I would also like to mention that, for those who may have been worried, I will continue this story even after Deathly Hallows has been released. I’d also like to mention that I will not change the story to fit what happens in DH… I’ve outlined most all of the upcoming chapters anyway, so altering it now wouldn’t really fit. Finally, I will also not be adding or even hinting at possible DH plot details once the book has been released… so don’t worry, no one will be spoiled reading my story if they haven’t yet read DH. Thanks once again to everyone who has read and reviewed and again to my beta, Priya. Enjoy!

As for this chapter, there are a few allusions to the other six books that you all should pick up on rather quickly. As you will see, this chapter kind of ties the first six books to my story which I thought kind of fitting.

As I said earlier, and I’ll say this at the beginning of all chapters after this one: You will NOT be spoiled reading my story and I will not be changing anything I have planned in order to fit any plot twist in Deathly Hallows. Also, once again, I’d like to thank my beta, Priya, for editing this story for me. You’re the greatest – luv ya, Priya! Enjoy, everyone!

First off, I’d like to say that I hope everyone enjoyed Deathly Hallows! I completely loved it and thought it was the best out of the seven, but that’s just my opinion. However, nothing that happened in DH is incorporated into this story: not the new spells, not the plot, nothing. As always, you will NOT have DH spoiled by reading my story. Secondly, I’d like to apologize for taking so long with this update. My beta, who is one of the best, was out of town for a while so it took a while to get this chapter edited. That did, however, give me the chance to get some writing done, and you’ll all be happy to know that I’m already halfway through Chapter 26! Anyway, I’d like to thank everyone who has read and reviewed so far – I’m really glad you’re enjoying. I would also like to thank my aforementioned beta, Priya, who has helped me out tremendously! I defiantly could not do it without her. Enjoy!
