He's not dead!
Chapter 2
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
`"I can't believe he's not dead" said Ron for the seventeenth time after reading the letter. "Are you sure that it's his hand writing? What if it's one of You-Know-Who's supporters who are really good with a quill?"
They were sitting in the Common Room after breakfast, comparing the letters from Sirius that Harry got in the past, before heading down to Transfigurations.
"Yeah, I'm sure that it's him, would you please stop telling me to check?" said Harry starting to get aggravated with Ron's asking if it's really him. "I'm going to write back to him"
"Not now" said Hermione, "You'll have to do it later, we're going to be late for class."
Harry nodded, and put the letter in his bag and got up to leave.
"I'm just saying Harry, what if it isn't him; I for one won't believe anything until I see it." Ron was always this stubborn.
"Ron, why won't you believe that he didn't die? I mean you can't die from going through a curtain, now can you?" Harry was twice as stubborn.
"As a matter of fact you can, don't you know what that chamber was?"
"No. It looked like the one that I was in when I had my trial."
"Well this one's different.dad told me about that one. He said it's the death chamber; they only have trials for really dangerous criminals there."
"Harry," said Hermione, for the first time since they left the common room, "What if Ron's right? What if it is a death eater? They already know that you would do anything for Sirius, that's how this all started, remember?"
Harry was now staring at Hermione "So, you're taking his side now? You were just as happy with the letter as I was."
"I know, but it never accrued to me that it could be death eaters. But Ron makes a lot of sense. I think we should tell Dumbledore about this.
"What's the point? They probably know already, Sirius would have told them already, he can't keep this from them. He's part of the order too." With that they entered the classroom, and began their lesson.
After Transfigurations, they had potion, the one class everyone except the Slytherins hate, all because of the teacher. Snape is the meanest teacher there is at Hogwarts, and he despised the Gryffindor.
As they reached the dungeons Harry and Hermione saw the group of Slytherins huddled up in a tiny bundle listening to Malfoy, the other person who everyone hated. On the other side of the hall were the Gryffindor, who were also huddled up in a tiny bundle talking. Harry and Hermione approached them.
"What's going on?" Harry asked Neville.
"Don't know but it's nothing good, as nothing good ever comes from that lot."
"We think they're going to do something to you Harry, I mean it's Malfoy talking, and we all know that he doesn't like you." said Dean Thomas.
"Yeah, well I'm not really worried about them, me and Ron can take them, isn't that right Ron?" Harry looked around for Ron, but couldn't find him.
"Mione, where's Ron? Wasn't he behind you?"
"Yeah, and don't call me Mione, you know I hate it. I don't know where's he's gone off to. He might show up during class, probably forgot something."
About two minutes later Snape opened the door and beckoned everyone in.
"We're going to review a little today, we will do the Shrinking Potion today, here are the ingredients," Snape waved his wand at the board and the ingredients and directions wrote themselves on it. "As we did before, about twenty minutes before the bell rings we will test it. Begin NOW!"
They all busied themselves with the potion making, Ron never turned up. And just like Snape said, they tested the potion, a rat that was in the classroom.
"Alright, you're all dismissed." And the bell rang not a second after he said that.
"OK, where did Ron go? I'm starting to get worried." said Hermione.
To answer her question, Prof. Dumbledore popped out of nowhere.
"Ah, Harry, Hermione, I've been looking all over for you. Would you please follow me to my office?"
Harry and Hermione did as they were told. When they reached Dumbledore's office they saw the Order and Ron sitting around Dumbledore's desk. Ron and his mother were talking. Tonks and Lupin were talking, and Moody was sitting on a chair, looking at Harry with his magical eye.
"Harry dear how are you?" said Mrs. Weasley, giving Harry a hug.
"I'm good, thank you."
"I know you have no idea why you're here" said Dumbledore calmly, "But young Mr. Weasley has informed me that you received a letter this morning from Sirius."
Harry glared at Ron who was staring at the floor, ceiling, anywhere but Harry.
"May I see it please?"
Harry handed the letter to Dumbledore who examined it, than handed it to Lupin who examined it as well.
"Well, Remus, is it Sirius's handwriting?"
"It looks like it, but I don't understand how this could be. I mean I SAW him go through."
"What do you mean?" asked Tonks
"He means," growled Moody, "That once you're through, you're through, you can't come back. That's why it's called the death chamber, they send guilty convicts and they never come back out."
"Oh. I knew that..."
After a quarter of an hour of silence and examining of the letter, there was a funny sound coming out of Harry, Ron, and Hermione's stomachs. That thankfully broke the tension, and everyone laughed.
"I see that some of us are hungry, as it is lunch time." said Dumbledore. "Who wants sandwiches?"
He conjured up a plate of sandwiches, goblets with pumpkin juice, and everyone started eating.
"Umm. Professor?" said Harry, "Why did you call the whole order, about the letter that I got?"
"Oh, I didn't, we were finishing up a meeting before Ron came in. As you can see not the WHOLE order is here, they had to get back to what they were doing, but the rest stayed to see what was going on."
Harry nodded, and went back to his sandwich.

I know this one sounded kind of corny, but I didn't really know what to do yet. The next chapter is still in my mind, I don't know what I want them to do yet.
