Harry’s P.O.V. (30 minutes
later) BANG! Everyone in the hall went quiet, BANG! Dumbledore stood up, BANG!
All of the professors stood up wands raised, BANG! Dumbledore, McGonagall,
Snape and Lupin walked towards the door. Then it happened, so suddenly, half
way there the doors flew open and Voldemort walks in followed by all his death
eaters, my first thought, ‘Pad Foot’. “Where is Pad Foot, I mean Lucy?”
I found myself yelling while; the professors pushed the other students to the
back of the hall. Voldemort laughed at me, “She isn’t hurt, I would never hurt
her,”

“Why is that?” I asked but he didn’t answer just smirked. “Hello Dumbledore
ready to die yet?” He sneered, “You shouldn’t have come here Tom,” Dumbledore
replied calmly. “What have you done with Lucy? She was sitting outside, now what
have you done with her?” Ron yelled, “Quiet Weasley boy, the lord is speaking,”
A death eater snapped. “All I want is three things tonight. 1. To kill you,
Albus,” Voldemort continued, I noticed a rather short death eater shuffle
uncomfortably at this, “2. To take over Hogwarts,” That same death eater
shivered, “and 3 to kill Harry Potter,” At this the short death eater put her
hand on Voldemort’s arm and whispered, “Please father, please.”

“Whose side are you on?” He shot back and she slowly bought back her arm.
“Stupefy!” I yelled and it barely missed the little death eater. Voldemort shot
a spell back at me and I deflected it, now spells were flying everywhere and
Ron was somehow fighting Voldemort. “Expliarmus! Flipendo!” Voldemort yelled at
he and Ron flew back and everyone stopped to watch, he slid back while
Voldemort stepped closer. He raised his wand at Ron, “NO!!!” I heard someone
other than me yell, but I had someone holding on to me so I couldn’t run like
whoever was. I looked to see who running it was, to my surprise, Pad Foot
taking off the things that the death eaters wore, “AVADA KEDAVRA!” Voldemort
yelled as she stood in between Ron and Voldemort. Pad Foot got hit by the curse
and Ron grabbed his wand, “AVADA KEDAVRA!” he yelled and it hit Voldemort square
in the chest. Instead of falling over like Pad Foot did; he vanished into thin
air, I knew he was dead, but that wasn’t what my mind was on. It was on Lucy
who was lying lifeless on the floor, “Pad Foot, wake up! Lucy, wake up! LUCY! LUCY!”
I screamed as Sirius Black, Mad-eye Moody, Remus Lupin, Molly Weasley, Arthur
Weasley and Tonks came in from fighting in the entrance. Sirius ran up and
kneeled down, crying, next to his dead daughter; Remus came up to me, whoever
was holding me let go and he gave me a hug, Mr Weasley gave Mrs Weasley a hug,
Tonks fell to her knees and Mad-eye started helping others who were hurt. “What
is this?” Sirius asked picking up her left wrist. “She was a death eater, but
she stood in between Voldemort and I when he went to kill me,” Ron explained, he
nodded and put it back down, “Wait a minute did you say she has the dark mark?”
Snape asked. Ron nodded and he walked forward placing her head on his lap,
“What are you doing?” Sirius asked, “Just wait, I’m going to see if this works.
I made a spell for death eaters in case they ever got seriously hurt or nearly
killed.” Snape explained, “But this isn’t seriously hurt or nearly killed she
is…” But Sirius didn’t finish his argument. “Just let me try,” Snape asked and
Sirius nodded, “Pipisky elimunator.” He said pointing his wand at her. Sirius
was staring at his daughter with the little hope he had left, Tonks crossed her
fingers, Mr and Mrs Weasley closed their eyes, Remus was breathing heavily not
daring to blink and I went to stand near Ron who was next to her holding her
hand. Everyone in the whole room was watching holding their breath, some in
tears; but nothing happened for 2 minutes and people gave up hope and looked
away until, “Aw, come on, I’m not that ugly,” An all too familiar voice said.
My head snapped back and saw Pad Foot with a smile on her face, “HOW COULD YOU
SCARE ME LIKE THAT?” Ron screamed at her, “Are you seriously telling me off for
saving you?” She snapped, “Yes, yes I am. You could have died!” Ron glared.
“Well sorry next time I’ll let you die then,” She yelled; they started fighting
over who was wrong and who was right it was kind of funny actually. “I SAVED
YOUR LIFE AND I AM ALIVE NOW!” She yelled, “ONLY BECAUSE SNAPE SAVED YOU!”

“WELL WOULD YOU RATHER ME BE ALIVE AND YOU BE DEAD OR BOTH OF US ALIVE?”

“I WOULD RATHER NOT HAVE SOMEONE HAVE TO SAVE YOU!”

“I JUST SAVED YOUR LIFE AND YOU THANK ME BY YELLING AT ME; FINE, REMIND ME
NEVER TO DO THAT AGAIN! VOLDEMORT IS DEAD ISN’T HE? YOU KILLED HIM BECAUSE HE
KILLED ME ISN’T THAT RIGHT? YOU ARE ALIVE RIGHT NOW BECAUSE I DIED FOR YOU
CORRECT? THEN SNAPE SAVED ME SO I AM ALIVE NOW TOO IS THAT CORRECT? SO I DON’T
SEE WHAT YOUR PROBLEM IS, WE ARE BOTH ALIVE!” A silence filled the hall after
she screamed that. They were both standing up so close that their noses were
touching, it was quite a scene. Both of them had blood on their head either
dried or fresh, both had sweat dripping from their faces and Pad Foot had a big
cut going from her ankle to her thigh. “I was just scared,” Ron said his voice
cracking, “That doesn’t mean you have to yell at me,” She replied giving him a
hug, “Sorry,” They both whispered at the same time, “Well that was
interesting,” Sirius stated. Pad Foot pulled away and jumped into his arms
before giving him a kiss on the cheek, she then gave Remus, Tonks, Mr and Mrs
Weasley and finally she came and gave me a hug. She then went up to Snape and
gave him a hug; almost everyone in the whole room gasped when Snape hugged
back, “Thanks for saving me,” She whispered

“Just don’t make me need to ever do it again.” He whispered back. “Now I have a
bone to pick with you,” Sirius growled, “Why didn’t you tell us you were a
death eater,” He continued, Pad Foot stiffened quickly, “I-I wasn’t allowed to.
V-Voldemort threatened t-to torture me i-if I told a-anyone,” She stuttered,
“a-and I did t-tell P-Professor McGonagall, P-Professor Dumbledore and
P-Professor S-Snape.” She continued. Sirius nodded but still seemed angry, “I’m
guessing my mother made you?” She nodded again, Sirius sighed and closed his
eyes, “I’m sorry,” Pad Foot whispered, “You shouldn’t be sorry,” He replied. Pad
Foot nodded, “So what do we do now?” She asked and Ron pulled her close, “Well
for starters,” he said and kissed her. “Good idea,” Dean said and gave Hermione
a kiss who kissed back. “Well may as well,” Mr Weasley said giving Mrs Weasley
a kiss, “What a better ending?” Remus asked and kissed Tonks. Everyone then
looked at me, I didn’t say anything however, just walked up to Ginny and she
wrapped her arms my neck and kissed me.
