Last Chapter

"This is a really bad idea. Why do I always let him talk me into things like this?" She took a deep breath and followed her friends outside.

Hermione immediately had to duck as a curse flew her way. She rolled out of the way and went straight into Ron.

"Ooof," he moaned, "Watch it."

"Sorry," she muttered sheepishly. She looked around expectantly. "Where's Harry?"

"I'm here." Ron and Hermione spun around.

"Where'd you go?"

"Looking around. Look, the Death Eaters outnumber James's lot five to one and both sides are dropping like flies. I don't think they're going to win this. We need to help them."

"How?" whispered Ron. "There are only three of us." Harry suddenly lunged forwards and pushed his friends to one side.

"STUPEFY," he yelled. Ron and Hermione rolled over on the grass to look behind them. There was a cloaked figure lying on the ground.

"Ooops," muttered Hermione, jumping to her feet. "We should have been paying attention."

"Thanks Harry." Ron stood up.

"Well, I can't think of anything. Can you?" asked Harry. Ron shook his head. Hermione shook her head. Suddenly her eyes lit up and she smiled.

"I do. I read about one in Advanced Defence spells. It's kind of an extension of the Impediment Jinx. It does the same thing except on a much larger scale. If you do it right," Hermione ducked as a curse flew her way. She pointed her wand and cried, "Tarantallegra." Her curse hit a robed figure in the stomach and his legs started dancing wildly out of control. "Petrificus Totalus," she cried again. The person suddenly stopped and his arms and legs snapped to his side and he dropped to the floor like a stone. Hermione gritted her teeth and turned to her friends.

"It won't help much at the moment," said Hermione, "We need to go and..."

"STUPEFY," yelled Ron, and a Death Eater dropped like a stone. Hermione groaned.

"We might as well go and help," she said, running off into the midst of the battle.

"Hermione!" called the two boys. Hermione ignored them. Ron and Harry sprinted off after her, sending spells and curses left and right. Hermione stopped and her friends caught up with her. Hermione smiled as her friends glared at her. She then ran off to help a young witch who was being cornered against the train by six Death Eaters. Harry and Ron looked at each other and then headed off in separate directions: Ron towards a fallen, stunned wizard who was about to be killed, and Harry towards Remus, who was doing quite well on his own but he was about to be overwhelmed.

"STUPEFY, IMPEDIMENTA," cried Hermione. One Death Eater fell stunned, another was blasted backwards. The young witch looked around to see who her rescuer was. She saw Hermione, who motioned for her to use her wand.

"STUPEFY, STUPEFY," the young witch cried. Two of her attackers dropped to the floor.

"IMPEDIMENTA," yelled Hermione. He spell hit one of the two remaining Death Eaters. He flew backwards into his companion. Both went flying and were stopped by a tree with a loud Thump.

Hermione ran over to the young witch to make sure she was alright.

"Thanks. Who are you?" asked the young witch breathlessly.

"Hermione. Are you alright?"

"Sharon. Yes, I'm fine thanks to you." The witch turned and walked and stood over the three prone figures on the ground. She pointed her wand at them and said,

"Dior Siem." A purple light shot out of the end and engulfed the three in a purple light. When it disappeared the three people were gone. All that was left was black, burned grass where the three were laying. Hermione stared at the grass.

"Th–they're gone," she stuttered.

"Remember this Hermione. The only good Death Eater is a dead one. Thanks again." And with that, Sharon took off running, blasting a few Death Eaters out of the way.

"IMPEDIMENTA," bellowed Ron. The spell shot out of his wand and flew straight and true, blasting the man backwards. Ron sprinted over to the fallen wizard. Ron rolled him onto his back and gasped in shock. It was Cedric Diggory. Better not let Harry see him. Merlin knows what he'd do, thought Ron, remembering the Tri-Wizard tournament.

"Enervate," he muttered, pointing his wand at Cedric. Cedric moaned and opened his eyes. He stared at Ron.

"Who are you?"

"Your rescuer," replied Ron, standing up. He held out his hand and Cedric took it, allowing Ron to pull him to his feet.

"Don't let them sneak up STUPEFY," shouted Ron, pushing Cedric to one side "on you," he continued. Cedric nodded.

"I know. Thanks. I'm Cedric." Ron nodded grimly.

"I know." Ron turned and saw Harry skidding up to Lily and James. He saw Harry fall and sprinted over, thinking his friends had been hit.

"IMPEDIMENTA, STUPEFY," bellowed Harry. The two spells hit their targets. Remus looked to see where his help was coming from. He saw Harry and grinned. Harry hurried over, yelling "STUPEFY" and "IMPEDIMENTA," and pointing his wand randomly.

Harry stopped and said,

"You ok Remus?" Remus nodded.

"Thanks Harry. I think you saved me, but others need help now." Remus pointed at something behind Harry. Harry turned and saw Lily standing over and protecting a stunned James.

Harry turned back to Remus.

"Will you be alright?"

"Yes. Now go and help them.

"STUPEFY, STUPEFY, STUPEFY," yelled Harry, the spells flying towards Lily and James at an alarming rate. Lily jumped as three Death Eaters in front of her fell to the floor with a loud bump. She spun around and her eyes widened as she saw Harry sprinting towards her, his wand outstretched. Lily pointed her wand at Harry, her mouth opening to send a spell to stop him.

"Imped.." Lily's eyes glazed over and she slumped to the ground like a stone. Harry pointed his wand at a Death Eater he recognized. Bellatrix Lestrange. Harry felt the anger rising inside him. He had to fight hard to control himself. He couldn't lose it. Not now. People's lives were at stake and not just his own.

"IMPEDIMENTA," bellowed Harry. Bellatrix was blasted backwards, landing on two of her comrades, who didn't look very happy.

Harry skidded to a stop and fell to the floor next to James and Lily.

Harry placed his wand to James' head and muttered, "Enervate." James's eyes flickered open and he sat groggily up.

"Wha–," he mumbled.

"Harry, you alright?" Harry looked up and saw Ron standing there. Ron held out his hand and pulled Harry to his feet.

"Yeah. They managed to get themselves stunned." Harry turned and pointed his wand at Lily. A look of fear crossed James' face. "Enervate." James relaxed and Lily's eyes flickered open. She gazed up at Harry and saw his wand pointed at her. She didn't say anything, she just stared at him. Harry stared back. A sense of calm enveloped Harry. He became aware of nothing around him except for Lily. Harry noticed that e really did have Lily's eyes.

"Duck," yelled Ron, pushing Harry to the ground. The calm was shattered. A jet of green light flew past where Harry's head had just been.

"Okay, that does it," said Harry irritably. "STUPEFY." A Death Eater went down. It had blonde hair. It looked like Lucius Malfoy. "IMPEDIMENTA." A Death Eater sailed backwards through the air. "STUPEFY, IMPEDIMENTA, STUPEFY, STUPEFY." Harry was sending curses everywhere, dropping people where they stood. Ron quickly followed suit, although he only used the stunning spell. He was sending stunners so quickly that it looked like a stream of red light was coming out of his wand.

By now James and Lily were able to stand up. James hissed into Harry's ear, "What are you doing?"

"Helping STUPEFY you." Harry shoved James out of the way as a stunner flew up from behind. "What does IMPEDIMENTA it look like?" Harry turned and glared at James. "Now do you believe us? Ron, where's Hermione?"

Ron shrugged, "STUPEFY. We better find her." Without a backwards glance at the two Potter's, Harry and Ron dashed off to find their friend. James and Lily stared after them before a green light passing a hairs breadth from Lily's arm brought them back to reality. They turned back to back and started sending spells in every direction.

Harry's eyes darted wildly about looking for Hermione. He saw her fall to the ground.

"IMPEDIMENTA," he yelled. Ron looked over at where Harry's curse went. He saw Hermione on the ground and was suddenly furious. He didn't know why.

"STUPEFY, STUPEFY," shouted Ron. His spells hit two advancing Death Eaters. The way to Hermione was clear. Ron sprinted towards his fallen friend with Harry close behind.

"Revive her," said Harry quickly. Ron dropped to the floor as Harry started shouting curses, some of which Ron didn't even know Harry knew.

"Enervate," muttered Ron. Hermione's eyes flew open and she sat straight up. She smiled at Ron.

"Thanks." Ron grinned, his face turning a deep shade of scarlet. Ron suddenly remembered something Hermione had said earlier. "What was your spell idea?"

Hermione looked confused for a moment and then smiled in recognition. Ron jumped as a red light flew past his ear. He spun around and shot a stunner in the general direction the red light came from.

"Hermione, hurry please."

Ron turned back to Hermione and made a big show of making sure she was all right.

"Hermione!" said Harry urgently. Hermione and Ron looked up at Harry. Harry glared at them both. Ron blushed and looked at his feet, Hermione smiled.

"Right, you two have to help."

"Ron help me," muttered Harry. "Hermione, tell us what to do."

Hermione began talking as Ron stood up and started firing spells in all directions. The field was littered with many bodies. Both sides had suffered heavy casualties. Most of the adults were using spells and curses that would kill.

"Point your wand at the Death Eaters and picture only them in your mind. Then wave your wand like this," Hermione wiggled her wand in a complex pattern, "and say Impedimenus." Harry looked at Hermione, raising his eyebrows at the incantation.

"STUPEFY," shouted a loud voice behind the three friends. Harry spun around. "Protego," he said calmly, waving his wand in front of him. This was one spell that Harry knew very well. The stunner bounced harmlessly off his shield and rebounded onto its caster. She collapsed in a heap.

Pain shot through Harry's scar.

"Arrggghh," he cried out, his hand flying up to his forehead.

"Harry, what is it? Are you hit?" asked Hermione from the floor. Harry shook his head.

"V–Voldemort," he choked out. "H–he's here." The pain in his scar disappeared as quickly as it had come.

"Now, you two!" cried Hermione.

"IMPEDIMENUS," bellowed three voices. A loud Bang emitted from the three wands followed by a jet of bright blue light. Ron, Harry and Hermione were blasted backwards by the force of the spell. They flew ten feet into the air and then fell to the ground with a loud thump. Ron and Hermione were unconscious as soon as they hit the ground. Neither saw the effects of the spell. Harry hit the ground, hard, but unfortunately for him, he stayed conscious. Harry gingerly touched his chest. It felt as if several of his ribs had broken. Harry lay on the ground trying hard not to cry out with pain. He was in too much pain to move so he didn't see if the spell worked either. Harry's vision suddenly darkened as if someone was standing over him. Before either could say anything, blissful, painless darkness enveloped Harry and he remembered no more.
