When he reappeared, he was in a clearing surround by trees on one side, and the edge of a cliff looking out over a sea or an ocean of some sort, on the other side. He looked around; everyone else seemed to be here already. In the centre of the circle was a small and weary looking person. The continued to look around at every-one surrounding him, Harry had no idea who he was until he noticed something shining in his sleeve. Harry's first thought was that it was a sword or a knife of some sort, but then quickly realized who was in the centre of the circle, with a silver arm. Peter Pettigrew.
"Wormtail" came a strangely high pitched voice from just out the circle. The owner of the voice, who couldn't be anyone other than the Dark Lord, walked into the centre of the circle towards Wormtail. It was still relatively dark here; where-ever they were, so the faces of the Death Eaters were not easily distinguishable. "Do you have it? The poor-excuse-for-a-pure-blood Weasley girl?" he hissed.
"Y-Yes, Lord." Wormtail whimpered as Voldemort came closer.
"Good, where is she?" he hissed in snake a like voice.
He walked out of the circle and re-appeared with a weak and tear stained Ginny. It took all of Harry's self control not to rush into the circle and take her in his arms. Even if he did or could it would just put her in more danger. Voldemort would definitely find out how he felt about her. All he had to do was think about what he had done to his first crush, he didn't want to imagine what he would do to his first love…love, that was how he felt about her, it seemed so simple now that he thought about it, but it would have to wait. 'I Love Ginny' he thought to himself.
A high cold laugh brought him out of his reverie, as Voldemort laughed. "Well, Wormtail you have succeeded again, you shall be rewarded." He raised his wand to Wormtail and muttered something that Harry didn't catch, as soon as the words left Voldemorts mouth, Wormtail began screaming in pain and rolling around the floor. After a few seconds he stood up and walked towards Voldemort before kneeling down and kissing the hem of his robes and re-joining the circle of Death Eaters. "Yet still there is no word or sign from the famous Potter. He is a mere coward, but a powerful one, if he were to join me, we could take down the pitiful fool Dumbledore and rule the world." Harry tensed in anger as he insulted Dumbledore. As if reading his thoughts Harry an invisible had on his shoulder that must have Dumbldores, which calmed him down.
Voldemort began to walk around to all of his Death Eaters and greet them in turn, and check their loyalty. When he reached what a Death Eater two feet away from Harry he spoke to him.
"Lucius, your noble family hates Weasleys even more than I do correct?" Malfoy nodded "Then you have the pleasure." He gestured towards Ginny in the middle of the circle. Malfoy grinned and took out his wand, Voldemort stepped out of the way to allow a clearer view, Malfoy pointed his wand at her and began to say the Cruciatus Curse. At this point Harry's temper got the better of him. He balled his hands into fists and looked at Malfoys wand, at that moment the wand burst into flames and the curse beck fired cause Lucius to scream in pain. The Death Eaters had become restless and Harry glanced a look at his watch. It was nearly eight o'clock the polyjuice would begin wearing off soon. When Malfoy stopped screaming the Death Eaters began to get in the circle again waiting for an order or instructions on what to do from their master.
"Some-one is here, keep your eyes open and kill anyone who is working for that old fool." He continued around the Death Eater circle and eventually reached Harry, who still looked like Snape.
"Snape, glad you could join us." He smirked "The old fool not giving you much trouble I see, you look rather happy about something. I am going to have to fix that." He hissed and raised his wand at Harry. 'Crucio!' Harry closed his eyes determined not to scream and focused on the pain controlling technique that he had learned fin the library. He thought of his happy memories, times with Ginny and his other best friends. The pain wasn't there anymore, he opened his eyes to see a very confused looking Voldemort but no less evil. "Do you not feel the pain?" he spat.
"No" Harry answered in Snapes voice the best he could. "I could not"
The Dark Lord turned and pointed his wand at Ginny and cried 'Avada…' Harry didn't let him finish, he pulled out his own wand and pointed it at Voldemort.
"Incedio!" he cried. Voldemorts robes caught on fire and he stopped his incantation. Many Death Eaters pulled out their wands and pointed them at Harry. Harry pulled back his hood to reveal his face, and Voldemort sneered.
"Potter!" Harry looked up and caught evil itself looking at him with disgust. Harry glared at the thing, not even fit to be called human anymore, with hate, fear, and courage flowing in his veins. Macnair lifted his wand and pointed his wand at Harry, when a voice appeared from nowhere.
"That will not be necessary." It was Dumbledore. He had taken off the illusion charm that he had used and stunned Macnair. He fell to the ground with a thump. Right then there was pops coming around everywhere as a battle ensued. Harry turned to Voldemort and drew his wand.
"Voldemort!! This is the end!!!" He spat as Voldemort turned his wand on Harry. "One of us is going to be defeated. Now."
Harry and Voldemort faced each other with their wands drawn, not taking their eyes off of the other. They stood ten feet apart, wands trained on each other, circling. After a few seconds Voldemort was the first to react, he flicked his wand and shouted 'Crucio'. Harry used his seeker reflexes to dodge the spell.
"Here we are, duelling. Again. Except this time there is no port-key to help you escape, and your precious Headmaster is rather occupied. Not that he cares anyway." Voldemort smirked and watched Harry's reaction.
"Liar! Of course he cares. Why wouldn't he?" Harry knew that Voldemort was lying and that he was just trying to make him let his guard down, so Harry was going to keep it up and try and turn it around.
"Well what has he actually done for you? He didn't come and save your parents when I went to kill them. He sent that idiot half-giant to get you afterwards. Then he gave you to those Muggles, who don't care for you at all. He let you face me when you were eleven, then again when you were twelve, just to save that." He pointed at Ginny. "He did nothing to stop you facing me when you were fourteen after the Triwizard Tournament, where you helped get my body back, and he let you fall into my trap last year." He let out a laugh. "And you still respect the old fool." He sneered.
Harry gave this a thought. He was right in some ways, but surely there were explanations for what Dumbledore did. Or was there?
"SHUT UP!!"
"Harry, Harry, Harry… Learn from your mistakes and join me. Together we will have no trouble taking over the world. We could rule together!" They both lowered their wands slightly. Harry thought about what had just been suggested, but something was nagging him in the back of his mind that he should do what was right and not what was easiest. He continued to think his eyes never leaving Voldemort. 'He killed my parents, he tried to kill me, he tortures and kills innocents, he's evil.
"You lying bastard!" he spat "What makes you think that I would join the ranks of evil with the…THING…that killed my parents." He raised his wand and in a flash shouted 'CRUCIO!' Voldemort, not ready for this got hit full blast and screamed in agony, but slowly stood up, and aimed his wand at Harry 'Avada Kedavra'. Harry using his seeker reflexes dodged the spell and looked to see where the jet of light went. He heard a scream of pain and turned to see Remus Lupin on the floor. Remus however stood up shakily and continued to fight. 'Thank God he's a Werewolf' thought Harry.
Harry cast as strong a shield charm on himself as possible, whilst turning back to face Voldemort.
They shot a few curses and hexes at each other neither one hitting the other. Until a thought hit Harry, he thought about something that Dumbledore had said at the end of his fifth year. He closed his eyes and concentrated on everything and everyone he loved picturing them in his mind alive, safe, well, and happy. These thoughts seemed to give him power. He seemed to be floating. He could see himself below he was facing Voldemort his eyes open and his wand raised. Everything seemed to slow down. He Voldemorts mouth moving slowly, and a jet of green light shot out of his wand, it moved slowly towards Harry. He realized what was happening, but not soon enough the curse hit him in the chest. His body fell to the floor sending a blast of blindingly bright white light towards Voldemort. The Dark Lords body fell to the ground and they both disappeared.
