Athena with her arm still bandaged enters a corridor where up on a stairwell balcony, Hermione and Ron are talking. They stop when they see Athen and lean over the railing.
Athena: All right there, Ron?
Ron: All right? You?
Athena: [as she shrugs] All right. Hermione?
Hermione: [smiling] Never better.
Athena: are you sure your hair looks a bit messy [Hermione rolls her eyes fondly at Athena, whilst Athena smiles]
Everyone smiles and laughs at Athena and her friends.
We see the Great Hall, full of students eating and talking with each other. There are green and silver banners with the Slytherin symbol above their heads, already indicating the house with the most points. Dumbledore gives a slight nod to professor McGonagall, who then clinks her spoon to her glass, to ask attention from the students. The crowd falls silent. Dumbledore stands up and speaks with his magically magnified voice.
Dumbledore: Another year, gone! And now, as I understand it, the house cup needs awarded and the points stand thus. In fourth place: Gryffindor, with 312 points! [There is a medium applause from the crowd.] In third place: Hufflepuff, with 352 points! [The applause for Hufflepuff is slightly louder than the clapping for Gryffindor.] Second: Ravenclaw, with 426 points! [Applause again, this time with a slight cheer from some students.] And in first place, with 472 points: Slytherin house! [A loud roar rises from the Slytherin table, as students stand up and clap for themselves. Hermione scowls with her hand to her cheek; Snape applauds the students of his house]
Draco: Nice one, mate. [sneers at Ron]
Narcissa raises her eyebrow at Draco, then smacks Lucius round the head "it's your fault he's acting this way." Andromeda looked over at Narcissa telling Lucius off and giggles a bit, Ted looks over at his wife and kisses her forehead.
Dumbledore: Yes, well done Slytherin, well done Slytherin. However, recent events must be taken into account and I have a few last minute points to award. [Some faces at the Gryffindor table rise hopefully.] To Miss Hermione Granger, for the cool use of intellect while others were in grave peril: fifty points! :[Hermione looks surprised, while the other Gryffindor students applaud her.]
Everyone cheers for Hermione.
Athena: [giving Hermione a hug] Good job. [Malfoy, Crabbe and Goyle don't like what's happening. Hermione looks at Hagrid, who looks back to her with a proud smile.]
Dumbledore: Second, to Mr. Ronald Weasley, for the best played game of chess that Hogwarts has seen these many years: fifty points! [Ron looks even more surprised than Hermione did and the Gryffindor table is applauding even louder.]
"GO RON" cheered the great hall.
Dumbledore: And third, to Ms. Athena Potter, for pure love and outstanding courage, I award Gryffindor house: sixty points!
James ran to Athena and spun her in the air as the great hall cheered and congratulated her.
The Gryffindors cheer again, this time even louder than before. Malfoy has a cringing look on his face, while Athena sees a proud, smiling professor McGonagall at the teacher's table. Hermione, who has done some quick math, whispers to her fellow students.
Hermione: We're tied with Slytherin! [Now, the Gryffindors look really hopeful, as Dumbledore hasn't finished talking yet.]
Dumbledore: And finally: it takes a great deal of bravery to stand up to your enemies, but a great deal more to stand up to your friends. I award ten points to Neville Longbottom!
"NEVILLE!!!!" Cheered Frank, Alice, Lily, Dorcas, Marlene, Athena, Hermione, Ron, the marauders, the Weasleys and the Prewett twins. The rest of the great hall cheered too.
Dumbledore: [Neville can't believe what he just heard and the Gryffindors that heard Hermione's whisper are cheering the loudest. Malfoy looks quite uncertain now.] Assuming that my calculations are correct, I believe that a change of decoration is in order! [He claps and motions his hands towards the Slytherin banners, where they flap heavily, until the banners have changed completely to red and gold with the Gryffindor symbol] Gryffindor wins the House Cup!
The past generation all cheer for Gryffindor apart from some slytherins. Regulus and Narcissa politely clapped getting dirty looks from their fellow classmates.
The Great Hall explodes with applause, not only from the Gryffindors, but also from the Ravenclaws and the Hufflepuffs, because they are glad that, for the first time in seven years, someone other than Slytherin has won the House Cup. Hagrid can't help himself to also cheer, and all students except the Slytherins throw their hats in the air, while Malfoy angrily throws his on the table in defeat. The Gryffindors around Athena are all congratulating her and Athena smiles to Hagrid, who smiles back. There were screams coming from the Slytherin table, Athena looked over and saw their hair dyed red and gold. She turned to Fred and hugged him, he span her around as they laughed. The great hall burst into laughter.
All pranksters were on the floor laughing, Minnie and the other teachers sigh knowing Athena is going to take after her father and Fred and George were going to take after the Prewett twins.
McGonagall: FRED WEASLEY AND ATHENA POTTER [Minnie came storming over to them]
Fred/Athena: RUN
Fred and Athena ran out the hall hand in hand and started running down the corridor with an angry Minnie on their tail, the screen froze on Athena's laughing face.
