Chapter 1
Meanwhile:
"I do not think we should allow the Weasley twins into the order just yet Albus." Said Professor McGonagall as she stood up to refill the cups of tea sitting around the table in the teachers lounge, currently hosting the order.
There was confusion and a lot of weariness going around. Albus had called them all to tell their opinions on the matter of asking Fred and George Weasley to become full time members of the order. A lot of them were unsure what to think since most of them had become the target of the twin's new inventions.
"Why ever not? They have ingenious tricks that could help the order wouldn't you say?" Said Albus merrily as he popped a lemon drop into his mouth and glancing around the room to show his amusement in the situation.
"As unpleasant as this is, I agree with McGonagall." Said Snape sneering down in his cup of tea. "Those fools would only get us killed when their littleā¦inventions malfunction in the middle of a battle."
"Are you sure your not just a little sour over the fact that they turned you into a woman and made you sing on the karaoke machine?" Said Remus trying hard not to laugh as he remembered Snape in a red dress, singing 'Red Blooded Woman' as he danced on stage for 20 minutes.
Sneering, Snape flipped him the birdie and was about to insult him when Bill coughed.
Standing up, Bill looked calmly around the room; gathering the attention of those around him. "I think we should give them a chance. We may even be able to use their shop as a look out if they let us. It's in the middle of one of the busiest wizard streets in London, you can't go wrong with that."
He was interrupted from saying more however when a shrieking whistle went off through the castle, alerting those in the meeting.
"What is that?" Asked Tonks from her corner on guard with her wand out.
"Something is wrong with Harry. Snape, Poppy come with me. Hurry" Said Albus jumping up. Quickly grabbing his teacup, he turned it into a portkey, and gathered around the two people he called to him. "Hurry now, we haven't much time" Was heard just before the three disappeared.

The blinding light slowly faded, waking Harry up as it left. Carefully, he tested his limbs, and finding they weren't hurting, sat up and looked around him confused.
'What was that all about' he thought to himself as he looked around the room in search for the cause of the light. Stumbling slightly on his trunk, he gasped in surprise. 'My back no longer hurts, I'm not even hungry anymore' he thought to himself as he slowly lowered himself onto his bed.'

Jerking back in surprise, Harry picked up his wand from his side table and pointed it towards the figures that had just popped in. "Who are you!" he asked standing up slowly aimed towards the white smoke that came with magical movement, a curse ready on his lips.
"Not to worry my dear boy, it's just us." Said Albus motioning with his hands that it was safe for Harry to put down his wand. "We got readings of a disturbance and came to check it out."
"Albus, do you see this?" Poppy exclaimed walking around as she waved her wand up and down Harry as if trying to make sure her readings are correct.
"See what?" Said Harry sitting back down.
"Harry dear, what happened a few minutes ago? Maybe that will explain everything?"
"I'm not sure." He said slowly looking around the room in confusion. "One minute I was counting down to my birthday, the next moment there was a blinding light, and I felt really sick."
"Mr. Potter sit down before I restrain you!" Called Poppy as she tried to continue her health screening only to have Harry try to get up and move around. "This shouldn't be possible, no not possible at all." She muttered as she looked over the results in confusion.
"What? What's wrong with me?" Asked Harry, twisting to see over her and look at the results and slipping off the bed with a bang to the floor. Somewhat embarrassed he got back up and sat on the bed.
"Having fun?" Snape sneered from the corner he had chosen to stalk.
"Now now my boys we need to get back to Hogwarts, and discuses this. Come now, and I'll get us there in a Jiffy." The Headmaster said while respelling the cup, and looking over at the other 3 occupants in the room. Glancing at the notes Poppy made, he frowned "I'm afraid that some people have a lot of explaining to do if even I don't understand how all this came to be."

"Ahh Remus, Severus, have a seat wont you? Would anyone like a Lemon Drop? How about some peppermint tea?" Albus said while looking at the two men in front of him.
"No, thank you Albus, but why were we summoned here? I thought you wanted me to continue my research?" Said Moony looking confused.
"Yes, yea, but I think that this is a more important manner so I put Tonks in charge of that operation. As hard as that is to believe." Said the Headmaster laughing as he thought of the young clumsy witch. "On to more important matters I'm afraid. What do you two know about our young mister Potter? Or better yet, what information did you two with hold from me about Lily Evans?"
Remus and Snape looked at each other and Held each other's gaze. 'Oh shit' they thought remembering back to their seventh year.

Sitting up against the headboard, Harry was upset, and pouting at the Healer. After she refused to tell him anything he had ignored her and her requests to continue monitoring his health.
"Pleeaasseee?" Harry pouted trying to get the witch to tell him why she was so confused. "It's my health!" he said when he got a reprimanding look for his whining. "I have a right to know about my health."
"Yes, but even I don't know what's going on. When the Headmaster has everything figured out then you will know. Now stop fighting me and turn to your side young man!" Said Poppy, smiling softly as Harry tried pouting to get information. She was a healer, surely he knew by now that she was immune to the puppy dogface?
All are losing theirs and blaming it on you
