A/N: Ok now people! I would appreciate a bit more reviewing! Well, I hope
you liked the last chapter. I spent HOURS trying to think up things, coz
the bits I've been dying to write for ages now go in this chapter, (I
think). Well, here goes nothing.
Disclaimer: see chapter 1
~*~*~*~ Chapter 30: Lifeless ~*~*~*~
There was a flash of green light heading straight for a stunned Harry when suddenly an orange flash of light burst in front of him. Fawkes had appeared and swallowed the curse, bursting into flame. Harry shook himself back to reality. He would need to concentrate more, in case Fawkes wasn't fast enough again.
ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE ROOM.
Draco slapped himself on the head. "It was you wasn't it? In the house when we were training. YOU were the other Harry! Why did you come there?" Draco asked him anger boiling inside.
"Ah, indeed I was. And I fooled you all. I would have had Weasley in a second if you hadn't come bursting in. you always hated the Weasel, and yet it was you who foiled me finally killing him. I didn't even know until then what you had been up to. What foul pieces of dirt you were hanging around with. The worst of course is the mudblood, but my associate will get rid of her soon."
"She is not a mudblood. She is higher than you, or I will ever be," Draco said through clenched teeth.
"Aren't you going to ever ask me why I didn't kill you when I had the opportunity many times?" his father drawled.
"You didn't have any opportunities except for in that house."
"Ah, but Draco. I did. I've been residing in the castle for about three months. I have seen you playing quidditch, and I must say I am still disappointed," he sneered.
"No you weren't. Harry would have saw you on the map," Draco spat out.
"Harry possess a power that even the dark lord himself does not possess, but he too has the darkest powers that no one would even dream of using. Only someone with nothing to lose and everything to gain would use them." (AN: I so took that out of the book, I know)
"I hate you." Draco said quietly.
"The feeling is mutual," Lucius snarled.
Suddenly a scream tore through the air. Draco whipped his head around to see who it was. Hermione was lying on the floor writhing and twisting in pain. He saw Harry start to turn his head too.
"Don't Harry! I'll take care of it! just look after yourself!" Draco yelled to him.
Draco pointed his wand at Ernie who was wearing a triumphant smile.
"I don't think so. Petrificus Totalus!" Lucius yelled. Draco fell to the floor before he could take the curse of Hermione. He heard her stop screaming. Ernie must have taken the curse off.
"Now I would greatly enjoy seeing you die on the ground below me, but I still have morals to stick too, even if you don't. You will fight me man to man. May the best man win," Lucius said. He lifted the spell and Draco jumped to his feet.
WITH HILARY.
"Wake up! C'mon! You need to get out of here." Her twin was getting paler and paler by the second. Hilary was silently thanking her lucky stars over and over again that no one had seen her yet.
"C'mon" she muttered attempting to drag her to the wall. She decided to run there and get some help. Hilary got up and sprinted to the wall. She put her hand out and ran. Her wrist bent backwards and broke. The wall was solid again.
"Ah!" She cried out quietly and then ran her hands all over the wall which had managed to seal itself up. They were trapped in here. She didn't want to apparate in case her twin got hurt. She quietly made her back to the thin girl. When she got there she wrapped her arms around her in an attempt to warm her up. She looked up to see everyone else. Harry was standing there looking very alert talking venomously to Voldemort. She looked and saw Hermione twisting on the ground. She caught her breath and was about to say a spell to help her when she realised they would find out she was here if she did so. She looked around to Draco and saw him looking daggers at some man with dirty (literally) white blonde hair. If she didn't know Draco's dad was dead, she could have sworn it was him.
WITH HARRY
"Untenctus Erthereal!" Harry shouted.
"Wandesco!" Voldemort yelled. The spell that was shooting for him froze in midair and burst. Harry suddenly yelled., his wand was incredibly hot. He could feel it start to melt his skin and sink in.
"Icito!" Harry murmured and his wand returned to the normal temperature.
"You don't give up easy do you?" Voldemort smirked at him.
"Netonisc!" Harry yelled. A white hue hung around Voldemort. He tried to move but couldn't.
"Disapio!" Harry cried. He had placed an anti disapperating charm on him. Harry had him.
Suddenly Voldemort disappeared.
"WHAT!" Harry yelled. He couldn't disapperate still could he?
"Confused Harry?" a high pitched cold voice asked behind him.
Harry pointed his wand quickly behind him and yelled "Stupefy!"
Voldemort froze for a second and then cackled.
"Little kid spells. Aren't you a bit too old for those now?"
Suddenly a white light, so bright that Harry had to shut his eyes so only a fraction was open to see what was going on. It stopped in front of him and dimmed.
Harry opened his eyes and felt a small rock in his eyes. There was another flash of bright light and Harry looked down to see what it was. There was a rough pure white stone in his hand. It was flecked with bits of dirt, so it was obviously very old.
"What good is a little rock going to do Potter?" Voldemort sneered.
Harry knew instinctively what to do. He raced forward and placed his fist with the small stone in it directly upon Voldemort chest right where his heart should be.
Voldemort screamed and shrieked. Harry stayed there even though he felt as if he was about to collapse any second.
WITH ERNIE AND HERMIONE.
"Why did you do it Ernie?" Hermione asked. She no longer felt sorry for him. He had told her about all the deaths he had caused and witnessed and laughed about it. then after being put under the Cruciatus curse, Hermione got up and faced him shakily on her feet.
"Hermione. You will never understand. Crucio!" he yelled and laughed at her screams.
Draco turned around again to save her, but suddenly a different set of screams could be heard from Harry's corner. All of a sudden an incredibly bright gold light shone around the room. Draco couldn't see where Hermione was so he could stop this. After about 15 minutes of blindness, the room came back into focus. They were all still a bit dazed and Hermione was shaking on the ground. She had no energy to scream anymore. Lucius looked dazedly around.
"Avada Kedavra!" he shouted in an attempt to kill Draco. He was mistaken by the figure. Ernie fell in a heap to the ground. Hermione lifted her head and smiled a feeble smile at Draco before slumping back.
Hilary was in the corner. She was holding her twin tightly. The gold light was coming from her, and Hilary knew what to do. She flung the chain around their necks and squeezed her eyes shut. After a while the light disappeared and an unconscious sister lay in her arms, no longer blue, but a pale pink. She was saved. Hilary smiled shortly and then fell exhausted next to her.
Draco got up to his feet. Lucius saw him. Hermione looked over at Draco. "I love you," she mumbled.
"I love you Hermione. And we're going to make it through this," He said. Neither one of them saw the anger and hatred in his eyes.
"I brought you up to despise mudbloods! You don't deserve to live! Avada Kedavra!" he yelled.
The flash of green light sped towards Draco.
Harry was lying on the floor, unconscious deprived completely of energy. He was hanging onto his life by a string. Hilary and her twin were slumped in a corner, a trickle of blood was flowing from Hilary's head. Hermione was so weak she could only manage to open her eyes to wide saucers, as she saw Draco as if in slow motion get hit by the curse and hit the ground.
"NO!!" Hermione screamed. She dissolved in a fit of tears.
"Now it's your turn mudblood. My son didn't love you. He was confounded," he said sneering at her.
She slowly got to her feet even though they weren't going to support her for long. She walked over to Draco and stood in front of him.
"You are the worst thing I have ever seen! Even worse than Voldemort. Even he didn't sink so low as to kill his own daughter, even though he had the chance. I hate you! You are lower than the core in this earth. You make me sick!" Hermione spat at him.
"Yes, I do have that effect on quite a few people don't I?" he chuckled.
"Now, do you want this done the filthy mudblood way, or would you like to die as my son did? I don't think I should even give you that much satisfaction, but as I said, I have my morals. So, which one is it?" Lucius smirked.
Hermione looked Lucius straight in the eye.
"Neither. Avada Kedavra!" she yelled. A feeble flash of green light came out of her wand. She felt so much hatred towards him. It was using all her strength to hold onto the wand and thin stream of green light. Her curse wasn't powerful enough. She stood there for another two minutes. Then Lucius slumped to the ground, finally defeated.
"Ha," Hermione said before her eyes rolled back and she fell to the ground on top of the lifeless Draco.
"I love you," she whispered and closed her eyes for the last time.
~*~*~*~ THE END ~*~*~*~
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
A/N: AHHHHHHHH! I can't believe it's over! Well, I really hope you liked the story, and I know the end was really abrupt. In case you're wondering, Voldemort is dead. Don't ask me how, coz I don't know. Look out for my next fic that I'll be posting in about 4-5 weeks. If there are enough requests, I may write an epilogue. I'm not sure what I'll put in it, but we'll see. Thank you so much for your feedback! It really helped the story. Oh yeah, someone told me that Ernie should jump in so Harry doesn't die? I was going to do that, but then you suggested it, so I thought might put a surprise in. well, that's it I guess!
Offleewild1: In Australia it's the philosophers stone and over in America and like, everywhere else it's the sorcerers. Don't ask me why!
Aprilshowers2: Ken was Pansy's b/f, I just wanted her to have someone so she wouldn't drool over Draco all the time. And, I made Pansy do that because I didn't want their relationship to be all lovey dovey and stuff. I wanted them to be on and off.
