Chapter Twelve- Following
All of a sudden, Harry faced a door. It was a door full of mystery since the pictures beside the door seemed to ring a bell in his mind. Even so he went inside without knowing that he was being followed…
Ron decided to follow Harry and apologize for whatever reason unknown to him. He thought that the green eyed wizard was talking to him. He was a distance away from Harry to make sure he was unnoticed. He saw Harry open the door beside a portrait of a great wizard named Starra Amidala. She was the one that saved the world from an apocalypse that could have been caused by the founders' heirs.
"I'm sorry Harry but they were there. I'm not supposed to be seen by anybody. That was Merlin's condition." Ron heard the familiar voice of a man whose animagi form is a dog.
Harry POV
"Yeah, I know but did you really have to give me that great of a chill?" Harry asked.
"Sorry, I didn't mean that. I just forgot that-" Sirius stopped and turned invisible. Ron entered.
"Harry I'm sorry. Please don't be angry at me," Ron said.
"Why would I be angry at you?" Harry asked. Ron told the reason why. By the end Harry was laughing.
"Oh that, I wasn't angry at you. Promise, I'm not angry at you. I was angry because of-"
"Sirius?" Ron asked.
"No, OBLIVIATE! You don't know that Sirius was here in the castle," Harry said. He was sorry for having to do that to his friend but he just couldn't let him walk around saying that his godfather was a ghost. Even if he knew that if he'd ask Ron could keep it secret. It would just put Ron in trouble with Destiny and Fate.
"Harry why am I here?" Ron asked.
"We went here remember? You wanted to apologize to me for something that really wasn't your fault. Friends?" Harry offered a handshake. Ron accepted it, "Friends." They went back to the dormitory. Harry didn't care if his godfather followed him. For now he was angry with him for surprising him greatly then leaving him to deal with explanations by himself. They walked through the halls, past through classroom and then finally reached the Dormitory. They saw several students talking about the happenings. Harry doubt that the topic would die down anytime soon. Ginny and Hermione was sitting in the couch absently looking to the fire.
"Mione, d'you think that DA still got the money?" Harry asked.
"Why don't you try?" Hermione suggested. Dean, Parvati, Neville, Lavender, Colin, Dennis came nearer to them.
"Cool Harry! You can start it all over again and we could redefine its mission-vision. That is if we had one," Dean said. Harry got the Galleon out of his pocket and placed the time and date. He placed it as tonight at seven. It meant that the DA had an hour to finish dinner. It wasn't really a problem because with the sadness that enveloped the castle, student ate minimal amount of food. It was actually troubling Madame Pomfrey already. Their usual 'classroom' would be the Room of Requirement.
"Don't bother with your coins. I'd just tell you. It's tonight after dinner preferably at seven. Same place. We'd just talk about some things. Some are important though. Don't worry, you could doze off there and we'd just wake you up when we need you or when we're finished," Harry directed to nobody in particular. The group laughed. It was an eerie laugh with the silence in the common room. Harry was happy because it was the first time that he heard a laugh since the first day. He didn't mind if there were people who overheard since he was sure that someone from the staff would come and approach him and ask him if he could extend his group to the rest of the school. Sure enough before dinner started, the deputy headmistress called Harry to the headmaster's office.
"Mr. Potter, the headmaster wishes to see you."
"Thank you Professor," Harry said then turned to Ron, Ginny and Hermione. "Wait for me inside if I'm not back after dinner." Harry then left with his Head of House. McGonagall muttered the password and left telling Harry that she had some matters to attend to.
"Hi, Harry! I see we got ourselves into trouble yet again. Don't worry I know that James brought down the Potter's magnet for trouble," Albus greeted cheerfully. Harry marveled at his ability to be cheerful even with the trouble that they face.
"So do you have any idea why you are here?" Albus asked.
"Just an assumption," Harry said.
"Which is?"
"That you're going to talk about the DA." As Harry suspected he was correct. Albus first asked him to change the name. It was too vulgar. It would place them in a huge fiasco with the dark side if they continued to use that. Then he went to details. He wanted to do it like the dueling club that they had back in their second year with that Lockhart bloke teaching it. Harry was greatly nerved with this because Dumbledore was kind of like ordering him to submit to his 'demands.' He told Harry that they'd do it in the Great Hall. He also told him that there would be teachers to supervise.
"Fine. Even if I don't like it that way, I'd accept it. But with conditions too. One, no slytherins except second years and below. Two, only the DADA teacher, Professor Lupin, Hagrid and the Heads of House may overlook the meeting. You can come but only for the first lesson. Don't ask the reason. Third, it has to be voluntary not mandatory. Fourth, the location would be changed after the first meeting. Fifth, I would be the one to choose who teaches the lesson. You won't be able to force me to go out there by myself. Lastly, the schedule would also not be regular."
"Ok. Harry what are we going to call it?" Albus said meekly. He noticed the slight hint of anger in Harry's words. He wondered why.
"We're going to talk about it. Nothing else? Goodbye Professor," Harry left the room and walked to the Room of Requirement. He went in and saw the familiar faces. To say that Harry was furious would be an understatement. Their group was supposed to be a secret and led and directed by a student. Not supervised by a teacher! It was what made it effective. Having no teacher means that there was no pressure put on each student. That way a student learn more; but with Dumbledore's new 'requests' that wasn't possible. That was why he was tad bit angrier than usual when he went inside the RoR. The DA knew that he wasn't in a good mood that was why they tensed up.
"Good evening. Those of you who have no more interest in joining may leave and we won't hold it against you," Harry said. Marrieta, Cho, Zacharias Smith and Michael Corner and Anthony Goldstein left. [You know, you shouldn't take out your anger on your friends] someone whispered in his ear. Harry swiftly turned his head but saw no one. He somehow knew that it was Sirius.
"Anyone else? Now, I would like to make it clear to you that our purpose is to learn to be able to protect ourselves and to protect the other inhabitants of this castle. It was never to get back at that toad-looking-good-for-nothing-professor that had inhabited our castle last year. Because of Dumbledore's request, we need to-" Harry was suddenly stopped by the noise that the door made as someone entered.
Blinkgurl017: Thank you for youre review… it's really like this.. it's like there is Sirius in front of Harry and Ron behind Sirius… then Siri becomes invisible and because Harry was too emotional he snapped facing Sirius so he basically snapped at Ron… without him meaning to. Sorry if it wasn't well written… I was in a hurry to update and it's also because I don't have much time to spare. But I've finished a couple of chaps…Don't worry I wasn't offended or anything.. I just really didn't have the time… and I stopped asking my beta too… Because I'm using her time and it gives me much more work. If I had all the time then I would ask for a beta… but sadly I don't…
Volleypickle16: Thank you very very much.
TuxedoMac: Sorry… for the slip up with the school robes…sorry with the Riddle thing too. And no he isn't going to train in Merlin's realm… I think so… ugh I'm confusing this and the order of the founders… hehe never mind… just read on..Thanks for the review
Jenn: sorry… I'm just confused because most of the fanfics I've read says that he was seeker or something… the movie says too.. nevermind… just think of it as just a play… I mean, you could play center even if you're a forward when you're playing in an amateur game..something like that.
I'm really desperate. Soon, I might look for someone who would beta and update for me… hehe
