Hmm brilliant Full Moon tonight... How fun for me. I do find it weird that Fred avoided my question... I guess I'll ask him later.

Anyway everyone was out in the early evening enjoying the still warm early evening sun, so the common room was empty except for us four. I was sitting on a chair round the table trying to concentrate on an essay for Umbridge that father insisted I do... Trust father to make me write the bloody essay for the bitch.

Suddenly Hermione caught my eye and she was pacing... She never paces. I lay down my quill and flexed my fingers to rid the pain that was building from holding my quill to tightly.

"That foul, evil, old gargoyle. We're not learning how to defend ourselves. We're not learning how to pass our OWLs. She's taking over the entire school."

She's right there. Ron nodded in agreement and the little radio was turned up by Harry. I was intrigued to see what the Minster has to say...

"Security has been and will remain
the Ministry's top priority. Furthermore, we have convincing evidence that these disappearances are the work… of notorious mass murderer Sirius Black."

"What utter Bullshit!" I growled and slammed my fists on the table. Suddenly in the fire... A form came in the flames.

"Harry!"

"Sirius..."

What on earth? I got up and we gathered round the fire. What was he doing here?

"What are you doing here?" Harry asked and I sighed.

"Answering your letter... You said you were worried about Umbridge. What's she doing? Training you to kill Half-Breeds?"

"She's not letting us use magic at all." we all said together into the fire. Bloody hell if someone walked in they'd probably think us insane. Anyway the conversation pressed on.

"She's not letting us use magic at all."

"Well, I'm not surprised. The latest intelligence is that Fudge doesn't want you trained in combat." Sirius replied. I laughed slightly and everyone looked at me. I went a bit red and blamed the heat of the fire.

"What does he think, we're forming some sort of wizard army?" Ron said, a smile on his face as if to say he was joking. To be honest I think building an army would be ace!

"That's exactly what he Dumbledore is assembling his own forces to take on the Ministry. He's becoming more paranoid by the minute."

Well this is more serious then we were laying on... Looks like we are going to have a bigger job on our hands. Sirius then began again. Please be better news...

"The others wouldn't want me
telling you this, you four, especially your father Charlie… but things aren't going at all well with the Order."

Brilliant... Worse news than before... But that wasn't all of it...

"Fudge is blocking the truth at every turn… and these disappearances are just how it started before..."

My heart started racing... This isn't good at all... Please finish with,

But the good news is...

Please?

"Voldemort is on the move."

Fine then don't end the way I wanted you to...

"Well, what can we do?" Harry asked and then sounds of footsteps came into my ears and Sirius heard them too. He shushed us and said,

"Someone's coming. I'm sorry I can't be of more help. But for now, at least, it looks like you're on your own."

I looked out of the window and realised it started raining... Yay I have to walk in the rain and freeze in the Shack until the fucking moon rises. We all shared a look of concern. We all stood up and Hermione walked to the window. She let out a shaky breath and began.

"He's really out there isn't he?"

Harry nodded and I looked at my feet as my fingers started tingling.

"We've got to be able to defend ourselves. And if Umbridge refuses to teach us how, we need someone who will." Hermione said and looked dead into Harry's eyes... Don't push him to. I know I'm sounding like I don't want to be taught but I mean he has shit loads of stuff on his mind. He doesn't need another thing to add onto his list.

"Harry..."

His eyes went wide and I could feel the tingling run up my arms. I shook just like that night we found Sirius.

"Guys... I have... I have to go."

And before anyone could answer I made a run for it hoping I would get to the Shack in time.


As I ran through the dull and empty corridors I was getting increasingly scared. I won't have time... I won't have time to get to the Shack. I ignored the fact Umbridge was walking the corridors and Filch as well.

I burst threw the doors and ran straight for the Forest. I went as deep as I could in the light I had. I pulled off my cloak and hid it in a tree. As long as I have that to get back into school with that'll be fine.

As predicted, my transformation took place before I could fully strip of my clothes. I screamed in pain, as my hands and feet changed first. Legs and arms next. Spine snapping into place... Hair covering my body... Eyes parted and the colours blurring in front of me.

When I'd fully transformed the pain left yet I still whimpered occasionally. I will be fine in here. I've had the Potion all week and today so... I needn't worry.

I looked around at my surroundings and down at my hideous form. I landed on four paws and walked deeper into the forest. The centaurs were rather angry and frisky now adays... They're Half-Breeds of course because they're half human, half horse.

Not a great look but who am I to judge... I turn into a hideous beast every month.

I involuntarily let out a thundering, painful howl. I guess I'm just lonely...


Fred's POV...

Another sleepless night. I just wish I could help in some way... Make her feel less... Lonely. I just want to hold her. As for the question of her biting me... I didn't want to say I hadn't thought about it... Because I have. I do worry that maybe one day she would but... She can't help it...

"Fred mate you can't stay awake every night there's a Full Moon." came George's voice.

"I can't sleep when I know she's scared, lonely and tearing herself apart out there... Plus I don't know where she is."

"Um she'd be somewhere confined..."

Howd he know? Harry told me she left late last night... What if she didn't make it to the Shack? What if she'd narrowly missed it. I'll go and find her in the morning.

"I'll find you..." I said in barely a whisper. I got up from the window sill and climbed into bed. I pulled the curtains round my bed and curled in a ball.

She'll be fine.


So two days had passed and we were meeting with Hermione, Harry, Ron and Charlie about something. Also I did go to find Charlie. She was fine but she went into the forest. When I found her though she was half way up the hill back to school. She was curled up in a cloak.

I took her to Pomfrey of course but the whole day I missed classes.

Who cares? Only bloody Umbridge...


Yes so back to today. I heavy load of snow had fallen and it was bloody freezing out. We were all sitting awaiting the four people who'd arranged this.

I was freezing and finally they turned up. Everyone seemed pissed to see Harry but really us Weasley's believe in him all the way. The silence was terrible and I cast a glance at Charlie. She looked terrible, I mean worse than the morning I found her. She was really wrapped up.

"Um Hi."

"So you all know why we're here. We need a teacher."

"A proper teacher."

Of course we need a proper teacher. Bloody toad face refuses to teach us anything. She says schools about learning... But you can't learn if your not taught... Most of the time.

"Why?"

"Why? Because You-Know-Who's back you tosspot..."

Typical Ron... I brief smile ghosted my lips and Charlie was silently laughing in her seat. Ron does come up with strange things like all of the time... It's what he's good at. The conversation went on and Harry was becoming more angry with people trying to get Cedric's death out of him.

People should accept its difficult for him... Stupid buggers...

Harry was about to leave when Luna piped up.

"Is it true you can produce a Patronus Charm?"

I saw Charlie smile. She nodded briefly and Hermione spoke up again.

"Yes, I've seen it."

Everyone now seemed intrigued and the room filled with hushed chatter and excited answers to Hermione.

"Blimey, Harry. I didn't know you could do that."

"And he killed a basilisk, with the sword in Dumbledore's office." Neville said.

"It's true!"

"Third year, he fought off about a hundred Dementors at once." Ron said obviously proud of Harry.

"And last year, he really did fight off You-Know-Who in the flesh."

Harry looked shocked and he said,

"Wait!"

He can't deny any of that now...


Charlie's POV...

I knew this was a bad idea. Harry's feeling incredibly overwhelmed from all the questions and people praising him. He's never felt this way before. He never got to feel excitement when he'd done something good... Something brave. He never got praised for doing something good... Something brave. Plus I've caught a fucking cold...

When Harry caught his own breath he started talking again catching everyone's attention.

"Look, it all sounds great when you say it like that… but the truth is, most of that was just luck. I didn't know what I was doing half the time. I nearly always had help."

Fuck off Harry! Your a brave child. Father told him that he was wise to fear... Fear it's self. He's scares... His whole life has been taken over now trying to get across the Voldemort is back... He has school work to do... He now has all of us to deal with. He's not a teenager any more... That's been taken from him... It had been since the day he was given to his Aunt and Uncle...

Ugh my head was thumping. How I got I'll so quickly I'll never know. Hermione then spoke up again. This woman never shuts her fucking gob.

"He's just being modest."

"No Hermione I'm not."

His voice was becoming more serious by the minute and with every sentence he was saying. Poor Harry. I got up and moved next to Fred so I could maybe get warmer. He pulled me into him and I leaned into the warmth listening to Harry's every word.

"Facing this stuff in real life is not like school. In school, if you make a mistake, you can just try again tomorrow."

He seemed to stop and pull in a shaky breath before carrying on.

"But out there… when you're a second away from being murdered… or watching a friend die right before your eyes… You don't know what that's like."

He's right we don't. That why he's the best teacher for us.

"You're right, Harry, we don't." I said quietly and Hermione finished for me. Thank God for that I sound like I've swallowed a fucking frog. I sound terrible.

"That's why we need your help. Because if we're going have any chance at beating... Voldemort." Hermione started and a small blonde boy said in a shaky voice,

"He's really back?"

Harry nodded and I was about to say something that isn't appropriate for a kid of his age to here.

After a while we all signed our names down for the thing. It will be great fun. Once everyone had made their way back to school we followed behind. Fred had a hold of my hand and we all wore smiles. Yes folks even me.

"Right. First we need to find a place to practice…"

"The Shrieking Shack?" asked Ginny and I tensed. Not there!

"No... To small."

I breathed a sigh of relief. Thank you Harry...

"Forbidden Forest?"

"Not bloody likely!" Ron said with a highish voice. I laughed even though it sounded really funny. Fred laughed along with me... Or it was at me... Didn't really care which it was.

"Harry, what happens if Umbridge does find out?"

Who gives a fucking shit about her? If she finds out that's not going to change anything...

"Who cares?"

My eyes went wide. Did Hermione Granger actually just say that? I looked at Fred and he looked at me.

"Did she just say that?" I asked quietly and he smiled.

"Yeah... I was shocked myself."

Us three started laughing. She's crazy and I'll never understand her but she's a friend... No actually scrap that... She's a best friend and that's all that matters.

"I mean, it's sort of exciting, isn't it, breaking the rules?"

"If you don't do it all the time..." Fred and George said under their breath. That's vey true but this is bloody Hermione Granger we are talking about here.

"Who are you and what have you done with Hermione?" Ron asked with a smile. She brushed her hair back, and smiled across at Harry.

"Anyway, at least we know one positive thing that came from today."

"What's that?" Harry asked and I was just as confused. OH! I'm not confused haha I know what she's talking about now.

"Cho couldn't take her eyes off you, could she?"

I caught the slight red blush sneak into his cheeks. Ha I love that finally she realises she liked him. Even though Cedric and her were... Yeah I won't talk about that. Plus I'd rather not remember him... I know that sounds mean but I hardly knew him and he hit on me all the time.

I am not saying I do not feel sorry for his family... Or Harry... Or Cho... Or everyone else because I do...


Neville found the Room of Requirement. Now we have a place to practice.

Let this show begin...
