If it follows the pattern of his parents it will be Neville. Neville would be the Wormtail of the group. Him or Colin . I believe he is loyal to Harry but he is also a little clumsy too. Who knows?

Neville is too loyal to betray Harry, I mean he insisted on going with him to the ministry when he didn't have to. he might accidentally though...but that would be a fatal blow to his confidence, which has been coming along very nicely, so I hope not.

It would be funny if it was Colin, because he never gave him enough attention so he's bitter. But I really doubt it.

Colin is the guy everybody's forgotten about. That would be some kind of twist if JKR made him betray Harry. or it could just be him that does magic. that would suck Sad

I haven't heard the rumor, but "fails" does not necessarily equal "betray."

At the least, it implies that someone Harry was counting on did not come through.

It could be something as simple as Harry asking one of his friends to cause a diversion so that he might take Voldemort by surprise, only to have that friend lose his or her nerve, resulting in Voldemort being fully prepared when Harry arrives.

Lots of possibilities. I'll just throw Hagrid's name out there...obviously nobody has better intentions when it comes to Harry, but he's...easily distracted by certain things.

That is pretty logical.. But even though Hagrid is easily destracted, do you really see him doing something stupid at a time like that?

I think it is going to be Hedwig. Harry needs to get an urgent message sent but, Hedwig sees food and decides to snack and Harry's leg gets eaten by a gang of ants and loses a leg.


Back to reality:

Where did this rumor surface. I think if anyone is going to fail Harry it would be Hermione. She is the brains of the group but, is not the bravest of people. So she might fail a task that doesn't involve wittiness!

The Hagrid idea is a thought. But, he gets distracted when either drunk or tricked by a friend. I don't think he would be stupid enough to get drunk at a time like this or be tricked by an enemy. You never know.

The Hermione idea is pretty intresting. She's the brains of the bunch but I think she'll be tourtered into giving out really valuable info... But she could also be tortured into insanity, like the Longbottoms.

What would Colin have to do with anything? I don't think he is going to fight alongside Harry.

I agree... Colin annoyed the crap out of Harry most of the time..

But what about Luna? She iis really air headed and stuff...

The trio knows that she is lacking in the area of anything intelligent. So i don't think they would use her for anything very important. If it is going to be anyone it going to be someone who is involved in Harry's plans and has a lacking flaw that is consistent with messing up or is not brave enough to complete a task.

hermione not brave? luna not intelligent? think again! they are gryffindor and ravenclaw respectively, and they are there for a reason.

That is a good point... She may be smart... But book smarts and common sens are two totally different things.

She is really smart right when she believe the crap her dad writes. Everone knows her dad is loony. Just because they were placed in a house doesn't mean they are eveything that house defines to the fullest. Look at Wormtail he betrayed his friends and was the cause of James and Lily's death. What house was he in again? Why do people laugh at Luna a lot and treat her different. When does Hermione show bravery in death type situations more than Harry or Ron? She admits it herself that she isn't the greatest wizard just because she can read books.

But she's not afraid to break the rules when they need to be, she's not afraid to say Voldemort, she's not too afraid to accompany harry on his horcrux hunt. We haven't seen Luna in a class, so its hard to judge her smarts. But intelligence is THE principle of Ravenclaw, so she's got to be. She has the sense not to freak out when she's in a tight spot.

I still think she can be one to fail. IDC if you don't agree. Luna has never been potrayed as smart. A house is a house. Bad people or cowards aren't always in Slytherin. As a lot of people have turned there back on Harry and they are from all houses including his own.
