Nunquam Praeclarus
Final Showdown
Chapter Eight
The faint drip of water on flagstones could be heard by Ron and Hermione as the sat shaking in a corner of the small basement room. Wormtail had discovered them and brought them to Voldermort. It was a miracle he hadn't killed them then and there - but the sight of Voldermort had been the most terrifying experience for both of them. However, they now knew Voldermort's plan. They had known it for years but now they had heard Him say it - it seemed real. Voldermort was going to kill Harry once and for all and there was nothing they could do.
"Hermione?" Ventured Ron,
"I don't know how to get out, Ron, no." Hermione gave a great sniff and lent her head back onto the stone wall behind her, her eyes filling with tears. "There's nothing we CAN do! We're locked in here without our wands, and even if we had them Wormtail has already told us it's magically sealed! There's nothing we can do!"
At this Hermione burst into tears as Ron put his arms around her.
"We'll figure a way out…I promise."
As they held each other, they heard three sets of footsteps echoing down the hall. Hermione and Ron held each other closer as the large wooden door was unlocked and swung open…Wormtail came scurrying in followed by a tall thin man. Voldermort. They could see no one else.
"So - Granger the mudblood and Weasly the muggle-lover…Your going to help me kill Harry Potter, you know."
"Never," spat out Hermione and Ron echoed his agreement. Suddenly a small black blur flashed out behind Voldermort…and started pinching Ron's nose.
"Ow! Get off me you freak!" Ron aimed a punch at it and it toddled of screeching. As Ron rubbed his sore nose, Voldermort picked the weird thing up and cooed at it.
"Aww! Poor little Micro-Vold, I won't let that nasty Weasly hurt you again, oh you poor thing." Hermione and Ron stared.
"What is the matter, Micro-Vold?" Voldermort sat down in a corner and started talking to his clone in a small voice. Wormatil was watching Ron and Hermione, occasionally twitching.
"Micro-Vold…would you like a Hot Pocket? Are you sure? I love you, you complete me…if I lost you I don't know what I would do…Of course I would probably create a new clone, but there would be a ten minute period were I would be inconsolable…"
Ron and Hermione looked at each other and silently agreed. Ron jumped up and kicked Wormtail in the shins and Hermione grabbed his wand. They shot a quick glance at Voldermort who was now rocking back and forth in a corner, whispering the odd thing to Micro-Vold. They ran out of the cell locking the door behind them.

Alesi brushed herself off and looked around her. Harry and her were in a very large field, and at the bottom was a massive lake. Looking straight in front of her however was the most enormous building she had ever seen In her life. It was beautiful. Harry got to his feet and smiled at her.
"Hogwarts!" He said proudly, and he took her hand and led her up towards the castle.
"This is so cool! God, if I had to leave here to come to View Point, I would have been a lot more miserable than you! You dealed really well!"
Yeah, this school is wicked!"
Alesi smiled suddenly, "God, View Point was a dump!" Harry and her went quickly up to Dumbledore's office but not before showing Alesi the enchanted ceiling in the Great Hall. Turning the corner, they collided into someone, causing Alesi to swear loudly. It was Snape,
" Potter! What the hell are you doing back here!" Snape shook his head and before Harry had a chance to reply he said, "Oh yes, I forgot. Well don't stand their gawking at me then, Potter go in and wait for him! He's not here yet so you'll have to wait a while."
He was about to walk on by when he saw Alesi standing behind Harry…
"Who the hell are you?" Snape was just about to shouting at Harry again when Alesi stepped in,
"You've a lovely school…!"
Snape rolled his eyes pushed passed Harry muttering, " A satisfied student! We should have her stuffed."
Alesi grinned at Harry, but Harry wasn't looking…he was looking out the window, squinting. Alesi turned around, and saw immediately what he was staring at - A dark shape hovering mistily over a large forest. The gloomy silhouette contrasted sharply with the bright forest - the sun was illuminating the green of the trees, making them shine an emerald green. Alesi spun round, and whispered, "The dark mark…" Harry was caught of his guard when Alesi grabbed his hand and ran down the hall, "Come on!" She yelled.
Harry knew, that was were Ron and Hermione were, as did Alesi, apparently. They sprinted down the wide stone steps and ran across the field, into the bright forest. Harry thought it odd, on the very occasion were the Dark Mark floats above the forest, it seems to look beautiful. They ran stealthily through the undergrowth, sunlight streaming down through gaps in the tree's canopy. Scattering the ground were bluebells. Despite the seriousness of the situation, Alesi laughed at the beautiful sight and yelled,
"We can do this, Harry!" And she ran on faster. Ten minutes and a lot of running later, they were both tired and slowed down to a brisk walking pace. Harry looking around him, realised that the forest was growing steadily darker as they progressed into its heart. They came to a clearing.
"God, Harry I'm tired…" Harry was about to grab her hand to drag her when she said,
"No, seriously Harry, you go on, I don't wanna keep." Harry's face looked resolved.
"Alesi, get off your arse and MOVE! We've got to go now AND I'm not leaving you!" Alesi heaved a great sigh and stumbled on after Harry.

"Shhhhhhh, be quiet, Ron!"
"Shhhhhhhhh!" Ron mimicked.
"Okay, Ron, I said to be quiet not drench me with dribble." Ron scowled,
"I've just about had enough of you Hermione!" She stuck her middle finger up at Ron and turned away haughtily. Ron looked abashed for a second but soon regained his obstinate air.
"Fine, if you're gonna be like that!"
"I think I just might!" Said Hermione with her back still turned.
"Hermione, your so - so…" Ron stuttered as he tried to find the right words.
"So what, Ron?" Hermione turned to face him, her eyebrows raised in feigned curiosity. As the sunlight streamed down, illuminating her eyes, Ron continued to stutter - but not for the same reason. Her dry hair seemed to glow and Ron, before he could stop it, blurted the first words that came to his mind.
" So beautiful…" Ron's ears went so red Hermione thought they were on fire and now it was Hermione's turn to stutter. This went on for quite a while, they of course forgot that they had passed the brink of a life-threatening situation and that they may still be tottering on the edge - but, you know, what's cheeseball love all about?
Their lips were just about to meet when they heard a voice, not far off. They broke away immediately and stood frozen. Their were two voices now, and they were growing louder.
"We must be here now, they can't be far off.."
Hermione and Ron turned to each other in shock.
"Harry???!" Yelled Hermione. The voices stopped for a second and someone yelled back,
"Hermione, Ron? Where are you?"
Hermione and Ron ran towards the voices and found themselves in the clearing that they had first seen Wormtail.
"Harry!!!" They yelled. They ran to each other hugging.
"Harry, we thought we'd never see you again!" Ron yelled. They made their way back to the castle whilst they told each other what had happened
They were so happy to be reunited again that they forgot the time and place and just talked.
And what happened to Alesi? Well, she was accepted into Hogwarts and became a Gryffindor and never heard went back to View Point again.
(A/n well duh! I was tempted to bung her in Slytherin and see what people would say!)
Voldermort was sent to St Mungo's with Micro-Vold but escaped when he cryogenically froze himself and Micro-Vold, but not before blasting himself into outer space.
This basically meant that Harry, Ron, Hermione and Alesi never had to face Voldermort again. Harry and Alesi started dating and so did Ron and Hermione. And they all Lived Happily Ever After.
I started out just like any summer,
Days were felt like a lifetime long.
That's when we found each other
And we found ourselves.
Now and Then, don't have to look back,
Now and Then, you're right here with me.
Now and Then, oh my friends,
Don't say Good-Bye again.
Don't say Good-Bye…Again
