Chapter 54

Last Time:

"So if we didn't run into you, we would have had to get the Hallows?" Alex nods at Hermione, when she asked the question.

"Yes" Alex turns to Harry. Harry pulls out the Golden Snitch from the first game. He passes it to Alex and as soon as she touched it, it opens.

"We were trying to get it to open the ENTIRE time!" Ron cries. Alex rolls her eyes.

"The snitch only opens to the person who don't want anything"

"But we thought it only opens to the one who caught it?" Hermione asks.

"It does. But Harry OFFERED it to me, so it made the snitch allow itself to open to me" Harry, Ron and Hermione nods knowing Alex is right. After all, she is the daughter to the greatest wizard in the world.

Now:

After Harry gives Ron the Gryffindor sword, Harry lays the locket on a fallen tree. Alex and Hermione are leaning against the tree, the campsite all packed up. Hermione and Harry were able to discover where the next Horcrux is. It's at Godric's Hallow. Or so they think...

Alex knows they are wrong, but she knows Harry needs to go there. She wrote Hermione a note and slipped it in her purse, telling her each Horcrux. This is what it says:

Dear Hermione,

These are the Horcruxes that you guys need to destroy. But you need Harry and Ron to figure it out without you giving them the answer. If you tell them, they will not understand why it is so important. If they know and don't figure it out themselves, then the Horcruxes will NOT be destroyed. You have to MEAN it.

The Lost Diadem (Ravenclaw)

Hufflepuff's Cup

Nagini (HIS snake)

The Locket (Slytherin's and destroyed)

Tom Riddle's Diary (destroyed in second year)

The Ring (inside the Golden Snitch)

Harry himself (a piece of HIS soul is inside Harry)

Love,

Alex

Alex watches as the locket opens and a dark cloud escapes. Alex sees Hermione and Harry in the dark cloud, taunting Ron. Ron gets mad at whatever they were saying and destroys the locket.

Alex begins to feel lightheaded, and Hermione catches Alex before she hits the ground.

~H&A~

"What's wrong?" Harry panics running up to Hermione and the knocked out Alex.

"I don't know" Hermione says slightly scared. Ron runs over with the sword and puts the sword in Hermione endless bag.

"We have to go guys. Harry, you carry Alex. We can't stay in one place too long" Ron tells them. Hermione helps Alex into Harry's arm, before Hermione grabs Harry's arm and Ron's.

They are staying in the middle of the street of Godric's Hallow.

The teenagers hear Christmas Carols.

"It's Christmas Eve" Hermione whispers. They hear Alex begin to stir, "over here" Hermione leads them over to a graveyard next to a church they are near. They sit down on the steps as Alex begins to awake.

"What... happened?" Alex whispers catching her breath and rubbing her head.

"You collapsed" Hermione tells her as Alex looks at her; "I caught you in time before you hit the ground" Alex nods.

Alex feels pain shoot through her left arm. Harry feels Alex trash around in his arms. He holds her tighter to keep her from falling.

"What's wrong?" Hermione, Ron and Harry ask together worried.

"We... have... to... go" Alex answers out of breath. Harry lifts Alex up and the teenagers take off out of the graveyard.

~A&H~

As the teenagers stop to catch their breaths, Alex slips out of Harry's arms and opens the gate next to them. She begins to walk up to the house, which is all in ruins. She continues to walk and sees a teddy bear at her feet. She picks it up and smiles seeing Harry's face on it. She turns around and sees Voldemort standing in front of her. He grabs her around the throat and picks her up. Alex grabs his right wrist trying to break loose. He tightens his grip before throwing her into a brick wall.

Harry, Ron and Hermione sees Alex get thrown into the brick wall, by nothing. They run over to Alex, seeing blood dripping down from her mouth.

"Alex" they whisper running closer. Harry puts his hand to the back of her head, to make sure there is no damage. He takes his hand away, to see no blood on his hand. He lifts Alex into his arms hugging her. Her back is to his chest as she lays her head on his left shoulder. Harry feels Alex jerk in his arms and sees blood falling from her right ear. Hermione and Ron gasps and Harry looks at Alex's face to see her eyes rolling into her head and blood comes from her eyes.

"Hermione, do something!" Ron panics. Harry holds in his panic, knowing he can panic after.

"There is nothing I can do!" Hermione snaps panicking.

"Contact Dumbledore" Harry tells them.

"How? He's dead!" Ron cries. Harry feels Alex going into compulsion. Harry closes his eyes, not knowing the answer. In his mind he pictures Alex smiling at him.

"When you ask me sweetly, dad can hear you. You need to remember Harry. Dad is always listening. You need to MEAN it when you need his or my help. Remember when you and Hermione were talking about me before Dean died? Well, you SAID my name like you MEAN it. That is how I knew where you guys were"

Harry opens his eyes.

"We need you Dumbledore. Alex is in danger" the teenagers hear a pop and looks up to see Dumbledore rushing over as a ghost.

Dumbledore grabs Alex's arms and looks over her body, making sure there is no more damage. He lifts his old Elder wand and chants something incoherently.

Alex stops shaking, bleeding and now catching her breath.

"This house is charmed. ALL Death Eaters will have this problem" Dumbledore tells them, "this is your old house Harry" Harry looks at Dumbledore, "Lily and James put this charm over the house. I broke it just for Alex. HE would even have this problem if he re-entered. But Alex is ok now" Dumbledore kisses Alex's forehead before popping out.

Alex opens her eyes weakly to see that she is back at the graveyard. She sees Hermione and Harry standing in front of a gravestone.

"It's Lily and James Potter" Alex looks up to see Ron. Ron hugs Alex gently and lifts her up. He takes over her spot and lets her relax in his embrace.

~H&A~

Harry and Hermione walks back to Ron and Alex, to see Alex awake. They run over to her and hug her tightly.

"SHIT!" Alex whispers under her breath; "get under the cloak" Hermione pulls the cloak out quickly and Harry, Ron and Hermione go under it. Alex turns to the road to see Bathilda Bagshot walking to her.

"Hello Nagini" Alex smirks. Nagini stares at Alex as Alex stares back.

Harry, Ron and Hermione see the Gryffindor sword behind Alex's back. They watch as Bathilda Bagshot start to rip apart and Nagini lays on the ground.

"You know Nagini; I think that you just ruined the mission. You are supposed to STAY as Bagshot. I'm just enjoying a nice Christmas Eve waiting for my friends to arrive.

Nagini hisses at Alex, making her roll her eyes.

"Why would I call him if Potter and his friends are not here?"

Another hiss.

"I really think you are drunk. Is it even possible for snakes to get drunk?"

Another one, but more angry.

"You think EVERYONE is Potter. Remember in the meeting over the summer? You were going to attack me because you thought I was Potter"

Nagini narrows her eyes and hisses once more. She grows taller so she is taller than Alex.

"My name is Alex Dumbledore and I'm your worst nightmare" Alex swings the sword and cuts Nagini's head off. Alex sighs and closes her eyes. She feels Harry wrap his arms around her waist and lifts her up, bridal style, and is gone with a pop.

And that's the chapter. I know, I know, I like killing the Horcruxes off in MY order. I always hated Nagini. She creeped me out when I first saw her in Goblet of Fire.

Oh, and YES Dumbledore is dead. I will explain things in the later chapters.

Please review.
