Fighting Valiantly

Fighting Valiantly-

FRED'S POV

"George! Have you seen Maddie anywhere?" I asked frantically. George's back was pressed against mine and we were dueling two death eaters.

"Fred! I would appreciate it if you asked that later!" He howled. I was soon able to stun the death eater I was fighting and then I did the same to the one George was fighting. "Thanks for that." George panted.

"No problem-" I was cut short when a cold voice hissed in the air.

"You have fought valiantly. But in vain. I do not wish this. Every drop of magical blood spilt is a terrible waste. I therefore command my forces to retreat, and in their absence, dispose of your dead with dignity. Harry Potter, I now speak directly to you. On this night, you've allowed your friends to fie die for you, rather than facing me yourself. There is no greater dishonor. Join me in the Forbidden Forest and confront your fate. If you do not do this, I will kill every last man, woman, and child who tries to conceal you, from me."

"Blimey." George and I said at the same time. We both gave out a laugh. "Come on, let's go find Maddie." He said. We cautiously walked into the Great Hall, where tensions were high.

"Fred! George! Thank goodness you two are alright!" Mum squealed as she threw her arms around me. I hugged her back graciously and looked around. Dad was hugging Ginny. Bill, Percy and Charlie were in a huddle, whispering quietly.

"Mum, do you see Maddie around here?" I asked, trying to peek over her shoulder. She shook her head.

"No one's seen her Freddie, but don't worry, she's a strong girl. Now let Madame Pomfrey fix you up." Only then did I notice Madame Pomfrey standing next to George and I. She began to work on us as my eyes scanned the rows of dead bodies placed in the center of the Hall.

Remus and Tonks lay next to each other, as if they were asleep. There faces were flawless. "No.." Someone whispered. My head snapped up and I saw Harry, Hermione and Ron. I ran up to the three of them and hugged them.

"Fred... I'm sorry." Harry groaned. My heart sank. What was he sorry for?

"Wha- What do you mean?" I stuttered.

"Fred. Maddie-" He paused and let out a sob. "Maddie's dead."

"W-W-What!" I choked out. She's gone.. And I just got her back!

"Fenrir got her and.. it was horrible." Hermione let out moan and cried into Ron's shoulder. Tears were starting to fall from my eyes and I looked to George. He was tearing up and he clutched my shoulder.

"Here." Hermione piped up. "I've collected her tears. They're full of memories." She handed me a vial of glowing transparent liquid.

I nodded and then let out a strangled cried. I felt mum put her arms around me as everyone stared at me. "No.. No.. No!"

Maddie's pov

When I was younger, Jaime and I used to fool around a lot. She once told be that when you die, your whole life flashes before your eyes in 7 seconds flat. Man was I shocked when she was right. It was so fast.. like a blur, yet I could recall every moment. Life in elementary school, the day on the lake, the day I met the Weasleys, Hermione and Harry, falling in love with Fred, my first death, the wedding, and then my final death. When I opened my eyes, three heads were peering over me.
