Chapter 15

Harry walked up to Ron and Tonks. Ron shook his head violently. Voldemort appeared before Harry. "We meet again Harry. How nice to see you won't you and you're friends sit down. At least offer me curteousy." Voldemort said. "I don't know why you think you deserve it you've never shown anyone curtesy before why should you recieve it?" Harry said. "Because when Dumbledore and you are gone and out of my way everyone will want to show me curtesy." "Forced to." Kerri muttered. "Ah who is this Potter you're sister? I have been looking for someone to produce an heir perhaps she can be my mistress." Voldemort said. "Not by my choice." Kerri spat. "Don't touch her." Harry said. "What are you going to do about it Potter?" Voldemort asked with a smirk on his face.

"I think this belongs to you." Harry shoved Oliver and Amber forward. He unhooked them. "I'll trade you your daughter for Ron and Tonks." Harry said. "She means nothing to me. You can keep her she's a nusance and expensive." Voldemort said. "Fine I'll kill her. I have no mercy and I only want to save my own skin." Harry said. "Tough doesn't suit you Harry Potter and I know you're lying. Very well I'll trade one prisoner for my daughter after all you're going to die anyways and I'll be able to do with them as I please after all." Voldemort said in a bored town. "Tonks." Harry said. "Very well you push my daughter forward and I'll push Tonks forward. She is a fine speciman of a woman or so Lucious tells me." Voldemort said. Tonks shuddered underneath his grip and was shoved into Oliver. "You all right?" Oliver asked. He did a spell and a cloak fell over her to keep her warm.

"Now then Harry what are we to do? Two great wizards. We could merge together you know. My offer still stands." Voldemort said. "I become a puppet under your command I don't think so. There will be no negitating not today." Harry told him firmly. "Then wands out Potter." Voldemort said with a cold look in his eye. Harry raised his wand. Kerri kept her hand gripped on her wand. "Avada Ke - "Expellarmus!" Kerri shouted. Voldemort's wand flew a few feet into the air but then he caught it. "Your sister has just entered the contest Potter how long do you think she will last?" A burst of green light came from his wand. Kerri ducked as Oliver went in front of her. Oliver fell to the floor. Kerri watched him fall. She began to tremble but didn't scream. She stayed low on the ground. "Now Potter I will kill your sister or perhaps make her my mistress and then you Potter will die." Voldemort said. "Avada Kedevra!" Harry shouted. A jet of green light came from his wand but Voldemort ducked behind the couch. It hit the couch narrowly missing Ron. The couch disentagrated and Ron fell to the floor with a thump. "Avada - "Stupefy!" Kerri shouted. It missed Voldemort he swung his wand at her. She rolled on the ground past Oliver. Fred jumping in to protect her. "Avada Kedevra!" Harry's face was contorted with rage. The jet of green light hit Voldemort sqaure on the chest. Voldemort fell over backwords. His spirit wrenched from his chest. Harry checked Voldemort's pulse. "Dead." Fred helped Kerri up. Hermione was untying Ron. "Well...Ron you did get us into a bit of a mess this time didn't you." Hermione said. "A bit." Hermione kissed him. "Um guys wand out now." Ron and Hermione pulled apart.

Forty death eaters aparated into the room. "Oh shit." Ron stood up. "Watch you're langauge." Hermione scolded. "Hermione I really don't think they give a damn. Ah..." Ron ducked as a spell singed his robes. A tall woman with black hair and cold eyes was dueling Kerri. Kerri managed to get her off her feet once. The woman fell in a sputtering rage. "Kerri now would be a good time if any to do any illegal spells. Somehow i don't think the Ministry will quite care." Harry shouted. "Crucio!" Kerri shouted. Bellatrix contorted in pain for a good five minutes before the spell broke again. "I'm impressed she said there is a Potter who can do spells. You should have joined our side missy." Bellatrix said. "Why? You're master's dead." Bellatrix let out a wail of anger. "Stupefy. Wow she's out cold." Kerri elbowed the death eater behind her. "Hey sometimes muggle fighting works." She told Fred who was behind the death eater. Fred nodded. They had been fighting a good fifteen minutes when members of the Order of the Phoenix began running up the passage way.

Dumbledore led the way behind him stood Snape, McGonagall, Hagrid, Arthur Weasley, Charlie Weasley, Bill Weasley, Fluer Delacour, Remus Lupin and Mad Eye Moody. It was two Death Eaters per Order member. Kerri and Fred were fighting back to back. A spell hit Bill and left him some scars. Fluer shrieked in rage or horror and killed two death eaters and then went to tend Bill amongst all the fighting. "Dad said they couldn't get her to stay behind." Fred said. Kerri tried to laugh.

Almost a day and a half later the six remaining death eaters gave in. Albus sent Arthur to contact the Minister of Magic Rufous Scridgemour. "Well look at this mess. Remus comfort Tonks and then I want you to organize and contact other Members to tell them what happened and to get a body clean up crew going." Dumbledore said. He walked over to Harry who had his arm around Ginny comforting her. Kerri and Fred stood behind them. Ron was standing next to a still body lying on the floor hardly breathing Hermione. "Fred I want you to take them back to Madam Pomfrey alert any order members in the school get Hermione taken care of." Mad Eye wobbled up to them. "What is it Moody?" Albust asked. "Two of the Weasley's are dead sir. It doesn't look good." Moody growled. "Take them back to the school and get miss Granger to Madam Pomfrey." Albus told Moody. "There will be time for questions later." Moody nodded.

They apparated to the school grounds and walked to the gates at Hogwarts. "Well never a dull year huh?" Kerri asked as the gates swung open to let them in. Ron gave her a look. He was helping Moody carry Hermione up the steps into the castle grounds. Students had their nose pressed against the glass. When they saw Hermione the crowd cleared a path. Prefects called their students to their houses.

Fred stopped Kerri outside of the Hospital wing. "You know I'm still in for a relationship if you are?" Fred asked her. Kerri kissed him. "I'm in." Kerri told him. "All right young lady you know better then to make out with an Order member in the hallway of your school five points will be given to Gryffindor. For your ingenious idea." Fred said. Kerri giggled a little. Fred smiled. "Come on let's get you in so Madam Pomfrey can fuss all over you." Fred said. "Oh no." Kerri walked into the hospital wing. Harry, Hermione, Ginny and Ron were already forced upon hospital beds. Madam Pomfrey was checking Hermione first but she said, "Make no mistake I will be making sure you're all right." Madam Pomfrey said.

Kerri was placed next to Ron who was next to Hermione. They both watched quietly as Madam Pomfrey looked over her finally what seemed like five hours later Madam Pomfrey began checking Ron out. "You're lucky they were hitting you with a stupefy curse and not much worse." Madam Pomfrey said getting out some medicine. "How's Hermione?" Ron asked. "She'll live but she won't be awake for a few more days. Then I can give her her medicine and she shouldn't be doing anything too strenous." Madam Pomfrey gave Ron a knowing look. "When did you two get together?" Harry asked him indingantly. "The same time you got with my sister. She can snog someone as long as it's you." "Ron I'll snog who I please." Ginny said haughtily. "Right now it's Harry." Ginny said. "Right now?" Harry looked crestfallen. Madam Pomfrey began to check that Kerri was all right when Arthur supporting Bill with Fluer on his other side aparated to the hospital wing. Madam Pomfrey bustled over to them and began inspecting Bill. They were followed by Mad Eye and George and Tonks. She came limping in on her own. Mad Eye and George were carrying the body of George's brother Percy who was dead. Ron bowed his head. Ron and Percy had never gotten along and Percy might have been a git but he was still his brother. It would have been far worse had it been one of the twins. Remus and Albus came lifting Charlie Weasley.

Mrs. Weasley who hadn't come yet finally showed. She was miserable and crying. Arthur was trying to comfort her. She ran to Bill and Ron first hugged them and then ran to Charlie and Percy. "We will hold a funeral tomorrow." Albus said as he walked over to Harry. "When?" Harry asked him. "Tomorrow. The wedding celebrations will be after." "What weddings?" Mrs. Weasley sobbed. "Bill and I will still be getting married." Fluer said. "You will but he's scarred?" "Yes and that just shows how brave ze is." Fluer said haughtily. Kerri looked at Ron and they grinned a little. "Hermione's all right sir." "Harry tomorrow I would like to talk to you for now rest. Professor Snape is making a sleeping draught so all of you can get some rest." Dumbledore said kindly. Mrs. Weasley went over to Ginny. They began talking in low voices. Remus was standing in front of Tonks. "Is it all right if I go?" "The Order needs you I need you just come back in one piece all right?" Tonks whispered kissing him. Remus smiled. "All right." Remus and the others aparated. Mrs. Weasley helped Madam Pomfrey make sure everything was organized that night. They made sure they all had the sleeping draught so they could all have a peaceful night.
