Hermione Voldemort's Daughter

Chapter 40: Battle Over

Ron Weasley glanced back up at the bars, still feeling dizzy. He wasn't going to let others fight this war for him, which is why he kept running at the wall. He ran at it again, and hit his head. For a while the world swayed, and he was sure he could see Justin Finch-Fletchly.

"Idiot!" Justin laughed, "Are you a wizard or not?"

"I'm a wizard!" Ron said to him, even though he'd disappeared. 'I'm a wizard! Reducto!" The dungeon smashed and the room filled with smoke. "I'm free."

Harry, Sophia, and Voldemort walked out onto a balcony over-viewing the battlefield.

"Hey, look!" A Deatheater pointed, "They finished talking! We can battle again!" A cry of anger filled the field and soon they were fighting again.

"STOP!" Voldemort yelled and the whole battlefield froze. A young Hogwarts student stood with a rock over Pansy Parkinson's head. "Boy, drop it." He ordered, and the boy grinned, dropping it on her head. Her head exploded with the force.

"EEEEEEW!" Sophia whined, screwing her eyes shut. "Gross Devon!" Devon grinned.

"My Lord," Bellatrix gasped, "You're not going to stand for this, are you?"

"Well, Bellatrix, I am." Voldemort replied, "And I am not a Lord. I am a half-blood man who was raised in an orphanage and I'm not going to deny it anymore." There was a collective gasp. "I am a half-blood orphan who was in love with a firey-haired Muggleborn, and these are my twin children." He put an arm around Harry and Sophia. "Some of you will be wondering where Hermione Granger is, and I will tell you: She was, all the while, Sophia Lily Riddle." Another gasp. "I give you: Hermione, Voldemort's Daughter." Blushing, she grinned. People started to clap. "And also, Harry: Voldemort's Son." More clapping. Then the doors banged open and a red faced Ron ran in.

"Ron?" Gasped Harry. "You missed the big speech! Where have you been all this time? ... Did you have a you-know what problem again?" Ron blushed and everyone laughed.

"Wha-no I did not! And it's you who has the problem!" Ron said.

"Yes- my friend..." Harry trailed off with a smirk. It was clear he was teasing Ron.

"Uh... Uh... Oh yeah?" Ron tried to procrastinate... "Uh... Um... That's not what your mom said last night!"

"Ron... My mum's dead." Harry said, solemn faced. There was an awkward silence.

"Oh... Right..." Ron replied, sheepyfaced.

"Sorry we forgot you Weaselbee." Draco smirked, not sorry at all. "There was just bigger fish to fry, you know, stading around and all that." A deatheater wiped some sweat away from his forhead.

"Phew!" He laughed, "Hard work, standing..."

"Where were you anyway Weaselbee?" Draco grinned, "Did a scary bug scare you? Did a suit of armour chase you around the fourth floor?"

"No... They can do that?" Ron asked, scared. Draco smirked.

"It's behind you right now." He laughed. Ron screamed and turned around. Dotty stood there.

"Would sir like a complimentery brownie?" Dotty asked, completely unfazed. Everybody laughed again.

"AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!" Ron was still screaming his ears off.

"Dotty guesses not then, sir." Dotty shrugged.

"I'll have one, Dotty!" Harry yelled from up on the balcony. A brownie popped into his hand, and Sophia glared at him.

"Where are your manners!" She scolded, but his mouth was already full of brownie.

"Shory Sofeea!" He shrugged, munching down on the deliciousness. She rolled her eyes. Ron still stood there screaming.

"I have a question!" Another Deatheater raised his hand.

"Yes?" Sophia asked.

"Who was the red-head your father fell in love with?" The Deatheater asked.

"Lily Evans, why?" Sophia wondered.

"... Because I deal with Flootube videos. I would much like it if I used your memories and stories for a music video." The Deatheater grinned.

"Go ahead." Voldemort nodded. Ron kept on screaming.

"Hey... Where was Ron anyway?" Sophia wondered.

"No idea." Harry shrugged. "RON! What happened in the dungeons anyway?" Ron gasped for breath.

"Hermione wasn't in the dungeons- Luna Lovegood was! And she locked me in!" Ron relayed to him. Everybody started laughing.

"Ron, I know Hermione wasn't in the dungeons! That's because Hermione is Sophia, and Sophia is Hermione. She's my sister, Ron. I'm HARRY FREAKIN' RIDDLE!" He shouted it to the world and there was even more clapping, yelling and wolf-whistling.

"I can see the Headline well! Riddles Reunited!" They heard Rita Skeeter grinning, "A word, Miss Riddle? What do you say about this happy reunion?"

"Two words, Skeeter," Sophia laughed, "Bug off." Rita looked shocked, and the Riddle family laughed. Then, Sophia spotted her best friend, stood sombre, a while back. "Hang on." She ran over to Ginny. "What's the matter, Gigi?"

"Blaise." She managed to choke out, bursting out into tears again. Sophia followed her gaze over to yet another body, this time the body of the black Slytherin Blaise Zabini, with a chunk ripped out of his stomach. There was blood all around him.

"Blaise..." She murmured, and Ginny and her ran over to him. "Wake up Blaise. Come on, you can do it! Wake up! Ginny, help me!"

"Blaise?" Ginny started, "Blaise, can you hear me? If you can, WAKE THE HELL UP!" She burst out sobbing, "I need you! You're the greatest thing that's ever happened to me- you can't leave me! Your funny, your smart, your handsome, your simply perfect! You can't leave..." Ginny stopped, letting her tears run down her face.

"Don't stop now," A voice groaned, "It was just getting good." Ginny and Sophia stared in shock at the Slytherin, who had just opened his black eyes. They were in pain, but he was alive.

"You. Stupid. Slytherin!" Ginny gasped, punching him for every word, "I. Thought. You. Were. Dead! I. Killed. Theodore. Nott. For. You. And. Now. You're. ALIVE?" Blaise winced.

"Ginny, that hurts." He whispered. Ginny reeled back.

"You have a hole in you." Ginny gasped. "How are you alive? You have a hole in you!"

"I wasn't ready to die." Blaise shrugged, "Now could somebody get me to the hospital? As my beautiful girlfriend just pointed out, I have a hole in me." Everybody laughed.

A/N: ... And there you have it.

1. Did you like the chapter?

2. What was your favourite part?

3. Were you okay with me bringing Blaise back to life (not that I'd really killed him anyway...)? I was killing him, because somebody mused on a review I should kill Blaise or Ginny, but then once I'd killed Theo I felt sad, and I started moping, and that's never a good idea in Disney, right? So I juggled around with a few ideas of him being miraculously okay, but I wasn't sure if you all were going to be okay with it. Are you?

4. What do you think will happen in the epilogue?

5. Are you sad we're coming to the end? I am...
