Chapter 32: Ending Fifth Year with a Bang

Ever since the Muggle world found out about magic things had been totally different. Wizards and Witches were helping Muggles with protection and teaching them some of their history. There was now even a class called Magical History in school's all around Europe.

Muggles were teaming up with some Wizards to help Wizards catch up to the twentieth century. Yes that meant electricity instead of fire, electronics and all that jazz. Military Generals all over the world were meeting with Aurors to discuss tactics against Voldemort and his Demise Consumers (Death Eater's people).

Of course there were those who thought against this. Pure Bloods for example, they had refused to fund the Ministry if they treated Muggles fairly. There were also Muggles who thought Wizards were demons and should be burned and put six feet under.

This though wasn't the downside, what was, publicity was. Since Wizarding and Muggle worlds clashed they'd both somewhat adapted to each other. This meant Wizards now knew about famous Muggles and sadly, in Harry's perspective, vice versa.

The Untouchables were now considered 'world heroes' and although some liked it, namely Ron and Flynn, some didn't.

Dumbledore had been everything but happy at the news of whom the Untouchables actually were.

Flashback

"Harry, my boy, why didn't you tell me?" Dumbledore asked innocently.

"Cut the crap, you know why" Harry spat.

"Listen Harry… and other's, I only did what I thought was best at heart."

"NO! You did what you thought would give you more fame and fortune." Ron said disgustingly.

"Surely you don't think that, I am after all Albus Dumbledore. If you let me teach you, why, you could become the strongest wizard of this age."

"By that time he would be in your clutches" Hermione scoffed.

"Why, Ms. Granger, you make me sound as if I'm some kind of villain!" Dumbledore said sounding as if he was hurt.

"You're not a villain, but you're really close to it" Izzy said.

"Listen here you incompetent children! I have had it with you! You will regret rejecting the offer of Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore. Everyone who rejects me does, for example Star Lovegood." he sneered.

Luna stiffened at hearing her mother's name. (I made up the name) "Y-you… You k-killed her?" She asked her emotions betraying her causing her to silently cry.

"You bastard!" Oliver yelled. Ron and Hermione had to hold him back from attacking Dumbledore. Let me at him! He's going to regret ever even looking at her!"

"Dumbledore it'd be best if you leave before I hurt you. If you dare even think of threatening my friends I'll be the one responsible for your death"

End Flashback

Thankfully, well sadly in Hermione's perspective, exams were canceled due to… some circumstances.

Today Muggle and Wizarding press from all over the world were gathering to question the Untouchables, mainly Harry Potter. They were going to gather up in the heart of Diagon Alley.

"Mr. - Mr.… Mr. Potter!" one of the reporters called out.

Ginny, noticing that Harry was being overwhelmed by the press pointed to him.

"You, with the funny duck hat!" she exclaimed.

The reporter smiled, he knew his hat would get him recognized.

"So, can you tell us what Vol- You-Know-Who wants with you?" he asked.

The crowed of reporters quieted down. They each pointed their microphones at him.

Harry sighed, ever since the Muggles found out about magic he had become even more famous than ever. The Muggles, though, didn't exactly know what he was famous for. All they knew was that he was a 'hero'.

"Simple," Harry said, even though it wasn't. "He wants to kill me. Listen, Voldemort isn't someone to joke around with. You all have seen cartoons, movies and what-not. Voldemort is the antagonist, the villain the-"

"Hood," An American reporter supplied.

Harry nodded, even though he had no idea what that meant.

"But he's also not like that. Voldemort is slick, sly and ambitious. He gets what he wants at any cost. He doesn't hold back, he will kill you. It doesn't matter if you're old, if you're a teenager, an orphan, a hobo, or a… baby."

Many Muggles gasped at the last part, what kind of sick and twisted man was he?

"Voldemort has been out to get me since I was born. But not only me N-Neville too… On October 31, 1980 he broke into my house. My parents and I were under the Fidelius Charm, it's a really strong hiding charm, and the only way to know where they are is to be told by the secret keeper. A few days before Halloween my parents changed Secret Keeper from my godfather, Sirius, to an old friend of theirs, Peter Pettigrew."

There were many scribbles from both the Muggle and Wizard reporters. The Wizards knew about some of this, but not all. The Muggles all just wanted to know more about the world's savior.

"That night Peter, who was secretly working for Voldemort, told him where we were at. Voldemort came to our house and got past the wards easily. My father knew he had finally found us. He told my mother to run and take me with her to escape whilst he would hold him off. And that my father did, but in the end Voldemort killed him with the killing curse Avada Kedavra. He went up the stairs and into my room; he had made the windows unbreakable and locked all the doors. My mother begged him to kill her instead and spear me. He got tired of her and murdered her with the same spell. She sacrificed herself for me."

Harry paused briefly getting annoyed by all the sympathetic looks. 'They didn't bloody care when they didn't know I was famous and rich' Harry thought.

"He pointed his wand at me and cast the same spell, only it rebounded and hit him instead. My mother's love saved me. Voldemort was dead… or at least that's what most Wizards thought. He was actually made into a lesser being for lack of words. He didn't die; he just lost his abilities and powers for a period of time. Last year, he used me to get his power back though."

It was quiet for several minutes whilst they wrote or just let the news sink in.

"But why was he after you?" a lady of the press with a Spanish accent asked.

"Because of a Prophecy" Hermione snapped.

"I think that's enough for today." Izzy said getting annoyed by al the picture being taken.

"She's right, but heed my warning; Voldemort is going to be attacking us more and more. He won't hold back, neither will his followers. Sadly because of the prophesy I have to kill him. Because in the end it's either me or him"

End of Year Five! I don't know if I should do Sixth Year as a sequel to this or just continue it as is. Please review I just need one more to get to 100!
