Chapter35 The Phoenix, and the Serpent!
"Diffendo," the ropes around Arthur Weasley disapeared. Harry knelt by him and saw that he was uncounscious. "Eneverte", Arthur Weasley looked up at Harry and struggled to give him a weak smile. "Here Sir this will help." Harry pulled out the flask that was hidden in robes. "It's a strengthening solution." Mr. Weasley silently took the potion. Harry continued to rummage in his robes to find the spare wand to give to Mr. Weasley. He looked up to see the Death Eaters sneaking up on Ron while he was keeping look out for Harry. Harry pointed wand at the Death Eater. "Stupefy", Harry watched as the Death Eater fell down. Ron was oblivious to it all. Finally Harry felt the spare wand jab him in the side. Damn that thing was sharp. When all else failed you can use the bloody thing to jab it into the Death Eater's eyes. Harry managed to get it out of his tangled robes and gave it to Mr. Weasley.
"Here I know it is not the same as yours, but you won't be defenseless at least."
"Thanks Harry you did think of everything, but..." Mr Weasley stopped speaking and Harry saw why, Ron, Hermione and Ginny was surrounded by Death Eaters.
Harry left Mr. Weasley and started firing stunners, at the Death Eaters. Harry heard foot steps behind him, he looked back and saw Mr.Weasley following him. Harry gave a small laugh to himself, "Nothing will keep a Weasley down, expecially when it's their family being threatened."
Harry took careful aim at a Death Eater that was about to curse Ginny. "Petrificus Totalus," the Death Eater went rigid and fell to the ground. Harry watched Ginny point her wand towards another Death Eater, the next thing he knew he saw great flapping things attack the Death Eater's face. Harry knew that she just used her favorite curse on them. Harry felt a surge a pride in him, but he knew he didn't have time for that now. Time was now of the essence.
"Stupefy," Harry looked over to see a red beam come out of Mr. Weasley's wand. It struck a Death Eater on the side of his face, and knocked him out cold. Harry began to hearing popping sounds fill the air around him. Death Eater's were apparating in from every direction.
The strangest thing was as the Death Eaters were apparating in the Order of the Phoenix were also apparating in too. "At least this gives me cover that I need to go find Voldemort,"
Harry told himself silently. Harry ducked through the grave yard to the old Riddle house. He took his invisibility cloak out of his pocket and put it on. At least no one could see he was coming.
Harry reached the door, he cautiously looked around him. "Alohomora," the door sprung open. Harry peered around the door cautiously. He stepped in. He felt his invisabilty cloak tug. Harry looked behind him seeing nothing. His eyes adjusted to the darkness around him. There was dust and cobwebs on the walls and the old furnishings. "I guess old Voldie couldn't be bothered with a few cleaning spells," Harry thought wryly to himself.. Harry went slowly up the old creaking stairs. Harry swore to himself silently. " What is the bloody point of being invisible, if I can't even go up the stairs quietly." Oddly enough Voldemort didn't seem to come out. Then Harry realized that Voldemort wanted this time for Harry to come to him. An odd chill went though him at the thought of it all. A sense of familiar seemed to plague his his senses, until Harry realized he seen this all in a dream, he had long ago. Instantly Harry knew which room old Voldie was waiting in for him.
Harry stood outside the door gathering in his Gryffindor courage, when the door suddenly opened. "Well well Potter, didn't those filthy muggles teach you any manners? Don't you know it's rude to lurk at doorways?" Voldemort paused for a moment and then pointed his wand "Crucio!"
Harry felt the spell around him, his phoenix pendant went warm Harry watched as the spell spread out all around him, but still not touching him. Harry heard the Phoenix song coming within him. Harry pointed his wand to Voldemort "Stupefy."
Voldemort just casusually swished his wand and deflected the curse. "Potter you are so predictable that curse is so, shall we say elementary. How about you try some with some power like this." He brandished his wand like a whip, he muttered an incantation that Harry couldn't hear. The next thing Harry knew that they were outside with a blizzard raging around.
Harry had a weird feeling that Voldemort sent them to Greenland! "I can see by your face Potter that you figured out where you are, but there is no one to save you here."
Harry pulled his cloak around him, and casted a heating charm around him, but still he shivered. Harry felt the Phoenix go warm around his neck, when he words "crucio."
The spell bounced harmlessly off of Harry. Harry aimed his wand at Voldemort. "Stupefy," a red jet came out of his wand. Voldemort deflected it with just a flick of his wrist. Harry dodged another crucio spell. Harry flicked his wand again, "tangarella," this time Voldemort wasn't fast enough. Harry had to laugh as Voldemort started dancing. While Voldemort was busy dancing Harry hit him with the tickling curse. Voldemort fell over from dancing and laughing, but he managed to point his wand at him, and muttered "finite incanteum."
"Well that was amusing wasn't it Potter." Voldemort's eye'd narrowed even more with a cold fury.
"Yeah I thought it was." Harry flicked his wand at Voldemort and then there was a bang then Voldemort had a bright flashing neon sign on him that said World's Biggest Git on his forehead. Harry heard a smothered chuckle come behind him. Harry turned around and all he saw was more snow in the desolate landscape that surrounded him.
"Enough of this playing around Potter." Harry watched in horror as he saw Voldemort turn into a basilisk.
The basilisk Voldemort was hissing to Harry, he was careful enough not to look him in the eyes. Voldemort lunged at Harry, but Voldemort seemed to hit a barrier. Harry watched in horror as the invisibilty cloak slipped off of Draco Malfoy.
Even though he was Draco was bleeding heavily he stood up he was careful not to look the basilisk Voldemort in the eyes. Draco pointed his wand at Voldemort "reducto." "This is for making my life hell you sick maniupilative bastard."
Harry watched as the baskilisk hissed in agony. Harry saw the snake ready to strike again. He looked down at his Phoenix pendant he heard the song of the Phoenix surround him. Harry felt himself transform into a phoenix. As Harry flew up he saw hundreds of fire flashes appear. Phoenixes, were popping in everywhere. Fawkes joined Harry, and let out a trill. There were silver phoenixes, gold phoenixes, and the fire colored ones like Fawkes. Altogether the Phoenixes joined in the battle against Voldemort. Harry joined in the destroying of Voldemort. His eyes were soon blinded. Voldemort screamed and hissed in agony. They were all busy attacking Voldemort wherever there was free space. neither of them noticed Draco had fallen down weakened by the basklisk venom. Harry flew to him, but it was too late Draco was gone. Harry saw a fire flash. the next thing he knew that Fawkes dropped him the Sword of Gryffindor. Harry turned back into himself. The phoenixes backed away from Voldemort.
Harry felt a sense of de ja vu as he swung the sword from the hilt, and impaled Voldemort between the eyes. Harry saw the Voldemort basklisk fall down dead. The corpse burst into flames, and burned to ashes.
A inky foreboding black mist rose from the ashes. Harry watched in amazement as the phoenixes seemed fly in and seemed to swallow the mist. The air was surrounded by the Phoenix song. The Phoenixes trilled in rejoice. The black mist disappeared completely. Harry knew then that Voldemort was truly gone. In burst of flames they disapeared, all except Fawkes. He held his tail feathers to Harry. Harry grabbed Draco's body,and the Sword of Gryffindor. In a flash they were gone.
Meanwhile at Little Hangleton the fighting ceased. The darkness that covered the town seem to lift. The Death Eater's threw their wands to the ground, and surrendered. A great light appeared in the sky, along with Song of the Phoenix. Hearts lifted everywhere, Voldemort was now truly gone. Harry appeared before them in a flash of light clutching a body, and the Sword of Gryffindor.
Harry saw a wave of people comming toward him. He looked for Ginny in the crowd. He found her right in front along with Ron and Hermione. Harry felt a wave of relief to know that were ok. He laid Draco's body gently on the ground, and then banished his body to Hogwarts. With that Harry started to walk towards Ginny and the others.
Authors notes; Wow that took a while to write. I was moving and had a bad case of writer's block. Only one more chapter to go. That will be the epilogue. Thanks for your support, and please remeber to leave a review.
