At the Main Entrance:

The scene was bleak. Bodies of students were strewn across the floor, while others still standing fought bravely, though injured.

Animated statues rushed forward to confront a werewolf, as students helped gather the wounded.

Professor McGonagall clenched her hands tightly, observing the tragic scene.

Septima Vector: Take the injured to the infirmary. We'll handle the Inferi.

Students: Yes, Professor.

Hermione felt the weight of sadness as she looked at the bodies. They were members of Dumbledore's Army. She knew they had fought courageously, but they had fallen.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Under Professor Vector's leadership, students raised their wands, unleashing a torrent of fire spells on the advancing Inferi.

AVIECTUM IGNIS! IGNAE SPHAERA! INCENDIO!

Meanwhile, Hermione led the DA members to face the werewolf.

Hermione: When I give the signal, everyone cast the explosive spell.

The others nodded in silence. The werewolf charged fiercely, smashing through the statues attempting to stop it.

Parvati: Hermione, is it time?

Hermione: Not yet.

The werewolf destroyed the last statue and was just a few meters away.

Ron: HERMIONE, WE NEED TO ATTACK NOW!

Hermione: WAIT.

As the werewolf was almost upon them, the ground beneath it turned into a sticky swamp. Hermione had used one of the Weasleys' Portable Swamps.

The creature sank to its waist, struggling to move as its efforts became slow and heavy.

Hermione: NOW!

BOMBARDA! BOMBARDA! BOMBARDA!

The corridor echoed with the sound of spells. A cloud of smoke filled the area, and when it cleared, the werewolf lay destroyed, missing its upper body.

As the students celebrated, Hermione noticed with panic that the ceiling was about to collapse over Professor McGonagall. She ran, waving her wand frantically.

Moments Earlier:

A Death Eater had noticed McGonagall and turned toward her.

Death Eater: Professor McGonagall, it's been a while.

Minerva: I don't know who you are, but you will pay for what you've done.

Death Eater: Ah, my mistake. With this mask, it's hard to recognize me.

Minerva: I don't negotiate with Death Eaters.

The Death Eater removed his mask, revealing a face she immediately recognized.

Minerva: Mr. Cattermole... why did you kill the students? You were a Gryffindor!

Cattermole: Gryffindor or not, what difference does it make? I'm not the first, nor will I be the last from our house to join the Death Eaters. And these Muggle-borns? Death is the fate they deserve. They're contaminating our magical world.

Minerva: I won't be able to change your mind, will I?

McGonagall glanced at Hermione, Ron, and the other students.
