Harry's POV

I rushed to the main entrance of the castle, to meet Dumbledore. The old man was already waiting for me, standing beside the entrance doors. My father's Invisibility Cloak was tucked under my arm as I skidded to a halt next to Dumbledore.

"I would like you to put on your Cloak, Harry." Said Dumbledore, he waited calmly for me to throw the Cloak over my head and vanish. "Shall we go?" He asked.

"Yes, sir." I said softly.

I followed the Headmaster out of the castle; he walked in front of me. His cloak floated in the air, as the wind blew and his silver beard shimmered in the moonlight.

"Professor, what will people think about you leaving the school grounds?" I asked my mind thinking of Malfoy and Snape.

"That I am off to Hogsmeade for a drink, you see Harry sometimes I offer my customs to Rosmerta, or I go to Hog's Head...or I appear to. It is as good a way as any of disguising one's true identity." He explained as I finally was able to catch up with him.

"Professor," I asked as the sight of the gates of Hogwarts came into his view. "Will we be Apparating?"

Dumbledore nodded. "Yes, you do know how to now, if I am correct."

"Yes I do know how to, but I don't have my license." I told him honestly. I thought it was best to be honest to him at a time like this one.

"I will assist you then."

We both turned out of the gates into the almost deserted lane to Hogsmeade. Lights shone from the windows of the Three Broomsticks' as we neared the pub.

"—and stay out!" Rosmerta said pushing a hobo-looking wizard out the door. She was about to go back inside when she noticed us—well Dumbledore. "Hello Albus." She said greeting him politely. "You are out awfully late this evening."

"Good evening Rosmerta, I am off to Hog's Head...no offence but I am in the mood for a quieter space."

Rosmerta nodded understandingly and went back inside the Three Broomsticks. The two of us turned a corner and a minute later I was looking up at the crooked looking sign of Hog's Head. Inside it was empty, unlike the Three Broomsticks which was always full.

"There is no need for us to entre, because as long as no one sees us, we are fine." Dumbledore muttered as he glanced around us to make sure the coast was clear. Dumbledore lifted up his arm, and held it out for me to hold. I held onto his forearm like I did when we went to visit Professor Slughorn at his house.

"On the count of three—one...two...three."

I turned. I got the horrible sensation of being squeezed through a tube. When I thought I was going to suffocate because I could not breathe through the entire thing. I opened my eyes to see I was standing in darkness, I could hear waves crashing and I could smell fresh salt water.

Dumbledore and I were now in a damp, dark cave. I could hear the wave's crash against it. Dumbledore touched the caves wall as I watched. We stood there for a moment, looking at the scene, Dumbledore then took out a long slender knife and cut his hand. His scarlet blood ran down his palm, a vision of Riley doing the same on the staircase ran through my mind. I shuttered.

I swallowed the lump that had formed in my throat."Please, Professor, let me." I tried to convince him.

"No Harry, I'm much older and my blood is much less valuable." Dumbledore said, and wiped his bloody hand on the rocks. Suddenly before my eyes, there was a still lake with an island in the middle of it. I looked over the space, not sure how this was going to help us with anything, but Dumbledore was a strange man and could progress in the oddest of ways.

In a blink of an eye a chain shot out of the water, causing me to jump slightly in surprise. Then I
thought of how much better it would be if I had Lexi laughing at me after screeching from fear of the chain appearing out of nowhere herself. I shook my head free of Lexi, this wasn't time for her. Dumbledore needed my undivided attention. Fred was taking care of her, probably snogging her brains out in some dark corner.

Dumbledore and I pulled the boat to the shore, and then Dumbledore and I climbed in. We went to
the island that was in the middle of the lake. I faithfully gave Dumbledore every last sip of that god damn potion as he screamed for me to kill him, I was scared for Dumbledore, and he was acting like he had gone mad. But Lexi was all that was on my mind, and the one thing I thought about the most was when we kissed last night, did she kiss me back, or did I read too far into it?

I fought those damned Inferi creatures of the deep, with a part of Lexi in every spell that I cast. I shot them with the fire Lexi has, and the fire she gave me by being with Fred. I brought Dumbledore back, and I listened to him, I was his man through, and through, but Lexi had a way of towing with that loyalty.

(A/N: do me a favour guys and pretend Dumbledore didn't cast the fire spell that Harry did.)

Soon enough, we had grabbed the Horcrux and went back to Hogwarts. Above the Astronomy Tower was the Dark Mark as Rosmerta had informed us. Someone had been killed, and Death Eaters were at Hogwarts.

As we set off on a couple of broomsticks all I could think about was the safety of my friends and Lexi. Why was she like a drug? Why was she so quirky it was perfect? Why had I been such a git, and lose her because of it.

I was running to hide my Invisibility Cloak still on me as Dumbledore instructed, hoping that Lexi was safe. It was like a gift from Merlin when I saw her running towards me. I took of the top of the Cloak revealing my head.

"Harry?" She asked in a whispered in surprise. "What are you doing here?"

I smiled at her, and then suddenly frowned. Her voice it was filled terror, she was scared."Hiding, you?"

"Same, this place is infested with Death Eaters." She said as she ran over and enveloped me in a hug.

"I'm so scared, Harry." She whispered, burying her head in my chest. I then put the cloak over the both of us, so we would not be seen.

I gripped my wand tight as I started to bring Lexi over to the door. I promised Dumbledore to go and hide and I wasn't going to break that promise, not now. As I reached for the door, Lexi held my hand and gave it a tight squeeze. She was trying her best to act brave but she was failing. The door then burst open and shouted: Expelliarmus

I felt my body go rigid, I looked over to Lexi and she was the same as me. Frozen, like a statue. But wait, Expelliarmus wasn't a Freezing Charm.

Then by the light of the Mark, I saw and certainly Lexi saw too, we saw Dumbledore's wand fly right out of his hands. Then it hit me. Dumbledore immobilised me and Lexi. That one spell cost him from defending himself. Shit.

I looked at Dumbledore, his face showing no sign of emotion. He looked at his disarmer and said. "Good Evening, Draco."

Draco disarmed Dumbledore. That bitch.

Draco's pale white face looked around the room, making sure that he and Dumbledore were the only ones who were there. His eyes fell upon the broomstick I used to get here. He took a step toward our Headmaster.

"Who else is here?" He asked, jerking his head over in the direction of the second broomstick.

"A question I might be asking you, Mr. Malfoy. Or are you working alone, this evening?"


Lexi's POV

I saw Draco's pale, dull eyes shift back to Dumbledore in the greenish glare of the Mark. I looked at Harry, his eyes fixed upon the scene in front of us.

Draco cleared his throat. "No, I've got back-up. There are Death Eaters in your school tonight."

"Well, well. Very good indeed. You managed to get them here, all by yourself didn't you?" Dumbledore said applauding Draco for his work, like it was a project for school. I was confused; Dumbledore was congratulating Malfoy for bringing these scumbags into his school. My home.

"Yeah, right under your nose and you never realised a thing!" Draco shouted, stepping closer to Dumbledore.

"Ingenious," said Dumbledore. "Yet...forgive me...but where are they now?" He asked, cocking his head to one side.

"Having a fight down below, probably winning most likely. I came on ahead of them...I have a job to do."

A job? What? Then it suddenly clicked. Draco was going to kill Dumbledore.


Harry's POV.

"Well then, m'boy you must get on and do it then."

There was silence between the two. Lexi and I stood there under the Cloak, completely paralyzed forced to watch as Malfoy was going to kill the greatest wizard. Draco did nothing but stare at the man, he was about to kill but surprisingly Albus Dumbledore did nothing but...but smile.

"You are not a killer Draco."

"You don't know what I am! You don't know what I'm capable of...what I've done" said Draco at once, jabbing the air.

"Oh yes, I do." Dumbledore said mildly. "You almost killed Ms. Katie Bell and Mr. Ronald Weasley. You have been trying to kill me all year, Draco. Forgive me, Draco but your attempts have been feeble...so feeble, that I wonder whether your heart is really in it?

"It has been in it!" He shouted angrily.

Down below, there was a muffled scream. Draco's head turned in the direction of the door, then back to Dumbledore.

"Someone is putting up a good fight. And you were saying you managed to get all these Death Eaters in here, in my school, which I must admit thought was impossible...how did you do it?" He asked a polite tone.

Malfoy said nothing.

"You ought to get the job done alone." Suggested Dumbledore. I was suddenly angered. Dumbledore was asking Malfoy to end his life. "I have no wand...I am defenless."

Malfoy was still silent.

"I see, you are scared to act alone."

"I'M NOT SCARED." He shouted more angrily then he did before. If I wasn't paralyzed I would have jumped with surprise. "You should be the one who is scared." Malfoy said this time calmer.

"But why?" Dumbledore asked. "I don't believe you will kill me, Draco. Killing is not as easy as the innocent believe. How did you smuggle them in here?"

"I had to mend the Vanishing Cabinet, that hadn't been used for years." He explained. "The one Montague got last year."

"There is a pair isn't there?"

"Yes, the other was in Borgin and Burkes. That's how I got them in, I knew they couldn't Apparate, Granger always tells Weasley that anyways. So I figured I used the Cabinets."


Lexi's POV

The two began discussing Draco's plan to kill. As I figured Dumbledore was stalling. It was getting quite boring; I didn't want to listen anymore.

After they finished talking, Draco fixed his wand to Dumbledore's chest. Malfoy looked as though he might cry. "You don't understand." He whispered. "I have to kill you, or he's going to kill me." He said quietly but enough for Dumbledore to hear him.

Draco just stood there, when in through the door burst Bellatrix Lestrange, Greyback, and others I did not recognized, followed behind her. Draco was right, they won the fight below.

(A/N: okay the rest kind of happened in the movie, not the book. Because mrs0cullen and I changed it. Deal with it pls.)

"Dumbledore cornered!" One Death Eater cried in glee. "Dumbledore wandless! Dumbledore alone! My, my well don't Draco, well done."

"Good evening, everyone." Dumbledore said politely. He was actually being nice to them, if I were him I could have just cussed them out.

"Well done, Draco." Bellatrix cooed. "Now, finish him off. Do it, Draco!" She screamed, turning into the mad woman Azkaban had made her, the mad woman she always had been.

Draco's arm was shaking, his lips quivering, I could see those two words forming in his mouth, I was just hoping it never fully processed. Why wasn't Dumbledore fighting back? Why wasn't he defending himself? His school?

Then Snape waltzed in, like what was happening was the most natural thing, and what was worse, he didn't whip out his wand and hex all damn Death Eaters in the room, pushing the aside for him to walk.

"I'm not sure the Dark Lord can trust you with this Draco. I'll make quick work of this. You are not capable of fulfilling the Dark Lord's orders." He sneered as he pushed Draco aside and stepped in his place. Snape was one of them, I had always thought of that possibility. Everyone in the room, was hushed.

"Severus..." Dumbledore said.

The sound sent shivers up my back, my gaze quickly flickered to Harry, he looked...frightened. Even though he was paralyzed. This was the first time; I'd actually heard Dumbledore pleading.

But Snape said nothing to him. Just raised his wand and aimed it at Dumbledore. He gazed at Dumbledore for a moment and there was revulsion and hatred etched upon his face.

"Severus...please..."

"Avada Kedavra!"

The jet of green light hit Dumbledore square in the chest. My scream of horror never escaped my lips, and my lips never even moved; they were frozen, immobile. Harry and I were forced to watch as Dumbledore was blasted into the air, shimmering under the Mark for a split second and then he fell backwards slowly, time seemed to move more slowly as he fell like a giant rag doll to the ground.

Dumbledore was gone. Dead, by the man he trusted the most. And now, we were all in danger.

Everything is just falling apart.
