Chapter — The Fall of Heroes
Harry Potter froze in disbelief — Voldemort was alive. Memories of his past battles and every scar from his tragic journey flashed before his eyes.
"How can you be alive?" Harry demanded.Ron stepped beside him, trembling. "How is that even possible? We destroyed all the Horcruxes — Harry, you killed Voldemort!""I… I don't know," Harry whispered.
Hermione raised her wand, voice firm. "Whatever it is, we won't let you hurt Hogwarts or our families again."Harry glared at Voldemort. "This ends between you and me. Leave Albus out of this."Hermione added, "We're in this together."Ron nodded. "Always."
Harry lifted his wand. "Expecto Patronum!"
Light flared, but Voldemort only laughed. Ron and Hermione joined the attack, casting spell after spell — yet Voldemort deflected every strike with his bare hands."You're all so weak," he hissed. "Did you really think you could defeat Lord Voldemort with such childish tricks?"
Harry's eyes widened — Voldemort's body was half-burned, yet he moved with inhuman speed, his magic alive through his hands. He created a raging storm, trapping them in a whirl of darkness.
"Oh my God — I can't see anything!" Ron shouted.Hermione tried to speak, but the storm choked her voice. Harry clutched his scar as unbearable pain seared his head."Harry — your mark! It's spreading!" Hermione cried.
Voldemort's voice echoed inside their minds. "You failed everyone, Harry — your parents, Cedric, Lupin, Dumbledore, Snape. They all died because of you."Harry's tears mixed with fury, but Voldemort's laughter grew louder. "You're nothing but a loser."
Then Voldemort turned his curse toward Ron. "You couldn't even save Fred," he sneered. Ron broke down, guilt flooding his heart.Hermione gasped as visions of Bellatrix's torture and Dobby's death flashed before her eyes. "You're a useless witch," Voldemort mocked.
The storm fell silent. The three friends dropped to their knees, tears streaming down their faces.Harry suddenly understood — Voldemort wanted to break their unity. Unity is your strength, Dumbledore's voice echoed in his memory.
Harry shouted, "Don't listen to him! That's what he fears most — us, together!"He glared at Voldemort. "You're alone. That's why you'll always lose."
Voldemort's eyes blazed crimson. "Last time you were lucky, Potter. Now I have my own army. I'll kill you, your friends, and destroy Hogwarts itself. Then I'll rule this world!"
Shadows rose behind him — Death Eaters reborn. From the darkness, Bellatrix stepped out and stabbed Hermione before Harry's horrified eyes."Hermione!" he screamed as she collapsed, whispering a final spell for Albus.
Ron roared in grief — then Peter Pettigrew appeared and stabbed him in the stomach. Ron fell, gasping, "Ha…rry…" before going still.
Harry's cry shook the ground. He crawled toward them, but a dark soldier, Dagger, drove a blade into his knee and stomach.Voldemort approached slowly, satisfaction gleaming in his eyes."Poor Potter," he whispered. "You can't even move. Poison runs in your veins — and in theirs. You'll all die slowly while I watch Hogwarts burn."
Harry trembled, paralyzed, as Voldemort leaned closer. "I lost my body because of you. Now I'll take it back — through your son, Albus."
"Daddy…" Albus whispered weakly before losing consciousness. Harry cried helplessly, unable to reach him.Voldemort smirked. "You're nothing but a loser."
Voldemort stopped Bellatrix from striking again. "He must live," he said coldly. "He'll watch my rule, my power, my destruction."Ron and Hermione's eyes filled with tears; they could not move, only look at Harry with silent pain.Then Voldemort and his army vanished into the sky with Albus in their grasp.
From the distance, James Sirius Potter, Rose Granger-Weasley, and Scorpius Malfoy came running, their wands shining bright through the darkness.James saw faint shadows disappearing above. He rushed to his father and held him tight. Rose knelt beside Hermione, crying uncontrollably, while Scorpius supported Ron.
Harry smiled faintly at them, his strength fading. "Save Hogwarts… and Al…" he whispered. His hand opened, and James found Albus's bracelet resting in his palm.
Hermione's eyes softened. She blessed Rose with her final breath."Mom… Dad… please wake up!" Rose pleaded, shaking them gently.James clutched his father. "Dad, please! Aunt Hermione, Uncle Ron—wake up!"
Scorpius held Ron's hand, tears streaking his face. "I'll fight with them," he vowed quietly. "Even if I'm a Malfoy—I'll protect Hogwarts, and I won't forgive those who hurt you."
Harry, Ron, and Hermione managed faint smiles before falling still.James collected a single tear from Harry's cheek into a small flask — a symbol of his promise. He turned to Rose and Scorpius. Together, they placed their hands as one.
"We'll save Hogwarts," James said firmly. Rose added, "We'll bring you all back."Scorpius whispered, "And we'll end Voldemort forever."
Harry, Ron, Hermione left unconscious but are alive.
James consoles Rose and says they are alive and got poisoned but its not permanent we will bring them back at any cost and save Hogwarts.
James Sirius Potter, Rose Granger Weasley and Scorpius Malfoy joined their hands together. They look into each other eyes with determination to save everyone from evil.
Their joined light glowed brighter, cutting through the darkness. From that moment — a new legacy was born
