When they got to Hogwarts they went to the headmaster's office and saw Sirius pacing and looking worried sick, Remus, Dumbledore, The Ministry and the Order.
"Professor Dumbledore?"
They all snapped out of it and saw Snape and Harry standing there smiling. Dumbledore noticed a second and familiar wand, Voldemort's.
"HARRY!" Sirius and Remus yelled running to him and giving him a hug.
"Hey guys. I did it, after barley a year this war is done. My job is done, hopefully I don't have anymore work to do beside school for a bit." he said sounding tired.
"Why don't you go to the hospital wing and get some rest?" Dumbledore said.
He nodded and looked at the minister.
"I told you people he was back, now he's gone."
Then he headed downstairs. When he got there he went and laid down on his bed ready to pass out. He put the blankets on him, said good night to Sirius and Remus and fell asleep. The two marauders sat down smiling.
"James and Lily would be so proud of him." Remus whispered.
Sirius nodded.
"I'm really proud of him to."
Meanwhile in Dumbledore's office, "I can't believe he won. After only two years it's done." Fudge said.
"I know. He lost to a sixteen year old." Tonks said.
"How did he do it Severus?" McGonagall asked.
"Prior incantantem. They have the same cores. He gave himself in to take care of the horcrux in him." he said.
Everyone went quiet for a minute.
"Well, let's get the Daily Prophet done now and het it over with." Dumbledore said.
Everyone else agreed.
While they did that some people were confused about what was going on. Sirius had Remus get Ron and Hermione and tell them what happened.
After he told them everything he could they rushed to the hospital wing and saw him fast asleep.
"Is he OK?" Hermione asked worried.
"He's fine, don't worry." Remus said.
A few hours later Harry woke up and slowly sat up.
"Hi guys." he said still half asleep.
"This feels like the day after a full moon."
They started to laugh a little. And then left Harry alone to get some more well deserved rest.
The next day the daily prophet appeared and everyone was glad it said what they had wanted since day one.
You-know-who gone for good!
The second war is over thanks to Harry Potter for a second time in only fifteen years. Since his first year at Hogwarts he's helped us a lot. We owe him lifelong dept. for risking his life and saving us. 'His parents would be very proud of him like the rest of his friends and family. I am.' Albus Dumbledore says. Now we can all finish school and our lives safely.
While they read the paper Harry was turning red. The rest of his friends were laughing at him for turning so red.
"Oh come on Harry, just say it, your fame got even bigger and will never change." Neville said.
The rest of his house agreed.
"You should be used to it by now after six years Moony." Hermione said.
"Oh for god sake! I hate the fame. You guys can have it if you want. I'm not used to having friends. Remember what I told you last year? I swear if Sirius hadn't gotten custody of me last year I would've lost it!" he said.
"Well, good thing he was set clear, don't you think Howler?" Hermione asked.
"I agree with you Speedy. I certainly agree."
"Why do you guys call each other those names?" Neville asked.
"Yeah, we've heard you say that for months and never told us why." Seamus said.
"We copied the Marauders, a group of four from my James, Sirius, Remus and Peter when they were at school. The difference is we don't get in a lot of trouble from making tricks." Hermione said.
"I'm Howler because I got a howler second year." Ron said.
"You can say that again. That thing killed my ears for the next hour!" Dean said.
Everyone burst out laughing harder than before. A few minutes later they calmed down enough to finish the list.
"I'm Moony because I look at the stars a lot." Harry said.
'Actually it's a repeat of the Marauders.'
"I'm Speedy because I learn things really quickly." Hermione said.
"Our team name is The Golden Group because we're in Gryffindor. And Gryffindor is gold and red. Ron's already the red part." Harry said.
"Yeah I'm the red p- hey!" Ron said.
Once again the house started laughing. As the year went on it was different than the beginning. Harry got more famous after killing Voldemort. They stuck with the DA for the rest of it, his friends still help him on his full moons.
Gryffindor won the quidditch cup for the sixth year in a row and the house cup for the third time. When they were done for the year it was going to be hard for him to get used to his new life without Voldemort and more fame. But just like on full moons, he'll have his friends and family to help him.
