The three of them attacked their presents vigorously, Sirius helping
himself to the Chocolate Frogs and Bertie Botts Every Flavour Beans that
Harry had got from Ron and Hermione respectively, it didn't seem to matter
that he had also received some. Harry eagerly tore of the paper around
Remus's present.
"Wow!" he said. It was '1001 Seeker Tactics'. "Thanks! This will be
great!! I'll learn all sorts of nice things to annoy Malfoy with!"
"Hey!" Sirius said indignantly. "What about my present?""
He pointed to an oddly shaped, terribly wrapped looking parcel. Harry eyed
it suspiciously, but began peeling off the layers upon layers or wrapping
paper. It seemed Siruis had gone to a great deal of trouble to make sure
Harry couldn't tell what it was by its shape.
"Eye of Isis!" he exclaimed, as a brand new broom rolled out. It was a
LightningBolt, or at least that's what it said on the handle. It had to be
the best broom Harry had ever seen, it looked better than his Firedbolt.
"Siruis, I didn't think there was a new broom on the market yet!"
Siruis grinned. "There isn't. When one ahs 12 million galleons at ones
disposal, one can normally get such things ahead of time."
Harry looked awestruck. "You spent 12 million on one broom?"
Remus cracked up. Siruis smiled, shaking his head sadly. "Harry, Harry,
Harry. Of course not. I only spent 2 million. What I meant was, that I
could afford basically anything with such a ridiculous amount of money."
Harry shook his head. "You spent 2 million on me.You gotta be crazy!"
Siruis beamed. "No, I just thought you deserved it. And I dislike
Slytherins as much as you."
Harry pulled a face. "What if I hadn't made the Hat sort me into another
house?"
Siruis looked thoughtful. "Err, I think I would merely remove you from
Hogwarts, or demand a resorting. Harry, who is this from?"
Siruis was pointing at a huge parcel Harry hadn't noticed. "I wouldn't
have a clue," he said truthfully, and removed the paper. Out fell a set of
Order Robes like the ones Remus and Siruis had worn after the trial. A
not was attached.
Harry -
I thought it may be for the best if you were entered into the Order. For
now, you will have to be content with just the robes. More will be
revealed in due time - so don't tell him anything, Siruis.
Yours sincerely,
Dumbledore.
Harry turned, beaming to Siruis, but he wasn't smiling. "What does he think he's doing, making you part of the Order?" he asked indignantly. "Its much too dangerous. Crazy, that man." Remus shrugged, "I don't think so, Padfoot. I think he knows exactly what he's doing - after all, it is much easier for the Order to protect Bambi if he is one of them." "BAMBI?" Harry asked. Remus chortled. "Err, that was what we called you when you were a baby, Harry. Something to do with your dad being Prongs, I suspect." Harry scowled. "Yeah, whatever. I can't say I like it that much - although it's better than some things I get called. But I would much prefer it if you called me Harry. Or I'll start calling you Professor." Remus raised his hands in horror. "Anything but that!! Please, no!" Siruis frowned at them both. "I would like to remind you that we have a whole Gringotts vault to search - and those things are huge. So if you'd both kindly grab your cloaks, well be off." Harry reached for his Order one. "No, Harry, not that. Get your Hogwarts cloak."
They all stood in Harry's vault, uncertain of where to start. "Well, I guess we'll all split up." Harry said finally. The others nodded, and Harry headed towards a dark corner. There was a fresh pile of galleons there - his compensation package, he supposed. Getting down on his hand s and knees, he began to peer into small, dark places. "Harry! Sirius! Over here!" Remus yelled. He leapt up, hurrying over. Remus was dusting off two old Hogwarts trunks, each engraved with his parents names. Harry gulped. "Alohomora!" He whispered, tapping them both. The three of them eagerly peered into the first one. Harry lifted the Order robes off the top. Underneath were dozens of photo albums. He opened one. It was full of pictures of his parents in Order uniform, with their friends and people Harry recognised as Ministry officials and Hogwarts staff. A tear slid down his cheek. "Harry?" Siruis asked softly. "Do you want to look in the other trunk?" Harry nodded.
Inside were a lot of old Hogwarts textbooks, essays, exam results and a small wooden box. Spellotaped to the box was a note. Sirius snatched it, ripping the note ope. 'Harry, these are the things Hagrid salvaged from Godrics Hollow.'
Remus opened the lid slowly, holding his breathe. Inside were a child's teddy bear and two wands. Harry reached out, picking up one of the wands.
"That's- that's James's wand." Siruis croaked. Harry carefully put it back in and closed the small box with a snap. He turned to Remus. "Can I take this back to Hogwarts?" he asked. Remus nodded. "I'll just shrink it." With a wave of his wand, the boxes were pocket sized. They solemnly filed out, the tiny trunks clutched in Harry's hand.
AN. Ok, thanks for the reviews. I got 8 which was great. That's the most I've ever got at one time. This is all lucky guesses, I certainly haven't had an early look at the book. Its just stuff I thought off. I won't be rewriting the trial part, the Ministry would have been in a hurry as they didn't want Harry getting all the dirt on them out to the press. And they have magic, they can do things a lot quicker, although, you may not have noticed it yet, but Sirius's innocence has not yet been announced to the general public. Someone said that the Order of the Phoenix was copyrighted. Well, I'm not copying it, therefore I don't think it really matters. The plot is my own, I thought it up, although the characters and settings are Rowling's. I will continue this, it should be done by the end of the year or earlier. I do have most of the story written out on scrap paper, I just have to type it all up. There is a twist to the plot later on, so if you want to find out more, review.. .
