The not so Leisurely Stroll through the Woods
by me



The troublesome troop continued to explore the forest until nearly midnight, meanwhile...

"WORMTAIL!!! Dumbledore has left the castle and the child has left the protection of the fortress, you are to go and kill him at once. I have what I need from him so there should be no mercy whatsoever! First thing you are to do is change him human again then make him watch his friends suffer and kill them one by one" Voldemort screamed, then added "...slowly" with a hint of pleasure in his snake like voice.

Wormtail cried softly "Yes master, I will make him suffer"

Voldemort continued "I want you to take enough of my servants to take down a small army, should anything go wrong. And it better not or the pain that the little Harry should feel will be doubled on you!"

"Yes master, I will take fifty of the best death eaters we have. That isn't too many is it master?" said the traitor with the fear of death looking him in the face.

The dark lord yelled at his servant "That will be more than enough to take twenty Harrys down, I want enough to take thirty Harrys down along with a dozen of his friends!" ending with a deep breath that made the hair on Wormtail's back stand up, as sharp as needles.

"Will seventy-five do master?" cried Wormtail, searching for the correct answer.

"If you think it will." Voldemort said angerly

"Yes master, I will do your bidding" said Wormtail

"Now stop talking and execute the weasel" Voldemort said with finality.

Wormtail ran from the room, as soon as he passed through the threshold of the door he cried out to all the best death eaters by touching an emblem on the wall and seconds later seventy- five black clad, wand-armed, Death eaters appeared in the hall in front of him. Wormtail informed them about his intentions and they all dissaprated with a single 'pop'

Harry sauntered through the forest as a tiger with a bear and a fox following him, the bear had an eagle on his shoulder. Harry, Neville, Ron and Hermione all heard a far off 'pop' and instantly recognized it. Thinking it was Dumbledore, Harry transformed back to a human and turned everyone else back, they all grabbed their wands out of their robes, just in case. Harry sensed that something wasn't right so he put a quick protection on Ron and Hermione, he figured that Neville would be able to protect himself.

Suddenly, out of the dark came a wall of curses. They knew who it was, Harry braced himself for the impact, it came as a deafening 'BOOM!' Harry and Neville protected Hermione and Ron with a shell of protection that couldn't be broken with any modern spell that anyone of the death eaters would know about.

The attack came swiftly as the first wave of Death Eaters attacked. Harry and Neville moved faster than any of the Dark Lords minions could have imagined. They fought with an ancient muggle style of fighting that they had adapted with wands. Harry ducked a fist and returned with an uppercut fist that was laced with a fire spell, it sent the Death Eater back with more than a broken rib, it had also sent him into a painful ball of fire. In a second, there were more than a dozen flaming black masses writhing over in pain.

Neville was doing damage of his own, knocking out opponents with a brush of his wand. Another spell he had learned from the studying he had been doing with Harry. The first group had been subdued, when he turned around and found that another group of Death Eaters had been trying to break through the dome of protection that was around Ron and Hermione. Harry sent a wave of power through the dome that sent the large group of death eaters to the ground, crying out in pain. Neville cast as spell and all the death eaters that were lying around were bound up and their wands all sat in a pile, creating a warm glow of different colors.

As soon as the flame started growing, the last force of the weakest Death Eaters attacked, Harry, tired of playing around, sent them fully conscious to the rest of the bound up Death Eaters, all of them disarmed, their wands added to the fire.

Harry looked through the group of them and found that Wormtail had been in the first group, he was fully conscious, meaning that he had probably only been gathered when Neville did the spell that bound them. Harry figured the best thing to do would be, take them back to the Castle and get Dumbledore back to Hogwarts immediatly.

An: Ok, so yell at me, I deserve it. I havent updated for sooooo long but it is mostly because I have been very busy, I got a job in December and got a girlfriend the beginning of February. I sing in a choir that went to a big choir convention in chicago this weekend, I have been preparing for that for forever. I will try to update every weekend from now on, but I cant promise, my boss tells me that i will get saturdays off from now on but it never happens. I hope this will be enough for now, and... thanks for the little insight about Voldemort/Voldemorte. I have been spelling that wrong for a long time and i never realized it. Thank you for all the reveiws, I try my best in my writing and I can have my moments of brilliance but don't compare me to JK, im nowhere even near that quality and style.

Till next time-
