Hey guys. It's Monday and I leave in 45 minutes, so I decided to type a short chapter for you. So here it is! Oh and today is Monday March 21, 2011. Is it the first day of spring today?
Chapter 35
Christmas Eve arrived and Alex and Hermione are getting their dresses on.
"Have you had any meetings this month?" Hermione asked Alex.
"Surprisingly no" Alex smiled and sighed, "are you done?" Alex watched Hermione finish her hair and Alex's is already normal, but half up and half done. The dress that Alex is wearing is black with spaghetti straps and it goes to her knees. Hermione's is the same but pink. Hermione has her hair in a bun and she turned around.
"I'm ready" they slipped on their shoes, and Alex's is flats and Hermione's is high heels. As they walked to the common room, they saw Harry and Ron waiting for them.
"Hey" Ron greeted and held his arm out to Alex.
"Wow, you are being a gentleman for once in your life" Alex teased and linked her arm through Ron's. Harry and Hermione did the same and they all walked down to the great hall, where the dance is being held.
~HP & WOWP~
As the dance went on and 11pm arrived, all the teachers were there dancing. Normally the first dance would be the champions and their partners, but they changed it for the fun of it.
"Ok everyone. The 5 champions are going to dance with their partners" Dumbledore told everyone. Harry and Hermione got into position, and Alex and Ron argued, both not wanting to.
"Russo, Weasley, get out there" Alex and Ron sighed and took their position. They all saw every student watching them and Cedric and his date Cho are a few feet away.
"You alright Russo?" Cedric asked Alex.
"No, I hate dances but I HAVE to be here" Alex frowned and looked at Ron, "we are going to run away and never come back after, right?" Ron nodded
"Ok" Ron changed Alex's stand and got her into the waltz position, "we are waltzing" Ron explained
"Oh" Alex nodded as the music began. Ron led Alex across the room, and you have to admit, Ron is a really good dancer and it looks like Harry is too.
~HP & WOWP~
After the dance, Alex felt the necklace burning. Alex groaned and looked sadly at her friends.
"He's calling" Alex whispered to them as they all sat down, "well; I'm going to the bathroom. I'll be right back" Alex saw Snape and Malfoy leave and went into the hall. Alex stood up and started to walk out and Hermione fallowed without Alex noticing.
"Alex!" Hermione whispered and grabbed Alex's hand. But it was too late. Hermione and Alex disappeared before Alex could stop it. They both popped out in the meeting room and Alex groaned. She turned around and saw Hermione looking fearful. Alex grabbed Hermione's hand and saw Voldemort smiling at her.
"Hello daughter" Voldemort greeted and Alex rolled her eyes and tightened her grip on Hermione's.
"Stupid pea brain" Alex smirked when she heard everyone, including Voldemort gasp, "what? He ruined my night by making me come here. I was having fun with my friends" Voldemort rolled his eyes and smirked.
"Ahh, Alex brought her friend" Alex caught Snape's eye and looked sadly at him.
"Actually, Hermione and I were talking when the burning started. I was trying to move the necklace, and Hermione and I were having a heart to heart moment. I sorta brought both of us here by mistake" Alex lied and Voldemort nodded
"Oh, ok" Voldemort accepted, "well, Miss Granger. My daughter Alex told me a lot about you, Ron Weasley and Harry Potter. Alex and Severus Snape told me that Alex and Harry are dating. Is that true?" Alex and Hermione made eye contact and Hermione hid herself behind her best friend.
"Yes it is" Hermione whispered
"Good. Now we have a meeting to start" Alex groaned and she dragged Hermione to the table. They all sat down and Voldemort made a chair appear right beside Alex, for Hermione, "have a seat Miss Granger" Hermione sat down and attached herself to Alex. Alex smiled at Hermione and winked.
"But Voldy, do I have to listen to this meeting?" Alex asked looking at Voldemort.
"Yes, it's about the 3rd task" Alex sighed and rolled her eyes
"What about it this time?"
"Well, my follower, Barty Crouch Junior, is impersonating Mad-Eye Moody" Alex nodded
"Well, I knew someone was, but not who. Could I tell Dumbledore?" Alex asked excitedly and Voldemort glared at her.
"No, unless you want me to kill you" Voldemort threatened
"But then how can you kill my boyfriend and Dumbledore?" Alex smirked and felt Hermione tighten her grip.
"Then I will kill your friend there" Alex rolled her eyes
"Then I will be on Harry's and Dumbledore's side and we will kill you" Voldemort rolled his eyes
"Is this a routine for you?" Voldemort asked and Alex nodded with a smirk still on her face.
"Pretty much" Alex clapped her hands together and stood up and Hermione stayed seated, "ok, so now the meeting is done, and me and Hermy want to get back before the dance is done" Voldemort sighed and glared.
"We're not done yet" Alex sighed and sat back down.
"When will you be done? I want to be at the dance, since for once I was having fun"
"Will you stop talking for me to tell you what's going on?"
"You know I never do what I am told" Alex turned to Malfoy and Hermione looked as well, "Anyway, hi Malfoy. Did you have fun on Pluto?" Alex smiled when she saw Malfoy not make eye contact with her. Alex and Hermione saw Voldemort glare at Alex.
"I still have a bone to pick with you Alex. Why did you send Draco to Pluto?" Voldemort asked
"He was going to tell everyone that I am your daughter, so I sent him to Pluto. Snape already yelled at me about that already" Alex answered when she looked at Voldemort and glared, "now what's this about the 3rd task?"
"Oh, it's in the spring, around April" Alex nodded
"2 months before school ends" Alex sighed, "can you stop calling me here? I already know all this crap and I want to pass my exams" Voldemort sighed and looked at Snape
"Pass her in Potions" Snape nodded and looked at Alex with amusement in his eyes, waiting for her to piss off Voldemort even more.
"Voldy? Can I have a pet shark?" Alex asked when Voldemort looked at her.
"No" Voldemort answered
"Why?"
"Because I said no"
"Why?" Voldemort sighed
"Just because"
"Why?"
"Will you shut up?"
"Why?"
"Cause I said so"
"Why?"
"I'm your dad"
"Why?"
"You have been born and you have part of me in you"
"Why?"
"Don't make me shut you up myself"
"Why?"
"You're pissing me off"
"Why?"
"For repeating why over and over again"
"Why?" Voldemort glared and Snape bit his lip to keep from laughing. Alex has a HUGE smirk on her face and Hermione kept a straight face, but is laughing on the inside.
"SHUT THE HELL UP!" Alex rolled her eyes
"Why?" Alex and Hermione quickly disappeared before he snaps again.
~HP & WOWP~
When Hermione and Alex appeared in the school, in the hallway, they burst out laughing.
"Do you do that each meeting?" Hermione giggled and Alex nodded
"Pretty much. I LOVE pissing him off" Alex laughed and they saw Harry and Ron run over.
"Are you ok Hermione? What happened? Where did you go?" Ron asked in panic. Alex sighed and rolled her eyes
"Oh, so I'm chopped liver. I feel so loved" Alex teased as she hugged Hermione, "and Hermione is fine. She ended up coming with me to the meeting. I kept her safe Ron" Ron nodded and took a deep breath. Ron and Hermione made eye contact, and Harry and Alex smiled, "Harry and I are going to dance" Alex grabbed Harry's hand and they disappeared into the great hall.
As they danced, Hermione and Ron got into a fight, about Krum. It turns out, Krum has been using Hermione to learn about the tasks, and Ron took it the wrong way. Hermione ran into the great hall crying and she ran to Alex. Alex and Harry saw Hermione run to them and dove into Alex's arms. Alex sighed and pulled Hermione out of the room and to the stairs. They both sat down and Alex comforted her. Ron and Harry walked over to them and Alex glared at Ron.
"Get lost Ron" Alex snapped and held Hermione closer, "you've done enough damage"
"You don't even know what's going on!" Ron shouted and Alex stood up.
"Oh ya, well Hermy ran to me crying and obviously I would take her side!" Alex shouted back, "Just go and do whatever!" Ron stalked over to her and pushed her to the ground. Alex quickly jumped to her feet and punched him in the stomach, "DON'T TOUCH ME!" Ron glared at her and punched her in the cheek.
"You think you're so tough for being the Dark Lord's daughter. Well news flash, you're as weak as a piece of paper!" Alex gasped when she saw that most of the school is out in the hallway. Alex narrowed her eyes and punched Ron once more before turning and running up the stairs. She heard everyone whispering about her and she just kept running.
~HP & WOWP~
Back in the hallway, Ron covered his mouth. Hermione glared at Ron and pushed him.
"How could you? You are so stupid. I can't believe I fell for you!" Hermione ran up the stairs after Alex and just kept running. Harry looked between Ron and the way Alex and Hermione ran off in, and he sighed.
"Ron, that was stupid, but I know you were mad. But you need to go apologize as soon as you can" Harry whispered and stayed with Ron. Ron looked at Harry and nodded
"I will" Ron and Harry slowly walked up the stairs and didn't turn back.
~HP & WOWP~
As March arrived and left, Ron has kept trying to apologize to Alex and Hermione, but Alex didn't listen. Hermione has forgiven Ron about the dance, and Alex barely talked to anyone. She has been distancing herself from everyone and if one tried to talk to her, she would walk away. Normally, she would never walk away from Hermione when Hermione talked to her, but now she did. Ron, Hermione and Harry have been worrying about her like crazy and they have always been together fallowing Alex, or just sat together in classes and meals. When classes and dinner are over, Alex would either go for a walk in the grounds or go up to the common room. Alex has been going to Voldemort's meetings day and night, and she has gotten really behind on sleep. Today is the day of the 3rd task, and it's the day everyone finds out who wins the money.
"Alex" Hermione whispered as Alex got dressed in her jeans, t-shirt, and sweater that says Russo on the back in yellow and red. Alex turned around as she slipped on her converse and walked out, right passed Hermione. Hermione sighed and fallowed her.
Down at the Quidditch stadium, everyone is seated and looking out at the maze, that has been created there. Alex stood at one entrance, while the other champions are as well, in their places. They heard the cannon go off, and Alex's and Harry's entrances opened. Alex and Harry walked in and kept their wands pointed forward. As Alex's walked she saw dementors.
"Expecto Patronum!" Alex summoned her patronus and she made all the dementors disappear. Alex ran down pathways and she felt like someone is fallowing and watching her. Alex turned around and saw the Triwizard cup. Alex ran for it but was stopped.
"Petrificus Totalus" Alex fell to the ground and saw Cedric run by but tripped and started to get attacked by the maze.
"Alex!" Alex saw Harry run to her as she started to get sucked out by the maze. Harry pulled Alex got and helped Alex sit up once the body-bind curse wore off.
"Harry?" Alex gasped. She had to admit, she was scared.
"Are you ok?" Harry whispered and helped her to her feet.
"Now I am. Who's gone?"
"Everyone but us. Krum was possessed like you said; Fleur is gone and Cedric is gone" Alex nodded and they walked hand-in-hand to the cup, "on the count of 3?"
"Ya. 1…"
"2…"
"3" they both grabbed the cup and they transported to the graveyard, that is headquarters. Alex and Harry got to their feet and Alex sighed, "come on" they walked to the centre and saw Voldemort's death eaters. Alex turned and glared at them, "you better be nice and NOT hurt Harry" the death eaters nodded and Voldemort got carried out by Pettigrew. Pettigrew started the spell and Alex didn't bother to listen. All she did is stare at the cauldron in the middle of the circle. Alex closed her eyes when Pettigrew cut off his hand and grabbed the bone of Voldemort's father. Alex grabbed Harry's arm as Pettigrew cut his wrist with the knife and got some blood. Once he was done with Harry, Pettigrew cut Alex's wrist and got some of her blood. Alex sighed and looked away when Pettigrew dropped Voldemort into the cauldron. The cauldron started to turn black and everyone saw Voldemort take over the spot where Voldemort was.
"Pettigrew, my wand" Voldemort directed coldly. Pettigrew gave Voldemort his white, long, evil wand. Voldemort smirked and Harry's scar started to burn. Alex held Harry's hand tightly and they sat down on the ground, knowing if they leave, Voldemort would try to kill them.
Voldemort started a speech and Alex sighed.
"Can you stop talking? You're back and we want to leave" Alex groaned and rolled her eyes. Alex stood up and looked down at her wand. She started to play with it and whispered, "From your chin to your toes and elephant trunk grows" Alex covered her mouth when she saw Voldemort's nose turn into a trunk. Alex started to laugh and she fell to the ground, "I can't breathe" Alex gasped for air and when her breathing returned normal, she saw Voldemort glaring.
"You know Alex, now you've done it" Voldemort pointed his wand at Harry, "Avada Kedavra" Alex quickly stepped in the path and pointed her wand
"Expelliarmus!" Alex and Harry shouted and blocked him. Their sparks are purple while Voldemort's is red. Harry and Alex saw Harry's parents come out along with an old guy from their dreams. Alex saw her friends, Harper, and her friends from Wiztech.
"Alex, your dad killed us. He's going to kill you and Harry. You guys have to leave!" Harper told Alex and Harry
"Honey, we all will block to save you. Go to the cup… both of you. Save yourselves. You guys are ready, let go" Harry's mom Lily told them, "let go" Alex and Harry broke the spell and ran for the cup as their friends and Harry's parents, Lily and James blocked Voldemort. Alex and Harry grabbed the cup and disappeared back to Hogwarts.
~HP & WOWP~
As they dropped from the sky, Alex started to cry hard. Harry gasped for air and once it was back, he crawled to Alex and hugged her tightly. Moody walked over and grabbed Alex tightly and vanished before Dumbledore and Harry could blink.
"Alex!" Harry whispered and Dumbledore ran over.
"She's strong Harry. The first place she will want to go is…" Snape walked over and whispered something in Dumbledore's ear and Dumbledore, Snape and McGonagall ran for the school.
With Alex, Moody dropped Alex in his office.
"Is he back?" Moody asked and Alex looked down. Moody stormed over and grabbed Alex's bleeding arm, "he is back" Alex tried to pull her arm away and when that didn't work, she bit his hand. He let her go and she jumped back and ran behind the chest and pointed her wand at him.
"Stand back Crouch" Alex glared and she couldn't stop herself from shaking.
"Or what?" he stepped forward and Alex backed up and crashed into the wall.
"Or you will be sent to Azkaban" a voice behind him spoke. Crouch turned around to see Dumbledore, McGonagall and Snape. Crouch smirked and glared at Alex.
"At least I did my job. The Dark Lord will just break me out anyway" Alex point whispered a spell that none of them can hear.
"Soap on a rope, soap fell off a rope, rope shot out of my hand, rope tie up that man" the next second, everyone saw Crouch get tied up. Alex wiped her fallen tears and McGonagall ran over to her as Crouch fell onto a bench. McGonagall hugged Alex and pulled her away from the chest. She pulled Alex behind Dumbledore and Snape pointed his wand at Crouch. Dumbledore dumped a vial of some blue stuff down Crouch's throat and Crouch started to change back into himself. Alex gasped and hid her face in McGonagall's shoulder.
"I'll show you mine if you show me yours" Crouch proposed.
"Alex, may I?" Dumbledore asked and took her left hand gently. Alex nodded weakly and Dumbledore gently pulled Alex forward to show Crouch Alex's still bleeding cut. Crouch smirked at everyone.
"You know what this means? He's back. The Dark Lord has risen again, and it's all because of his daughter" Alex whimpered and Dumbledore held Alex closely.
"And she's on our side so he's going to die once again. Have fun in Azkaban" Dumbledore and McGonagall helped Alex out of the room and up to the hospital wing, as Snape guarded Crouch, until the Auroras arrived.
~HP & WOWP~
Another month went by and Alex is still blaming herself for everything. The Durmstang students went back to their school without Karkaroff and the French school, that Alex keeps forgetting, left the same day. Harry and Alex both got 10,000 gold coins for winning the Triwizard tournament and Harry gave his to the Weasley twins. All Alex did was toss them in her trunk and walked away. Alex is currently sitting in the common room looking at the pictures she got. One is of her and Harry, the other is the Triwizard tournament tasks, another is of her and Hermione, then her and Ron at the ball, all 4 of them together when they first met and finally her and Justin, Max, Theresa and Jerry. The last 2 pictures Alex have are of her and Harper and then her and her friends from Wiztech. Alex allowed the tears to fall and as she looked at the picture from Wiztech, she remembered Miranda and the twins weren't there. Alex smiled weakly knowing Miranda is safe here and Hogwarts, but she doesn't know about Sophia and Allison.
"Maybe it's a trick?" Alex whispered to herself, "or they are really dead" Alex curled herself into a small ball and heard the door opened.
"Ally?" Alex looked up to see Hermione, Ron and Harry. They walked over slowly and sat down next to her. Hermione pulled Alex onto her lap so Ron could sit on the left and Harry on the right. Alex whimpered and Harry, Hermione and Ron hugged her tightly, "We're sorry"
"Not your fault" Alex whispered like she's a small 5 year old learning to talk. Alex hid her face in Hermione's neck and cried.
"We'll be here and we will not leave you. We won't let anyone hurt you again" Hermione whispered as Ron took off Alex's necklace.
"You are NOT going back to those meetings" Ron told Alex when she looked at him. She nodded as Ron threw the necklace into the fire, and they all watched it burn. That is the end of Alex doing ANYTHING and has ANYTHING to do with Voldemort.
