Book 5 – Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.

Chapter 1 – A Reawakening

Opening her eyes she could see the sunlight creeping in threw a narrow gap in-between the curtains and with a slight creak she got out of bed and pulled on a dressing gown and slippers. Walking down the stairs she paused at the bottom and glanced towards the front door where there lay a small pile of mail which she quickly scoped up and took into the kitchen where it was placed upon the worktop.

Soon the kettle was blowing its merry note as it happily boiled away on the Aga. After quickly making a cup of tea she sat down and started to leaf threw her mail.

"Bill, bill, junk mail, Oh! interesting… " she muttered under her breath. Turning the envelope over she noticed something that she had not seen in over 10 years. The envelope was sealed with wax with contained the impression of a bird, well to be precise it was a impression of a Phoenix.

She quickly broke the seal and pulled out a piece of parchment and read it quietly to herself

I have resurrected the 'Order of the Phoenix' in this time of great danger and peril. The first meeting will be tonight.

You should all know where!!

Sitting back in her chair she read the letter again and slowly drank her cup of tea and contemplated what she would do.

Mumbling to herself again, this had become a bit of a habit as she spent a lot of her time alone these days, she said "It's time, I must prepare".

With that she quickly nipped from the kitchen and up the stairs into her bedroom which was surprising for a lady of her years. Getting down on her knees she fumbled under her bed for a few seconds and then re-emerged with a long thin box about 11" long. Removing the lid she looked at its contents and she felt a serge go threw her body it felt like a combination of power and happiness and made her smile. Although it had not seen the light of day since that terrible night many years ago it was still her most prised possession, her wand!.

Giving the wand a flick she performed several spells just to check she still had the ability to do so and then walked over to her wardrobe which stood in the corner of the room. Opening the door and flicking her wand she muttered "Alohomora" and a secret panel in the back of her wardrobe opened revealing a secret walk in compartment.

She climbed in to the wardrobe and entered the compartment looking around she saw all sorts of different things each of which brought a smile to her face as the memories flooded back. There was a rail and upon it hanging many robes and cloaks of different colours and designs. One of the walls was completely covered with old looking leather bound books. On the other side of the room a collection of jars and pots stood stacked on shelves and in front of them was a large silver cauldron.

Walking over to the cloths rail she selected several garments and carried them out of the room with her and placed them on her bed.

With that, she walked back downstairs and carried on with her normal daily chores except with one difference she used magic.
