My Slytherin Prince

Chapter Sixty One

Iris’s P.O.V
Just as we went outside, we all got into formation and I had to get on a broom since there was no room in Hagrid's bike that would fit all three of us after Harry and I set Hedwig and Raven ahead, “head for the Burrows, we’ll rendezvous there. On the count of three. One… Two… Three.” Moody said before we all took off and just as we managed to make through a cloud bank, we saw everyone fighting with Death Eaters and we managed to get through before I heard Harry speak up, “Hagrid, we have to help the others'' Harry said to him, “I can’t do that Harry, Mad-Eye’s Orders.” Hagrid said before he managed to give his bike a boost and I managed to go a little faster as well and as soon as I checked behind us, I saw that we were being followed, “we have Death Eater’s following us.” I said to them, “how many?” Hagrid asked, “three.” I told him, “can you try and keep them off our tail?” He asked me, “I’ll try.” I said before he managed to land on a Highway before I tried fighting the Death Eater’s as I managed to knock one of them off their broom before I decided to change into my Animagus form once I was high enough for no one to see me before I managed to breathe fire before knocking another down before I managed to catch up with Harry and Hagrid after they made it out of the tunnel before I felt something hit me causing me to roar and realized that the Death Eater managed to hit me as it hurt quite a bit before I managed to get a glimpse of blood on my side before seeing that Hedwig had been hit as well before she started falling and after a moment, I felt pain in my neck before seeing something flying towards us and realized that it was Voldemort and I managed to breathe fire while Harry managed to fight back as well before we managed to get the upper hand as he fell back before we managed to continue to make our way to the Burrow and just before we went through the barrier, I began to lose consciousness before I eventually fell to the ground and managed to turn back into myself as I struggled to get up just before Mrs. Weasley came outside and came over to me, “Iris Dear, are you alright?” she asked me, “never better.” I said to her before she helped me up before Harry and Hagrid came over, “Harry, Hagrid what happened? Where are the others?” Mrs. Wasley asked them, “is no one else back?” Harry asked, “they were on us right from the start Molly. We didn’t stand a chance.” Hagrid told them, “we were outnumbered.” I said to her, “well, thank goodness the three of you are alright.” she said to us before Hagrid, Mrs. Weasley and myself made it inside as Hagrid continued to talk about what happened before Harry and Remus helped George into the house before laying him down on the couch before Remus pushed Harry against the wall, “what Creature sat in the corner the first time Harry and Iris Potter visited my office?” Remus asked him, “are you mad?” Harry said, “WHICH CREATURE?” Remus asked again, “a Grindylow.” Harry said before he looked at me, “what is Iris Potter’s Animagus form?” he asked me, “A Dragon.” I told him, “we’ve been betrayed. Voldemort knew the both of you were being moved tonight. I had to make sure neither of you were an imposter.” Remus said to us, “understandable.” I said and I winced a little, “are you alright?” Harry asked me and I nodded before we heard something from outside and Remus and and Harry had gone outside to see who it was before more people arrived and they all eventually came into the house before Fred went over to George, “how are you feeling Georgy?” Fred asked him, “Saint Like.” George said, “come again?” Fred asked, “Saint Like, I’m Holy. I’m Holy Fred, you get it?” George said to him, “the whole wide world of ear related humor and you go for I am Holy, it’s pathetic.” Fred said to him, “Reckin, I'm still better looking than you.” George said before Bill spoke up, “Mad-Eye’s dead. Mundungus took one look at Voldemort and just Apparated.” he said to us and the room was silent for a while.

After some time had passed, everyone was talking amongst themselves and I sat there thinking about what had just happened before I felt someone sit down next to me, “how are you feeling?” Harry asked me, “could have been worse.” I told him, “it looked pretty bad.” he said to me, “feels worse than it looks.” I told him, “I’m sure it does. Just glad you’re alright though.” he said to me and I sighed a little as some of the others managed to leave for the night and both Harry and I continued to talk for a while before the both of us had gone to bed for the night and Ginny, Hermione and myself had gone to Ginny’s room for the night and I just sat on the bed as Ginny and Hermione had gone to sleep as I thought to myself hoping that Draco was doing alright as I held his ring in my hand and after a while, I eventually fell asleep myself. The next day came around and we all had woken up and started getting everything ready and I managed to get dressed for Bill and Fleur’s wedding and once I was done, I went downstairs to help the others outside and not long after we had gotten the tent up, we all saw the Minister arrive as he walked up, “Bloody hell, what’s the Minister of Magic doing here” George questioned before he stopped and looked at all of us, “I need to speak with Iris Potter and Ronald Weasley.” he said before Ron and I looked at each other before we went into the house, “is your brother and Miss. Granger around?” he asked and I went to look for them before I found them, “the Minister is here. He wants to talk to us.” I said to them before we went back downstairs, “to what do we owe the pleasure Minister?” Harry asked him, “I think we both know the answer to that question, Mr. Potter.” the Minister said before we all sat in the living room, “and this is?” Harry asked before the Minister took something out and the piece of Parchment as it floated on the side of us, “here in this said forth the last Will and Testament of Albus Percival Wolfric Brian Dumbledor. First to Ronald Billeus Weasley, I leave my Deluminator. A device of my own making in the hope that when things seem most dark, it will show him the light.” the Minister said before he opened something and took out the Deluminator and gave it to Ron, “Dumbledore left this to me?” Ron Questioned, “that’s what it said.” I told him, “brilliant. What is it?” Ron said, “why don’t you try it out.” I said to him before he had done so, “wicked.” Ron said before the Minister continued, “to Hermione Jean Granger, I leave my copy of the tales of Beedle the Bard in the hope that she finds it entertaining and instructive.” he said before he handed her the book, “mum used to read me those. The Wizard in the Hopping Pot. Babbity Rabbity and the Cackling Stump. Oh come on, Babbity Rabbity? No?” Ron said to us, “to Iris Lily Potter, I give to you the Bird you love most, Fawkes in hope that he will be there when needed.” he said before Fawkes eventually flew into the house and stood next to me on the chair, “bloody hell, I never thought he’d give Fawkes away.” I said to them before the Minister continued, “to Harry James Potter, I leave the Snitch he caught in his first Quidditch Match at Hogwarts as a reminder of the rewards of perseverance and skill.” the Minister said before he gave him the Snitch and I noticed that we all expected something to happen as soon as he touched it but nothing did happen, “is that it then?” Harry asked, “not quite. Dumbledore left you and your sister a second request, the Sword of Godric Gryffindor.” the Minister said, “wait what? Why me, I’m not in Gryffindor at all.” I said to him, “unfortunately the Sword of Gryffindor was not Dumbledore’s to give away. As an important Historical Artifact, it belongs-'' the Minister said before Hermione spoke up, “to Harry and Iris. it belongs to Harry and Iris. it came to them when they both needed it in the Chamber of Secrets.” she said to him, “that’s besides the point. The sword is technically owned by the Ministry or something so Dumbledore didn’t have the right to give it away in the first place.” I said to her, “Miss. Potter has a point, the Sword may present itself to any worthy Gryffindor, Miss. Granger. That does not make it that Wizards property. And any current whereabouts of the Sword are unknown.” the Minister said, “it’s lost?” I asked, “yes, the Sword is missing. I don’t know what you’re up to Mr. and Miss. Potter but neither of you can fight this war on your own. He’s too strong” the Minister said to us and he eventually left the house as we later continued to get everything ready.

Later that night, everyone was having a good time dancing and talking with each other and I also had a bag ready with me with mine and Harry’s things incase anything were to happen before I noticed Ron staring at Hermione and I walked up to him before speaking up, “you’re making it obvious.” I said to him as I smirked a little, “really?” he asked, “well, you made it obvious to me. Why don’t you go dance with her.” I said to him, “I’d just make a fool of myself.” he said to me, “I bloody doubt it.” I said to him as the both of us continued to talk for a while before something landed in the middle of everyone before something spoke up from it, “the Ministry has fallen. The Minister of Magic is dead. They are coming. They are coming.” it said before it disappeared and everyone started to panic before Death Eaters attacked us and some of us managed to stay and fight before I met up with Ron and Hermione before we found Harry before the four of us Apparated and appeared in the middle of a busy road ss we got out of the way just in time as A bus passed us before we followed Hermione, “where are we?” Ron asked, “Shaftesbury Avenue. I used to come to the Theater here with mum and dad. I don’t know why I thought of it, it just popped into my head.” she said to us, “it’s better than anything.” I said to her before we walked down an alleyway, “we need to change.” Hermione said as she started grabbing clothes from her purse, “undetectable Extension Charm.” she said before she gave us clothes to change into, “you’re amazing you are.” Ron said to her, “why the tone of surprise.” she said to him before we heard something fall, “that’ll be the books.” she said before we all got changed before we eventually walked into a coffee shop and sat down, “what about all of the people at the wedding? Do you think we can go back?” Harry asked us, “I doubt it.” I told him, “they’re after the both of you. We’d put everyone in danger.” Ron told him before the worker walked up to us, “coffee?” she asked us, “a cappuccino please.” Hermione said before all ordered the same thing before the woman walked away, “so where do we go from here? The Leaky Cauldron?” Ron asked, “It's too dangerous.” Hermione said, “they’d look there as soon as we get there.” I told him, “if Voldemort has really taken over the Ministry then all of the old places are safe. Everyone from the wedding would have gone underground, into hiding.” Hermione said to us, “My rucksack with all my things, I’ve left it at the Burrow.” Harry said, “not to worry, I packed your things in here and kept it with me in case this happened. Plus Hermione’s purse.” I told him before two men walked into the shop, “thanks.” he said before I felt something off about the men before I looked at Harry, “they’re Death Eaters.” I whispered to them before they attacked us as we took cover before we fought back and just as we got them, the woman walked out of the back and saw what happened, “go.” Hermione told her, “now. Never speak of this.” I said to her before she left before Harry spoke up, “lock the door. Get the lights.” Harry said and I managed to lock the door while Hermione and Ron turned off the lights and closed the blinds before we walked up to the Death Eaters we fought, “this one’s name is Raul, he was on the Astronomy Tower the night Snape killed Dumbledore.” Harry said to us before we saw the man Hermione froze as he laid there, “this is Dalohalf. I recognize him from the wanted posters. So what are we going to do with you? You’d kill us if it was turned around wouldn’t you.” Ron said as he looked at him, “if we kill them, they'll know we were here.” Harry said, “they’d know we were here regardless.” I told him, “Ron, Iris.” Hermione said to us, “suppose he did Mad-Eye? How would you feel then.” Ron said to them, “wipe his memory then.” I suggested to them, “Iris is right, it’s better if we wipe their memories.” Harry said, “you’re the boss. Hermione, you’re the best at spells.” Ron said as we took a step back before Hermione managed to wipe the Death Eater’s memory of what happened.
