Violet's pov

"It's time! Neville called for the order. Lightning has struck Hogwarts." George announced walking in with Grace and Fred. Remus held my hand, I squeezed it and went upstairs to Roscoe's room. Andromeda rubbed my arm as I walked through his room. I kneeled over his bed. Slowly, I brushed his hair off his forehead and kissed his cheek. "Daddy, Uncle Monny, Harry, Draco, Grace and Mommy, love you so much Roscoe. I will try to be back as soon as possible. I love you so much my sweet boy." I whispered, choking up on my words.

I kissed his forehead and walked out of his room. Grace kissed his head before joining us in the kitchen. "Grace," I started. "Mom, Freddie already tried. I want to fight. Besides, I need to kick Uncle Lucius' ass for hurting dad." Grace smirked. We apprated to Hogwarts where we met the rest of the Weasleys. "I still think we should have made Harry's code name Scarhead." Grace whispered. "Grace Ivy Black, not the time." I nudged her. I saw Draco, he ran into my arms.

"Love," I whispered, kissing his head. "I missed you so much. Harry and I were miserable without your hugs and kisses." He laughed. "I suppose you two could live without me then?" Grace teased while Draco hugged and kissed her head. "Is Scarhead in there?" Grace asked Draco. "Yes, we are waiting for the code word." Draco explained. "It seems you have a bit of a security problem headmaster!" Harry shouted from behind the Great Hall doors. "And it's quite extensive!" Harry announced, Kingsley opened the doors and we all walked in.

McGonagall smiled at us, Harry smiled at me before turning around. "How dare you stand where he stood!? Tell them what happened that night on the tower! TELL THEM! How you looked him in the eyes, a man who trusted you, and you killed him!" Harry shouted. Severus was looking around the room. He drew his wand along with the Carrows at Harry. McGonagall and I stood in front of Harry. "Take care of the snake. I'll handle the twins." I whispered to McGonagall, she nodded.

While McGonagall fired spells at Severus I shot curses at the twins, stunning them. Severus directed McGonagall's spells at the twins and killed them. "Violet, light would be useful." McGonagall smiled. I summoned fire to my hands and lit the candles around the Great Hall. Harry ran to me and hugged me, I held him close. "I'm so glad you're okay." I whispered, kissing his head. A girl started to scream in the corner of the room, as she stopped another girl screamed.

"Students of Hogwarts, I know you are housing Harry Potter. I wish to make a deal with you. Hand him over, and I will leave your school unharmed. Refuse to and I will make sure every man, woman and child who tries to protect him will die. You have one hour." Voldemort's voice echoed in the room. Everyone looked around the room, Harry's grip tightened on my shirt. "What is everyone waiting for?! Someone grab him!" Millicent shouted. Grace, Draco, Ginny, Ron, Hermione and the rest of the order shielded Harry. "Would you like burn marks to go with your Dark Mark?" Grace seethed, the girl backed up.

"Violet?" McGonagall asked. "Right, first and second years follow Neville to the room of requirement. Neville, get him here, now. Slytherins, if your parents are death eaters, and you don't wish to fight on Hogwarts side follow Neville as well. All those who do wish to fight stay here. Any other years wishing to leave follow Neville." I announced, few students left and followed Neville. "Potter, what do you need?" McGonagall asked. "Time, more time." Harry responded. Harry, Ron, Hermione, and Draco took off. Luna ran up to me. "Hey Luna? Did you need something?" I asked.

"Violet, when I was at the Manor. Regulus was there, I know you don't believe the Death Eaters when they say he is one. But he is, he made a deal. He becomes a Death Eater to ensure the safety of you, Grace, Draco, and Roscoe." Luna explained. "He also wished me to tell you he loves you a lot." She smiled and took off. Regulus, you absolute wanker. "You-Know-Who, what do you think he's going to do?" Flitwik asked. "His name is Voldemort! Fillus, you might as well use it. He's going to try to kill you either way." McGonagall sternly stated.
