They see the Ministry of Magic as inept to prevent the attacks and bring
the perpetrators to justice. Always thirsty for adventure, 4 friends
embark on a secret mission to discover the identities of the Death eaters,

and Wizarding kind forever…….

The Order of the Pheonix is Born Chapter One
James and Sirius entered the Great Hall on a cold and bleak January morning. They had returned from the holidays the night before, but they were too tired to speak. James laid his head on the table. He felt like he hadn't had a good nights sleep in ages. In fact, it had been almost a week since he slept through the night. Sirius, never able to pass up the prospect of food, dove into the breakfast laid before them. They were all unusually quiet, since there was so much to discuss, but no one dared here in the Great Hall…ears were everywhere.
Suddenly, owls burst into the great hall and began their morning deliveries. James, without rising from the table took out a few knuts from his robes, placed them in the owl's pouch and removed his Daily Prophet from her beak.
"Prongs! You are getting awfully good at that, mate!" exclaimed Sirius in surprise. "Yeah, 7 years worth of Daily Prophets and it kinda becomes routine." He answered through a yawn.
James unrolled the Daily Prophet and started to read. He sat up suddenly, his face went pale white and his mouth dropped to the table.
"What is it? What's wrong? What is in that paper?" asked Sirius with concern.
"Listen to this!" James said with a quiver in his voice.
More Muggles Tortured
Ministry of Magic Issues Warning
6 more muggles were found unconscious at a bus depot near Covent Garden last night. They were found bound and gagged with a dark mark hovering over their heads. Thankfully, the Ministry sent agents to contain the situation and place memory charms on all witnesses before the Muggle authorities arrived.
A ministry informer said that the occurrences are related and that the Minister of Magic will be issuing a statement later today. Apparently, these tortures seem to be connected to a rising group of Dark wizards whose identity is unknown. Several letters have been sent to the Minister making threats against "mudbloods" and "muggle-lovers".
The Ministry has handsome rewards for any information regarding these incidents.
Sirius froze, unable to speak. James lowered the paper and stared into space. Finally, Sirius spoke.
"Um, later, I need to tell you something really important. We must meet in our secret tunnel. You need to hear this."
James nodded in agreement, still in shock. "Does it have anything to do with your holiday at your mothers?"
"Yeah, it does, as a matter of fact. But I don't want to talk about it here." He nodded towards the Slytherin table where his cousin, Narssica Black was sitting with her friends.
"I follow you. We will meet later, after class."
Later on, the two met in the secret tunnel to Honeydukes.
"Prongs, things are getting serious. I overheard my family discussing the 'incidents', Bellatrix was beaming with pride. Of course they wouldn't let me too close, but I overheard some of their conversation."
James looked intrigued. This information fit with what Sirius and he had already discovered. The incidents were planned as part of an uprising of pure-bloods. This made the string of tortures even more frightening. Pure- blood wizards out to rid the world of muggle-borns.
"Padfoot, my friend, I am sorry you had to be around that. Look, we have been sitting here at Hogwarts for 7 years. We have the N.E.W.T.'s coming up soon, and we should be focused on out studies, but I can't help but think….."
"Think of what? You aren't, are you?"
"Well, think of it. You come from a pure-blood family, an automatic in to conversations. I have the invisibility cloak. We could, I don't know, maybe, sneak out and find them ourselves? You could discover where they are going to strike next!"
"Errrr…I don't know. The family doesn't exactly talk to me anymore. I am a Gryffindor, shame of the family."
James mulled over his plans in his head. He couldn't go to Dumbledore and ask if he could help. He did know that Dumbledore had something to do with the situation, but would never allow them to assist.
"Well, I think that I have waited to long to see some action from the Ministry. I think it is high time we take matters into our own hands. Maybe then, if we discover the true identities of the Death Eaters, we will finally prove ourselves worthy to join the fight!"
An impish grin crept across Sirius' face…."Since when have I ever turned down a proper challenge!"
The two left quickly, not wanting to arouse suspicion. They would make their plans tonight and sneak out of Hogwarts, it was the only chance they had……..
