My newest Harry Potter theory

[eleneariel]

So there are only three ways Harry Potter can end this July. 

1. Harry kills Voldemort and in the process, dies. This is the only real way the story can end satisfactorily, much as I hate the thought. Pure epic tragedy.

2. Harry kills Voldemort and lives. Yeah, and what? Lives happily ever after? Becomes the Dark Arts teacher? Marries Ginny and has 16 kids? Riiiight. The only way this would work is if he selflessly renounced all worldly pleasures and spent the rest of his solitary life fighting evil.

3. Harry kills Voldemort and in the process becomes the new Dark Lord. Dum-dum-de-dum: Meet Harry Pottermort! And thus a new series is born, solving the problem of what the heck J. K. Rowling is going to write next.

I can just see it now. We only thought the Harry Potter mania would be over. Now it can continue another good ten years, with some other hapless young wizard or witch caught up in world-impacting circumstances and fighting a nearly invincible evil.

I really can't wait to find out.

I was only surprised by the idea, not by the fact my sister was clever. I wish I'd thought of it. :-P
