This is a combination of many popular ideas and theories and rumors about what will happen in the final showdown between Harry Potter and Lord Voldemort. I'll post it bit by bit whenever I have the time. I haven't even finished it as of now. Got most of it in a notebook. Enjoy!

Harry was jostled between students rushing, pouring into the Great Hall. Some were screaming while others appeared to have no idea what was going on, Some, Draco Malfoy included, merely looked smug. "This can't be good." Harry thought, he was among the uninformed.
His thoughts were interupted by the sound of his robes tearing. He whirled around to face Neville Longbottom. "Sorry Harry! I didn't mean to step on your robes! Do you have any idea what is going on?" Harry barely had time to shake his head as McGonagall hustled the stragglers into the Great Hall. The ceiling reflected a sky that was dark and stormy, an unhappy sky.
Professors McGonagall and Vector went around the Hall bolting doors. The clammor of anxious voices in the enclosed room made Harry's ears ring. Fortunately the crowd fell into complete silence when Dumbledore rose to speak.
"I have very grave news, very grave indeed." he said in mournful tones. "Lord Voldemort has gained access to the castle. We believe he has headed into the Chamber of Secrets. Aurors will arrive soon to take hold of the situation. We will keep you informed. Meanwhile you will all stay in the Great Hall. I do not expect you to sleep under such conditions, but to uphold the proprieties..." he waved his hand and the tables moved against the walls and purple sleeping bags appeared on the floor, just as they had four years previously.
Without anymore ado the proffesors filed out of the Hall, bolting the door behind them. Harry felt a hand on his shoulder and turned around. The hand belonged to Hermione and standing behind her was Ron.
Looking at them together he realized he wasn't angry anymore. He had been silly to be upset by the startling news that they were now a couple. Now more than ever they needed to be united.
"Guys, I'm sorry..." he began as they too began to speak. Harry smiled and so did they, an unspoken understanding passed between them.
They sat down, leaning against the wall, and began to discuss Dumbledore's news. "But how did he get in?" said Ron, running fingers through his hair.
"Tuh! Isn't it obvious?" tutted Hermione.
"Care to explain?"
"He couldn't apparate in and if he had forced the gate we would have heard." she replied vaguely.
"How about you stop telling us how he didn't get in and focus on how he did!" said Ron exasperatedly.
"If you're going to take that tone I just might not tell you."
"Hermione!"
"Please Hermione, just tell us." begged Harry.
"All right then. I would imagine Wormtail told him about the passage from the Shreiking Shack to the Whomping Willow"
