described a number of spells that did a number of things."
"Why?" asked Harry "Well that was in sheer greed to keep my friends and I safe in battle."
"Wow" said Draco helping Dudley heal his arms. "I hope I can learn those spells from you in the near future."
"Maybe" said Harry as he began to walk towards the door to the tower, "If we all make it back alive."
"Don't talk like that Harry" said Dudley "We'll make it back just fine."
"Thanks Dud" said Harry as he pulled the door open.
The boys walked through the door and was surprised to see a room that must have been magically increased in size as the inside of the tower looked much bigger than the space on the outside would have allowed. They saw a large amount of doors and corridors around them. They heard screaming from their direct left but were sad to see a dozen doors to their immediate left. There were corridors that looked like they veered off to the right and left from where they started off at. They ran to stand in the doorway to the middle one and heard the same screaming voice coming from the path to their left. They ran to the one on the left but when they got to the doorway, they heard it again coming from the one on the far right.
They each stood in front of a pathway and looked at eachother. They nodded and began to run down the different corridors.
Dudley ran down the one on the far left and saw many cells along the walls none of them holding someone he was looking for. He opened each one of the locks nonetheless and pointed the former prisoners towards the exit. He reached two sets of stairs, and a corridor. One set of stairs leading down the other leading up and the hallway twisting ahead. Dudley heard screaming from above him and immediately took the upwards stairs. He reached a hallway and saw a room full of death eaters all staring at the many entrances to the big room. Dudley jumped towards them and began to fight as best as he could. Suddenly there was a bright flash of yellow light and the mass of death eates in front of him dropped and Dudley saw Harry pointing his wand in his direction.
Harry went on down the middle path. A long way down the path the path suddenly twisted upwards much like the slide in the path to Honeydukes from the statue. He held onto the sides as he began to climb. Surprisingly there were cells in the walls and prisoners hanging from chains on the wall. He broke every lock on every cell door and chain links. The prisoners gratefully thanked Harry and followed his direction to the exit. When he reached the platform at the end of the upward path he saw a room of death eaters and someone very skilled fighting his way through the group that looked like 200 death eaters.
Harry noticed that the fighter was Dudley and was about to get blocked in by a huge mass of death eaters. Harry pointed his wand at the mass and concentrated a little bit. "Unis Folgore Conquedens Nogten" shouted Harry and a burst of yellow light flew out of his wand and the mass of death eaters fell to reveal Dudley. Harry ran up and clapped Dudley on the back. "Congratulations Dudley" said Harry "you did a good job from what I could see."
They both whirled around when they heard a new voice screaming coming from below them. "Dudley blow up the door where you came from so we know which way we came from." said Harry as he pointed his wand at the door he came from.
"Amethystia" they shouted together and a pinkish purple spell came out af their wand followed by the accompaning bang as the powerful destruction spell destroyed the doorways to mark their previous paths.
They both watched the doorway where they see a large amounts of green light coming from.
Draco ran full speed down the right hand path and saw a spiraling staircase with a single death eater standing on the bottom step. The death eater he could tell had long white blond hair coming out from behind his mask and hood.
"Father" said Draco Maliciously "What are you doing here?"
"I am here to stop you and your friends from getting Potters brothers back" said Lucius "I can't believe that my own son has betrayed the Dark Lord so bad."
"How can I have betrayed him when I was never on his side to begin with?" said Draco fiercly
"Why you impudent little..." said Lucius. "Just because you are my son does not mean that I have to resist from killing you"
"And just because you are my father does not mean that I have to resist killing you" said Draco
"Avada Kedavra" they yelled in unison both expecting the same from eachother.
Their spells hit in the middle and started to push them each back. Draco planted his feet and began to walk back towards the source of his current mood. Green coils of energy came off of the killing curses and began to destroy the corridor around them. Draco concentrated all of his magical prowess into his wand and tried to push the spell back at his father. Lucius came back with equal concentration. The spell coils were now beginning to expand to the upper level. There were chunks of wall coming through the hole the coils created. The chunks were being sent flying away by the force of the spells. Draco had cuts on his cheek as did Lucius.
"I see I have taught you well my son" yelled Lucius over the power of the spells.
"You were never a father to me" yelled Draco in the same tone of voice.
A clatter of destruction above them startled them both. Lucius jumped and dropped his wand. Draco jumped as well but held on to his wand and regained concentration so his spell continued on and struck his father in the stomach. Lucius looked aghast as the spell hit him. He flew back and went through the stairs as the coils had weakened them largely. Draco climbed up the rubble and continued up the stairs to follow the only path forward. They looked at eachother when Draco appeared in the doorway and went towards the only corridor left. They followed the path and up the stairs. They continued on up the stairs and a vast amount of corridors flew by them as they went down the hallway. They heard screaming and Harry tried to see if it was his brothers or not through his mind. He couldnt feel anything. They went on following the sound of the voice and found another death eater using the cruciatus curse on the prisoner within the bars.
Dudley tackled the death eater to the ground and Harry opened the lock with a destruction spell.
Inside the spell was a man wearing a bracelet with a sapphire inset onto it. It was Riley. He was bleeding and had cuts and bruises all up and down his arm that all looked horribly like whip marks.
Draco helped Dudley take care of the death eater and Harry released his brother. Harry bound the death eater and sent him to the ministry. "Riley, Where are Hank and Steve?" asked Dudley
"I have been beaten halfway to death for almost a full day and the only thing you can say is where are the others?" said Riley sarcastically. He pointed down the hall "I saw them being taken that way"
"Sorry Riley" said Harry catching the sarcasm. Harry reached into his bag and pulled out an improved recipe chocolate frog and handed it to Riley. Riley opened the package and took a bite of the frog. He perked up at once.
"What is this?" asked Riley as his cuts slowly began to heal on their own. He took another bite and he felt rejuvinized and his wounds healed completely
"It's an improved recipe chocolate frog. Hermione owled them and suggested to add a little senzu root to the recipe for improved revitalization. The regular recipe is designed for relief after an incredibally cold experience. The senzu root she suggested to them would help for the coming war that is now here."
"Tell her thank you for saving my life." said Riley "But why didn't we know about them"
"Hermione didn't want anyone but us to know not even my own brothers." said Harry sheepishly
She said it would be more dangerous if people knew about them before they were really supposed to come out. They aren't going to advertise like that just that it is a new formula in the recipe.
"Dude you are so whipped" said Draco
"Really, my brother is whipped huh" said Riley as they began to run towards the next door "Who was it that apparated to wisconsin so his girlfriend could have some of the good cheese? hmm?"
"Hey I did that so I didn't have to listen to her screech" said Draco blushing
"Mhmm" said Harry and Dudley sceptically. They suddenly felt a wave of cold dread wash over them."Look sharp we got dementors"
"Expecto Patronum" They all yelled and four patronus's flew towards the corridor full of dementors. Two stags a bulldog and a ferret flew as one towards them. The stags bucked them, the bulldog tackled them broadside and the ferret bit them. The power behind them destroyed them completely. hundreds of cloaks fell to the floor as their owners were destroyed.
There was a collective sigh of relief as the cells came into view when the fog cleared. They released the locks and chains before running down the corridor. Harry was starting to get worried when he realized that their connection wasn't working even though Riley was running alongside him. They came to the next room and were stopped by a crowd of 200 death eaters.
All 200 death eaters pointed their wands at the kids and a large meteor like blast of Avada Kedavra came shooting at them. They pointed their wands in the same spot and shouted as one Mirrorus. A mirror began to expand from the middle where the wands were. The mirror soon got big enough to shield them and it took the full blast of it. The shield began to crack but withstood and sent the killing curse back at the death eaters who all fell to the ground dead.
The mirror did then crack and shards of mirror broke and the walls were embedded with magical mirror and cut through the locks and chains. The prisoners ran out of the room and to their freedom. A man stumbled towards them. He had a bracelet with a topaz gem inset within it. It was Hank. "Hey guys" he said as he gratefully took the chocolate frog and perked up immediately. "What..." He never finished his sentence as Harry cut him off with the explanation.
"Aah" he said when he swallowed his frog and looked around the room. They ran up the next set of stairs and ran into a room with 500 death eaters.
"Undigem Spiritus Ireanes" Yelled Harry as a spiral of Blue light flew from his wand and supressed the magic of all 500 death eaters and they were leftz defenseless. Dudley used his boxing skills to hit the pressure points on all the death eaters that got in his way. They all fell to the floor as their pressure points were tapped and pain flowed through them. One of the death eaters on their way down kicked Dracos wand upward as he was about to cast a binding spell but he mispronounced it accidently. The mispronounced spell became dangerous and blew a giant hole in the ceiling. There dangling by neck and wrist chains was Hermione. She was turning purple as the collar was strangling her.
Harry flew up to her and cut the chains with a diffindo and she wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him. "Thank you my prince" Harry flew down and Hermione helped him gather the death eaters together.
The group pushed them up against eachother and tied them up. Harry tapped them with his wand and watched them disappear to the ministry. They looked and saw there was only one exit to the room.
"Hon do you think I am whipped?" asked Harry as they began running up the stairs.
"Oh Harry who told you that?" asked Hermione laughing "You are not whipped, you do things for me because you know they will make me happy."
Harry smirked at Riley and looked at Hermione as she continued
"If there is anyone in our group that is whipped it would be Draco" said Hermione as she looked towards Draco
"Hey I resent that" said Draco
"Oh Please, the way Ginny told it as soon as she mentioned that wisconsin had the best cheese in the world you immediately went to the london library, looked up the wisconsin cheese factory and apparated there for a large supply to bring home for her."
"I knew there was something you weren't telling us" said Dudley as he began to laugh. They ran into the next room and looked around for Steve. Suddenly 1000 death eaters appeared in the room. Harry flew up to the top center of the room. "Guys get out of the way" he yelled before pointing his wand at the group. The kids ran back out into the corridor and waited.
"Incibure Confestum Ouis Magica" A purple jet of spiraling light came out of his wand and began to expand in size around the death eaters. The spell released bursts of light that increased magical ability. All the death eaters fell to the ground screaming except one who stood strong.
"Foolish boy you just made a big mistake" He pointed his wand at the kids and started shouting spells. "Avada Kedavra" shouted the death eater and Draco at the same time. The beams met at the same place in the middle of the room. The death eaters spell was much thicker, powerful and faster than Dracos was and was pushing the spell and the caster back. The spell was getting closer to Draco so Riley came up next to Draco and pointed his wand at the death eater. "Stupefy"
"The red of the stunning spell mixed with the killing curse and changed color. The spells together were a little more powerful but not quite. The combined spells pushed back the killing curse just a little and exploded in a shower of sparks.
"Go" yelled Draco "I'll hold him off"
The rest of the group looked disapprovingly at Draco for his choice of spells but ran to the next room anyway. Riley stayed behind to help but ran to help the others when Draco told him that he didn't need any help. Before Riley got to the door a blood red stunner hit him in the back and he fell to the floor.
When Harry and Hank saw this their hair turned blonde and spikey, their bracelets burned bright Red and Yellow respectively as did their scars and eyes. The boys powers combined and created a shield around them as they walked to the middle of the room and the shield acted as a spell magnet. All of Dracos and the death eaters spells were drawn to the shield which kept getting brighter. They reached the middle of the room and their feet left the ground. Draco ran to the rest of the group and outside the doorway. When they reached the ceiling, they flipped over and stood on it. They pointed their hands at each of the doorways and shouted: "Protego Maximus Confestum" A wall of stone came up from the floor and blocked the doorway. They pointed their fingers at the death eater which they just realized was sending a barrage of spells up at them. "Whencudi Faulgti Timimicum Cambriont" A beam of translucent blue light came out of the shieldhit the death eater. But it didn't stop there, it continued like water to fill up the room. They saw the death eater slam into the wall over and over again. They canceled out the magic of the spell and fell to the ground. Their previous magic canceled out and the wall of stone fell to rubble. Hermione and Dudley flew up and caught them before they could hit the ground.
Hermione opened two chocolate frogs and broke the legs off and fed them down the boys throats. They immediately woke up and rubbed their eyes.
"Hermione" asked Harry happily
"I'm here Harry," she said "You are so powerful"
"Thank you dear" said Harry not completely blind to Dudley and Hank pretending to vomit.
Harry revived Riley and gave him a chocolate frog, while still chewing on the frog Hermione had given him. They stood up, took a very short breather and continued on after sending the death eater to the ministry.
They ran into the next room and were ambushed by 1500 death eaters. They all pointed their wands at the kids and spells of all sizes and colors were flying at the kids. 5 wands pointed in 5 different directions and the owners of the wands shouted "Protego" Because of the power behind the spells the shield charms absorbed the spells and sent them back at their original casters. The spells combined into one big ball of magic and engulfed the death eaters in a painful ball of killing, stunning, stinging, destruction, cruciatus, impediment and blasting hexes. The death eaters glowed white and disappeared as the power of the spells sent them into a world beyond our own.
They ran up the stairs and and reached a long corridor with an ominous darkness at the end of it. They reached the middle of the corridor and Harry, Hank and Riley held their heads and began to scream. In their heads they heard the chillingly cold voice of Lord Voldemort. The pain subsided and they were able to listen to Voldemort and continue on to find Steve.
"Now Mr. Potter I know you are a pure slytherin heir just like me, I know your arrogance and lust for power are more prominant now that you are seperated from the original Potter. So I hold my hand out for you to join me and we the two remaining heirs of Salazar Slytherin will dessimate the muggle world and erase the disease of mudbloods off the face of this planet forever."
"I see a few problems with your plan there Voldemort" said Steve"
"I see no problems" said Voldemort
"One, you are not an heir at all anymore: your skin is that of wormtail, your blood is from my brother Gryffindor Harry and your bone is from your Muggle father. You have no more slyhterin blood in you than that of Albus Dumbledore." Two, to destroy the muggleborns would be to destroy yourself and me in the process. Remember your father was a muggle and you used his bones to resurrect yourself."
"You impudent little brat" said Voldemort
"You are never going to defeat my brothers and friends" spat Steve
"After wiping the spit off of his face, he pointed his wand at Steve and began to concentrate on the torture curse.
"Harry, Hank, Riley, Hermione, Draco and Dudley burst through the door and shot a stunning spell at Voldemort and knocked him out the window. Voldemort was angry needless to say that he had been surprised and knocked out the window but the anger tripled when he saw the hundreds of prisoners standing on the beach of the island. He got control of his flight and pointed his wand at the disapparition field and decided he could use the prisoners later to gain some control back. He pointed his wand at the group of prisoners and concentrated. "Immineamanuraes" and a black jet of light created a dome around the group and absorbed around them. He smiled on the inside and disapparated back to his hideout in the depths of the earth.
They released Steve from the chains and realized that their connection was working again.
Harry and the group ran out of the tower to see the prisoners just starting to apparate away.
"Wait stop" said Harry
"What Mr. Potter?" asked one of the prisoners
"Why are you all just now leaving?"
"Because You-Know-Who had an antidisapparition field up and we couldn't leave." said the man "He just got rid of the shield and apparated out"
"Oh Thank you sir" said Harry as he and the group apparated out as close to Hogwarts as they could and prepared to face the punishments they were sure to recieve after leaving the way they did.
