A/N: Sorry it took so long to update, but I've been really, really busy,
grounded and all that other good stuff, plus the fact that I've been too
lazy to type anything up :P. Anyway, thanks to those who actually reviewed,
really appreciate it. Anyway here's the next chapter, hope you like it. Oh
and if someone will please tell me how to make the bold, underline, and
italics work that would be great.
Chapter: 8 The Plan
The owl flew up to Harry, who was barely half way up the stairs, dropped the letter on his head and flew back out the door it came in from.
Puzzled, Harry picked up the letter and examined it. Written on it was Harry's name and in small letters open immediately
Following orders, he opened the letter:
Dear Harry,
I'm alive! I know this may sound crazy
and you may not believe me but I am alive.
I have so much to tell you, meet me in
the common room at midnight. Bring Ron
and Hermione with you.
Sirius
Harry read the letter thoroughly seven times before he lost it. He started laughing hysterically.
Ron, Hermione, and Ginny were all watching at the bottom of the staircase. When they saw Harry on the floor laughing they all ran up to see what happened.
The letter was next to the hysterical Harry; Ron bent down to pick it up while Hermione and Ginny bent down to see what's with Harry.
Ron was reading the letter, than he also hit the floor laughing like a maniac.
"What's so funny?" asked Hermione
"Yeah" said Ginny, "What could be so funny about the letter?"
"Ha-ha, read it and you'll find out" said Ron still laughing handed the letter to Hermione; Harry was clutching a stitch in his side from laughing so much.
Hermione took the letter from Ron and started reading it, Ginny was reading over her shoulder. Neither of them laughed when they finished.
"This is serious! This is no laughing matter!" said Hermione, Ginny agreed.
Both of the girls stared at the boys until they stopped laughing.
"She's right, we need to tell Dumbledore right away this time. We don't want anything happening again" said Ginny.
"I'm sorry, but who's going to start this shit again?" asked Ron.
"He has a point, and I am going to tell Dumbledore. I'm also going to write to this phony and tell him I'm going to be there."
"WHAT? Why?" Ron, Hermione, and Ginny asked.
"Don't worry, I'm going to tell Dumbledore all about it, but I don't want him to do anything until we find out who the imposter is."
Saying this, Harry took the letter back from Hermione and went to take his shower.
Harry finally finished his shower and went down to the Great Hall to see what was left of the food. Harry found Ron, Hermione, and Ginny sitting together with their heads close.
"Whatcha talking about?" asked Harry.
"Who the person really is" said Ginny.
"What person?"
"The one who's posing as Sirius"
"Okay, pass me the mash potatoes please Ron."
"Sure" said Ron, "By the way, what took you so long?"
"Oh, I was really dirty, and stinky and smelly, and I had to put that stupid pendant in a safe place. No one is going to find it in a million years."
"Really, and where's that?" asked Hermione.
"In my Uncle's old socks"
They all cracked up laughing.
"So did you tell Dumbledore yet?" asked Ginny.
"Not yet, I'm going to tell him when I finish eating" said Harry, "Oh and how come you didn't feed me when I lost my mind?"
"No one would want to go near you, you smelt really, really bad. I think you killed the plants in the Common Room" said Ron.
"Ha-ha, I'm laughing, really" said Harry rolling his eyes, and digging into the chicken.
About thirty minutes or so later, Harry finished his food, and he walked up to the teachers table. (The others finished and went to the common room)
"Hello Professor Dumbledore, may I talk to you please?" asked Harry.
"Well hello Harry, and of course you can, let's go to my office, follow me please" said Dumbledore smiling widely.
Harry followed Dumbledore to his office. They reached the stone gargoyle and entered the Headmasters office.
"How are you feeling Harry?" asked Dumbledore.
"Better, Professor thank you."
"I'm happy to see you out of your.umm. condition. Now what was it you wanted to talk to me about?" "Sirius" said Harry straight up.
Dumbledore nodded.
"I got another letter from him right before dinner, I have it right here." Harry reached into his pocket and took out the letter.
Dumbledore took it and read it thoroughly, before handing it back to Harry.
"Um, I was thinking of actually going and having people back me up, you know to protect me when he makes his move. Ron and Hermione are of course going to be with me, I was wondering if you, Professor McGonagall, and Professor Lupin would wait outside the common room until he tries to kill me. Ginny will be the person to give the signal."
Once again, Dumbledore nodded.
"Alright, I'll ask Minerva if she's up to it, I'll have to call Remus. Now go wait in the tower, we will be there fifteen minutes before midnight."
"Thank you Professor" said Harry as he left the office.
He headed straight to the common room without bumping into anyone or anything. By the time he reached the common room, it was half empty already.
'Wow, people must be tired' thought Harry.
He searched the room for his friends; Ginny was sitting on one of the overstuffed couches reading a book she borrowed from Hermione, while Ron and Hermione were sitting on the other couch snuggling. Harry heard Hermione giggle.
'Hmm, Hermione giggles now.'
"Hey Harry, is Dumbledore going through with the plan?" asked Ron as Harry approached him.
"Yup" said Harry plopping down on the unoccupied couch, "All we have to do now is wait."
"That reminds me" said Hermione, "Did you owl him back and tell him that we'll be there? Cause if you didn't than we'll be wasting our time."
"SHIT!" Harry jumped from his seat took the quill and piece of parchment from Hermione and wrote his letter.
At about 11:55 the whole common room was empty, except for the trio, Ginny standing by the portrait hole with the invisibility cloak on, and Dumbledore, McGonagall, and Lupin waiting outside the common room for the signal.
All Ginny had to do was wait for her signal, Hermione's scream, to show the signal, opening the portrait hole to let the teachers in. Everyone especially Harry was nervous.
At midnight exactly the fire turned green and someone came out of the fire.

OMG! Damn cliffhangers! Ha-ha you know you love them. Want to know who it is? You have to be patient, cause I'm to lazy to type up the next chapter. I'll update earlier than I did before because I already have it written out, all I need to do is type and post. Hope you liked this chapter, review please, and tell me how to work the bold italics and underline thingys.
Fawn
