I do not own Harry Potter only the situations in which I put them in. I also own Amy, who is not to be used by others without my permission.
Amy rushed down through the castle until she came to the top of the Grand Staircase where she looked down at the army forming in the entrance hall. Of course the professors were all assembled there and they appeared to be giving the older students a last minute lecture that would unfortunately be some of their last. Then there was a group standing near the oak doors getting prepared for the fight, and they all had uniforms that had a majestic crest on their backs with the letters OotP. As she scanned the group she saw Remus, Tonks and, surprisingly, the Weasleys along with other wizards and witches she didn't recognize. Then in another corner of the hall she saw another smaller group of people and, what she guessed, to be the Hogwart's house elves.
Amy ran down the stairs to meet up with Harry and the others. When she reached them, they all turned to her and greeted her with fear, apprehension and defiance in their eyes and tone of voice.
"Ok everyone, this is it," Amy said quietly despite all the noise in the hall. "I wish all of you the best of luck. Stay together if you can. It's easier to pick off one person than an entire group."
They all nodded solemnly and Harry said, "You be careful too, Amy. We want to see you after this."
All of them nodded in agreement and then they all rushed to her and gathered in a group hug. It was a little bit before they broke apart and Amy replied thickly, "I want to see all of you again too."
Then someone hugged her from behind and started crying. Amy struggled to turn around to see who it was when she saw that it was Mrs. Weasley with Mr. Weasley standing right behind her.
"You take care of yourself now, dear," Mrs. Weasley advised thickly, sniffling slightly. "Also know that your parents would be extremely proud of you if they were here."
At that moment, Eli put his hand on her shoulder and said, "As I am now."
Amy smiled up at him, and then he said in a quieter voice, "Sweetheart, may I see you for one moment?"
Amy nodded and gave the others a short wave of her hand in goodbye before she turned and followed Eli into a more open spot in the hall. He stopped and looked down at her, tears welling in his eyes as he said hoarsely, "Be careful, baby girl. I will be right there beside you the whole time. If something happens to you tonight I…."
He couldn't finish. Amy hugged him and said, "I'll be fine, Gramps. You be careful too. I couldn't live without you either, you know?"
Eli sniffed and gave her a watery smile as he patted her on the back and then scooped her up into a bear hug. As they stood there, grandfather and granddaughter holding each other for what could possibly be the last time; Eli whispered into her hair, "I'm glad I decided to adopt you all those years ago. You have brought nothing but joy and youth back into my life. I couldn't have asked for a better gift in life than you."
It was Amy's turn now for her eyes to well up with tears as she choked, "Thanks, Gramps. You have been nothing but wonderful to me my whole life. You never treated me different and you always had time to be there for me. You are the best grandfather and role model a girl could ever ask for."
They broke apart, each wiping away their tears as McGonagall came up to both of them and said courageously but fearfully, "We are ready when you are."
Amy and Eli looked at each other and nodded. Eli called loudly to the whole hall which immediately fell silent, "Everyone, it's time we ended this. Each of you has volunteered to battle, and I want you all to be aware, especially the students, that this very well could be your last night here on earth. Prepare yourself for pain, torture and death. These are dark, desperate and evil wizards who want nothing more than to see you dead. However, you can defeat them if you keep a cool head on your shoulders. I wish everyone the best of luck, and, regrettably, I bid some of you goodbye and thank you for helping us to finally defeat the wizard who has terrorized this country for far too long!"
Instantly the hall burst into cheers. Without being told they all lined themselves up behind Amy and Eli, and waited for their next order. Both Lieutenant and General took a brief look at each other, nodded and moved their army forward. Eli magically opened the doors onto the grounds where they were met by a marvelous sight. Immediately in front of them was the army of magical creatures. It seemed every creature had turned up to fight alongside Fionn in the battle against Good versus Evil.
Then about a hundred and fifty yards ahead of them was Voldemort's army thick with Death Eaters and dark creatures. They were lined up much like Amy's army was, waiting for Amy to step forward and start the battle. Back behind the magical creatures, Amy looked at her grandfather, McGonagall and her brother one last time, before she bravely walked up to the front of her army. Once she appeared and the enemy saw her, boos, howls, grunts and other terrible sounds greeted her from Voldemort's side.
Amy waited looking for either Drake or Voldemort when she saw the other army parting down the middle. At first she couldn't see the cause of it, and then she saw Drake and Voldemort emerge from the midst of the gruesome army. Voldemort magically magnified his voice so that everyone could hear him say, "Well, Amelia, I must say I'm impressed with the little army you were able to conjure up. However, they will be no match for me and my army."
At that, his army gave off more terrible noises and immediately hushed when he continued, "But Lord Voldemort is merciful. I will give Amy a choice. She can both surrender her life and save everyone else's, or she can continue to fight me and others will pointlessly lose their lives. Which will it be?"
At once, all eyes turned to her awaiting her decision. It pained her to say her decision, but she felt it was for the best.
"Voldemort," she said, magically magnifying her voice as well, "if I die and let you get away, it won't solve any of their problems. You will continue to terrorize them, and what would have been the use of me coming here? No, I will have to fight you, and, unfortunately, ask these fine people and creatures to give up their lives, not for me, but for the freedom they deserve and have a right to."
Her army cheered as she imagined Voldemort was getting slightly aggravated. She waited a few moments, and then she heard him say as casually as if he were talking to her over drinks, "Very well then, Amelia. I gave you a choice, and now you must live with the consequences…KILL THEM ALL!"
At once, his army roared again in a battle cry as Voldemort's army ran towards them full force sending spells ahead of them. The magical creatures raced out in front of the Death Eaters ready to maul anyone who got in their way.
It didn't take Amy long to yell attack before she changed into Fionn and raced out just as fast to meet the opposing army. The magical creatures were right behind her, the centaurs sending arrows flying towards the enemy trying to hit one of them before they got any closer to the wizards who were hanging back to protect the castle, and be there in case the front lines needed reserves.
It seemed like forever to Amy as she ran to fight. Finally she met the first creature, a goblin, and with a snarl hit him across the face with her paw, cutting his face and hitting him so hard he fell dead. She then met another creature, a werewolf, and fought with him until she successfully killed it a minute later. The centaurs were also doing a marvelous job of hitting close targets so that Amy's way was clear for the most part as she searched for the one person that she would have to battle sooner or later.
The wizards watched from afar as the first line of the offense knocked down creature after creature, and sometimes saw one of their allies get killed. Eli, Minerva, Severus, Harry, Hermione, Ginny and Ron searched vigorously for any sight of Amy to make sure that she was okay. Every once in a while they saw a flash of white fur telling them that Amy was at least still fighting. The longer Harry had to wait to take action, the edgier he got. And secretly so did Eli and the rest of them.
The battle had lasted thirty minutes before the wizards in Voldemort's army started to move, and Eli called to the wizards around him, "Alright, the Death Eaters are on the move. LET'S GO!"
Immediately, the Order rushed out to back their comrades up which didn't go unnoticed by the Death Eaters. As soon as they saw the Order start to approach, they sent spells at their first line causing Amy to shout, "Fall back some! Let the others join us!"
Quickly her army started to go back to meet the other half of their friends. Spells were exploding all around them, and unfortunately, some were hit and killed. Suddenly, Amy felt the ground underneath explode and she flew through the air along with two centaurs. They crashed to the ground. Amy slowly stood up, looking around her as the dust settled. She saw dark, blurry figures growing larger as they moved towards her and the two centaurs that hadn't moved since they hit the ground. They were dead. Amy squinted at the figures until they busted through the veil of dust and sent spells at her. With a snarl, Amy turned tail and ran towards her grandfather who had seen her get thrown into the air and had started for her. She almost reached him until a black shadow leaped in front of her, blocking her path to her grandfather. Only when the pitch black object looked up could Amy see the yellowish-orange of his eyes. It was Kieran.

Amy skidded to halt in surprise, and simply stared at him. After all these years, Amy thought sadly to herself, and this is how it's going to end.
She peered around him and saw her grandfather looking anxiously at her, and then she peered around him to see everyone else fighting a Death Eater or two. In slow motion she saw both friend and foe falling to the ground either gravely injured or dead. She saw students getting shot down from Death Eaters who tortured them for sport before they killed them or left them for death. She then looked behind her and saw creatures fighting each other, and also saw them one by one falling to their deaths. She then zoned in on Professors Snape and McGonagall fighting Death Eaters, and saw how injured and exhausted they were.
Painfully Amy tore her eyes away from the deaths and chaos and darkly whispered to Kieran, "It's time we ended this."
Kieran snarled showing his teeth in a sadistic smile, and howled. Amy joined in too, and by the time they were finished everyone from both armies had their eyes on them. All at once they gathered together, not bothering to hex the person they stood next to if they were on the opposing side. They formed a circle around the wolves, and watched as the two circled around each other. Eli, Minerva, Severus, and the gang pushed their way to the front to watch the fight that would decide whether Voldemort lived or died and whether Amy lived or died. As the wolves circled each other, Amy decided to try and reach out to Drake through Wolf language that only the two of them could understand. She just hoped that Kieran wasn't such a dominant force over Drake that she couldn't reach her childhood friend.
Drake, can you hear me?
Amy? I'm so sorry this happened. I don't want to hurt you, but I don't have a choice!
Everyone has a choice, Drake. You know in your heart that I can't kill you.
I can't kill you either…
Be honest with me, Drake. Did Voldemort make you a Horcrux?
Yes…
Amy hung her head at that answer. So she was going to have to kill him. She looked back up into his eyes that were pained as well.
Drake, I'm going to have to get rid of that piece of Voldemort's soul inside you. I have to kill you.
Amy, I have to kill you too just to appease Voldemort.
Well, then I guess we have a problem.
Yeah.
They were silent and unmoving for a while as they thought about what to do. Finally they both looked up at each other as they came to the same conclusion.
We're going to have to fight each other, Drake. There is no other way. Maybe we can finally get rid of this wolf curse.
Yeah, but I don't want to kill you!
Well, I don't want to kill you either, so I guess we're really going to have to fight. I'm sorry it had to end like this, Drake. You know how this will turn out.
I know, but before we do this, I just wanted to say I love you, Amy.
I love you too. Great, Drake, now this is going to be even harder!
Suddenly Drake showed his teeth and snarled, Amy followed his lead thinking he was playing along when Fionn interrupted her thoughts, Child, this is not Drake. This is my battle let me fight it, young one.
Alright.
I promise to do everything I can to help with your current dilemma.
Thanks.
Instantly Amy and Fionn changed controls. Now the legendary fight between the ancient symbols of Good and Evil was about to unfold again.
LS
The two wolves snarled at each other again before they rushed at each other and met in mid-air. They scratched and clawed and bit and wrestled with each other before they even hit the ground. As soon as one got up the other was there to tackle him or her to the ground and furiously start beating up on them. It seemed the battle went on for hours as both armies watched in amazement at the intensity at which these wolves fought.
Voldemort was watching as well from the sidelines, and took notice of how wrapped up everyone was in this battle, and took the opportunity to seek out Amy's one weakness that would make her give up, and it didn't take him long to find him.
An hour passed and the two wolves were still at it, ripping each others flesh off, and causing them to bleed even worse. The sight was horrible where they fought with blood glistening on the grass, and chunks of fur lying in places.
Unnoticed by anyone, Voldemort snuck around to the other side of the ring where Eli was standing, watching his granddaughter with baited breath. He was too busy to notice that Voldemort had his wand trained on him about to do the unthinkable.
Suddenly Fionn turned around after just knocking Kieran to the ground in time to see Voldemort raise his wand. She looked in the direction he was pointing, and saw that he was aiming at her grandfather. Immediately Amy took control again and howled loudly in warning. Eli noticed a little too late, and turned just as Voldemort whispered something, and threw Eli out into the middle of the circle where the old man landed hard on his back. Temporarily winded, he struggled to move as Amy rushed over to him, but just then Kieran jumped on her so that she could not help her grandfather, and though she vigorously struggled, couldn't get out of his grip and could only watch what was about to happen.
Voldemort then stepped forward, pointed his wand at Eli and said, "Crucio!"
Amy watched in horror as her grandfather wriggled around like a fish out of water in total pain. Voldemort lifted it, and then hit him again with it. Each time Voldemort hit him with one Cruciatus curse after the other, Amy struggled more and more, desperately trying to reach her grandfather. After the seventh time, Amy finally broke free and ran to him. Voldemort stopped and watched her in satisfaction as she cried, calling out to her only guardian and protector, putting his head in her lap trying to support him.
She stroked his head and beard as he spat up some blood and croaked, "Amy?"
"I'm right here, Gramps," Amy whispered, silent tears running down her face. "Don't talk now."
"Be careful, sweetheart," Eli struggled to say and cringed in pain. Amy cried a little harder and nodded. Eli slowly continued, "I have been blessed to raise you as my own. You have made me proud, and I wouldn't have wanted anyone else for my granddaughter."
Amy was almost sobbing now as she said, "I wouldn't have any other grandfather either!"
At that, she laid her head on top of his and cried hard but softly. The Order looked away as though they thought they were intruding on a private scene. The Death Eaters however, laughed and mocked her, Lestrange calling out in a baby voice saying, "Does the wittle baby miss her Gwandaddy?"
Suddenly Amy felt a light but reassuring hand on her shoulder, and looked up blurry eyed to see McGonagall looking at her with red, puffy eyes as well and whispered, "I'll take care of him, Amy."
Amy nodded and McGonagall Levitated Eli out of the circle and passed the crowd of mocking Death Eaters making noises and faces at her as she passed into an open space where she and Severus could look over his injuries and try to help as best they could. Amy remained on the ground on her knees when she felt another hand on her shoulder and looked up to see Harry standing there, his wand pointing at Voldemort's heart. Not taking his eyes off him Harry said roughly, "You've got to do it now, Amy. You've got to kill Drake so I can kill the man who has almost killed your grandfather!"
All of a sudden, darkness seemed to fill Amy as though she were possessed by a power that wanted nothing but to kill when Harry said those words. Looking at Kieran she got up and transformed back into Fionn. Snarling at the Black Wolf she growled, "You'll pay for this!"
At that, Amy rushed at Kieran, took him quickly around the neck, and clamped down hard. Kieran only had time to extract his claws and stab Amy in the heart. Stunned, she slowly let go with the sudden shock, and watched him struggling to stay alive as well. However, she knew that it was too late. She gave the circle one last look, and then gave her grandfather one last look who was staring at her wide eyed in disbelief. She changed back into her human form and said barely audible, "It's over."
Then she fell to her knees, and then onto her back where she fell dead, and Drake later changed back to his human self too and fell dead beside her.
