“No… NO! Hedwig … Hedwig…”.

She was killed instantly and fell like a rag doll to the bottom of her cage. A cloaked Death Eater flew past Harry and shot spells over his shoulder at Harry and Hagrid. To save himself, Harry screamed “Bombarda!” and the sidecar broke into hundreds of pieces as Harry jumped onto the motorbike clinging to Hagrid’s jacket. She plummeted thousands of feet down to the ground. A wave of grief washed over Harry as he watched with blurry eyes Hedwig’s lifeless body pressed against the bars of the cage slowly fall to the ground.

At the Creevey’s Residence, Arnold Creevey, a small, skinny boy of nine years stared out of his window thinking of how much he would miss his older brothers Colin and Dennis when they went to Hogwarts again this year. He was also really worried about them. All they ever talked about was this dark wizard, Lord Voldemort and how he killed people born to non- magical people like their parents. His eyelids drooped while he was stroking his dog’s head. They flew open as he saw a great metal cage fall to the ground with a clatter in his backyard. He ran out to see a snowy white owl in it. His eyes filled with tears when he saw it was dead. He heard Colin and Dennis talk about pet owls in the wizarding world. This must be one of them.

1. Colin Creevey:

Harry thinks of him as annoying and clingy at first because he’s tailing Harry around, clicking pictures because he’s his fan. But many people forget the fact that he was more than a mere fan, he was a devoted fan. The boy looked up to Harry, not because he was popular at school (remember Harry’s second year when he and Ron flew a freaking car to school??) but because he was the hope of the wizarding world. At the end, he fought at the battle of Hogwarts, where he was underage and restricted to fight but did anyways and so gave his life just so Harry Potter, the only light in the dark, could defeat the Dark Lord. So Dennis and his parents and his friends, the people he loved, could live in peace and joy. So the air could be clear of the pollution Voldy had created, so the person he looked up to could finally have a good life. This fandom clearly forgets Colin Creevey, the boy who fought.

2. The Patil Twins

The Spiderman underwear makes an appearance!

Chapter 27: Felix Knows Best

"They're releasing you..." "Thank Merlin. This spot is not tidy." "...into my custody." >gulp!<

Summary:

Colin has a concussion and a sudden understanding that nearly dying (again) might have its perks. Oliver has a new revelation and a new shadow.

He doesn't know that the shadow has ulterior motives.

But Felix knows.

Dennis is not fuckin' around.

Chapter 26: Don't Fuck With My Brother

(In Which Everyone Fights for Colin and Colin Fights to Stay Awake)

"If anything happens to my brother — if one more thing goes wrong because you are too busy building your case to care — I will bury you."

Summary:

Dennis abandons a case, crosses the Irish Sea by Portkey, and threatens a superior officer.

Oliver paces a waiting room even though he's free to leave.

Neither of them can get to Colin.

Colin, meanwhile, is alone in a cell, going under, deciding whether the fight is worth it.

There's a plan to get him out.

It has Oliver's name on it.
