Chapter 4:  Who's Who???

Harry reread the letter once again, searching for any further information.  He found none and in frustration he crumpled up the piece of paper and threw it on the ground.  To his surprise though the paper had no sooner left his hands than it disappeared. 

"Enchanted paper, I should have guessed," he mumbled.  Staring at the spot where the paper should have been Harry got a weird feeling that the vanishing paper had been made by the Weasley Twins as a new product for their joke shop.  He made a mental note to ask them next time he saw them. 

Sighing Harry glanced at his watch and then to his disorganized room.  He hadn't spent much time in it this summer yet that also meant it hadn't been cleaned in quite some time either.  Looking back at his watch he calculated how long he had to clean up the mess.  Not long, maybe three hours and with his orderly skills he would be using every minute of it. 

Harry sighed as he picked up a pile of clothes and tossed them on his bed.  "Good thing I can't have dinner tonight anyway."

****

Exactly two and a half hours later Harry flopped down on his bed out of breath and completely exhausted.  His body ached and he was sweating greatly.  If he had thought about it he would have left a clean shirt out but Harry was not that kind of person.  All of his clothes were packed messily in his trunk at the very bottom (and we all know how far those magical trunks can go down now) and even if he had Harry doubted he had the energy to change anyway. 

Harry stomach growled and he had a good mind to sneak downstairs and grab something to eat. 

'Too bad I can use magic,' he though.  'I could "accio" the food to me.' 

He smirked at what his aunt would say if she saw anymore food floating through her kitchen after the incident with the flying dessert. 

"How that would be a great going away gift to give to them," said Harry chuckling "Floating food for breakfast!"

He was still picturing the dessert falling on each Dursley's head in its own time and chuckling to himself as he slowly drifted off to sleep. 

****

He lay on his back looking up at nothing.  The whole world around him was black, not a thing could be seen yet he felt secure, safer than he had felt in a long time.  He was lying on something soft yet he couldn't see what it was.  It didn't matter to Harry though, everything seemed perfect, more so than it had in a long time. 

Suddenly a flash of green lit up the space around him for an instant.  He sat bolt upright and stared hard into the darkness.  The air all around him seemed to go colder and his scar hurt once again.  Evil laughter pierced the silent night as it boomed out across area and screamed gleefully "Avada Kadavra!!!"

The green flash appeared once more and in the bright light he saw the figure of a man fall to the ground a mists the tall shadows of trees. 

The laughter continued even after the flash was gone.  It rang all around him and Harry heard the screams of people being killed.  The voices of the many people killed came echoing in the darkness all around him and in there, the loudest of all, was hers. 

"No not Harry, please not Harry!!!"

The laughter rang even louder.

"Not Harry, Not Harry…. Harry…..Harry…."

"Harry!  Harry!  Wake up!"

"Huh, what?"  Groggily Harry woke with a start, his scar hurting the same as last year. 

Glancing up Harry saw a shadowy figure standing over him.  Quickly he jumped out of bed and reached for his wand. 

"Whoa Harry!!!  Its me, Lupin."

Quickly Lupin leaned over and turned on the lamp next to Harry's bed so they were no linger in the dark.  Sure enough, Lupin's war, face stared down at him with a look of concern on his face. 

"Are you alright?" he asked Harry.

"Yeah, fine.  I just wasn't expecting you.  What time is it anyway?"  Glancing at the clock he saw that it was 11:30.  "I thought you said you were coming for me at midnight?"

"I was going to but I wanted to get you out of here as soon as possible," Lupin said, glancing quickly behind him.  "Where's your stuff we need to be leaving."

"Over by the window.  Where are the others?"  Harry asked.

"Only me, we didn't want to risk attention being drawn by all of us coming," he said still glancing over his shoulder. 

"Oh, ok.  Then who are you looking for?"  Harry asked curiously as Lupin scanned the room for about the third time. 

"Just want to make sure no ones listening in on us," Lupin replied, abruptly straightening himself up.  "Now come on, we have to go, I think someone might have followed me here."

Quickly Harry glanced around the room, suddenly wishing Moody was with them to see if anyone was hiding under and invisibility cloak. 

Lupin walked over to Harry's trunk and levitated it up off the ground. 

"Come on Harry, let's go" Lupin said and began walking to the door. 

Harry followed behind him and his trunk full of wondering.

"Lupin, how are we leaving?"

"I set up a portkey in the woods near by here.  I disapperated here but we'll have to walk to get to the portkey," Lupin replied.

"Oh, alright then," and with that Harry and Lupin set off for the wood

****

The walk to the woods wasn't that long.  The wood was only at the end of the block (a good maybe five house down from #4).  They walked in silence mostly from fear of waking up any Muggles but still….

Soon enough they reached the edge of the woods.  Harry looked around but saw nothing that looked like a portkey. 

"Um…  Lupin, where exactly is this portkey?" Harry asked. 

"In the woods just a little ways off, come on now lets go!" he said as he glanced over his shoulder and quickly began pushing Harry into the forest. 

Harry was rather dubious of this though and forced himself to remain in the dame place as he peered into the dark trees.  Harry hadn't noticed it in his dream but the woods looked an awful lot like the woods in his dream. 

"Lupin, I'm not sure about this, maybe we should find another way to get back or someth.."

"Harry!" a voiced sounded from behind him and Lupin and interrupted him from his long run on sentence. 

"Who was that?" asked Harry as Lupin quickly pushed him behind the lamppost (A/N: come on now like that would really help). 

"Nothing, just the wind!" Lupin said sounding slighting nervous. 

"It didn't sound like noth.."

"HARRY!!!"

The voice sounded out once again.

"There's definitely someone there!" said Harry as he forced himself past Lupin with his wand raised to strike……

……another Lupin?!?!?!

Author's Note:  Dum dum dum!!! Cliff hanger again!!!!  I'm awful I know, but don't worry, the next part will be up soon!  I'm so sorry about not posting in so long.  School's really tough this year though and with homework and play practice going on I usually won't have time for updating until the weekend.  Anyway, I hope you like the chapter.  I'm trying desperately not to make Aubrianna a MARY-SUE character.  My muse keeps arguing with me though about how to go about it.  Don't worry though, Aubrianna will NOT go out with any characters whatsoever, especially not Harry.  She has a purpose, but nothing romantic.  I'm still trying to figure out how to get here to Hogwarts though.  Any suggestions would be helpful.  Anyway, let me know your thoughts.  Love it, hate it?
