"What's my name doing on it?" Harry asked as he reached out to touch it.

"Harry, don't touch it!" Hermione objected, as Harry glared at her.

"Why not?"

"Yeah Harry, don't." Neville spoke, agreeing with Hermione.

"It's got my name on it!" Harry dismisses and takes it off the shelf.

"I warned you before that one day you would come to a sticky end Potter." Lucius Malfoy said as he approached the group, everyone drawing out their wands as he made himself known.

Two dozen other death eaters made themselves known behind Lucius as well. The students were outnumbered with the death eaters.

"Where's Sirius and Steven?" Harry asked, as Lucius laughed.

"We don't have them, if that's what you're asking."

"You never did, did you? It was all just a trick?" Harry asked, ready to fire a curse at Malfoy.

"The dark lord knows your weakness for heroics, Potter. All it took was a little nudge to get you here. Now give me that prophecy."

"What prophecy?" Harry asked, not realizing the orb in his hand was the prophecy.

"That prophecy, the one in your hand boy. Now hand it over or we'll have to use our wands on you."

Harry raised his wand as everyone else did, and they all waited for Harry to do something.

"Go ahead."

"Very brave of you Potter, or, are you very foolish?"

"Come and find out."

"Really Potter. You expect to defeat all of us with your little school friends? Now hand it over, and they won't have to die here."

"I haven't escaped Azkaban for this!" Another death eater shouted out, making their way to the front and turning out to be Bellatrix Lestrange. She raises her wand before Lucius lowers it back down.

"No! If the prophecy is smashed..."

"Take the boy. We'll see how dedicated Potter is when we torture him." Bellatrix cackled out, and Carson raised his wand.

"You even try it and I'll smash this thing." Harry tells them as he throws it in the air and catches it when it comes back down.

"So, what kind of prophecy are we talking about here?"

"Surely you jest Potter?"

"Not really. How come Voldemort wants it?"

"You dare speak the dark lord's name?"

"Oh Yeah we do. Voldemort. Voldemort. Voldemort, Voldy Moldy, snakeface, I could go on."

"Shut your mouth if you know what's good for you Marshall!"

"Silence! How dare you mutter his name you filthy half blood!"

"Voldy is a halfblood too, Miss Bellatrixy. Did you know you're named after a muggle breakfast cereal? Funny how life works isn't it?" Carson asked, as Bellatrix raised her wand.

"Control yourself Bellatrix."

"What's so special about this prophecy anyways?"

Bellatrix started to shriek with laughter, as Lucius looked pleased. "You mean Dumbledore never told you the reason you bare that scar was hidden here?"

"What?"

The death eaters laughed more at this, as Harry whispered to Carson and Hermione, "When I give the signal, blast the shelves."

"So that's what took you so long. We wondered."

"But why did he need me to take it?"

"Only a person whom the prophecy is made for can remove it from it's shelf Potter, and the dark lord certainly couldn't get it himself."

"So he used me to do all his dirty work did he?"

"Precisely Potter."

"NOW!"

All seven of the students sent various spells at the shelves, knocking them over before breaking into a run.

"RUN!"

As the group ran, Malfoy caught Carson's arm, and Hermione noticed.

"Stupefy! Don't touch my boyfriend you bastard!"

"Hermione this is very off topic but you look really pretty in that outfit! And I love you! And thank you for saving my life!"

"Thanks love, but it really isn't the right time! Love you too though!"

"Stop them!" Malfoy called out, as the students left the room. They all got up and Hermione aimed her wand at the door. "Colloportus!"

Harry looked around to see that only Carson, Hermione, and Neville were with him.

"Where's everyone else?"

"Harry! They went the wrong way! We've got to go back for them!" They run out of the room and dive into another after seeing Bellatrix, and hide under several desks.

"They might have gone on to the hall." One death eater called out.

"Check under the desks."

Harry leapt out from his desk and shouted, "Stupefy!"

A jet of red light was seen and the death eater flew back into the wall. Hermione made a run for the exit and Bellatrix saw her. "Avada ke..."

Neville jumped out from his desk and casted, "Expelliarmus!" and Bellatrix's wand flew from her hands. Carson finished her off with a, "Stupefy!" and she fell back into the wall. As soon as she hit the wall a yell was heard from the next room.

"Impedimentia!" another death eater cast, as Hermione, Neville, Carson, and Harry were flown in different directions.

"We've got him!"

"Stupefy!"

"Petrificus totalus!" Carson shouted, aiming his wand at the death eater. He fell limp by Carson's feet.

The next death eater casted a silent curse, Hermione being his victim. Purple flames blast from his wand as her eyes go wide before she fell to the ground. Carson turned around to see her on the ground with her eyes closed. He didn't know if she was alive or not.
