Chapter 16

Severus Dropped the clothes he had just picked up, he had just went to give them to Lily, because Harry had made a mess of his clothes feeding. Hissing he said in between gritted teeth, "I have to go, please look after them" said Severus. He summoned his potions kit in case he needed it; if there was a chance Jade was alive, he was going to use that chance.

Apparating he found himself in the cell he had been in earlier. He looked down saw Jade was a mess and far to white for his liking. Saw the dead form of Crabbe and a pissed Nathan and on the boarder of fury Voldemort.

"My Lord?" asked Severus bowing.

"Heal her," hissed Voldemort.

"Yes, my Lord" said Severus. Getting his potions bag out, he pulled out the potions he needed. Thankful when his hands did not shake pouring potion after potion down her throat. It took a while before she was fine enough to come back from unconsciousness.

Blinking she wondered what had happened, then it all came back to her. She had saved her children and they were Severus' she knew she could not act happy other wise Voldemort would find out.

"Where is my baby?" she screeched. "Where is it!" she yelled panicked.

"It's gone," hissed Voldemort angrily.

"What? What do you mean gone? Please let me see him or her before you kill me please just once" choked Jade.

"It's dead you stupid slut" hissed Nathan.

"No! No, no, no, no, no" said jade curing into a ball. Inside rejoicing her acting skills.

"What will I do with her now my Lord?" asked Nathan.

"Keep it! You need an heir," said Voldemort.

Severus had to stop himself from throttling the Dark Lord, for calling the one, he loved it. As if she was just a stupid dog, to him she was far from anything like that. He loved her, and he hated the face he could not save her from either men. He felt weak and small for not being able to defend Jade or help her in any way.

Jade had of course heard everything, then something inside broke in her. She was not going to let Voldemort kill his parents. Or her sister, he was confusing himself sometimes. It did not really matter he was going to kill Voldemort or die trying. He did not want his children growing up in a world were they would be brought up in an orphanage. No, he was going to end the sorry excuse of a man's life and make sure Severus survived the war to bring up his children. His parents would not die and everything would be fine. If the price to pay for everyone's happiness, the people he love's happiness then so be it. He would die a thousand times over for each and every one of them. Especially his mother sister 'oh stuff it!' thought Harry trying to sort out his memories.

He felt himself dragged by the hair before forced to stand in the circle. She was not healed properly and unless she saw, a nurse god knows what could happen. She already had an infection, she could feel it. She closed her eyes and prayed against hope that this would work, so he could end this madness that was destroying peace in the wizarding world.

"...then we will take over the wizarding world and use it as we see fit!" yelled Voldemort.

And all Harry could think was 'It's now or Never' knowing he didn't need a wand he lifted his arm and yelled the two words he knew one day he would have to utter. Because of the divinations stupid prediction. The same spell that had killed his mother and father, killed Barty Couch's spider and Cedric Diggory and the one that had marked him as Voldemort's equal. One that had destroyed Voldemort's body, one that had killed every witch and wizard forever that had refused to kill him. The killing curse that would now never be uttered by Voldemort again.

"Avada Kedarva!" he yelled. Watching in awe as the spell gathered around his arm. Everyone stood stock still in awe as they watched the wandless killing curse sprout from Jade Avery's hand.

Watched in frozen fear and shock as it hit their Master, who for the first time they could remember had fear written all over his face. The shock anger and awe stayed until the wizard slumped down, dead to the world. Only then did the Death Eaters find they could move.

Severus had watched the whole thing, unable to believe that the man was dead. Believing every second that he was going to get up and kill Jade. Only seeing Nathan Nott's wand pointed at Jade brought him out of his shocked state.

"Avada Kedarva!" yelled Severus. Watching in satisfaction as the spell hit Nathan straight in the back. Jade watching wide eyed as he fell. But there was no horror or sadness that he had killed Nathan. Those weary green eyes showed nothing, just then the place filled with Order members and Aurors. Severus removed his Death Eater stuff and walked over to Dumbledore. Jade passed out, and Auror gruffly caught her before putting magical restraints on her and she was shipped of to Azkaban everyone in there that day was sentenced to Azkaban without trial. And the dead were buried in their manor's grounds.

And there was peace once again in the magical world.

"And Jade killed him with a wandless Killing curse! She was never a Death Eater please get her out of there! She does not deserve it!" finished Severus. Having explained to the whole Order what had happened between Jade and him.

"You have three children in you manor?" asked Molly. She could hardly watch the twins never mind three.

"Yes, the elves are watching them" said Severus.

"What did you name them?" asked Hiesta.

"Alexander, Sebastian and Heather- Jade" said Severus.

"Nice names" she replied. The others all nodding.

"Albus please get her out of there" said Severus. Dumbledore looked at the boy he loved like a son. Could he risk it? Could he risk letting a Death Eater Rome the wizarding world? She could after all have killed Voldemort to take his place. But realised that everything Severus had done, he owed it to him to try. If it were not for Severus then they would not have been able to save even as half as much people they had managed to save.

"Ok Severus, I will see what I can do." said Dumbledore.

But Crouch refused to budge; he had changed when his son had been taken to Azkaban. He hated Death Eaters all the more and tried to get them kissed by the dementors but there were people who would not have it.

Months had gone by now. Nothing changed, Severus brought up his children. He got on well with the Order members, having children made him want to. Of course being an only parent was difficult. He had to feed three children at night change their nappies and get them all to sleep. Without the other wakening up and screaming wakening the other two up.

He had visited Hogwarts the children could by now lift there head and crawl. He went there to visit. The children all crowded around the babies and cooed at them. Severus did not mind, it gave him time to eat his breakfast in peace and plan on getting Jade from that bloody prison with Albus. Opening the newspaper an unexpected sight met him causing him to gasp.

One Death Eater Down the rest to go! Were the headlines.

Last night, unknown circumstances Jade Avery died in Azkaban prison. All Crouch had to say was this 'one Death Eater down! The rest to go!'

The public agreed, but some think they should have trials. Including one Albus Dumbledore who had said Earlier on this month.

'Any Death Eater could be innocent they were not given trial or a chance! There is always room in everyone's heart for a second chance." that was all Dumbledore had to say.

Well known Death Eater Spy for light side Severus Snape had also been demanding Jade Avery given a trial but all talks of reason was ignored. As the Minister just did not listen to anyone.

It is well known that Barty Crouch's son was found out to be a Death Eater, and found at the scene of the crime. Doubled with the death of his wife, I think the Minister had gone mentally unstable. I think it's time to get a new Minister of Magic.

This report personally knew Jade Avery, and thought she would never have joined the Death Eaters on her own free will. Rest in Peace Jade we will miss you
