True. Well, actually DD shows Harry the prophecy, from his pensieve
(pg. 841). So, I guess, it can be assumed it's accurate. There's still
a record of the prophesy (DD, that smart guy!)
Probono, however, still has a point. If Voldemort has only heard the
first part of the prophesy, is he simply unaware of Neville? Or does
he believe that Neville is weak (like everybody else) and unable of
being the one. After all, shouldn't his defeat be caused by a person
of great power? Which makes me wonder if the idea posted awhile back
(sorry, I don't remember who) that Neville's powers may have been
surpressed either by his parents or maybe Gran? After all, seeing her
son nearly killed might drive her to protect her grandson from the
same fate. And then there's the whole issue of using his father's wand...
Neville has to have more to do with this than we've been seeing so
far. He has too. Wouldn't it be funny if Neville kills Voldemort in
the end? Hrmmmmm..........
Mamibunny now:
That is exactly what I think: Neville, in the end, is the boy who will defeat LV. I think that he was safe behind the appearence of weakness and magic incapacity, while Harry atracted all the attention during the many years they -- the two boys -- were growing up. Just in case, DD put Harry under protection if LV came back too soon -- and DD knew that he would come back someday. Both boys, during eleven years, were safe under charms: Harry at the Dursley´s house/companion, and Neville maybe under a memory or reduced-powers charm (provided by DD). I think it is possible that both boys will be in the last figth against LV -- together -- and Neville will have his abilities completly restored, so he can defeat LV.
This is my theory and I´m reading OotP by now, looking for evidences to support it. I hope Harry doesn't die in this fight -- like JKR left possible since she never said he won't.
Cheers
