Normally to go to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry was an honor. Students there loved the school and would be happy to be there. However, today was an exception. The students there would probably rather be anywhere else other then Hogwarts right about now. For on the grounds of the school, there was a battle. A battle that would decide the fate of the magical world.
Albus Dumbledore, the Headmaster of Hogwarts, was on the grounds of the school along with every student forth year and above, the staff, and all the members of the Order of the Phoenix. All of them together fought against the Dark Wizard, Voldemort, and his followers, the Death Eaters. Along with Dumbledore was one special wizard. His name was Harry Potter.
Harry Potter was just starting his seventh year at Hogwarts School with his two best friends Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger. But what made Harry special was that he was the only one who could defeat Voldemort. According to a prophecy, 'neither can live while the other survives'. The prophecy had been made for Voldemort and whomever he attacked. At the age of one, Voldemort attacked the Potter's house and after killing Harry's parents, Voldemort tried to kill Harry though the spell did not work and left Harry with a lightning bolt scar on his forehead and Voldemort on the verge of death. Many people considered Voldemort to be dead so Harry got the title the Boy-Who-Lived. But Voldemort lived and it now seemed as though the prophecy was to be fulfilled for Harry and Voldemort were dueling on Hogwarts grounds.
"Come Harry, I know you can duel better then this," taunted Voldemort.
"And I know you are holding back as well Tom," said Harry referring to Voldemort's true name.
"Then how about an all out duel, neither of us holding back?"
"You and I both know that that would most likely destroy this entire area after just one spell."
"Sometimes I wonder how you can fight for this pathetic Light side, Harry. You have so much power in you. Together we could do so much!" At this point, Harry and Voldemort just stood with their wands pointing at each other while the battle continued around them.
"We tried that once, remember? But, oh I remember, it was against my free will!"
"So you're saying you learned nothing while you were with me? Can't say I'm not disappointed. Too bad. Though, if you had stayed longer, I would have shown you more."
"I could care less Tom. Now today is the day that you die!" said Harry as he shot curses at Voldemort. "Deatlio!" he shouted. A pure gold light shot from his wand straight at Voldemort. Even with his quick reflexes, Voldemort could not dodge this spell.
The spell was one Harry had created. It was a death spell yet it caused no pain when it hit and it wasn't considered an unforgivable curse. However, as Harry suspected, it didn't kill Voldemort, though it did leave him weaker.
"You thought that spell would work on me?" Voldemort seethed, "Foolish boy! I am not so easily killed. Unlike your relatives. You do remember that, Harry, don't you?"
Harry's face showed no emotion yet inside he was burning with anger. It flashed through his eyes and Voldemort saw it.
"Did I hit a weak spot Harry? Did you actually care for those pathetic excuses of muggles?" This time the anger showed on Harry's face and his emerald eyes seared with fire. Voldemort took this chance and raised his wand and quickly muttered, "Fercio!"
A black beam of light with red circling around it shot out of Voldemort's wand… and hit Harry straight in the chest.
Harry stumbled back a step as the spell hit him. Inside of him, all he could feel was anger. Anger that wanted out. Suddenly, Harry's emerald eyes vanished into a blood red colour that filled his entire eyes until no white showed and his pupils turned to black slits.
Voldemort smirked at Harry's new appearance. "Try and deal with this, Potter," he said, drawing Harry's attention to him. "Now that I have cast the spell, I will take my leave." Voldemort waved his wand to deactivate the anti-apparation wards, then apparated away with his Death Eaters.
Harry let out an angry cry and almost with inhuman speed, drew out his wand and tried to cast spells at the Death Eaters who had not left yet. But these spells weren't exactly 'light' spells. Some of them caused burns, cuts/gashes, broken bones or worse.
Many of the Light side were confused to see Harry like this. He was using spells most had never heard of. Finally, the rest of the Death Eaters had either apparated away or were unconscious from pain.
But Harry didn't seem to stop. It looked as though he were going to attack the Light side. Which he did. Although he did not use as dark as spells as before and shot a lot of stunners. It seemed as though he did not know of whom he was attacking.
Many people tried to dodge Harry's attacks but most were hit. Ron Weasley decided to try and approach Harry. He was his best mate and he should listen to him… right?
"Harry! What are you doing? These people are on our side remember!" yelled Ron trying to get through to Harry but trying to dodge his attacks at the same time.
A voice in the back of his head kept telling Harry to stop. These were his friends he was attacking! He shouldn't be doing this! He had made a vow never to attack his friends again and now he was breaking it! STOP! He had to stop! He didn't want to do this! The enemy had left! He was supposed to protect his friends, not hurt them!
The red in Harry's eyes slowly started to disappear as the voice in Harry's head told him to stop and Ron spoke to him. "Come on Harry! Wake up, mate!" Ron shouted.
Finally Harry's eyes were back to normal and he seemed to sag with exhaustion. He looked around at the students and staff and the members of the Order of the Phoenix he had injured. Just before he past out he whispered, "What have I done?" Then all went dark.
