Harry walked into the kitchen the nest day and found it empty and quiet. It was a good quiet because that meant everyone was occupied doing something. It was a bad quiet because that meant James and Sirius were up to something. Harry thought that he better go fine his dad and uncle before they did something stupid….without him.
He grabbed a water bottle and headed to out to the main entrance when Snape stopped him, "Potter, we need to talk."
"Have you seen dad and Uncle Sirius?" Harry asked.
Snape shook his head, "No, but we have to talk. Now."
Harry nodded his head, "What do you want?"
"There's someone else that can help," Snape sneered.
"Who?" Harry was interested.
"Draco Malfoy," Snape pointed out.
Harry froze, "What?"
"Yes, he can-"
"Harry, Harry!" Fred, George and Charlie ran up. "Harry, Harry."
"Potter listen to me." Snape demanded. "Harry, the potions are done," Fred said.
"But there's something else," Charlie rolled his eyes.
"Potter we must act!" Snape tried to yell over Fred, George and Charlie, who were also completing for Harry's attention.
"Harry!" Hermione and Ron ran up to him.
"Potter, listen to me!"
"The Potions Harry!"
"The letters," Hermione pointed out. "They've arrived."
"Potter, we must do something.!"
"The Truth Potions Harry!" "The DA is waiting for us to respond!"
Everyone was fighting for Harry's attention by talking louder and louder and all at the same time.
"Potter, do something!"
"The potions, Harry."
"The letters!"
"We have to get him!"
"Something is wrong with half of the potions."
"Neville and Luna!"
"Stop," Harry ordered but no one heard him.
"Prongslet!" Lupin ran up. "You'll never guess what happened."
"Potter, you have to get him."
"Some are pink!"
"Seamus and Dean!"
"James and Sirius blew it up!"
"He can help, Potter."
"The potions, Harry."
"The letters. We need to get them."
"Prongs and Padfoot blew the whole thing up!
Everyone talked and talked at the same time and started to form a circle around Harry. Harry, wanting to be a good leader tried to get to everyone but people kept calling his name, complaining or asking for help. He was getting overwhelmed.
"Harry, we have a problem," Ginny walked up with Lily at her side.
"Potter, we have to get him. Now!"
"The potions. We need you."
"We have to get to the DA now, before something happens."
"You're going to flip when you see what James and Sirius did!"
"We lost James and Sirius, Harry."
"Potter!"
"Harry!"
"Harry!"
"Harry!"
"Harry!"
"Prongslet!"
"Potter!"
"Harry!"
"Harry!"
"Harry!"
"Prongslet!"
"Potter!"
"Harry!"
"Harry!"
"Harry!"
"Prongslet!"
"Everyone just shut up!" Harry yelled. "Now everyone one at a time-" Just then James and Sirius came out of nowhere and tackled Harry to the ground.
"Harry, I'm sorry!" James said. "I didn't mean to."
"Don't be mad, Prongslet," Sirius pleaded. "We'll fix it. Promise."
"Potter!"
"Harry!"
"Harry!"
"Harry!"
"Prongslet!"
"It was an accident!"
"We didn't mean to!"
"Potter!"
"Harry!"
"Harry!"
"Harry!"
"Prongslet!"
"Don't be mad!"
"We'll fix it!"
Everyone closed in around Harry and started getting in his face, everyone trying to talk over each other. Soon it became yelling and people started to push others to get Harry's attention.
"Everyone shut up!" Harry bellowed as something in the distance exploded. "Just shut up and back up. You're to close to me. Now," Harry took a calming breath. "I can only handle one problem at a time. I might have two ears but I only have one brain. Mum, Ginny as you can see dad and Sirius are here so your problem is dealt with. You can go and do something and I'll talk with you two later. Snape, you were first so you can stay here. Fred, George, Charlie go wait back in the basement and I'll be with you as soon as I'm done with Snape. Hermione, Ron please make your way back to the library and I'll be there as soon as I can. Dad, Uncle Sirius. You better go and fix whatever it was that Uncle Remmie said you blew up. Now, if I hear one word from another person, I'm going to start blowing things up. You may go."
Harry waited for everyone to leave before he turned to Snape, "Now what were we talking about?"
"Someone who can help," Snape repeated. "Someone that's one our side."
"Who?" Harry asked.
"Draco Malfoy."
Harry stood there, motionless, "You mean Draco-I'm the core of all evil-Slythrin Pride-Loves anything that has to do with Voldemort-Malfoy? That Draco Malfoy?"
Snape nodded.
Harry shook his head, "I'm not sure we're talking about the same Malfoy. Because the Malfoy I'm talking about is the biggest Voldemort Supporter I've ever known. That can't be the same Malfoy you're talking about."
Snape sneered, "Draco Malfoy has changed. I'm his Head of House, I would know. We've been talking the last couple months and he's on your side."
Harry shook his head, "No, I don't believe it. How can the biggest Voldemort Supporter support me now? That just doesn't make sense."
"Well, it's true," Snape pointed out. "You have to go get him."
Harry took a breath, "Let's say for a second that I do believe you, Draco Malfoy is good and not evil. You are asking me to break not just into Hogwarts but a Hogwarts infested with Death Eaters and Dementors, just to save one person, who happens to be Draco Malfoy?"
Snape nodded.
"Why didn't you ask me to get him when I got you?" Harry asked. "That would have easier."
"You need to go get him," Snape ordered.
Harry smiled, "Do you care about him, Snape? That's sweet but as you can see I have other problems to be dealing with but Draco Malfoy is on my list. That will be the next project. But I since I can't do anything now, I must go see what Gred and Forge and Charlie did now." With that Harry turned on his heel and made his way to the dungeons.
The three Wesley's were sitting by a large cauldron and several little vials filled with clear liquids, "What can I do for you?"
"Potions are done," Fred pointed out. "That's good."
"Yes," Harry agreed. "Was that all you needed to tell me?"
Charlie moved and revealed thousands of little vials with pink liquids, "Some didn't turn out right, as you can see."
"Okay," Harry replied slowly. "And you needed me for what?"
"What do we do now?" George asked.
"Really?" Harry asked. "This is what you wanted to tell me?" Harry took a breath, "Throw the bad ones away and make some more. We're going to need as much as we can have."
"Okay, thanks!"
Harry walked out and to the library where Ron and Hermione where, "What can I do for you?"
"The letters came," Ron said. "You told us to tell you."
Harry nodded, "Yes, thank you. Um, they all will have to be separated when someone goes and gets them. Have Neville meet you, Ron at the petting zoo where I first talked to that snake at ten o'clock sharp in the morning. Hermione, you'll meet Luna at ten o'clock sharp tomorrow morning at that one coffee place. Uncle Remmie will meet Seamus in the back of that run-down clothing shop near the Muggle shopping center at ten o'clock sharp and Charlie will meet Dean at the Leaky Cauldron at ten o'clock sharp in the morning. I'll call a meeting tonight during dinner and explain everything else. Now since that's taken care of, I must go see what dad and Uncle Sirius blew up and something's telling me it's the Quidditch Field."
The closer Harry got to the field, the clearer voices became.
"Remmie, you know you can help us."
"Not my job."
"Please?"
"No! You're the ones who did it."
"Prongs, I'm blaming you right now."
"Me? I didn't do anything. You're the one who started it."
"I got the idea from you!"
"Don't blame me!"
"Who are we going to blame then?"
"Yourself."
"Prongs, what happened to the good days when we shared the blame?"
"That was before my son could blow me up."
Harry walked into the field and his mouth dropped open. The Pitch was indeed blown-up. Blackened holes were scattered all over the Pitch and pieces of grass were missing. The six golden hoops were actually destroyed. One hung upside side, another was gone, and pieces of others were missing, "What did you do?"
"Padfoot's fault!" James pointed.
"Me? It's your's!" Sirius retorted. "I bought the Pitch, why would I do this?"
"I don't care who's fault it is," Harry took a breath. "Just fix it. It's going to get very stressful around here and a little Quidditch will be good for everyone."
"Where are you going?" Sirius asked.
"Inside," Harry pointed out. "And, I don't want you two doing anything until this is fixed."
"You sound like my mum," James whispered.
"He sounds like Lily," Sirius mumbled.
"That's great," Harry rolled his eyes. "I'm glad I sound like girls. Remmie, please make sure they get this done."
Lupin nodded his head, "Okay."
Harry walked inside and flopped on the couch to relax. Everything was quiet and still. "Crap!" Harry sat up. "I still have to do something about Bill and Godrics Hollow. Can I not have a moment of silence?"
For the rest of the day, Harry went person to person making sure they were staying on track and there weren't any more problems. When it came to James and Sirius though, there were always problems. When Harry checked on them this last time, James and Sirius were wrestling each other yelling and screaming who's fault it really was. Harry sighed and gave up. He went into the kitchen to help Ginny and Lily prepare the dinner.
Everyone ate and talked about nothing really important. Everyone was carefree and relaxed, like there wasn't a war on the horizon.
Harry stood after everyone was done, "There's something we need to discuss. The DA will be arriving in the morning and I want everyone to listen to me. Hermione you will go get Luna, Ron you have Neville. Remmie, I need you to go meet Seamus at that run-down clothing store near the Muggle shopping center and ten o'clock sharp. Charlie, I'll need you to go get Dean and the Leaky Cauldron at ten sharp in the morning. Once you have them apparate them to the library. The library people, no where else. Fred, George you will be waiting in the library for them. Dad, Uncle Sirius, mum and Snape. You will be in a bedroom upstairs, not making any noise. I'll come and get you when I'm ready. Does everyone understand?"
"What do you need me to do, Harry?" Ginny asked.
"Nothing, you'll be with me the whole time," Harry smiled.
Fred stood up, "George and I are going to be in the library by ourselves?"
Harry nodded, "Yes and remember. It's not my library, it's Remmie's. And if you touch it, he might kill you. Believe me, dad and I would know. Does that sound good?"
Everyone nodded, so Harry continued, "Now what's more of a shock. Snape not being evil or James/Sirius/Lily being alive?"
"James/Sirius/Lily," Everyone agreed.
