The Forbidden Forest
                              
      "Ava-" Voldemort started.
                              
      "Unanimusi!" Harry shouted, not aiming at Voldemort, but at Bellatrix. 
                              
      She attacked Voldemort, who had to stop her Stunning Spell. Seamus did not waste a second and quickly lunged for his wand.
                              
      "Stupefy!" Harry yelled before Seamus got to the wand. 
                              
      He was thrown back and unconscious. Voldemort was Disarming Bellatrix when Harry picked up Seamus's wand and threw it at Snape.
                              
      "Go get the Order!" he shouted, but Snape looked up hesitantly. "GO!!!" he said again. 
                              
      Snape gave one last look. Crack. Dumbledore was on his way. It is going to be alright, he thought, but his scar erupted with pain and he fell to his knees again.  
                              
      "NO!!!" Voldemort shouted. "Fine Potter! But Dumbledore won't get here in time!"
                              
      "Master... please I'm sorry..." Bellatrix begged, apologizing.
                              
      "Shut up! Call the others! The Order is coming!" Voldemort ordered. 
                              
      She hurried from the room and Harry stood back up.
                              
      "Just you and me now Potter," Voldemort sneered. 
                              
      It was not exactly true. Malfoy was still on the floor staring at his father and Seamus was Stunned. Voldemort flicked his wand, but Harry sprung to his left and jumped over the table, flipping it over to hide behind. Voldemort's Killing Curse burned a hole right through the wood.
                              
      "Hiding again, Harry..." Voldemort laughed and blasted away the table.  
                              
      Harry scrambled to his feet and faced Voldemort. He did not have his wand. He had his mother's wand. Their wands would not connect as they had the last time they dueled. Harry was focused. Any pain he had had was gone, as adrenalin pumped through his veins. He gripped his wand tightly.
                              
      "Crucio! Voldemort said, but Harry was ready.
                              
      "Protego!" Harry shouted, sending the spell back at Voldemort.
                              
      "Finite Incantem," he said, lamely. He was toying with him now.
                              
      "Stupefy!" Harry cried, but Voldemort just waved the blast away as if it was nothing. 
                              
      Maybe if I try Animomency... he thought and focused his mind.
                              
      "Impedimenta!" he thought, but Voldemort Vanished Harry's blast.
                              
      "Don't try it Potter... our minds are connected..." Voldemort said, but not aloud. 
                              
      His lips never moved. They were communicating mentally again. Harry had to force him out. He focused his mind and tried to empty out his anxiety and fear.
                              
      "Avada Keda-" Voldemort started, but Harry had another idea. 
                              
      He quickly glanced down and saw a leg from the table on the ground. He sent it right at Voldemort, who used the Reductor Curse to reduce it to dust.
                              
      "Windigardium Leviosa!" Harry shouted and a chair that was behind Voldemort lifted up. He sent it directly at Voldemort. Voldemort moved to stop it and Harry focused his mind filled with hatred.
                              
      "AVADA KEDAVRA!" Harry shouted, but Voldemort conjured a shield like at the Ministry again to block it. 
                              
      The shield was split in two, but Voldemort was unharmed. Harry by now, realized he was no match for Voldemort.
