Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter. J.K. Rowling does. I do want to own Snape, but don't. I do own Molly Connor and Serina Connor. This is my first Harry Potter fanfiction. I apoligize if names aren't spelt right, I currently don't have my books on me for reference.

The war was over. Harry Potter defeated Voldemort during the battle on Hogwarts. It was pre-destined, but unplanned.

The End-of-Year feast of Potter's sixth year was the very night Voldemort attacked. Many were killed in the initial attack. Lucius Malfoy faced off against his son, Draco. Draco killed his father after seeing his friends fall at his father's hands. It was the first time Draco had used an Unforgivable, and it was also his last. He was overtaken by Death-Eaters and murdered.

The ones who survived fought till the last Death-Eater was killed. Harry and Voldemort entered into a duel. The battle was amazing. Neither could stop the fight. The battle ended when Ron Weasley distracted the Dark Lord long enough for Harry to destroy him. However, Ron didn't get to see the results of his endeavor. Voldemort cast the Killing Spell before being blasted into nothingness by Harry.

Ron was mourned, as well as the others who had fought. The Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher was murdered, ironically. The other teachers had major wounds and were bleeding. Madame Pomfrey was attending to everyone as fast as she could with the help of Hermione Granger, Gryffindor Know-it-All.

The battle had lasted for several hours and now was over.

Albus Dumbledore approached The Boy Who Lived, who was currently sitting by the lifeless form of his best friend. His blue eyes stared down at the empty shell of Ron Weasley. Tears wouldn't come to mourn his dear friend.

"It's over," he said. "It's over, but at the cost of so much."

Dumbledore nodded, his eyes no longer twinkling as they were hours ago. "Ron's death saved all of ours. Had you died, we all would have followed. He will always be remembered, and we will not forget the sacrifice he gave for us."

Harry's eyes closed as he listened to Dumbledore's words. He fell to the ground and wept, finally able to express his grief of Ron's death.

Days passed and Hogwarts left empty. The blood was washed away and bodies buried. The only people who remained were Harry, Hermione, Dumbledore, Severus Snape, and Hagrid. The form of what was once the most powerful wizard ever to exist lay burning before their eyes. No tears were lost over his death, and no sympathy to his cause.

The greatest threat the Wizarding world had ever known was dead. The war was over.

Okay. I know it was short, but it is just an interlude to more interesting chapters. Sorry it is so sort. Please read and review.
