It's the Final Battle between good and evil. Harry falls for someone unexpected. Warning: mild slash, angst themes and character deaths. Please R&R. Disclaimer: I do not own any of the characters only the plot line.

Hope remains.

Epilogue

Harry had died for the cause, managing to save the wizarding world and his friends, or those who hadn't also been lost. Draco had died, but was reunited with Harry after death, if only in spirit and the thoughts, and hopes of others. Severus Snape to had been killed but had been forgiven, for his past wrongs, at the very last. Ron and Hermione had survived, but only just. Remus Lupin had been hit by a curse, cast by Sirius' killer lestrange. He had later died in the hospital wing from un-reparable damage and blood loss. Many others had also died in the war.

Death eaters had either been killed in the fight, or were imprisoned after the battle was over. Lucius was caught and imprisoned; where as Worm Tail was killed. Voldemort, not being fully human, had been cast in to the void, there to remain forever defeated, unable to return.

Hope remains because of one boy's lover for another, proving that love sometimes really can prevail.
