A roped Hagrid was walking was carrying a lifeless Harry in his arms while openly weeping. He was leading the procession of Death Eaters that were walking behind the Dark Lord.
"That's impossible," Thea whispered under her breath.
"NO!" McGonagall cried out in protest which caused several people to look over to her as they hadn't expected she would make a sound.
People cried out in horror, refusing to believe what had happened. They all shouted angrily at the Dark Lord and his death eaters.
Bellatrix cackled as if people's despair was the best thing in the world to her.
However as the yells of protest reached fever-pitch, Voldemort quickly silenced them all with a spell. Soon silence was forced upon them all.
Everyone watched in silence as Voldemort's cold hatred voice continued to speak over them all until a bright flash of light showed them, that Neville Longbottom has pushed his way to the front of the crowd and tried to attack the Dark Lord valiantly.
Voldemort immendaintly demanded who this mystery person was that dared to try and defy him.
Bellatrix revealed that he was a Longbottom, the son of Alice and Frank Longbottom. However, this new discovery seemed to pique the dark lord's interest. He knew that they needed purebloods on their side, they didn't want to spill the blood of purebloods.
Voldemort was preparing to show everyone by using Neville as the example what happened people who tried to defy him.
Thea let out a little shout of horror when Neville was struck with a spell.
A full body-bind curse.
It didn't take long for the Dark Lord to summon the sorting hat from the castle, announcing to all that there would be no more Sorting at Hogwarts. Instead, only one house would survive, and it would bear the emblem, shield, and colors of Salazar Slytherin.
The sorting hat was shoved forcibly on Neville's head as the Dark Lord lit it on fire. Several people in the watching crowd tried to raise their own wands however it didn't take long for the Death Eater to raise their own wands, keeping the fighters of Hogwarts at bay.
Neville was unable to move as he stood there rooted to the spot, aflame. However, before anyone else could respond to the new improvements, several things happened at once.
A loud roar sounded in the distance as the ground shook beneath their feet. War-cries could also be heard as however was coming, headed straight their way.
"HAGGER!"
A giant suddenly came lumbering around the side of the walls, its eyes immediately zeroing in on Hagrid. A similar cry could also be heard from the giants that had an alliance with the Dark Lord and his death eaters.
It didn't take long for chaos to rain down over them all.
Arrows rained down into the area, aimed meticously at the death eaters and the centaurs flooded the scene. The Death Eaters broke rank to try and avoid being hit, when Neville broke the curse he had been placed under and moved quickly the flaming hat falling to the ground.
Neville moved so quickly, it was almost a blur. He reached into the hat, pulling out a sword much to Thea's utter amazement. In only one swift swing, Nagini, the Dark Lord's beloved snake, fell to the ground, her head a few meters away, detached from her body.
Voldemort let out a scream of fury before turning to Neville. However, Hagrid's loud yell echoed over the screams, roars and thunderous stomps of the battling giants.
"HARRY! HARRY! WHERE'S HARRY!"
The fight continued into the Great Hall where spells were flying through the air left and right.
Thea raised her own wand high, sending several spells, one after the other, in the direction of Death Eaters. Her emotions only seemed to fuel her skill while fighting.
It didn't take long for the remaining Death Eaters, those not trampled by the centaurs or killed while fighting were quickly becoming overpowered. None of them could believe that Harry was actually dead, so they continued to fight, refusing to believe the truth.
Thea watched as Yaxley was slammed to the floor by George and Lee Jordan. Macnair was thrown across the room. While Ron and Neville took down Greyback, Aberfoth Dumbledore stunning Rookwood, while Arthur and Percy took on Thicknesse.
She was too busy focusing on the fight at hand but came distracted as an enraged shout caught everyone's attention.
Molly Weasley was absolutely bursting with anger as she had watched as a Killing Curse cast by Bellatrix Lestrange, came dangerously close to hitting Ginny.
"NOT MY DAUGHTER, YOU BITCH!" Molly screamed out, running over to where Bellatrix stood, engaging the latter in a duel, ready to end the Death Eater's life for good.
It's didn't take long for a crowd to form around the two. Everyone looked on as Bellatrix at first cackled at Molly but soon realised that Molly was in it for the kill.
Molly had just lost one of her own children who she loved very much. She refused to let it happen to any one else of her children. Fighting with the need to protect her children at the forefront, Molly quickly cast several spells towards Bellatrix each of them striking harder than the latter.
Students quickly rushed forward to aid Molly, however she ordered them back, this was her fight and her fight alone.
Bellatrix continued to taunt Molly. Bringing up Fred's death as well as threatening to kill all of the Weasleys once she had finished Molly once a for all.
However, this threat provided Molly with enough determination to send the final blow. Bellatrix's gloating smile froze in place as her eyes bulged, collapsing to the ground.
Voldemort let out a horrified scream at the sight of his most loyal follower fell to the ground dead. He threw back Kinglsey, McGonagall and Slughorn who he had been dueling before heading towards Molly who turned to the Dark Lord defiant.
"PROTEGO!" Shouted a voice from nowhere.
Everyone looked around to find the source before everyone's eyes fell on Harry who dropped the invisibility cloak he had been hiding under, standing in the middle of the room.
Cheers erupted in the hall, as everyone was thrilled to see Harry Potter was alive, as Harry stood before the Dark Lord, ready for the final battle.
Harry warned everyone not to interfere. This battle was only between him and Lord Voldemort now.
