Chapter 10

A/N: Thanks for all the reviews. Thanks for the support, and chapter 10 is made of my best efforts.

Warning: This chapter contains death/bloody parts and minimal cussing. Just want you to be aware of that before hand.

It had been one month since Harry, Hermione, Ron, Ginny and the Baudelaire's had started looking for Bellitrax on the Marauders Map. She had not yet been seen anywhere. Harry began looking during classes, he was so desperate. If she was hiding in the school, she was doing so good she was fooling the Map. All he wanted was to find Bellitrax and hurt her. Hurt her to his fullest extent. He felt cruel as he thought these things, but Harry wanted to see Bellitrax die, painfully, and slowly.

Luna Lovegood had become suspicious of Harry and his friends'; she knew they were up to something. Leaving the dinner table early; whether it had been at breakfast lunch or dinner. There were other suspicions as well. Klaus, Sunny and Ginny were still unaware of Harry secret 'love' life, but they seemed to be getting the hints. The perfuse blushing, anything that symbolized some kind of romance. Harry had a suspicion too; he couldn't help but think that professor Faux and Bellitrax were somehow together on Voldemort's plan to kill Harry. There was something about Faux, something he could connect between her and Bellitrax; he just couldn't put his finger on what it was though. It was nothing he could see, that was for sure, but there was something…

The first Quittich match of the season was drawing closer. Harry was prepared, though. The first match was against Ravenclaw, where he would once again have to face Cho Chang. He still liked her, a little, but they had yet to 'kiss and make up'. Cho was ignoring him as much as she could; Harry was doing the same. Sadly, they would come face to face at the match. Harry knew one thing though: the match would probably be a crushing, horrible, failing disaster. Not because his team wasn't good anymore, because in light of recent events, he just had a feeling in his gut. He didn't know it then, but boy, was he right.

It was the day of the match. He and Ron sat in the changing room, looking out into the crowd. He could see Hermione and Violet sitting together, followed by Klaus and Sunny, and last was Ginny and Hagrid. They were all holding Gryffindor flags and such; but Violet, Klaus and Sunny were wearing purely nervous looks on their faces. Luna was again sitting in the announcers seat, and McGonagall looked like she was already regretting her choice. Harry exhaled deeply and stood.

"Everyone ready for the match against Ravenclaw?" Harry asked his team.

"YES!" They shouted in unison.

"And WHO is going to win?" Harry asked loudly and brightly.

"US!" Shouted his fellow teammates. Harry put his hands in the air.

"THEN LETS GO KICK RAVENCLAW BUTTS!" Harry yelled. His team cheered, grabbed their brooms, and prepared to walk on the field.

Cheers and boo's filled the stadium as they flew out of the gate and onto the field. Harry could barely hear Luna's dreamy voice.

"And Gryffindor takes the field, followed by- WOOOHOOO- Ravenclaw!" Luna called gleefully.

"Damn!" Ron suddenly, toppling off his broom. He quickly, but nervously, jumped back on and whizzed to the posts. Harry chuckled to himself, taking his spot in the line-up. Madam Hooch walked onto the field.

"Same as always." She said loudly, "Clean, fair game- from ALL of you." Harry and the Ravenclaw Capitan shook hands. When Madam Hooch blew her whistle and threw the quaffle into the air, Harry whizzed off, searching for the Snitch.

"And Ravenclaw has the quaffle- no wait, now Gryffin- now its back to Ravenclaw!" Luna called. "That- err- that one Ravenclaw kid has the quaffle… he is closing in on Ron… Hey, look! A sickle!" She said suddenly, leaning down in her seat. Harry sighed. He suddenly saw a glint of gold. Ignoring McGonagall's yelling through the intercom, Harry sped off. Cho must have seen the Snitch, too. Before Harry knew it, they were side-by-side, arms outstretched, closer, and closer…

"RAVENCLAW SCORES!" Yelled McGonagall then continued to yell at Luna. Harry and Cho were inches away… when Harry saw a bright red light coming straight for Cho.

"Oh, shi-" He started but Cho screamed loudly as the bolt hit her. She and Harry were splattered in her blood. Harry whipped his glasses quickly as Cho fell from her broom. People screamed. Harry dived as fast and as hard as her could, Cho was losing a lot of blood… Harry grabbed her just before she hit the ground. He set her down gently and got off his broom, Cho's blood spilling onto the grass and sand. Ron came in behind him, Slughorn and some others from the front.

"Bloody hell, what just happened?" Ron asked. Harry shrugged. He heard someone.

"Crap." Harry said to himself.

"Avada Kedervra!" Someone yelled. A bolt of green light shot from nowhere, and it was heading straight for him and Cho.

"NOOOO!" Slughorn yelled unexpectedly. He jumped between Harry and the green light. Before anyone could do anything, Slughorn screamed, and fell backward, dead. He landed next to Harry. Harry felt like throwing up when he saw Slughorn's pale face, white as a ghost, and his eyes, the lights of which had left them. His mouth was open and his neck was bent oddly. It was disgusting for Harry to look at. He heard some people scream, including Violet and Hermione, and he turned from Cho and Slughorn. Unable to contain his lunch after looking at Slughorn, he threw up. Though, the last thing he saw before getting sick was professor Faux in the distance, waddling off with a look of evil triumph on her face.

A/N: Come on, was that good or what! R&R, I want to see what you think is coming! Man, now I'M on the edge of my seat, this is so exciting!
