"From now on you will put your faith in me." Voldermort spoke again. "And now it is time to declare yourself. Come and join us or... die." Nobody moved. Then a voice called "Draco." It was Lucius Malfoy. Heads turned to face Draco. Draco did not move. He looked upset. Then a softer voice called "Draco." Slowly and reluctantly Draco moved from out of the crowd. He walked towards his parents. "Well done, well done Draco!" Voldernorts said, praising him with a hug. Then suddenly Neville stepped forward. What the hell did Neville think he was doing? Was he really going to go to the Dark Side? As he limped forward, Voldermort said "Well I must say I hoped for better." The Death Eaters laughed. "And who might you be, young man?" Voldermort asked. "Neville Longbottom" Neville murmured. The Death Eaters laughed again. Before Voldermort was able to speak Neville said "I'd like to say something." Then Neville took off without an answer from Voldermort. "It doesn't matter Harry's gone" What was Neville saying? Of course it matters that Harry's gone! "People die every day" Neville went on "Friends, Family yeah. We lost Harry tonight. But he's still with us. In here" and he pointed to his heart. "So's Fred, Remus, Tonks, all of them." There was a silence. Neville was making me tear up more. Continuing Neville said "They didn't die in vain!" Then he turned to Voldermort "But you will! Cause you're wrong! Harry's heart did beat for us! For all of us!" Then drawing the sword from the Sorting Hat he shouted "THIS IS NOT OVER!" Everyone drew out their wands. I held mine tightly in my hand. I was going to war. For Harry.

Chaos escaped. Spells shot everywhere. I ducked. I shot a stunning spell at a Death Eater and he fell backwards. Yells filled the hall but the loudest was Hagrids. "HARRY! WHERE'S HARRY!" I whirled around. Yes Harry was gone. He was not in Hagrid's hands. Turning around again I saw Bellatrix aiming a spell at me. Using the shield charm Harry taught me in my 4th year I blocked it. With a blink of an eye my mother was there screaming her head off. "NOT MY DAUGHTER YOU B***H!" Before Bellatrix could react my mum shot a spell at her. She was blasted into a million pieces. My mother smirked. But then I saw Voldermort pointing his wand at mum. Then Voldermort aimed a spell for mum as a familiar voice yelled "PROTEGO!" I swivelled around to see Harry standing there his wand in his hand and the invisibility cloak in the other. I couldn't believe what I was seeing! My heart lifted. Harry was alive! Soon Harry and Voldermort were circurling each other, wands out. Harry said something about an Elder Wand, Snape, his mother, Dumbledore, Draco and Tom Riddle. Then without realising what was happening both shot spells at each other. Neville ran towards the snake and cut off its head. There was hope as Harry's spell drew nearer to Voldermort's. Then it happened. Like Bellatrix, Voldermort burst into a thousand pieces. Cheers were heard all around me as I groped through the crowd. I needed to see Harry. I then felt a hand on my shoulder. I looked around and saw mum. "Don't worry Ginny" she said "You'll be able to talk to him after."
