Disclaimer: I only own the character Kendra. The others are owned by J.K.R.
I only now own the story. And by the way I'm not making money on this.
A/N: I can take constructive criticism. And I very much like reviews. Thanks Katie.
Ch. 3 Explanations
"Well, I'm." Hermione began to stick out her hand.
"I know who you are." Said Kendra. Hermione looked at her quizzically. I know every single one of you guys." She looked around at all of them. "You," she pointed at Neville, "Are Neville Longbottom. Your parents were Aurors and your family thought that you might not be magical. Your parents are now ant St. Mungo's because of a Death Eater." She turned away from a stunned Neville to Luna. "And you are Luna Lovegood. Your father is the editor of The Quibbler. Everyone at school thinks you're weird because you believe in things that others don't." Luna still had a dreamy look on her face when Kendra turned to Ginny. "Ginny Weasley: the youngest in a long line of Weasleys. You used to have a crush on Harry, but apparently you don't anymore. The only girl in the family; you have six older brothers. Bill, Charley, Percy, Fred, George and," Kendra looked at the other red-head, "Ron. Ron Weasley, you are the second youngest of the Weasley clan. You are embarrassed that your family isn't very wealthy and people like a certain Draco Malfoy make fun of you because of it. Your best friends are Harry Potter and Hermione Granger." Hermione jumped at the sound of her name. "You Hermione are the smartest person in your year, and possibly in the school. Though none of your family is magical you are. You have a logical mind and keep these two," Kendra snatched glances at Ron and Harry, "in check. Especially this one." Kendra stepped closer to Harry. "You are Harry Potter. Famous for defeating Voldemort," Ron and Ginny flinched, "Oh get a grip!" Kendra yelled at them, then turned back to Harry as though nothing happened, "But he came back, last year. He came back and he wants to kill you. And right now you think that he's in the Department of Mysteries with Sirius, but I'm here to tell you that he's not. I don't care if you saw it," Kendra said as Harry began to protest, "He's not there."
"But Harry said that Sirius's house elf said that Sirius wasn't there." Hermione said shakily. They were all scared of Kendra. She knew all about them, but they didn't know her. Kendra sensed the fear.
"I'm not a stalker I'm just." Kendra began.
"You're American." Ron sputtered.
Kendra looked at him, "No kidding Mr. Understatement-of-the-year."
"That's beside the point Ron. Who cares where she's from?" Hermione said to him, all fear lost.
"Well Hermione I think it would matter that she's American and we're British and she knows who we are." Ron was up and ready for a fight, but for once Hermione didn't protest. Instead she turned to Kendra to explain.
"I can't tell you. Besides you wouldn't believe me."
"Try me." Said Ginny, arms crossed and tapping her foot.
"If I tell you it'll change your whole lives. You'll never be the same again." But it was no use. They were all looking at her waiting, even Harry, who was worried about his Godfather. "Ok, I know all about you guys because you are all characters in a book that is famous all around the world and I read it and really like it and I fell in somehow and I'm trying to help you."
There was a moment of silence and then they all burst our laughing except Luna. "Oh please, if you were going to lie, you could have made up a better story." Neville said through chuckles.
"I think she's telling the truth." Luna looked at Kendra intently. "Besides it does explain a whole lot."
"Thanks Luna. I can always count on you to believe any strange stories."
"What ever. I don't care. We need to get to the Ministry of Magic. Now!!" Harry began to get frustrated as his scar gave another twinge.
"Harry I'm telling you he's not there. And Snape knows, you told him."
"He said he didn't know what I was talking about!" Harry's face was red with anger.
"You idiot! He couldn't say anything in front of Umbridge! She would have gotten suspicious. You're blinded by your anger. I don't know what's wrong with you. You act like everyone in the world is against you. Even your best friends," Kendra pointed at Ron and Hermione, "Get it through your head Harry! You're not the only one in the world with problems. and neither am I." Kendra was always thinking about the problems in her life, when there were so many other people who had it worse off than her. But she was going to let Harry have it now. He needed someone to wake him up, "You've got a hothead and you need to cool off before you do anything rash and end up killing the person you're trying to save!"
"S.Sirius?" Harry muttered wilting under Kendra's stare.
"Yes Sirius! Kreacher lied to you. He was told my Narcissa, Malfoy's lovely mom," Kendra said sarcastically, "to lie to you and get you killed."
"I'm sure he didn't really intent to-" Hermione began.
"He did Hermione. Like Muggles and Wizards, not all house elves are good." Kendra tried to explain calmly. "Maybe if Sirius treated him better he wouldn't be so bad, but he is. And he only answers to Death Eaters now."
Ron smirked. He knew that Hermione had just been logically defeated by a girl she barely knew and couldn't get out of it. "Oh wiped that smirk off your face!" Hermione snapped.
"How can I trust you?" Harry said getting to the point.
"What ever you're doing, I'm coming along too." Ginny said.
"Me too," said Neville.
"And I," Luna stuck her nose up in the air.
"What? No way! I'm not letting you go." Harry stated.
"And why not? We can help you." Neville was ready to protest.
"Because," Harry said through gritted teeth, "you could get hurt and it would be more people to look after!"
"Harry we can look after ourselves."
"I'm going to the Ministry on my own. I've wasted enough time with all of you." Kendra walked up to him and hit him on the back of the head. "Ouch! What was that for!?"
"That was for being an idiot and not listening to me." Said Kendra as Ginny and Hermione snorted. "Don't test me Harry. I am not in the mood to try and persuade a heated dense guy into believing me. All you have to do is go back to the castle and ask Snape when no one is around if you can go rescue Sirius. It would definitely make things a lot easier for you."
"She's right Harry. It makes sense." Hermione said waiting for a retaliation from Harry. But he turned to Kendra.
"But what if it's too late? Or what if Snape doesn't want to save Sirius?"
"Those are all possibilities, but how do you know that you can handle Voldemort successfully again." Ron and Ginny flinched again. Kendra glared at them and continued. "Harry you were just lucky all those times."
"I don't care. I'm going. OUCH!!" Kendra hit him again.
"Fine! Use the thestrals and get your self in bad situation where all your friends get hurt. It's what Voldemort wants." Kendra looked at Ron and Ginny defiantly.
That was when Harry realized that there were thestrals all around them. "Not those freaky invisible things!" Ron complained. I wish I could see the thestrals Kendra thought. Then she saw the scaly creatures. She helped those who couldn't see them on their backs and wished herself to fly. They were on their way to the Ministry.
