For Vassilissa -- Part 1 gehayi April 22 2007, 16:44:11 UTC

Recipient: vassilissa
Prompt: Hagrid-Sue saves the day.
Word count: 2,076
Rating: Gen. This is crackfic. You have been warned.

The final battle with Voldemort and his troops had commenced in a cemetery in Ipswich which resembled the Roman Coliseum, and Harry and his friends were getting the worst of it. All the spells in the world weren't going keep the werewolves, vampires, Inferi and Dementors at bay for very long. And once the Dark Creatures had beaten Harry, Ron and Hermione to a pulp, the Death Eaters--who were standing off in one corner of the battlefield, making bets on just how long they would survive--would slaughter first them and then the other pathetically outnumbered remnants of the Order and Dumbledore's Army. The situation was beyond hopeless.

"We'll be lucky if there's anything left of us to kill!" Ron moaned ( ... )

Triumphant quasi-classical music, celebrating love, magic, victory and all things sparkly, burst from nowhere in particular. Pale pink smoke billowed dramatically around Hagrid like a gauzy but tasteful dressing screen. The brilliance of the shaft of sunlight intensified. A flock of swans flew overhead and, for a moment, formed a living arch above the smoke ( ... )

Rubea nodded. Picking up a handful of dust, she blew upon it. Instantly, a flock of innumerable mosquitoes began attacking the vampires, sucking out every drop of blood in their bodies. and Next, she waved her hand; abruptly, the female werewolves were in heat, and most of the males were far more interested in sex than they were in devouring the three teenagers in front of them. Those like Greyback, whose interests lay more in biting, rending and killing, suddenly found their claws clipped and their fangs suffering from a massive case of tooth decay. A whispered command, and most of the Death Eaters collapsed from the poisonous stings of Blast-Ended Skrewts. Those who managed to evade the crustaceans were in no better shape; they fled the field, pursued by maddened hippogriffs. A dragon--"A Norwegian Ridgeback," Harry heard Hermione murmur--flew overhead, incinerating Inferi with pinpoint accuracy ( ... )

Harry looked up, and saw a black dog. A three-headed black dog. It towered over the battlefield, all three of its heads large enough to block the sun from view. It was gazing down at the Dementors, its teeth bared and its eyes glowing redly ( ... )

Absolutely brilliant! Some vicious attacks (sorely needed) on Rowling's recent messes. I love the way he can't remember Sirius' name, and that he stands there and thinks how sorry he is for himself when everyone else is in trouble.

I love the idea of Voldemort picking up his skirts and legging it.

*dying laughing*

Re: For Vassilissa -- Conclusion gehayi April 22 2007, 17:57:57 UTC

Thanks! (Well, forgetting Sirius and mid-crisis brooding did seem to fit HBP canon extremely well... *looks innocent*)

And yes, for once Voldemort did something halfway intelligent. Pity it didn't work.

Re: For Vassilissa -- Conclusion monifieth April 22 2007, 17:34:29 UTC

That's hilarious! I couldn't stop giggling!

Re: For Vassilissa -- Conclusion gehayi April 22 2007, 17:53:41 UTC

Thanks! I really loved doing it; it was fun!

Re: For Vassilissa -- Conclusion bethbethbeth April 22 2007, 18:21:02 UTC

Oh, this is excellent! I don't suppose you've actually seen the manuscript for the seventh book, have you? *g*

Re: For Vassilissa -- Conclusion gehayi April 22 2007, 18:54:23 UTC

Thank you! Glad you liked it!

Darn! How could you tell? Don't tell anyone--the whole world has been sworn to secrecy, you know!

Re: For Vassilissa -- Conclusion merrycontrary April 22 2007, 20:39:46 UTC

BWAHAHAHA! Brilliant! And I am really sort of in love with Fluffy and the Dementors back story.

Re: For Vassilissa -- Conclusion gehayi April 23 2007, 02:51:15 UTC

Explains so MUCH, doesn't it?

And thank you so much!

Thank you! I enjoyed writing that immensely! I don't write silly things nearly enough.

Re: For Vassilissa -- Conclusion lilacsigil April 23 2007, 10:17:20 UTC

That's...certainly a power that the Dark Lord knew not, and a rather pleasing explanation for the Dementors to boot! Once we got to the multi-coloured sparkling rainbows eyes, I somehow knew that everything would be all right for Our Heroes...

Re: For Vassilissa -- Conclusion gehayi April 23 2007, 13:18:05 UTC

Oh, there had to be multi-coloured sparkling rainbow eyes. I think it's a rule with Sues.
