Oh, I don't know, I see Molly as a bit scatter brained when parting with her
children.  She was sending what, four off to Hogwarts that year? With only
one left in the nest?  Picture the mayhem as they were packing up to leave
that very morning.  Quite chaotic.

Ah, that is where I think Hagrid left a little too early and rode around a
while before realizing, oops, time to meet Dumbledore. :)  Trust me, I've
got an explanation for everything.  Not always a very good explanation, but
an explanation nonetheless. :)

Sphause predicts:

> 1. Dumbledore will die (Fairly Obvious)

Probably.

> 2. Harry, Ron and Hermione will not die (Duh!)

Not necessarily.  I actually find it quite easy to believe that either Ron
or Harry will die.  Hermione I doubt would though, just doesn't fit in
anywhere.  Yet.  Mind you, I want them all alive, though.  There's just that
"sacrifice" theme running continuously through the books.  Of course, that
could lead into the Harry dies but isn't dead theory. :)  I like that one.

> 3. Snape will be a hero

Probably.  Of course, he has been already, just not very, I don't know,
likeable.  I like him, though, just . . .well . . . can't put my finger on
it.

> 4. Snape will give his life to save Harry's

Probably again.  Either this or he will double cross Dumbledore.  Hey, it's
always possible.

> 5. If Snape does not die, he will become the headmaster.

No, can't put him ahead of McGonagall.

> 6. If Snape does dies, McGonagall will become the headmaster.

I think she will be headmistress if Dumbledore does indeed die.  Or retire
or something.  Not Snape.

> 7. Voldemort will die at Harry's hand never to return.

Either that or lose all magical powers which would be for him worse than
death.  Though I won't be happy unless he is truly one hundred percent dead.
I like the theory, mentioned above, that Harry will face Voldemort,
Voldemort will kill him and die in the process because of the scar and it's
connection to him.  So Harry will die but he won't be really dead.  He
won't.  Really.  I SAID HE WON'T!!!!!!!!!!  Oh, sorry for yelling.

> 8. Ron and Hermione will be an item.

Very likely, as long as they're both alive. :)

Now, I really must send this and go to bed.  I must.
