The next morning Harry and Hermoine had entered the Great Hall holding hands and smiling. This wasn't odd to anyone in the hall as they did this every morning. While they were eating Ron had noticed that they were acting oddly. They kept stealing small glances and smiles at each other. Ron wondered about this for a moment, then decided they were just in love, and forgot all about it.

After breakfast Harry, Hermoine, Ron, Michelle, James, Malfoy, and Caty had all decided to go to Hogsmeade, because it was a Saturday and no studying was to be done.

After getting dressed they met in the Gryffindor common room.

As they turned to leave, Harry looked at Hermoine and said in a whisper, "Remind me to get some relanda root, OK?"

Hermoine looked confused, "What do you need that for?"

Harry just looked at her with a questioning look on his eyes and a small smile on his lips.

Hermoine realized it instantly, she blushed, "O..Okay." She said with a smile.

He winked at her and they continued on, following their friends to Hogsmeade.

************

Dumbledore had decided that stroll down to Hagrid's hut was in order. He hadn't seen his old friend in a while, and he liked to talk with him from time to time.

As he exited the school and began the walk to Hagrid's hut, he noticed a figure moving in the woods.

Dumbledore turned his path toward the figure, and suprisingly, the figure began walking straight toward him.

The figure came out of the woods, and Dumbledore felt a pulse of anger flow through him unlike any he had felt for a long while.

"Hello Albus." Voldemort said.

"What are you doing here Voldemort?" Dumbledore said, power radiating off his being.

"I just came to see what had become of the famous Hogwarts. I was most upset to find that you caputred my servant." Voldemort said.

Dumebldore just stared.

"I don't see any students running around, I wonder where they all went to? Did they perhaps get sent home? I wonder how that happened." Voldemort said with a small bit of sarcasm.

Dumbledore replied, "I'm sure you had a hand in that some how."

"Whatever do you mean Albus?" Voldemort said.

"Leave. Now." Dumbledore said

"What if I wouldn't like to leave?" Voldemort said.

Faster than the eye could see, Dumbledore had drawn his wand.

***********

The large group of friends had found a table at the Leaky Cauldron and James and Ron had went to retrieve drinks. While they were standing at the bar waiting, Ron took a look back to find Harry and Hermoine staring into each others eyes, oblivious to all those around them.

"They do that a lot, don't they?" Ron asked James, indicating Harry and Hermoine.

"Yeah I guess, I mean they are really close, especially after last night." James replied with a smile.

"What happened last night?" Ron asked, curious.

James smiled, "Well let's just say, they became closer in their love."

Ron's eyes widened and he said in a whisper, "Are you serious?"

"Yep." James said reaching out to retrive the drinks that the bartender had set down for them.

Ron stood for a moment with his mouth hanging open.

"Close your mouth, you look like an idiot. Come on, let's take the drinks back over there, and don't say nuttin about it neither, cause I don't think we're supposed to know." James told Ron, handing him three of the drinks.

************

Voldemort smile at Dumbledore, "Are you sure you want this Albus?"

"I belive so. Tom." Dumbledore said.

Voldemort's body seemed to flood with anger once Dumbledore had said his mortal name, "DO NOT CALL ME BY THAT MUGGLE NAME. I AM NO MERE MUGGLE, I AM THE MOST POWERFUL WIZARD IN HISTORY!"

Dumbledore simply laughed, "You may thing you are Tom, but deep deep down, we both know your not."

Voldemort drew his wand.

"I guess we shall soon see Albus."

"So we shall." Dumbledore said.

Each screamed a curse then, in a language so old it was dead in another world before this one had speaking creatures.

"ARUGGAMENTIAS"
"TE IMPLORE DUAMNE"

The two curses hit in mid air and sent a rainbow of magic hundreds of feet into the air.

********

Harry suddenly jumped from the table, spilling his butterbeer, and clutching his scar.

"What's wrong Harry?" Hermoine said instantly worried.

"Somethings, going on. We have to go, now!" Harry yelled.

The group quickly left the table, running from the Leaky Cauldron.

Once outside they all made their way into an empty alley.

"Caty, when we transform, grab onto Hermoine's back and she will fly you. Don't worry it's safe."
Harry said quickly.

"Wha..."Cary had begun, but was cut off was the group changed into their anigmus forms.

"What the fuck?" Cary said. She was suddenly surrounded by a white eagle, a large lion with wings, a long three headed snake, a silver wolf, a small red rhinocerous, and a white unicorn.

The eagle next to her nipped her leg. It was three feet wide and four foot long, Cary was sure that it was Hermoine, and that Hermoine was large enough to hold Caty.

She climed aboard, just in time to see the wolf, and the snake crawl onto the back of the huge lion. The lion stood onto it's back legs and grabbed the white unicorn and the red rhinocerous with it's oversized claws and flew into the air.

Second later Caty was flying through the air next the the Lion.

She had never been more thrilled in her life.

**********

The battle had been waging for a time now, and Dumbledore was feeling the effects of his age. At one time in his life, he could have dueled all night and day, but now he was feeling all of hisyears as he battled with Voldemort.

It was obvious Voldemort was winning, he wasn't exerting himself anymore, and he seemed a little too confident.

As the battle waged Dumbledore was hit with more and more curses, until he was too weak to defend himself properly, once Voldemort knew this, he started walking circles around Dumbledore, stalking him.

"I didn't know you would be this weak Dumbledore, I would have expected more from you. Allthough I must allow for your age. You did fight well to be as old as you are. I salute your efforts."
Voldemort said.

Dumbledore then said through wheezing breaths, "Your day will come Voldemort, you will fall under another wizard's wrath, and you will know what it is like to die."

Dumbledore had always known that he would fear the time when he couldn't defend himself against the killing curse, and he knew that right now was it. If the killing curse was cast, he was dead, and there was nothing he could do about it.

"Maybe, but I doubt it." Voldemort said with sneer.

He then raised his wand.

**********

Harry and company had flown quickly and swiftly. As they approached Hogwarts, they noticed two figures on the ground. One was laying on their side and the other was standing over the other.
Harry began his descent and once he was close enough to the ground he saw the worst sight he had ever seen.

Voldemort was standing over Dumbledore. Dumbledore looked worse than one could imagine, blood ran from his body, his eyes were drooping and bruised. His hair, mangled.

Voldemort had his wand raised.

Harry had gotten close enough to the ground to drop Ron and Michelle, and let Malfoy and James jump off his back, he then turned his wings and flew directly at Voldemort.

Voldemort didn't pay Harry any attention, seconds before Harry could reach him, he pointed his wand at Dumbledore and said, "Avada Kedavra."

Dumbledore's face contorted with pain and then, nothing. His body lay lifeless, eyes were open and unseeing.

Dumbledore, one of the great wizards of all time, was dead.

Voldemort turned to Harry and threw up the most advanced shielding charm he knew.

Harry sailed straight through it.

He tacked Voldemort to the ground, changing into his human form as he did.

The two rose and Harry drew his wand.

Voldemort smiled and said to Harry, "Not today Potter, but soon."

He changed into a large dragon and flew off.

Harry screamed curses at him, but they did nothing.

Harry turned to the fallen body of Dumbledore. He walked to it, as his friends gathered around.

Harry Potter then looked down at Dumbledore's face and said quietly, "God Help Us All."
