It had taken a few hours, the sun had long since set and night had fully set in by the time the group had arrived over london, that all seemed a lifetime ago. It had all been a trick. sirius was safe, and voldemorte was not here. it had been a rap. Harry currently held the prophecy in his pocket, he dueled lucius malfoy on some kind of platform, an archway of shimmering light and whispers as to his left and crumbling stone stairs were to his right. his friends were all captured pending the outcome of this duel. an honor duel, by magic law must be obeyed. after he had challenged lucius for the safe release of his friends malfoy had accepted in return if he should win the prophecy was his. they had been fighting for only a few minutes when a cloud of light burst forth.

sirius black appeared next to harry, then a sliver of phoenix song could be heard as more lights burst forth and members of the order of the phoenix appeared and attacked the death eaters sirius was now dueling belletrix harry was dueling lucius and his friends were all dueling and slowly regrouping. spells flew through the air and chunks of stone and dirt flew through the air and impacts on shields rang like gongs.

then harry through a stunning spell, blasting hex, concussive hex, full body bind and flame spell at lucius who managed to block the stunner blasting and concussive sells was got hit with the body bind and fire, he crumbled to the ground slowly burning. harry turned to assist his godfather and watched in abject horror as belletrix launched a killing curse.

Time seemed to slow, sirius was to busy laughing to notice the sickly green spell, the spell that had caused harry s much pain, taking away his mother, his father, his entire family, any hope of happiness and love, any future or past he may have had had been ended by that spell. No more. from deep within harry felt something awake.

as sirius was struck and fell through the archway Harry screamed and belletrix grinned triumphant and then looked at harry. her face froze in horror and fear, Harry was floating a floor off the ground bathed in golden light, his eyes brimmed with tears, yet they held a fire a rage and belletrix, voldemortes right hand, his most powerful and deadly weapon, his most devout follower, fled in terror. harry dropped to the floor still bathed in a golden aura and pursued.

Harry chased after her finally catching her in the atrium and knocking her off her feet. she lay n the ground, harry summoned her wand,She lay utterly helpless and harry snapped her wand and burned it to ash, then a voice, high and cold, mocking and full of malice whispered in his mind.

kill her harry, you know the spell, she killed sirius, she helped kill your family do it now, end her DO IT and with a roar harry turned and launched a massive blasting hex at voldemorte who though surprised managed to shield easily.

"Very well, then you shall die." and the fight began. Harry was lost in his grief his rage unleashed spells from his wand, everything he knew was unleashed and voldemorte blocked or redirected with little effort. then harry started using darker spells he had learned and unleashed them fast. REALLY fast, his wand blurred, his power increased and even voldemorte began to falter, it was a Gatling cannon of spells. each striking faster and harder then the last.

then the fireplaces flashed green and Aurors and hitwizards appeared and minister fudge looked on n horror as voldemorrte and harry dueled. then with a shout of rage voldemorte vanished with a slight puff of smoke and harry collapsed. Albus dumbledore strode into the atrium just as voldemorte did so and watched as harry collapsed and convulsed on the floor. Albus hurried to his side and knelt beside the boy and gazed in horror as harrys eyes were scarlet and he seemed to be attempting to fight off the possession.

In harrys mind he was in agony, voldemorte simply laughed and repeated the words from harrys first year.

"there is no good and evil harry, there is only power and those to weak to see it."
"For a moment harry wanted to completely refute that statement and say of course there was good and evil, power was relative. then he had an epiphany.

in his mindscape, a cloudy barren place harry rose from his knees and stood before the self-styled dark lord. " you are not entirely wrong, there is power, great power and there are those who wish to use it to rule and subjugate and destroy. then there are those who understand power, who know its cost and choose not to seek it out. power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely. look at yourself, you were once a shining student, head boy at hogwarts, praised and revered by your teachers and classmates. now everyone hates you or fears you. look at what power has done for you. I do not wish for the power I have, for my reputation and I would trade it all for the chance to be with my family."

"you shall join them then" said voldemorte and raised his wand, as harry accepted he would die and thought of those he loved a voice cut through his thoughts and emanated from his very soul.

I did indeed choose well. you have passed the final test, that which was granted at your birth is now yours, use it well. the image of a purple and black phoenix burned into harrys mind as power flowed into him. all his injuries were healed, his scars erased, and with a scream his scar exploded and a black wraith-like mist poured out and vanished golden flames surrounded him and voldemorte screamed in intense agony ans the phoenix of balance bestowed harry with his knowledge and power. it shoved voldemorte from his mind, burning him as it did so, voldemorte fled. and harry gently settled upon his feet. the golden aura slowly fading. his glasses lay forgotten and when dumbedore looked into his eyes he froze in astonishment.

Harry's emerald eyes blazed with a fire, flames dances in his iris and spoke of ancient powers and knowledge, of light and dark, harry opned his mouth and spoke not in his voice, but in a voice older then man and filled with wisdom and radiating authority.

"I am the phoenix lord of Twilight, keeper of the balance, and guardian of creation. I have blessed this child with my knowledge and my powers, he is selfless, kind, caring, full of love, and holds no desire for power at all. He accepts that there is power in this world, and belives only those who have no desire for it should ever have it. for only they can use it without corruption. He has impressed me, for the first time since merlin I bestow upon him gifts, he walks a lonely and broken path, filled with pain and regrets and loss, yet he shall be a beacon for this world. he shall love and protect those he cares for without reserve and woe unto any who find his righteous fury directed at them, for he shall site them with the very heavens, all of earths lie shall revere him, creatures shall bow to him and animals shall know him, the word is changed and this child shall lead the way to golden age. Or if you force him he shall become the greatest darkness you have ever know, he will have the power to utterly destroy you all and leave the world a barren waste, devoid of all light and hope. the path is his to choose. do not attempt to force him or you shall perish. that is all. I now take my leave, remember my warning, he will be a beacon, for light or dark is yet to be decided.

with a rush of wind and flash of fire a light appeared from harrys chest and then dissipated. the atrium was silent, then harry closed his eyes and collapsed.
