It was a normal day for the headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. He was giving a press conference about the Department of Mysteries fiasco that happened only three weeks ago.
He stood in front of the Ministry next to Minister Fudge.
"Headmaster, what is your opinion on the Potter boy?" A reporter called.
"Harry has my full backing and trust. I have a feeling between the two of us Voldemort will not be among us much longer." The headmaster said benignly his eye twinkling.
"Is Mr. Potter going to receive training for the upcoming battle?" Another reporter shouted from the back.
Dumbledore smiled again, "At the moment Harry is with his family but will be taken to a secure facility for training. He will not be attending Hogwarts this year I'm sorry to say."
That caused an uproar; the crowd began to speak all at once. Dumbledore shot sparks out of his wand and spoke again, "Harry will not attend Hogwarts this year but will go every now and then to speak to his friends and to retrieve his school work. I'm afraid I must be going I have much to do. Good day."
He stepped away from the podium while the minister spoke to the crowed and the Headmaster made his exit.
With a pop the old man disappeared.

When the man arrived at Hogsmade in the apparition zone he was immediately bombarded by his deputy Headmistress.
"Headmaster," She said solemnly. "Harry is not at his Aunts. The Uncle was found dead about four hours ago."
The headmaster stopped, this was a problem. "Call up the Order. We have to find him before Voldemort does."
Minerva McGonagall nodded and left in a hurry. Dumbledore followed at a much more sedate pace.
'This is bad. If what the uncle did to the boy comes out then my reputation will be in ruins.' The man shook his head. 'All I need is some of the special potion I have to use on Severus every now and then.' He smiled. "A few drops and everything will me fine."
The deputy headmistress heard him and huffed. "This is no time for candy Albus!" She shouted thinking he was thinking of lemon drops.
Dumbledore smiled, "Your right my dear I shall endeavor to put my mind to thinking of something more useful."

"Fred and George Weasley!" Molly shouted at her sons.
The twins it seems had blown something up...again.
"Yes mum?" They asked in unison as the entered the room with a loud crack. The Weasley matriarch took a calming breath. "What was that?" She was referring to a rather loud explosion that had happened just moments ago.
Fred and George gave her an innocent look. "Nothing mum." Fred assured her. "Just a small set back is all." George finished.
Molly eyed her children wearily she knew them something was up. She shook her head, they weren't doing anything at the moment so she'd let them off. "No more explosions for today alright?"
They nodded in unison and rushed back up to their room.
"We need to be more careful." Fred muttered. George nodded to his twin, "The alarm startled us. We should recognize its ring by now."
Fred rubbed his face tiredly, "We still haven't read the message. Would you like to do the honors brother-mine?"
His twin nodded. He picked up the small device. It was like a muggle cell phone, but smaller and had less buttons.
It was labeled with different names that couldn't be read by anyone other then them.
The first name was Harry.
The second was Professor Lupin
The third was their shop.
The last wasn't a number at all it was a portkey to a safe place.
On the screen it showed that the twins had a message.
"Twins,
I'm safe, met up with an old friend. I need you to keep an eye out for me. You know what to look for. Also the usual should work, stop by the bank I have something that might interest you.
Cheers,
The eighth Weasley.
"The usually eh? Wonder what he got us?" George said smiled. Fred cackled, "This will be fun."

"Message sent." A robotic female voice told Solo. The teen nodded to him self and placed the phone back in his pocket. He was in the kitchen he was about to fix a sandwich when he remembered to text the twins.
"What was that?" A voice asked from behind him. Solo turned on the teen with a brow raised. "I had heard that you were a tech expert Mr. Yuy. I hope I don't have to explain what a text is."
Heero glared, "Hn." He shifted his weight and leaned against the wall.
Solo rolled his eyes "Odd people." He muttered. "So odd."
Duo who had come up behind Heero laughed and wrapped his arms around his lover. "You're one to talk."
The black haired teen shook his head and sat down to eat. "So what's it going to cost to stay here?"
Duo gave the teen a strange look. "Cost ya? I brought you here remember?"
Solo nodded, "So what? Is this free?" He motioned to the fact he was sitting in their kitchen eating and taking up space.
"Why wouldn't it be?" Quatre asked coming into the kitchen. Heero and Duo followed.
Solo shrugged, "Nothing is."
Trowa came in next, "True," he said softly. He went to his lover's side all most instantly. The green eyed teen snorted as he looked at everyone in the room. "All we need is Wu-man and we have a whole little gathering going on here."
Duo grinned at his friends name for Wufei. Heero glared again, Trowa and Quatre smiled.
"Good thing I showed up isn't it?" Speak of the devil and he shall appear.
"Wuffers!" Duo shouted and glomped the poor boy. "Yuy," Wufei shouted, "Get him off! And stop manhandling my name!"
Solo laughed as Heero grabbed the long braid and pulled him back rather gently.
After Duo was detained in Heero embrace Quatre began to speak. "You said that nothing is free, you're right. What I want in return for letting you stay with us even if Duo did kidnap you is for you to answer our questions. That's all."
Solo tilted his head slightly, "Some questions I can't answer. Not because I don't want to but because I can't. It's classified."
The five nodded in agreement. Solo sighed, "Go ahead, ask away." His voice was a resigned as Wufei's was earlier when he learned of Duo kidnapping him.
Duo went first remembering the first time he saw Solo he had that small baggy. "Why did I find you with enough heroin to ensure a nice long stay in prison?" All eyes were on him.
The teen shifted uneasily he had almost forgotten about that. "My uncle was a junkie. He wouldn't pick up his own stuff, so I had too." He refused to meet anyone's eyes. This was embarrassing.
Quatre was next, "If you have family here on Earth how did you end up on L2?" Who could a child end up on a colony?
Solo popped his neck, and cleared his throat, "My parents died when I was a baby. They were murdered. I was sent to live with my aunt and uncle. They hated me, so to get rid of me, they decided to drop me off in a shuttle headed for L2 and leave it at that." He paused to take a bite of his sandwich. "After I got sick the old man that took me had me for two years." He closed his eyes tightly, trying to block the memories. "Then I went back to the relatives."
They all stared at him. "I suppose why the man took you is classified?" Wufei asked. Solo nodded. He was glad it was too.
"What are you running from?" Heero asked suddenly. Solo glared that was not a question he wanted to answer, "Something beyond your imagination."
The blue eyed teen leaned forward in a challenging way, "Really? Tell me." Duo gave both teens a look that said not to start a fight.
Solo clenched his jaw and looked away. "Classified." He spat.
Heero snorted, "Right." But he dropped it.

Severus Snape was enjoying the chance to relax. Not something he got to do very often. He was usually at his masters' beck and call.
A poison to make for the Dark Lord. A mission to take for Albus. Papers to grade, potions to make. It never ended.
So when the Weasley twins interrupted his quiet time he was only natural for him to be upset.
"What do you want Weasleys?" He snarled this was his time not time to be bothered by children whom didn't even attend school anymore.
The twins were very happy; they got to annoy the potions master.
"We have come to ask." George began happily.
"A favor of you." Fred explained smiling.
"You will be paid well." George promised his eyes glittered.
"All we need is your silence." Fred told him.
The potions master thought about it. It couldn't hurt to at least find what they want.
"What is it you require?" He asked smoothly, he wanted this over now.
The twins shared a smile, "We need several Blood-Replenishing Potions, bruise-healing paste, burn-healing paste…"
Snape cut him off he new what all they needed., "You need Potters normal potions for when he comes back to school yes?"
The twins blinked but nodded. How did the man know it was for Harry?
Snape nodded and swooped to his cupboard and pulled out a small back of potions. Since second year Potter has came to him after summer break to be healed. He knew what was needed after a round or two with the teen's uncle. "Here see to it that Potter gets these."
The red heads nodded, "Yes sir." Fred pulled out a small bag, and handed it to the professor. "Harry said you were to be given this."
Snape took the bag shook it lightly then showed the menaces to the fire place. Bid them goodbye and shoved them into the floo, smirking when he heard their yelps of surprise.
After they left he opened the bag. Half a pound of powdered Basilisk scales. Like always.
