Chapter 17
Fight (Part 1)
Everyone stared at Harry. He was too busy studying the Marauder's map to take in their reactions. Death Eaters were surrounding the school, and it looked about to be the entire Death Eater army. They were seriously out numbered. Charlie, Marlene, and him could take on about five people at a time, but he wasn't sure about everyone else. Those three could only take out so many people in such a certain amount of time.
"Harry, is that you?" This caused Harry to look up to see Mrs. Weasley staring at him. It was her who spoke. Harry frowned.
"You should be talking to Charlie, not me. I'm going to be dying for real before this battle is over, so don't get used to seeing me breathing. Lets see, Voldemort's being covered by the top five death eaters and Percy Weasley. Charlie, I'm sorry, but I'm going to have to kill your brother." Harry said, looking up. Charlie nodded.
"Unfortunate, but necessary. Besides, didn't we tell him that if we saw him again, we'd cut of his balls and feed them to him?" Charlie asked, frowning.
"That was my threat I believe. A down right pig, Percy is." Marlene sniffed. "Trying to rape me." She sounded so stuck up for a moment there that Harry rolled up the map and thumped her across the head multiple times.
"Eyes on the prize, bitch!" Harry growled.
"Hey! Leave my little sister alone!" Severus growled. Harry, Charlie, and Marlene stared at him for a minute, before shaking their heads and going back to studying. Everyone was still staring at them.
"Alright, Marlene, you take about half of everyone here to cover this side of the castle and Charlie, you take one fourth of everyone here to cover this side of the castle. Every one left will cover the inside of the castle." Harry said, pointing everything out. Harry took the map and slapped it into Molly Weasley's chest. "You use this map to keep everyone posted on what the death eaters are doing. I have something else I need to do." He then disappeared into thin air.
"Charlie Weasley, you are in so much trouble!" Mrs. Weasley had finally snapped out of it. "You are so grounded! Come back here! Don't you run away from me!" Molly chased after her son, who was trying to run out of the room, herding about one fourth of the people room out so he could escape his mother's wrath.
"Marlene, we will discuss this after the fight is over. But mom's not going to be pleased." Severus warned his younger sister with a happy tone about her being punished. She scowled at him.
"Shut up, Severus! I'm going to tell mum you're a death eater!" She retaliated.
"She already knows I'm spying, little sister." Severus informed her before leaving. She stamped her foot angrily and then herded about half of the people out of the room. The remainding people went to go protect the castle. This was one shocking day.
Harry went to Moaning Mertle's bathroom. He knew that this was where Voldemort was heading. He sat in the sink, waiting. Moaning Mertle didn't disturb him. She was off with the rest of the ghosts of the castle to protect Hogwarts from Voldemort. Inwardly, Harry was laughing at himself. On his way up here, instead of coming up with different ways to kill Voldemort, he was thanking merlin that Voldemort attacked after finals so all of his months of hard work to make up the finals wasn't wasted.
He saw a shadow cross in front of the door and then saw the death eater. He whispered "Avada Kedavra" and the death eater fell to the floor dead. He waited and finally, someone jumped out and stared in shock. "Avada Kedavra." Harry whispered again, killing another death eater. Hell, this was easy. He liked this. It was like target practice. The target jumped out at you and stayed nice and still for you so you can destroy it.
Two death eaters jumped in front of the door, both of them Harry recognized. Percy Weasley and Lucius Malfoy. It wasn't commonly known, but Percy was Lucius's lover. Harry, Charlie, and Marlene had found out after a few hours of legimens on Percy. All three had vomited from the sight of Lucius's dick and even more so when they accidentally saw Voldemort's.
"Harry Potter!" Lucius yelled in surprise. Harry killed both of them and waited. One more death eater and Voldemort left to kill. The element of surprise on them was no longer available. His target practice was over now.
"Come on out now, you two. I know you're there. I know that Voldemort had five body guards, and the last one happened to be Peter Pettigrew. I won't kill you. I actually wanted to speak with the two of you. It's always nice to trade pleasantries with one's enemy before death." A soft, hissing chuckle came from the doorway and Peter walked through first, shielding his master, Lord Voldemort.
"Mr. Potter. It's been such a long time since I last saw you. I believe it was after the god mutt died?" Voldemort asked. Harry cocked his head at Voldemort in amusement.
"You've been talking to Severus. He and Sirius never did get along. Tom, I wanted to know, why did you pick me over the Longbottoms? I mean, I would think you would have thought them to be far easier to kill than my parents. I always thought that you went after the easy kill." Harry said in a bored tone. Voldemort laughed again in that weird hissing sound.
"Mr. Potter, did it never occur to you that perhaps I did go after the easier kill? Your parents were so much weaker than the Longbottoms. The only reason why they lived as long as they did was because I granted it. They made me pity them because they were so weak." Voldemort explained. "Now tell me Mr. Potter, how did you force everyone to believe that you were dead? I was positive that you were dead because that fool Dumbledore even believed that you were dead and I was sure that had it been a ploy to make me believe that you were dead, that Dumbledore would have been in on it." Voldemort hissed. Harry chuckled.
"That's why Dumbledore couldn't know. Because if he knew, then you would in turn know. You know, I always did wonder how you did it. How was it that when we were at the ministry, how was it that you managed to be in two places at the same time?" Harry asked softly. Pettegrew was confused, looking around wildly.
"Oh, so you figured out my little secret?" Voldemort asked. Harry smiled.
"Yes, I did, and so did the master of fighting. We're the only two who know of your horrible secret, and the one before that." Harry whispered softly.
"What's going on, Master? What are you and he talking about?" Peter asked frightened.
"It's simple Peter. The only person who Voldemort ever feared was himself, Albus Dumbledore. For years, I wondered about it. You see, Albus couldn't be evil. He was too good to be evil, so when he tried to suppress his evil, he in turn accidentally created an alternate personality, Grindewald. When Dumbledore defeated him, his suppressed evil once again mutated, becoming Voldemort. You see, Albus killed the real Tom Riddle, and assumed his identity. I always did wonder how Voldemort knew so much about us when it was obvious that we didn't have a spy in our midst, but our very own leader was our very own enemy's spy." Harry explained calmly. Peter's eyes widened in shock. Voldemort chuckled.
"Very good Harry." Voldemort said, a very familiar Albus Dumbledore twinkle in his snakey eye. "Very good."
"Peter, I'm calling in my debt. Attack Voldemort." Harry said coldly. Peter surprisingly snapped right to it and attacked his master, who turned into a snake with a loud pop and slithered through the drain pipe and down into the chamber of secrets.
"Damn." Harry stated in a matter of fact voice. Right then, Severus ran in, looking winded.
"Are you alright Harry? Where's Voldemort? Pettigrew!" Severus yelled, angry. Peter flinched and held his hands out in front of him as if to protect himself from Severus's wrath.
"Don't even bother with him Severus. I'm calling in my debt. He has to help us kill Voldemort." Harry said coldly. "Who it turns out is an animigus, and just turned into a snake and slithered down into the chamber of secrets. And to answer your first and final question, yes, I am alright." Harry walked over to Severus and gave him a peck on the cheek.
"You know, James would have had a heart attack right about now." Peter stated in a sickened tone. Harry smiled at Peter.
"It's a good thing that he's dead then, isn't it?" He demanded. Then is parsetongue he told the chamber door to open and once it was open, he shoved Peter down the tube and then he followed. He knew Severus would follow as well.
