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.

like JKR left possible since she never said he won't.



Tina:

 Hi, I just joined and I would just like to say that although your 
theory is intriguing, and as much as I agree that Neville will 
definately come into his own, you are forgetting the final part of 
the prophesy: That the Dark Lord will mark the one who is the most 
threat to him as his equal. Even DD said to Harry that there is no 
doubt that it is he, Harry, who has the power to defeat Voldemort. 

 But I do like the Neville theory, and I think he will definately be 
a power in his own right.
