The 5th year chronicles
Mrs.Figgs
Chap.1
At number 7 privet drive there lived an old lady, Arabella Figgs is her name. Though rarely anyone ever calls her that anymore. Not in this world anyways. For Arabella use to belong to a magical world. A world filled with candies that taste like boogers and blood, ton-tongue toffee that makes your tough grow bigger, and many other wondrous things. Arabella, or Bella as her close friends called her did not want to go back for 2 reasons: Albus Dumbledore, and Voldemort.
11 years ago she was an auror, one of the few that were around when Grindwald was defeated, but then witches and wizards have extended life times up to 6-8 times longer then muggles(none-magical people). Still she was younger then Dumbledore, and would probably be alive when he dies. Not that she wants that to happen, it's just that she hasn't been able to stand the sight of him1947. That was the year Dumbledore, her father left to take care of the world instead of his family.
He never knew of course that Arabella was his daughter, she didn't have the same last name. He probably never knew when my birthday was. Thought Arabella as she fed 1 of her many cats.
Voldemort was the other reason. Arabella had know him during school, he was charming, and smart, everyone in the school liked him. She knew that he was bad though, and Tom knew she did too. Though he remained his charming self to her as so the others couldn't tell he was what he was. She had also seen him at the chamber of secrets, he didn't know that at the time, because she had a special power too. A power that no one knows she has, a power that only few chosen people will be able to do. Being absolutly invisable, she has the power of being so invisable that people can walk through her, not here her, not see her, and not even sense her.
So I guess you could say she's afraid of Voldemort, but that isn't it. She had liked him before he went to the chamber, before he fell into the dark arts. She had liked him when he was innocent, and handsome. So now she is afraid of what he has turned into, an autocrat of evil.
That wasn't the least of her worries though( or actully it was), she had been asked to go back, by Remus Lupin. Voldemort was on the rise again, and she had been asked to defeat him. She had helped in that before, but now? She had almost gotten use to the muggle life with electricity and such.
She was going to take the offer. Not for Dumbledore and his allies, but for her self.
"Arabella Figgs will go against Voldemort for her self" said she loudly scaring one of her cats away. "I will defeat my fear with the death of Voldemort"
"Hello is anyone there, hello! Hello! Hurry up!" came Petunia Weasly's shrilly voice. Ms.Figgs personally detested the woman, she was a very big muggle. The only reason Arabella Figgs remained nice to her is because she was trying to act as much like a muggle as possible, and there is no one better then Petunia Dursly to learn from.
"Oh, hello Petunia, how are you doing. Did you here about the mail man?" said Arabella trying to act like a muggle by spreading as much gossip as possible. "no, I've got no time got to take dudders to the park. So I must leave the filth here" Said Petunia Dursly with her shrill voice as she went away. Leaving Harry Potter standing on Arabella Figg's door way.

Don't worry this is going to mainly be about Harry and his 5th year. The next one might take a while to come out though, because I've got other things to work on.
