The Final Strike
Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter or its corresponding ideas and themes. If I did, well, never mind; that\'s a big if.
Summary: This takes place in Harry\'s 7th year. Draco Malfoy, Severus Snape... are they really what they seem? Some things in Harry\'s life aren\'t as simple as they seem, and with his powers growing, he begins to learn this in a difficult way.
Notes: Yes, I am one crazy mother... Welcome to the Insanity.
\"Small, simple, safe price
Rise the wake and carry me with all of my regrets
This is not a small cut that scabs, and dries, and flakes, and heals
And I am not afraid to die
I\'m not afraid to bleed, and fuck, and fight.
I want the pain of payment
What\'s left, but a section of pigmy size cuts
Much like a slew of a thousand unwanted fucks
Would you be my little cut?
Would you be my thousand fucks?
And make mark leaving space for the guilt to be liquid
To fill, and spill over, and under my thoughts
My sad, sorry, selfish cry out to the cutter
I\'m cutting trying to picture your black broken heart
Love is not like anything
Especially a fucking knife\"- \"I\'m A Fake\" by The Used
Chapter 20. The Last Strike
Ducking low, Colin and Ginny fired off a few hexes at the back of two unsuspecting Death Eaters. They had caught up with the battle outside the Great Hall, and had flanked the attacking Death Eaters. Colin had taken out four of the robed men before the group realized they were being hit from both sides, and started using cover effectively, most being able to deflect curses coming from either side.
\"Colin, can you hit them with any wide effect curses?\" asked a red-faced Ginny, who kept firing her bat-bogie hexes.
\"No, not without hitting any of our mates. I don\'t know any curses that would effect many without severely hurting them.\"
The Mousy boy smirked as his blasting curse took two more Death Eaters out, along with their cover. He heard Ginny curse from behind him, and he looked over to see one massive robed figure sling a curse into both Luna and Neville, knocking them backwards and unconscious. With only Ron and Hermione covering the door, they stood less of a chance. Ginny aimed quickly at the big Death Eater, ignoring the ones that fired curses at her, and waited for him to try to come out again. As soon as she saw his back, her voice screamed the curse, and a hole was blow through his chest, bigger than a watermelon in size.
\"JESUS!\" they heard one yell as the larger man fell to the floor. Colin was still firing off hexes, but he was watching Ginny with slight wonderment.
\"Didn\'t know you knew that one, Ginny.\" Colin grunted as he picked off yet another robed figure.
\"I learned it from Neville. He said it was his parent\'s favorite and he had learned it from his gran. I thought it only fitting-\" a burning curse struck Ginny\'s shoulder and she slammed back into the wall, yelling in pain.
Colin moved closer to her, slamming a rather powerful reductor curse into the Death Eater that had hit Ginny. He ducked down and threw another hex, helping the red-haired girl from the floor. She hissed in pain but picked up her wand and started sending curses out left and right.
\"You okay, Gin?\"
\"Yeah, this just hurt like hell. I\'ll get these bastards!\" she growled, increasing the speed in which she fired off spells. She was pissed.
------------
Another Dementor fell silently as it was tore apart by a large silver wolf. Remus Lupin scanned the battlefield, seeing fallen bodies of Aurors and wolves, but only as a minority. Mostly, burning or shredded corpses of Dementors or Veela littered the ground, a testimony to their power in this fight. He knew they were winning. A howl to his left, and the wolf\'s instincts told him to run fast. The large silver wolf sprinted full out, using all four appendages to get as much distance he could. Ahead of him, closer to the castle, Auror and wolf alike tore through wave after wave of diving creature. Dementor and Veela numbers were dwindling, and for every 20 or so creature taken out, a wolf or human would be taken out. This battle was almost over before is started, the combined forces of magic and brute force too much for the subtleness of the Dark creatures.
Something heavy slammed into Lupin\'s side, throwing the wolf to the side. A flip later and he was back on his feet, snarling at a rather large Veela; a leader of the clan. The thing flapped its wings with fervor, and a bolt of energy formed in its gigantic clawed hand. Lupin easily evaded the attack, the bolt sailing over his head as he dove and tackled the flying creature. Keeping it off balance, Moony quickly recovered and slashed the beast across its chest, leaving bright blue cuts that bleed profusely. The thing struck Lupin hard with a bolt, sending him back with a slight pain in his chest. The two locked eyes and glared at one another, daring the other to move. The Veela was the first to strike, lashing out with its claws and attempting for Lupin\'s face. Instead of moving away, Lupin started forward, dodging around the claw and clamping down on the beast\'s neck. They fell to the ground, the meat under Lupin\'s teeth twitching as it slowly died from the massive blood loss. Lupin once again made his way towards the castle, spitting the excess of meat from his teeth. He finally caught up, seeing Aurors, wolves, and Order members fighting their way inwards to the great entrance.
\"Lupin!\" came Snape\'s voice, the greasy man slinking back and sending a curse to an attacking Vampire.
\"These vampires are the last main defense. Most of the Auror forces and your wolves are still out there, battling with those creatures, and we need to get past them.\" with a nod, Lupin took off and shot straight through four Vampires who stood at the main doors, his own ilk following him in and tearing through them easily. He could hear Sirius, Lucius, and Snape run up swiftly behind him.
\"Good, now we can help Harry!\" Sirius shouted. Lupin, three other wolves, and the other three men began to enter the doors of the castle, when something from the ground shot up, and red eyes stared back at the members of the order.
\"What the fuck!\" shouted Fred and George together as students, Aurors, and wolves converged onto the spot before the wall, the Dementors and Veela fleeing at the sight of the new dark creatures. It was then, as the forces prepared them for anything, that the wall cascaded down onto the unsuspecting group of light forces.
--------------
The two Ethereals walked slowly down the steps and onto the floor, still staring at Io and Draco. Harry or Voldemort still hadn\'t acknowledged the presence of the others, and raised their wands for a wizard duel. Draco raised his own wand and stepped forward, not bothering to look over at the other boy, Io, as he slowly grew, his own true form taking shape. Io now stood 7 foot, compared to the other Ethereal\'s own 9 feet, and was covered mainly in fur and had claws, unlike Ethan and Tate\'s scales and talons. Ethan was the first to move, shooting forward towards Draco and closing the gap between them nearly before the boy could do anything.
Even with his incredible speed, Ethan was not ready for the spell that struck his chest and sent him flying off his feet, almost back to his original position. A gash of red bleed down his chest where the curse had hit. Draco himself looked shocked that he had barely thought about the curse, and had fired it without thinking. The large creature grunted in pain as he sat back up and started to rise.
\"Didn\'t know you were so powerful, little Dragon. Yes, I know who you are, Dragon of bad faith.\" Draco started to walk forward, his wand trained at the Ethereal, but his face contorted into a mix of surprise and rage.
\"You don\'t know me you filthy creature!\" Malfoy spat as he sent another curse that struck Ethan again on his other shoulder, leaving a similar wound. Ethan just smiled.
\"Oh, but I am sure I do. You always will be of bad faith, Dragon. Your loyalties to the human will waver, as they did to our Dak Lord, and you will leave him in a dire situation. Even now your undoing is fighting just outside those walls.\" Draco advanced with his wand still drawn.
\"I would never betray Harry! I... love him!\" Draco\'s falter was not unnoticed by the Ethereal.
\"You don\'t sound so sure.\" trailed the beast as it rose.
----------
The younger Ethereal watched his brother, unflinching as Tate launched himself at Io. They collided with force, their hands conjoined in their struggle. Even though Tate was larger, Io had more of a build, and their struggle was a perfect match of force. Claws met talons as they pushes against one another, trying to make the other one fall back. Io\'s golden ones met with Tate\'s crimson ones. The older brother smiled.
\"Mother and Father are here, little brother.\" he said in a low toned voice, taking his chance when Io pulled back slightly in surprise to kick the legs from under the boy.
\"You must be lying! How did they find us! Surely you didn\'t...\" Tate nodded his head, watching Io suddenly grow angry, and pressing harder down onto his younger brother.
\"You won\'t escape them forever, Io, and if you cannot beat me as you are now, how do you expect to beat our beloved parents?\"
Io found his strength and pushed his brother off of him, quickly standing and taking a swipe at the Ethereal. The two exchanged blows, scratching, tearing, and biting to throw the other away. Io pushed himself from the floor with a roar and slammed into his sibling, knocking the both of them off of their feet. The two glared at each other as they recovered, both breathing hard and bleeding from the wounds inflicted upon them. Io was surprised to see Ethan slam into Tate\'s side, the two flying over to strike the wall with an echoing thud. Io glanced over to see a glowing Draco, his wand forgotten on the ground, striding forward, his hands forming bolts of energy in his palms.
\"Let\'s fight them together, Io.\" he said as he passed, eyes still watching the two beings painfully stand from their spots on the floor.
-------------
\"Tom Riddle, the half-blood who preaches pure-blood superiority and wages a private but personal war with those who do not share his hatred of muggles and the non-magic.\" The Dark Lord snarled at his given name and the rest of Harry\'s speech.
\"You dare to speak to me with such impudence, you filthy little half-blood!\" yelled the snake-like form, his lip curling and his wand raising. Harry still hadn\'t budged except to smirk lazily at the Lord.
\"Hypocritical until the end, are we?\" Voldemort\'s face contorted with rage, and he struck with his wand, firing a hex right at the Golden Boy.
\"Contego!\" Harry shouted, putting up a shield that absorbed the the hex.
\"You can do better than that, Tom.\" he said, stalling to think of something. The shield seemed to zap his strength when it deflected that curse, and he knew if Voldemort kept sending out spells like that, he wouldn\'t be able to last long.
Voldemort sent another curse, watching as Harry once again deflected it. His spells were becoming more powerful as each new one bounced harmlessly off his shield. Harry suddenly had to dodge when a certain green Unforgiveable blasted passed and tore a chunk out of a wall. Looking up in horror, Harry had just enough time to thrown his wand out as another curse struck his hands, sending his wand flying and him flailing out. The Dark Lord took his chance, striking out with all his energy and power in one last killing curse. Harry put his hands forward, knowing for sure that this would be the end. Io and Draco turned around from their fights to see dust and green smoke fly back from the point where Harry had stood, and a rather pleased looking Voldemort striding forward, laughing.
\"That was the end of your Golden Boy, the savior of the wizarding world!\" Voldemort cackled evilly, but Draco\'s eyes shot open in anger, as did the large form of Io. Seconds later, two bodies of Ethan and Tate flying through the air to land with a sickening crack at the Dark Lord\'s side.
The two boys seemed to float forward, Io shrinking down back into his human form. Something seemed to take ahold of the teens, and as they strode forth on either side of the clearing smoke, Voldemort saw what he could not believe. Standing there, hands still out in front of him, was Harry, a barrier encircling his body, protecting him from the curse that had been thrown at him.
\"Sorry, Tom, but I thought you to be much stronger than this, and do you know what? I\'m getting real sick of you.\"
As Harry said this, energy cracked around him, seemingly gathering from everywhere in the castle. Draco yelled loudly as black wings erupted from his back, blood splattering the walls behind him and dripping down the leathery folds. Io screamed as well as two blades tore through his elbows and shoulders. The two Ethereals shook themselves off before jumping toward Draco and Io, roaring furiously. The two blondes raised their hands, stopping the creatures mid-air, and threw them back with a simple movement of their hands.
\"See, your friends are nothing more than rag-dolls to mine, Tom. Likewise, you are nothing to me either. Goodbye.\"
Energy that had gathered suddenly found its outlet, and blasted outward, the wave striking out at everything within and outside the castle walls. Those outside merely got a flash of white light before the explosion, the sheer force knocking back walls and people alike. Many lost consciousness as the power overtook them. Human, wolf, and Ethereal alike were thrown back...
-----------
Groaning loudly, Sirius Black opened his eyes to a blurry field. Blinking rapidly and groaning as he sat up, Padfoot brought a hand to his bleeding head, noticing a little blood coating his hand as he brought it back down to eye-level. His vision slowly straightened out, becoming clearer until he could see his surroundings. Bodies littered the ground around him, but only ones he recognized. No signs of the castle could be seen, just a smoking crater that rained down debris and ash. Bodies of Death Eaters, Dementors, Veela, Ethereal, and Vampire were nowhere in sight. Aurors, Order, and DA started to rise, and before long what was left of the forces stood overlooking the scene of massacre.
Many adults had been killed, people from all sides who would not be getting up anytime soon from the wrath of the Ethereals that had attacked. Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger, along with Fred, George, Bill, Charlie, and Ginny mourned over the bodies of Arthur and Molly, entwined but cover with unmistakable burns from Veela bolts. Many Aurors lay dead, as well as wolves. Sirius and Remus gathered the remaining Wolves to discuss what was to be done. The Order was in shambles, with only Sirius, Remus, Lucius, Bill, Charlie, Hagrid, and Tonks left alive. All of the DA seemed to be intact. Voldemort\'s body was found at the center of the smoking crater that had been Hogwarts. Colin and Lucius were the ones to finally report with absolute certainty that the bodies of Severus Snape, Io, Harry Potter, and Draco Malfoy were nowhere to be found.
--------------
Thousands of miles away, in the United States of America, a sighting of angels flying over the Santa Cruz coastline was reported to the local authorities, who simply passed over it like a hoax call.
THE END!

THANKS TO REVIEWERS! (Spoilers?)
fragonknight01~ Yeah, it was kind of messed up. I still can\'t get over it, but I\'m going to have to before the next book. Still though, ;_;
Narcissa Black~ NO! Not SEV! My loveable, squeezable, snarky-git! ;_; I want him to stay all good... poor Dumbly, too, but Sev is much more important!
thrnbrooke~ It is here!
BitchOfDarkness~ Thank you!
ME~ You\'re welcome ^_^! Okay, in all seriousness, I am sorry for not posting a spoiler warning. I\'ve changed that, though, it doesn\'t help for those who have already read the spoiler on HBP. However, I did not appreciate your comment. I am not an asshole, I am just forgetful. It\'s not like I didn\'t post one to spite all of those who haven\'t immediately gone out and bought or read the HBP, so you do not have the right to call me an asshole unless you like stooping as low as to be one yourself. I thank you for reading my story, but I would find it in better taste if you kept further comments like that to yourself. Thank you!
fraser~ here\'s the last one!
**********
Oh yes, one things I must point out, when Tate says our \'parents\', he is actually talking about the leader\'s of their clan, not their actual parents, as that would be a Wizard and a Succubus(or, in Tate\'s case, a Incubi and a Witch)
A/N- Sorry about the delay in update. I\'ve been busy since Thursday, and I\'ve been needing more sleep to keep up with the late nights now. I am going to take a bit off before I start my next fic, and I\'m not sure it will be a sequel to this one. I will do a sequel eventually, but I actually have a good story going for a fic based after the events of HBP. It will have my OC char Io in it, though altered from what he is in this one, of course. It will be a threesome between Io, Harry, and Draco. No Snape in this one, I think. Dom Io and Draco, Sub Harry and Io. Yes, Io plays both roles!
Summary: This takes place in Harry\'s 7th year. Draco Malfoy, Severus Snape... are they really what they seem? Some things in Harry\'s life aren\'t as simple as they seem, and with his powers growing, he begins to learn this in a difficult way.

It\'s not like I didn\'t post one to spite all of those who haven\'t immediately gone out and bought or read the HBP, so you do not have the right to call me an asshole unless you like stooping as low as to be one yourself. I thank you for reading my story, but I would find it in better taste if you kept further comments like that to yourself. Thank you!
fraser~ here\'s the last one!

Oh yes, one things I must point out, when Tate says our \'parents\', he is actually talking about the leader\'s of their clan, not their actual parents, as that would be a Wizard and a Succubus(or, in Tate\'s case, a Incubi and a Witch)
A/N- Sorry about the delay in update. I\'ve been busy since Thursday, and I\'ve been needing more sleep to keep up with the late nights now. I am going to take a bit off before I start my next fic, and I\'m not sure it will be a sequel to this one. I will do a sequel eventually, but I actually have a good story going for a fic based after the events of HBP. It will have my OC char Io in it, though altered from what he is in this one, of course. It will be a threesome between Io, Harry, and Draco. No Snape in this one, I think. Dom Io and Draco, Sub Harry and Io. Yes, Io plays both roles!
