Fanfiction Inspired by J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter series.

Jenna

Murmurs ran around and then as we surveyed the area, it was just Hogwarts residents that we could see. Floods of students and tired warriors.

"Eddie! Jenna!" We heard multiple calls and first Louis reached us and then Casey. We hugged them in relief. Then, Nancy and Nigel reached us as well. All of us were bruised up. Louis's school white shirt was ripped on the shoulder with blood leaking out. Casey's tights ripped by the knees and hands covered with blisters. Nancy had her hair pulled back and I could see blood on her knee and a slit lip. Nigel was mostly covered in dust and had a bad, bloody scrape on his temple. People started gathering in corners and I saw how some were helping bodies around.

Bodies...

"Macy, where're you going?" Ed took my hand as I turned to leave.

"I can't just leave him out there..." I whispered. He inhaled a deep breath and looked around.

"We'll come-"

"No. No. I can do this."

"While I'm sure you can with a broken shoulder..."

"I'll use my wand."

"I know. Just let us come with, okay?"

I shivered and nodded.

"Guys." They all turned to look at us.

"South courtyard. Come on."

"Why?" Nigel ran a hand through his dusty hair.

"Just come." Ed cocked his head and started walking. I followed and so did the four of them. We all walked quietly to there until we reached there and I finally spotted my grandpa. Eddie was behind me and so were the others.

"Who is that?" I heard Louis as I sat on a knee beside him and fixed his jacket. Zipping it up, I ran fingers through the thick grey strands on his head. I rubbed the pad of my thumb on his cheeks to wipe off the dust. Finally, I shut his eyes.

I wiped the tears that involuntarily spilled.

"Lets get him inside, Macy."

I nodded.

"Wingardium Leviosa." Eddie whispered and he levitated. Louis raised his wand as well and we walked behind the boys carrying the body inside. Nancy held my hand, leading us inside and when we reached the Great Hall, we put him down by the benches on the floor and covered him with a sheet. I dropped the the bench beside, unfeeling, lost about everything.

I felt a presense grow beside me and he was in my line of sight.

"Where's your mum?" I heard Nancy.

"I dont know." I faintly, shrugged. My hand doubled when fingers laced in mine. Ed was holding my hand now and all I could do was release a sigh.

A figure crouched in front of us and I noticed it to be Ginny Weasley. She was looking at Ed and he didnt say anything. Ginny got up and walked to my grandpa. She lifted the sheet and shut her eyes in a sigh, dropping the sheet back. Walking back around to us, she crouched in front of us again and surprisingly, I felt her place a hand on mine.

"My Grandfather." I shrugged, defeated with the tears spilling. She released a sigh and pushed a strand of my hair away from my face. She looked at Ed again and then Nancy and Nigel. Then she got up with a tap on my hand and left.

Eddie

I needed to console Macy but I needed a word with Ginny. I looked down at her and she was just releasing low breaths. I looked over at Nancy who was softly sobbing in Nigel's shoulder and then up at Louis, who was sitting on the upper bench behind us. He was sitting with Casey leaning against him, looking depressed and cleaning tears off.
