Ch 15 The Dark Lord's Supporters and his Traitors

The aching in his head hadn't been this bad since...the Department of Mysteries. Harry shivered, though it was still warm outside. He knew who was coming, and judging by the way Snape tensed so did he. Ginny was the only one of the three who wasn't aware that Lord Voldimort was on his way. The pain in Harry's head became so intense he fell to his knees and Ginny rushed to his side and helped him up.

A flash of green light heralded the arrival of Lord Voldimort and his supporters bowed onto there knees, oblivious to there spectators.

"Remember your oculemency" Snape Whispered into Harry's ear as he strode forward and took his own knee in the ring around Voldimort.

"As I have been informed by Mr. Malfoy here" Voldimort's snake like voice rang around the small street, Lucius Malfoy's bow deepened which Harry previously hadn't thought possible "Hogsmead is ours, save a few rebels. I want the last part of that statement removed or you will all pay!"

There was a slight murmur as the Death Eaters left the scene. Harry and Ginny pressed in against the wall, into the shadows. Harry's hand held his wand securely, vaguely he wondered about it's dimensions. His wand felt thicker than usual and a little longer, than it clicked he still had Belatrix Lestrange's wand! Harry hoped that the wand wouldn't give her any trouble.

"Mr. Snape" came that inhuman hiss that passed for a voice.

"My Lord?" Snape asked.

"Before I tell you of what I have to say I would like Mr. Potter to join us"

Harry's heart stopped, he had been found out. Ginny's hand came around his waste and he knew that she was his only hope. She kissed his cheek and gave him a small shove.

'How she was so calm Harry wondered she's never...but she had experienced Voldimort, first hand.' With the unsettling thought that he was marching to his death, he stepped out of the shadows and walked steadily to face the dark lord.

"Good to see you again Potter. It seems that you have fallen victim to my trap." Voldimorts slithering speech was irritating "I knew that when Hogsmead was threatened you would try to do something about it. I'm offended to have you think that I haven't calculated your every move. This plan of yours will fail, I know all to well how you intend to win."

"Then there was one thing you didn't count on, it's not my plan."

"Snape get over here!" ordered Voldimort. Snape obeyed and allowed Voldimort to roll up his sleeve and touch the mark burned into his forearm. Almost at once Death Eaters began to Apperate to the Dark Lord's side.

"You have outlived your usefulness" the Dark Lord informed Snape, raising his wand "You filthy double agent! You think you can keep the fact you have joined Dumbledore secret from me? You FOOL! Crusio!"

Through the pain of the curse, and his screams of Agony, Snape raised his wand. He didn't point it at Voldimort however; he aimed it at the sky. A jet of Fire shot from his wand, accompanied by what appeared to be Phoenix song.

Seeing this, Voldimort looked vaguely confused. He then increased the intensity of his own curse and Snape's fire died away.

Harry thought he saw movement in the shadows behind him but couldn't be sure.

Voldimort lifted the curse from Snape and left him panting on the ground.

"Asio wand!" Voldimort cried and Snape's wand came ripping from his hand "You will now watch as everything you have fought for comes crashing down upon you."

"NOW" Snape bellowed, seemingly using every ounce of strength he possessed. Snape collapsed unconscious and limp. But it seemed that he had been giving an order, as there were shouts of Jinxes and hexes from behind the Death Eaters. Many fell and Harry saw that there were teachers and even the odd student behind the rows of Death Eaters fighting now for all they were worth.

The first Volley of spells had hit the Death Eaters, falling many. Having been caught by surprise, many weren't ready for the second round either. Harry saw that even with there losses the Death Eaters out numbered the others by an alarming margin.

Voldimort waved his wand and a Giant wall of fire sprang up, separating the fighting from Harry, himself and the unconscious form of Snape.

"And this is all part of your plan that's not yours is it?" Voldiomort laughed seemingly unconcerned by the battle ragging on behind the wall of Flames.

"It wasn't his plan!" came a defiant voice, the source of which Harry couldn't locate. He felt a hand on his shoulder and realized that it must be Ginny using his invisibility cloak. She took it off and stood by Harry's side, wand held firmly in her hand. She pressed something into his hand, his wand!

"How cute" Voldimort's hissed "I thought heroes didn't lie?"

"He didn't lie!" Ginny insisted, why was who's plan it was such a big deal?

"Then who's plan was it?"

"Mine"
