Hogwarts

Professor Dumbledore was pacing his office when Sirius, Ron, and Harry entered the room. He could tell by the expressions on their faces that it wasn't good.

"What happened?" he asked as they approached him.

"Its over Professor, no more, I'm not letting anymore of my friends get hurt," explained an outraged Harry.

"What happened" Dumbledore said now worried.

"Hermione was stabbed to death, Professor" Ron said quietly. "We should have protected her,"

"Mr. Weasley, Hermione knew what she was getting into when she decided to take this assignment," said Dumbledore "Sirius, you know what to do next,"

"Yes, Professor"

"No, I can't let Sirius die, too" said Harry

"Harry you have to let Sirius do what he needs to do, you on the other hand need to prepare for your fight with Voldermort."

"Why can't we all fight?" asked Ron

"No Ron, I refuse to lose another friend"

"Harry, he killed my life, what could I possibly lose other then you?"

"Gentlemen," Dumbledore said "You both will be trained, but it has to be Harry who fights him in the end, according to the prophecy, either one of you has to die,"

"I have to leave now," said Sirius

"Alright"

"But Sirius!" exclaimed Harry

"Harry, I have to go Voldermort, is going to wonder what other followers are going to betray him, I promise to be careful," with that he was gone.

Voldermort's Layer

After Sirius, Ron, and Harry had disappeared, Voldermort had gave the order to remove Hermione's body. Then he summoned Steven Williamson.

"Now Steven, I want you to tell me who else you've seen betraying me,"

"No one….my lord" he answered shaking.

"Come on now, who is it? Is it Sirius, I told him to keep an eye on her, he assures me that he is on my side and I believe him, do I have any reason not to?"

"No my lord, to my knowledge he is being very loyal, I never even saw her with him,"

"Alright, you may go, speak of the devil" Voldermort said when he saw Sirius. "What do I owe this great honor?"

"Checking in my lord," he replied

"Do you know of our latest achievement?"

"No, my lord"

"I have killed Hermione Granger, she was betraying me, and what do you think about that?"

"I don't think she was, she was with me the entire time,"

"Apparently she wasn't, she went to visit a friend of mine, and he was holding her hostage she was talking to the other side Sirius, I thought that this was going to happen" he approached Sirius "Have you been betraying me Sirius?"

"No, my lord" he said calmly.

"Alright, I'll believe you for now," he said " I'm going to give you a chance to prove your loyalty to me, I want you to bring Harry Potter to me, Mrs. Granger was supposed to bring him to me the day after, so I want him to be surprised," he laughed evilly

"Yes, my lord"

Hogwarts

After Sirius had left, Harry, Ron, and Dumbledore went into the room of requirement to get them started in training. He started Harry on some complicated defense spells, and Ron on some more moderate ones. After Dumbledore had settled them into a routine, he stepped out and went to his office, where he saw Sirius.

"So what went down?"

"He wants me to get Harry to him tomorrow, is he going to be ready?"

"I honestly don't know, he has most of the defense spells down, and Ron will be able to protect himself against his goons," Dumbledore said sighing. "Have you been preparing her?"

"Yeah,"

"Well let's go over what you're going to do," Dumbledore pulled out a map of Voldermort's layer.

Meanwhile in the room of requirement, Harry was sitting on a chair taking a breather and watching Ron get frustrated with a spell.

"Ron, do you need some help"

"No, I can do it myself thank you," Ron replied sarcastically.

"Ron-,"

"Harry, you don't understand I have to know how to do this myself, if I can't then theirs no way I can help save you," he faced Harry. "I've already lost Hermione; I can't lose you too,"

"I lost Hermione too you know, I loved her like a sister, you're my best friend Ron," he stopped because Ron sat down and put his head in his hands.

"I asked her to marry me;" he looked up at Harry "We were going to start our life together after this mess was cleaned up,"

"When did this happen?"

"The night after graduation, she came to my apartment and things just happened, we made love and I asked her to merry me," he said "She said how my timing was off, but she would love to merry me after this whole mess was over,"

"Oh Ron, I didn't know-"

He was interrupted by Dumbledore coming back in.

"Harry, tomorrow morning Sirius is going to take you to Voldermort's layer,"

"Ron, you and the order are going to go with him, invisible of course" he looked both of them in the eye. "I hope your both ready, Harry go home and relax, Ron come with me,"

"Are you doing alright Mr.Weasley?" Dumbledore asked when they were walking to his office.

"Well enough, losing Hermione, well," he looked down as he walked.

"Don't lose hope, Ron"

They walked the rest of the way to his office, their waiting on them was the rest of the order.

12 hours later, Hogwarts

"Harry wake up," Dumbledore shook Harry out of sleep in his dormitory. "Sirius is going to be here in a few minutes,"

"Alright," Harry said groggily, he didn't get much sleep.

"Now I want to warn you now, don't be heroic," then Dumbledore left.

Sirius then entered the room. He came to his bed, looked at him with concern in his eyes, but it quickly left.

"Let's go," he said harshly. He grabbed Harry by the shirt and started to pull him out of the dormitory.

"Sirius-,"

"No, if I show you even the tiniest bit of special treatment, he will suspect something," He then proceeded to drag Harry out of Hogwarts, to Voldermort's Layer.

Voldermort's Layer

When Harry and Sirius entered Voldermort's Layer, which consisted mainly of a large room and two small rooms, he was sitting in a chair that was sitting on a podium.

"Well he finally decides to join us, good job Sirius" he said. Sirius plops Harry down and he joins his master up at the podium. Just then all of the Deatheaters appeared behind him.

"Harry Potter, this fight is between you and me, but I do have to say that you're outnumbered," he laughed.

"No he's not," said Ron who with all of the order behind him, began to walk towards him.

"Well this is a surprise! More people to witness the downfall of the great Harry Potter," Voldermort chuckled. "I think this is the time, I've been tired of waiting to defeat you," He pulled out his wand and pointed it at Harry.

"This time there won't be anymore surprises, like your parents coming out of my wand,"

He pointed his wand at Harry and yelled the killing curse, but like the last time their wands connected, the power was radiating on both sides. The point at which they connected was like a tug of war, it would waver to both sides. Since the deatheaters couldn't help in their master's fight, they each took a person of the order to take down. Sirius up till now had been standing in the corner watching the fight, then he would intervene when one of the order was having a hard time.

"Alright I've had enough, it's not enough just to kill you," he motioned to one of his followers. The DeathEater took Ron and held him as hostage. Well this just made Harry angry and the tug of war was on his side.

"Ah look what we have here, does this make you angry Potter?" he said. The Deatheater tighten his hold on Ron which made him cry out.

"You let him go right now!" said a familiar voice.

Ron looked past Harry and saw with amazement, a Deatheater had stopped fighting and was pulling off the mask. What they saw, they will never forget, Hermione.
