People were running and screaming trying to find somewhere safe to hide. Shops locked their doors; children looked for their mothers, many Disapparated away. Sirius instantly sent a patronus message to the Order members. The group made their way outside. The Death Eaters were all facing the Leaky Cauldron, waiting for the Heir of Merlin to come out. When the gang made an appearance the Death Eater in front pointed her wand at Lillian. She removed her mask, showing the face of Bellatrix Lestrange. She smiled a deadly look.

"So the little witch decided to come out, our Lord orders you to join him" Bellatrix said coldly

Lillian looked straight at her eyes "If you came here to tell me that you can leave now and let these people go on with their daily routines, my answer is no.

"I was hoping you would say that, because now we can kill you"

"Did your so called master, Lord Voldermort really think I would go with him after what he did and has done for the past 30 years? You can carry to him a message actually 'Stop or suffer'" she said in a calm voice

"How dare you speak his name!" she sent a killing curse towards Lillian. Lillian didn't even move, the curse bounced off her chest. Bellatrix's eyes shot open "How?"

"Leave now or you will get all killed. Everyone else won't even have to take out their wands" Lillian said with again the calmest voice.

"I will enjoy killing you" Bellatrix said

Lillian smiled a calm smile "I have to say you came at a really bad time, first you come while I was having fun with my friends" she dogged a dozen cutting spells "second you ordered me to join you, which pisses me off" 20 killing curses bounced off from all parts of her body "and thirdly you just signed your own death warrant" Lillian summoned her staff and hit the base hard on the floor light erupting from the tip "Limiter Release 2!" her hair grew a bit longer and became a bit redder but not as much as it had on the night when Harry first met her.

Several Order members tried to help but they found themselves rooted to their spots, being surrounded by a very powerful protective shield which Lillian had placed on them. All they could do was watch. Lillian with a sad look on her face addressed the Death Eaters "Go or die, this is your last chance" not one of them moved, suddenly a strong wind blew past them, but this wind seemed to be going only against the Death Eaters stopping them from advancing.

Lillian lifted her staff high above her head and said in Ancient Runic magic "Merlin, my ancestor, channel your power through this staff! May those you stand before me pay the price for their crimes! Vidus Terminatus Maximus!" and hit her staff hard on the ground. Instantly from where the staff made contact with the ground, snake like beams of light sped into the direction of the Death Eaters, however they seemed to avoid Bellatrix, who was paralysed with shock.

The snakes wrapped themselves around the Death Eaters and absorbed into their bodies, killing them instantly. Only the 30 at the back survived. Those fled as quickly as possible. With bodies on the floor Lillian couldn't move so the wind seemed to pick her up and take her towards Bellatrix.

"How does it feel to be the only one left? Unable to escape? Now you know how your victims feel! Remember the Longbottoms? I'm going to help them and then they will hunt you, like you hunted and tortured them. Oh is that fear I see?" Lillian said, her voice full of power. Bellatrix overcame her shock and transfigured a rock into a sword and attacked Lillian.

"Another big mistake" Lillian said, instantly her staff became a sword, Bellatrix tried to cut her arm off but she moved with inhuman speed, her reflexes faster than a foxes. They moved slashing and clashing of swords, sparks flying between them. Sometimes Bellatrix would try to hit her with a spell but Lillian was too quick. Lillian transfigured a metal post into a Sai and threw at Bellatrix, she moved but wasn't fast enough, it plunged into her leg. She screamed and let go of her sword, trying to pull the Sai out, without success. Lillian moved her hand in a upward direction, Bellatrix was picked up by the wind and levitated towards Lillian "Go back to your master an tell him to stop, I wish for no more bloodshed but if he continues it will mean his own downfall and the death of his so called unstoppable Death Eaters" and with that Bellatrix disappeared.

But the panic wasn't over, people even though they were protected by the shields, started to scream as about 70 dementors appeared in Diagon Alley, sucking the happiness away, making everything cold. Lillian pointed her staff at them. She thought of her family, how happy she had been with her mother and brother… "EXPECTO PATRONUM!" a loud roar was heard even before a mighty dragon made its way out of the top of the staff. The huge beast with sharp claws, pointy teeth and spikes going down its back, flew towards the Dementors roaring loudly, sending them away. After a while all of them were gone.

The shields protecting the people on the street lifted, the Order members made their way towards Lillian who was breathing fast, holding onto her staff, when they came closer they saw it, Lillian's back, covered with blood. "I'm sorry" and with that she Disaparated from the scene.

The Ministry appeared minutes later, and Scrimgeour nearly fainted when he saw the amount of bodies on the street, these were immediately taken away. He came over to Arthur which had arrived as soon as he got Sirius' message, Arthur started to tell him what happened. Scrimgeour just nodded "She told something like this could happen. That he was planning something big, he was quiet for too long. The necessary clean ups will be done. You can go home now" Molly wanted to take the kids away as soon as possible away from the commotion, and so they Flooed back home.

Unnoticed to them the whole scene was witnessed by a handsome man in the shadows over a shop, looking down at the Merlin Heir, fighting to keep the only people left, dear to her heart, to the point of injury. He smiled to himself and Disaparated.

As soon as they got home Harry ran upstairs, heading to Lillian's room. He was nearly there when he saw Madam Pomfrey making her way down stairs. He ran past her and knocked on Lillian's door. He heard a quiet 'come in' and went inside. He found her on her bed, lying down, and a bit pale.

Harry was worried "Are you ok Lillian? That was an amazing amount of power you let go, we tried to help you but we couldn't move"

Lillian answered hi weakly "I shielded everyone, I didn't want anyone to be hurt" she sat up on the pain, wincing from the pain in her back "what I did was bad, I killed too many today" Harry sat near her on the bed, his mature side kicking in.

"You were just trying to protect us, they would have killed many if it wasn't for you" a tear came down her cheek. "I was so angry! He killed my entire family yet he has the guts to come and ask me to join him! I wanted to get revenge; I know it is wrong but… but… I miss them; I don't want to lose anymore important people, so I fought… I fought to save you and everyone else. Some may have been forced to attack or where under the Imperious yet I killed them!" she said crying, her voice full of emotion and her face with tears.

Harry couldn't stand it anymore and embraced her, calming her down "You did your best, thanks to you innocent people weren't hurt" she returned the embrace, holding onto his warmth, taking in his smell. When her tears stopped and she was calmer they parted slightly, faces inches apart. Harry unconsciously leaned in, Lillian the same. Penna watched happily from her stand, her master and her special someone sharing their first kiss…
