A/N: I accidentally wrote Moody last chapter as one of the people in the group that hadn't returned. I'm sorry that was my mistake I was supposed to put Fleur. These are getting up faster right? Is everyone happy with the speed of them? Do you guys think the chapters are long enough? I've tried to make them longer. Well go read and review.
Thank You's:
Howling wolf: I'm glad you are reviewed and I'm glad you like it. Is this the first time you've read this story or just the first time you reviewed it? Well keep reviewing please I hope you like this one.
WolfMoon: Ah that's exactly what I thought. Lots of pranks. Any serious stuff? I'm sorry I haven't reviewed your story in a while I'll try to get to it soon I've been so busy. You do have some really good pranks and if I ever use one and forget to credit you just remind me and I will give you the credit you deserve. I hope this was continued soon enough for you.
Fairymagic689: Thank you I'm glad you like it. That's exactly what I thought, lots of pranks and serious stuff. Well this chapter was serious, but once we get to Hogworts the serious stuff will start. Thanks.
RJLL: Ahh you were almost right with your guess. I thought about Harry or Dumbledore getting caught but then changed my mind to this did you like it? I hope you did. Thanks for the reviews.
Harry Potter and the Return of the Dark Lord
"I need to use the bathroom. I'll be right back." Sirius said and left the group.
"He's taking this rather hard isn't he?" Patrick asked with sympathy. It was true, Sirius did seem to take this a little harder than everyone else.
"There is an interesting history between Sirius and Charlie Weasly." Remus began, and this perked the ears of all of he group (except Dumbledore who seems to know all the stories about everyone). "You see, Charlie wasn't always in charge of dragons. Back when Voldermort was in power last time Charlie decided he wanted to help."
"So he decided to join the APA." The man called Jimmy said. "I knew I knew him from somewhere. Chuck Weasly."
"Yes. And Sirius was sort of his mentor. Took him under his wing while Charlie was training. Well after Sirius was arrested everyone was shocked. Their first reaction was that they had to have the wrong man. But after a week or so they all just decided Sirius was fooling them. Everyone gave up on him." Remus said sadly.
"Except Chuck." Jimmy piped in again.
"That's right. Charlie tried to convince anyone who would listen Sirius didn't do it. But no one would listen. People began to think Charlie might be a Death Eater too. He was practically run out of Britain. That's why he moved to Romania and started working with dragons. He couldn't stay here. People were threatening to hurt him and his family."
"He doesn't seem very bitter around you guys." Harry interrupted.
"No. He forgave us, just like Sirius did. I'm afraid in times to come you will see the steaks Voldermort drives between friends. But when everyone has good intentions, it turns out all right." Dumbledore answered. Just them a very distraught looking Protection Auror came running towards the group.
"Albus, Jason, we tried to stop him. He wouldn't listen. He went out after the group. He said he couldn't leave him out there."
"Wait, wait, Steve relax. What are you talking about." Jason tried to calm the man down.
"Sirius. He went out after the group. He said if we waited any longer they'd all be gone." An audible curse was heard from where Remus once stood and he started to head for the door.
"No Remus! Sirius can take care of himself. We'll just have to wait and see how things play out." Jason yelled.
"Ya, we see how long you're willing to wait!" Remus yelled at Jason.
"Remus wait. Going out there will just be suicide." Dumbledore tried to reason with him.
"Oh but you'll let Sirius commit suicide." Remus answered back.
"If I knew where Sirius was going I would have stopped him. Now SIT DOWN!" Dumbledore boomed in a way that made everyone tremble. "Jason, come here." Dumbledore said and started walking. "Keep an eye on him." Dumbledore said to Hagrid as he walked past him to a side room. "All right I want a rescue team ready. Nothing big. Two of mine, two of yours. The smaller the group, the quicker they can move. My guys will know the second someone touches their ring. The group should be ready at all times. I want it made clear that no one else leaves this room unless one of us gives them permission. Go get your two guys, brief them, and come back here in five minutes." Jason turned to leave, "Jason, I need your best." Dumbledore said very seriously.
"Yes, sir." Jason answered.
"Patrick, Alastor." Dumbledore called as he stepped out of the room. Jason went off to go and get his two guys. "Moody did you hear about Sirius? Good." Moody had shaken his head yes. "Ok I know you two don't like each other and I don't care. Put your feelings for one another aside, work together, and get Sirius."
"Do we know he's been captured sir?" Moody asked.
"Take my word for it, if he's not with Voldermort now, he's dead. Now you will be working with two of Jason's guys. I don't expect them to find Sirius, I expect you two to do that. But they're the best at getting him out safe once you have found him. So trust them. Now Sirius didn't tell anyone this yet because he wasn't sure if it worked but he will try to warn you a special way through the ring that he needs to be rescued. It will flash red while it spins. While it's doing that, if you apperate it will take you to the closest place you can get to the ring without being seen by the enemy. Then it acts as sort of a compass. Take it off, put it in the palm of your hand, and it will point you towards Sirius."
"He's brilliant." Patrick muttered, amazed at what Sirius did to the rings.
"If he was so brilliant he wouldn't have went out there." Dumbledore said coolly. No one had seen Dumbledore act like this before. "Good luck. You can go and meet up with Jason's two guys.

(In Knockturn Ally)
"Stupefy!" This one word made Sirius fall to the ground. "Well this will make the Dark Lord happy." A Death Eater said. "Wormtail, pick up the body. Follow me."
***
(Somewhere else in Knockturn Ally)
"How long have we been here?" Charlie asked.
"Too long." Someone else from the group answered.
"Wait, quiet, their apperating away. That means the wards are down. YES! Is everyone ready to go back? On the count of three. ONE, TWO, THREE!" At those words all six members of the trapped group disappeared with a little pop, and reappeared in the shop that the order had taken.
***
(Back in the Shop)
As the six missing people popped into the shop everyone started approaching them. Dumbledore beat everyone there and lead them away before anyone could ask them questions. "What happened?" Dumbledore asked as soon as they were out of ear shot.
"We advanced really quickly, sir. We must have been right in the heart of the meeting. They had other death eaters scattered around the ally, but that must have been just to distract us. Well we were outnumbered about 20 to six, so they pinned us down pretty quickly. We've been stuck there since about the time we went in." Charlie answered. "Then we heard them stun someone, and they all disapperated, so we realized the wards must be down, so we came back here."
"Did any of you see who they stunned?" Everyone shook their heads.
"Sir, what's going on?" Victor asked.
"Sirius went out to find you. That must have been him that they stunned."
"Well let's go. We have to go find him." Charlie burst out.
"Calm down Mr. Weasly, we have a rescue team ready to go the second we hear from him. All we can do now is wait." Dumbledore said as an end to the discussion and they all went back to the group being bombarded with questions.

(Voldermort's hideout)
Sirius looked around. He was surrounded by about thirty Death Eaters. He tried to get up and found that he was bound to the floor by chains around his neck, wrists, and feet. "Ah, I see our friend has woken up." An icy voice from strait ahead of Sirius was heard. All of the Death Eaters laughed. This must be Voldermorts voice. "So I have finally met the infamous Sirius Black. You know Sirius, some say you are my second in command. My right hand man." Voldermort was toying with him.
"Some people are stupid." Sirus spat in response.
"This is true. I agree with you there. You see, we're already getting along." Voldermort took two more steps towards Sirius.
"What do you think you can get from me? You think Dumbledore will turn himself in for me? You're wrong. You won't get anything for me." Sirius roared.
"I don't want anything for you. I just want you. You see Sirius, I don't like people to think that I have a second in command that is friends with Dumbledore. You will have to pay for other's stupidity. And I have been told you have gotten quite close to Harry Potter, you will pay for that too." At this Sirius quivered. "Crucio" Voldermort yelled and watched Sirius squirm around on the floor for a minute before he took off the curse. "You must learn not to quiver in my presence. Not unless I do something to make you." Voldermort then punched Sirius in the face. "Get up!" He yelled. "There, then you can quiver." Voldermort laughed. "Take him to the dungeons. Tie him up there. You two guard it. If you want to have a little fun with him, be my guest. But make sure you don't kill him." Voldermort said to the two Death Eaters closest to Sirius. "We will have a little chat in a while, I look forward to it, Black." With that Voldermort stormed out of the room and before Sirius knew what was happening he was stunned again.
A/N: Now everyone please review. I could have gone a little further with this but I wanted to get it up real fast for you. One or two more chapters and then they will be at Hogworts! I can't wait I think the story will get much better! Please REVIEW!!
