Hermione's POV

Harry... was dead. These words found their way into my ears but couldn't be taken by my brain. Yes, I saw Harry in front of me, in hagrids arms. But it had to be a mistake. Harry couldn't be dead. No.
Voldemort stood there, laughing. It couldn't be over. People around me started to move and speak. Ginny screamed. Ron cried, over Harry and still over fred. I just turned, I couldn't help it, to Draco. I needed him now. It looks like he was crying too.
No noise arrived in my brain. How? Why? Why was harry dead? How could we survive now, without him and Dumbledore?
"Harry Potter is dead!" I finally heart voldenorts voice. "You lost. You can give up now. You fought well, but now it's the end. We allow everyone who want to join us to do this. Everyone."
Yeah sure. As if they would say yes to for example me or Ron or any other weasley. Voldemort smiled badly and looked over the crowd. "Anybody?" He turned his head and stopped at Draco. From my place I could see that he shrieked. Don't, please don't go to him! I begged silently. "Draco." Voldemort said with a soft voice. We're expecting you here." He smiled. I felt goosebumps running over my back. I saw dracos parents standing next to voldemort. They tried to move Draco to come over to them. Much was was a mess but one voice kept begging that Draco would stay where he was.
With the minutes voldenorts smile became weaker until he didn't smile at all. "Draco" he said now with a cold, unfriendly voice. "Come here. Now. This is your place. You know it!" He spoke silently and his voice was ice cold. Draco still didn't move. After a while he broke the eye contact with voldemort and looked down. Then he looked to his parents and shook his head as if he wanted to apologize. He stayed. He stayed and didn't join voldemort this time! I looked at voldemort and saw again hagrid with Harry in his... wait. There was nobody in hagrids arms. "Nothings over!" Suddenly a well known voice said. My heart jumped. I looked everywhere and then I saw him. Harry stood, wand at the ready, a few steps next to voldemort. The battle wasn't over at all.

Draco's POV

Wait? Harry Potter just... saved my life? How could that be? I coughed and then sit up and looked around. Next to me was Goyle, he coughed too his eyes were closed. A few metres away I saw Potter, Weasley and Hermione, sitting together at a walk and coughing. Then it hit me. Crabbe. Crabbe was gone. Killed by his own magical fire. Tears came into my eyes. Although he was stupid and mean, he was my friend. And he didn't deserve such a death. I closed my eyes and tried to hold the tears back. After a while I opened them again and stood up carefully. The others still sat together and had their eyes closed. Goyle stood up too and took his normal place behind me. "Thank you potter." I said. Potter looked up and nodded. "I'm sorry about crabbe." He answered. I nodded too. I looked one last time to the room of requirement and said good bye to crabbe. I took a deep breath and with goyle right behind me I walked towards the great hall.

A few hours later I saw Potter dead in hagrids arms. My fear came true. There was bo chance to defeat voldemort now. I heart voices and suddenly my name. Vildemort. "You belong here." No I don't!
I didn't want to go to voldemort. Out of my eye corner I saw Hermione. She looked at me with big brown eyes. I could feel her fear as if it was mine. The minutes went by and my gear free bigger but I couldn't move. I stayed where I was, looking directly into voldemorts eyes.
"Draco." He suddenly said. "Come here now. This is your place. And you know it." NO! A voice inside of me shouted. Suddenly everything was clear as if voldemort said some kind of magic words. I thought about hermiones last letter. I'm still this boy ! My place wasn't next to voldemort. It was next to Hermione. To be with her. I broke the eye contact with voldemort and looked at my parents. I tried to apologize.
I was in danger now, I knew it. But I choose what would make me happy.
