Return to Hogwarts III ^_^
It was cold, and the wind beat endlessly against his black and silver feathers. Flying was hard, and Harry could see from the despairing glances that Hedwig was giving him from time to time that he wasn't doing very well. It didn't matter though, not really. He got to Hogwarts, and that is what counts.
He and Hedwig separated, Hedwig heading for a rest in the owlery and Harry for Dumbledore's office. Harry hoped Dumbledore would understand, and not think it was some ploy to get back to Hogwarts because he preferred it. Harry landed (with a great deal of difficulty) on the ledge outside Dumbledore's office and looking in he could see it was empty. He tapped with his beak on the window, still not used to seeing things totally differently (muggle bird and magical birds alike, they still have eyes on the side of their heads!). Fawkes saw him, and being the incredibly smart and clever Phoenix he was he hopped over and opened the window with a tug of his beak. Harry was glad that the window opened inwards, or he would have fallen. He hopped in with what he hoped was an appreciative cheep of thanks. Fawkes watched him with an amused air for a second, and then fluttered back to his perch. There was a loud snoring noise, and Harry looked around to see all of the portraits were asleep. Fawkes rustled his tail a little to get more comfortable on his perch, and Harry, wondering what his tail looked like, craned his head to see. It was no good; he just couldn't bend his head back far enough. He tried the other side, no luck. Then, by a belived-at-the-time-to-be-a-stroke-of-brillance he looked underneath along the curve of his belly (breast (?)) and just managed to trip himself, ending sprawled up on the floor. Fawkes, who had been watching these antics, fell into the pile of ashes under him, with a very human like snort of laughter. Harry glared at his red and gold clone for a second, and then changed back to Harry Potter (the human one). He had heard footsteps, and more than on pair. Pulling his cloak over his face quickly he stepped into the shadows behind Dumbledore's desk, hoping that the people coming would be Order people, he did not want to explain how he got there to one of the non-Order teachers.
The door opened and Albus Dumbledore stepped into the room, followed closely by Minerva McGonagall, Arthur Weasley, Molly Weasley, Kingsley, Nymphadora Tonks, Alastor Moody, and, to Harry's never ending annoyance, Severus Snape. Dumbledore showed very little surprise on seeing him, but everyone else stared. Harry felt very relieved, and took of his cloak.
"Number 12 Grimauld place has been attacked." He told them, watching their reactions with mild interest, the two Weasleys started, Kingsley swore under his breath, Tonks swore loudly, Moody muttered something about 'not enough hiding spells', and McGonagall grimaced.
Harry thought he had better tell them the rest, "apparently when Ron, Ginny, Hermione, Neville and Luna went looking for you, Mr and Mrs Weasley, the Death Eaters found out where the Order's HQ is."
"What?" started Dumbledore, and McGonagall hurried out the door to, Harry assumed, get Ron, Neville, Ginny, Luna and Hermione.
"That's what I said." Said Harry, "I saw Voldemort talking to Wormtail." Kingsley and Snape flinched at the name and Snape hissed, "Don't say his name!!"
Harry was just about to quote Dumbledore at him when the five teenagers arrived. They were all looking a little tired, and were wearing their pyjamas and dressing gowns. Harry wondered how McGonagall had got Ron out of bed so quickly.
They didn't recognise him at first; actually, they didn't notice him at all, as he was standing at the back of a room full of adults.
"Mum! Dad! What are you doing here?" asked Ron as he was ushered in.
"What have we done now?" asked Ginny in her best I-don't-know-what-I've- done-yet-but-I-deny-it-categorically voice.
"That is what we would like to know," said Dumbledore, and seats appeared for them. They sat down and Dumbledore told them that he was going to perform an anti-memory charm spell on them. They were puzzled until Hermione spoke up, light dawning on her face, "we've done something that you made us forget, but now we need to remember it!'
Dumbledore nodded, "five points to Gryffindor, I think."
Harry watched curiously as the spells were performed. His friends fainted one by one, slumped in their chairs. "Will they be alright?" asked Mrs Weasley anxiously bending over the only two of her children left at Hogwarts.
"They will be fine, but perhaps a little muddled when they wake up."
Ron was the first to come round. He rubbed his head a minute, and then sat up a little.
"What the-?"
"Mr Weasley, I believe you now remember spending a short space of time on a particularly rough island?"
"Hole." Grumbled Ron.
"Exactly, now, tell me, what exactly happened there?"
"They asked a lot of questions."
"What kind of questions?"
"Where is the Orders hq." Ron realised what he was saying, and jumped to his feet. "Oh boy! Grimauld place is going to be attacked!"
"It already has been my boy, no thanks to you." Grumbled Moody, which Harry thought was a little unfair. After all, it could be argued that since Moody let himself be taken by Barty Crouch last year that it was his fault that the Dark Lord had returned.
"What? But Harry!" yelped Ron, who still hadn't noticed Harry standing behind professor Dumbledore.
"I'm fine Ron, I had prior warning."
Ron stared at him for a second, then jumped up and gave him a quick hug.
"Good to see you!" he grinned, and Harry wished he was taller, Ron nearly dwarfed him now.
The others were coming around now, and Harry chuckled at his friend's faces as they remembered what was going on, what had been going on and saw him.
Hermione and Ginny hugged him, Luna shook his hand and Neville clapped him on the back.
"Did they ask any other questions?" asked Dumbledore urgently, leaning forward over the desk.
Ginny shook her head, "all the questions I remember were about the Order, who was in it etc. I had to answer." She began to dry and her mother hugged her, "they said they would kill the others if I didn't."
"That's alright Miss Weasley, I'm sure we would have done the same thing in your position." Dumbledore assured her.
"So that's how they knew who we all were." Grumbled Moody, obviously not as forgiving as Dumbledore.
"Alright," said Dumbledore, "children I want you all to go see Madame Pomfrey."
The others were escorted out an Harry watched them go longingly, wishing once again for a return to school life.
While he thought wistfully about it Dumbledore gave orders to the Order members and they left hurriedly. Soon only Harry, Moody and Dumbledore and Fawkes remained. Dumbledore and Moody were talking quietly, so Harry wandered over to Fawkes and scratched him behind his plume.
"You won't tell anyone about my little accident, now will you, Fawkes?" he asked, simply to make conversation. He didn't particularly care if the whole world saw him fall over his own tail feathers. The door clicked shut and Harry turned to find that Mad-eye Moody was gone.
Dumbledore sat behind his desk, looking rather tired, Harry thought, but what else was new?
"Harry, I forgot to ask you, how did you get here?"
"I flew."
"I see no broom."
"Not that kind of flying."
"I see." He obviously didn't really so Harry showed him, and the Headmasters only comment was, "I like the colours."
"Professor, since I have nothing to do.and I can change into forms that the Death Eaters don't know about; could I do something for the Order? I'm going Spare with nothing to do."
Dumbledore watched him for a second with those sharp, blue eyes, measuring him.
AN; well, that's it for chapter thirteen, hope u enjoyed it. I have had a couple of reviews telling me that it is confusing. Does anyone agree? I meant to make the first chappie confusing, but not the rest. Do I jump around a bit? Tell me!
