I personally am against the opinion that Harry will destroy more than two horcuxes in book seven. If i had to place the last on e to be destroyed, i would put the something of Gryffindors because i doubt Harry will recognise Godrics Hollow for what it is, let alone want to destroy it as the place his parents died.
Padfoot313
Nagini is my answer because it is the closest to Voldermort. Vodlermort is not a horcrux, he is the main piece of the soul. Since he keeps Nagini close and the others are hiding, i feel the snake (if it is really a horcrux) to be the last to go.
roonil_wazlib
It has to be Voldemorts body. I mean, I picture him sending the curse that destroys the horcrux at him, then killing him. It just makes sense. A huge dramatic ending. ^.^
NickHilton
Voldemorts body isn't strictly a Horcrux, thats why i have omitted it from my list. I think it is inevitable that he will kill voldemort last, but i also think that the las t HORCRUX to be destroyed will be Godrics Hollow.
abdar
um harry is the last horcrux. for reference to why please check some of my other posts because ive stated it a couple of times biggrin.gif
El Barto
In the end, it is possible that Harry is a horcrux.....POSSIBLE......for now all we can do is ASSUME and SPECULATE.....The whole horcrux thing is the only thing we've got to go on as the explanation between Harry and Voldemort being connected somehow....there might be others....dunno!

I agree that the last one to be destroyed will be Nagini...if the snake is indeed a horcrux.

Nobody had yet proved that. I personally don't like the idea of Harry being a horcrux, nor do I believe it. I also don't believe Godric's Hollow is a horcrux. I mean, it's a village. How can you turn a village into a horcrux? It makes no sense to me. Honestly. Anyways, if you aren't counting Voldy himself, then I say Nagini.

Nagini would be the most difficult to get your hands onto and I can picture that to be a huge, dramatic scene!!! But one question, does Harry even know the curse that neutralizes a horcrux?

no way - that's what Hermione's for, right? Seriously, I think Harry has no idea how to do what he's got to do, he just knows he's got to do it. I think this journey is going to be reeeally difficult for him.

I agree that Nagini will be the last horcrux, if she is one. If she's not and Harry is, or if she is and Harry is (though unlikely, this would mean harry would have to be the something of Griffindor's, which is a stretch), then ok, it'll be Harry. The only way I see Nagini not being the last horcrux destroyed is if the trio splits up to cover more ground b/c LV is growing more powerful and time is short. then maybe some horcruxes will be getting destroyed simultaneously or something (also probably unlikely).

Honestly, I think th book will basically go how we all kind of expect it to go.
SeventhHorcrux
I personally feel like the last Horcrux to be destroyed would be Gryffindor's object. (if there is actually a Horcrux made of one of Gryffindor's objects) I am not sure how a village would be made into a Horcrux, but there must be something else. It seems like it would be nice and dramatic for Harry's last thing to destroy (besides Voldemort himself) to be an object from a founder of Hogwarts that he held in highest regard.
Mrs S Finnegan
well if you thinkabout it logically, the last horcrux will presumably be Voldemort's body. the whole book will lead up to the final battle/confrontation between Harry and Voldemort. i feel that Harry would want to leave his body til last so that he can see that Voldemort is really gone, if you get what i mean! that's if Harry survives to destroy Voldemort ... wink.gif
NickHilton
I think someone said this before in this topic, but Voledmorts body isn't strictly a horcrux. The horcruxes are the divisions of the soul, not the soul its self, which is in Voldemorts body.
putouter
What I'm feeling like is that Harry is the last horcrux. Thats why no-one has permission to kill him because then it will destroy part of voldemort too. So i think that it might end like this.
Harry fights with voldemort, voldemort tells him that harry is a horcrux (maybe accidentally? Cause we know that when Vol tried to kill harry he drained some of him to harry? what do youy think?) So then voldemort starts to drain his soul back so he could kill harry to fulfill the prophecy. Harry feels weakend and calls to his friend(?) to kill him or kills himself. I think that he has ron or hermione helping him. He yells that he has already destroyed all the other horcruxes so killing harry would kill ol voldy eh? I'm not, ofcourse, sure of this so i would love hear your opinions?

Sincerely Putouter
Melanie Louise
I agree that Nagini (if she is a Horcrux) would be the last to be destroyed as Nagini is the closest thing to Lord Voldemort and is always in his care.

About Godrics Hollow - I agree that Godrics Hollow wouldn't be a Horcrux because its a village - but as the same time I believe there is a Horcrux hiding in the house Lily and James lived in in Godrics Hollow. Maybe their graves?

I don't think so. I'm sure Jk has a lot of surprises for us. Could you have expected what happened in book 5 and 6 juste after you read book 4? Could you have expected the death of Dumbledore?
NickHilton
Melanie Louise-I'm pretty sure Harry wouldn't feel too great about destroying his parents graves, so perhaps voldemort preyed on that and made them horcruxes, knowing Harry wouldn't want to destroy them?
joeshmo1985
I'm not sure JKR would put Harry in a situation where he would have to defile the dead's remains. My vote is for Nagini as this is the Horcrux usually the closest to Voldemort(assuming you don't count Voldemort himself as a Horcrux.) I don't believe Harry himself is a Horcrux because then he'd have to die before Voldemort could.

I like that theory, that would put a lot of emotional pressure on Harry.

MOD EDIT : Please read the rules - one-liners are not allowed in the forums.
Krissy15
I am 99.9% positive it will be Nagini. I think that Harry will destroy all the horcruxes, and then go kill Nagini. Then perhaps Voldemort would be close enough for them to fight and one if not both essentially die.
Padfoot313
I know my initial answer was Nagini, that is if she is a horcrux.

The ones we know,
Diary - destroyed
Ring - destroyed
Locket - ????
Cup - Harry knows it exists
Ravenclaw item - ????
Gryffindor item - ????
Himself

Ok there is the order in which they will be destroyed. Himself is not a horcrux, but it is the seventh part, so by going by this I would say something from gryffindor will be the last horcrux to be destroyed, if it was made. If nagini is one, then she will be last and something from raven or gryff would not have been made a horcrux.

ooh one last thing, I knwo I posted this somewhere else but I can't find it. I personally am against the sorting hat being a horcrux, but this helps support it. We know that Godric took the hat off his head, making it from gryffindor, but Ravenclaw placed her knowledge into the hat, making the hat part her as well. If this is a horcrux, then he has an item from both houses rolled in one, and allowing the last horcrux piece to be nagini. I doubt this and do not support it but I couldn't ignore the idea when it popped in my head so I wrote it down, but it is possible.

Hope this helps
the master of avada kedavra
I think that nagini will be the last horcruxe destroyed.Because if nagini is a horcruxe then it is the closest horcruxe to voldemort.And about godric hollow harry will be going there in the start of the book so it won't be the last horcruxe that is destroyed by harry.
Rikukhrule
I voted for Nagini. I mean face it, killing a living horcrux is gonna be a lot harder than "killing" an inanimate horcrux, such as the locket. I mean unlike the others, THE SNAKE CAN FIGHT BACK!! Yea, that should be a big battle in the 7th book, Harry vs. Nagini. This is assuming Nagini is a horcrux of course.
Also, Nagini is very close to Voldemort. It's gonna be hard for Harry to get the snake on its own. Voldemort is gonna know almost immediantly when Harry kills Nagini. I think that Harry's gonna kill Nagini, Voldemort's gonna hunt down Harry, and then we have our big battle scene.
Slightly off topic: I always pronounced it na-gi-knee, not na-gee-knee.(I like my pronounciation better)
Golden Phoenix
I said other because, as we know, one of the main characters is going to die and I assume that Harry will have to kill them because they are a Horcrux. Well, I'm not really sure...tell me what you think.
chrth
Now that I think about it, I wonder if Nagini isn't going to be the last horcrux destroyed. When it comes time for Harry to confront Voldemort, won't the Dark Lord suspect even a little that his other horcruxes have been destroyed and send Nagini away (into hiding)? Maybe Nagini is the next one killed? Maybe Nagini shows up at Bill and Fleur's wedding?
Pyro
i dont think it will be nagini because why would you want to make something very close to you, something that could easily be destroyed?, i think it will be Slytherins locket cuz voldy will most likely have it colse to him
hp6
i think the last horcrux to be destroyed will be harry, i dont know how, and i dont know if harry will live or not, but one theory is he will have to go through the veil, so i think that harry and voldemort will be the last souls destroyed.
jsousa69
I don't think Harry's a horcrux...If he was why would Voldemort want to kill him? He would be destroying a part of his own soul...and if he destroy a part of his soul he got weak...Honestly i think that it's Nagini that is going to be the last Horcrux Destroyed
gryffendor_rockerchick1378
I REALLY don't want Harry 2 die. If he does, I will cry my pretty blue eyes out, and do something drastic and revengeful!!! (you guys: jerry.gif)

lol. Anyway, I think that in the hopeful case that Harry is not a horcrux and does not die, either Nagini or a Gryffendor thing will be destroyed last, because, like some say, Nagini is the closest thing to Voldie, and it would make sense. And If Harry is destroying them (which is likely) I'm not sure it would be so easy to destroy something like a Gryffendor thing (I think, I guess.).

ShainaPotter
Honestly, I think it will be Nagini, because she is so close to Voldemort. Honestly, if Harry were a Horcrux, why would Voldemort be so hell-bent on killing him? He wouldn't want to destroy on of his horcruxes, even if he did have more.....
FireFishie1
I would have to say Nagini because she is closest to voldemort and harry will have to destroy all the horcruxes before he kills Voldemort. I don't think harry will be able to get to nagini without getting close to voldemort.
The Chosen Captain
well, its kind of obvious that nagini will the last one if she is a horcrux because she will be near voldemort right? and harry will only face after destroying the others so he would only go near voldemort after destroying the other horcruxes
TheManekin
I'm not sure which would be the last one destroyed. And it think that he won't destroy them all. because there's like 3 or 4 to go and its going to be a book. And if he gets them all deastroyed hes a wonder boy! Fought off death. And destroyed all Horcruxes. WOOW!
trevors_protector
one thing, how can harry be a horcrux if voldy has to die... because oboisly voldys body is a horcrux and harry wouldnt be able to destory him if he had to die.. so i guees either harry or voldy is the last horcrux.... wacko.gif wacko.gif
writer101
I voted for something of Gryffindors or Ravenclaws, because Harry doesn't even know what they are yet! With the others, it's just the task of finding them and destroying them. But with the two I voted for, Harry has to figure out what they are before finding them and destroying them.
Lt. General of Dumbledore's
There is no doubt in my mind that Harry is NOT a horcrux, and I don't think that Voldemort would've even considered to make harry a horcrux, given the fact that he would have to kill Harry to fulfill the prophesy. I doubt that Voldemort would turn Harry into a horcrux just to kill him. It makes absolutely no sense. Plus, he's tried to kill Harry repeatedly, without success. He was going to try to kill Harry in Socerer's Stone, through Quirrel. That did not work out, as Quirell was disintegrated when he touched Harry. He tried to kill Harry in Chamber of Secrets, when the BAsilisk had bitten Harry, Voldemort had not made any attempt to save Harry. If Harry was a horcrux, then Voldemort(Tom Riddle, then) would have treid to save him. In Goblet of Fire, Voldemort was going to kill Harry through a duel, but it didn't work out as planned. My point being, if Voldemort had indeed tranferred his soul to Harry, then why try time and time again to kill him? It makes absolutely no sense for him to do that. Now Nagini, on the other hand, could very well be a horcrux. I also believe that Nagini, as some believe Godric Gryffandor is Fawkes, may in fact be Salizar Slytherin. Nagini is extremely intellegent for any creature, let alone a snake. Just as Fawkes is extremely intellegent for a bird. I believe in the final, climactic battle between the two sides, that Fawkes and Nagini will reveal exactly who they are. Just my opinion.
kyp
As Lt. General of Dumbledore's Army said for Voldemort to make Harry a horocrux and then repeatedly try and kill him is utter nonsense. Think of why Voldy wanted to make horocrux's. He wanted to become immortal. We also know that he wanted to make 7 horocrux's and that Harry's death would be when he was planning to make the 7th. How do you kill someone and then turn the corpse into a horocrux hmm? Granted a body buried 6 feet under would be a pretty safe place but still tongue.gif. Regardless of that he didn't suceed. Harry didn't die...Voldemort lost his powers. Had Harry just not died Voldy could have made a horocrux from Lily's death but that is if he had not lost his powers. Also as DD said it isn't very smart to put a horocrux in something that can think for itself. A human would be a far cry worse than a snake. You would have very little to no control over a human horocux. What if the person you put it in decided to commit suicide? Then your a horocux short. If anything Voldemot is arrogant but not stupid. Which leaves another topic open to discussion and something I don't think very many people have realized and it may be important to think about it. We have been going on the assumption that there are 6 horocrux's and the part of the soul still in Voldemort's body. We know that 2 have been destoyed. That means most people are assuming that there are still 4 horocrux's and Voldy to deal with. If he never made the one he was planning to make from Harry's death but didn't suceed are there really only 3 left? Something that I have been pondering for a couple of weeks now. Oh and in asnwer to the question I am thinking it will also be Nagini for the sheer fact that she is never far from Voldemort.
gamma
" Could you have expected the death of Dumbledore?"
um yeah dumbledore was the only one voldy ever feared so yeah I kinda knew that was ahead
hermione.
i think it will be voldemort himself...but i dunnu maybe if all the horcruxes are destroyed voldemort mite die automatically....u know because he has only like a tiny bit of soul left in him!!!
Ryan G
Yes, back to kyp's message to make a correction....

(Quote) We have been going on the assumption that there are 6 horocrux's and the part of the soul still in Voldemort's body. We know that 2 have been destoyed.

We will be going under the assumption that there are 6 horcrux's and that part of V's soul is still in his body, and yes 2 of them have been destroyed for sure (the ring, and one of the ingredients used in the potion to bring back V, we do not know for sure that the locket has been destroyed... I believe it is the irremovable locket in #12 Grimmald Place.... but we don't know if it is unenchanted). So that means that there is 4 horcrux's counting the one that is still in Voldemort's body, which means that there are 3 left.... which means that.... one of them "COULD BE" locket that is at #12 Grimmald Place, another "COULD BE" Huffelpuff's chalice, and the other thing "COULD BE" Nagini.

I think that Nagini will be the last one to be destroyed, "IF" she is actually a horcrux, for the same reason as kyp, she is never far from Voldemort

And, to add to my last point (posted above), Voldemort probably will be the last one to be destroyed.... but htat is not necessary, because he could dispose of the cup and the locket and then go and kill Voldemort, and just leave Nagini until the very end.... but I still think that Voldemort will be last..

wait..?? since when has one of the ingredients to the potion been a horcrux??
what happened to the diary that DD said was a horcrux? we can be 99.9% positive that DD is right about the horcruxes that are left becaus if he were wrong it would lead to alot of extra searching for harry when hes already got to find 3 others and then kill nagini and LV.
GreenGred
I am almost 100% sure it will be voldy's body. I just think that has to be the last one.
PurpleForge
I think since we don't know what this gryff/raven horcrux is, it will be last to go before voldemort's body of course.
But it could be nagini also?
lil_johnf
well of course voldy will be last, but voldys not a horcrux. the soul in him was his to begin with he didnt need to place it there.
yeah nagini being last makes sense. heres how i envision it. Harry goes traps voldy, kills nagini, then either kills voldy or does something to him worse then death since DD says there are things worse then death i think harry might figure those things out and do one or all of them to voldy.
jault01
I know this may sound silly and I haven't worked out all of the kinks and I am sure you will be quick to help me put this together. So before Harry was attacked when he was a baby, LV had some of the horcruxes already. He was supposedly saving Harry's death to make his last horcrux, or at least that is what I was under the impression of. So at the time of Harry's parents deaths he would have only had 6 horcruxes. Also LV was destroyed that night, so that might be one seventh of his soul gone, leaving the rest of his soul in 6 horcruxes scattered around. So at this point wouldn't he have had to get part of his soul back from a horcrux? This might only leave 5, at the time that is. Or on that night did his body die and his soul escape and have to live in something else for a while. So when Quirrel found LV, did he actually find a horcrux and then LV attached himself to Quirrel, or was it that same soul that floated around, because I would think that the soul couldn't last 13 years before being Wormtail found him. Even if the first part is the case, Harry destroyed Quirrel, so wouldn't that destoy another part of the soul, leaving 4. And about that. How did Wormtail find him, did he find LV in that tiny mutant form, or did he find a horcrux and release the soul and then revive him that night in book 4. Which would be the soul that he is using now, which would leave 3 other horcruxes. Then we must take into account Riddle's Diary, destroyed, 3 left counting the part he retains in his body. That would leave 2. The Dumbledore destroyed the ring, leaving 1 other horcrux, the locket. So we also think that he may have made Nagini into a horcrux from the old man's death at the beginning of book 4, so that would bring the total up to 3, including the part that remains in his body.

I know that was probably confusing and not right at all, but I think I bring up at least one good point, and that is, we don't know exactly how many horcruxes are left. JKR could have been misleading us. Remember that she also wrote DD saying that he is an old man and that he makes mistakes, so maybe he is missing some horcruxes that have been destroyed. Please feel free to tell me that I am way off and that I should go back and reread all of the books again.
Madmoiselle Lilly
If Harry is a horcrux (which I kind of doubt that he is) then obviously he'll be the last one to be destroyed.

But if he isn't a horcrux then I honestly have no idea.
Thorache
My thought is that Harry is the final horcrux (or rather his scar is), but that it will not be discovered until late in the book. The reason for this belief goes back to the prophecy and the belief that it was stated that either Harry or Neville Longbottom could be the one that is to be Voldemort's nemesis. This information could ultimately be used to ensure the end of Voldemort, because Neville would still be alive (thus fulfilling the prophecy that Voldemort and he cannot both live) and this would mean that the spell to remove the last horcrux in the end (likely cast by Neville) will mean the ultimate death of both Harry and Voldemort, which would be the two characters to die in book 7 as JKR has described.

It would be a perfect surprise end to the book because not a lot of attention is spent on Neville (and he is made to look like a buffoon), and yet there have been subtle messages pointing to this possible result in the storyline.

Cheers.
potter crazy
Personally I believe it will be Slytherins locket because it was the first one that Harry tryed to find but i think it will be the last to be destroyed just to add a bit of symetry and irony to the whole thing as a bit of interset.
DEMENTORSKiSS XOXO
i think the the locket was already destroyed by R.A.B .. some one said that it would be Godrics Hollow but thts a place not a thing so i really dont think tht will be the horcrux ithink the last thing to go would be something of Ravenclaws.

Chico
I think probably it will be smething that we still do not know what it is, someyhing that we will just realise in the very end.

And now that we are talking about horcruxes i have something i've been wondering, it is about the first horcrux, well we know tha it was the diary of Tom , but if i did understand correctly, to preforme an horcrux and split your soul you have to murder someone right? Well my question is once Tom or Voldemort as you prefer, was only sixteen and was sill in the wizard's school, could he had killed someone without beeing noticed by DD who was keeping an eye on him? And if he killed who did he killed?
First i thought about the girl Myrtle, but she said that she died when she saw the eyes of the Basilisk so... What d you guys think??
sullivanbkeene
This question presumes that we know what the Horcruxes are. I can believe that Slytherin's locket is one, and since Jo likes to use irony, I guessed that the ironic twist here would be that the very Horcrux that is currently in Grimmauld Place will probably be the hardest one to destroy. If Dumbledore was correct about Nagini, that could be difficult as well, which would actually make for one helluva final scene. Harry will be trying to kill Nagini, while Voldemort is trying to kill him, which would give LV a decided advantage, unless Harry can somehow kill both Nagini and LV simultaneously.

REVISED THEORY.....

Now that we have the cover art, I was thinking about the version that has Slytherin's locket on the cover. I'm not convinced that Slytherin's locket is at Grimmauld Place, after seeing how ornately the locket on the cover appears. I don't recall JKR making reference to the fact that the locket at Grimmauld Place was that stylish, and don't you think that someone there would have noticed that big old S on the locket, if it had been there? I think that whole discussion could be a curveball that JKR is throwing at us.

That having been said, I agree that Slytherin's locket is one of the horcruxes, and believe it will be the last one he'll find before squaring off against Voldemort.
jiggery-pokery
I think Nagini for the fact that she can attack back and kill Harry. I mean finding her would be easy but actually getting a hold of her is going to be very tricky and will require stealth.
