And here is the continuation of the last chapter.

Chapter 5

Last Time:

"He is ok. Just knocked out" Alex tells them.

"You and Harry have to move on Alex" Hermione tells Alex.

"What about you?" Alex asks in a weak voice.

"I will send a message to your dad, to tell him what is going on" Harry nods and holds out his hand to Alex.

"Come on" Harry whispers. Alex nods and takes his hand. She stands up and with one last hug, they walk through the door.

Now:

As Alex and Harry walks through the door and down the stairs, they see Quarrel standing at the Mirror of Erised.

"You?" Harry asks in shock. Alex smirks and does a random happy dance.

"I was right!" Alex cheers distracting Quarrel and Harry.

"What are you doing?" Quarrel asks.

"You're not stuttering. So you must have put up an act. I knew I couldn't trust you and this just proves it" Quarrel rolls his eyes.

"I wouldn't want to get to know a little twit at the time. Besides you are just a little kid"

"And yet, dad, McGonagall, Hagrid and Snape would do anything I ask. If I say I can't trust you they wouldn't let you near me and would keep a close watch on you" Alex grins, "and that is exactly what they did"

"And your father isn't here to protect you" Alex shrugs her shoulders.

"Actually he is here" Alex lies.

"LIAR!" a faint voice shouts. The voice doesn't belong to Harry, Quarrel or Alex, "get the stone" Alex sighs.

"You won't be able to get it Tommy boy" Alex says cocky.

"Use the boy and the girl" 'Tommy boy' tells Quarrel.

"Come here Potter and Dumbledore" Alex skips over with Harry shadowing.

"Like I said, you won't be able to get it. One, dad has it and two the mirror just shows what our heart desire. Like if I want the stone to not use it, I would get it, but all my heart desire is to meet the cast of Twilight" Alex looks into the mirror to see the stone broken in half. Alex watches as one half goes into Harry's pocket and the other goes into Alex's skirt pocket. Alex feels it in her pocket, but doesn't dare to look at it, "sweet, I see Taylor Lautner turn into a wolf" Alex claps her hands smirking. She turns to Quarrel, "so how ya doin'?" from the corner of her eye, Alex sees Harry put his hand in his pocket where his half of the stone is.

"Let me speak to them" 'Tommy boy' spoke.

"But master you are not strong enough" Quarrel argues.

"Just do it" Quarrel starts to undo his turban and there at the back of his head, is… Voldemort. Alex looks disgusted as Harry looks shocked.

"We meet again Harry Potter and Alex Dumbledore" Alex puts on a happy face.

"You look disgusting Tommy. But it is nice to see you" Alex puts her hands in her pockets and starts to tap her half of the stone with her right hand, "you smell back by the way" Alex plugs her nose and walks up the stairs a little but Quarrel lights their exit on fire keeping them trapped.

"Alex" Alex turns around to face Voldemort. Harry is standing beside her, "how's your mother?" Alex narrows her eyes.

"Well, she is happy since she doesn't have to see your ugly face" Voldemort narrows his eyes right back. Alex crosses her arms, keeping the stone in her pocket.

"GET HER!" Quarrel glides in the air and starts to strangle her. Alex falls to the ground trying to get air in her lungs, "Potter, are you going to let a little girl fight your battles?" Harry glares and tries to pull Quarrel's hand away. Just then, Quarrel lets go as his hand falls apart. Harry sits Alex up and helps her to her feet.

"What is this kind of magic?" Quarrel screams.

"Potter has the stone! Get him!" Voldemort shouts. Quarrel grabs Harry by the throat and Alex does the same thing that Harry did. Quarrel's other hand falls apart. Alex and Harry looks at each other and nods. They run up to Quarrel and Alex touches his face and Harry does as well. They watch as Quarrel falls to pieces to the ground at their feet. Alex and Harry backs up a little, to get away from the ash. Harry pulls Alex into a hug.

"You did great Alex" Harry whispers.

"Thanks Harry. You did great too" Alex whispers back. They pull apart and Alex sees something from the corner of her eye. She turns around to see Voldemort come up from the ash, "move!" Alex screams and pushes Harry out of the way as Voldemort come flying at them. Voldemort cuts through Alex's body. Alex halls to the ground, knocked out and Voldemort does the same to Harry. Harry lies on the ground knocked out as Voldemort leaves the school.

As the week goes by, Harry awakes. He looks around to notice he is in the hospital wing. He looks on the bed beside him to see Alex still knocked out. Harry slips his glasses on to see at the end of his bed is a lot of sweets and same with at the end of Alex's.

"You have a lot of admirers" Harry looks up to see Dumbledore.

"Pardon?" Harry asks.

"Many students admirer you. They left you lots of sweets" Dumbledore picks up a box of Every Flavour Beans, "would it be ok if I try one? The last time I had one I got one that tastes like Ear Wax" Harry looks disgusted as Dumbledore takes one and pops it into his mouth, "Mmm, Peppermint"

"Sir, what happened down in the trap door, how was it that Alex and I were able to get the stone?" Harry asks Dumbledore.

"Alex was the mastermind of this one. The one who would only like to get to the stone to protect it and not to use it would get it" Dumbledore explains, "Alex got half and you got the other half. That is because Alex wanted that to happen. She wanted it that if Voldemort got it… or Quarrel in this case, then the other would be with the other hero or still inside the mirror"

"Alex was the one who came up with that?"

"Yes. As I said before, Alex has my smarts" Dumbledore chuckles and sits down on Alex's bed, stroking her hair, "my question to you would be… what did Voldemort say to Alex?"

"He asked her how her mom is" Dumbledore nods with a sigh.

"Alex will be asking me questions about something"

"Sir?" Dumbledore looked at Harry, "uhm, why couldn't Alex and I touch Professor Quarrel?"

"Both your mothers sacrificed themselves to save you both. Love is the one thing Voldemort hasn't experienced and is what he is afraid of. He is afraid of me because of how much love is in my heart and I will protect the ones I love. Alex loves you, Hermione, Ron, Professor McGonagall, Hagrid, her other friends, and me. He heart holds so much love that he was a little nervous of her, but that is why he can't touch her. It is also because of her mother. Her mother died saving her. Just like your mother" Harry nods understanding.

A few hours later, it was dinner. Harry walks out of the hospital wing. Alex hasn't woken up yet, and she should be awake by tomorrow. Harry walks out and sees Hermione and Ron talking outside the great hall. Harry smiles.

"Hey guys" Harry greets Hermione and Ron. They both jump and grin when they see it is only Harry.

"How are you?" Hermione asks.

"Good. Ron?" Ron grins.

"I'm doing well" Ron answers.

"Hermione?" Harry asks.

"Never better" Hermione, Ron and Harry lace their arms through each other's, with Hermione in the middle, and walks into the great together.

~HP & WOWP~

The next day, is the last day of school. That night they will find out who wins the house cup. Alex sits up in her bed, and wipes her eyes.

"Afternoon Ally" Dumbledore greets. Alex looks to her left to see Dumbledore.

"Daddy" Alex whispers holding her arms up. Dumbledore picks her up and hugs her tightly, but not enough to hurt her.

"I was so scared angel. When I got a message from Hermione telling me that you and Harry were down in the trap door, I got scared. I knew someone was trying to take it, but I didn't know who. I am so glad you are ok" Dumbledore let his tears fall after he felt Alex cry into his shoulder.

"I'm sorry. After we found out the dummy was in the forest, I knew it was him trying to get it. I just didn't know who would have been working with him to get down there. I didn't trust Professor Quarrel and everyone was saying it was Severus, and I knew it wasn't him. I know all the other teachers and I knew it wouldn't be them, so it was down to Quarrel" Alex explains. Dumbledore nods and sits down. Alex cuddles up in his arms and holds her close.

"I love you Ally"

"I love you too daddy"

"This is a bitter sweet moment" Dumbledore and Alex looks up to see Madam Pomfrey.

"Is she good enough to go down to dinner tonight?" Pomfrey nods.

"Yes" she answers, "but you will have to watch her" Pomfrey starts to wraps both of Alex's hands in bandages and puts a piece of bandage over Alex's stitches on her forehead, above her left eye. Next is Alex's right cheek. Pomfrey puts a band aid over a long cut. As for Alex's arms, legs and torso, Pomfrey found only bruises from the Devil's Snare.

"I hate Devil's Snare. It's creepy and hurts" Alex complains as she and Dumbledore walks down to the great hall, hand in hand.

"I bet. Will you promise something Al?" Dumbledore stops walking right outside of the doors. Alex stops and looks at him.

"Anything"

"If something dangerous is going on, promise me you will tell me"

"I promise daddy" Alex and Dumbledore hugs and he opens the doors with a bang. All the students that are already there eating, stop and look up. Alex and Dumbledore walk in and Alex and Dumbledore hug once more as Alex takes her seat. Once Alex grabs some dinner and Dumbledore sits down, all the students start talking again.

"Hey" Hermione smiles at Alex, who is sitting beside her on her right and the two guys are sitting across from them.

"Hey" Alex smiles and takes a bite of chicken.

"How are you feeling?"

"Good. Just sore because of that Devil's Snare, but good" Alex and Hermione hugs each other gently, as Harry and Ron looks at Alex's bandage hands, forehead, cheek and all the bruises. Alex's eyes are dark showing her emotions, "so how were the classes?"

"Boring" Ron answers, "mostly with you not there to make fun of the work" Alex laughs and rolls her eyes.

"It's not my fault that I love to make fun of the work we get" Alex's eyes start to brighten with happiness and excitement. After dinner, Dumbledore stands up. The flags hang down, and Alex knows that Slytherin won the house cup.

"Another year has gone and what an exciting one it was" Dumbledore starts with a chuckle, "and now it is time for the House Cup. But to warn you, I have some last minute points to hand out. In last place for the House Cup, is Gryffindor with 312, in third, Hufflepuff with 352; Ravenclaw with 426, and Slytherin with 472" Slytherin starts to cheer, "yes, well done Slytherin, well done. But recent events have happen that needs to be taken into account" everyone quiets down and they all begin to listen. Hermione and Alex grabs each other's hands slightly nervous, "First, to Mr. Ronald Weasley"

Ron blushes, slightly surprised.

"For the best playing chess that Hogwarts has even seen. He saved his friends at the price of his own. I award him and Gryffindor house… 50 points" the Gryffindor house cheers and Alex listened to what Percy was telling the other prefects.

"My brother. My youngest brother. He saved Alex, Harry and Hermione and they made it passed McGonagall's giant chess set to save the school. He could have died by saving Hermione, Harry and Alex" Alex rolls her eyes at Percy, but knowing they couldn't have made it passed if it wasn't for Ron.

"Second" Dumbledore starts as everyone got quiet, "to Ms. Hermione Granger" Hermione blushes, "for the use of cool logic to save her friends and her lessons in Herbology in the face of danger. I award her and Gryffindor house… 50 points" the Gryffindor table cheers and Alex hugs Hermione tightly as Hermione buried her face in her arms.

"Well done Hermy" Alex whispers to Hermione.

"Third" everything went quiet again; "to Mr. Harry Potter" Harry covers his face with his hands, "for pure nerve and outstanding courage. I award him and Gryffindor house… 60 points" just then everything boomed. They are tied with Slytherin. 472-472.

"We're tied with Slytherin" Hermione whispers to Alex as she looks up.

"Fourth" Dumbledore cuts everyone off. Everything went quiet once again, "to Mr. Neville Longbottom" Neville's eyes grow wide and Alex hugs him, since he is on her right, "it must take a lot of courage to stand up to your enemies, but takes a lot more to stand up to your friends. That is why I award Neville and Gryffindor… 10 points" the Gryffindor students cheer but Dumbledore cuts them off, "finally. To Ms. Alex Dumbledore" everyone went utterly quiet, "it takes a lot of strength and courage to stand up against your friends to defend teachers and family. It takes a lot of courage to stand up against the darkest of people. Down in the trap door, Alex mocked the darkest wizard of all time and still came out of it alive. She faced Devil's Snare and made it out alive as she was being suffocated. She faced Professor McGonagall's giant chess set and caught the key for the door as she rode the broom while getting attacked. Then she faced, Voldemort. She mocked him and got the stone, but it was in half. The other face went to Mr. Harry Potter. She was the one who go the stone to protect it. She is the youngest in her year and yet faced more danger then everyone here. Therefore, I award her for her courage and nerve. She and Gryffindor house gets… 70 points.

Now the standings are… Hufflepuff with 352, Ravenclaw with 426, Slytherin with 472, and Gryffindor with 552.

"Therefore there must be a change in decoration" Dumbledore claps his hands and the flags change for Slytherin to Gryffindor, "Gryffindor wins the House Cup" Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff and Gryffindor cheers and congratulates Harry, Ron, Hermione, Neville and Alex and happy that Slytherin lost the House Cup.

~HP & WOWP~

Finally the next day, Alex sitting on the boats with Hermione, Ron and Harry. As they arrive to the Hogwarts Express, Alex helps her friends up their trunks in a compartment. Alex climbs back off with her friends, upset that the year has ended. Alex is wearing, jeans, t-shirt and a sweater as her friends are still in their robes.

"You have to visit me this summer!" Ron says with a grin, "and we will write to each other" Alex rolls her eyes and nods.

"Most defiantly" Alex answers with a grin. Just then the train whistle blows, "you must be getting on"

"Bye Alex. I will write to you this summer" Harry says as he hugs her goodbye.

"Me too. Oh and tell Vernon, if he hurts you and I find out, there will be hell to pay" Harry and Alex chuckles and Harry nods.

"I will" Harry climbs onto the train as Ron hugs her. The two boys sit down on the seats looking out the window where Alex and Hermione are talking. Finally Alex and Hermione hugs and Hermione climbs on. As she sits down, Ron opens the window and the three of them wave goodbye to Alex as the train starts to go full speed to Kings Cross.

And that is the end of year one. What did you think? Please review.
