Chapter Eleven

I felt Harry's grip on my hand tighten as Voldemort uttered those words, and I shut my eyes tight, waiting for it to loosen. But it never did. His grip stayed tight, and I opened my eyes. A yellow, translucent shield was in front of us. I could see Voldemort gaping, and Harry wasn't dead.

"Harry?" I whispered in disbelief. He looked at me, just as shocked as I was.

"How?" he asked. I shook my head.

"I don't know," I answered, a grin sliding to my face. I threw myself at the raven haired boy, taking his lips captive with my own.

"NO!" Voldemort screamed. "Thwarted by the stupid love magic again. Jenna, you get off Potter NOW!" I turned and glared at him, still holding on to Harry.

"You don't own me," I snarled.

"I practically do, you're my Horcrux," Voldemort spat back.

"She's not a piece of property!" Harry shouted. I looked at him, raising my eyebrows.

"I said I was sorry," he pouted. I kissed him again.

"All right, when I figure out how to break through this shield, you both are dead!" Voldemort shrieked. "Beauty or not, you're a nuisance, and always have been. I'm getting rid of you Jenna."

"Wow, the last death threat I got was from Pansy Parkinson when I dated Draco," I pondered.

"I choose to forget that time," Harry answered blandly. I laughed.

"No laughter!" barked the mad man. He threw spell after spell at the shield, but all were absorbed without even touching us. With every failed spell, Voldemort's anger grew. Then suddenly I heard it; Shouts and a loud bang. In came the cavalry.

"Unhand Jenna!" three male voices shouted.

"And Harry," Hermione walked in, rolling her eyes.

"You know, you all were almost too late, you realize that?" I said. "What's wrong with you? Breaking all the rules…"

"You're still alive aren't you?" Nicole raised an eyebrow. "Anyway, we got lost. The boys wouldn't stop and ask for directions." All three of us girls muttered "men."

"Well, here's an excellent way to get the shield down," Voldemort smiled, pointing his wand at Hermione. Six wands pointed back at him.

"You can't win," Wood growled. Voldemort's eyes flashed, surveying the situation.

"Jenna," Harry whispered so only I could hear him. "When I say so, let go of me and then use Avada Kedavra on Voldemort."

"What?" I asked. "He's not going to die Harry, I'm a Horcrux, you have to kill me if you want to kill him."

"But what if the Horcrux is the one attacking him?" Harry questioned.

"Well…"

"Hermione researched. She sent me the signal that it will work. You just have to trust me on this Jenna." I nodded.

"I trust you Harry," I answered.

"Good. Now get me out of these shackles, and then when you let go, George will toss you his wand, and Fred will toss me his, and we both Avada Kedavra Voldemort, ok?"

"You had this planned out I see," I gave Harry a look. He grinned guiltily.

"Yes," he admitted. I laughed, giving the shackles a hearty tug, and they came out of the walls. Voldemort was still arguing with Wood about Hermione.

"Ready?" Harry asked. I nodded and hugged him tighter. "Let go."

We pulled apart and the shield vanished. Fred and George tossed us their wands and Harry and I stood, yelling in unison. Voldemort whipped around just in time to see the green jets of light shooting towards him. Without enough time to react, the spells hit him. His eyes grew wide, and then he let out a terrible scream, billowing smoke as his flesh burned and bubbled to nothing. A pile of robes lay on the floor. Voldemort was gone.

"Is he…really gone?" I asked Harry, grabbing his arm to steady myself. Harry nodded.

"I think so."

"Jenna!" A mass of males threw themselves on me.

"Really, they act like Harry wasn't in danger at all!" Hermione tutted at the group. Harry laughed.

"Thanks for the concern Hermione," he smiled, giving her a hug.

"You all right mate?" Ron asked, grinning. I pulled myself away from the guys.

"I'm ok, I swear!" I told them. Fred rolled his eyes.

"They really can't contain themselves at all," he said. I hugged the red haired twin.

"Thanks guys," I smiled at everyone.

"We only did it to shut those three up," Josh nodded towards George, Draco and Wood, who all turned away, doing their best to look innocent and unconcerned.

"What was that shield?" Hermione asked. I shrugged.

"Something we somehow created when I was about to die," Harry answered, locking eyes with me. I smiled and he smiled back. This could be our little secret.

We all returned back the cave, spreading the good news to the sickly and others who were there. I attended to the last of the patients and they went home. If they still had a home.

"So begins the rebuilding process," I sighed, sitting next to Harry. I had healed all of his wounds, including two nasty metal burns from the shackles.

"There's still one more thing left," Harry commented, pulling me to my feet.

"And what's that?" I asked suspiciously. He grinned and kissed me.

"You and me. Marry me Jenna," he said. My breath caught in my throat. It was so unexpected…

"Of course," I smiled. I didn't really have to think about the answer because I knew who I belonged with. I had always been happiest when I was with Harry. He smiled back and kissed me again.

"You wanna break it to the others?" he jerked his head towards the open doorway. The others meaning George, Draco and Wood.

"Not particularly," I grimaced. "They're going to kill you."

"Please, I'm the great Harry Potter," he winked. "I survived Voldemort, I can survive them."

"Somehow I think the wrath of three jealous, heartbroken guys is worse," I answered. He shrugged. "So where's my ring?"

"I'll get you one, I promise. I just wanted to ask before you changed your mind about me." He grinned again. I pushed him.

"You're so bad Potter," I shook my head, glaring.

"But you love me."

"I do."

"I like the sound of those words." I laughed. Things were finally looking up again.
