Chapter 5

The fight was soon on the initial attack had been short lived and the deatheaters had been driven from the school. Now Voldemort's full army was after them.

The defenses could only last for so long when the fighting began Rose was all over the place Grayback was her main target she kept going after him but on the way she would help others she blocked a curse ready to hit Remus she deflected a wall that was about to crush Fred and Percy Weasley. She stunned a man that was about to attack Colin Creavy. She finally found him about to attack Lavender Brown she blasted him off of her then bound him so he wouldn't be able to hurt anyone else. Shortly before dawn there was a loll in the fighting they were able to collect their dead and wounded.

Rose was exhausted she sat in the great hall where everyone seemed to be gathering. Voldemorts voice boomed through the air "you all have fought valiently I will give you until dawn to deliver Harry Potter into my hands if you fail to do so I will enter the fight myself no mercy will be shown."

Rose looked around the room she saw Hermione and Ron but no Harry. She sighed she was sure he had gone to face Voldemort. Dumbledore was dead Rose wasn't sure who killed him she didn't see Snape and feared the worse for him. Remus was pacing through the room Tonk's had not show up yet or her body found. Rose released a breath she didn't realize she was holding when Tonks came running in and embraced Remus. She looked over to where all of the Weasley's tired, bruised but whole were gathered.

A group of Slytherins that comprised of Rose's lovers and some of their friends went up to her Goyle said "we can't fight anymore that is our family out there and with the dark lord joining we don't stand a chance."

Rose stood up and said loud enough for all to hear "you all have more to lose then most of us none of us will think you are cowardly if you leave now. The passage is still open you will be safely in Hogsmead in just a few minutes. I selected all of you because I thought there was something special about you. Some of you deep down but it is there if you are the men I thought you were you would stay with me and fight beside me but go if you are really only boys who follow in their parents ways."
