Chapter 16 The Defeat Hermione noticed Alexa crying silently and looking at her mother. "Ron, Hermione, go. Please. Just go. I don't want you to get hurt. Please." "No. We're not going." "Are these your rescuers, Alexa?" Salisha laughed cruelly. "I shall have fun killing them." Salisha summoned her wand and it flew out of Ron's hands and back to her. "Cr--" This time Alexa running at her and knocking her off the cliff interrupted her. Salisha's wand had flown out of her hand and into the rocky river below. Salisha, herself had grabbed onto Alexa's hand while Alexa was hanging half off the cliff with Ron and Hermione trying to pull her up. "Mother." Alexa said, starting to cry more violently now. "I have to do this. You know I do. I can't let you and Father take over. I just can't. I hope you understand. Goodbye Mother." Alexa whispered and let go of her mother's hand and let Ron and Hermione pull her up. "Harry!" Alexa suddenly said. She wiped the tears off her face and sprinted toward where Harry and Voldemort were dueling. "You have learned much since we last dueled." Voldemort said. "This makes it much more fun to kill you. Ah, look. Here comes my daughter. Decided to join us have you Alexa?" "The world will turn upside down and inside out before I'd do that." "Your mother failed in killing you then. Where is she?" "Don't worry. You'll be joining her soon." Harry noticed Alexa was trembling. "Goodbye Father" Alexa whispered. "Crucio!" Voldemort yelled, his wand pointing at Alexa and Harry. But Alexa and Harry were no longer there. Instead, two cats, one black and the other brown tiger striped, were in their place. "They're Anamagi?" Hermione whispered to Ron from behind a tree. "So. You think you can escape your death by becoming Anamagi." Voldemort said. "Accio." the brown tiger striped cat came flying toward him and he caught it and held onto it by the scruff of the neck. He repeated it and the black cat flew toward him. "Now. Either transform back into yourselves or be painfully transformed." The brown cat seemed to glare at him but transformed into Alexa. The black cat followed and turned into Harry. Harry noticed Alexa was still crying. Alexa gripped her wand tightly and whispered, "Goodbye" As Harry watched Alexa, he remembered a song he had heard on Dudley's radio but couldn't remember anything about it except it had something to do with a miracle. (A/N: I know what song it is, but it's copywrited so I can't put it in and have it posted because it's illegal and if it weren't I'd have it in here.) "Goodbye" Alexa said again. "Avada Kedavra! Avada Kedavra! Avada Kedavra!" she shouted, her wand pointing at Voldemort. The flash of green light and the familiar rushing sound of death came back. Harry looked back at the spot where Voldemort had once stood and in his place was a strange form. "I have no human in me. I cannot die." it said, it's voice horribly high. "We'll see. Fireblastyria!" she shouted. A huge fireball materialized from Alexa's wand and shot toward the strange figure. When the fireball reached it, it burned the form and everything else within five feet around to ashes. After the fire disappeared, the strange form was gone. Only the wand lay there. Alexa walked over to the wand, snapped it in half, conjured a fure and put the pieces of the wand in it.
