Well, i don't think I can beat THAT ending, which was truly 
disappointing! However I present an ending which takes JKR's 
propensity for crazy twists much, much too far...

Harry hugged Ron and Hermione, glad that they'd finally defeated the 
evil Lord Voldemort. 'I'm glad you weren't REALLY killed in our fifth 
year, Ron,' said Harry, 'and that you managed to learn how to be an 
Animagus and disguise yourself as an owl for these last two years, 
revealing yourself only to Draco Malfoy who helped you start your 
secret romance with Hermione which you made her forget about with a 
well placed Memory Charm.' Ron chuckled. 'Well, it wasn't easy,' he 
said. Suddenly Dumbledore, Snape and McGonagall rushed up to the 
three of them. 'Harry, watch out!' Dumbledore cried, and fired a bolt 
of magic at Ron, which undid the Polyjuice Potion 'Ron' had been 
taking for the last seven years to reveal him as none other than Lord 
Voldemort himself! 'Gasp!' cried Harry. 'That's right,' said 
Voldemort, 'I'm not really Ron! It is I, Voldemort! But now, Harry, 
time for another surprise...' Voldemort suddenly changed into James 
Potter right before Harry's eyes. 'Ha ha ha!' said James. 'I faked my 
death sixteen years ago in order to be evil without anyone knowing 
about it! And all this time you thought it was the REAL Tom 
Riddle!' 'Well,' said Hermione, 'that was an unexpected twist!' Harry 
laughed. 'It certainly was, Hermione,' he said, 'It certainly was.' 
And he pulled her into his arms and kissed her.

Ugh. I appreciate twists as much as the next person but I think it 
can be taken too far!
