Finally Potter

Chapter six

Ginny stood in the time room of the ministry. She loved being an unspeakable even if it meant she couldn't tell anybody what it was she exactly did. She sat down gently on the table and just stared at the hourglass.

A small smile played across her face as she remembered the first time she had seen this room, it was a horrible night that resulted in the death of someone very special but for her it was the night she was finally accepted. Something changed that night and she'd found herself seen for who she truly was.

The aftermath had been horrible she couldn't help but admit that. Both Ron and Hermione had been seriously injured and she'd spent weeks in the hospital wing. However it was the night that solidified her friendship with her brother and sister-in-law, as well as with Neville and Luna it took longer to bring Harry around.

The small specks of sand dropped into the bottom part of the glass and suddenly flipped over. As they began to drop again she started to remember Neville. It was funny how a night like that had brought their feelings forward. She loved Neville, and she knew part of her always would, okay so he wasn't Harry but he was her first love, the first boy who had loved her for herself.

She shook herself and grinned. This always happened whenever she sat in this room and just looked at those hourglasses her memories would spring to mind. They were always different depending on how she was feeling on that day.

A small bang brought her attention back and standing quickly she ran into the next room. It was filled high with prophecies and a small frown found its way to her. This room was always a place of bad memories for her, she hated it. This was the only room in the department that she tried to keep out of, she would even go into the room of death, which contained the very vial that Sirius had fallen through.

Looking around she saw a figure standing to one end and ran down to it. Looking up as she reached the figure she did smile, it was only Tony McDowell. He was her supervisor and specialised in prophecies.

"Morning Weasley, what you doing in here?"

"I heard a bang and well..."

"Were you in the time room?"

"Yes."

"Oh, so your memories of that night were showing, so it made you think that maybe somebody else had broken in here."

"It's stupid I know."

He tilted his head a little before shaking it.

"No it wasn't stupid; sometimes we get caught up after being in that room and you've seen some hellish things in your life."

She just nodded and looked around.

"What was the bang anyway?"

"Oh we've had a new prophecy."

He pointed up at the shelve and she felt herself holding her breath. She wasn't usually here when a new prophecy arrived and she'd never seen one before. But there it was, it was shinning slightly looking newer and cleaner than the rest.

Her eyes widened as she saw letters arrange themselves below the sphere shape:

B.T.M to H.J.G.W

Harry Potter

and Ginny Weasley

She spun to look at Tony and he too looked surprised at this. He was holding a clipboard in his hand which he glanced at before turning back to Ginny.

"Well another prophecy about Harry Potter."

"And me! My name's up there too, what does the prophecy say?"

"I'm not sure, the only thing that has come up on my clipboard is the name of the person who prophesised whatever it was, who witnessed the prophecy and the time and place it occurred."

"And?"

"Oh I can't tell you that."

Before he had time to react she had pulled the clipboard out of his hands into her own and scanned the sheet. The first name said Brenda Tamara Michael and Ginny guessed she was the one who had made the prophecy.

The second name though sent a sense of excitement through her veins, Hermione Jane Granger-Weasley. If Hermione had heard it Ginny would be able to find out what had been said, under the names was the time 10.36am and St. Mungos.

"Thanks Tony."

She handed back the clipboard and began to move.

"Are you taking an early lunch then Ginny?"

"No, I'm going back to the time room; I haven't finished doing my time in there today."

"Happy memories then Weasley."

She didn't bother turning around as she took her seat back on the table in front of her. She stared into the hourglass and felt herself drift as the memories of her past took over.

Ginny spun on her heel as she leaned back out of the reach of the spell that was heading towards her. Her heart skipped a beat as she caught sight of Ron on the floor. He was pushing himself trying to stand. In front of him stood Wormtail a wicked grin spread on his lips.

She was too far to hear what was being said but she didn't need to. Wormtail lifted his wand and she saw a red light steam from it. She couldn't move and she couldn't make a sound. Around her all noise died as she saw her brother, she knew this was it he was going to die he couldn't move.

Then Luna was there, right in front of him. He saw her eyes were shinning with something but Ginny didn't know what. She watched as the spell hit Luna and she straightened a little before falling limply onto Ron.

Time quickly sped up as Hermione and Ginny ran towards Ron. He was pale shaking but Wormtail had already moved off not looking to see if the spell had hit its target. Luna's eyes stared up at Ginny, looking straight into the afternoon sky but seeing nothing at all.

The room came into focus and Ginny shook herself back, she hated that memory watching Ron almost killed and seeing Luna die for him. It wasn't right that it had happened, and she spent most of the time trying not to think of it.

She picked up the sheet next to her and wrote down what she had seen. Then stared back into the hourglass. Ginny didn't quite understand why she saw these things when looking into the hourglasses but it was research that had to be done.

Staring hard the focus changed again and the scenes of the battle came to her again.

Ginny was on the floor, she'd been hit by a spell that had left her bruised in the ribs, she was in pain but she didn't care, they were winning the Death Eaters were out numbered now that so many had fallen and even more had disappeared off somewhere. This gave Ginny hope.

Some part of her now knew that Harry had defeated Voldemort that would be the only reason his followers would disappear in the style that they did. However this happiness soon died in her heart. Seamus yelled something from behind and moving to a sitting position she screamed.

Neville was laying under a carriage. She couldn't see anything from his waist down, he was trapped. She made herself stand and go to him; Seamus looked at her a glint of sorrow in his eyes. Nothing was said between them but they tried to lift the carriage off of him.

Ginny could see he was still breathing but he was unconscious and part of her thought he was going to die anyway. A spell burst onto the carriage between them and they stopped trying to lift it. Seamus just shook his head and ran back into the fight, tears sat in Ginny's eyes but she knew that there was only one thing she could do for Neville, win this battle and get him to hospital.

Her eyes gained focus again and a small shiver ran down her spine. It was hard to believe that she had witnessed all that in one day but it was true. She looked back at her clipboard at what she had written. So far she had seen her night in this department all those years ago, Luna's death and Neville's injury. She needed to look once more into her memories for her session to be finished.

She shock her head scared to go back to those memories but knowing that it was her turn to and she must.

Lucius Malfoy stood over her too close for comfort on her own part. His breath was warm as he moved closer to her; she could feel the hotness of it and then his fingers running along her arm. Before she knew it she felt him spit on her but before she could rub it away he was attacking her with words.

"You're a disgrace to the word wizard Weasley. It's your family and your kind that is destroying the purity of this world."

"No it's your kind that is destroying this world."

"You're the mudblood lover not me and you'll pay for that."

"I'm not afraid to die Malfoy, but I bet you are."

"Cruico"

She felt her body stiffen as the spell hit her, she wanted to scream but she was too proud for that, she wouldn't let him know how much pain she truly was in. She bit down hard on her tongue to stop any screams from emitting from her body.

Blood ran through her mouth causing her to want to vomit, it was an infectious taste but she didn't let on how she felt. The pain suddenly stopped and a gloating look was on his face. He didn't stop to do anything else to her though he had turned.

She heard him disarm somebody and with his back to her she spat the blood that was in her mouth onto his robes. He turned slightly and Ginny caught sight of Hermione looking stunned in front of him.

His wand was at her chest and Ginny moved around in front of Malfoy as she heard his taunt.

"I'm guessing that I won't be able to get away freely if I kill you, but I'm going to make sure you don't pollute this world with your mudblood."

His wand raised towards her and Ginny didn't hesitate to push Hermione to the ground. She heard Malfoy mutter the spell and pain radiated over her body. His smile made her want to vomit but she held it together as Seamus came up behind him and hit Malfoy with a spell.

Ginny felt tears in her eyes as she recorded that memory; it was her worse one she hated remembering the day she was hit with Infructuosus and all chances of her bearing children left her.

"Are you alright Weasley?"

"Yeah Tony, I think I'm going for lunch."

"Get going."

She stood and left heading to find Harry for lunch she knew she needed to talk to him now.


Okay I don't do responses anymore as responses got me banned only last week, but this is really important. A lot of you have said the same thing why not Hogwarts for the marriage. Hogwarts was the sight of the final battle, where they all lost loved ones, including Ginny's brothers and father. Then it is also the place that reminds Harry of Luna so they won't consider that at all.

The castles aren't all in Wales one is in Scotland and the last place mentioned is in England, one from each of the countries. As for Fosters I can't stand the beer it is horrible but I was trying to come up with a beer that we drink here in the UK and my dad had a can on the floor that is why Ron is a Fosters drinker.

One more thing I start back Uni tomorrow and that means that the updating might be a little slower as my work will have to come first.
