if he does, it would be as a spy - given that Durmstrang is such a 
hotbed of Dark Arts. So he might use his former relationship with 
Hermione to get to Harry (as a bad guy), or (more likely, IMO) he 
might spy on the bad guys for the good guys (perhaps taking Snape's 
presumed] old job.)

AUSSIE NOW:
Sorry. Becca came up with some good points I wanted to add into 
boymin's post.

LV hid his Horcruxes around places meaningful in his past, and he 
went to Europe. Chances are, Krum may help discover a hidden Horcrux 
in Bulgaria or some place.

Aussie:
Voldy's goal for Hogwarts is the same as Slytherins - no Muggles 
taught there. So if You-Know-Poo takes over the school, the Creevey 
brothers will be targets that shoot back.
They will return to Hogwarts easier than others since their muggle 
parents would not be so aware of the dangers. Being DA members, they 
may lead the charge against attackers.

Charlie Weasley. He really hasn't gotten his day in the sun, and I 
sure hope that he does!

Aussie:
Charlie was asked to be recruiting foreign Wizards. (I was wondering 
how JKR would bring some aussies into canon - WOMBATS Rule!) I would 
also like to see a flying armada with Norbert carrying Hagrid into 
battle.
aussie (well, I can dream, can't I?)
