"Harry, dear..." Said an overly sweet voice... "Please be so kind as to study your lessons, we can't have you failing class now."

"Yes, Aunt Dolores..." Harry Potter said as he strained a pleased smile, and quickly opened a thick book entitled, The Ministry's Manuscript for Beginners.

He then started to read, while far off in "London", Sirius Black was pacing back and forth. His heart heavily laden and his hair fell into his eyes and covered his creased brow.

It had been 5 long months since the woman named Umbridge had become the sole guardian of Harry, and Sirius and everyone else that was important in Harry's life had been unaware of his location. Each person who valued his friendship, Ron, the rest of the Weaslys, Hermione, Hagrid, and almost anyone else who had been Harry's friend, had come quite near to giving up hope of finding the "boy who lived."

At lot of time had passed in Sirius' household, and the Order had been shocked to finally find out that Umbridge was an active, new member, of the feared Death Eaters. This time around, Voldermont had not wanted to kill Harry, he had wanted to use him. Harry's abilities were being trained, tuned, and improved by various associated of the Dark Wizard, and all of Harry's memories of his friends, his godfather, and his parents, had been wiped away by a powerful spell of Voldermonts.
