TBAY: Evil! Ron imagery

There had been some discussion in weeks past regarding a certain 
scene from GoF where Ron and Harry are dueling with fake wands.  One 
was a parrot (Ron) and the other was a fish (Harry).  The parrot 
decapitates the fish.

Some had suggested that this was foreshadowing of a future event 
between Ron and Harry...there was a lot of discussion about events 
pointing to Harry being immortal or "something."

I am currently rereading GoF (it's been out on loan), and I came 
across another small section which seems to run parallel to the idea 
of Ron doing *something* to Harry.

On page 407, Harry and Ron take a few minutes to play a game of 
chess.  Hermione is trying to convince Harry that he should be 
working on the second task...but Ron and Harry just play chess.

"...she sighed, and she sat down to watch their chess match, which 
culminated in an exciting checkmate of Ron's, involving a couple of 
recklessly brave pawns and a very violent bishop."

I see a parallel here between the parrot/fish duel.  Are HRH 
the "recklessly brave pawns"?  Is Voldemort the "violent bishop."  
And Ron is the one to checkmate Harry...does this forebode something 
else?

Just some more food for thought...
