Affair of the Heart
Chapter Fourteen
Harry and Draco stood facing Voldemort, about ten Death Eaters surrounding them, all wearing mask so neither Harry or Draco could tell who was holding them captive. Harry wished he still had his words, it was taken off of him after he had been brought in front of Voldemort. Harry had wrapped an arm around Draco's waist protectively. Harry stared at Voldemort, he could feel the prickling in his scar, it wasn't the agonising pain that usually felt when in the presence of Voldemort.
"Well Mr Potter, so glad you could join us on this wonderful day." Voldemort said with a sneering smile.
Harry scowled a little and replied with a sarcastic tone, "Where else would I be, especially when you invited Draco and not me. I feel somewhat insulted that you didn't take the time to try and invite me to this little gathering."
"That was remiss of me, please Mr Potter forgive me." Voldemort gave a dry chuckle.
"Well, I would love to stay, but me and Draco are needed else where at the moment." Harry spoke.
"We have the main event to go through before you leave, you'll be dead by then, but you shall leave." Voldemort hissed slightly. "Now who shall I kill first?" Voldemort threw the question out to those that have gathered.
Cries of Potter and Malfoy were heard, echoing through that large ballroom. There was one voice that called about the others, "My Lord, if you would give me the privilege of killing my traitorous son myself." It was the smooth aristocratic voice of Lucius Malfoy.
"Kill me, I don't care, the Malfoy line will end here, the Malfoy legacy will be split up between Muggle and Wizarding charities. It will all go." Draco smirked, knowing that what he had said would annoy his father.
"Kill Potter first My Lord, let my bastard son watch his so called love die before him." Lucius suggested with a sneer, watching with concealed glee as Draco paled at the words.
"Yes, Mr Potter first, I would prolong your death, but I have had enough of you escaping from me." Voldemort said as he stood up from his throne and walked a little towards the two.
Harry pulled Draco behind him, to protect him. Harry closed his eyes waiting for death to approach him. 'I'm sorry dad, sorry Draco.' Harry thought to himself.
He still had his eyes closed when he heard a giggling voice, 'Hee hee hee Grandma and Grampa, remember them.'
Harry smiled and thought of his father, and his honorary mother. It was only moments later that he heard gasps coming from around the Death Eaters and one from Draco behind him. Harry opened his eyes and before him were the ghostly figures of James and Lily.
"It's time Harry. Focus, focus on those you love, from the past, the present and the future." Lily smiled at the young man.
Harry nodded to her, and as he thought of those to come, like the little girl with one slivery blue eye and one emerald green, time stopped, all movement around Harry and Draco stopped, no death eater moved, not even Voldemort moved. Silver silhouettes appeared around the room, all different shapes and sizes, but one thing apparent, they were human.
The apparitions all gathered closely around Harry and Draco, Lily and James in front of them. Time started again, and the gather, what was now light, rushed forwards surrounding Voldemort.
"It's time my son. Time to end it. You know in your mind what to use." James smiled at the young man his son had become.
Harry closed his eyes for a moment, the spell coming together in his mind. He opened his eyes and raided his hand and held it palm out at the bounded Voldemort. "Preteritus Tendo Posterus Attero Malum Animus(1)" Harry said, the wind around him picked up and lights came through the window, within them everyone could see faces. They rushed towards Voldemort filling him with light.
As more and more gathered around and in him he started to scream, it was a pained scream that seamed to be ripped from his very soul. Suddenly the light fled from him gathering around Harry and Draco as though to protect them. Voldemort stood before them a darkness around him, it bleed out of his very skin, it rushed forward to try and attack Harry and Draco, but the spirits protected the two.
The light gathered in a circle around Voldemort pushing the darkness back, until it was once again part of Voldemort. As one they all rushed to Voldemort. Harry felt his own spirit move from his body and he joined the others.
He was dimly aware of being inside Voldemort, seeing the darkness, blackness of his soul. He felt something in his hand, he looked to it and saw a sword, the sword of Gryfindor. He stepped towards the gathered darkness and sliced it. Harry was thrown back, and back into his own body.
He opened his eyes and the lights were gone, he looked to Voldemort, the Dark Lord was on the floor, lying still and quiet. The doors behind Harry and Draco burst open. It was the Order. The Death Eater's didn't even put up a fight. Severus walked up to Harry and Draco, still standing in the middle of the room.
Severus stopped, his eyes drawn to behind Harry and Draco. "Jimmy." He whispered.
"Hey Sev." James smiled at his old lover.
"How…"
"Will Magic, Harry needed us to fight Voldemort. It's time for us to go." He smiled as he went over to Severus and placed a chilled and misty hand on Severus cheek.
Severus closed his eyes, and only Draco, Harry and James could see the tear slide gently down the cheek with the ghostly hand. "I know, I love you."
James gave Severus a grin and said softly, "I know Sev, love you as well. See you when it's your time. And not a moment before." With that James disappeared.
"Lily, thank you for being a mother to Harry while you could."
"Oh Severus, he was a beautiful baby, he was the one I never could have." Lily smiled and then followed James and disappeared.
"Harry, you have a lot to answer to." Severus said as he looked over to his son, a slight scowl on his face.
"I know dad, but I had to. Your granddaughter wanted me to go, she was the one to tell me about Will Magic, the Snape's family Magic." Harry told his father.
"Granddaughter?" Severus eyes went wide.
"Yes, Harry has been having dreams of a little girl with one silvery blue eye, and one green eye, we think she maybe our daughter." Draco said as he looked at the older wizard, he was in pain and only wanted to go back to Hogwarts and sleep.
"She is the one who helped me to find out how to kill Voldemort." Harry added.
"Well, you are still in trouble, but for now, I think Hogwarts." He said as he held out the portkey and let the two teens touch it, and all three disappeared.
The three had landed in the Hospital Wing of Hogwarts and Draco was quickly treated, with Severus and Harry having to sit through an examination, even though they protested that they were fine.
When news got out parties, and celebrations took place around the British Isles.
(1) the spell Harry uses against Voldemort, Preteritus Tendo Posterus Attero Malum Animus means in latin Past Prest Future Destroy Evil Soul.
Well there you go, I do hope you have enjoyed it, review and tell me what you all think.
