Harry Potter no.5 part four
(A/N:
thanx for the reviews folks…sorry it's a bit late, cuz im kinda busy these
days, if u live in Singapore you should know that anyways enjoy…btw, im at the
part where McGonagoll leaves Harry and Ron in the great hall and they are
dumbstruck…very bad english, I know…)
Just
then, Hermione burst in. She spotted Harry and Ron standing as they had been
electrocuted and went up to them. "What the hell's wrong with you?!" she asked,
half-shouting. Slowly, Ron and Harry came out of their trances. "Wh-" asked
Ron. "What did you say Herm?" asked Harry. "I said, wait a sec, come here and
sit don first," Hermione said, leading them to the Gryffindor table.
Suddenly,
there was the loud booming voice of Voldemort echoing throughout the Great
Hall. "All students, all students, please make haste and proceed to your
houses, immediately!" Professor Dumbledore's voice boomed. At once, there was a
rush of whispering as everyone stood up. Ron looked worriedly at Harry and
Hermione. "What could have happened, what d'you think?" he asked. "I dunno…"
trailed off Harry, watching Cho, who was just exiting the hall. "Maybe
You-Know-Who's come back!" said Hermione loudly, causing many people to gasp
and glare at her. "Keep your voice down, Herm!" said Ron fiercely, he was one
of the wizards who were absolutely thought that Voldemort was horribly terribly
horrible. Harry looked at her thoughtfully. "Herm, you might have a point," he
said casually, portraying less scaredness than what he felt inside.
Soon,
everyone had reached their houses. All the Gryffindors were gathered in the
common room. Everyone was whispering to each other and it sounded as if several
birds had just flown in. Suddenly, they heard a distant cry, which sounded
suspiciously like Professor McGonagoll's voice. The next moment, a battered and
bloody Professor Dumbledore had apparated into the Gryffindor Common room. "All
of you, up to your dormitories, now! Miss Granger, Mr Potter, Mr Weasley, you'd
better stay here," Dumbledore shouted, as all the Gryffindors left the common
room.
"What's
going on Professor?" asked Hermione cautiously. "Voldemort has broken into the
school, Miss Granger. You three will have to help fight him off. He has come
alone," said Professor Dumbledore calmly, as if he was explaining a question to
Hermione. Ron let out a gasp. Ignoring this, Professor Dumbledore went on.
"Have you three got your wands? Good. I'll try to stall him, he's very powerful
now, if I tell you to flee from here, just go! Do you hear me, you three? Don't
try to be heroes and a heroine, understand?" He paused as all three of them
nodded. "Harry, summon your broomstick here. I have another one, Mr Weasley,
take it please," said Dumbledore hurridley. "Right Professor" said Ron. Harry
nodded in agreement and whipped out his wand. "Accio Firebolt!" he shouted. As
the firebolt entered through the window of the common room, the portrait door
burst open. Chunks of wall flew here and there. Harry, Ron and Hermione covered
their eyes because of the dust. As it cleared, they saw Voldemort.
Hermione
was looking as though she was petrified, while Ron looked nothing less than
shell-shocked. For Harry, this was nothing new. Voldemort looked worse than
last year; cold, malicious red slits for eyes, a pale white face that looked
like mist and a tall, slim frame. He looked at the sight before him (a bloody
dumbledore and three kids) and let out a long, evil, shrill laugh. "You think
you can defeat me? The greatest wizard of all time? Not a chance!" he said,
speaking in that same soft voice he used on Harry last year. Harry felt
Hermione shiver next to him. Then turning to Harry, Voldemort stared at him. "Harry
Potter…so we meet again, I am not going to make the same mistake this time, but
first I finish of this imbecile, Dumbledore!" Voldemort breathed, shouting the
last part out. He turned to face Dumbledore. Harry threw Dumbledore his wand
and shouted, "Use this!" Dumbledore gave him a quick nod and faced Voldemort
again. Voldemort was ready, he sent a curse on Dumbledore. Professor Dumbledore
blocked it nimbly. Then both of them shouted a curse at the same time. Again,
Harry experienced what had happened to him during the Triwizard Tournament in
his fourth year.
Both
Voldemort and Dumbledore were lifted into the air. Over the noise, Harry could
hear Voldemort shouting in fury, "NOT AGAIN!" Then he felt Hermione tugging on
his robes. "What!" he turned to her and shouted. "Look at Dumbledore!" she
mouthed pointing towards Professor Dumbledore. Harry turned around to look at
Dumbledore. (Ron was still frozen) Professor Dumbledore was shouting, "Harry!
Listen Carefully! I will break the connection soon and I will toss you your
wand. Take it and flee from Hogwarts with Miss Granger and Mr Weasley. Go and
hide in the Muggle World, do you understand?" "NO arguing!" he shouted again,
seeing Harry open his mouth indignantly. Hermione shook Ron hard and told him
what they had to do. When he heard this, Ron went the colour of a sheet of
paper, but he nodded mutely.
The
three looked at Dumbledore, bracing themselves to fly out on the broom. Ron clambered
on the Nimbus Two Thousand and One Professor Dumbledore had given him, while Harry
clambered upon his Fiebolt with Hermione clinging on to him from behind.
Suddenly, Professor Dumbledore screwed up his face and broke the connection. He
threw the wand to Harry. "Hurry!" he mouthed. Harry took this as his cue and
flew out the open window with Ron following closely behind. They flew a little
way off and stopped, hovering above the Forbidden Forest. They looked back at
Hogwarts. "What d'you think'll happen?" asked Ron weakly. He got his answer for
that soon. They heard Voldemort's roar of fury and a bang echoed from the
common room of Gryffindor. Evidently, Voldemort had killed Dumbledore and had
disapparated.
"Forget
I asked that," said Ron, staring at the castle with a mixture of hatred (for
Voldemort) and sadness as he saw Dumbledore being destroyed. Even Hermione was
dumbstruck. For a few moments, a tense silence hung in the air. Finally, Harry
broke the silence. "Well, guess we'd better land…" said Harry gruffly. "Yeah…"
said a subdued Ron. Both of them headed the broomsticks down towards the
ground. When they landed, all of them got off the brooms and sat down in a
nearby clearing. After some time, Hermione said, "I wonder if anyone else
escaped…" No sooner than when she had said that, there came a loud 'oomphing'
noise from behind a few trees. The three of them jumped up and made their way
cautiously towards the noise. Something was moving behind a bush. Hermione
bravely went forward and parted the bushes. She screamed. Ron and Harry hurried
towards her and looked at the figure. They gasped in surprise, as the person
was…
(A/N:
HAHA…I should say that is a better cliffhanger…nvm folks, part 5 coming up
soon. Make wild guesses, I don't mind, anyways its not that difficult to guess
who 'the person' is, r&r folks!)
