Chapter 7
Voldemort's Fourth Horcrux
When Harry, Ron, and Hermione, and Dumbledore arrived back at the burrow, they received a big greeting. There standing in the doorway were Mrs. Weasley and Lavender Brown. They hung a large banner that said "Congratulations Harry". "So Harry I hear that you're not going to Azkaban", said Mrs. Weasley. "Yes that is true". "Yes it is", replied Harry. They began talking. The conversation lasted for hour. Mrs. Weasley even ordered some Butterbeer. Then when everyone was calm the gathered in the living room again.
"Professor where is the fourth Horcrux", asked Harry. Dumbledore thought for a few minutes and then spoke. "It's in a statue of Salazar Syltherin. The statue is outside Hogwarts; approximately 100 feet from the front door". "How will we be traveling", asked Hermione. "Ah. Hermione we will apparate. I believe you two are old enough", replied Dumbledore. The three started thinking real hard about Hogwarts. In a matter of a few minutes they arrived.
Harry, Hermione and Dumbledore approached the statue. Dumbledore pulled out his wand and aimed it at the statue. He said "Bracium Revealio" and yellow and blue sparks come out of his wand. They noticed a sixteen-year old boy immerge from the statue. This boy was Tom Marvolo Riddle (Lord Voldemort). The boy stepped forward and starting looking at Harry. "Ah Harry Potter, we meet again. This time you may not be so lucky in defeating me", said Voldemort. "We'll see how will die", replied Harry.
"I will go first" said Dumbledore. He and Voldemort bowed and the magical duel began. Voldemort pulled out his wand and aimed it at Dumbledore. He said "Furnunculus". Before anything could be released from Voldemort's wand, Dumbledore put up a mirror. Then large boils began forming his face. Voldemort aimed his wand at Dumbledore and said "Incendio". Dumbledore summoned a spell it was "Finite Incantatum". The fire was put out. The duel between Dumbledore and Voldemort went on for about 2 hours. When Dumbledore got tied he summoned to continue.
Harry walked up to Voldemort. He realized that if he refused to bow, then Voldemort would just make him. So he just did it anyway. Harry aimed his wand at Voldemort and said "Incendio". Instantly, Voldemort was covered in flames. Voldemort aimed his wand at Harry he said "Locomotor Mortis". Harry couldn't move his legs. He just seemed stuck where he was. "Hermione what do I do", Harry said. "I'll come help you. We can't let Voldemort escape.
Hermione and Voldemort bowed. Hermione aimed her wand at Voldemort and said "Stupefy". Instantly Voldemort's 4th Horcrux was unconscious. Then Harry and Hermione both aimed there wands at him and said "Avada Kedavra". That was it, the Horcrux was dead.
