Order of the Phoenix
Chapter Seven
The next few weeks went by quickly, Ginny and Harry were soon becoming almost inseparable. On this particular morning, Dumbledore announced the date of the Yule Ball. It would be December 6th, and he kindly reminded them all that only those of the fourth year and higher could attend, unless they were attending with an older student. Parvati, Ginny and Hermione decided that when they went to Hogsmeade this weekend they would take off separately from the boys, and get some things for the Yule Ball.
After breakfast Hermione, Parvati and Ginny took off, giggling the entire way. Neville asked Parvati to the Yule Ball, so Neville tagged along with Ron and Harry while they were out. Harry wanted to make sure that he finished his Christmas shopping early this year, and he wasn't sure if this would be his only outing without his godfather, so he made sure to get Sirius his present. He picked out a new robe so that Sirius wouldn't have to keep wearing the ones he had been in Azkaban. Just as they were about to go into the sweet shop when they heard a very familiar voice behind them, "Fancy meeting you here, Potter."
There stood Draco Malfoy. Harry couldn't believe his eyes. "What do you want," Ron said looking impatient, "we haven't got all day Malfoy."
"Just thought I would say hello, I'm sure you remember Pansy Parkinson, my girlfriend."
They all nodded and said hi to Pansy, and caught a glimpse of Parvati, Ginny and Hermione running up the street to see what they were doing talking to Draco of all people. Harry was starting to lose his patience, "Is there anything else Malfoy? Or have you gone soft since your fathers capture?"
Malfoy turned bright red, grabbed Pansy's hand and stormed down the street, running into the girls on his way. "Out of my way Mudblood! And as for you, Weasley, I'd watch Potter if I were you tell him to choose his enemies wiser next time. If there is a next time for him," and with that all anyone heard was Ginny's fist meeting Malfoy's face.
Harry had never seen Ginny get so mad at someone before, he stood there in complete shock as Pansy fussed over Malfoy taking him slowly back to Hogwarts so Madam Pomfrey could look at his nose.
Ginny ran up to Harry and almost flew into his arms and kissed him on the cheek, "What was Malfoy talking about, are you alright?"
"Yeah I'm alright Ginny, don't worry so much. Malfoy's nothing compared to you-know-who," Harry was turning bright red over Ginny sticking up for him.
"Too bad Moody wasn't here, would've been fun to see the amazing bouncing ferret again but seeing Malfoy taken down by a girl a year younger than him was just as good," Ron sounded disappointed but everyone else couldn't help but laugh.
They all decided to keep shopping and meet up at Hogwarts at dinnertime, Ginny kissed Harry before they went their separate ways, which made everyone "ooh", and "aww". Ron wanted to get Hermione something special for Christmas, and there was a new store that had jewelry and hairpieces and everything a witch could want. Neville, Harry and Ron looked around to make sure no one saw them and sneaked inside the store. Ron quickly picked out a small locket for Hermione.
Harry bought Ginny a mirror that had been enchanted to show whatever the owner asked it to. Neville bought a flower that had been enchanted to never wilt for Parvati to put in her hair. Harry bout Mrs. Weasley a locket with the Gryffindor symbol on it, and had the picture inside enchanted to show her pictures of all of her children, Harry and Hermione, as a thank you for everything that she had done for Harry this past summer. They rushed back to Hogwarts so they would have time to hide the gifts they'd bought on their way.
At dinner Ginny, Hermione and Parvati giggled nonstop through dinner. Harry was starting to wonder just what they were laughing about. He figured he would get it out of Ginny later on. After dinner everyone went separate ways, Ginny and Harry went for a walk around the school grounds while Hermione and Ron headed off for the library. Neville and Parvati ran off to the common room with everyone else to talk about the day.
The weeks passed slowly in-between then and the Yule Ball, but the morning before the Yule Ball everyone was buzzing around talking about plans for the Ball, and who was going with whom. Soon it was time to get going to class, Harry and Ginny walked off hand in hand. Hermione and Ron walked close, smiling at each other and laughing their way down the hall behind Harry and Ginny. Neville and Parvati flirted like crazy behind them.
Harry kissed Ginny quickly before she ran into her classroom, as the rest headed on to Potions class with Professor Cauldwell. She was Dumbledore's daughter, and her grandson, Owen, was just in his second year at Hogwarts. When they walked into the classroom, she looked paler than usual and told Harry to go to Dumbledore at once. He didn't know what it was about, but he walked quickly fearing the worst.
On his way there he bumped into Lisa Turpin, who was in Ravenclaw. She was headed to see Dumbledore too, he hadn't talked to her before at school except in classes they'd had, which weren't many. When they got there they saw Owen Cauldwell sitting waiting for them with Dumbledore.
Dumbledore smiled and asked them to sit down. "Now that we're all here, I know what I'm going to say is going to come as a shock, though less of one for Harry, so I'll just say it and than I'll explain. You three are the Heirs of your houses. Now Harry your family knew that you were the new Heir when you were born, but the Turpins and the Cauldwells have no idea that they're even related to Ravenclaw or Hufflepuff. The reason I'm telling you is because it is the first time all three Heirs have been at Hogwarts at the same time, and I'd finally finished sorting through the family lines and figured out the Cauldwells held the Heir. For a while I thought it was the Diggorys.
"As Harry knows, I am a member of the Order of the Phoenix, and we believe we've finally figured out how to bring Voldemort to an end. We'll need all of your help though. Harry's godfather has already given consent, Lisa and Owen your parents will be arriving the week after the Yule Ball to discuss options with myself and Harry's godfather. We'll be adding extra spells and charms to your list of things to learn this year Owen. Of course you're all invited to come to the meeting and none of you will be going to class today, you all need time to think about this."
"Is this why Professor Figg gave me that book with the letter from my mum and dad?" Harry didn't know why he was asking, he knew the answer was yes. The other two sat in shock, not knowing what to say.
"Yes Harry it is. The three of you will have to work together on this so I suggest you become friends, and quickly. Any wasted time means that Voldemort may win, and I don't intend to let that happen while I'm alive. Now to ensure that all of you are safe, Lisa the only other professor that knows you are the Heir of Ravenclaw is Professor Sprout. Owen your Grandmother knows you are the Heir, I suspect she's already told your parents as well. I want you all to be careful, if you need help go to the professor that knows you're the Heir or come to me.
"Harry unfortunately my staff has figured out that you're the Heir of Gryffindor, so you could go to anyone you trusted. If you notice ANYTHING out of the ordinary do not waste time, tell us immediately. I suspect that since I myself had to figure it out Owen, that you are in no grave danger just yet but be careful just the same. Well, go back to your dormitories or talk quietly in the Library, your professors know that you won't be attending today. And try not to tell your friends unless you have to, the less people that know the better, especially for Owen."
None of them said anything, they left and went to the library where they sat in complete silence for the first class of the day. Hermione, Ron and Ginny came running into the library looking for Harry. They were followed by Neville and Parvati who were as usually flirting away and bringing up the rear of the group. Harry, Lisa and Owen decided to meet after dinner at Hagrids hut. They knew that since he was away on his mission for Dumbledore with the Giants that his house would be empty, and then they would be able to talk about it. Harry refused to tell any of them what it was about, and when they wouldn't back off, he said one word that made them all stop asking, "Voldemort."
