A red-gold glow burst suddenly across the enchanted sky above them as an edge of dazzling sun appeared over the sill of the nearest window. The light hit both of their faces at the same time, so that Voldemort's was suddenly a flaming blur. Harry heard the high voice shriek as he too yelled his best hope to the heavens, pointing Draco's wand:" Avada Kedavra! ""Expelliarmus! "The bang was like a cannon blast, and the golden flames that erupted between them, at the dead center of the circle they had been treading, marked the point where the spells collided. Harry saw Voldemort's green jet meet his own spell, saw the Elder Wand fly high, dark against the sunrise, spinning across the enchanted ceiling, spinning through the air toward the master it would not kill, who had come to take full possession of it at last. .J.k.

About This Quote
Harry Potter and Lord Voldemort are both in a battle for the ownership of the Elder Wand. When Harry finally manages to bring Voldemort down, Voldemort is shot with an Avada Kedavra spell. This spell is an advanced form of the Killing Curse that is capable of killing even when it does not hit its intended target. The spell leaves a glowing green jet that can be seen from miles away and can be used as a beacon to locate its target. The "bang" and the green jet mark the moment where Harry kills Voldemort.
