Chapter Seventeen
The glow from the Sixteen brightened to a white so bright it was beginning to look blue, filling the air and diffusing through the chamber, exposing the vast room that had previously lain unseen.
Pair by pair, each duel saves for Dumbledore and Voldemort stopped to watch the group.
Harry was aware of everything and everybody around them in a dimmed sense, utterly surrounding him. Snippets from all of their memories invaded mixed with his own… Niko and Cirocco's older brothers teasing them, holding a toy broomstick over their heads, Stacey out with her friends shopping at a magical books store… Freda dancing with her boyfriend at a party, Alfred watching a Quidditch game with his young cousin, Hannah at a family Christmas party, a tiny Neville on his father's lap, Yesi talking to another Auror at the Ministry… Gabrielle walking with her mother, Justin doing homework in the school library, Susan at a sleepover a few summers ago… they came and went within seconds, each lasting only a few moments and all completely random.
A booming voice echoed inside his head, and he knew it was in the others heads too; more than just hands joined them.
Death and its Darkness will end today, and Light will overcome.
The light around them separated to form a vine, it circled around them, drawing another stem from each of them into the centre until it was one stream within the glow and rose upwards, bending towards Voldemort and zooming to him like the opposing side of a magnet.
An unearthly screech wrenched itself from Voldemort's throat, his wand half raised as the Light went right through the half cast shield and into Voldemort.
The screech turned defiant but the Light only grew brighter, infusing his every pore, flushing out the red slits.
Harry squeezed an eye open to watch what he knew was happening. Every spell Voldemort ever cast on himself was coming undone, the work of every potion going to the pail.
Voldemort was coming unwrapped.
He was dying.
Where the being once was, Light was slowly replacing it, obliterating each particle of darkness like a laser.
The light reached a flash point of its own, so blinding it forced Harry to close the eye he'd opened, but he still heard the scream, and he knew he'd never forget it.
It was the scream of someone doomed.
Of someone being destroyed once and for all.
Other screams joined it, though these were of pain, but Harry didn't know why.
He didn't know anything for a long time.
