Y/N POV
As we cast the spell, the blue flames surrounded us and Voldemort, and made sure the Death Eaters stayed away from us as well.
"If any of you have got brains," I yelled. "You wouldn't try to get through!"
And just like that, one of them tried to pass through, but got burned from the fire.
"Guess he didn't have any. I warned you, sick sons of bitchs!"
"What does that spell do!" Harry shouted as he continued to duel Voldemort.
"Protects us from them," Lana said. "And they can't get through unless they're loyal to the person who cast it. Which none of them are!"
Voldemort continued to press on with the Killing Curse as Lana and I kept the Death Eaters at bay. They were prestistant, I'll give them that. We kept shouting spells while controlling the flames.
"Confingo!" Lana yelled at them.
"Bombarda!" I shouted. "Diffindo!"
Harry turned around to see how we kept them back away from us as Voldemort shouted, "Don't you turn your back at me, Harry Potter! I want you to look at me when I kill you, I want to see the light leave your eyes!"
The flames began to manifest into a blue fiery dragon as it roared at the Death Eaters and destroyed everything in it's path, which allowed us to help Harry. As the remaining Death Eaters within the circle began to help, Voldemort cried. "Do nothing. He is mine to finish! He's mine!"
We merged out spells with Harry's to counter Voldemort, but two ghosty figures emerged from Voldemort's wand, one looking like Harry. The other I didn't know.
"He's a real wizard, then?" The ghost asked. "Killed me, that one did. You fight him... and you win."
"James?" I said to myself.
"Harry, Lana, Y/N," The spectre said. "When the connection is broken, you must get to the Portkey. We can delay it for a moment to give you three time. Your mother's coming, Harry."
Then a female voice came through as I recognized the figure that emerged.
"Lily?" Lana and I said.
"Let go, children." Lily said with a smile on her face, happy to see her son and her godchildren. "You're ready. Langden's coming too."
(A/N: Damn... this gif look amazing, not gonna lie.)
Then another spectre flowed out of the wand, looking like the man I saw four years ago in the Mirror of Erised.
"Dad?" I asked with tears flowing through my eyes. Lana was crying too.
"I'm so proud of you both," Langden said with a smile on his face. We were hearing his voice for the first time. "You both have made me a proud father. I love you both so much. When you go... tell your mother something for me, will you?"
"Anything." Lana said.
"Tell her I love her so much," Langden said. "She's raised two incredible children. Now, take the Portkey!"
As the connection broke, the ghosts remained as Harry summoned the cup to him. As he brought it to us, I looked at the ghost of Lily, who still smiled at us. "Y/N, Lana," She said. "Thank you for helping my son all these years. You are truly like my children."
I nodded as we grabbed on to the Portkey. I felt a strange sensation as we lurched to the Pitch as we found the audience cheering as we returned. That strange feeling was still there, but then I realized something as I looked down.
I was stabbed with Wormtail's dagger.
And the last person that had it was...
My uncle.
Lana shrieked in fear as I collapsed to the ground, shocking everyone in the crowd.
Hermione POV
I ran to the pitch after Y/N collapsed to the ground as Addison followed me. I ran as fast as I could and ran towards his body as soon as I laid eyes on him. It looked like he was stabbed with something and I pulled it out of his chest. Good thing it didn't aim for his heart. Harry came down and tried to shake him awake as Addison checked his pulse.
"He's not breathing!" She said to Dumbledore.
"How did this happen?" Dumbledore asked Harry. "Tell me what happened!"
"He's back, he's back!" Harry shouted. "Voldemort's back! That Nathan person stabbed Y/N, he's his uncle!"
"Uncle?!" Addison said as she tried to heal his wound. "Nathan was there!? He stabbed my son?! Oh, I am going to kill him!"
I didn't know what to do, so I did one of the things that I learned from my parents. I tried using CPR on him and began the compressions on his chest as I put my hands on his chest.
"One, two, three..." all the way until thirty. Still nothing. I tried mouth-to-mouth, still nothing.
"Please, Y/N, don't die on me!" I shouted. "Don't leave us! Don't leave me!"
I still continued but nothing had happened. I thought he was dead as I cried and Lana hugged me as she cried too. Harry was taken by Moody, as Cedric ran over to see him to find himself shocked at the sight of his unmoving body. He shook as he looked at us.
"He saved my life..." Cedric said. "At the expense of his..."
"What do you mean?" I said in tears.
"Y/N and Lana... they told me I was going to die if I came with them." He said. "I didn't trust them at first, but now I believe them. Y/N wasn't lying when he told me in the first place. He's a hero... I'm forever grateful to him."
"He's always saving someone, isn't he?" I said as tears dripped down my face. "My hero..." I caressed his cheek as I held his body. "I love you so much..." I thought all hope was lost.
Until his eyes shot open and he coughed for breath.
"Goddamn it," He croaked before I slammed my lips on his in front of everyone. "Hermione?"
"Never-scare-me-like-that-again!" I said as I hit him before I hugged him. "I love you, I love you, I love you!" I kept kissing him and he melted into it.
"I thought I lost you..." I pressed my forehead on his.
"I'm so sorry, 'Mione," Y/N said. "I never meant to scare you like that, I love you too much to hurt you like that."
"I love you too, just don't do that again!"
"I know, 'Mione." He said. "I told you, I want to do everything with you, babe. I want to spend the rest of my life with you." He kissed me again, not caring about everyone watching us.
"Where's Harry?" Y/N asked as we stopped.
"Moody took him somewhere," I said. "We should get you to the Hospital wing."
"Not yet," Y/N said. "I want to know -ugh- if Moody knew the cup was a Portkey."
"What do you mean?" I asked.
"Voldemort wanted us to be there," He said. "Meaning that portkey was intentional. Moody knew where to put it, so it's a good chance that he knew about it."
"No, I'll go and check, Y/N," Lana said. "Cedric, you help 'Mione get him to the hospital wing?"
"Absolutely," Cedric agreed as I put Y/N's arm around my shoulder while Cedric took the other. Addison accompanied us to the hospital wing as Madam Pomfrey had tried to fully heal the stab wound.
"I'm sure you have questions," Addison said. "About... Nathan."
"Voldy said he was your brother, or half-brother." Y/N said. "He's Vinda's son, isn't he?"
"Yes, before she met Grindelwald," Addison said. "He was there the night Langden got killed."
"I cut off his wand arm." Y/N said to our surprise. "But he wants to kill us and the ones we care about! I'm not letting him lay a finger on Hermione or Ron!"
I took his hand as he looked at me with a caring look on his face. "I'm guessing Lana fancies Ron?" I asked as he nodded.
"I'm not letting him either, honey," Addison said. "I'm going to make sure he doesn't lay a finger on any of you. And I'm kinda proud you put off his hand." She smirked as he smiled a little. "Oh, and one more thing," Y/N said. "Dad said he loves you."
Addison's look softened as she smiled kindly. "I love him too." She said. "I miss him so much. You take rest right now. Hermione, please make sure he does."
"Of course," I said as she left the room to join her daughter along with Cedric.
"Are you hurt anywhere else?" I asked Y/N as I pointed to his forehead. He nodded and I lightly kissed it.
"Right here?" I pointed to his eye and he nodded again, allowing me to kiss him above the eye. "And here?" I pointed to his cheek, where a small cut laid on his skin and kissed it. Y/N moved a little so that our lips connected with the other. We passionately kissed each other as I moved on top of him and continued to kiss him. He wrapped his arms around me tight and continued to kiss me.
"I'll stay with you tonight," I said.
"And I have no objections to that." He said as he kissed me again. I sat in fron of him as the back of my head laid on his chest as he wrapped his arms around my chest near my belly. I kissed him again as I laid there comfortably.
Lana POV
The Professors, Mum and I walked to the room that Moody held Harry in as Mum burst through as the other Professors.
"STUPEFY!" Mum yelled at Moody who was talking to Harry manciningly. "Who the hell are you and why are you posing as Alastor Moody!?" Dumbledore was furious, for the first time I've seen in my life.
"Come along, Potter," Grandma said as she was about to usher Harry out, but Dumbledore stopped her.
"No," He said.
"Dumbledore, he ought to - look at him - they've been through enough tonight -"
"He will stay, Minerva, because he needs to understand. Understanding is the first step to acceptance, and only with acceptance can there be recovery. He needs to know who has put him through the ordeal he has suffered tonight, and why."
"Moody," Harry said. "How can it have been Moody?"
"This is not Alastor Moody," Dumbledore said. "You have never known Alastor Moody. The real Moody would not have removed you from my sight after what happened tonight. The moment he took you, I knew - and I followed."
He grabbed 'Moody's hip flask and a set of keys out of his pocket. "Severus, please fetch me the strongest Truth Potion you possess, and then go down to the kitchens and bring up the house-elf called Winky. Minerva, kindly go down to Hagrid's house, where you will find a large black dog sitting in the pumpkin patch. Take the dog up to my office, tell him I will be with him shortly, then come back here."
Dumbledore took the keys and unlocked the chest with the seven locks. As he opened the trunk open, Harry and I looked into the chest to find Moody, without his leg, his eye, and missing some hair.
"Stunned - controlled by the Imperius Curse - very weak," Dumbledore said. "Of course, they would have needed to keep him alive. Harry, throw down the imposter's cloak - he's freezing. Madam Pomfrey will need to see him, but he seems in no immediate danger."
He then took the cork and unscrewed it to pour thick liquid. "Polyjuice Potion, Harry," said Dumbledore. "You see the simplicity of it, and the brilliance. For Moody never does drink except from his hip flask, he's well known for it. The imposter needed, of course, to keep the real Moody close by, so that he could continue making the potion. You see his hair . . . The imposter has been cutting it off all year, see where it is uneven? But I think, in the excitement of tonight, our fake Moody might have forgotten to take it as frequently as he should have done . . . on the hour . . . every hour. . . . We shall see."
Soon enough, Moody's appearance changed before our eyes. His scars faded as the eye popped out. His leg regrew as the peg leg popped off as well. Now a middle-aged man sat in his place, as Snape came with Winky.
"Crouch!" He said. "Barty Crouch!"
Winky looked at the man and cried, "Master Barty, Master Barty, what is you doing here? You is killed him! You is killed him! You is killed Master's son!"
"He is simply stunned, Winky," Dumbledore said. "Severus, do you have the potion?"
Snape handed the potion to Dumbledore as he tipped the man's head back to drug him.
"Do you know who we are?" Dumbledore asked the imposter.
"Albus Dumbledore," The imposter said. "Addison Lovegood."
"How did you escape from Azkaban?" Mum asked.
"My mother saved me. She knew she was dying. She persuaded my father to rescue me as a last favor to her. He loved her as he had never loved me. He agreed. They came to visit me. They gave me a draft of Polyjuice Potion containing one of my mother's hairs. She took a draft of Polyjuice Potion containing one of my hairs. We took on each other's appearance."
"Say no more, Master Barty, say no more, you is getting your father into trouble!" Winky said.
Crouch ignored her. "The dementors are blind. They sensed one healthy, one dying person entering Azkaban. They sensed one healthy, one dying person leaving it. My father smuggled me out, disguised as my mother, in case any prisoners were watching through their doors. My mother died a short while afterward in Azkaban. She was careful to drink Polyjuice Potion until the end. She was buried under my name and bearing my appearance. Everyone believed her to be me."
"And what did your father do with you, when he had got you home?" Dumbledore asked.
"Staged my mother's death. A quiet, private funeral. That grave is empty. The house-elf nursed me back to health. Then I had to be concealed. I had to be controlled. My father had to use a number of spells to subdue me. When I had recovered my strength, I thought only of finding my master . . . of returning to his service."
He explained more about his escape, how he was the one who cast the Dark Mark and how he returned to Voldemort and Wormtail.
"I offered to carry the Triwizard Cup into the maze before dinner. Turned it into a Portkey. My master's plan worked. He is returned to power and I will be honored by him beyond the dreams of wizards."
"You crazy bitch," I said as he laughed loudly as Mum escorted us to the hospital wing as the dog followed us with the real Alastor Moody, where we found Y/N and Hermione sleeping together, Hermione sleeping in front of Y/N as he cuddled her from behind. Mum smiled at the two of them.
"They're adorable together," She said. "Reminds me of your father and I. You will have the same with Ron, sweetheart."
"How did you --"
"When Y/N told me about my brother," She said. "He mentioned that Nathan threatened him and Hermione as well. I know you will have your time with Ron too."
"Yeah," I said. "He can be a bit daft at times, but I still care for him. As for Y/N and Hermione, they're soulmates.
Moody was put on a bed and tended to as the dog turned back into Sirius. As Mum saw Sirius in his human form, she hugged him as he had returned the same.
"It's good to see you again, cousin," Sirius said.
"You too, Sirius," Mum said with a small laugh. Dumbledore came in after a while and Harry had told him how we saw the ghosts to which Dumbledore responded with the Priori Incantatem effect, which happened when a wand meets its brother. As Harry and Voldemort's wands clashed, it allowed Voldemort's recent and other victims to become shadows of the living in reverse order. The old man was recently killed, which was why he came first.
As everyone else flooded the room, Sirius turned back into a dog and stayed with us as Harry and I were put into other hospital beds.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The next day, things may have turned for the worse. Apparently as Fudge came to talk to Barty Crouch Jr, he brought a Dementor with him, who had performed the kiss on Crouch, leaving Fudge with no questions answered and Barty an empty shell with no soul. I found out after I woke up today. Harry had slept peacefully for the first time and Y/N was still sleeping with Hermione next to him.
Everyone would be leaving today, so it was our last day at Hogwarts too. We would be leaving later today. I got up from my bed and walked over to Y/N and Hermione waiting for them to wake up. Y/N was completely healed after being stabbed and he was resting peacefully. Luckily, both of them woke up at the same time.
"Morning," Hermione said as she woke up with Y/N.
"You two okay?" I asked. "After what happened last night?"
"I guess so," Y/N said. "When I see Nathan again, I'm giving him a piece of his own medicine. And I'm staying by Hermione's side from now on." He turned to her as she looked into his eyes. "I'm never leaving you like that again. Ever."
Hermione pulled him closer to her and kissed him. "I love you," She said.
"I love you more." Y/N said again as he continued the kiss.
"Sorry to interrupt," Harry said to us. "But should we get ready?"
"We should," I said as we stood up. "I'll get ready to go and Luna and I'll see you there. I'll see you lot soon. Oh, and Harry, you owe me 10 galleons."
Y/N POV
After we were all discharged, everyone knew Hermione was my girlfriend, so no point in hiding it. We helped each other get packed and snuck in a few snogs as we did, but eventually we were all ready to leave for the summer.
"You know, babe," Hermione said as she sat down on my bed. "I'm glad we're public now. With the Tournament done, people won't peer into our lives anymore."
"I agree," I said. "And we don't have to kiss in secret anymore, do we?" She giggled and kissed me as we got our things and our pets in their carriers. Snuffles ran up in the front pocket of my overcoat as Hermione and I joined our hands and walked out the Gryffindor Common Room with Ron and Harry. We met up with the other Weasleys, Lana and Luna to say goodbye to the other students. As we did, Fleur and Gabrielle came over to us. Gabrielle hugged Lana and I again, and hugged Hermione too while Fleur was talking to us.
"I am glad I got to meet you both," Fleur said. "I'm going to miss you both very much. Oh, and one zhing." She reached into her pocket and gave us both a piece of paper. "Please do write to us. We would love to hear from you both."
"Pleaseeeeee?" Gabrielle pleaded in French. Who are we to say no to someone younger than us?
"Yes, Gabrielle," I said as I got down to her level. "We'll write to you both."
"Pinky promise?" She said as she held her pinky up to me.
"Yeah, promise," I said as I crossed my finger with hers. "Oh, and Fleur, did you mean what you said about us in the maze?"
Hermione's head turned quickly as he stared at Fleur, who didn't notice her furious look at her. "Hmm?" She asked. "Oh, about the brother and sister thing? I did mean it, you both have been like siblings to me, and of course, my own siblings love to be around you too, so-"
Before Fleur could continue, Lana and I went up to her and hugged her like how we would hug each other. Fleur laughed for a moment and hugged us back and let go.
"I will miss you both so much," Fleur said. "We must be going soon too, I must get to the Carriage. Take care of yourselves." She also kissed our foreheads in a sisterly manner as she left with Gabrielle who waved goodbye to us.
"Excuse me," A gruff voice said behind me, as I turned around to find Krum behind me.
"Oh no, not again," I said as I put my hand on my forehead while Hermione took my hand. "What do you want now?"
"Nothing," Krum said. "But can I talk vith you? In private?"
I looked at Hermione and looked back at Krum. "5 Minutes. All you've got."
As Krum and I walked to a corner, he stopped, "I am sorry for how I judged you," He said. "That Potter boy told me what you did, I didn't know better."
"What did Harry tell you?" I asked.
"How you killed a Basilisk. And how you protected her many times. You clearly are a better person than me. Even better, I'd suppose. I acted on vendetta, you were trying to be better than who vhey made you out to be."
"What about the Prophet? Anyone believed that I attacked you."
"Do not worry about the Prophet," He said. "I vill clear things up."
"You'd do that for us?" I asked.
"You have proved yourself to everyone here." He said. "It vill be time for the world to know as vell. Goodbye, Lovegood." He said as he put his hand for me to shake as I did and he walked to his ship.
"Do you think we'll ever have a quiet year at Hogwarts?" Ron asked.
"No," Hermione said
"Nope." Lana added.
"No even once," I said.
"No, I don't think we will," Harry said.
"Things are going to change now," Hermione said as she ruffled through her bag and pulled a copy of the Daily Prophet and handed it to us. "You can check it. There's nothing in there by Rita Skeeter. Just says you won the tournament."
"They'll never keep Rita quiet," Harry said as he took the copy. "Not on something like this."
Hermione winked at me with a smile. "Who says they kept Rita quiet?" She then pulled out a jar with a beetle. "Rita Skeeter isn't going to be writing anything at all for a while. Not unless she wants me to spill the beans on her."
"I found out how she was listening in on private conversations when she wasn't supposed to be coming onto the grounds," Hermione said. "It's because..."
"She's like us!" I exclaimed. "She's an Animagus! Hermione Granger, you beautiful genius!" I kissed her straight on the lips as she smiled.
"Thank you, babe," Hermione smiled and pecked my lips. "And she is Unregistered as well. She can turn into this beetle. That's how she was talking to Draco, how she knew about Hagrid's mum, everything! She's been there the whole time."
As we boarded the train, Hermione put the jar back in her bag. "I've told her I'll let her out when we get back to London," She said. "I've put an Unbreakable Charm on the jar, you see, so she can't transform. And I've told her she's to keep her quill to herself for a whole year. See if she can't break the habit of writing horrible lies about people."
"Very clever, Granger," Draco said to us as Crabbe and Goyle.
"Why the hell are you all smirking?" I asked. "We know your parents are Death Eaters."
"So," Malfoy said. "You caught some pathetic reporter, and Potter's Dumbledore's favorite boy again. Big deal."
"Get out," Harry growled.
"You've picked the losing side, Potter! I warned you! I told you you ought to choose your company more carefully, remember? When we met on the train, first day at Hogwarts? I told you not to hang around with riffraff like this!"
He jerked his head at us. "Too late now, Potter! They'll be the first to go, now the Dark Lord's back! Mudbloods and Muggle-lovers first! Well - second - Diggory was meant to-"
A deafening sound blasted through our compartment as the three Slytherins were all unconscious. All five of us had used a hex of the three, btu we weren't the only ones to do that.
"Thought we'd see what those three were up to," Fred said as he had his wand out while he and his brother walked over their bodies.
"Interesting effect," George said. "Who used the Furnunculus Curse?"
"Me," Harry said.
"The Tooth-widening hex?" George said.
"Both of us," Lana said.
"Bit of revenge on him," I said. "Deverses it for 'Mione."
"Well then," Fred said as Ginny and Luna joined us. "Exploding Snap, anyone?"
"Ay, Fred, George," I said after a game of Exploding Snap as I took my winnings from the cup. "Take it."
"Ours too." Lana and Harry offered theirs too. "For your joke shop."
"They've gone mental," Fred said to his brother.
"Nope," I said. "You need this more than us. It's your passion, so go for it. I could do with a few laughs. We could all do with a few laughs. I've got a feeling we're going to need them more than usual before long."
"Just don't tell your mum where you got it . . . although she might not be so keen for you to join the Ministry anymore, come to think of it. . . ." Harry said.
"Harry," Fred began, but Harry pulled out his wand. "Look," he said flatly, "take it, or I'll hex you. I know some good ones now. Just do me one favor, okay? Buy Ron some different dress robes and say they're from you."
After a while, we arrived at the Platform and unboarded the train. Hermione took my hand and brought me over to her parents again. "Hey, Mum," She greeted him with a hug. "Hey, Dad. Y/N and I have something to tell you."
Monica and Wendell looked at me as Lana stood behind us watching. "Y/N's my boyfriend now." She said with a smile.
Monica's face widened into a happy smile. "We know, sweetheart." She said to our surprise. "Y/N's mum sent an owl to us, he and his sister are staying with us until she gets everything ready."
"What?" We asked.
"How come?" I asked politely . "I don't mind, but what's Mum doing?"
"We have the letter at home," Wendell said as he looked at Lana. "You must be Lana. It's nice to meet you."
"Same to you, Mr. Granger," Lana said.
"Please, call me Wendell," Wendell said with a smile. 'Y/N, we'll let you share with Hermione again, Lana, you can share with them too, we're still modelling that room..."
"Oh, that's alright," Hermione said with glee. "Could we say goodbye to Harry and Ron?"
"Of course, Hermione," Wendell said. "And good on you, Y/N."
We walked to the boys and the other Weasleys. Mrs. Wealsey hugged us all goodbye and whispered something in Harry's ear before they left and the Dursleys came around as well. I hugged Harry goodbye and so did Hermione and Lana. Luna already went home with Uncle Xeno, so we hugged her before Harry.
"Good luck, mate," I said. "You need breaking out, we'll be there."
"Thanks, mate," Harry said. "Have fun at your girlfriend's."
"I'll be loving everyone with her," I said. "Take care, brother."
Harry waved goodbye to us as he joined the Dursleys. We walked back to the Grangers, where they took us to their car. Along the way, Hermione took my hand and smiled at me. "This is going to be great!" She said. "I can show you both around London!"
"You want me to come on one of your dates?" Lana said. "Won't I be a third wheel or something?"
"Oh no," Hermione said. "I don't mind if you come, but there might be times where it's just me and Y/N. No offense, Lana"
"I understand," Lana said. "You're dating my brother now, and I completely get it if there are moments for just the two of you."
About 30 minutes later, Hermione fell asleep on my shoulder, so I wrapped my arms around her as she snuggled into me with Snuffles, of course, being in between us. Lana looked at me, smiled and patted my shoulder as she watched us fall asleep.
'This is going to be a great summer,' I thought to myself.
'Especially when I'm with you, 'Mione. I love you.'
