Another idea just struck me, Lily could not bear to "see" her son 
Harry die, so she sacrificed herself to spare him.  LV said she 
didn't have to die.  HMMMM? So what if Harry has the same intense 
amount of love for his friends (his only family in his eyes) that, 
in seeing one of them about to be AK'ed by LV, he does the same 
thing?  LV askes him to join him instead, but Harry refuses and 
sacrifices his life for his friends instead?  Passing the protection 
to someone new, so now LV is no longer protected from it by Harry's 
blood?  Just a thought.

One more thing.  Has anyone notice Kadavra sounds alot like cadaver?
