Ginny quivered in fear. She was on her knees naked in front of the Dark Lord Voldemort. Trapped inside his fortress' grounds with no way out and dozens of Death Eaters littering the place she realized the time for running had passed. But if she was going to die she would do her best to die fighting.



"Expelliarmus!" Ginny fired her spell at the Dark Lord. With a flick of his wand he batted the spell away.



"Take lessons from Harry Potter I presume?"



"Expelliarmus! Stupify! Expelliarmus! Stupify! Diffindo! Expelliarmus!" Ginny was desperate.



With a series of waves of his wand Voldemort parried all of Ginny's spells and sidestepped the last one.



"Well no one can claim you are not fiery my young Ginevra. I do not wish to duel you, but if this is your wish, then we do it properly. To your feet dear girl, you are a witch. Stand proud." Voldemort seemed a little amused by Ginny's actions. Ginny slowly rose to her feet. Ginny raised her arm trembling.



'If I have to die, I die with honor.' she thought to herself.



"Honor? You think standing nude, after being with a mudblood is honorable? You have much to learn. Now bow to me before we duel." Voldemort bowed. Ginny stood tall. "So much like your beloved Potter. I said bow." And like he did to Harry he forced Ginny to bow and did so himself.



"I guess this is where we begin? We see how you fair against the Greatest Wizard of your life time." His wand was raised at her but he cast no spell.



"You aren't. Albus Dumbledore was-"



"So much like Potter. Albus Dumbledore is dead. And the man who killed him bows before me."



"Petrificus Totalus!" Ginny screamed it at him. Hoping unlike her others this would hit it's mark. Unfortunately much like the others Voldemort merely swatted it aside.



"Well well, you seem to have a nice variety of spells to duel your average Hogwarts student. But Ginevra I am not the average Hogwarts student. If you wish to duel me you certainly better be ready to do real damage. I think I need to teach you a lesson in how very serious this is. Crucio."



Searing pain hit Ginny at once. The spell had been used on her before but never had it remotely compared to the sheer power Voldemort put behind it. The pain off a thousand hot daggers piercing her skin. A pain Ginny imagined could only end with death. The pain seemed to last for hours until nothing. Mere seconds had past.



"To your feet girl. Are you ready to try something with a little power behind it now? Do you finally grasp the immense severity of this situation?"



Ginny was still on all fours. Wand in her hand she took aim at his chest and yelled "Sectumsempra"



Voldemort seemed slightly taken aback and called a small shield up with only a second to spare.



"Ah the old Severus Snape Special. Maybe you did learn a few things at that school of yours. So how long do you want to keep this going Ginevra. I have little time to waste. But I am quite enjoying the view."



Ginny for the first time since the duel started remembered her state. Voldemort took the momentary distraction and used it to his advantage. Green sparks came shooting out of his wand and hit Ginny flat in the chest. She fell backwards. Shocked she was still alive, she looked up at Voldemort standing amused still in the same place.



"Did you think I would end all this fun that quickly? No I wish to teach you a lesson or two about dueling before this is all done."



"Reducto" Ginny fired a desperation spell. It zoomed past Voldemort into a tree.



"Should have worked on your aim girl."



"I didn't miss." Ginny said matter-of-factly. The tree she had hit cam crashing down. Voldemort was lost in the branches. It looks like it didn't hit him right on though, and he may still be alive. Ginny does the only thing that occurs to her. She runs into the woods of the fortress. Ginny runs for a few moments before she is stopped dead in her tracks by a slightly taken back Lord Voldemort.



"I misjudged you. I underestimated your abilities it would seem. That won't happen twice. Crucio." For a second time Voldemort unleashed a pain into Ginny's body like nothing she had ever felt before before. When he released it he commanded her to her feet. "Let us finish this duel girl. You have proven you are capable and cunning. But against me what chance do you really stand?"



"Avada Kedavra!" Ginny was surprised at her self for even casting it.It flew past Voldemort's shoulder and hit a tree which withered up and died.



"Well, you are certainly more daring than I thought. Really you must work on that aim though. Mayb-"



with all her hopes upon her despite not wanting to do the spell Ginny screamed it again. "Avada Kedavra!"



The spell hit Voldemort in the shoulder he stumbled back.



"You need to mean it girl! Every second you lose your courage standing here is a second where it becomes less possible for you to stand a chance against me. It was daring for you to even throw the curse. But the time for daring has now ceased, Ginevra!" He raised his wand again.



"Stupefy!"



Voldemort swatted the spell away and began advancing on her slowly.



"Expelliarmus" He swatted it away again, he was getting dangerously close. Wand still aimed at her chest. Ginny began backing up.



"Expelliarmus! Expelliarmus! Expelliarmus!" He swatted them all away again and continued on.



"Silly girl. Now in the face of death is not the time to throw out children's spells. That muggle loving fool taught you nothing. I am your master now!" With those words Ginny tripped over a rock behind her, her wand fell to her side. Voldemort stepped over to her and kicked her wand away.



"You have fought valiantly. But this battle has ceased. You are unarmed and naked at my feet. He raised his wand in the air and with a fell swoop a dark black spell came down and hit Ginny in the chest and all went black.
