In The Dim Light of Battle

Various P.O.V's – Harry's POV

I stood within the shadow of Hogwarts. The Feast was not going to happen tonight. Instead the students would be sorted in the morning as they were now all tucked up safely in their dorms, with the first years in a special room just for the night. Madam Pomfrey had requested a large number of Medi personnel from St Mungo's, on the pretence of doing a school wide health check. I could see members of the Order and some Aurors all standing at various points around the castle, inside and out. I looked at the three that were near me; Remus, Draco and Severus, I was glad of the support these three would bring.

Tonks had been by a few moments ago, planting a very large, and what sounded like a wet kiss upon Remus, who was still a bit flushed around the cheeks, and who received a few teasing words from Severus. My scar started to prickle. Voldemort was here. I sent up the sparks that would tell everyone that he had arrived.

I looked around as we started to move towards the edge of the wards. I could see Death Eater's approaching and as I looked further I could see Voldemort surrounded by three others. I had a feeling they would be Bellatrix Lestrange, Lucius Malfoy and Peter Pettigrew.

We moved forwards and found that the Death Eater's were almost upon us. I started firing spells as they fired some at us. The Battle had started. I shot spell after spell at those in our way as we made our way to Voldemort. I was only able to use the few advanced spells that Severus and Remus taught me over the last day, but they worked well enough to cut down those that cross my path.

I don't know how long I fought the Death Eater's until we were able to get to Voldemort and his most prized Death Eater's. We needed to get rid of these last three, before I could use the spell on Voldemort.

Lucius headed for Draco and I knew in my heart that Draco would not be truly able to fight his own father, because I know deep down that he still loves him. Lestrange went for Severus, and Pettigrew headed for Remus, which worried me slightly as Pettigrew has a silver hand.

Voldemort moved forwards shooting a Killing Curse at me, which I barely dodged. I shoot my own spells at him, making sure to keep the power of them low. I hear familiar screams every now and then as I dodge and fire over and over again, for what seemed like an eternity. Listening as he told me about my parents, and their last night upon this earth. Telling me everything that he would do to me and those I love. I let every word wash over me. I knew, within my heart, within my soul, within my very magic, that this night will end with him dead.

Voldemort stopped moving, and I saw all three standing beside me, wands trained on Voldemort.

I smile at them and nod my head. "Occupo Tergum Veneficus!" I shout. I can feel my magic calling to that within Voldemort. I pull with all that I have, using all of my magic to recall, to reclaim what was mine. Within moments I felt my lost magic leave Voldemort, and rush towards me. It hit me with so much force it took my very breath away. My vision began to fade, and I knew no more.

Draco's P.O.V

We have finished getting through the main of Voldemort's forces and the four of us are now face to face with Voldemort and three of his most prominent Death Eater's; my Father, my Aunt, and Pettigrew. I look at my father, and he is nothing like I thought he was when I was young, I thought he was invincible, but he is not. I do still love him; I know that, I just wish that he could be someone that I was proud of.

He heads towards me. I knew it would come to this, as soon as I fell in love with Harry, this was my future. This was my duty. I would not let Harry have the guilt of killing my father, I will.

He shoots a Crucio curse at me. It hits, and I feel the familiar pain over come me. I scream, and scream, as I fall to the ground. He lifts the curse and moves towards me.

"You are a disappointment to me Draco," he told me in that condescending tone of voice he always used on me.

I struggle to my feet and sneer at him, "No father, it is you that is a disappointment to me."

"You are a child." He sneered as he sent the Crucio curse at me once again.

I screamed once again as my nerves became like fire. I panted as the curse was finally lifted; it felt like an eternity.

"I am not a child. I haven't been a child for a long time, and now I am a parent, much like you, and I want the best for mine. You never did. You only wanted the best for yourself." I tell him, and as quickly as I could manage I shot a cutting hex at him.

I got to my feet, and noted that my hex hit home, his wand arm was almost hanging off, blood already soaking through material. His swapped his wand to his other arm and quickly used a charm to temporarily stop the bleeding.

We faced each other, and started to fire curses and hexes at one another. I was able to dodge most of them, as was he. My left arm was cut to ribbons, but I had used the same charm my father had some time ago. I could tell that he was weakening as we carried on with our duel.

"Petrificus Totalus!" I shouted. It hit him, and he froze and fell to the floor. " I want you to suffer, I want you to know that you will never meet your grandchildren. I want you to know that I am better than you, and to dream about the life you could have had, had you chosen the right thing." I say to the frozen man lying on the ground.

I move forwards to where I can see Harry duelling Voldemort. Severus and Remus are standing nearby, finished doing their own duels. I walk to them and we nod, it's time. We had planned on only letting Severus do this, but we thought that it would be a better plan to have all three of us using the spell to keep Voldemort still.

We fired the spell as we reached Harry's side. Harry looked at us, and I smiled at him. I was so proud of him, I know that this was hard for him.

"Occupo Tergum Veneficus!" Harry shouted.

We could see Voldemort trying to fight the spells effects but it was only five minutes later when Voldemort burst into a fine white powder, that floated off in the light breeze of the night. We could see his very soul in the air where he once stood. Within a second his soul had also burst scattering little lights around us all.

Out of the corner of my eye I saw Harry smile faintly and fall to the ground. I shouted his name but he didn't respond so we all ran over to him.

Severus' P.O.V

It does not seem like an hour ago that I was teasing Remus about the kiss that Tonks had placed on his lips, and how he had blushed so hard. Now, I was in a duel for my very life. Bellatrix Lestrange is a strong witch with a very large knowledge of spells. She may be insane now, but she still has the duelling edge she had when we were at school. I was dodging Killing Curses, Crucio's, bone crushing hexes, cutting curses almost every second. A few had hit home; my left arm was useless and hanging limply by my side. I knew that one or two ribs were broken, and the cuts on my chest were bleeding sluggishly.

"What's wrong Snippy Snoopy Snape?" She teased me as she blasted another bone crushing hex at me.

I dodged to the right, "Sorry Bella, but you need more lines. They are getting rather old, you used that too much while in school together, remember?" I snipe back at her, letting her teasing and taunting words fall off of my back. "Go crawl back to that idiot you serve with. He has no power of his own, he will need yours instead. Oh and a word of warning, he will be dying tonight. Get your last bit of hem kissing and butt kissing in while you still can."

"No he will not die! He will live forever!" She screamed at me in a rage and flew towards me.

I dodged and fired a killing curse at her. The green light enveloped her and she fell to the ground. I sighed in relief, as I do not think I would have been able to keep going much longer. I still have something else to do yet.

I walk towards were Remus was and within moments Draco had joined us. We rushed over to Harry, saying the incantation to encase Voldemort and keep him still. Harry realised we were with him, and shot his spell at the vile wizard. It was five minutes, just five minutes for the supposedly Great Dark Lord Voldemort to die, to completely vanish from this world.

I heard Draco shout Harry's name, and I turned to see Harry fall to the floor. We all rushed over, hoping that he was alright.

Remus' P.O.V

I move forwards, my mind still wandering to the kiss the Nymph planted on my lips. I do like her, but I am a werewolf, what would she see in me. Maybe we can talk more when this is over. I just hope she keeps herself safe; I don't want to see her hurt. I move forwards even more, encountering Death Eaters as I do so. They are cut down quickly, not even bothering to drag them out into full blown duels.

We reached Voldemort and I could smell Pettigrew, each of us and each of them moved to face someone. Pettigrew walked to me, we stared at each other. I felt all the betrayal, all the pain that my Pack had gone through since this pathetic wizard betrayed us.

I quickly vanish the silver hand that belong to my once friend. I stare at the man, once again, the one who betrayed Harry's parents, and sent him to a life in the Muggle world. The hand would not be a threat tonight, thankfully. I was dreading that thing, that thing touching me, hurting me, poisoning me, killing me.

"You betrayed your friends Peter, now it is time for revenge. This I have waited for, for a long time." I tell him and I can hear the growl in my voice.

"I had no choice, no choice, Remus, please believe me." He squeaked in that pathetic voice of him.

I shake my head, "No Peter, you did have a choice, you had a choice, you could have confided in us, like I confided in you about my Moony problem. You were the one I confided in not James, not Sirius but you, and that is what hurts the most. They found out in third year, I told you in second year. You betrayed me by hurting my Pack. You also had a choice; you could have turned yourself in, but no, you framed Sirius Black, then you helped Voldemort return. You say you want forgiveness yet you will never receive it Peter."

"Avada Kedavra!" He yells at me. I was just able to dodge the deadly light.

I blast curses and hexes at him, glad that I know that he is a weak wizard, and rather slow. My cutting curses hit him several times. He is getting slower and slower as the moments drag on, as he loses more blood.

He falls to the floor. He is exhausted, and the loss of blood is killing him; he will not be able to last much longer. I use one last spell on him, to prevent him from transforming into his animagus form.

"I hope you go to hell Peter, for that is more than you deserve. I hope you are tortured for all eternity." I tell the panting wizard lying on the ground before me.

I walk away from him, and look around to find Severus and Draco. They are still duelling. Severus was duelling Bellatrix. I knew that Bellatrix had once asked Severus to go out with her, but he had turned the slightly older witch down most publicly. Draco was duelling his own father, and my heart went out to him.

They finished one after the other and came over to me and then we all went over to where Harry was keeping Voldemort occupied and distracted. We counted to three and then fired the spell at him. He froze; his eyes had a flame of rage within them.

Harry cast his own spell and within five minutes Voldemort was nothing more than the dust within the wind.

I turn to congratulate Harry and see him start to fall to the ground a pleased smile gently gracing his face. Draco yelled his husband's name as we rushed over to the fallen wizard.

Draco picked him up and we all walked through those that were finishing up their duels and capturing the fleeing Death Eaters. We entered the hustle and bustle of the Hospital Wing and Draco placed Harry down on one of the empty beds, waiting for someone to come and see to the unconscious wizard.

Well, another chapter done, two more left to post, sorry for taking so long in putting this up. Read and Review.
