The endgame of the entire Harry Potter series was of course the fight between the Chosen One and the Dark Lord. However, there was another rival that Harry butted heads with even more so than Voldemort, even if it was generally on a much smaller scale.

Throughout their time at Hogwarts, Draco Malfoy did his best to make Potter’s life a living hell, and as he grew older, he cemented his place as a Death Eater along with his father. Both were on the side of Voldemort, even if Draco had conflicted feelings about it to say the very least.

During Harry, Ron, and Hermione’s hunt for the seven Horcruxes, they, Malfoy, and two of his grunts (differing depending on whether you’re watching the movie or reading the book) were caught in a blaze of Fiendfyre. Though the golden trio looked to escape on broomsticks, Draco and Goyle were stranded with no escape from inevitable death.

In spite of everything that had happened between them, the Boy Who Lived simply couldn’t fly away from someone in danger, so he and Ron came back around and took Malfoy and Goyle to safety with them.
