I also thought that one of the Red Hairs was going to die as well.
To be honest though, as soon as I saw Percy come back, I thought he
was doomed.  As much as people didn't like him previously (myself
included), I thought that once he came back, admitted he was wrong
and that he had been trying to get out for awhile, he was surely
going to die sacrificing himself for one of his family members, in
particular, his father.

I think that Rowling likes to have most of the people in the
Potterverse innately good, the exceptions being Voldemort,
Bellatrix, and their ilk.  She even had Scrimegour (don't think
thats spelled correctly) be redeemed for his poor treatment of Harry
with him dying and being tortured trying to portect Harry.  I
thought that, giving the possiblity of redemption for Percy, he was
goner.

Nate, who now after reading the 7th book, is trying to figure out
how he ever thought that snape could be a bad guy
