Author Notes: First I'd like to thank you for choosing to read or just skim
through my fan fiction. This story will be a very short and to the point.
It's just suppose to setup everything for the story I've been writing
forever and finally decided to post. So, if you like this one and I really
hope you do, I will begin posting my painfully long story about Harry and
co. as soon as this story is completed.
Disclaimer: As much as I wish I could just wake up one morning and realize that I'm JK Rowling, I'm not and you'll obviously see that to be true due to my poor writing skills. So, this means I do not own anything that she has created like the original characters, things and places of Harry Potter. I also put some of the aspects of the movie in there, those don't belong to me either. But I do own the original characters I made up in this story and the plot.
Setting: This story begins at the end of Harry's 5th year. I want to stay true to the books and since the fifth one is said to come out around June 2003 I can only guess what happens. So basically, all the old characters have returned due to Voldemort's 'rebirth' at the end of book four. Dumbledore has created The Order of the Phoenix, which is an organization of wizards who will stand together and fight Voldemort. Harry, Sirius Black, Remus Lupin, are but a few of the wizards who make up the Order BUT!! And this is a huge but, none of them really know who else is in it. Only Dumbledore knows everyone who makes up the order and I might bring that into play later in another story or write a prequel to this one, it's all really up in the air at the moment.
With all that in mind, (I'm really sorry, it is a bit much) please enjoy the story and don't forget to drop a review off when you leave!

Chapter One: Happy Ending
As Harry, Hermione and Ron packed their things in their trunks, they all felt a tinge of sadness. Harry most all. Another year gone, another very long and horrible summer holiday with the Dursleys awaited him. For this reason, Harry packed as slow as possible.
Hedwig suddenly flew into the open window and dropped a letter on Harry's bed before hopping into her brass cage. Harry's back was turned however as he gathered sweaters and he didn't notice the brown envelope with a neat string tied around it laying on his bed.
"Hello Hedwig." Harry said walking over to the cage and reaching his hand in to stroke her. She gave his fingers a nibble and rustled her feathers. "Are you ready to go back?" a hint of sadness in his voice.
"Don't worry Harry. I'll ask mum if you can stay with us for the summer. The house is going to be getting empty soon what with Fred and George moving out and all."
"That would be great Ron, really."
"Hey, what's that on your bed?" Ron said motioning toward the large four poster bed with his hands full of dirty shirts.
"Harry! Ron! You'll never guess what!" Hermione yelled as she barged into the room.
"You're not suppose to be in here! This is the guys room!" Neville gasped as he tried his best to close his trunk, which had things spilling out of it from all ends.
Hermione didn't seem to hear him as she practically skipped with joy over to where Harry and Ron stood. She had a brown letter in her hand and was waving it madly.
"Well, what is it, Hermione?" Harry asked rather curiously.
"I was in my room helping the others collect their things because I had done my packing last night and I was bored-"
"Spit it out already." Ron said impatiently.
She gave him an unappeased look before continuing. "Well, an owl flew in and dropped this letter off for me." She offered it to Harry.
"Dear Miss Granger," Harry began reading out loud. "Due to your exceptional academic record, Hogwarts is pleased to inform you that you have been excepted into the summer program that is offered here over the holiday. If you wish to take this opportunity and get a head start on next year's classes please bring this acceptance letter to my office immediately where further information and instructions will be given. Yours Sincerely, Minerva McGonagall, Deputy Headmistress."
"So you're going to spend your holiday here? Learning?" Ron said with a tone of skepticism.
"I haven't said yes just yet. I'd hate to miss this but I don't think my parents would like it if I was gone for the whole summer and then the next school year." Hermione took a seat on Harry's bed and noticed the forgotten letter. "Harry? What's this?"
"I don't know." Harry opened it and scanned it quietly. His eyes lit up immediately. "I can't believe it!"
"What is it Harry? Did you win a sweepstakes?" Ron said excitedly taking the letter from him.
"No, something much better."
"Hey wait, this is the same letter that Hermione got." Ron handed it back to Harry.
"Looks like I won't be seeing my Uncle Vernon, Aunt Petunia or Dudley for a long time." He said barely able to control himself.
"That's great Harry, but," Ron looked around at his stuff. "Where's my letter?"
Hermione and Harry glanced at each other. Neither of them knew what to say.
