Draco Malfoy sat in the potions classroom, noting that once again, Hermione was on her own.
"Where's Potter?" Balise managed to ask her, for some reason she and Draco had started to be cold to them again, they guessed it was from generations of hating each other.
Hermione looked over and said, "In the hospital wing."
"Again?" Draco asked, raising an eyebrow.
Hermione nodded, remembering what Harry had told her about the creature's blood.
Suddenly Professor McGonagall's voice rang through the corridors, "Would everyone please go to the Great Hall, it's an emergency."
Snape made the class all get up, and go to the Great Hall in single file.
When they entered what they saw they sat down at their respective tables with their classmates.
Hermione spotting a worried looking Jasmine, and a very angry Harry sitting at the table.
After everyone was seated Dumbledore began speaking, "I'm sure you're all wondering what happened this time. No, there hasn't been anymore murders, yet, but the worst has happened, Voldemort himself is almost here, and has broken past the first group of Aurour's, and is currently fighting this second. If they fall, there is one more group left, then finally all the teacher's must go, and if we fail, then the school will be taken over."
Everyone gasped, and whispers burst out everywhere in the room.
Most people were panicking, but two weren't.
The Potter's were both whispering, but something wasn't right.
When a Slytherin 7th year looked over he shuddered, it didn't go unnoticed.
Harry's head shot towards him, his eyes were angry, but if you knew him and looked closely you could see pain in his eyes, well that was understandable, one of his arms were broken, and the other one was badly hurt.
His eyes narrowed, and he whispered something to Jasmine, who looked over, nodded to Harry then turned away.
Many student's were obviously upset about this, and many were scared, it was only a matter of time before Voldemort got there, they were sure of it.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A week had passed, the Aurour's were holding up against Voldemort fairly well, since they were getting help from the Aurours from all around the world.
Aside from that, much to everyone's surprise, things started to turn, normal in Hogwarts again.
Jasmine would be seen studying all the time, and working very hard on her homework.
Harry was always busy with homework, prefect's duty, and Quidditch practice.
Hermione was doing the exact same things as Harry.
Ron was busy with homework and Lavender.
And everyone else all had their own things to do.
On Friday, there was a prefect's meeting held by the Headboy and girl.
All the prefects sat around the table in order.
Fifth year prefects: Padma Patil, Terry Boot (Ravenclaw), Hannah Abott, Craig Hullam, (Hufflepuff), Harry Potter, Hermione Granger (Gryffindor), Draco Malfoy, Balise Zambani (Slytherin).
Sixth year prefects: Lea Terrance, Sara Sutherland (Ravenclaw), Carmen Laurence, Josh Tally (Hufflepuff), Greg Jensen, Laura Monroe (Gryffindor), Douglas Origon, Mary Rowland (Slytherin).
Seventh year prefects: Hallie Jusmin, Tyler Clark (Ravenclaw), Madonna Morningside, Hugo Wilson (Hufflepuff), Katrina Aiken, Gordon Smith (Gryffindor), Trevor Thompson, Mandi Morgan (Slytherin).
It was the hardest thing to do, but Angelina, Michael and Professor McGonagall decided to replace Ashley Brown with Katrina Aiken, since it's what Ashley would have wanted, after all, Katrina was Ashley's best friend and took her death pretty hard.
"Alright everyone, lets get to the normal stuff first, has there been any trouble around here at all?" Michael asked.
"No," Everyone said together.
"To put it bluntly, Hogwarts is the most boring place around now," Draco said well rolling his eyes.
A few nodded and Angelina sighed, "I know, but we can't go around causing trouble just to make things more interesting."
"So, since nothing's been happening lately, does anybody have any news on how the war's going?" Katrina asked in a quiet voice.
Everyone was silent, until Michael said, "The teacher's won't tell us anything."
"They're getting worried, I think the death eater's are winning," Hermione spoke up.
"Then we'll be unprotected, then more then likely, we'll all die!" Trevor said to them.
Harry looked up, frowned and said, "Don't give up yet."
Everyone turned to him. Noticing he had all their attention Harry sighed and continued, "If the teacher's DO fall, then the last resort will be used."
"The last resort?" Terry asked.
Harry nodded and said, "But I can't tell you what it is, sorry."
A few people looked disappointed, and Mary said, "Figure that Potter knows about this and the rest of us don't. Let me guess, your sister knows too?"
Harry shot her a glare but didn't say anything.
Harry had a bad feeling at the back of his mind; he knew this was the calm before the storm, and honestly he was worried, since he gave half of his power to his mother he was worried that Jasmine and him alone wouldn't be powerful enough to win, or powerful enough to do anything at all.
Hermione looked at Harry's dazed expression with worry, and placed her hand over his.
Harry snapped out of his trance and smiled at Hermione taking her hand into his and squeezing it lightly.
Michael was talking to the others and Angelina was watching Harry and Hermione and said out of the blue, "We should go to bed now, it's getting late."
Everyone nodded and walked towards their common rooms.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Lily gasped, Remus's mouth fell open, Sirius didn't know what to say, and every other teacher had a look of pure terror on his or her face.
Dumbledore nodded and said, "Yes, I'm sorry to say, there's only have of the third group of Aurour's left."
"So it's only a matter of days before we have to go to," Flitwick said to them.
"Indeed," Dumbledore agreed.
Lily looked up and said, "I need to tell Harry and Jasmine."
They all turned to her and Snape said, "It's none of the student's business until it happens."
Lily's head snapped up, her eyes narrowed and she yelled, "IT MIGHT NOT BE ANY PROBLEM TO YOU BECAUSE YOU DON'T HAVE ANY CHILDREN HERE! I DO! IT'S NOT ABOUT THEM BEING STUDENTS HERE! IT'S ABOUT THEM BEING MY CHILDREN!"
Everyone stared at her in shock as she stomped out the door, and Sirius said, "You can tell where Harry gets his temper."
"I HEARD THAT!" Lily's voice yelled back.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Harry sat in an armchair in the common room with Hermione sitting on his lap, both were just staring at the fire.
Jasmine sat on the floor by the fire, reading a book and leaning her head on Dean's shoulder.
Ron and Lavender were asleep on the couch, leaning on each other.
Everything was quiet, and for once in the Gryffindor common room, peaceful. But they all knew it was a matter of minutes before something happened, and were they ever right.
There was a sudden sound like air coming out of a balloon, then a white missed floated in the room.
People started chocking, and fell to the floor, unconscious.
People started screaming, and tried to get out the portrait, but it wouldn't budge.
"WE'RE TRAPPED!" Parvati screamed.
"NO SHIT SERLOCK!" Someone yelled at her.
Everyone was panicking, until there was a loud bang and a voice yelled, "CALM DOWN RIGHT NOW!"
Everyone went silent, holding their robes over their mouths and moving away from the white mist.
Harry looked around and said, "Listen, I recognize this, it'll knock us out for several house, and if the cure isn't giving to us by then we'll die."
"Don't worry, the cure's the easiest one in the world to get. But make sure they're no ghosts or spirits around, they'll be destroyed from it, like Professor Binns was," Jasmine finished for her brother.
"Well what are you going to do about it?" A 7th year boy asked.
"Us?" Jasmine asked raising an eyebrow.
"Yes, you two are the ones that solve everything around here now," A 6th year said.
Harry narrowed his eyes and said, "What the hell are you? Wimps or Gryffindors? What's our house known for? It's bravery, courage, and our wiliness to stand up to dangers no one else will."
There was a silence, then Hermione said, "Does anyone know the dissolving spell? It's extremely complicated, I can't work it right."
There were mutters of no, then Ron said, "If we all shoot it together, it'll be strong enough."
Harry nodded and asked, "What's the spell?"
"Disporata Dispamito," Hermione said to him.
"Alright everyone, on the count of three," Jasmine said well yanking out her wand.
"DISPORATA DISPAMITO!" Everyone who was conscious yelled together, causing bright streams of light to come out of each wand.
They all hit the mist, causing it to vanish, then the oddest thing happened.
All the magic from their wands connected, causing there to be a powerful burst of magic to course through the school.
Then, there was nothing.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
About an hour later everyone woke up, feeling odd in some way.
"What happened?" Katie said as she pushed herself up.
"Dunno, BLOODY HELL!" Ron yelled after looking at himself, then he said, "I'm glowing."
Everyone looked at Ron to see a bright orange aura around him.
Everyone looked at themselves to see the same thing, but different colors.
Hermione's was royal blue, Seamus's was pale green, Dean's was dark yellow, Parvati's was bright aqua, Lavender's was dark pink, all the Weasley's were bright orange, infact all the family members had the same color's, except for Harry and Jasmine's. Harry's was a scarlet red and Jasmine's was a royal blue.
They looked at each other curiously, then remember since Harry had Gryffindor's power and Jasmine had Ravenclaw's power their aura's would be different.
When they went to breakfast, they noticed the whole school was like that, much to Harry's amusement a few male Slytherin's he didn't like had aura's like pink or purple.
Dumbledore stood up, his silver aura was bright, showing he had much power.
"Now I don't know how this happened, but we'll find out soon." He yelled to them all.
One of the first year Gryffindor's, with a lot of guts, stood up and told the story about what happened.
Everyone seemed confused about this, and a few students asked Harry and Jasmine, but no one knew what happened.
"It must have been caused by so many different sources of magic colliding into one that cause this, it should wear off soon," Lily said, smiling sadly at her scarlet red aura, known that once it had belong to Harry.
Within a day it all disappeared, and the only importance it had to anybody was to Fred and George, it gave them a wonderful idea for a prank, lets just say the Slytherin's had another pink and purple mess to go through.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Harry sat in the library, reading a book on Melin.
Hermione walked in, looked around. Then she saw Harry, walked over to his table and sat beside him.
Harry looked up and smiled at her, then continued reading and writing his essay about Merlin for History.
Hermione opened her book then there was a huge crash. She looked up, made a weird face and said, "Harry?"
Harry turned and looked at her and said, "Yeah."
"Why do you think Ron just ran into a wall?"
Harry also made a weird face as Ron came walking in well rubbing his head.
"Harry, I ran into your mother just a few minutes ago, and she told me to give this to you, she said she found in it the Gryffindor common room after the attack," Ron said, then put a deep red orb on the table.
Harry gasped, picked it up quickly, then said to them, "I'll see you later, I got to do something." With that he ran out the door.
Hermione sighed and said, "I miss how things used to be."
Ron looked at her, and then nodded and said, "Harry's changed, everything's changed, he won't tell us about anything anymore, nothing."
Hermione nodded, it was almost like Harry didn't trust her and Ron anymore.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Harry sat with Professor Dumbledore, looking at the stone with the elements of life in them. All they needed was darkness, light, death and life.
Harry let out a deep breath and said, "So, this is it, its almost time to see who will win, Gryffindor, Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff, or Slytherin."
Dumbledore looked at Harry, curious about his choice of words, then noticed Harry staring at his sword with something like anger.
"Harry?" He asked.
Harry looked up and said, "Nevermind. I better go Professor." With that he got up and walked out the door.
Dumbledore rubbed his temples and said, "Why him? Why is it always him?"
Harry had stopped outside the headmaster door and had listened, and he muttered, "I was wondering the exact same thing."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Harry sat in a room that no one else in Hogwarts knew about, just thinking. About what? He wasn't even sure anymore, too many thoughts had passed through his head.
He suddenly felt more weight on his right shoulder, and he looked over to see Hurricane on his shoulder.
°What's the matter Harry?° She asked her master.
°Nothing Hurricane, don't worry. I'm just thinking.° Harry said, then looked into the fire.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Professor Lupin looked around his class, and said, "Alright, today we'll be learning about one of the most dark, and painful things you'll ever hear of. The Dark Scar."
Everyone was watching Lupin, none uttered a word.
"The dark scar is obviously a scar, they're visible, and won't ever go away. There's not much known about this; it was discovered by Merlin, through a vision. It was said to be a total myth, but it's proven real now, twice, but only one person has ever had it."
Hermione's hand shot up, and Lupin said, "Yes Hermione?"
"I was just wondering, how do you get the dark scar? What does it look like, and what could be a side effect?" Hermione asked.
Lupin laughed and said, "That's a lot of question Hermione, but all the information I have is from Professor Dumbledore, so if it turns out to be wrong blame him."
A few people laughed, then he continued, "The dark scar is a scar that can be found on any part of the body as far as we know, after you get hit with a dark, dangerous or deadly curse, it can come in any shape, we think and...Mr Malfoy?"
Malfoy had raised his hand and said, "I was wondering, do you know who has the dark scar?"
"Yes, like I said only one person has a dark scar, actually two of them, we got all this information off of him, his scars are in lightning shaped, and I think you can take a guess who it is."
Harry froze. Jasmine's scar was created by a sword, so it would fade to a white-peach color, but his always were a dark red, and they were in lightning bolt shape, and his was created by the Advea Kedavra curse.
Everyone was staring at him, and Harry muttered, "Me, right?"
Lupin nodded, then said, "We're not sure of the side effects, but some people believe, people like the Minister of Magic, and a few others, that the scar will place a slight amount of dark magic in the person, basically Harry, and eventually that would spread, making the person evil."
There was a dead silence, and Harry felt suddenly sick, him evil? It couldn't, then again, Slytherin blood plus more evil...
He didn't want to think about it and didn't want to hear about it, he had been called a dark wizard too much for his liking. He jumped up, grabbed his books and quickly moved out of the class, not noticing the surprised look he got from his fellow classmates and Professor Lupin.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Well this chapter's done, I know, it might not be as long as my other ones, well sue me, (Not really) , I didn't have anything else to write about this.
Now I'm trying to throw everyone off, by adding things that'll probably never show up again on this, I know, stupid idea huh?
Well it's getting close to the end, and things are gonna start adding up, and trust me, no one's gonna believe how I'm gonna end this, I'll probably get flamed, no doubt.
And I highly doubt I'll be making a sequel to this story, but I will be writing other's, you'll see why, from my ending.
Well I'd like to thank the following reviewers, weather it was a review or flame to whatever:

"The dark scar is obviously a scar, they're visible, and won't ever go away. There's not much known about this; it was discovered by Merlin, through a vision. It was said to be a total myth, but it's proven real now, twice, but only one person has ever had it."
Hermione's hand shot up, and Lupin said, "Yes Hermione?"
"I was just wondering, how do you get the dark scar? What does it look like, and what could be a side effect?" Hermione asked.
Lupin laughed and said, "That's a lot of question Hermione, but all the information I have is from Professor Dumbledore, so if it turns out to be wrong blame him."
A few people laughed, then he continued, "The dark scar is a scar that can be found on any part of the body as far as we know, after you get hit with a dark, dangerous or deadly curse, it can come in any shape, we think and...Mr Malfoy?"
Malfoy had raised his hand and said, "I was wondering, do you know who has the dark scar?"
"Yes, like I said only one person has a dark scar, actually two of them, we got all this information off of him, his scars are in lightning shaped, and I think you can take a guess who it is."
Harry froze. Jasmine's scar was created by a sword, so it would fade to a white-peach color, but his always were a dark red, and they were in lightning bolt shape, and his was created by the Advea Kedavra curse.
Everyone was staring at him, and Harry muttered, "Me, right?"
Lupin nodded, then said, "We're not sure of the side effects, but some people believe, people like the Minister of Magic, and a few others, that the scar will place a slight amount of dark magic in the person, basically Harry, and eventually that would spread, making the person evil."
There was a dead silence, and Harry felt suddenly sick, him evil? It couldn't, then again, Slytherin blood plus more evil...
He didn't want to think about it and didn't want to hear about it, he had been called a dark wizard too much for his liking. He jumped up, grabbed his books and quickly moved out of the class, not noticing the surprised look he got from his fellow classmates and Professor Lupin.

Well this chapter's done, I know, it might not be as long as my other ones, well sue me, (Not really) , I didn't have anything else to write about this.
Now I'm trying to throw everyone off, by adding things that'll probably never show up again on this, I know, stupid idea huh?
Well it's getting close to the end, and things are gonna start adding up, and trust me, no one's gonna believe how I'm gonna end this, I'll probably get flamed, no doubt.
And I highly doubt I'll be making a sequel to this story, but I will be writing other's, you'll see why, from my ending.
Well I'd like to thank the following reviewers, weather it was a review or flame to whatever:
hArRy-PoTtEr-FaNaTiC - You were wondering about what thing worked about Voldie? I don't really know what that 'thing', which is kinda sad, I mean I wrote this.
Jetstar01 - Thanks, Jess. I'm gonna try and keep writing
Alexiel - Thanks for being patient (I know I wouldn't), and this chapter's finally up.
Seraph - Sorry, like I said, I doubt I'm going through year 6 an 7 in this, for good reason too. I might make Lily meet up with James (More then likely) and I probably won't be updating Crystal of the Unicorn, but after this is done there will be more HP fics coming from me
AtheneLupin - Sorry bout the spelling, I dunno why I spelt it Gordic, when it's Godric, hell I got the poster of the second movie on my wall and it says it right there.
