***Happy Birthday to me! ^_^

***I hope you like this chapter! :)

At March, Draco and Hermione got married. They just wanted to do it very quickly. They wanted to be sure that they were married before the battle. Only their friends and family knew about it. The ceremony was held inside the Room of Requirement one night. Dumbledore had performed the ceremony because Hermione and Draco had asked him to. However their happiness was destroyed when one night three days after they were married, Voldemort called on a meeting Severus and Draco and ordered Draco to kill Albus in June. Few days before school ended. The months passed very quickly. It was near the end of school and the time had come. The students were running all around the corridors. Harry, Ron and Hermione were talking at the Common Room but it was time for Harry to find Dumbledore for their work. The three friends left the common room and walked at the Hogwarts yard were the sun was shining and a lot of students were relaxing. The three stopped and Ron said ''I know that you will be with Dumbledore but be careful mate.''

''Yeah! And please come to the common room immediately after you return. Please don't stay up there Harry.'' Hermione said and look at him and hugged him tight

Harry wrapped his arms round her and kissed her head ''Don't worry Mione. I remember the plan. I have to leave when we come back.'' Harry said and smiled

Hermione nodded and Harry left.

Meanwhile at the Astronomy Tower, Severus and Albus were talking about that night's plan.

''You will know when we come back. I am sorry Severus but it is the only way. If we don't do this now you will be in the center of his wrath my boy. Think Hermione. If you die she will be lost.'' Albus said and patted Severus in his shoulder

''I know but I-I can't kill you Albus.'' Severus said and looked at the older man. He was under Albus protection from when he was 19 years old.

''It will be okay Severus. Do not worry. Now Harry has come. Return to your duties. Thank you for everything Severus'' Albus said and look at the man in front of him

''See you soon Albus.'' Severus said and with a nod to Harry who had arrived he left the Astronomy Tower.

The night had fallen and everyone in the castle had fallen asleep with it. Nothing could be heard in the castle's corridors. Only those who knew of the plan were still awake.

Hermione and Ron were at the Gryffindor Tower. None of them was speaking. They couldn't say anything. Ron was sitting at the couch in front of the fire while Hermione was sitting at the stairs for the girls dorms.

In another place of the castle at the dungeons, Severus had a glass of whisky in his hands while Draco was sitting at the couch. They were waiting for the signal of the arrival of the two men. Draco was scared. He wrapped more securely around his shoulders the coat Hermione had given him to protect him from spells and sighed. He looked at Severus and the two nodded at each other without speaking a single word. They didn't have something to say.

Hermione started pacing around the common room while playing with the ring in her finger. Her engagement ring! The one Draco had given her few months ago. Suddenly a light could be seen at the sky and Hermione looked outside while Ron came behind her and took her hand. Hermione looked at him and nodded.

''It's time, isn't it?'' Hermione whispered

''Yes it's time'' Ron whispered back

Severus put the glass down at the desk and said ''It's time Draco''

''Let's go then' He said and stoop up. He left the dungeons in hurry. He had to let the death eaters inside the castle and then he had to go to the Astronomy Tower. Severus took a deep breath and walked towards the Astronomy Tower.

Meanwhile up to the Astronomy Tower Harry and Albus had just arrived. Albus look at Harry and said ''Leave! Now Harry''

Harry didn't want to but he had promised to Hermione he would go back immediately. That was the plan. ''Thank you for everything sir! Goodbye.'' Harry said and left running. He arrived soon at the Gryffindor Common Room. When Hermione saw him, she hugged him tight and the three friends together looked out of the window and waited.

Draco arrived at the Astronomy Tower followed by Bellatrix and the other death eaters not too far behind. Dumbledore nodded to him and Draco pulled his wand out and aimed it at Albus.

That moment Bellatrix and the others came up and she said '' Well, look what we have here. Well done, Draco!''

Dumbledore look at her with a half smile. ''Good evening Bellatrix, I think introductions are called for.'' He said

Bellatrix looked annoyed but said '' Love to, Albus, but I'm afraid we're on a bit of a tight schedule.'' She then turned to Draco and said ''Do it''

Draco was looking with horror in his eyes. Why Severus hadn't come yet? He thought.

Greyback looked at Draco and said '' He doesn't have the stomach... just like his father. Let me finish him in my own way.''

Draco looked at him but Bellatrix glared at him and said ''No! The Dark Lord was clear. The boy has to do it. This is your moment. Do it! Go on, Draco! NOW!'' she yelled the last part

That moment Severus stepped in and said ''No''

Relief washed all over Draco who looked at his godfather.

Severus couldn't take his eyes from Albus. Albus smiled at him and said '' Severus... please.''

Severus took a deep breath and said ''Avada Kedavra'' The spell hit Dumbledore. He was knocked over the rail behind him and fell from the tower.

The death eaters run through the Hogwarts corridors. Severus and Draco followed them. Bellatrix destroyed the Great hall and left after that.

At the Gryffindor Tower when the three friends heard the bang they knew that everything had finished. Dumbledore was dead. They left the common room and run down towards the yard where they stopped and gasped. Harry moved forward and kneeled by Albus side while Ron wrapped an arm around Hermione's waist and she put her head at his shoulder and left her tears to fall. Soon professors and students started to come out and everyone gasped. At the sky was the Dark Mark. Minerva raised her wand to the sky and a white light appeared. Soon everyone followed suit and the Dark Mark was destroyed. Ginny went forward and hugged Harry and he put his head to her shoulder while crying.

The next day a ceremony was held at Hogwarts in the memory of Albus Dumbledore.
