Together [HP]

Most of the Death Eaters' trials were decided in the week before the holiday. There was no escape from being imprisoned in Azkaban. The only difference was how long they would be imprisoned.However, except for one person.Narcissa Malfoy.No matter how many times Kingsley suggested it, Yuna was the head of a group of senior Wizengamot members who used various reasons to prevaricate it.It wasn't until the day before the holiday that they made a decision and set the final trial date as July [-]st.

The tragic final exam is over. Although the final grades of most people are not ideal, this cannot conceal their joy of going home.Jacqueline leaned against the door of her dormitory, watching Pansy busily packing her suitcases in the dormitory.She suddenly realized that she seemed a little reluctant to leave here.

"I'll be back soon," Pansy yelled, arms outstretched, when she finally packed all her stuff into the box. "I won't be parted from here for too long."

Jacqueline looked at Pansy, she didn't understand a little, but soon she understood, "Oh, Pansy, you can't be..."

"Yes!" Pansy nodded vigorously, "Yes, that's what you think!"

"Really?" Jacqueline blinked. She pretended to be surprised and stared at Pansy. "Are you really planning to replace Hagrid as the key keeper?"

"Jacqueline!" Pansy yelled, pumping her fists angrily.

"Oh," Jacqueline nodded suddenly, "If it wasn't for Hagrid, then it must be replacing Filch as the administrator."

"I'm going to be an astronomy teacher, Jacqueline Graham, you idiot." Pansy bared her teeth and yelled at Jacqueline, "Yes, that's right, I will be in charge of the Astronomy Tower from now on. I will definitely point out Let it tell everyone at Hogwarts that it's your favorite meeting place with Gryffindor's know-it-all, Miss Hermione Granger."

"But, Pansy." Jacqueline spread her hands, "Have you forgotten your dream of traveling the world?"

"Of course not!" Pansy shook a piece of rolled up and fluffed parchment from his robe in front of Jacqueline, "I've already made plans, and I'm leaving after graduation .”

"I wish you success." Jacqueline said sincerely.

"I know." Pansy straddled her suitcase and hugged Jacqueline tightly, "Speaking of graduation, there is no need for you to attend today's dinner, right? You skipped a whole school year class."

"Yeah," Jacqueline took a deep breath, looked at her dormitory again, and straightened the collar of her magic robe, "but Miss Granger told me that she'd better be at today's dinner party." See me, otherwise..."

Jacqueline shrugged, "Her good friend, Mr. Harry Potter, just killed Voldemort."

Pansy and Jacqueline laughed, "So, when are you going to propose?"

Jacqueline was startled by Pansy's words, and stood there, unable to answer.

"Don't tell me you haven't thought about it yet."

Jacqueline bit her lower lip, and she shook her head, "I haven't really thought about it, but isn't it understandable? I was a little busy a while ago, and my life was still in danger, but I don't have much time to think about it." thing."

"Then you'd better hurry up," Pansy said, "or your bridesmaids may have to be replaced."

Jacqueline shook her finger, "No matter where you are in the world, Pansy. You'd better come to my wedding. After all, my girlfriend's good friend killed Voldemort."

They both laughed again.

When Jacqueline and Pansy entered the hall, they were a little surprised to find that the hall was decorated differently than usual.Kind of like the black trim they had in honor of Cedric in fourth grade.

Jacqueline and Pansy glanced at each other, and they both understood that this time it was not to pay tribute to a special person, but to remember all those who died fighting against Voldemort.

The headmaster's seat in the center of the professor's chair was vacant, and Professor McGonagall was still sitting in the seat belonging to her vice-headmaster.

Jacqueline and Pansy walked towards the long Slytherin table, where they sat at the end, wondering quietly who the headmaster's seat was reserved for.

Jacqueline looked towards the Gryffindor table, from where she easily found Hermione, as she had often done in the past few years.Hermione smiled at her as if they had just had a normal school year, except, a lot of people died.

Looking at Hermione's determined gaze, Jacqueline suddenly felt as if butterflies were flying in her stomach. She had a feeling that maybe that seat was for Professor Snape, but... just, maybe...

All the students in the auditorium were quietly guessing, and none of them had an answer.Jacqueline looked at Hermione motionless, and Hermione had turned her head at this moment, staring closely at Professor McGonagall.Jacqueline could only see Hermione's profile, so resolute and beautiful.

Professor McGonagall tapped his glass with a spoon, and the auditorium fell silent.Professor McGonagall stood up, looked around, and said, "Another school year is over."

Professor McGonagall stopped, her eyes swept across the four long tables.

"I have a lot to say to you tonight," said Professor McGonagall, "but first, we must understand that we have lost many good people."

The students at the four long tables were silent, maybe their minds printed one name after another, while Jacqueline sat there, thinking about Uncle Rufus.

"They should have sat with us and enjoyed the banquet with us. Some of them, you know, they are your classmates, your friends, and some of them, maybe you don't even know they exist. But we all understand what they gave their lives for. I want everyone to stand up and raise a glass to those who died fighting Lord Voldemort."

Everyone did this, everyone in the hall stood up, and the benches creaked.They raised their goblets and whispered about their friends and relatives.

Many had tears running down their faces, they all bit their lips, and many bowed their heads as they sat down again.

"Resisting Voldemort and defending Hogwarts, this is a victory. It does not belong to a single school, this victory belongs to the entire Hogwarts." Professor McGonagall continued, "Belongs to all those who dare to stand up , all creatures that resist. Among them," Professor McGonagall looked at Hagrid and nodded slightly to him. Hagrid held a large handkerchief and wiped his nose loudly. "There are half-blood giants, and there are horsemen. , and more importantly, there is a group of creatures that have been ignored by us wizards."

Jacqueline looked up at Hermione.

"They prepare our food, iron our clothes, tidy our room, and in winter, make our beds warm. That's right," Professor McGonagall looked at the long Slytherin table, where the students were all lying down. Discussing in a low voice, "I'm talking about house elves."

Harry and Ron sat beside Hermione, their mouths both gaping in surprise.Hermione glanced at Jacqueline proudly. Jacqueline sat on the seat and applauded her gently. Hermione looked at Professor McGonagall even more proudly.

"They have served us diligently since the founding of Hogwarts, but we have never looked at them. They fought with us on the day the castle was invaded. Tonight, I am very fortunate to have them Please come out. I want to thank them."

With a wave of Professor McGonagall's hand, the familiar door of the room where every freshman stayed before waiting for sorting opened.Kreacher, with a locket on his chest, walked in the front.The other elves stood there in bewilderment.

Professor McGonagall began to applaud, and then Hermione stood up, followed by Jacqueline.After that came Harry and Ron, followed by the entire Hufflepuff table, the Gryffindor table, and the Ravenclaw table, and finally, all the Slytherin students stood. up.

Those house-elves probably had never experienced such a scene in their life. They kept bowing, and one by one, they staggered towards the teachers' bench.

When all the house-elves gathered at the left side of the auditorium, where they were specially reserved, Professor McGonagall pressed down with both hands to signal for all the students to be quiet.

"Fred, Tonks, Lupine, Colin..." As Professor McGonagall slowly and heavily pronounced one name after another, many people began to sob slowly. "These heroes who died fighting against Voldemort are worthy of our memory." Professor McGonagall continued, "However, there is also a hero from Slytherin. Although his name does not appear in the "Daily Prophet", but It is still worth remembering in our hearts forever.”

Jacqueline stared at Hermione, who looked back at her, and nodded emphatically.

"Including me, most of us once misunderstood him. He used to be a member of the Death Eaters, but in the end," Professor McGonagall looked at Harry, "he gave his life for love. Yes, I mean, our former Headmaster, Severus Snape."

Professor McGonagall turned to the vacant Headmaster's seat and raised his glass again, almost everyone in the hall did as well.They were chanting Severus' name, and even though some of them had never liked his classes, they drank to him anyway.

"Harry Potter, Ron Weasley, Hermione Granger. The three of them, as we all know, come from my own Gryffindor house. Their stories, I think each of you know very well I don't need to say more. But there is one person..." Professor McGonagall said, her eyes resting on Jacqueline.Jacqueline's ears turned red, and she swept over to Hermione, who this time quietly applauded her.

"On the way to kill Voldemort, she helped Potter and the others. And we all witnessed who seriously injured Voldemort that day. Jacqueline Graham," Professor McGonagall pointed to Lytherin's long table, "A Slytherin, please stand up."

Jacqueline touched her nose, she scratched her head again, her gaze was aimed at the door of the hall, if she slipped away at this time... Although she was sure, almost everyone who knew her in the auditorium was staring at her She, but she still wants to slip...

Pansy didn't give her this chance, she pulled Jacqueline, Jacqueline had to stand up shyly, her face was blushing, and her left hand was tightly holding onto her right arm.In fact, it's really not a big deal, and it really doesn't need to be so hyped...

"Jacqueline Graham, in the face of Voldemort, you have shown resourcefulness and bravery that are rare among many people. For this, I commend you." Professor McGonagall raised his glass for the third time, Hermione and Slytherin House The people who stood up first, they said Jacqueline's name and toasted her.

Jacqueline's whole face was hot, and she whispered a thank you.Through the standing crowd, Jacqueline looked at the teacher's seat, and Yuna nodded slightly to her, raising the wine glass in her hand.

After the students in the hall sat down again, Professor McGonagall continued, "The reason why Hogwarts is divided into four houses is not simply to separate you and be hostile to each other. The reason for this is I hope you can become a better person. Please always remember what Principal Dumbledore said, 'We are strong when we are united, and weak when we are divided.' We work together to drive away the darkness, but There are many more difficulties ahead of us. Please always remember those who gave their lives for freedom, independence and equality."

The castle was empty again, and Hogwarts students crowded the train station, waiting for the Hogwarts Express to take them home.As usual, Jacqueline and Pansy once again occupied a private room. Before Jacqueline poured all the candy in her bag onto the seat, the door of their private room opened.Hermione, Ron, Harry, Luna, Ginny and Neville appeared at their door.

Jacqueline stared at them, completely dumbfounded.

"This is the last time we'll take the Hogwarts Express." Hermione walked in as she said, carrying Jacqueline's schoolbag on her lap, and sat next to Jacqueline, "If we It would be weird to have to separate again."

Luna and Ginny followed, and they sat down beside Pansy.And the three boys, they huddled against the door.

Jacqueline swallowed her throat. She looked at Pansy, who was obviously unwilling, and moved her mouth, "Um..."

"You Slytherins have a few good ones," Ron said from his throat, his face almost as red as his hair.

"How many?" Pansy's eyes widened, "Oh, Merlin, Ron Weasley, have you been hanging around for so long, and you haven't grown up in IQ at all?"

Ron blushed, and the atmosphere in the whole box became even weirder.Jacqueline looked at Hermione, her hand was tightly around Jacqueline's arm again.

Jacqueline swallowed, and she held out her hand to Luna, "I'm sorry for treating you like that at Malfoy Manor. I was, I had to..."

"We all saw it," said Luna cheerfully, and she shook Jacqueline's hand. "We all know what you did."

"It's very brave." Hermione hugged Jacqueline's arm tightly, and she looked at Jacqueline tenderly, which made Jacqueline want to kiss her again.

"So what are you going to do this summer?" Ginny asked.

"Lavender gave me her contact information." Ron said a little impatiently, "I think she likes me, what do you think?"

"No, please, don't." Ginny shook her head hastily.

"Weasley, is that on your head really just an ornament?" Pansy asked rhetorically.

Luna started flipping through The Quibbler.

"I think she's cute, though," insisted Ron.

"I don't know how to tell you better," said Hermione, "but she was bitten by Greyback, even though Greyback wasn't in wolf form at the time..."

"One Bill is enough in our family, and Mom wouldn't like her type of girl."

"Well," Ron sighed, "it's a pity, I still like her."

"You just like her kissing you in public," Pansy said curtly, and Ron blushed again, and Harry and Ginny exchanged a quick look before moving away.

The train slowed down slowly as it approached King's Cross Station, and the atmosphere in the private room was still awkward, but this was the first time the few of them sat together in their 6,7 or [-] years at Hogwarts.

After the train came to a complete stop, Luna stood up, hugged everyone in the carriage, and walked out of the carriage.Harry, Ron and Ginny followed behind Luna.Pansy stood up with her schoolbag in her hand. She hugged Jacqueline, and then looked at Hermione strangely. Hermione extended her hand generously, and Pansy shook her hand reluctantly. .

In the end only Jacqueline and Hermione were left in the carriage.Jacqueline lifted her schoolbag, she opened the door, looked at Hermione, "please."

They walked all the way to the gate of the train station, and James' eye-catching, half golden, half green car was parked at the gate, attracting many people's attention.

Jacqueline looked at her father with a smiling face, and then at Hermione, "I really want to go home with Apparation right now."

Hermione laughed, and then she took Jacqueline's hand and walked towards James.

"You want to go home with me?" When Jacqueline got into the passenger seat, she looked curiously at Hermione in the back seat.

"My parents are still at the castle, Jacqueline." Hermione laughed. "I'm going to pick them up."

"Then let's go home." James stepped on the ground, and the car drove away amidst the sound of a 'booming' motor.
