Chapter 24: within
Weeks went by since that day. They knew what happened. But they didn't know for certain if it was a dream, or reality, they didn't even mention it to one another after they went to bed that night. It was now close to the end of the school year and everyone was getting happy to get away from hogwarts. Since then, there hasn't been any attacks from the old gryffindor tower, but Harry was determined to try and go in, and find out what was going on for some reason, he couldn't understand. They were all getting ready for the O.W.L's and N.E.W.T's tests that are at the end of the year, and were cramming their minds with everything they learned. They were now in defense against dark arts class when the bell rang for the end of the class. All the students left, but the door shut before Harry, Ron, hermione, or Avalon were able to get out. "I still don't understand how you got out, but I have thoughts, on how it happened. Have any of you told anyone?" professor crimson asked. they all shook their heads.
"Wonderful. Now. if any of you do tell, then we're going to have some problems. Now I'll tell you a secret. the one that can go into the tavern of whispers is one of you. You just got to figure that out." Professor crimson explained. "Why are you telling us this?" Harry asked dumbfounded. "Because Harry. Don't take this personal, but I want you to die. and in that room, lay lord voldemort, who is waiting patiently for you, to rule over this world. But he needs the one who can go into the tavern, and I know you fellows, and ladies, you can't stand not to get into other people's business and go try and stop the evil, now can you? That's what I thought." Professor crimson explained slowly. They all listened to her intently. Of course, all she was saying was true. Every year that Harry was here, he always got into trouble at the end of the year for some odd reason, facing lord voldemort, never truly defeating him, but this time, he was going to. He was tired of hiding behind him. "I trust you'll find out how to get in there if you haven't already. Good luck, have fun, and see you in there soon. The portal opens tonight for the ones who aren't originally allowed to go in. but without the one, they'll be trap within the tavern, all in pain, for eternity. Be careful, and good luck trying to find away to stop It." crimson explained smiling. "Why are you telling us this again?" Ron asked. "The dark lord wishes me to. Now run along young ones, your next class awaits you. And I ensure you, tell anyone? And your most treasured one shall suffer severe pain." crimson said as the door by its self opened.
Harry walked out of the door, and the gang followed. "What do we do?" Ron asked. "Let's do it." Harry suggested. "What are you nuts? We'll be killed!" hermione explained. "It's a trap." Ron figured. "It may be, but it's time that I finish voldemort off for good." Harry explained. "Ok. Listen to me. Whether you guys want to go or not, that's up to you. but I'm going. It's my destiny. But it you do, tell me now. We know that one of us is the one, and I have a great feeling its you Avalon." Harry explained looking at Avalon. "You'd be surprised." Avalon muttered. "you in? I can't get in there without you." Harry explained. "You betcha, Harry!" Avalon replied giving thumbs up. "You?" Harry turned to Ron and hermione. Ron nodded, and hermione nodded after a moment. "Great. Tonight we go. At midnight, meet in the common room." Harry explained. "We're dead." Ron groaned. They all started walking down the hallway. "Hey potter, what is you and your fan club up to?" malfoy's voice asked as they made their way down the spiral staircase. "We are going into the tavern tonight malfoy." Harry explained. but then suddenly, Harry looked over at Avalon. "Tell anyone and your most treasured one shall feel severe pain. What have I done?" Harry asked silently. "don't worry Harry. I'm fine. Lets just go." Avalon explained. "You can't get into the tavern. No one can. Now what are you doing?" malfoy asked. "Why do you care?" Ron asked. Malfoy said nothing. He sneered and stormed off.
They made their way down to the great hall for dinner. "Oy! Harry! How's it shaken?" Fred asked as he and George walked by Harry. "I'm fine." Harry replied. "And the lovely Avalon?" George asked. "I'm great!" Avalon said smiling. "Did you hear about the tavern? A kid's been killed. the people at the ministry are thinking of now officially closing down the school if the tavern isn't closed my tomorrow. Maybe you can stay with us." Fred suggested. "Well, food time!" Fred said walking away. After dinner, they made their way to their common rooms and went to bed early. At midnight, they all met in the common room and made their way to the old common room to go in. they had to use the invisibility cloak cause now, there were teachers guarding the entrance. Hermione easily took them out with a sleeping charm. "Ok. Avalon? you ok?" Harry asked. "I'm fine. let's do it!" Avalon explained. she went into the door first, and Harry, Ron, and hermione followed. "Hagrid!" Harry blurted seeing hagrid in a large metal cage. "Harry? What are yeh doin in here?" hagrid asked weakly. "We've come to save you!" Avalon explained running to the cage. The atmosphere was an old dungeon, with serpent columns, and cobwebs everywhere. Faint light showed in the room a dark blue.
"It's a trap." Hagrid blurted as Avalon tried to unlock the cage. "Welcome Harry potter." A voice rang. Harry's head began to hurt terribly. "Harry! Are you ok?" hermione asked. Harry nodded. "I'm glad you decided to come. Now. feel the wrath of lord voldemort!" professor crimson appeared with black wings, and blood dripping down her mouth. Her black demon tail that just appeared swayed from left to right slowly and eagerly. Voldemort suddenly appeared and grabbed Avalon. "Avalon!" everyone shouted. "now, her blood shall make me immortal!" voldemort explained. Suddenly, Avalon hissed and bot voldemort in the arm and was thrown to the ground. "Or the other way." Avalon whispered smiling. She spit bits of blood to the ground and voldemort looked at his arm. "that was the most disgusting thing I've ever done." Avalon explained still spitting. "Are you ok? Ron asked. Avalon nodded. Voldemort raised his wand and pointed it at hermione, who gasped. She grabbed her wand as well and held it up. "Don't be so gullible girl, you really think you have a chance?" voldemort hissed. Suddenly, Harry felt within his pocket something and took it out. It was his flashlight thing he got from his birthday! He flicked it on, and showed hermione on the other side of the room. He then it show more pictures of him, Ron, and Avalon, as well as hermione all around voldemort. The light showed the whole room and saw everything. Dead bodies from long ago trapped on the walls as corpses. The hermiones' screamed and voldemort got confused on who was the real one. so he pointed to a fake with his wand. "Avada-kedavra!" and the spell went right through the hermione. "imperio!" the hermiones' shouted and created the imperious spell and shot it at voldemort. But voldemort was too strong, and broke through it. "I'm going to never forget this moment, when I finally kill you Harry potter." Voldemort grinned. "That's your problem. Waiting." Harry muttered holding up his wand. Harry sat the flash light down. "Find the right me." Harry explained. Voldemort looked around. He did a spell to every Harry till he was the only one left. Voldemort grinned as he started on Harry. "today, you die." Voldemort explained. "Avada kedavra!" voldemort shouted. Avalon screamed, hermione screamed, and Ron yelled along with hagrid. Everything went in slow motion, and his whole life flashed from him living with the dursleys to finding out he was a wizard to riding on a broom stick and meeting hermione and Ron and hanging out, to him finding out who is mum and dad looked like to winning the house cup. It even showed him finding out Sirius was his god-father, to him winning the triwizard tournament, to meeting Avalon, and liking her. everything he loved and cherished, was now being crushed.
When Harry suddenly thought he was dead, something happened.
