A/N: NEXT CHAPTER!... Oh i'm so going to be late for work if i don't hurry.

It's over Minerva, It's finally over. The voice came drifting through Hermione's dream. Wrapping themselves tight around her as she flew over the top of a bright and gleaming hogwarts. Then an evil face leaped out at her and swallowed her whole.

She awoke gasping for air, shutting her eyes quickly because of a gleaming light. It all came flooding back to her. She rolled over slightly.

"Avada Kadavra!" shouted Harry with his wand pointed to Voldemort. Draco and herself were watching as a bright green light protruded from Harry's wand with light speed and intercepted Voldemort's body as he tried to appaperate away. She would always remember the grotesque look on Voldemort's face as he saw the light. He exploded with such a force that everyone in the area was knocked backwards. His life force was leaving him. Infact they weren't just knocked backwards they were thrown backwards, flying feet in the air. She was knocked backwards to the stone wall and knocked out cold.

"Hermione?" Draco said softly. He had heard her stir.

He yelled when he hit the wall, He heard Hermione slump to the ground. He quickly went over to her and tapped her. " Hermione, Hermione, baby, can you hear me?" He pushed back her hair from her forehead and saw a trickle of blood running down from her hairline. Knocked out cold.

He heard a scuffling behind him and looked to see wormtail tuning into a rat, he quickly pulled out his wand and cried " Immobulus!" the rat froze halfway through his transformation. His head was tiny compaired to his body. Draco looked around and found a thicket of thorns and waved his wand and transformed it into a cage which he stuffed Peter Pettigrew into.

Taking a moment he looked around the scene on which several members of the MInistry of Magic were flying onto. Dumbledore was standing with his hand on Harry's shoulder as Harry stared at disbelife that he had just killed the same person who had murdered his parents and countless other's.

A reporter from the Daily Prophet was there dancing around getting pictures of everyone. Harry, still with his wand raised, Dumbledore as he stood behind Harry, Pettigrew in a cage, Lucius Malfoy tied to a tree.

Hermione coughed weakly from behind him. He turned quickly and saw her trying to sit up.

He quickly walked to her " Hermione. Come on, it's all over, come on." He wrapped his arm around her and helped her up to her feet. They walked towards Harry who had finally put his wand down and looked at him. He turned to Hermione and looked at her and smiled " It's good to have you back Hermione." he said before reaching out with one arm and pulling her into a brief hug.

"Harry!" they heard a shout from behind him. There was Ginny running full blast towards Harry with Ron and Lindsay tailing not far from her. She launched herself into his arms. " Oh, Harry, I was so worried." she said as she hugged him tighter.

Harry just smiled. "Ginny..." He looked at Ron who seemed to be glad just to see his best friend again.

Ron smiled and reached out and clapped Harry on his back. " Well done, Mate."

Dumbledore then appered next to them. He looked at all of them grouped together. Harry Potter with the biggest smile on his face as he hugged Ginny Weasley who didn't seem to want to let him go. Her big brother Ron standing there with his arm around Linsday Davenporte with a shocked but happy look on his face. Then Hermione Granger, looking beat up and worn, barely standing as Draco Malfoy held her up to his chest. " I think it's time for us all to go back to Hogwarts." He said smiling at them

He quickly conjured up a portkey out of stick and walked over to Fudge. " They are all going back to Hogwarts, They will be able to do interviews at their pleasure when deemed healthy by our school nurse Madame Pomfrey and not one moment before." He said sharply before walking back. " One finger will do it."

They all reached forward and waited for the sensation of a jerking feeling behind their navels.

In seconds they were launched forward and went spinning, landing in Dumbledore's office. Most of them on the floor with only Dumbledore, Draco, and Harry still standing.

Dumbledore calmly walked to his fireplace, threw some powder in and called out. " Poppy, if I could see you in my office for a few moments."

Madame Pomfrey came whirling threw the fire place, she stepped out and brushed ash and soot off of her gown. " Yes Headmaster." she said before looking around at all the beaten kids in the room. " Oh my goodness." she immediatly came bustling over to them.

"It's over Poppy, Lord Voldemort has finally been conqured." He said looking at Harry who had now pulled Ginny to her feet and was smiling despite his tiredness. "Now if you could escort these students to the hospitally wing, I would be most greatful. I do have some other things I must deal with at the moment."

"Yes, yes of course." she said starting to flap her arms to get them out.

"One moment, Mr Malfoy. Miss Granger."

They turned and curiously looked at Professore Dumbledore. They walked back to his desk.

He motioned to them to have a seat, so they did.

"Mr. Malfoy," Dumbledore began gravely. " I believe you have something to tell Miss. Granger about her kidnapping." He looked Draco straight in the eye with his piercing blue stare.

"Hermione..." he started, he turned and looked at her. She was just to trusting. ' Hermione, it's my fault..."

He explained, how his father made him get close to you so it would be easier to get her away. Saying how Voldemort wanted her so he could get to harry potter, how in the begining he only pretended to like her so she would get close to him.

"No." she said breaking down and starting to cry.

He quickly went to her side and she jumped up and pushed him away. " Hermione, I do love you now."

"Someone who loves another doesn't turn them over to someone who wants to hurt them!" she cried, yelling, wipping her face.

" Hermione, Don't you think i Know that!" He said stomping around, not quiet aware that Dumbledore was still watching them. " As soon as I reliezed I loved you I stopped taking orders from my father! But that didn't help! He put me under the imperious curse! I was forced to do whatever he wanted me to do. He also branded me like some sort of cattle!" he said moving the white, stained, wife beater aside to show her the fancy ' M ' on his shoulder. He's been controling me through this!"

She looked up at him " your an asshole" she said, standing up, pulling the locket off her neck and throwing it at him, before storming out of the room.

Draco picked up the locket and opened it. She had put pictures in there. One of her and one of him. "Dammit"
