CHAPTER TWENTY-FOUR
The Fall of The Good Side
Tonks burst through the giant doors in the Ministry lobby and sped off to her left where
Fudge's office door stood up. She entered quickly and found Percy inside, sitting at Fudge's desk.
"Percy! Where's Fudge?" Tonks shouted. Percy grinned.
"He's gone."
"What?"
"He's gone... or out cold should I say."
"What do you mean?"
Percy got up and pointed to the corner of Fudge's office, where Cornelius laid in a heap,
beneath his coat rack.
"Stunned him," Percy said calmly and advanced on Tonks.
"What the hell do you mean you stunned him?" Tonks questioned as she circled the room,
Percy following her.
"Your not exactly bright are you? Why the hell else would I stun the Minister of Magic at eight
o'clock at night... the same night that everyone, including Mr. Potter, would be congregated in one
place at Affotts..."
"No," Tonks said. "You can't be..."
"Yes, I can. Sorry. Your adventure ends here."
Tonks took her wand and aimed it at Percy. "Touch me and so help me God!"
Percy ignored this however and levitated Tonks, who flailed her arms and legs desperately.
"Have a nice night," Percy said broadly and sent Tonks flying through the window, shattering
ever last piece of glass. She fell with a thud, and slid across the slick marble floor, and into the wall.
Percy exited the room and walked over to the shattered glass, where he summoned Tonk's
wand to him.
Tonks rubbed her head, which was full of glass shards, and looked at Percy through blurred
vision.
"Goodbye Tonks," Percy said sweetly and aimed both wands at the helpless woman sprawled
on the floor. "AVADA–"
"Percy!?" a voice shouted. Percy turned to see that it was Fred and George, who had just
apparated. "What the hell?" Fred exclaimed.
"Get out you failures," Percy yelled at them.
"YOU did not just call us FAILURES!" George said furiously and took out his wand. "LOOK AT
YOURSELF! YOUR ALWAYS FUDGE'S LITTLE PUPPY!"
"I have a better master to look up to now," Percy said simply. "IMPEDIMENTA!"
Fred and George looked like they were hit with a huge claw, because they fell to the ground
without another word.
"Back to you," Percy said as he turned back to Tonks... but she was gone. "DAMMIT!" Percy
called out and threw her wand on the ground.
Harry, Hermione, Ron, and Ginny ran into the Great Hall. McGonagall noticed and yelled a spell
at them, which apparated them to the literally destroyed back room. Harry was outraged.
"Let me fight him!" Harry shouted uncontrollably as Professor Sprout tackled him and put a
hand over his mouth.
"It's for the best Harry! We cannot fight Voldemort, he's grown to strong!" Hermione said
anxiously.
"We have to!" Ron said desperately. "It's the only way... Dumbledore needs more people to
win!"
"Were only sixteen!" Ginny yelled.
Tonks rushed into the Great Hall and shouted a curse at a Death Eater who tried to attack
her.
"FUDGE IS KNOCKED OUT!" Tonks screamed. "SO ARE FRED AND GEORGE!"
Ron's face turned white and he climbed over students and debris to exit the room, ignoring
everyone's pleads.
"I have to find them!" Ron said. "They are my brothers!"
"They are mine too, but I'm not running! Don't be stupid!" Ginny declared.
Percy Weasley ran into the Great Hall, enraged. Voldemort noticed and stepped back from
Dumbledore.
"Stop!" Voldemort yelled and every Death Eater ceased their attacks. Percy wiped sweat off
his forehead and raised his wand. "This is my new supporter Albus. Percy Weasley. I bet you know
who he is?"
McGonagall gasped. "PERCY!"
"Shut-up you old bag," Percy said violently. "I did this because everyone was joining
Dumbledore to fight Voldemort. I did not support it... and then Fudge did. I was vulnerable. Lord
Voldemort found me and recruited me. I am the betrayer. I AM."
"I can't believe you," Ron's voice called out as he walked forward.
"Ah... your brother?" Lord Voldemort laughed.
"Yes..." Percy replied.
"You've deceived the family and all your friends!?"
"Kill him, Percy. Your first killing... kill him," Voldemort edged him on.
"He won't kill me," Ron said to Voldemort, not afraid. Percy gulped. Snape and McGonagall
watched the conversation, engrossed.
"Kill him," Voldemort demanded.
"Go ahead," Ron said, stepping closer to Ron.
"KILL HIM!" Voldemort screamed and put his wand next to Percy's head. "KILL HIM, DAMN
YOU!"
A tear ran down Percy's cheek. "What have I done?" he muttered sorrowfully.
Ron tried to come closer, but Dumbledore held him back.
"Tell mom and dad I'm sorry... tell Fred and George I didn't mean to do what I did. Ask Ginny
and Fudge for my forgiveness..." Percy began to say.
"If you don't kill him, I will–" Voldemort whispered, enraged, in his ear.
"I can't kill him... I can't kill my brother," Percy shot back.
Voldemort gaped at him. "Then I don't need you."
In a flash of light, Percy collapsed to the ground... to Ron's horrified screaming. A flash of
green light immersed itself.
"PERCY!" Ron screamed.
Again, a second flash of light went flying throughout the room.
Harry, Hermione, and Ginny all screamed when they saw what happened next.
Ron fell out of Dumbledore's grip and slid to the floor. His eyes were open. He stared into the
openness.
"Let this be a reminder to anyone who fights me... if you mess with me, you will perish!"
Voldemort yelled in disgust.
"Correction you stupid bastard! YOU will die," Harry Potter screamed angrily, tears flowing
from his eyes.
Hermione and Ginny ran after him.
"AVADA KEDAVRA!" Harry shouted. Voldemort deflected it and sent it flying at McGonagall who
screamed and ran into a Death Eater.
Soon enough, over ten different spells were flying at Voldemort's head. He was not able to
deflect every one of them... and only a few worked.
Harry ran right into Voldemort and began to punch him hard in the stomach. Voldemort
laughed and picked up Harry by the throat.
"I finally get to see you die," Voldemort said, tightening the grip on his hand. Lupin was bent
over Ron...
"There's a pulse–" Lupin said quietly as everyone proceeded to curse Voldemort to get Harry
down. The three remaining Death Eaters were trying to jinx Mad-Eye and Tonks which were trying to
hold back their anger about the two things that had just occurred.
Ron and Percy Weasley were dead.
Wooohooooooo...! OMG, I hate America sometimes! They are adapting Coupling for the US, and using
the same exact first season as the British version did.
"What do I have to do... beg, starve, show you a breast?"
"Yeah, sure."
