Remembering the Past
Chapter 1
It was a warm Sunday afternoon in the middle of Spring.. The sky outside Hogwarts School Of Witchcraft and Wizardry had been bright and sunny with no trace of clouds whatsoever. But then it started to change, becoming dark and dreary. Inside the Gryffindor Common room, many students were trying to catch up on some last minute homework to be due the next day.
Harry Potter and Ron Weasley were working on an essay for Snape on Vampires that was to be 15 inches long. Hermione Granger, of course had already finished hers and was reading a new edition of Hogwarts, A History.
"Hermione, may I please see your essay, just for a second? I only need three more inches!" Ron said, measuring his work he had done so far.
"How many times do I have to tell you, you aren't going to learn anything by just copying off my papers?" said Hermione, annoyed. "Why don't you just go to the library and find another book?'
"I've already looked through a million books, Hermione! I'm not touching another one!"
"Well, then you can just fail the paper"
"Herm-"
But whatever Ron was going to say was interrupted by several loud bangs coming from outside. Harry got up, and went over to the window to see what had caused them.
"Oh, no! There's about 100 deatheaters out there! And I bet Voldemort is with them," Harry said.
"We have to get Dumbledore!" Hermione said.
As if on que, Professor McGonagall stepped through the portrait hole.
"I'm sure all of you have heard the loud bangs coming from outside, and we need you to stay calm. No student shall leave the common room without permission until further notice," she said.
She went back out the portrait hole, and Harry turned to Ron and Hermione.
"I have to go out there, and nothing you two say is going to stop me," he said, getting ready for them to try to change his mind.
"Ok, but we're coming with you," Hermione said, knowing it was no use to argue with him.
"Alright, I'll go get the invisibility cloak," Harry said.
So, while disobeying McGonagall's orders, they ran out the school's doors with wands at hand.
The fight didn't exactly work out how they had hoped. It seemed that Voldemort had gained quite a few more followers since their last meeting. While the members of the Order were unaware of Harry, Ron, and Hermione not being inside the school, the trio worked on the deatheaters. They were able to give the deatheaters some minor injuries, but 5 1/2 years of magical education was still not enough to completely stop them. After a while of fighting with the deatheaters, they came to Voldemort.
"Well, well, well. We meet again, Harry Potter. You will not get away this time," Voldemort said.
"That's what you think. I have always gotten away before. This time will be no different," Harry said.
Voldemort slowly moved towards Harry. He raised his wand.
"Crucio!"
Harry just missed getting hit by the spell. He sent a stunning spell at Voldemort, but missed. He then looked over at Ron and Hermione, to make sure they were alright. They were busy fighting with two deatheaters. In those few seconds in which Harry looked over at Ron and Hermione, Voldemort sent another curse at Harry, and this time, didn't miss. While nobody else was looking, Voldemort performed a spell that transported himself and Harry to his hideout. He then took the still unconcious Harry to a room and locked him in.
