One of the things I have my heart set on in book seven is a scene involving Neville Longbottom and Bellatrix Lestrange where Neville avenges his parents. I don't care if it's bloody, gory and altogether nasty and Ron and Hermione get killed in the process. Neville needs his revenge. Harry can help, but I want the curse -preferably of the unforgiveable variety - to come from Neville's wand.

Unfortunately, I think the setting for that was in the battle at the ministry in book 5, so I'm a bit fearful that Neville is not going to make it to the end of book 7.
However, my actual prediction is that something is going to come of his frequently mentioned expertise at Herbology. I think he will "bloom" (sorry) in book 7 and use his extraordinary skills and understanding of herbology to (1) find a cure for his parents or (2) find and/or destroy a horcrux. If he figured out a way to poison Bellatrix, that would be ok, too.

I agree Neville will do something very graet whether it's destroying a horcrux,killing Bellatrix,saving his parents or a number of other heroic things.
