A/N: All right I hope this one came out a little quicker but you will have to wait even shorter time for the next one. I'm trying to be more dedicated to updating this. Also I think this one was a little bit longer. I hope you like! Please Review!!

Thank You's:

Moonlight: Thank you for your review. I really appreciate the input. Please keep reviewing.

RockKing69: I'm not sure what's going to happen to Malfoy. I do know that Voldermort gave Wormtail a fake arm because he lost his helping Voldermort, and I don't think that Voldie will be too happy that Malfoy had Harry Potter in his grasp and let him slip away. Maybe there will be a little punishment in store for Malfoy in later chapters? Thanks for the review.

WolfMoon: Thanks for the review. I am almost done with Year Five of your story and IT IS GREAT! Everyone should read it! Keep reviewing and I look forward to hearing from you again to know what you think about this.

Blank:  I thought the arm getting cut off was a nice touch too. Thanks for the review. If you leave your e-mail I can e-mail you when new chapters come out.  

Harry POTTER AND THE RETURN OF THE DARK LORD

All day long reporters had been trying to find a way into Hogworts to ask Dumbledore questions. Ministry Law Enforces were sent out to Private Drive when a reporter cursed Vernon Dursley after punched him in the face. The curse was reversed, all the Dursley's memory's were modified, and the reporters were told to stay away from them. The bad thing was that now everyone knew Harry was not with his aunt and uncle. Not that Voldermort could hurt Harry while he was in Gordic's Hollow but all his friends were worried about where he had been this summer. "That's the last of them. Severus went out to speak to them and I don't know what he said but they all left." Dumbledore spoke to the order.

" Always such a cheery man." Sirius remarked quietly.

"What's happened to Malfoy, sir?" Harry asked.

"He used an unforgivable curse on a human. He is serving a lifetime sentence in Azkaban." Dumbledore answered. This brought a smile to Harry's face. That is until Moody let his opinion be heard.

"He'll be out by then end of the week. The dementor's know who Voldermorts supporters are. They won't go near him. And they are leaving Azkaban by the end of this week. It's barley a punishment to him."

"I'm afraid Alstor's right." Dumbledore spoke answering the questioning looks Moody was getting from people around him. "However we are gaining support. It won't be long before the Ministry is on our side. For now we are doing all we can." Dumbledore said. "This is the end of the meeting, you may all go home." Patrick, Sirius, Remus, and Harry were all asked to stay after again. "What a said before about us leaving soon was wrong. I shouldn't have said it. None of us are ready. Patrick, I believe we should make a trip to your village for a bit of training before we go. Which won't be at least until Christmas break." All but Dumbledore and Patrick looked confused. Patrick just shook his head. "Now the extra support I was talking about was the APA." Dumbledore began but Harry interrupted.

"What's the APA sir?" Harry asked.

"The Auror Protection Agency. They are the best protection the Wizardry World has to offer. They work separately from the other Auror's and from the Ministry, therefore they can put their services wherever they believe they are needed most. After everyone knows they are on our side, the Auror's will want to come, and if the Auror's threaten to separate themselves from the Ministry, the Ministry will have no choice but to come to our side. Now some of the agents will be coming strait into battle with us but most of them will just be involved in protection because that is what they are best at. They will be protecting the order's family's, the Hogworts grounds, Diagon Alley, and some other places. Now Harry, there will be five agents assigned just to you. They will follow you everywhere once school starts. I ask you not to give them any trouble. They will not interfere with your social life, I have their word on that. But if they believe you are in any personal danger, they will step in." Dumbledore explained.

"Harry trust me these people know what their doing. They are the best." Sirius said with a smile. "I should know, I was one after all. James was too."  Harry smiled at this. He liked to know anything about his parents, he would have to remember to ask Sirius about some other stories.

"I didn't want to do this to you Harry, but what happened in Diagon Alley showed me that you are in danger. If Patrick had been a second later who knows where you would be right now."

"It's ok, sir, I understand." Harry told Dumbledore. He certainly didn't like it at all, but he knew Dumbledore was only doing what was best.

"That's all for now. You will meet your agents sometime next week Harry. But they will not follow you around until the school year starts." Dumbledore finished up the meeting with that.

"Sir?" Harry began.

"Don't call me that when we're not in school Harry. It makes me feel even older than I am."

"Um, ok professor-" Harry started again.

"You can call me Albus, Harry." Dumbledore told him. Everyone in the room gave me a little laugh.

"Ok. Well how about everyone comes back to my house for diner. I want to hear some stories." Early that day Harry and Dumbledore decided it was best if Sirius, Remus, and Patrick were allowed to come back and forth to his castle too. Since they would all be working on that project together and they would probably spend many late nights what they really started to prepare for it. So they all went back to Harry's house were dinner was waiting for them. The house elves cooked a very big chicken with mashed potatoes and stuffing on the side. Sirius and Remus told stories about the old days, with a little help from Dumbledore about how the Marauder's were from the teachers point of view. All of them were laughing for a very long time until everything got serious when Harry asked a question about Patrick. Harry had noticed that Patrick was about Remus and Sirius's age and didn't know why he wasn't telling stories of his days at Hogworts too. The second the question came out of Harry's mouth everyone stopped laughing.

"Well I guess none of you know the true story of me. Although Albus knows it slightly more than the rest of you. No one in the order knows my real story. But I guess you guys will have to find out so I should just tell you now." Dumbledore shook his head encouragingly at Patrick. "You see, I didn't go to Hogworts."

"Well what school did you go to?" Harry asked.

"I didn't go to any magical school Harry. I didn't go to a school for witchcraft and wizardry because I am not a wizard. I am a Knight."

"Like from the Middle Ages?" Harry asked.

"Sort of. But not really. Not many wizards know about the Knights anymore, but once Knights and wizards lived together. Knights were not magical so after a while wizards began to look down on them. There was a group much like the Death Eaters that thought that Knights were not fit to live with wizards because they were not magical. They thought we were the same as muggles. But we weren't. We lived side by side with wizards until this group forced us into exile. We hid in small villages. Soon we became completely separated from wizards and we drifted completely out of their memory. Your average wizard would not be able to tell you about knights if you asked them now. But we are very different than muggles. We did not want to live the muggles and the wizards did not want us to live with them so we stayed to ourselves. We did not advance like the muggles. Knights still live the same lifestyle as the did in the Middle Ages. We live in villages separated from muggles and wizards. We are our own people."

"But you said you guys weren't magical. But I saw you pull your wand and do spells on Malfoy." Harry interrupted.

"Ah, and there you are right. You see, I'm not your average Knight. I am the true king of all the Knights in Ireland. Ireland and were most Knights live."

"Then what are you doing here if you are their king?" Harry asked again.

"Well I guess my story begins when Voldermort last came to power. Somehow he learned about the Knights and thought we would be a valuable ally. You see Harry, even though we don't know magic we can do a lot of things in battle that wizards can't. We use the cross bow, the bow and arrow, and as you saw me use, the sword better than any wizard you can find anywhere. Now you may not think that is very useful, but with three arrows I could cut both a dragons wings so it couldn't fly after me, and I could put one in its throat so that it couldn't breath fire. Now if you can find a wizard who can do that, I would like to see him. Many other magical beasts that can not be harmed with magic I could kill with no problem. Another example is that I could kill, not just fend off with a spell, but kill a dementor with my arrows or my sword. Voldermort thought this was useful and went to my father. My father at the time was the king of the Irish Knights. He of course refused to help Voldermort so Voldermort thought that if he kidnapped me that it would change my father's mind. He kidnapped me when I was eight years old.  For seven years after that he tortured me everyday, telling me to convince my father to join his side. For seven years I refused him every day. The torturing became worse and worse until I couldn't handle it anymore. When Death Eaters got bored they would come in and torture me. Finally I got a hold of Death Eaters sword once when most of them were gone at some attack. I was fifteen years old that night, I had not yet started my training before I was kidnapped, but since I was the heir of the king of the Knights it was in my blood to know how to use weapons. I was a natural warrior. Once I got a hold of the sword I escaped. I killed seventeen Death Eaters that night. That is why Voldermort hates me so much. I heard that a man named Albus Dumbledore was beginning to start a revolt against Voldermort so I found him. I told Dumbledore my story and he knew parts of the history of the Knights even better than I did. Apparently the heir's to the throne of the knights were able to learn magic. It had been hundreds of years since a Knight king had learned magic because we were separated from wizards and therefore my ancestors must have forgotten that little fact."

"Once you escaped how come you didn't go back to the Knights?" Sirius asked.

"I didn't know how to get there. And besides, I had such hatred in my heart that I wanted nothing more to kill Voldermort and his Death Eaters for the pain they put me through." Patrick answered.

"Why didn't you go back to them after Voldermort's first fall?" Remus asked.

"By then they thought I was dead. And besides, if they knew I was alive they would have thought I was a trader for slipping into the wizardry world. So that's it. That's why I didn't go to a magical school, that's why I drew my sword first against Malfoy, it's in my blood to be more comfortable with a sword. And now, sometime this year, I am supposed to go back to my kingdom and get you guys the training that any Knight would get. Because you will need. Voldermort is going to use many magical animals in this war and lots of them won't be affected by magic. But I will tell you again Albus, it's not going to be as easy to walk in there and get the training as you think it will be. They won't accept me."

"That will be something for another day to worry about. What's this?" An owl flew over to Dumbledore and dropped a letter into his plate. "It's from Severus, he said he has urgent news for us." Dumbledore look confused. "Follow me. Sirius, touch that ring." Earlier that day Sirius gave all of the Order the rings. It had an extra add on, it could tell if it was really urgent like an attack, or if it was just an important meeting. Sirius activated his ring and they all walked to the appiration wards, into Dumbledore's office, and into the order room. In a couple minuets all of the order were there and a beaten looking Snape stood up.

A/N: Well that was my sorry excuse for a cliffhanger. How does everyone like it? Please review!
