Harry's POV
I led the way through the mansion, trying to find our wands. I opened a door and saw four Death Eaters playing a game of Exploding Snap. I was about to close the door when I noticed something shiny by the far wall; Gryffindor's sword!
I closed the door slightly and turned to Fred and George
"Got anything?" I asked
They pawed through their cloaks, trying to find something of avail. George pulled out another candy, a deep-purple round candy ball
"What's that?" asked Lupin
"Exploding Candy," answered Fred, "They make quite a bang when you suck or chew them. Let's see how explosive they are"
George licked the entire candy and placed it near the door, while Fred began chewing on a Dragon Breath Candy. The group stood back, as the Exploding Candy doubled in size
"Three, two, one"
The door was knocked off its hinges, as Fred began breathing smoke. The Death Eaters were caught off guard, as the Order took care of them easily. Draco sheathed his sword and grabbed his wand, before facing Fred
"If that candy can do that by just being licked, what if it was in you mouth"
"It's not harmful"
"Not harmful? It blew a door off its hinges"
"Well okay, that's not the one you buy. That one was a special one George and I made specifically for something like this"
"Well, it works"
"Yeah I know, cool hey?"
Draco rolled his eyes and stood by the doorway. Lupin had tied the Death Eaters up with an Anti-Apparation Jinx, as I stepped out
"Okay, Draco and I will go and find Hermione. The rest of you will deal with the Death Eaters, alright," I said
"We'll do it, don't you worry, Harry," said Seamus, "We're doing it for everyone"
"Alright, let's go," said Bill
He and Lupin took the lead, as Draco and I split away and left. We headed up a set of stairs and came across both Lestrange and Victor Zabini

"Hello Pothead and Draco," greeted Lestrange
"Where is Hermione?" asked Draco
"This is your house. You tell me"
A faint scream came from somewhere
"Hermione," whispered Draco, "Hang on"
"How could you, Draco, a pureblood, care for a Mudblood?" asked Lestrange
"Who knows, you tell me"
"I've had enough of these games. Die!"
Lestrange and Victor shot a spell at the pair. They countered with Shield Charms, as the Death Eaters fired another two spells
"Let's deal with these fuckers, now," said Draco
When the third spell bounced from his shield, Draco lowered it and aimed his wand at Lestrange, who were preparing to fire another spell
"Explolitus!"
The spell struck Lestrange dead centre in the chest. His intestines were ripped out of his body, as blood was sprayed all over Victor. A split second after Lestrange died, Victor was hit by a Stunning Spell from Harry. They walked over and checked out Lestrange's body. Harry looked at Draco
"What kinda spell was that?"
"Disembowelling Curse. Lestrange taught me that one"
"Looks like now he shouldn't have"
"Come on, let's go," said Draco
He led the way up a set of stairs and came across a steel door. Harry joined him
"Reckon Hermione will be in here?" he asked
A scream came from within the room. Draco looked paler than usual
"Yeah"
He stepped back so he was next to Harry. Both raised their wands and at the same time, said,
"Bombardos!"
The door was blasted off its hinges, flying back and nearly striking Snape in the back of the head. Draco strode in and blasted his wand out of his hand. Snape glared at him, as Harry walked in, drawing his sword
"Hello, Snape"
Draco turned to Hermione, who was unconscious. The shackles had cut into her skin from her moving and there was a red mark on her cheek, signs of er being slapped. Furious, Draco turned to Snape and kicked him in the stomach
"You fucking bastard! I'm gonna kill you for this!"
Snape rolled away as Draco tried to kick him again, but missed. The former Potions Master got to his feet, glaring at the two young wizards
"You should be ashamed of yourself, Draco!" he spat
"Yeah, yeah, I've heard the goddamn story so many times now it's getting boring"
Draco turned away and undid the shackles, gently picking Hermione up and facing Harry. Snape was against the wall, held there by Harry's magic
"I'll leave him to you," said Draco, "I'm taking care of Hermione"
"Alright then," said Harry, "I'll see you later"
Draco held Hermione close to him and Apparated, as Harry flicked his wand and tossed Snape through the air to slam against the opposite wall. He kicked Snape's wand towards him. Snape picked it up and got to his feet, as Harry raised his wand
"Now, we finish this"
