More Harry sketches-- SPOILER ALERT!

SPOILER ALERT!  If you have not seen the movies nor read the books, and I recommend that you do, consider whether or not you should view these sketches.  At the very least, if you are not familiar with the story line, best NOT read the text on this entry!



**************************
Lord Voldemort has discovered Narcissa's lie -- he has been betrayed!  And is he EVER pissed!

I really, really like the next sketch.  I broke one of my "rules" for this series, though.  I added color.  It's perhaps a bit similar to the little red jacket in "Schindler's List" (though not as exalted a work, of course!).  This color was needed, in my opinion.

Voldemort and his army have marched in triumph to the Hogwarts grounds, and brought Harry's body to be viewed by the fighters there.  It's his proof of victory, and meant to dishearten his adversaries.  Voldemort calls for them to join him.

Neville Longbottom steps forward, much to his friends' dismay, lets Voldemort think he's defecting to him, then states that he wants to say something.
"Yeah, we lost Harry tonight, but he's still with us, in here."  Neville gestures to his heart.
"So's Fred, Remus, Tonks -- all of them.  They didn't die in vain!"  He turns to Voldemort. "But you will!"
Voldemort begins to chuckle at this...  but Neville continues.
"Because you're wrong!  Harry's heart did beat for us -- for ALL of us!
AND IT'S NOT OVER!"

Neville the timid, goof-up Gryffindor has just defied the most powerful, most vindictive dark wizard of all time, to give a brave speech to hearten his comrades.  

Neville, you're a true, bad-ass Gryffindor!
