Boat House

Chapter 23
_________
"I know where he is" Harry said.

I hugged Draco and said my goodbyes. As I was beginning to turn away he pulled me back into his arms.

"I love you" He told me.

"I love you even more"

"When this is over I want you to marry me"

"What?"

"Marry me Ivy Clarke, ever since that Summer ball when you introduced yourself as Jessica Sharp I fell in love with you, out first kiss on the stairs made me sure of it even if you weren't sure of it at the time, I want to spent the rest of my life with you Ivy, so please come back to me when this is over, promise me."

"I promise"

I got closer and kissed him. I had dreamed of this moment, it's not what I had imagined but it was better. My arms wrapped around his neck and his arms went up my back. My legs became weak and I knew I would have to pull away sometime but I couldn't.

"I'm sorry to interrupt what seems like a lovely kiss but Ivy we have to go" Hermione cut in.

"You had to go and ruin it didn't you Granger" Draco snapped. I laughed and gave him one last kiss goodbye. This could be the real goodbye though. Hermione grabbed my hand and we went off.

We all ran to the boat house. The halls were full of dead and alive bodies. We all had our wands out for any attack. Harry pulled me back as a Death Eater through a spell at me and it just missed. The courtyard was full of rubble from the castle. Blue, green and red lights coming from peoples wands. Giants with pitchforks were killing the innocent.

He saw us and tried to kill us but we took shelter under a huge metal pot. We carried on running we were stopped by spiders and began running the other way. I was sending spells at anyone that was dangerous. We were jumping over wood and stones trying hard to not get hit.

We saw a Death Eater werewolf hovering over someone's body sucking their blood.

"No!" Hermione screamed. She sent a spell straight at him and he was thrown straight across the corridor and into some stone columns. The dead body was Lavender Brown.

We managed to get to the front of the courtyard but thousands of dementors were charging at us. Someone sent a Patronus at them making them fly away. When we turned back it was Aberforth. That must of been one powerful memory. I shot a smile at him which he returned and carried on running. That doesn't seem like a man who has given up to me.

We ran down millions of steps until we finally reached the boat house. When we got there we could hear Voldemort and Snape talking. They were about the elder wand.

"It answers to you and you only" Snape tells him.

"Does it?" Voldemort asks.

"My Lord?"

"The wand does it truly answer to me? You're a clever man Severus surely you must know, where does it's true loyalty lie?"

"With you of course my Lord"

I could just about see through the window that he was playing with his fingers behind his back making it clear he was lying.

"The elder wand cannot serve me properly because I am not it's true master, the elder wand belongs to the wizard who kills its last owner, you killed Dumbledore Severus, while you live the elder wand cannot truly be mine, you've been a good and faithful servant Severus but only I can live forever"

"My Lord" Snape pleased, but it was to late. He hit the wall. It made me jump. I knew he was dead. My Headmaster is dead. If it wasn't for Ron I would of given it away that we were there. He put his hand over my mouth to muffle my cry's.

"Nagini, Kill!" Voldemort orders.

The snake kept biting at him. Once we heard the noise of apparation we went in to see what had happened to Snape. I saw him laying on the floor, he was covered in blood. He was crying.

"Take them, take them" Snape tells him. He want Harry to take his tears. He looked at Hermione and she searched her bag for a flask. She found one and through it to him. He took his tears and Snape told him to look at him.

"You have your mothers eyes" Were Snapes last words. He took his last breath and he was gone. All of a sudden a wind hit and it was just like before in the great hall. Voldemort was speaking.

"You have fought validity but in vein I do not wish this every drop of magical of magical blood spilt is a terrible waste I there for command my forces to retreat in their absence dispose of your dead with dignity, Harry Potter and Ivy Clarke I now speak directly to you, on this night you have allowed your friends to die for you rather than face me yourself there is no greater dishonour one of you join me in the forbidden forest and confront your fate if you do not do this I shall kill every last man, woman and child who try's to conceal you from me"

Then it went silent.
