1 Chapter 4 ~ The Battle

As they made their way to where Voldemort was hiding, Harry had many questions in his head. Was he going to live through this? What was going to happen to Sirius and Remus? What is it going to be like after the battle? Then he reached the questions that bothered him the most. Would all the people that Voldemort killed come back to life? Would his parents be alive again? He didn't have much time to think about this though because Sirius put his hand out to stop him from walking any further.

"He's right up there," Sirius said looking at a hill. Harry followed Siruis' gaze and saw Voldemort. Harry tried not to show how scared he was, but obviously he hadn't because Remus asked,

"You sure you want to do this Harry? You don't have to."

"I'm ok. I'm going to do this."

"Ok, here's the plan," Sirius began, "Voldemort is practically immortal. The only way that we may kill him is if we all say the curse that kills together. We may have to repeat it, so be ready. Lets try to sneak up behind him. Be as quiet as possible. It'll be much easier if he doesn't see us."

With that being said, they began to make their way up the hill, being as quiet as possible. For what seemed like ages, they climbed the hill. Finally, they were just in reach of the top and were going to begin to pull themselves up.

"Did you actually think that I wouldn't notice three people climbing the hill that I am on?" hissed a voice that sent chills up Harry's spine. He looked up to see who the owner of the voice was, praying that it wasn't whom his gut knew it was. When he looked up, he saw the face of none other than Voldemort himself. Voldemort grabbed him by the hair, as well as Sirius and Remus, and pulled them up onto the top of the hill with him.

"Let us go!!!" screamed Remus.

"As you wish," replied Voldemort with a smirk on his face. He then dropped them and listened with delight as he heard the thuds from their bodies hitting the floor. When they stood up, he began to speak again.

"My, my, my. this picture looks oddly familiar. The only thing missing is a red head. If there was one here, I would be able to say that it was Remus, Sirius, James, and Lily again. You really do look like your father, Harry. You look exactly the same except for your eyes. Those are your mother's. You should've seen the fear in her eyes the night I killed your parents. Oh, it was so splendid. Then, to hear her beg me to spare you, that gave me even more delight. My one major regret about that night, besides not killing you, is that I killed them quickly. I should have tortured them. I should have let them feel pain. Well, what's done is done. I guess to make up for not torturing that night; I'll have to torture you even more than I would normally torture a person.

At this point, Sirius stepped in front of Harry to protect him. "Don't you dare touch a hair on his head even!"

"Oh, stop it! You're making this too much fun!" Voldemort then put the Cruciatus curse on Sirius. Sirius screamed from the pain. His scream was deafening. Both Remus and Harry rushed forward to try to help Sirius.

"Feeling left out, are we?" laughed Voldemort. "Don't worry, I'll let you join in, too!" Suddenly, Harry and Remus, too, felt the pain of the Cruciatus curse. Harry couldn't take the pain.

"STOP!!!!!!!" Harry screamed as loud as he possibly could. Surprisingly, Voldemort stopped, but only on Harry.

"Not enjoying our little game? Lets try something different." Using his wand, Voldemort then lifted up Harry and slammed him into a rock, repeatedly. Harry could taste the blood in his mouth and feel it flowing profusely from all of the cuts on his body.

Sirius could not take Harry getting hurt so much. He had promised Lily and James that he would protect Harry, and he wasn't going to let them down.

"Stop, please stop!" Sirius heard Harry cry.

"Help me! Someone, help me!" Harry cried just a few moments later.

Sirius had heard enough. Even though he was still under the Cruciatus curse, he knew he had to help Harry, who was still being slammed into the rock and had bleeding cuts and large bruises covering his whole body. With all his might, Sirius lunged at Voldemort. Voldemort, not expecting anyone to attack him since both Remus and Sirius were under the Crucio curse, fell when Sirius hit him. All spells were broken.

"Harry, get out of here," Sirius yelled, "NOW!!"

Harry struggled to his feet. He then heard Sirius scream, "Remus, the curse. now!"

"Avada Kedavra!" Harry heard them both yell. He turned to see if it had worked, but realized it hadn't. He knew he had to help.

"Remus, again!" This time, Harry joined them in yelling, "Avada Kedavra!"

The next few seconds went very slowly to Harry. He turned to watch Voldemort to see if the spell had worked, but instead watched in horror as Voldemort also shouted, "Avada Kedavra," with his wand pointed at Sirius.

Oh, God! Not Sirius! Harry though. Not realizing what he was doing, he took whatever strength he had left and jumped in front of Sirius.

"NO!!!!" Sirius screamed as the curses from Harry's and Voldemort's wand hit each other.
