"Ready?" Hermione asked, putting a hand on my shoulder.
I nodded, holding the Sword of Godric Gryffindor firmly in my hand, staring down at Hufflepuff's Cup. One of Voldemort's horcruxes. I put the tip of sword against the cup with my good arm, then stabbed it angrily. It made a screeching noise and black smoke erupted from it, eventually fading away.
"Well, there's another one down," Seamus stated.
-----------------------------------------------
"The last Horcrux," Harry said. "We don't have any idea what it is but I know it's at Hogwarts. We have to go. It's our last hope."
Hermione grudginly agreed.
-------------------------------------------------
We apparated outside of Hogsmeade, and walked in under the invisibility cloak A dementor sensed us and started floating towards us.
"Expecto Patronum" Harry whispered quickly and a stag patronus flew after the dementor, casting it away.
"Harry, are you stupid!" I whispered.
"Over there!" Death Eaters began shouting.
But an inkeeper came out and said, "What? You send dementors parading down my street and you bet I'm not going to let them neer my inn."
"But that was stag patronus! Harry Potter's patronus is a stag!"
'It was a goat you idiot!"
After some more bickering, Aberforth eventually won and the Death Eater walked away. Aberforth looked around in whispered. "Harry, I know you and your friends are there. Come in."
We looked at each other, and walked inside. Throwing off the cloak, we looked around. There was a picture of a girl. "That's Ariana Dumbledore, isn't it?" I asked.
"Yes," Aberforth confirmed.
"Do you know a way we could get into the castle?" Harry asked.
"Are you an idiot! The castle? You'll be killed the minute you step in!"
"But there's something we need to destroy in there if we're going to kill You-Know-Who."
"It's impossible! You should get back into hiding while you can. It's a suicide mission. People just need to realize that before more of them die."
"That's not what Albus would have wanted."
"Albus was a moron."
"ALBUS DUMBLEDORE WAS NOT A MORON." I screeched.
"Quite down! They'll hear you!" Aberfoth warned and I fell silent. "If you're so determined to get yourselves killed, hold on."
He nodded towards Ariana in the painting and she walked off down the road she was painted on. After a few minutes, she came back, and the portrait swung open to reveal a passage with Neville limping out of it.
"Neville!" I exclaimed and ran forward to hug him. "What happened to you?"
"The Carrow's made us practice the torture curse on each other. When I refused, they used it on me," he said rather calmly. "The others'll be excited to see all of you."
We crawled into the secret passage and followed Neville all the way into what I'm pretty sure was the Room of Requirment.
"I've been living in here. Ginny, Luna, and I restarted Dumbledore's Army."
A bunch of students were there and they cheered when they saw us. "Harry!"
They all looked at Harry expectantly, and a Hufflepuff spoke, "So what's the plan?"
