Chapter 7 – The Initial Salvo
"We will start with the Ministry. It would be better if I were to meet with our dear Minister," (his voice took on a scathing tone) "alone."
He continued, seeing several of the Order members about to protest. "Not only do I have knowledge of the Ministry's enchantments and wards going back hundreds of years, but I am Harry Potter. The Minister may be stupid, but he is not that stupid as to forsake a possible endorsement from the Boy Who Lived himself. No, he will meet with me today."
He reached into the pocket on his outer robe and pulled out a clear glass orb that was small, round and about the size of a tennis ball. He explained, placing it in the middle of the table. "This is a scrying orb linked to myself. It is very delicate and finely attuned so please do not disturb it. It will show you what is happening around me, both visually and with sound. Don't worry; it only works one way so you will not be seen by anyone at the other end."
So saying, he spun on his heel and Apparated, leaving a still bemused and confused Order of the Phoenix behind.
A/N: Sorry for the short update. I'm preparing for my last exam for this session, and will then be tied down with Honour's Projects. However, I have reposted Chapter 6 with spelling corrections as poor spelling and grammar is a bit of a pet peeve of mine. Anyway cheers and take care. H.
