I ran into Draco's room and scanned his bookshelf for something on apparation.  I found one and I flipped through it for a quick summary.

I flipped to a page that had Summary as the heading.  I read it as fast as possible.

Consentrate on your destination, clear your mind of everything else.  Picture yourself in the place you want to go to and think about being there.

Simple enough.  I focused on Hogwarts, I thought of me standing right outside the large oak doors.  Of course, I'd never been there so it was hard to picture.  I heard a pop and felt like I was being sucked through a straw.  When I opened my eyes, I saw Voldy leading his buddies, but no one from the good side.  By the way, I fully support Harry.  People started to walk out of the castle when they noticed Voldemort coming towards them.  I saw Draco and I ran up to him and hugged him.

"Draco!"  I yelled.

"Ivory?  What're you doing here?  It isn't safe!"  He told me, hugging me back.

"I don't want you to die."  I started to cry.

"Shhh. . .  It'll be okay."  He said, comforting me.

"Harry Potter, is dead!"  Moldywarts yelled.

"No!"  A red headed girl screamed, running forward, but someone stopped her.

Voldemort gave his stupid speech and my parents looked at Draco and I.  My mother's eyes widened when she saw me.

"Ivory!"  People looked at her.  "Come here."  She said.

"Draco, Ivory.  Come on.  Draco."  My father said, looking desperate.

"Draco, come."  Mother said.

He grabbed my hand and pulled me with him.  I was to scared to object, so I followed.   Voldy hugged Draco and looked like he was going to hug me too.  I ducked under his arms and ran after Draco.  Mother hugged me and Father grabbed my hand.

Harry was dead, Moldy won, Draco and my parents were okay, but on the wrong side.  Life couldn't get worse.  People were crying and staring at me.  I guess they were shocked to see an seven year old in the middle of a battle.  A boy named Neville Longbottom stepped up and made a speech.

Just then, Harry rolled out of a really big man's arms and the battle picked up again.  People were pushing to join the fight and I slipped under their arms and made my way into the castle.  I heard Draco calling after me and I felt him pick me up and run to safety with me.  I saw Aunt Bella coming towards Draco and I.  I picked up a random wand and yelled the first spell that came to my mind.

"Expelliarmus!"  She went flying backwards and I ran.

I couldn't see Draco, but I had to get away.  Another Death Eater shot a spell at me, I dodged and yelled "Stupify!"

I saw green light zipping towards me.  I ducked and ran as a wall came crashing down.  I dove behing a pillar and I saw Draco by my side in seconds.

"Ivory, how did you -"  He was cut off by another jet of green light.  He pulled away from the open and threw himself protectivly over me.  He turned and shot a nonverbal spell over him shoulder.

"Move!"  I yelled and shoved him away, I heard a crack and I knew our hiding spot was about to be demolished.

I rolled the other way.

"Ivory!  Ivory?"  Draco called franically, moving the rocks to try to find me.

"I'm fine."  I said as I climbed over the rubble.

I hopped down and Draco and I ran.  A Death Eater stopped Draco and they began to duel.  I felt a curse hit me from behind.  I fell to the floor and screamed in pain.  It felt as though white hot knives were being dragged slowly down my body.  I saw Draco dying dozens of different ways.  I continued to scream.  Then, just as quickly as it had started, it stopped.  I saw a the girl with red hair shoot a spell at my captor.  I lay there, breathing for a few seconds.  The girl crouches by my side to see if I'm okay.

"Thank you."  I say, pull myself up and run over to Draco.

"Stupify!" I hit the one that's dueling Draco.

We hear a bang and Draco pulls me into a corner.  He throws himself over me so I won't get hurt.  We stay like that for about two minutes.  The yells stop.  Draco picks himself up and then helps me up.

"It's over."  He says as a tear escapes from his eye.

I run over and hug him.
