A/N: Hello, guys, how are you? New chapter is ready :) I really wish that the Skiving Snackboxes would be real, there are too many people I could prank with them :) But, at least Calliope uses them to prank Umbridge :D But then, Harry has the vision with Sirius and Calliope, Lexi and Elaine decide to help.

Bellamort500- Thanks a lot :)

xXMizz Alec VolturiXx- Thank you :) Well, here's the next chapter

Gotta Dance 88- Yeah, that moment with Fred and George was great, both in the book and the movie. I hope you'll like the new chapter too

Disclaimer: Harry Potter doesn't belong to me

Calliope and Lexi had already made a plan about using the Skiving Snackboxes the twins had sent to the first. They didn't say anything to the others, because they didn't want to involve them…yet. Besides, Calliope wanted more than anything to take her personal revenge and only Lexi was rebellious enough to fully agree. And so, the two seventh-years awaited the next Defense Against the Dark Arts class with impatience.

Umbridge came in, smiling like a little girl, as always, and ordered them to open their books and read the next chapter. After twenty minutes, Calliope made sure that the teacher wasn't looking towards them. With a smirk, she took two Fever Fudges from her bag and placed the one on Lexi's knee. Lexi smiled widely. They waited for a few seconds and then ate the sweets.

It worked immediately. Calliope felt her temperature becoming higher and higher and her face was covered in small boils. Lexi, next to her, was in the exact same situation.

'Professor!' Calliope exclaimed. 'Professor, Lexi and I have to go to the hospital wing at once. We're not well!'

Umbridge looked up and stared angrily at the two seventh-years.

'I am sure this is some inappropriate joke, Miss Bowden!' she hissed. 'I know very well that the Weasley twins were friend of yours and taught you their tricks'

'Are you serious, Professor?' Lexi pretended the surprised student. 'You don't believe us? But, look at us, we look awful!'

Their classmates were looking at them, all smiling and a few of them chuckling. Umbridge seemed more furious than ever.

'And, tell me, Miss Stone, what kind of sickness is this that fell over you and Miss Bowden, but not anyone else?'

'Haven't you heard about it? It's the Umbridge-itis, Professor' Lexi answered with such an innocent voice, that it would convince even Calliope.

'And it's not only the two of them!' a Ravenclaw shouted, with his nose bleeding. 'See, I have the Umbridge-itis as well!'

Suddenly, all students were having high fever and bleeding noses or they were vomiting and fainting. Obviously, they had understood that Lexi and Calliope had used Fever Fudges and had decided to use their own Skiving Snackboxes too.

'Enough!' Umbridge yelled. 'I will not tolerate this! You are all under detention, today, after dinner! And now get out of my sight!'

The seventh-years rushed out of the classroom. They made sure that they were in a safe distance from the headmistress's wraith and then ate the second half of their sweets, the one that was recovering them. Once they were all in perfect health again, they burst into laughter.

'Girls, that was brilliant!' a Hufflepuff patted Lexi's back. 'And what was that? The Umbridge-itis? That was the best! How did you think of it?'

'We should tell it the others!' Elaine chuckled. 'Every time someone uses those sweets, they should say that it's because of the Umbridge-itis decease!'

'She won't like it at all' Phoebe commented, but she was still smiling, holding her Puking Pastille. 'But who told her to make our lives here a misery and acting as if she owned the place? She has to learn that we won't accept her so quickly!'

Oliver was standing so close to her, that they were almost touching each other. She couldn't, she didn't want to move. It felt so right and she was tired of denying everything.

'I was waiting for you' he whispered, his one hand resting on her cheek and the other caressing her hair. Chills ran down her spine at the sound of his voice and at his soft touch. 'I was waiting for you for a long time'

'I'm here now' she whispered back, not wanting to speak loudly and destroy the moment. 'I'll never leave you. I was only so scared…'

'Don't' he told her, his lips brushing hers. 'Don't think about it anymore. It doesn't matter. The only thing that matters is that I love you'

She smiled and that was enough for him. He kissed her gently and she closed her eyes, forgetting everything. No one else existed right now, just the two of them.

Calliope rose on her bed, breathing with difficulty and tears burning in her eyes. The dream was so real, that she felt a huge wave of disappointment when she woke up. She buried her face in her hands, trying to calm down, but, instead, she started crying. At that moment, she heard steps on the floor.

Oh, great! Now Lexi will interrogate me!

'Callie?' that voice was much softer than Lexi's and Calliope realized that it belonged to Phoebe. 'Callie, are you okay?'

'No' Calliope mumbled, without rising her head. 'No, I'm not okay! I'm not okay at all'

'Shh' her classmate placed a hand on her shoulder. 'Relax and tell me what happened. It will help you, trust me'

'I…I…' Calliope couldn't control her sobs 'I dreamt about…about him'

'I see' Phoebe nodded, understanding her friend's feelings. 'Was it a nightmare?'

'No, no' Calliope replied, her head still hidden. 'It was…It was perfect, Phoebe, really perfect. But…But I'm so confused…I don't know what to do. And it's not only the distance I'm afraid about'

'What else is it?' asked Phoebe with concern.

'It's our friendship' Calliope admitted. 'What if Oliver and I start a relationship and it doesn't go well? We'll break up and then I'll say goodbye to the best friend I could have and that's something I won't endure'

'First of all, calm down' Phoebe rubbed her shoulder. 'You have to be calm in order to concentrate on your NEWTs, otherwise you won't fulfill your dream to become a Healer. And you will continue to see Oliver after Hogwarts and then you can decide what you'll do'

Calliope looked Phoebe in the eyes and the blonde girl saw the pain and the fear. Phoebe thought how brave Calliope was, much braver than she would ever be, but she was afraid of confessing her feelings to the one she loved.

Is that what love is? To make you feel happy and terrified at the same time? Or is it only because they're best friends?

'It won't work' Calliope said. 'I can almost predict that it won't work. Why would he like me as something more than a friend? He's a professional Quidditch player in one of the best teams and meets so many, interesting people every day and…'

'…and now you're ridiculous and you know it' Phoebe's voice was determined. 'You're a great girl, Callie, every guy would be happy to have you. Besides, do you forget how he would kiss you at the Yule Ball if you had allowed him to?'

'What if he meant it friendly, Bee? Like I pecked him before the Quidditch final'

'Listen, I don't know many things about love' Phoebe chuckled 'but, according to your description, it wouldn't exactly be a friendly kiss'

'I don't know, Phoebe. I don't know anything'' Calliope sighed. 'But I guess you're right. I'll see how things will be between us after I graduate and then…time will show'

Finally! Their NEWTs were over. Their last class was Defense Against the Dark Arts, during of which Calliope used many of the spells Harry had taught her. Umbridge was staring at her and Calliope would swear that she wanted to use the Killing Curse on her. This gave her even more strength and she was sure that she had achieved an Outstanding.

'So, girls' Harriet said to Lexi and Calliope, while they were eating dinner 'will we see you two at St. Mungo's?'

'I think so' Lexi smiled. 'I'm optimistic'

'Me too'

'And I'm very satisfied' Phoebe told them. 'Who knows? Maybe I'll manage to get a job at the Ministry'

'We'll need people like you in the Ministry, Phoebs' Lexi commented. 'Especially at these dark times'

Suddenly, Elaine rushed into the Great Hall, her expression terrified, as if she had encountered a Death Eater.

'Girls, something's wrong here. More than wrong. I saw the toad going outside with Harry and Hermione. She looked furious and the two of them…they looked…angry and scared. Oh, I bet something happened!'

'Come' Calliope stood up. 'We have to find out what the hell was wrong. Maybe we can still find them'

'I'll go to Umbridge's office, to check if anything's wrong' Elaine declared herself willing.

'And Harriet and I will stay here' Phoebe added. 'If Harry and Hermione are in trouble and you're gonna help them, you'll need a cover story. Harriet and I will find something, won't we?'

'Sure thing' Harriet agreed. 'Just be careful'

'Okay, Lex, let's go!' Calliope practically dragged Lexi outside.

What could only be wrong? What had Harry and Hermione done and why was Umbridge leading them outside? Calliope and Lexi ran out of the castle, but stopped when they spotted three figures walking towards the Forbidden Forest.

'Is she totally insane?' Lexi wondered. 'Does she have the slightest idea what lives in there?'

'Let's wait for a few seconds' Calliope suggested. 'We don't want Umbridge to discover us. But, I swear, if she tries to harm them…'

'…I'll personally hex her' Lexi finished the sentence, caressing her wand tenderly.

Umbridge and the two fifth-years disappeared into the forest and Lexi and Calliope quickly followed them. Calliope, despite being in her last year, had never entered it before, because she had heard rumors about werewolves, giant spiders and other monsters. But right now, her friends were in danger and urgent situations needed urgent changes. As she walked deeper into the forest, she felt her adrenaline increasing.

For some odd reason, they had no trouble to find their way, because Hermione was speaking unnaturally loudly. It was dark around them and the young girl's voice was reminding them of a ghost. Suddenly, they heard the sound of many hooves and Umbridge screaming out of her lungs. Calliope and Lexi started running towards the source of the sound, when they fell on Harry and Hermione.

'What are you doing here?' they all asked simultaneously.

'Elaine told us that Umbridge was taking you outside' Calliope started. 'We were worried about you and so we followed you. What the heck happened? Where's Umbridge?'

'Taken by centaurs' Hermione answered, breathing heavily.

'What?' Lexi laughed. 'I owe them a favor! Oh, why didn't we come earlier?'

'Lexi!' Calliope exclaimed angrily. 'Anyway, what's going on? Why are you here?'

'Look, girls' Harry started 'thanks for the concern, but it has nothing to do with you'

'Shut up!' Lexi cut him off. 'Harry, we believed in you from the first second! We joined Dumbledore's Army. We're practically waiting for news that will prove that the war ensued'

'You don't need to tell us details' Calliope comforted him. 'Only the general concept. But we want to help you'

'Harry' Hermione turned to her best friend 'we should trust them. You heard them, you don't have to say anything detailed. But you will need as much help as possible. Does anyone else know you're here, girls?'

'Phoebe, Elaine and Harriet' Calliope informed her. 'Phoebe and Harriet stayed behind, to find some cover story for us, and Elaine is checking Umbridge's office right now'

'Umbridge's office?' Harry repeated. 'Oh, no! Ginny, Luna, Ron and Neville are there, guarded by the Inquisitorial Squad'

'Why? What happened?'

'Okay, if you insist' Harry sighed. 'You-Know-Who has taken a person very dear to me in the Department of Mysteries, in the Ministry of Magic. I tried to communicate with him through the Floo Network in Umbridge's office, but she caught me. Hermione, to cover the truth, told her about some…some weapon we invented for Dumbledore and so we came here'

'Okay' Lexi nodded. 'I still don't understand how you know that this person is captive, but we promised to not ask for details'

'Thank you, Lexi' Hermione smiled at her. 'But, now, let's go to find the others!'

They ran back to the castle, but they met the others at the bridge. Elaine was with them, looking very satisfied.

'How did you get away?' Hermione wanted to know.

'Puking Pastilles' Ginny explained, smiling slyly. 'It wasn't pretty'

'Told them I was hungry, wanted some sweets' Ron told them, giving Harry and Hermione their wands back. 'Of course, they buggered off and ate the whole lot themselves'

'Their faces were priceless!' Elaine giggled. 'If Colin Creevey was there, I would beg him to take a picture'

'That was clever, Ron' Hermione complimented him and he smiled.

'It happens from time to time'

'It was brilliant!' Neville exclaimed. 'So, how are we getting to London?'

Calliope and Lexi exchanged looks with Elaine, who nodded slightly, meaning that she was basically informed about what was wrong and that she wanted to help. Harry, though, was still cautious.

'Look, it's not that I don't appreciate everything that you've done, all of you' he said while walking away 'but I've got you into enough trouble as it is'

'Here we go again' Lexi commented.

'Dumbledore's Army was supposed to be about doing something real' Neville was angry. 'Or was that all just words to you?'

'Maybe you don't have to do this all by yourself, mate' Ron added.

'Just deal with it' Calliope's eyes didn't leave Harry's. 'We want to help you, Harry!'

Harry looked from the one to the other. He wanted to disagree, but he knew that they were right and that he should accept their help. After all, as Neville had said, that was why Dumbledore's Army was founded.

'So, how are we going to get to London?' he waned to know.

That was something difficult and there was silence for a few seconds, but then Luna smiled.

'We fly, of course'

A/N: So, guys, another chapter has come to an end, hope you liked it. Be careful, because our next stop is the Department of Mysteries.
