Neville never expected to hear the word 'hero' applied to himself.
Heroes were people like Harry or Professor Dumbledore. Both brave from the time they were in their nappies. Both Gryffindors through and through. Not boys like him who couldn't even remember the password to the common room without writing it down.
But when he pulled the sword of Gryffindor out of the Sorting Hat and people started to call him 'hero' he finally felt like, perhaps, heroes weren't born. They were made. And he was one of them. He spared Voldemort one last glance. Nagini didn’t stand a chance.
