Albus Dumbledore stepped thru the main portal and into Albania. One of the plans Harry and Albus made was to launch the main attack earlier than they had told everyone. It wasn't that they were worried about a leak, they weren't, but Harry was worried about Phoenix Strike getting into trouble and needing someone to bail them out.
As the army finished stepping thru the portal, explosions could be heard in the distance. A moment later, there was bright flash of light as wards collapsed.
"Squad leaders, take point. Today we battle evil on their home ground, today we will be victorious."
As the army approached the compound, they saw the burning remains of the compound as well as Weasley Wizarding Wheezes Whiz-Bang Fireworks tearing thru the air.
"Mackrack, I believe that we need another entrance." Albus asked as he was staring at the small entrance that Harry and his group had gone thru only moments before.
Before Mackrack could answer, a dwarf stepped up "Lord Dumbledore, I believe that we may be able to create an entrance faster than Mackrack's soldiers. We have quite a bit of experience with it." Seeing the confused looks from Albus and Mackrack, Happy decided to properly introduce himself.
"I am Happy, leader of the Dwarven Enclave from the Magical Realm of Disney. We come at the order of Lord Disney to help Lord Gryffindor and the Army of Light however we can."
"Of course then. Please do as you must." Albus said.
_________________________________________________________________________________
As the army was pouring into the hill, Harry and his team were already inside fighting towards Tom and the Obelisk. With the addition of their training and staffs, Harry and his group carved their way thru Tom's troops. There were all sorts of dark creatures, inferi, Mummies, and Death Eaters.
Harry spotted Tom, but he looked sick and pale. Harry then remembered something that he learned from Merlin's Trunk: When Tom was resurrected after the TriWizard Tournament, he was very weak. In fact he was so weak that had Harry known any lethal spells, he could have destroyed Voldemort's new body and send Voldemort back into a specter state.
In fact, because of what little skills he did possess at that time, Harry managed to drive Voldemort back here to heal and rebuild the magic he had lost after their fight in the graveyard. Then after the Battle of the Ministry, Voldemort had fled once again to his obelisk. Merlin's Trunk had given him Voldemort's Achilles Tendon; Voldemort used a great deal of magic in order to keep his body together. He used so much that he had to end his magical fights quickly or else take the chance of him failing.
"Phoenix Strike, I am heading for Voldemort. This ends NOW!" Harry spoke thru his mind link to the others.
"Harry, I'm coming with you!" Ginny said as she continued to fight thru the Vampires that had separated her from the others.
Harry didn't bother responding as he reached the central platform where the Obelisk was located at.
"Hello Tommy Boy!! It's time to end this!" Harry said as he withdrew his sword.
Voldemort smiled at Harry as he rose from his throne. "I see you have learned many of my secrets. I would assume from Merlin's Judgment. Well I am still immortal!! I cannot die!!"
And with amazing speed, Voldemort was on his feet, summoned a sword that had been sitting in chunk of stone, and moved to attack Harry. Harry didn't pull any punched and pointed his sword and staff at Voldemort and caste off two explosion hexes right at Voldemort's chest, blowing Voldemort off the platform, landing forty feet away, not moving.
"Phoenix Strike, set charges and prepare to get the hell out of here!" Harry ordered as he kept an eye on where Voldemort's body laid. Everyone quickly retreated to the platform and began to plant their explosives two at a time while the others defended their location. As they finished setting their charges, they heard someone else thru their mental link.
"Phoenix Strike, this is Phoenix Alpha. We are detecting a rather large amount of ambient magic building up. I think you should make an exit as quickly as possible." It was Albus' voice, and he sounded very worried.
"Phoenix Alpha, this is Phoenix Strike, we're on our way out." Harry responded. "Everyone transform and get the hell out."
Without a second glance the group transformed and fled, all except Harry. He turned and saw Voldemort's body melting away into potions remains.
"The Son-Of-A-Bitch. He used a fucking Doppelganger." Harry screamed. "Phoenix Strike, keep your eyes open, the Bloody Snake-Fuck-Face used a Doppelganger as a decoy. He's around here somewhere and he's healthy."
Just as Harry finished speaking, he felt very strong wards rise up and encompass the storehouse. Spinning around, he saw Voldemort's blood red eyes and cruel smile before he was blown back by an explosive hex, his staff and sword flying out of his hands.
_________________________________________________________________________________
The battle outside was well in hand. Albus, Minerva, Happy, and Mackrack were directing the battle and getting ready to push into the storehouse thru the new entrances Happy's dwarves had made when Albus felt a huge build up of dark magic.
After speaking to Harry, Albus started pulling the troops back, ready to have Alastor call in the Armageddon if needed. Albus saw as a number of animals came running out of the storehouse, 'Thank god they're safe.' Albus thought before he saw Avada Kedavra Green wards rise up from the ground, surrounding the storehouse as the animals reached the command post Albus was standing in. They changed back and Albus knew they were trouble. Harry wasn't with them.
Ginny, Albus, and Fawkes all had the same thought and tried to flame into the storehouse only to find that they could not.
"Dobby, try to get to Harry. He is in danger." Ron ordered the small elf.
Dobby disappeared with a pop only to reappear a moment later visibly shaken. "Dobby tried to reach Harry Potter sir, but Dobby hit some wall of magic. Dobby cannot get thru to Harry Potter." Dobby cried.
Remus too tried to enter the storehouse thru the shadows, but met the same wall Dobby described. After taking stock of the situation, Albus ordered the Army of Light to fall back and for Moody to prepare to initiate Armageddon. Albus just hoped that he wouldn't have to before Harry could escape.
_________________________________________________________________________________
Harry was hurt, he knew he was. He had no wand, no staff, no sword, and a very pissed off Dark Lord walking towards him. Harry tried to flame out of the storehouse, but found that he couldn't. Whether it was because of he was hurt or the wards Harry did not know.
Harry pulled out the remote detonator from his pouch, Harry sent out a small prayer before pressing the trigger, setting off the C-4 charges.
_________________________________________________________________________________
Outside the storehouse, Ginny watched in horror as the entire hill collapsed on itself.
_________________________________________________________________________________
Before the blast could reach him, Harry wrapped every bit of magic he could find around himself in a protective cocoon. Harry watched as the blast and the surrounding shrapnel decimated Voldemort's body, but he still would not die.
Harry, who somehow remained conscious thru the explosion, watched as the entire hill collapsed on top of him and Voldemort. After the collapse, there was an eerie quietness around Harry. After taking a few steadying breaths, Harry rose to feet and looked around. Harry could see that the top half of the hill had collapsed and that the ward was still in tact. Harry also spotted the remains of the dark obelisk glowing very faintly, still giving some dark magic that Voldemort could feed off of. Harry thought about trying to apparate or flaming out of the remains of the hill, but decided to finish his destiny first.
Harry summoned his sword and staff and stumbled over to the remains of the obelisk, using the staff to support himself as he moved; Harry placed then remains in a conjured box which he then placed under a number of wards away from where it once stood. With the lay-lines no longer powering the obelisk, the defenses around it had fallen. Harry then moved over to Voldemort, who no longer had a wand arm or wand for that matter. Using his Phoenix Sight, Harry saw that Voldemort's magic was bleeding out of him.
For the first time in his life, Harry felt sorry for the creature that was the Dark Lord, Lord Voldemort. Harry had pitied Tom Marvolo Riddle, he even wondered what would have happened if Tom would have been raised in a loving family instead of the orphanage where he was feared because of magic.
But there was no chance for redemption for Tom Riddle or Lord Voldemort. His crimes were so heinous that if he somehow lived thru this ordeal, then he would be sent thru the veil of death. Knowing that Voldemort only had minutes left, Harry kneeled down to look into his eyes.
"Hello Tom. As I am sure you have realized that I have destroyed all of your horcruxes." Harry removed a shrunken pouch, expanded it and began to pull items out. "The diary of one T.M. Riddle, created by the murder of your father; I destroyed it after Lucius gave it to my future wife. Your old friend, Salazar Slytherin's now dead basilisk, was very helpful in destroying it."
Harry saw that Voldemort was fading, so he caste a few healing charms wandlessly so that Voldemort wouldn't die, yet. Harry still had some business with the self named Dark Lord.
"No Tommy. You are going to die yet; I still have some things to tell you. Now where was I? Oh yes, your horcruxes. Next we have the Slytherin Family Ring that you stole from your Uncle Morfin Gaunt." Harry pulled out the ring in question and laid it on top of the diary. "You killed your own Grandfather to make it at the same time you made the diary into one. Well, once again the basilisk came in handy because when I killed it, some of its venom fell onto the blade of the sword I used.
"This sword is a family heirloom of mine, The Sword of Godric Gryffindor. Unfortunately, my Headmaster, you know-the only man you ever feared besides me, Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore was seriously injured.
"Next we have two items that were stolen from Hepzibah Smith; The Hufflepuff Cup and a Locket belonging to the wife of Salazar Slytherin. Hufflepuff's Cup was made with Smith's murder and the locket was made with the murder of an Auror.
"Now we come to one of my favorites, Rowena Ravenclaw's Diadem. You spoke to the Gray Lady at Hogwarts and found that she did it here in Albania before her murder. You killed Minerva McGonagall's father, who was the Chief of the Clan McGonagall, to create that horcrux.
"Then on October 31, 1981 you attempted to make another Horcrux. You were planning on using my death to create your 6th and final horcrux. You discovered that the Potter's are direct descendants…Oh you're fading again. Hold on, let me use my staff, it should work a little better."
Harry once again caste a healing charm, this time with his staff. Voldemort tried to move, but found that he was unable to move.
"Sorry Tommy-Boy. But your spine is in pieces, you can't move. But anyway, you planned on using Godric Gryffindor's Wand, which Peter Pettigrew found in a box of junk while scurrying around in Diagon Alley somewhere, as your final horcrux. The problem you ran into was that my mum and dad died to protect me. When your killing curse rebounded off of me and obliterated your body, a small piece imbedded itself in me.
"That is how I got my ability to speak Parseltongue and also made me the Heir of Slytherin and eventually the Lord of Hogwarts. That horcrux was destroyed when my soulmate and I completed our bond.
"Fortunately for me, when Hagrid pulled me from the wreckage, Gryffindor's Wand knew I was safe and magically transported itself to where it would benefit its master's heir the most, into the sword it had loved in for many years." Harry raised his sword and showed Voldemort that in the hilt of the sword was a wand.
"So you see Voldemort, you are mortal, and defeated. Do you have any last words?"
Voldemort spoke in a hoarse whisper, "Go to hell."
Harry laughed, "You first Tom. But before you go onto the next great adventure I have something to tell you: NEVER-EVER-PISS OFF A POTTER! Remember that when you are standing in front of St. Peter at the Pearly Gates of Heaven where I am sure there will be all of your victims plus a whole helluva lot of Potters there waiting for you. " Harry stood and with a quick slash, decapitated Lord Voldemort. He then took his staff, pointed it at Voldemort's chest and summoned his heart which he quickly incinerated.
Harry expected the wards to fall, but saw that they were just as strong as when he first looked at them. Knowing that there was only one way that these wards could be powered, Harry stepped onto the spot where the obelisk stood and entered into a deep meditative state. Harry quickly found that he was correct about his assumption about the ward's power source.
Deciding to make sure there was nothing left of the storehouse, Harry removed the dirty bomb from a protected inner pocket of his robes and resized it. After setting the timer for five minutes, Harry returned to where the lay lines intersected and dropped into his meditative state once again. Quickly changing the wards, Harry strengthened them as much as could, making them capable of surviving his plan, then he forced himself to transform into pure energy and simply floated out of the wards.
_________________________________________________________________________________
After the explosion, Albus ordered as many people as possible to try to lower the wards and get to Harry. Bill Weasley finally realized that these wards created using parselmagic and were powered by the lay lines itself. As Bill explained this to Albus and the others, Ginny spoke up.
"Albus get everyone away the wards and get those other wards up!! Harry is going to be stupid!!"
Quickly Albus gave the order, even though Ron, Neville, Bill, Remus, and Mackrack had to physically drag Luna, Hermione, Ginny, and Tonks back away from harm as the ward changed color. It was no longer green but a pure pulsating white. It continued to pulsate as some form of energy escaped the top of the ward. Once this energy was outside the ward, the ward turned red and continued to pulse.
The bolt of energy touched the ground in front of the now collapsed entrance of the hill and revealed a battered Harry Potter. Ginny, Dobby, Remus, and Albus, without any conscious thought, all used their own forms of travel, appeared next to Harry to bring him back to safety just as the ward glowed red and everyone felt the ground shake as the thermonuclear bomb went off inside the wards.
Dobby grabbed the small group and popped them back to safety where Hermione and Luna immediately began to tend to Harry's injuries.
The rest watched as the wards around the hill failed and the nuclear blast and radiation hit the wards intended to be used with Operation Armageddon. Harry, who was barely conscious, sat up and saw what was happening, with no thought about of his own health, Harry stood and grabbed his staff.
"We have to strengthen the wards! Quickly gather around." Harry quickly drew a circle in the dirt with his staff. Harry pointed Albus to go to the south side of the ward and start channeling power into the ward while Minerva took the east point, and Ginny took the west.
He then sent Neville to a point halfway between Albus and Minerva while Ron went to a point halfway between Albus and Ginny. Harry then ordered Hermione to the directly across from Ron and Luna was sent to the same spot across from Neville. Harry then ordered two people with staffs to stand behind the principals and channel all the ambient magic into the person in front of them.
Remus and Dora said they would stand behind Harry when he took his place opposite Albus to the north. Once everyone was in place, Harry began to chant in parseltongue, using the magic around the ward to strengthen it as well as the magic from the lay lines that were underneath them.
As Harry directed the summoned magic, the ward began to turn more and more solid until it looked like a giant red ruby. Using his mental link with the others, Harry spoke, "I need all the magic you can spare because I need to send this mess somewhere that it cannot hurt anyone."
With all the magic in the area, Harry used himself and his staff as the focus rod and banished the contents within into the sun. Without the ward holding it in place, the nuclear explosion expanded, giving the sun more power.
Harry then started to slowly collapse the ward towards the center where the Dark Obelisk once stood. As the ward shrank, Harry's magic created grass, flowers, woods, and other endogenous plants that took root in the newly cleared areas.
Finally the ward collapsed to the point that it was ten feet in diameter, one hundred feet tall, and as solid as a wall. Harry, who stopped using the freely given magic from the others, transfigured this solid ward into a white marble monolith that was two thick, four feet wide, and 12 feet tall. Once the monolith was finished, flames erupted on each side of the monolith with an inscription above them.
To Doing What is Right, Instead of What Is Easy
&
Never Tickle A Sleeping Dragon
Dedicated to Those Who Gave The Full Measure of Devotion to Defeat Evil
May We Never Forget Those Who Came Before Us
Finally, with the monolith completed, Lord Gryffindor, Harry James Potter, Head of the Ancient and Noble Houses of Azkaban, Black, Flamel, Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Potter, Ravenclaw, Slytherin; Lord of Hogwarts and Lord Protector of the Realm of Great Britain fell the ground, unconscious.
Albus, Ginny, Remus, and the others ran to his side and began to caste diagnostic spells on him. Harry regained consciousness long enough to stare into his wife's eyes.
"I love you Ginny Potter…I want to go back to Hogwarts…to…be…" And with that, he was unconscious again. Ginny simply cried over her husband's body. She knew that he was alive, she did know how, but she knew it.
