Secret Rose

Chapter Twelve

A Battle and a Reunion

The students and teachers rushed out to the battlefield. They gazed onward to see at least two hundred Death Eaters and around 50 chiropterans. They had their work cut out for them. You could easily see where the barrier was because it was a bright purple color and it pulsated with magical energy. The Death Eaters that were let in thought that they had fought their way in on their own strength, so they didn't suspect that they had been allowed in just to meet their demise.

"Kai! Take this." David yelled at Kai while throwing a gun and bullets to Kai, Julia, and Lewis.

"What is this? I haven't seen bullets like this before."

"They're bullets for chiropterans. Each has just enough of Saya's blood to take one down. Make sure to use it only on them. The best place to shoot them would be the forehead or heart. Be careful out there. Julia, here. You don't have a regular gun. Use this on Death Eaters. They won't be expecting muggle weaponry," he told Julia while throwing her another gun and bullets.

A couple of students had been watching the exchange, fascinated with the guns. "Go! This is no time to stand there gawking!" Harry yelled at them. Just like that, they dispersed and got lost in the sea of magical spells.

"Harry, Ron, and Hermione! You three stay with us. Voldemort's after Harry and Diva's after me. It's best if we stick together. We're the only ones that can beat them. You protect us from Death Eaters, and we'll take care of the chiropterans." Saya instructed. The Golden Trio nodded.

Saya and Haji joined the frenzy. Haji handed Saya her sword and as soon as it was in her hands, she loaded it up with the most dangerous weapon known to chiropteran kind. Her blood.

They dashed forward, Haji throwing his knives and Saya slashing away at the brown monsters, eyes as red as the blood that was killing them. She had never been this good at killing them. Was it because of the sheer number of them that she wasn't wasting time? Or was it because that she knew? She knew that she was the only thing stopping the blood sucking beasts from killing an overwhelming amount of innocent school children.

They continued their destructive dance. Haji would distract them while Saya went in for the kill, effectively ending the lives of the used-to-be-human monsters.

Just a little farther from them was the Golden Trio. They were part of a destructive dance as well. Theirs was different however. Instead of blood and swords, it was a dance of wands and magic. A dance of things told in children's fairy tales. A third of the Death Eaters were focused solely on them. They stood back to back in a triangle, defending from all sides, and attacking without hesitation.

Despite the Death Eaters numbers, the tides of battle had turned in their favor. Just like Saya, they had never been this good at fighting. They also knew that a lot was riding on them, mainly Harry. Ron and Hermione weren't going to let him go through this alone. They had his back and he knew it. As much as he didn't want to drag them into this, he was still extremely thankful that they were with him.

"Harry! Watch out!" he heard Saya yell as he turned and saw a chiropteran holding its right arm up getting ready to slash all three of them. He prepared himself for the impact but it never came. Instead he heard a pain filled whimper. He opened his eyes and saw Saya standing there with her arms held out protecting him and his friends.

"You okay?" she asked, her voice a little above a whisper.

"Yeah, we're fine." Hermione said.

Saya refilled her sword with blood and turned to slash the creature. When she did, the trio noticed the deep gashes on her back that were oozing blood. The three gasped while Saya cut the beast in half.

"Saya! Are you okay? Oh my God!" Ron yelled.

"I'm fine. Now get back to the Death Eaters. They won't stand stunned for long." Saya replied and then ran off to rejoin Haji while Harry, Ron, and Hermione went back to the Death Eaters.

"Sectumsempra!" Harry yelled, successfully hitting three Death Eaters with the spell. With that, they were still dueling only about eight death eaters. He looked around and saw that there were only about fifty Death Eaters and about 15 chiropterans. Harry momentarily thought that they had this battle in the bag. Then he realized something. This was only the beginning. Who knew how many Death Eaters were with Voldemort and how many chiropterans were with Diva. This fight wasn't over yet.

Soon enough, the Death Eater and chiropteran forces dwindled down to one or two of each. Saya stabbed and slashed the last two while the students and teachers simultaneously attacked the two Death Eaters.

A cheer rang through the crowd. "We did it!" someone yelled. That was when Saya stepped forward.

"No, we haven't. There's still Voldemort and Diva to deal with. Who knows how many they have with them. Voldemort will have his most powerful Death Eaters with him and Diva will have chiropterans. Not to mention her four chevalier who are ten times more powerful than the chiropterans. This battle is far from over. Let's take this time to heal the wounded and rest. Then we'll march to the real battle." Saya said.

Another cheer rang through the crowd. Surprisingly, not many of the "Good guys" were injured. Pomfrey and Julia tended to everyone and shortly after, they were ready to face the real challenge. Diva and Voldemort were going down.

The Hogwarts force marched through the field towards the forbidden forest. There was a clearing there where they knew Voldemort and Diva would be. Not only did they have students and teachers, but others had joined the battle. Grawp joined along with the centaurs who had made it clear that they were only helping because "Those wretched humans had invaded their territory".

Saya, Haji, Kai, Riku, David, Lewis, Julia, Harry, Ron, Hermione, and Professor McGonagall led the charge. Mad-Eye, Lupin, Tonks, and the rest of the Order protected the rear. They walked through the trees into the clearing.

There was about ten Death Eaters who were easily recognized as Bellatrix Lestrange, Lucius Malfoy, Fenrir Greyback, Crabbe and Goyle's parents among others. There weren't any chiropterans surprisingly. However, James, Solomon, Nathan, and Amshel were there. Nathan was holding a basket that had two little cocoons in them.

Sitting in a chair in the middle of them was Voldemort. His demonic red eyes were watching them all. What surprised them was Diva. She had on a long white and blue dress. She was standing behind Voldemort and leaning over, her arms wrapped around his neck and her head resting on his shoulder with a smile playing on her lips. She was holding him like a lover would and it was obvious that Bellatrix was not happy about it. She looked at Saya with her deep blue eyes and her smile grew wider. She whispered something into Voldemort's ear, her eyes never leaving Saya's. Voldemort abruptly stood up and held out his arms.

"Ahh, Harry. It's so nice to see you again. And Saya too. It's so nice to finally meet you. I've heard a lot about you from your sister. Why don't you join us? Both of you. We could remake the world in our image. You could both be a part of it. Imagine it. Wizards and chiropterans being the dominant force in the world."

"Never!" Harry spat at him. Saya nodded her head in agreement.

Voldemort frowned. "Such a pity. Seems I'll have to get rid of you then Harry. I'll leave Saya to Diva for a nice little family reunion."

He drew out his wand and pointed it at Harry. Harry did the same.

The two wizard's dance began. Each cast spells at one another, the colors colliding. Voldemort opened his mouth and a giant fire dragon came out, flying straight towards Harry. Harry twirled his wand and a sea serpent made of water snaked it's way to the dragon, the two forces colliding and battling. Finally, the two disappeared. Harry smirked and Voldemort's eyes grew wide in rage.

"Avada Kedavra!"

"Expelliarmus!"

Blue and green collided and battled for dominance for a moment before something incredible happened. The green was sent flying straight back to Voldemort.

"NOOO!" came the blood curdling scream from the most powerful dark wizard the world had seen. And then it hit him. In the next second, Voldemort's cold body hit the ground with a thud that resounded through the entire crowd. All was quiet for a second, before an overwhelmingly loud cheer rang through the crowd.

Bellatrix ran forward, her wand held high above her head. Her eyes were filled with killing intent. She had lost it.

"Ava-" she began, but was cut off as suddenly ropes appeared around her and the rest of the Death Eaters. No matter how hard they tried, they couldn't rid themselves of them.

"Oh just shut up." Hermione said. The crowd cheered again for what seemed like the tenth time today.

"Hold on! This isn't over yet! Diva's still standing along with her chiropterans." David yelled to the crowd which then immediately became hushed.

Saya and Diva stepped forward. This was it. It was time.

Saya and Diva drew their swords in sync.

"Diva. Please. We don't have to do this. You can come back to Okinawa with us. We can be an actual family. Think about your babies. You don't want them to be born into the world like this."

Diva's expression turned cold. "You don't understand Saya. You got to grow up like a normal human. While you were enjoying the world, I was stuck in that tower. You have no idea what it was like there. I saw the things that humans do to those who are weaker than them. That's why I can't do that sister dear. Don't you see I'm doing this for my babies?"

Solomon stepped forward also. "Diva, think about it. You and Saya can be an actual family. Your babies can grow up in a real family."

"Solomon, I've made up my mind. Stay out of my way."

"I can't hurt Saya. You know that. You know that I love her. I refuse to fight her."

James stepped forward to face Solomon. "Solomon, if you leave Diva for Saya, I'll have to kill you."

"You know you can't James."

James transformed into his chiropteran form along with Solomon. He launched himself at Solomon, slashing at him. Trying to end his life. The students watched in horror at the two monsters fighting. It was power like they hadn't seen before.

Diva smiled. "Don't worry about them. Just a little family quarrel. Saya, get changed. I won't fight you until you wear this."

Diva threw something at Saya who was about 50 feet from her. Saya picked it up and looked at it. No one but Haji could see what it was. She smiled a pained smile. She walked into the trees to change and not even a minute later, she came back out.

Saya was wearing her long pink dress that she used to wear at the zoo. She turned to Diva.

"I can't believe you had this. I haven't seen this in over a hundred years. I left it at the zoo the night you killed Joel and everyone else."

"Come Saya. Let's end this." Diva said drawing her sword.

"Fine." came the reply as Saya drew her sword as well, her eyes turning blood red.

The two sisters leaped at each other, their swords clashing in mid air. They twirled and ducked and dodged, each trying to slice the other one first. Neither hesitated, both knowing that if they did, they would be finished. Both sisters were fighting for a purpose. For family. For the world they wanted. For their dreams of the future.

Diva filled her sword up with her blood and attacked. However Saya anticipated this and blocked it. Saya managed to slip past Diva's defenses and stab her in the stomach.

Diva smiled. "You forgot your blood sister dear."

Diva grabbed Saya's sword so she couldn't escape and plunged her own sword into Saya's back, filled with her blood.

"SAYA!" Haji yelled, louder than anybody could ever think he could be. Diva backed away as Haji came running towards Saya.

"Haji…"

"I'm here Saya."

"Haji… I think I'm okay." Saya said softly.

"What?"

"I said I think I'm okay."

Haji looked at her back and sure enough, it was already healing.

"Thank God." Haji said and kissed the top of Saya's head.

"Amshel. What's going on? Why isn't Saya dead?" Diva asked.

Instead of Amshel, Nathan answered. "When you became pregnant, your blood lost it's potency. You can't kill Saya with your blood."

"What? Why didn't you tell me this before?" Diva screeched.

"Diva, did you honestly want to kill your sister? I saw your face during that entire battle. It was one of pain and suffering. You know you want a family like Saya. That's all you've ever wanted. I know that's what your mother wanted too."

Diva looked down, her hair covering her eyes. There was silence for a minute before she looked up again, tears silently steaming down her face.

"Diva…" Saya said, her voice showing sadness and sympathy for her sister.

"Maybe you're right. Maybe that's what I want."

Saya stood up and walked over to her sister. "Diva, please. Come back to Okinawa. Your sleep's coming up too. You could go there with me. Your chevalier could come too. And the babies. We could give them a real home. A real family." Saya grasped her sister's hand and smiled softly.

"My babies… You're right Saya. I don't want them to grow up like we did. They deserve better."

At that moment, everyone heard cracking followed by the sound of crying. Diva went wide-eyed.

"My babies. They're awake now."

Diva and Saya ran over to the babies. They each picked one up and held it in their arms. Saya held the little girl with red eyes and Diva held the little girl with blue eyes.

"Two more queens." Nathan said smiling.

"What are you going to name them, Diva?" Saya asked.

"I'll name this one Mizuki."

"What about this one?"

"How about Miyuki?"

"What do those names mean?" Harry asked.

"Mizuki is beautiful moon in Japanese and Miyuki means beautiful snow."

"They're good names."

Both sisters held a baby in one arm and held their sister's hand with the other.

"Let's go home Diva."

Authors Note: I told you there was a twist! I like Diva. I just think that she was misunderstood and hurt. Spoiler Alert for HP! I also didn't want George to lose an ear or Fred, Tonk, Lupin, Mad-Eye, and Hedwig to die. I dislike J.K. Rowling for that. Anyways, continue on to the epilogue!
