The next morning all the Weasly's and Harry were up and sitting at the table. Mrs. Weasly noticed all four boys were seriously quiet.

"What's going on with you boys?" she asked

"Err. nothing mum, we are just egger to have some breakfast and start the day, I bet your anxious to have a good day aren't you mum?" the last question sound a little desperate.

"Well, knowing you its trouble your egger for!" she stared at the four boys and looked at Harry last.

"Don't be lead astray Harry you're a good egg, don't let them turn you bad!"

George tutted " typical! Harry isn't an angel you know!"

Mr. Weasly ignored this last comment, "ill be back at six"

As soon as Mrs. Weasly was gone all four boys went into the kitchen and discussed the problems.

"Voldemort" Harry said rather loudly making everyone not only flinch but jump as well.

"You know who is defiantly connected, but how?" Fred stressed on the 'you know who'.

"I know but what were they getting up to," asked Ron with a puzzled look.

"Look, I know you've been told not to speak about last year but it needs to be done" Harry looked at his friends faces. They were all looking at their feet.

"Well, last year," Harry swallowed, " Voldemort, well he told me that the Dementors would join them and that they were his allies.

Ron jumped, "Wow! On his side! What's scary is what's going to happen to the prisoners when the Dementors are gone?"

"What?"

" You know Harry all those murderers!"

They all thought about these last couple of statements. It had never been a problem. The wizarding world slept at night knowing the long dark dreary animals known as Dementors are guarding the evil that doesn't sleep.

"We are going to have to contact Dumbledore" George said suddenly.

"But how?" spat Fred.

Both Ron and Harry looked at each other, knowing what the other was thinking. "Sirius" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~@~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~@~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ginny had gone with Mr. and Mrs. Weasly so there was no problem for them to leave.

"He said he would be in Knock turn alley by "tortures and talons"

Fred and George had been filled in on most of the gossip about Sirius. They now knew he wasn't evil and was nice to Harry. They weren't that surprised. Harry and Ron thought they would need to know as they might have got a bit of a shock.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~@~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~@~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The four figures slipped round Diagon alley like assassins. Past 'flourish and blots', past the 'tavern'. They entered Knock turn alley. They saw dark shapes at every turn. Shadows passing behind them. Finally as if it were light at the end of the tunnel they saw the big black dog.

They followed for a while as the humungous dog took them round twists and turns. Harry and Ron had forgot to mention Sirius could transform to a dog. The dog stopped, morphed and Sirius turned to the boys.

"Shit!" "Fantastic!" Fred and George were surprised and excited at Sirius' change, they hadn't expected it.

"Thanks but maybe ill give you a show another time, but, you have some important information?"

"Yeah it Involves Voldemort"

"Harry, Ron, first, how are you?"

"Were fine but if we don't tell you I think we will all be worst for wear soon."

"Go on" Sirius came closer.

Harry and Ron filled in Sirius on all the details of the Dementors. Fred and George had added better detail on what had gone on. If the matter wasn't so serious they all could have laughed at Fred's face turning white as he remembered it.

"So we thought we would tell you and Dumbledore." Ron puffed out his chest as he said this. He had a striking resemblance to Percy.

"Hummm. interesting. but not surprising, I always knew they were in league with him but I never thought. you mustn't mention this to anyone, I shall tell Dumbledore."

"What else shall we do?"

"Nothing for now," Sirius looked at all of them, "Dumbledore may wish to speak to all of you, but stay out of trouble"

They all looked at each other. "I meant it, we can't risk you getting lost or something happen to you. again"

Harry was slightly taken back and disappointed but he couldn't rest for long.

"Don't worry, you can count on us!" George stepped forward.

"Yeah, we will look after the old beggar!" Fred put his arm around Harry squeezing him tight. Then they caught up on old business and said their goodbyes. An old woman walked past and shouted to them, "whatyoulot doin dan there?" she squinted to see them.

Sirius covered himself, "look for me in Hogsmead at the usual place Harry on the first weekend, and stay in touch!" then he transformed back into a dog and the boys walked out to Diagon alley.

The next day they seemed to forget their troubles. They went again to Diagon alley for their school stuff. Soon they would be at school and things would start to move towards the fight against evil. They might not get a chance to smile and laugh again thought Harry. He looked at Fred, scaring Hermione (who just joined them). He laughed it was good they could still laugh and have a chance at fun, now. For there are more evil things to come.what would come would come. things that may take one or more of their lives.
