"Um...hmmm...er...a....sorry guys...it slipped," Ciara said blushing bright red.

"CIARA!" Remus shouted. "HOW? How do things slip? I swear your worse than Sirius at keeping secrets!"

"Hey, I am very good at keeping secrets!" Sirius exclaimed. "They just sometimes come out in a very creative way. Also she is worse than...no..wait...she's not worse than me. But, go on giving it to her."

Remus threw his hands up in defeat. "I can't believe you two! Ciara did you slip to anyone else, or Sirius maybe you told them in a creative way! Well, who else knows because of you two?"

Sirius stared at the ceiling and started whistling. Ciara looked at an imaginary watch. "Well," Ciara said. "Look at the time. Sirius and were just off to have some tea with Snape if you don't mind. So we must be off." She and Sirius both sprinted towards the door but Remus got the backs of their cloaks..

"Oh, no you two are not leaving until you tell me who else you blabbed to!" Remus shouted , taking out his wand and pinning them both against the wall.

"WHAT'S GOING ON?" Harry shouted. Everyone looked at him, they must have forgotten he was there.

"Harry...we....er...um." Sirius began.

"Well, we can't..I mean we could...but...it...not...well..no..yes..aaaa." Remus tried.

Ciara stepped forward and pushed Harry out the door. "Sorry kid, this is grown-up stuff. None of your business until further notice."

"But," Harry said.

"Sorry, your call can not be put through. Please dial again after the tone. For help press one, for assistance press two, for a one way ticket to St. Mungo's stay right where you are. If you don't wish to go to St. Mungo's I suggest you high tail you little boy butt back to the Common Room. Leave after the beep. BEEEEEEPPPP!" Ciara said in a sweet and sarcastic voice, she then proceeded to slamming the door in Harry's face. Leaving Harry dazed, he didn't even notice Draco Malfoy lurking behind him. The door was open a crack and Harry (and Draco) could see into the room.

Sirius and Remus were cracking up laughing. "Oh, god Ciara you still do that?" Remus said.

Sirius stopped laughing and added. "Woah, I remember when I first heard that. James and I found you and Remus kissing in this very room! You caught us said that, slammed the door in our faces and continued kissing. James and I stood there dazed for half an hour and then, practically, flew back to the Common Room. After that we were so freaked around you! Ah, the good old days."

"You swore that you would never say that until you were...oh..a..older than Dumbledore. Which is pretty darn old." Ciara said laughing.

"Yeah..I remember when.." Remus started. "HEY! Wait back to the real subject who else did you two tell? Spit it out now Sirius, you first."

"I..er..I..I told Rose, Kat, Mich, Jay-R, Cort, Diana, Ken, Kevin, Mary, John, Minas, Joe, Bruno, and..I think Nicole and Steven and Nick. Oh, and I forgot about Leo." Sirius muttered.

"SIRIUS! NONE OF THEM ARE IN THE ORDER! They are NOT supposed to know!" Ciara yelled.

"Look whos talking," Remus said.

"He told seventeen people and I told three! Minas, Nick, and Leo." Ciara said. "And that's the truth!"

"She's right! When I told them they said they already knew. But, they wouldn't tell how." Sirius added.

"Oh, god," Remus sighed as he sunk into a chair. "Did either of you have a good reason for telling these people?"

"Er...No none that I can think of," Sirius replied smiling.

Remus glared at him, and turned to Ciara. She stared talking, "Yes I did! You guys know Minas, he's my brother. He's on our side and we all know it! Seeing as he's why I'm friends with James I thought he deserved to know. Leo and Nick are twins as you both know so I told them together. They know all about how to detect dark arts, and are Aurors. They turned down Dumbledore about the Order at school because they were scared. They now want to get back in. I'm helping them get in, and I told them. Ha Ha Sirius." Ciara then proceeded to stick her tounge out at Sirius.

"Well, Ciara I do think those are good reasons..though..urg! You both know that NO ONE absolutely no one is supposed to know about James Potter being back from the dead..or...not so dead. Only members of the Order. That's what Dumbledore's orders were when I told him." Remus said back.

"What about Harry?" Sirius and Ciara said in unison.

"Dumbledore said when he's ready," Remus sadly replied.

"Oh, for heaven's sake Remus! No offense to Dumbledore but he is sometimes and old crack pot! His ideas are either too futuristic or too old fashioned! Harry hasn't ever even talked to his parents or barely really met them! He deserves to get to know James," Ciara shouted.

"You're right," Remus replied. "How do we tell him?"

"I first suggest we go help James in Somterson, then we all come back here and talk to Harry. Also we need to try and capture Lucias and Narcissa Malfoy if we can. Those were Dumbledore's orders to me. If you see either of them stun them, bind them, and apparate back to Hogsmead. Though give someone a signal you're leaving first." Sirius and Remus nodded.

Ciara went over to the fireplace, taking out her wand. She lit a fire, grabbed some Floo Powder, and threw it into the fire. "The address is Somterson Network. Have wands out ready and expect anything. Stick together and find James first. See you soon. Somterson Network," Ciara said as she jumped into the fire. Sirius and Remus followed.

Harry just sat down in the middle of the hallway stunned. Draco Malfoy also sat five feet away also stunned.

"POTTER MALFOY!" someone yelled. Both boys turned around to see Professor McGonagall coming towards them. "What are you doing out of your Common Rooms at this hour, and sitting in the middle of the hallway!"

Harry and Draco looked at each other still in shock. They were surprised to see the other one there an surprised about what they just heard. "Come with me, "McGonagall said stiffly. "It is three in the morning you two especially should be safe in bed. If someone else had found you!" She started walking towards her office. She opened the door and motioned for them to sit down. They did. "Stay here and don't move." Professor McGonagall turned around, walked out, and slammed the door behind her.

The two boys were left in akcward silence. "So," Draco said (A/N-I know everyone calls him Malfoy but Draco is a nicer way of saying his name. And I like him, so I'm being nice.) "Your old man's back from the dead, and no one's telling you."

"Yeah," Harry replied in an icy tone. "And both your folk are wanted by Aurors."

"I guess Black's innocent then, huh?" Draco asked, in a cool voice.

"Yeah, took you long enough to figure out." Harry said, giving Draco a smirk.

Draco just glared at Harry, who glared back. The two of them sat glaring at each other for...oh only about....two hours. They just sat there for two hours glaring at each other. They were going on to and a half hours when the door burst open and Remus ran inside followed by James.

"Minerva we need-" Remus started but stopped when he spotted the two boys. "Harry Draco what are you two doing here? Where's Professor McGonagall?"

"We don't know where she is. She found us in the hallway and brought us here. She said stay here and left. She hasn't been here for two and a half hours." Harry replied filling Remus in.

"Oh...well," Remus said looking at James and back to Harry. "Do either of you know where Dumbledore is?"

"No, why would we?" Draco said coldly.

Harry glared at Draco. "Why? What's going on? What happened?"

"Harry I'm sorry about not telling you about...about.." Remus seemed to be looking for the right words he kept looking at James and then back to Harry.

"It's ok," Harry shyly said. Of coarse it wasn't ok, but he didn't want to seem rude because obviously something big had happened. "I heard everything and understand. After Ciara slammed the door in my face I sortta stood there stunned for a while and heard. So did Malfoy. How did that little battle thing go?"

"Er...well," Remus was again looking for the right words. "We...we....we.." (A/N-Ha ha ha! Remus said weewee!)

"Harry when we went to the mission," James said, speaking to Harry for the first time Harry could remember. Harry tried to concentrate on the words his father was saying instead of just getting lost in the sound of his father's voice. "We were battling against Voldemort as well as the death eaters. There were few of us, not enough to watch each others backs."

James let out a huge sigh. "Sirius and Ciara were working together. They were attacked from behind and captured. Voldemort now has them, and he knows about me. He's usually not the type of person to hold off on the killing but...he wants me and...you..to surrender ourselves to save their lives." He said the last part very quietly.

Harry jumped up, "But we can't...and we have to...and then..We can't just surrender! But, we can't have them be killed because of us either. What can we do?"

James sat down on a desk. "If we surrender he'll kill us and them for the heck of it! Though if we don't they'll die for sure. I...I don't know what we can do."

"You should talk to Dumbledore." Draco suggested.

"Well, Malfoy you just had a GOOD idea. I guess miracles do happen," Harry said chuckling.

"Watch it Potter! And at least I'm making an effort to save YOUR friends." Draco retorted.

"Draco I know you want to save them as much as Harry does. Maybe even more," Remus said wisely.

"I...I...I." Draco stuttered. "I do not."

"You know you do like it or not! You want them both to come back alive." James said.

"Wha?" Harry asked. "Why would he even care?"

"Harry Ciara is his cousin. Narcissa is Draco's mother. Narcissa had a brother, Nathan. Nathan Tate, he married Haley. Nathan and Haley are Ciara's parents. So, she's Draco's cousin. As much as he hates to admit it he does care about her. She was with him through his childhood and hard times. Even though he hides it they're both very close," Remus answered.

Harry was stunned, could Malfoy, the Draco Malfoy actually care about someone? Draco lowered his head and blushed a little. Yes, I suppose Harry answered himself.

"Well, then," Draco said finally recovering. "Let's think of a plan."

*******************

~**OH A FLASHBACK TO THE BATTLE**~

Ciara, Sirius, and Remus seemed to spring right out of the ground in the middle of a battle field. Remus spotted James right away and ran to his side. Dodging curses this way and that. "SIRIUS WATCH YOUR BACK," Ciara yelled.

Sirius turned to see a death eater behind him, he stunned the death eater and tried to get others. Sirius glanced at Ciara for a split moment. She was...well...amazing. She dodged curses with such an ease it looked like she wasn't even trying. She also could fire curses faster than a thousand Firebolts combined into one. It looked like she wasn't even speaking.

Sirius paid of his moment of staring at her. He was hit with a powerful Cruciatus Curse. Sirius screamed loudly, Ciara turned and ran over to him. She knocked into him, purposely, and they both fell into some bushes. Sirius sighed as the curse left him.

"Thanks kid," Sirius said. Ciara nodded, instead of talk. That's how she was during battles, she never talked or showed her pain. Sirius had to admit she was stronger than him. Ciara lifted him up, and motioned that they should go help. Sirius nodded.

Before either of them could move a drawling male voice said, "Stupefy." Ciara whipped around as Sirius fell to the ground. She help her wand before her. But, before she could do anything she was knocked out by something hard hitting her head. Two death eaters came out of the shadows.

"I shall tell our Lord, you take them to our dungeons," a female voice said. She turned around and walked towards the battle. The other death eater waved his wand at Sirius and Ciara. The two of them disappeared, and the man apparated away.

~**END FLASHBACK FROM BATTLE**~


*******************

~**TO THE PRESENT WHERE CIARA AND SIRIUS ARE**~

Sirius slowly opened his eyes. At first he thought he was in Azkaban, but he noticed there was no coldness that the dementors had around them. He noticed his arms were bound in chains on the wall, as were his feet. He looked up and saw Ciara across from him, bound in the same way. At least they weren't gagged, that way they could talk to each other.

Ciara's head lifted up and looked at him through her ocean blue eyes. "Hey Sirius. You hurt, are you ok?"

"Fine, I'm fine," Sirius replied. "You?"

"My head hurts like heck. We're trapped at the Malfoy's place. To think my own family is holding me captive," Ciara said laughing a little. "I only hope Draco's here or will be here to help us."

"Will he? From what Harry's told me he's a little (Sirius said something SO bad Ciara looked like she could kill him)."

"I know Draco. He's only like that because of that Lucias," Ciara spat out Lucias. "I know him, I've been with him since his birth. I've been more of a family to him than Lucias or Narcissa. I love that little boy, and he loves me back. If he knows we're here he'll help. I know he will. He has too."

Sirius nodded, he just hoped everyone else was ok. He didn't know Ciara, James, Remus, Draco, and Harry were all hoping the same thing.
