CHAPTER 8
The day had come. They were going to leave at 5:30 pm. By now, the whole school knew. All of the students were talking about it. The first years were always gawking at the sixth and seventh years when they passed one in the halls. Hermione, Ron and Harry were thinking about what they would be facing later that night, when something dawned on them. They didn't know how they were going to follow without anyone noticing they were there! Dumbledore had said that they were going to use a port-key, but if they accidently bumped into anyone or the cloak got knocked of, they would be caught. They decided that they would have to be very careful and try to find a less crowded spot when they were waiting for the port-key to take them to Voldemort.
At 5:15, Ron and Harry went up to the dormitory to get the invisibility cloak while Hermione waited in the common room. When Harry and Ron returned, they found Hermione reviewing the spells that they were going to use in the battle that night.
Hermione put the cloak in her bookbag. They went down to the Great Hall. That was where the students were meeting. They slipped the cloak on just before they went into the room. They joined the group and listened to Professer Dumbledore's speech. The teachers that were going were the Defence Against Dark Arts teacher, Professer Carron, the Charms teacher, Professer Flitwick, the Care of Magical Creatures teacher, Hagrid and Professer Dumbledore, the Headmaster of Hogwarts. Hagrid was going to his own port-key, as he was bringing a couple of crates of different dangerous mnagical creatures. Harry had encountered some of Hagrid's creatures the year before. They were scary enough. Harry was pretty sure there were some new ones that he hadn't met before too.
They took the magical carriages to the port key. It was by the Forbidden Forest. Lucky for Harry, Hermione and Ron because they had to walk! They couldn't go in a carriage because they would have bumped into someone!
