Battle of Hogwarts

"The thing is, it helps when people stand up to them; it gives everyone hope. I used to notice that when you did it, Harry."

— Neville discussing the resistance to the Carrows at Hogwarts

On 2 May 1998, Neville enthusiastically greeted Harry, Hermione, and Ron, and led them from the Hog's Head into the Room of Requirement. While in the tunnel, he explained to the trio the nature of his injuries and the reign of the Carrows at Hogwarts. He also informed the trio that the D.A. had been reinstated and was currently resisting the new regime. Believing that their return meant the overthrow of the Death Eater professors, Neville signalled the rest of the D.A. to return to Hogwarts.[53] As students returned, along with the Order of the Phoenix, Voldemort and his Death Eater army approached, laying siege to the school in the hopes of capturing Harry Potter.

During the first round of battle, Neville used various plants to attack Death Eaters and helped transport the injured and dead when a temporary cease-fire was called. He briefly spoke to Harry, who told him that it was a top priority to kill Voldemort's snake and Horcrux, Nagini.[55] When the Death Eaters approached with a "dead" Harry, Neville stood up in defiance of Voldemort. He was subsequently forced to wear the Sorting Hat as it burned because he refused to join Voldemort. Fortunately, due to Harry's sacrifice, Neville was able to shrug off the Full Body-Bind Curse with relative ease.

Because of his tremendous bravery shown on the battlefield, Neville was able to pull the Sword of Gryffindor from the burning hat, in the process proving himself a true Gryffindor, something that was doubted constantly throughout his academic career due to his apparently weak-willed, shy, and bumbling nature. 
In a single stroke, he carried out Harry's final order, slaying Nagini, destroying Voldemort's last remaining Horcrux.









After the war, Neville was seen sitting beside Luna and feeling proud of himself.
