Chapter 2- Sacrifice
As soon as Harry and Hermione were on the ground a series of Darts passed overhead making the opposing wall disappear. "Close huh?" Harry said. Hermione nodded in frightened reply. Harry help Hermione up and they brushed their clothes off. Draco wiped his brow. "I'm glad your okay Mic.er- You too Granger. but what happened to the others?" Draco questioned. Hermione choked. " Neville, Percy, and Penolope were killed by." Hermione paused and swallowed. "Lord Voldemort" Ron stared at her in disbelief. " Percy can't be dead...what do you mean?" Ron stammered. Hermione gave him a soft hug "I'm sorry Ron.."She sobbed. Colin banged on the bars of his cell. "LET ME OUT" He yelled. Dean was sitting in his cell with Ginny's cell next to his. Harry pulled out a pin and picked each of the locks. "Evidently, Voldemort has no grasp of muggle tricks eh." Harry said picking Ginny's lock. When the three were safely out of their imprisonment, they turned to the door. The door was gone. Dean shook his head. "isn't there supposed to be a door there?" he asked to no one in particular. Hermione was grasping herself for warmth. Harry pulled off his robe. "Your cold, here." He said draping it around her shoulders. "Thank you" She replied. She glanced over Harry's shoulder. She jumped in alarm "HARRY! LOOK OUT!!!!" She cried. From behind him Voldemort had appeared. He pressed a dagger blade to Harry's neck. He created a small slit in his neck, which sent a drop of blood onto his shirt. " I have you now don't I Harry?" Voldemort cackled. He drew his wand from his cloak. "Now I will accomplish what I have longed to do for 16 years Potter..I will dispose of you" Harry struggled in Voldemort's grasp to no avail. Hermione watched helplessly with tears falling down her cheeks. "L-leave him alone!" She yelled. Voldemort spun around. "What do you want you silly little girl? A lollipop?" Voldemort said grinning evilly in spite of his small humor. Hermione growled venomously. "Leave him alone I said " She said brandishing her wand. Voldemort backed away in sarcasm. "Duel? You and me? HA!!" Voldemort chuckled. "You have no chance you muggle born freak.After I kill you, I will kill Potter and the others..Then your Parents..." Hermione's veins surged with anger and hatred. " Crucio!" She yelled. A bolt of light hit Voldemort causing him to wince. She spine curled but he soon fought off the curse and stood erect. "Do you actually believe you can defeat me?" Then he laughed coldly and demonically. "Hermione don't, please.I don't want you to die.go" Harry mouthed. Hermione being as headstrong as she is ignored Harry's plea and raised her wand. Draco contemplated from a distance. "Should I help him...or should I sit here..and wait.." He thought to himself. Michelle looked up to him as if she could read his mind. "Draco.Harry's in trouble.."She said quietly. "I know..but I don't know what to do.." Draco said sighing heavily. Hermione had been hit by the Imperius curse. Voldemort's cold voice rang through her head Just give up and I'll make your death fast..said Voldemort's disembodied voice. No thank you.Thought Hermione. The voice returned. Yes.you will give up... Hermione answered No..I won't.. I won't let you hurt my friends... Voldemort's voice laughed. Say it... Hermione struggled. NO!!!! Say it... NEVER!!!! Then she broke free of the curse. Voldemort's dagger gad dropped to the floor. Harry slowly took out his wand. "Avandra Kendrava!!!!" Harry yelled. Voldemort swept it away with a flick of his wrist." You will have to try harder than that boy." He cackled. Suddenly from the shadows a dark figure emerged and laughed quietly to himself. It was none other than Severus Snape. "Snape! What are you doing here?" Voldemort said turning to Snape in surprise. Snape folded his arms across is chest. "Everyone needs to be somewhere don't they Voldemort. Ron watched from a distance with Ginny at his side and Dean and Colin to his right, Draco and Michelle at his left. They watched tensely as Voldemort turned his hand upward and a small object, which looked like a miniature car motor. It all must have made sense to Snape because he took a stride backward. "I am no longer you faithful death eater Voldemort.." Snape seized his sleeve and lifted it past his shoulder. A skull with a serpent tongue was on hiss arm as if a tattoo. "It was you..You who gave with this ugly mark. Now I have to keep my sleeve down in shame, as I know I had once served. The mighty Lord Voldemort. Now I am scarred with this mark forever, I came for payback Riddle." Snape said tensely, his eyes burning with fiery rage. "Do not call me that" Voldemort said calmly. "As I had assigned you the task of disposing Potter, I see you have failed." Voldemort said changing the subject. "I would not kill Potter on you orders Voldemort." Snape said nodding nonchalantly in Harry's direction. Hermione coughed dryly . "Please be quiet Miss Granger" Snape said as if they were still at Hogwarts. Hermione shut up instantly. Snape pulled his wand from his cloak and raised it in the air at Voldemort. "You dare to fight me Severus?" Voldemort said icily. "Yes, You DO know how to duel don't you?" Snape said laughing in spite of himself. Voldemort scowled a bit "Of course Severus" Hermione grasped onto Harry's sleeve tightly. "You think he's actually going to do it??" She asked quietly in a squeaky whisper. "Y-Yeah, but I don't think he's gonna win.." Harry replied looking into Snape's dark beady eyes. He saw he was breaking out in a nervous sweat "CRUCIO" The fight had begun.. TBC
