As we apperated into Hogwarts it was silent and cold. There was no life, not a soul around. I knew most people did not come back to Hogwarts this year but still there must be some. We were all there, me and the Twins, Remus, Kingsley, Mr and Mrs Weasley and Bill and Fleur. There were no paintings on the walls, no candles lit. The castle was a ghost of its former self.
“Well this doesn’t seem too bad.” I joked out loud. I was shh’ed by Remus. I blew out a loud sigh, blowing some hair out of my face. Two heads one ginger one frizzy and brown looked around a stone pillar.
“Oh my dear boy!” Mrs Weasley whispered and ran to hug her son, Ron. They both rushed forward.
“Quickly come with us. Harry is going to confront Snape in front of the entire school.” Hermione whispered. We all followed silently towards the great hall. It made me sad to see the place that was once filled with such joy now filled with sadness. “Snapes control over the school has gone on too long. He even has control over the teachers; most of them are scared of him. Who would blame them?” Hermione told us as we rushed through the corridor. Even deserted I loved to see the place, it brought back old memories. We finally came to the huge wooden doors of the great hall. We stood there as Snapes dry shell voice could be heard.
“If anyone knows where Mr Potter is, step forward…Now.” His dulcet tones echoed the hall. We heard a huge amount of gasps and whispers and we took that as our signal. Ron and Hermione pushed the doors opened. Like something out of an adventure book we all stepped forward into the great hall, all in a line looking confident. We all had out wands at the ready. Snape was dressed in his usual black cloak, two deatheaters standing either side of him. Harry dressed in Gryffindor robes and was stood in the middle of the four houses, the teachers standing at the back with us.
“I think you have a problem with your security Headmaster.” Harry smirked. Snape stood there calm and composed. “How dare you stand where he stood? Why don’t you tell them what happened that night?” Harry shouted at him. Snapes confident structure seemed to crumble. The two deatheaters disapperated, but Snape stayed and drew his wand. The students screamed and ran to each end of the room. As Harry drew his wand Professor McGonagall stood forward. I personally had never witnessed her duel before; part of me prayed she was good. A blue light burst from Snapes wand, pointing towards Harry. Immediately McGonagall battled with him. Their orange and blue sparks met. Their wands each flicking in a heated battle, moving towards each other. Harry stood there helpless like the rest of us, we could only watch. McGonagall was forcing Snape back, further and further until he fell at the steps. Snape wiped and turned until he was black smoke. He trashed violently in the air and then he was gone. He burst through the window and probably off to his master. The whole hall cheered and the Professor flicked her wand and the great hall was once again lit with candles. Kingsley turned to us all as McGonagall talked to Harry.
“Voldermort is coming; we need to evacuate the younger students. The rest of you spread out across the castle.” He said and people ran off to various places. He grabbed the three of us by the arm. “We need to protect the secret passage ways.” He asked us.
“Leave it to us. It’s our specialty.” We all replied at the same time. The twins did it a lot but now I was really one of them. We all ran off down the corridors.
“Now the One eye witch passage way is blocked now by rubble as is the passage by Ravenclaw tower. The others would be guarded the one to watch is the one by the clock tower." Fred said as we ran up the spiral stairs. I was getting out of breath; I had forgotten how many stairs Hogwarts was made up off. As we ran something caught my eye. A bright blue shell was forming around the castle.
“Look.” I gasped as I stopped and looked out of the stone window.
“That should give us some time.” George nodded as he looked as well.
