Chapter 32 - Climax

It was the DADA exam and everyone was there. They'd been doing it for ages and a few people had actually finished, including Erica who looked at her watch.

"Three... Two... One..." Erica counted down, smiling widely.

While some people were writing, they heard some bangs from outside the ball. Umbridge began walking to see what it was. Everyone had stopped writing now, they were all looking at the door to see what was up.

"Is this what you were planning?" Ron asked, turning to his sister.

Erica nodded as she looked at the door. A small firework was flying around in Umbridge's face before it flew into the hall and exploded. That's when Fred and George flew in on their brooms, fireworks going everywhere and the students papers went flying.

"Right on time guys!" Erica called up to them.

Fred and George smiled at her while they continued with their work. Soon enough, they had knocked down all of Umbridge's rules. They had went out to the courtyard and made a firework that made a massive 'W'. Everyone was out in the courtyard cheering. Even the teachers. They'd been in the courtyard for a while when Harry fell to the floor.

"Harry? What's going on?" Hermione asked him.

Harry was in a daze, he wasn't listening.

"Harry." Parker tapped his shoulder.

"Is he having one of those visions again?" Ron asked.

After a few minutes he stood up, clearly panicked.

"What's wrong?" Parker asked, "What did you see?"

"Sirius." Harry whispered while he began running inside, the Herd following him. Neville, Ginny and Luna followed as well.

"You guys go to the fireplace in Umbridge's office. We'll join you after, we're going to distract them" Neville informed them as they split off from the Herd.

"Hurry!" Parker called out to them while they ran.

They burst into the empty office and rushed over to the fireplace.

"Alert the order if you can." Harry told them.

"Are you mental? We're going with you." Parker told him.

"I have to go alone." Harry stated.

"No chance, we're going with you and that's final." Ron was adamant.

"We're in this together." Hermione added.

"That, you are." They heard Umbridge from behind them.

"You've got to be kidding me." Erica sighed.

Soon enough, they all were being held by the Inquisitor Squad. Harry was in a chair.

"You were going to Dumbledore, weren't you?" Umbridge asked.

"No, I-" Harry began but got slapped by Umbridge.

"He's telling the truth." Erica shouted, struggling against Goyle's grip.

"Well.. If you all aren't going to tell me what I wish to know.. I guess the cruciatus curse should do." Umbridge tilted her head.

"That's illegal." Parker looked at Umbridge.

"What Cornelius doesn't know, can't hurt him." Umbridge said sweetly, sitting a picture of Fudge face down so he couldn't see.

"Alright! We'll tell you!" Parker blurted out.

Harry looked at her in shock as Snape walked through the door.

"You requested for me, professor?" Snape asked, obviously not wanting to be there.

Parker gave Harry a look to say, 'I've got this.'

"Snape, yes! The time has come for answers, whether they want to give them to me or not. Have you brought the veitaserum?" Umbridge looked at Snape.

"I'm afraid I've run out. You used the last on Miss Chang." Snape reminded her,"Unless of course you want to poison him in which I'd be most ebliged."

"He's got Padfoot. He's got Padfoot at the place where it's hidden." Harry told Snape.

Snape froze where he was, knowing what Harry meant.

"Padfoot? Snape what is Padfoot?" Umbridge questioned him.

"I have no idea." Snape shook his head slightly before walking off.

Umbridge turned from the door before aiming her wand at Harry.

"Don't hurt him. We'll tell you what Dumbledores secret weapon is." Parker sighed.

Of course, no one knew what Parker meant other than herself.

"Take me then. Take me to it." Umbridge ordered them.

"I'm afraid my friends and I are the only ones that know where it is. We can only show you if you come alone." Parker stated.

Umbridge rolled her eyes and dismissed the Inquisitorial Squad. They then lead her into the Forbidden Forest.

"How much further?" Umbridge asked.

"Not far." Parker shook her head.

They then stopped because they saw the herd of centaurs approach.

"Lower your weapons!" Umbridge ordered them.

"They won't listen to you, Professor." Parker put her hands behind her back while a centaur who Erica recognised as Firenze from back in first year shot an arrow at Umbridge.

"Filthy half-breed!" Umbridge yelled, raising her wand,"Encarcerous!"

Firenze then had rope going around his neck, causing him to choke and fall to the ground. One centaur helped him out while the others charged forward and grabbed her.

"Tell them I mean no harm!" Umbridge practically begged.

"Sorry professor. I must not tell lies." Parker shook her head while the centaurs dragged Umbridge away.

"How did you know they'd be here?" Hermione asked.

"I've told them about Umbridge. They hate her as much as we do." Parker shrugged.

"How will we get to the ministry in time?" Neville asked, looking at the faraway castle.

"I think I have an idea." Luna told them.

Luna then led them to the Thestrals, they rode on them until they arrived in London. Which it was night by now. They all ran into the Ministry before arriving in the Prophecy room.

"How do we know which one it is?" Erica asked, looking at the identical orbs.

"I don't know." Ginny shook her head while Harry walked on, counting.

"He should be here." Harry sighed.

"Harry, this has your name on it." Neville pointed at the small prophecy ball.

Harry walked over to it and picked it up as a masked figure walked over, not getting to close.

"Harry!" Luna brought him out of his daze while the figure continued walking.

"Where's Sirius?" Harry questioned.

"You know, you should really know when to tell the difference between dreams." The Death Eater took off his mask, only to reveal Lucius, "And reality."

They all raised their wands and pointed them at him as he continued forward.

"You saw only what the Dark Lord wanted you to see." Lucius told them,"Now, give me the prophecy."

"You do anything to us, and I'll break it." Parker threatened.

That's when they heard a female laugh coming from behind Lucius.

"They know how to play! And look, it's itty, bitty, baby, Potter." The female taunted.

Bellatrix Lestrange.

"Bellatrix Lestrange." Neville spoke wearily.

"Neville Longbottom, is it? How's mum and dad?" Bellatrix taunted the boy.

"Better now they're about to be avenged." Neville tried to lunge forward at her but Erica held him back.

"Children.. Let's all calm down. All we want? Is that prophecy." Lucius stated.

"Why did Voldemort need me to come get this?" Harry asked.

"You dare speak his name?" Bellatrix gasped.

"We all dare to speak his name. He doesn't scare us." Parker spoke to who she thought was her aunt.

"It's alright they're just curious, aren't you?" Lucius asked, approaching slowly,"Prophecies can only be collected by those about whom they are made."

That's when they looked around and realised among the tall shelves, they were completely surrounded.

Everyone turned to the Death Eaters, their wands pointed at them.

"Haven't you always wondered, what was the connection between you and the Dark Lord? Why he was unable to kill you, when you were just an infant? Don't you want to know the secret, behind your scar? All the answers are there, if you'd just give me the Prophecy." Lucius held out his hand to Harry.

"I've waited fourteen years." Harry sighed.

"I know." Lucius stated.

"I guess I can wait a little longer, now!" Harry yelled boldly.

"Stupefy!" Everyone flung the Death Eaters back before running.

Lucius apparated in front of them, hand outstretched before Harry, Hermione and Ron went one way, Luna, Neville and Ginny going the other way and Parker and Erica running forward as Lucius apparated away to get the prophecy. While the others fought their Death Eaters, Bellatrix apparated in front of Parker and Erica.

Parker quickly pointed her wand at her, along with Erica, "Aunt Bella, finally we meet. Mums told me all about you."

"Aw, did you're little friends not tell you yet?" Bellatrix asked, not afraid of them.

"Tell me what? That you've hurt their families?" Parker scoffed.

"I guess blood traitors are great liars, aren't they?" Bellatrix taunted them,"Is the little weasel going to tell her?"

Erica turned her head away, she made a promise and didn't want to break it.

"She isn't a blood traitor. She's my friend." Parker spat.

Bellatrix rolled her eyes before looking at Erica,"Either you tell her now or I will."

Parker glanced at Erica before back at Bellatrix, "Tell me what?"

Erica shook her head causing Bellatrix to laugh before turning to Parker,"I'm your mother!"

It was as if all the memories from before Parker was at the Manor came back. She remembered it all, with Bellatrix and her father. She was her mother.

Parker blinked a few times before she lifted her wand and flung Bellatrix back, "Levicorpus!"

Parker quickly grabbed Erica's wrist and began running with her. Why wasn't Parker mad at Erica? That's when they ran into everyone else and they kept looking around. That's when Ginny saw the beginning of a Death Eater apparating.

"Reducto!" Ginny yelled, a spell firing from her wand.

All the prophecys began falling, and the stands started towering down.

"Get back to the door!" Harry shouted while they ran.

Neville began pulling Luna with him as she was almost mesmerized by the light. The falling shelves until they ran and fell through an open door, tumbling to the ground. Just before they hit the bottom, something levitated them a few centimetres of the ground before dropping them. They all got up and brushed themselves off.

"Department of Mysteries. Got that bit right, didn't they?" Ron joked.

They all began to walk forward to a strange stone construction. Nobody really knew what it was.

"The voices. Can you hear what they're saying?" Harry asked them

"There aren't any voices, Harry." Hermione shook her head.

"I hear them too." Luna nodded.

"As do I." Parker added.

"I think it's a situation like the Thestrals. What does this have to do with death though?" Erica wondered as they got closer.

Harry soon looked up, "Get behind me!"

But it was too late, black smoke surrounding everyone, they couldn't see anything. When the smoke cleared, all the Death Eaters had taken one of them each, leaving Harry standing with the prophecy.

Lucius soon walked up to Harry, tutting, "Did you actually believe, the way you were truly naive enough to think children stood a chance against us."

They all struggled against the harsh grip of the Death Eaters as Lucius spoke again.

"I'll make this simple for you potter. Give me the prophecy now." Lucius demanded, hand out,"Or watch your friends die."

Harry looked around at all of his friends.

"Don't give it to him Harry!" Neville spoke out.

Bellatrix quickly put her wand up against his neck, shushing him. Harry looked down at the prophecy in his hand and slowly handed it to a smirking Lucius. Lucius held it up and looked at it as a white light came form behind him. When Lucius turned around he was met by Sirius.

"Get away from my Godson." Sirius told him before punching him, causing him to fall.

Soon enough, the whole Order came, taking out the Death Eaters so the teens were free. Tonks grabbed the girls while Lupin grabbed the boys, taking them down away from everything. Sirius remained with Harry behind a rock, slinging spells at the Death Eaters.

"Now listen to me, I want you to take the others and get out of here." Sirius told him.

"What? No, I'm staying with you." Harry shook his head.

"You've done beautifully, now let me take it from here." Sirius stated as Lucius and Rodolphus regained their footing on the rocks.

That's when Sirius and Harry began dueling with them.

"We've got to help." Parker sighed, looking at everything that was going on.

"No, it's far to dangerous and I'm not letting any of you back up there." Moody told them before flinging a Death Eater back with his stick.

Parker looked up while her mother appeared and shouted a spell, pointing it at Sirius. That's when it happened, he smiled back at them one last time before falling through the misty veil and... He was gone. Parker froze, Sirius was gone and Harry let out a scream, Lupin had to hold him back. A few silent tears fell from Erica's face as she watched Harry break free from Lupin and chase after Bellatrix. She'd already lost one friend today and she wasn't willing to lose another. She bolted past Kingsley and Moody, following Harry. Parker looked at everyone before she quickly got up and chased after Harry and Erica.

"I killed Sirius Black! Coming to get me?!" Bellatrix laughed while the three teens ran after her.

"Crucio!" Harry yelled, knocking Bellatrix over.

"He was your family!" Parker pointed her own wand at Bellatrix while her and Erica caught up with Harry.

Erica didn't raise her wand as Harry cocked his head, still casting the curse.

"Harry, if you kill her you'll be no better than her or Voldemort!" Erica yelled at them.

Thats when a chill went through the trio and Bellatrix laughed. As Bellatrix slid into a fireplace, Voldemort appeared in front of them.

"God, I jinxed it." Erica muttered, now raising her wand.

Before Voldemort could so anything, Dumbledore showed up out of the fireplace. He used his magic to slide the children off and behind a pillar as the duel between them began.

"Are you guys okay?" Parker asked.

Erica nodded as she peered around the corner to watch as sparks flew around. Soon enough, Voldemort let out a snake that was made of fire and it was going for Dumbledore. Dumbledore lashed his wand at the beast, causing it to hit its head on the roof, causing the pillar to crumble nearer the top. Dumbledore then spread the fire back at Voldemort who diminished it quickly. After dueling for a little more, Voldemort smashed all the windows in the Ministry. He then put his hands together and the shards went right for Dumbledore and the teens. Dumbledore used his quick thinking and created a shield. When the shards past through it, they turned to grains of sand, much to Voldemort's dismay. Voldemort knew he was defeated, for now. So he quickly vanished. That's when Harry started to shake, falling to the ground.

"Harry?" Parker knelt down to him.

Erica looked down at him before looking back to where Voldemort was. He hadn't left, had he? Dumbledore kneeled down to see what was wrong when Harry's eyes changed. It was Voldemort's eyes.

"You've lost old man." Possessed Harry told them.

"Harry, you're strong. Come on." Parker told him.

"Harry.. It isn't how you're alike. It's how you're not." Dumbledore stated while the others teens came through.

That's when Harry started getting flashbacks of him and the Herd. All the way from 1st year to now, "You're the weak one. And you'll never know love, or friendship. And I feel sorry for you." Harry spoke.

The rest of the teens stood watching the scene for afar, all concerned for their friend. Harry then flipped over as the black smoke left his body and stood over the boy on the ground.

"You're a fool, Harry Potter." Voldemort stated, bending down,"And you will lose everything.

The Ministry then started piling in, and the Minister saw Voldemort as he disappeared, finally realising that he's back.
