Chapter one This could be the end
``It´s raining´´, Hermione said, looking outside hoping to break the silence that filled the room with fear and cold. The room wasn't big but since they met they were in this room, laughing, talking and having fun. But now they only hang out in this room to remind themselves of the good times they had in here. ``Yeah´´, Ron whispered in his rather uncomfortable sitting pose. The silence was almost killing Harry. No one said anything they only looked at each other. At one point they all smiled as they thought of a memory where they first met each other in the train and Hermione declared Ron as being stupid. Then they all had a little laugh when Hermione said ``Ron you have there some dirt on your nose.´´.
Suddenly the doors opened and Snape walked in. Hermione shrugged together and looked up at the professor who she´d never really trusted but now was forced to. Even though he is a death eater he was a very useful spy in the last battle. Without him they would have possibly lost. `` Potter, Weasley, Granger, Dumbledore wants to see you´´, he said in his usual tone. All three stood up and followed him.
Finally Hermione thought. As they stepped in the Room, Dumbledore sat at his desk with a rather unhappy and scaring face expression. `` They are here Professor´´; Snape said and pulled Dumbledore out of his trance. ``Ah yes, thank you Professor. Harry, Ron and Hermione please sit´´, he said and they sat down. `` First of all thank you for coming but the matter I am going to discuss with you will be rather unpleasant.´´, he said looking at all three who where a little bit confused by this. `` What is it?´´, Harry asked Dumbledore. ``Well see there hasn't been a sign of Voldemort or his followers. Not even in the newspaper. There hasn't been a Village destroyed or the mark of the dark side hasn't been spotted for a week now.´´, he said in a whisper as if he was trying to find out why. ``Well shouldn't this bee something good? ´´, Ron asked looking at everyone `` I mean this could be the turning point. He could be dead. We could have a chance of beating him. Maybe he grew week or bored´´, he cheered. ``No, I don't think so. This isn't like him. He wouldn't give up now, he almost won and I can assure you he isn't dead.´´ Dumbledore said raising his hand to calm Ron down. ``What else could it be´´, Ron asked. Hermione rubbed her forehead ``don't you see it Ron? This could be the end. ´´ Hermione said with tears filling her eyes.
``Why do you think that? ´´ He asked. `` This could mean that Voldemort is gathering his strengths to launch one final battle in which he will destroy everyone who isn't on his side.´´ Harry said in a scared tone.
Silence was once more filling the room. ``No, no this can´t be it. It can´t end like this.´´ Hermione said in disbelieve and stood up from her chair. `` Dumbledore there is a way to stop him. There was always a way. After all we have done. We fought and killed and see others who we knew get killed and we trained. This can´t be meaningless. ´´ Hermione said making Harry and Ron smile, adoring her fighter attitude. ``Yes there always is, but to know the way how to seek victory and destroy ones enemy you have first to know what he is planning.´´ the old men answered. ``Wait, are you telling us that you don't know what Voldemort is planning?´´ Harry asked in a confused tone. ``I fear so. See I can´t feel his presence anywhere, he is gone. But I have a plan that involves every member of the Order´´, Dumbledore said with a smirk on his face looking at all of them to see if they approve.
`` What should we do´´ all three answered at the same time. `` See I hope it is not as I suspect but I already talked about my plan with Snape. He is going to the ministry to act as if he seeks forgiveness for his betraying to the dark lord and telling them that he has information about the others. Then he is going to have to speak with Voldemort and we´ll find out what he has planned or why he has been too quiet for my liking.´´ Dumbledore said in an exciting tone like a child on Christmas Eve.
`` Ok and what should we do? ´´, Harry asked confused. ´´Well as we don't know what will happen I want you to alert everyone. We don't know when or how he is going to strike or if he is even planning this attack.´´ He answered fast. The trio stood up and went out.
Snape on the other hand said a spell which transported him to the ministry. As he arrived he entered the ministry and the sight to be honest of so many death eaters scared him. As he wanted to enter the hall he was caught up by Lenny. ``Well well look who we have here? Snape come back to join us or surrender?´´ ,he glared at him. ``Lenny I don't know what came over me I am sorry. I should have never left. I want to speak to the Lord I have some interesting information.´´ Snape said and surprised himself with his lying ability. ``Too bad, I think the dark lord would have liked to hear you out but he isn't here at the moment.´´ Lenny said in a rather happy tone. ``Well then send me to Bellatrix or Lucius. The information could be the victory for us.´´, he said and hoped he could sneak past him but it was hopeless. `` No there out too and for you information we will win with and without this information you have because the Boss is fetching something for us and.´´ he stopped an changed the subject ``But tell me why did you leave?´´ he asked him `` Why is that a matter of you?`` Snape snapped back. ``Oh come on Snape I know you, you always have a reason. What was it? Did you get weak? ´´ He said glaring at him and then a men who walked by, Draco. Snape knew where Lenny was going but he didn't want to show him that he cared about the boy. `` Well for your information I left because I know what I want and I know that the Lord and all of you followers will die. So yes I did have a reason to leave. I left because I wanted to live. `` Sanpe said and Lenny´s eyes widened knowing that he lied all a long he called for guards but Snape was faster and transported back to Hogwarts.
Ron and Harry where outside at the campus talking with others while Hermione sat there, reading a book. Why she thought why is this happening. She looked around and saw the young ones those who should be home by their mothers. Her eyes wandered to her friends. She noticed the school has changed since the war. No one was allowed to go out and the whole mood around here was different. Tears came running down her cheeks as she walked to the wall and watched out the window to see how destructed the outskirts of Hogwarts where. There were no trees to see. Everything was burned down in the battle. She could see the fallen students still lying there. It was horrible. ``Are you alright Hermione? ´´ Where the words which ripped her out of her trance. ``What´s wrong.´´ she heard a manly voice. It was Harry´s. ``Look at this. This is horrible.´´ she said turning to him. He gently hugged her and stroked his hand through her hair. He felt sorry for her. She had been through a lot. He walked her to Dumbledore´s office.
``Ah miss Granger and mister Potter, sit ´´, Dumbledore said seeing how upset Hermione was. ``What is he planning.`` , Harry asked Snape who sat next to Dumbledore. `` I don't know but from what I heard was that Voldemort, Bellatrix and Lucius aren't here. `` He said in a confused tone. ``How can this be? `` Ron and Hermione asked at the same time. `` Ok calm down first, and have some tea.`` Dumbledore said showing them where it was. As all had a cup of tea he continued. ``First of all what I will say now will not be told to others. Do I make myself clear? ``, he asked and took a sip from his tea. They all nodded. ``Ok so this will maybe bring some light to unanswered questions or it will confuse you more. Professor Trelawyne came to me with a rather disturbing Prophecy shed had. She saw Voldemort winning the war with a ring. And this can only mean one thing`` he said and stopped to let it sink into their mind. `` Voldemort isn't here anymore. In fact he is in another Universe. I know this sounds a little bit strange and no miss Grange I did not make this up. Our parallel universe has an Earth which is a lot like this one. The only difference is that they are used to magic. It is called middle earth and there I have a lot of friends. I was summoned by Gandalf the Grey, a very dear friend of mine, yesterday for help. In their time there lives a dark lord named Sauron….He is…hm´´ he paused. ``He is?`` Hermione said. ``Sauron is the brother of Voldemort.`` he said and paused.
Ron who was drinking spat his tea out and cried ``What another Voldemort, this day is getting better by every moment.´´ harry felt scared but then felt someone grabbing his hand. It was Hermione she knew how he felt. `` Yes now let me continue´´ he said ``Tom Riddle had a brother his name was Lewis. He is the older sibling and as he finished his wizard schooling here in Hogwarts his mother died. The anger ate him up and he became Sauron. Unable to control his powers we as the Order had to contain him so we send him to middle earth hoping he would become good once more. He played with all of us. He lived among Elves and tricked them. They created rings, rings of power and the rings where handed to the men, dwarfs and elves. But Sauron also had a ring made. This ring was more powerful then all the other rings. He tried to fight against all of them but he was killed.´´ he paused and took another sip.
``So now he is dead but what does Voldemort in Middle earth when his Brother is dead? ``, Harry asked. `` The ring survived the war and with it the soul of Sauron. Voldemort is after it to use it to win this war. ´´ , Dumbledore said. ``How did it survive?´´, Snape asked. `` Well Isildur king of men took it to mount Doom where it was made to curs it into the fires but he grew weak. The ring gained full control of Isildur and he didn't destroyed it. But then war was upon them again because the ring tried turn men against men. Isildur was killed and the ring lost. Well until now my friend Gandalf informed me that it was found and there is going to be a meeting to seal the fate of the ring. ´´ , Dumbledore finished. `` And what should we do I mean we can't possibly help them? ´´ , Harry asked looking at his cup. ``Well I have one question to you all. If there was a way to help them would you do it?´´, He asked looking at Snape and the trio. ``Yes ´´ , they said. ``Well good. There is a way we are going to travel to Middle earth.´´ , He said. Suddenly a owl with an black letter came flying in the room. The letter red itself.
Dumbledore, did you really think spying on us will give you victory? Well you are wrong. As your punishment Hogwarts will be destroyed and everyone in it killed. Yours truly D. Malfoy. It said and Hermione gasped ``we need to evacuate Hogwarts.´´, ``Yes, Snape please call everyone into the Cafeteria and close the doors.´´, Dumbledore commanded Snape. ``I will´´, Snape said and stood up and left the room.
``You will appear at this gathering and you will evacuate like everyone else. We will meet at the Headquarters.´´, Dumbledore said in a Sirius tone. They nodded and went to their rooms.
As Hermione opened the door of her room she felt sad because even though she hated it, it was the safest place to be in for the last five months. She got her Suitcase and packed everything shed had in it and started to cry. What will become of Hogwarts? The question crossed her mind and she stared out of her window and noticed that she never looked out of her window. There were a lot of things she didn't do in her room. She never sat in the couch with a book or even spend a whole day in it. Shivers went down her spine as she looked one last time in her room knowing she will not see it like this again.
Harry and Ron on the other hand didn't care of their room they as they got in they grabbed their suit cases and literally threw everything they got in their hands in it. `` I knew this was coming´´ , Harry stated as he stopped and looked at Ron. ``This would have never happened if I was dead by now.´´ , Harry said and Ron grabbed his shoulder. `` No even if you had been dead by now Voldemort would have returned anyways and destroyed Hogwarts but you want to know what I think. I think that if you where dead, Voldemort would have won by now and we would have all been dead because you where the one who thought us how to protect ourselves and you where the first one to have seen him return and you had the courage to fight against him. That gave us all hope. Don't you see Harry you have been the light at the end of the tunnel for all of us. I know you have been through a lot but it was worth it. Don't give up now or ill smack you into next week. We will get through this as we did last time.´´ , Ron said and Harry was astonished by the way he describing Harry´s role in this war.
At the same time he was freaked out because this was normally something Hermione would say to him. ``Thank you Ron but that sounded a little bit mushy like a Girl was saying it´´, he joked `` Watch what you are saying I will smack you into next week´´, Ron said with a smile.
They finished packing and met with Hermione to go to the Meeting.
