Bailey Sophia POV

Bailey Sophia works tirelessly healing patients in a bustling magical clinic. Alex observes her and decides it's time to intervene.

"Bailey, you need to take a break. You've been at this non-stop," Alex suggests, concerned for Bailey's well-being.

Bailey, smiling, responds, "I can't help it, Alex. There are so many people in need of healing."

Concern deepening, Alex continues, "I get that, but you might be attracting some unwanted attention."

Bailey, now confused, asks, "What do you mean?"

Alex, speaking in a hushed tone, explains, "Death Eaters. They could be watching. Your magic is powerful, and they might want to use it for their dark purposes."

Bailey's expression shifts from confusion to shock.

"Death Eaters? Here?" she questions, slowly grasping the gravity of the situation.

"We can't be too careful. Let's take a break and figure out what to do next," Alex suggests.

Voldemort POV

Voldemort, seething with anger after discovering Bailey Sophia's instant healing magic, unleashes his wrath upon the surroundings, destroying buildings with his dark magic. As the chaos settles, he summons his loyal Death Eaters.

"Walden McNair suggests, 'We should kill her. Eliminate the threat before it grows,' with a vicious tone.

Evan Rosier, smirking, proposes, 'No need for a quick death. Let's curse her with the Cruciatus Curse. Make her suffer for crossing us.'

Malfoy suggests, 'Wait! Killing her would be a waste. We can use her. Her magic could save us valuable resources, like Skele-Gro. We could kidnap her and make her heal our wounded.'

Voldemort, considering the suggestions, nods in agreement, 'Malfoy has a point. We'll capture her. Her magic will serve our cause. Prepare for her abduction.'"

Professor POV

Professor Dumbledore and the other professors gather, their expressions darkening as they discuss Bailey Sophia's extraordinary magical performance.

"Dumbledore speaks gravely, 'It seems Bailey Sophia has drawn attention, the kind we feared. Voldemort may target her.'"

The professors exchange worried glances, aware of the dangers that come with being on the Dark Lord's radar. Lily Evans, the brightest witch in Hogwarts, had a predecessor in Bailey Sophia.

"McGonagall recalls, 'Wasn't Bailey Sophia one of our former students? If I remember correctly, she was the brightest witch in her year.'"

"Slughorn nods, 'Indeed, Minerva. Bailey was not only exceptionally talented but also one of my favorite students. She had a remarkable gift for magic.'"

The conversation takes a turn as they discuss the increasing tension between Muggleborns and Purebloods.

"Dumbledore sighs, 'We mustn't blame Muggleborns. Their competence threatens the status quo of some Purebloods who, in their arrogance, believe blood status guarantees strength.'"

"Flitwick nods, 'If it weren't for the biased laws, Muggleborns would undoubtedly hold higher positions in the Ministry.'"

As they ponder the situation, Professor McGonagall raises a crucial point.

"McGonagall inquires, 'What about Bailey Sophia? Shouldn't we reach out to her?'"

"Dumbledore, his eyes twinkling, agrees, 'An excellent idea, Minerva. We shall invite Bailey back to Hogwarts. Perhaps she can assist Madam Pomfrey and join the Order of the Phoenix. Her skills may prove invaluable.'"

The professors, united in their decision, begin making plans to contact Bailey and ensure her safety in the tumultuous times that lie ahead.

SYSTEM POV

THE SCREEN ON SKY SUDDENLY BECOME BLACK AND A NEW VIDEO EMERGED.

The night was cold and eerie as Professor Dumbledore and Harry Potter Apparated back to Hogwarts after their perilous journey to retrieve one of Voldemort's Horcruxes. As they arrived on the Astronomy Tower, a chilling sight greeted them—the Dark Mark hovered ominously in the sky.

Dumbledore's eyes widened, and a sense of foreboding washed over him. "Something is amiss," he whispered to Harry.

Harry, too, felt the tension in the air as they hurried towards the castle. The echoes of distant screams reached their ears, and the flickering green light of the Dark Mark cast an eerie glow on the grounds below.

As they ascended the stairs to the tower, Dumbledore's steps became more labored, the strain of their previous adventure evident. The door creaked open, revealing a scene of chaos. Death Eaters roamed the tower, casting curses and hexes in every direction.

Dumbledore's grip on Harry's arm tightened. "We must proceed with caution," he advised, his voice strained.

The duo advanced silently, hidden in the shadows, as they witnessed the unfolding chaos below. It became clear that the Death Eaters were searching for something—or someone. Suddenly, Dumbledore use Stunner curse to harry and he can't move because of magic binding his body.

Harry, under his Invisibility Cloak, watched as Dumbledore ascended the stairs alone. The old wizard moved with a sense of purpose, his gaze steady despite the chaos around him.

Suddenly, Draco Malfoy emerged from the shadows, his features tense and determined. With a flick of his wand, he disarmed Dumbledore, who stood defenseless against the young Slytherin.

Dumbledore, though disarmed, faced Malfoy with a calm demeanor, the air crackled with tension. 

Malfoy hesitated, conflicted by the task at hand. "I... I can't do it," he confessed, trembling.

Dumbledore, sensing the internal struggle in Malfoy, spoke softly, "Draco, it is never too late to make the right choice. I can help you."

Just as Malfoy began lowering his wand, Severus Snape suddenly appeared, witnessing Malfoy lowering his wand. Without further ado, Snape swiftly raised his wand with a cold expression, stepped forward. Dumbledore, with a pleading look, uttered, "Severus, please."

With a flick of his wand, Snape cast the Killing Curse, and green light engulfed Dumbledore. The old wizard crumpled to the floor, his hand still reaching out towards an invisible Harry.

As the magic that bound Harry was released, he witnessed the tragic scene unfold before him, Dumbledore's body fell from the top of the tower, a symbol of the sacrifice he had made.

Snape, in a swift motion, grabbed Malfoy and the other Death Eaters, and they hurriedly made their escape from Hogwarts. Harry, hidden beneath the Invisibility Cloak, watched the retreating figures disappear into the darkness.

As Dumbledore's lifeless form lay on the ground, Harry's grief transformed into a burning rage. He threw off the Invisibility Cloak and, without a second thought, began casting curses at the Death Eaters who remained on the tower.

"Coward!" Harry shouted, his voice filled with anger. "Come back and face me!"

His curses echoed through the night, but the Death Eaters, including Snape, were already retreating from the castle.

Frustrated and fueled by his emotions, Harry continued to unleash spells, determined to make someone pay for Dumbledore's death. Amidst his barrage of curses, he shouted at Snape, challenging him to fight back.

Snape, however, did not respond to Harry's taunts. Instead, he turned to face him with an angry glare. "Do not use that curse!" Snape shouted, revealing his identity as the true Half-Blood Prince.

Caught off guard by Snape's revelation, Harry hesitated. The weight of the revelation hung in the air as Snape and the Death Eaters managed to escape, leaving Harry alone on the tower, a mix of disbelief, sadness, and shock etched across his face.
