It's been awhile since that conversation with Remus and Sirius. Hermione got into a routine at Grimmauld Place. Hermione headed down to breakfast. She sat there and then Mrs. Weasley brought the mail back. Everyone was enjoying their conversation until they heard a noise from the fireplace. Everyone turned to see Kinsley. Mr. Weasley ran over to see what is going on.

"What is it Kingsley?" Mr. Weasley asked.

"Harry has been attacked. Demetors! It doesn't look good." Kingsley stated.

Everyone went quiet in the room. Sirius glanced over to Remus and Hermione. She was scared for her best friend. Mrs. Weasley turned to everyone and told the children to go upstairs to bed. Hermione was about to fight back but she knew that right now it was about Harry. Hermione followed the others up to their rooms.

Hermione huffed and sat on her bed. Ginny glanced over to her and said,

"Hermione everything is going to be alright. Harry will be alright."

Hermione got up and walked out of the room. She went across the hall and opened the door. Two heads turned to look at her. Fred smiled and asked,

"How can we help you Hermione?"

"I need one of those extendable ears that you invented." Hermione stated.

George looked over to Fred and Fred nodded. George went over to a drawer and pulled on out. He came back and Hermione was about to grab it but George pulled away. He smirked at her and Fred got up to stand by George.

"Well Hermione, you want something we have and now it's our turn." Fred stated.

Hermione huffed and then asked,

"What do you want?"

The boys looked to each other and then smirked. They already knew what they wanted. Hermione was a little scared on what it was going to be. Fred stepped forward and said,

"Mione, don't worry it. We will cash in when the time comes."

Hermione looked surprised at the two. She could not believe that they would not want something now. Hermione had a lot of things going through her mind that they would like for her to do. A lot of things that was in her list was about letting them get away with pranks.

Hermione nodded and then was about to walk out before Fred touched her shoulder. Hermione looked at him. You could see the concern in Fred's eyes. Fred was concerned for Hermione. Hermione smiled at him and left the room. Fred turned and huffed. George just shook his head and said,

"You should have said something."

"Oh shut up." Fred stated laying back on his bed.

"You really like her don't you?" George asked.

"What are you talking about?" Fred asked confused.

"Hermione. You like Hermione." George stated.

Fred did not say anything. He never really thought about it. Hermione was different from other girls and that was what he liked about her. Fred did not realize his feeling for her. He knew that he had some types of feelings for Hermione since last year but was the feelings him liking her.

Hermione walked to the edge of the baluster and let the ear hand down. She tried to listen in but it was hard to hear. She only heard a few things before hearing a door open up. Hermione pulled up the ear and quickly ran back to her room. Ginny looked over and just smiled and shook her head.

It took a while for anyone to say anything. Hermione finally got up and went downstairs. She walked right into the kitchen and looked around. Everyone looked at her and did not know what to say. Ron and the others followed Hermione but stayed on the other side of the door. Mrs. Weasley looked at Hermione upset and said,

"Hermione you should not be down here. This is not for you to hear."

"Why not? We are in the middle of it already. Do I have to make a list on how many times I have helped you out without knowing it? If it wasn't for Harry, Ron, or myself you would have never gotten the information on how far Voldemort side has grown in the past few years. You would never have this hideout if we did not save Sirius ourselves. It was Harry who fought Voldemort last year and was able to have a list of Death Eaters for you all to have to keep track of them. I think that we have a right to listen in on these meetings." Hermione ranted.

Sirius smirked and said,

"I am with the smart one. They deserve to hear all of this. They are in the middle of it all. This is the next generation that is going to get involved."

"They will not be involved!" Molly stood up shouting.

"No offense Mrs. Weasley but I am almost of age and I have a right to be involved. I am already involved in the war enough that is. So is everyone one else her and outside in the world. They don't care about age. Voldemort's side does not care what age you are. If you are thirty-five or thirteen he will kill you. In my option I would want to know everything to keep myself and friends alive." Hermione stated.

No one said anything. They could see where Hermione was coming on. Everyone was thinking different things and you could see it in their faces. Everything was going to change when they figure things out. Kingsley spoke up and said,

"All you need to know right now is that we are sending a team to rescue Harry and there will be a hearing. But Miss Granger thank you for your input of the war and we will definitely keep you in thought when we need help."

Hermione nodded and then went upstairs with the others. Ron ran up to catch up to her and asked,

"Is that it? Aren't you going to fight more? They did not tell us much."

Hermione turned to Ron and said as calm as possible,

"Us? You did not help at all. You were too afraid to stand up for what is right let alone walk into the kitchen."

Ron did not know what to say. He looked at Hermione with a slight blush and continued walking up the stairs. It was just Fred, George, and Hermione left on the stairs. They looked at her with a smile and asked,

"What now?"

"Now we…
