The End
Chapter 1
Harry had been hunting the horcruxes for months, almost a year, in fact. Only two parts of Voldemort remained, one in him and one in Nagini, his snake. Unfortunately, Voldemort takes that snake with him everywhere.
All of this hasn't happened without casualties, however. Harry rolled over in his bed at Grimmauld Place and went through the list one more time. Tonks, Percy, McGonagal, Hagrid, and Mad-eye- all dead. Lupin, Bill, and Mr. Weasley are all currently in St. Mungo's. Everyone in the order had been in and out of there so often they are thinking about putting up another floor just for order members. Harry was glad there weren't more deaths or serious injuries, but he wasn't counting the dozens of muggles or the dead and injured wizards that weren't in the order.
Harry wasn't sure what to do next. He didn't know where to find either the snake or Voldemort, however they were probably together. And besides that Harry didn't know if he was ready to face Voldemort, wasn't sure if he could win, and Harry wasn't to keen to find out any faster.
Harry did know that Voldemort ahd given up on going directly for Harry. He was just too well protected, no one other than Voldemort himself could get anywhere near the boy and Voldemort had other things to do. So, he was going in a round about way. He was cutting Harry off, going for his friends, his family.
His family…
Harry gasped. He knew where Voldemort would go next. The one place he could get to that would draw Harry to him.
But am I ready? Harry didn't know. He was scared. Yes, he had learned a lot in the past year, but was it enough? Voldemort is strong, and has over fifty years on Harry, who is only 17.
What am I thinking? I may not like them but I can't just let them die, at least not without a fight. Harry sat up in bed, and looked at his watch. It was 12:30 am. His mind was still whirling around in circles as he got up. What about Ron and Hermione? Should I tell them? Should I take them with me? Of course I should! If I learned anything this year it is that I need help! So Ron and Hermione are coming too, if they want. Well, at least, one way or another, this will be the last night. And with that he went to go ask Ron and Hermione if they would help him.
It only took Harry five minutes to get Ron and Hermione up and ready to go. They weren't going to let him go alone. They agreed that he would need all the help he could get.
