A/n: For my first 3 reviewers EVER……I love you!!! This chapter isn't the most interesting but I hope you like it anyway!
It was a small article in the bottom left corner of the paper. Harry quickly finished his breakfast so he could read it.
Mysterious Murderer Kills 4
Six bodies were found dead last night in an alleyway in downtown London. The victims were all wearing robes and appeared to be clutching some sort of wooden stick. "We think they were part of a cult and were on they way to a gathering, but someone got them before they had a chance to get there," says Chief Policeman Bernard Sills. "We don't know who, or what killed them. They have no injuries or wounds visible on the exterior of their bodies, and when I did the autopsy it appeared as though their hearts just stopped beating," says Doctor Steve Gawning. He continues, "It not uncommon for people to die of heart failure, but for four people to drop dead at the same time because of it, is really very strange."
What were wizards doing wandering around in London? And who were they?
Harry had to get some answers.
Ron-
Have you heard anything about that attack in downtown London? I read something about it in the Muggle paper today. Who was killed? Do you know? What were they doing in London? Please write back soon!

Harry tied the letter to Hedwig's leg and watched her take off out the window. He decided to get started on some homework while he waited for Ron's reply. After about an hour he was done writing the remaining 11 inches of his Potions essay. He reluctantly pulled out his History of Magic essay and had a good start on it when he heard a tap on the window. Hedwig was back with Ron's reply! Harry rushed over to the window to let his beautiful snowy owl in. He took the piece of parchment off her leg. It read-
Harry-
I did hear about the attack. The four people that were killed belonged to the Order. I don't think we ever met any of them. I didn't recognize any of the names that Dad mentioned. I can't find out much else. Especially because I'm not allowed in the meetings. You know the rules; we can't join the Order until we're of age. Anyway, I think you coming here in a couple of days. I heard Lupin talking about coming to get you. Hope to see you soon.
-Ron
Harry wasn't completely satisfied with Ron's answer but would hopefully learn more about it once he got to Number 12 Grimmauld Place.
A/n: I know…this chapter wasn't the greatest…: (. And it was really short. I think once the story starts to develop and everything the chapters will be longer…I hope. But don't forget to review!!!!
