CHAPTER SIXTEEN: WHAT HAPPENS IN THE GRAVEYARD.
Harry awoke tied up to a fancy looking gravestone with a large cauldron sitting before him filled with a strange bubbling liquid. A small balding man scurried around it adding ingredients and stirring every so often. It took a moment for Harry to recognize him but when he did Harrys blood ran cold and his anger rose
"Peter Pettigrew" He hissed angrily struggling against his ropes as to reach a wand and hex the traitorous man.
Peter known more commonly as Wormtail looked to Harry but said nothing as he continued to dart around the cauldron set up off to one side, such as lighting a fire pouring potions into the cauldron itself and tending to a small bundle laying to one side.
"It is ready master" Wormtail said in a solemn tone to the bundle
"Well done Wormtail" a shrill voice echoed from the bundle "Do it now"
It was as though Wormtail flipped over a stone into the cauldron as a deformed baby sized thing tumbled into the bubbling potion.
"Bone of the father unknowingly given" Wormtail began summoning a bone from Harry's feet and dumping it into the potion "You will renew your son"
"Flesh of the servant willingly given" Wormtail continued slicing his hand off at the wrist and it fell into the potion "You will….revive…your master"
Wormtail stumbled towards Harry with a flash of pain on his face slicing Harrys arm with a deep cut Harry winced at the pain as Wormtail cupped some of his blood in a small bottle and stumbled back towards the cauldron.
"Blood of the enemy…..forcibly taken you will resurrect your foe"
"Go-one take my flaming blood" Harry said as he struggled against the binds not knowing what to do and how to do it. The potion turned a brilliant white after Wormtail put in his blood as he slumped against a gravestone clasping at his bleeding stump. Light rose from the cauldron and after a few antagonizing minuites a large spindly figure rose out of it white skinned flat featured and bald. Harry unconsciously shivered as the…thing stepped out of the cauldron
"Robe me Wormtail" it hissed "And give me my wand"
Harry fought back the urge to throw up as Wormtail robed the thing before him and handed over a wand. Lord Voldemort had risen again.

'Harry I can here you' Elphaba whispered in Harrys Mind 'People are ready to rescue you their getting into position now'
"Wormtail your arm" Voldemort ordered after checking all limbs and feeling his face
"Oh thank you my lord" Wormtail wheezed offering up his wounded limb from where he sat
"Other arm Wormtail" Voldemort hissed Wormtail offered his other arm which more a distinctive marl a snake sliding out of a skull Voldemort hiked Wormtail to his feet them pressed a finger to it. Harry saw Wormtail wince and squirm for a few moments before the sound of multiple apparitions echoed around them. Several people stood in black cloaks robes and white skull masks.
'Harry you're going to have to hold out a bit longer ok' Elphaba muttered 'Amelia wants their names'
"My old friends" Voldemort began "For thirteen years you hid behind a mask claiming you were spelled or potioned to be with me…..whilst I survived in a forest alone a mere specter"
"I made an effort" Wormtail began in a whimpered voice
"After you had no-where else to go" Voldemort angrily spat "but since you brought me something to work with"
Voldemort conjured a silver hand for Wormtail to replace the one he lost
"Th…Thank you master" Wormtail sputtered and shuffled back into line to admire the spell work.
Voldemort then began to walk down the circle of people rattling off names that Harry passed onto Elphaba Crabbe, Goyle, McNair, Avery a set of twins Carrow and Carrow. Harry mentally grinned as Voldemort announced Malfoy to the group at large
'WE HAVE THE BASTARD NOW' Elphaba screamed in Harrys' head earning a wince from Harry 'Sorry Harry'
"This Boy" Voldemort announced pointing to Harry finally realizing Harry was awake "Has been the bane of me all his life….and tonight I will kill him"
The men and women around him chuckled in delight as Harry mentally squared himself seeing the positions of his allies being sent to him from Elphaba in the back of his mind.
"Cut him down Wormtail" Voldemort ordered loudly "and give him his wand I will duel the brat first"
"Unlikely" Harry muttered as Wormtail cut him down and handed him his wand.
"Right now we bow" Voldemort said forcing harry to bow with his wand "Come on potter Dumbledore would have taught you better than that"
"Yeah like he taught you? Repulso" he spat back as he fired the spell at several of the death eaters before running for cover. Voldemort and several death eaters fired spells back at Harry….he was sure he was going to die out here.
"No he's mine" Voldemort cried out loudly as Harry dodged several spells at once
'CHARRRRRRGE' a voice echoed around them that Harry was positive was Elphabas
For one moment it was just Harry alone against Voldemort and the death-eaters and the next his family minas Elphaba bore down on the group alongside Amelia bones several Aurors and several Teachers of Hogwarts.

Harry watched out of the corner of his eye as numerous people fought the death eaters outside their dueling circle. Harry saw that Voldemort was distracted and went on the offensive firing as many dangerous hexes and spells as he knew, privately thanking his friends for insisting he learned the more darker spells they had found. The boldness Harry seized sent Voldemort on the back foot for several minuites before he began firing back with an angry fever very few had seen before.
"Avada Kedava" Voldemort yelled as a sickly green beam of light shot out of his wand
"Expelliarmous" Harry yelled in return as a red beam of light shot out of his. The two spells met violently in mid air and something strange began to happen. Harrys' wand began vibrating as though electricity was buzzing through it. The colors of the spells faded into a gold light and a small spherical bead half-way along formed as the contact point. Harry felt the urge to force the beam of light towards Voldemort and did so it was a force of wills until the golden bead of light connected with Voldemorts' wand. The magic began to form a magical sphere between the warring troops and the warring Leaders.
"Priori Incantartem" Sirius breathed before being caught by one of Lucius Malfoys spells. Susan tried to help Sirius as Neville, Daphne and Amelia fired several deadly spells at Lucius in response. As they fought against several others one of Nevilles spells combined with another and magically beheaded Nagini, Voldemorts snake.
"Look now tom" Harry called out holding onto his wand with both hands for dear life "It's just you and me" several men and woman formed from Voldemorts wand and surrounded them, Harrys heart leapt in his throat as his mother began to form out of the wand.
"My son" Lilly said after forming "Hold on your father is coming hold on my brave boy"
James followed suit to Lilly and soon they stood either side of Harry
"We're with you Always" James said in a firm proud tone "And we will help you…..on my signal break the connection and we will distract him get to safety with the others"
Harry nodded in understanding and strengthened his hold on his wand
'I'm with you Brother' came the voice of Elphaba in the back of Harrys head 'We're all with you'
"NOW" the specter of James cried and the group of specters rushed at Voldemort as Harry retched his wand upwards breaking the connection.
The battle around them faded from Harrys hearing as he darted between the gravestones towards the safety of his friends. Voldemort cried in anger and fired a spell towards Harry catching him on the shoulder and throwing harry off balance and tumbling to the ground. The specters faded from view revealing the destruction caused by such a magically charged wand fight. Harry's wand blindly aimed at Voldemort as he mentally screamed 'BOMBARDIA!'
Several of the Death Eaters had fallen to the new groups attack as the remaining death eaters fled to re-group elsewhere at a later date alongside their Lord. Voldemort vanished as the spell hit him taking a severely wounded Lucius Malfoy and an unconscious Peter Pettigrew with him and leaving the group tired and amongst several dead death eater wizards. Harry lay on the ground weakened magically breathing heavily as he tried to remain conscious; Daphne and Susan ran to his side and began to heal him. Harry passed out as he felt the now familiar tug of a Port-key and was pulled away to safety.
