Chapter 27 – The Lightening-Struck Tower



When they return to Hogsmeade Dumbledore tells Harry that he needs Snape, but before Harry can do anything Madam Rosmerta comes and tells them of the Dark Mark that hovers over the Astronomy tower. Suddenly Dumbledore gains strength and he and Harry hurries on Madam Rosmerta's brooms. When they reach the tower Dumbledore tells Harry to go and fetch Snape, but then they hear running footsteps on the other side of the door. As the intruder yells ‘Expellarmus’ Harry is frozen: Dumbledore had stunned Harry rather than defending himself. The intruder is Draco Malfoy. Dumbledore tells Malfoy that he is no killer and try to persuade Malfoy to come to the good side, but Malfoy insist that he is on the winning side, he can kill and he's afraid; there are Death Eaters in the castle. Malfoy had fixed the broken Vanishing Cabinet and Borgin had created a portal between it and the one that exist in his shop. Malfoy never get the nerve to kill the headmaster, not even when other Death Eaters appear. Finally Severus Snape turns up, Dumbledore pleads. Snape walks over to the old wizard, he gaze at him with revulsion and hatred in every line of his face and kills Dumbledore.
