Chapter 17: Secret Animagus
Thanks for the reviews. I'm so thankful that you read my story, I would have had more stories before this but fanfic changed my password and deleted all my other stories, but thanks for reading mine. J
*****************************************************************
Harry had been at the Burrow for at least three days. He helped Ron with the decorations while Hermione helped Mrs. Weasley with the cooking. Well, at least some of it because Mrs. Weasley did some in magic. Fred and George came yesterday with a carload of presents and they looked delighted.
Right now Harry sat in bed. It was Christmas Eve and there was only a minute left until twelve o'clock. Ron sat awake in his bed and watched as the hand turned to the twelve. A low whistle blew through out the room.
"Happy Christmas Harry," said Ron
"Happy Christmas Ron," replied Harry and they fell asleep.
Harry woke up and saw that Ron's bed was empty. He crept outside the room and down the hall, and down the stairs. Harry looked by the Christmas tree and saw that everyone was waiting for him.
"Happy Christmas Harry!" they all said
"Happy Christmas," he replied.
As Harry was walking down the steps something caught his attention. He looked out the window and saw a big, brown hawk staring at him from the window. The hawk looked oddly familiar but Harry shrruged it off. He walked downstairs and everyone started to open presents.
Everyone had a great Christmas. Harry got suppilies for his firebolt, new clothes, a book, and a lot more. Hermione was greatly surprised at all the books she got, and Ron was happy that he got a polishing kit and a book from Hermione that was called "So you want to be a good Qudditch Keeper?"
"Thanks so much for your gifts," said Ron
"Thanks for mine," replied Harry as he went around thanking everyone.
"Now, we have another stop to make but I'll need Hermione, Ron, Harry, and Ginny to pack their bags quickly," said Mrs. Weasley
"Why?" asked Ron
"You'll find out soon enough," said Mr. Weasley and hurried them off upstairs.
Harry wondered where they were going while he packed his school things.
"Where do you think we're going?" asked Ron
"I have no idea!" replied Harry
"I can't wait to find out," said Ron and continued packing his things.
Harry didn't tell anyone about his dream. He didn't want to tell anyone, because he thought it was going to cause panic and he would have to take occlumency again. Harry did not want to end up alone in a classroom with Snape; it was his least favorite thing to think about.
"Come on, we're leaving!" yelled Fred
"We're coming," yelled Ron pulling their trunks down the stairs.
They loaded up the cars Mr. Weasley borrowed from the ministry.
"Where are we going mum?" asked Ginny
"You'll see," said said.
Harry looked out the window but all he saw the houses, trees, and hills. It took about an hour to get to their destination. Then Harry perked up. He saw up ahead one of his favorite places. Number Twelve Grimmauld Place.
"What are we doing here?" asked Harry
"It's Christmas isn't it?" said Mrs. Weasley "More presents to give and receive"
They parked the car and Harry got out. He walked up to the entrance and knocked.
"First you must answer the question, what were the nickanames of the creators of the secret map," said a familiar.
Mrs. Weasley came up and looked annoyed.
"Open up Lupin, It's Christmas!" she said
"Sorry Molly, I just wanted to have a little Christmas fun," replied Remus opening the door.
"Hello," said Harry
"Hello Harry, all you come on inside, its cold!" said Tonks coming to the door.
Harry turned to bring his luggage inside when he saw the same hawk fly away from the car.
"I didn't know hawks were around this time of year," said Harry
"Dragonflies? What are you talking about?" asked Lupin.
"Nothing, I just saw a hawk," replied Harry
"OH, well, hurry up inside!" he said and ushered Harry.
Harry walked inside and saw Moody waiting for them.
"Hello Harry," he said
"Hello," Harry replied.
"Gather Round, Gather Round," said Lupin "Happy Christmas!"
"Happy Christmas!" everyone replied.
"Let's get to the unwrapping!" Tonks said.
Everyone went to give eachother their presents. Harry's Christmas was going very well, but he was upset. Everyone was there that he was close too, except Sirius. Harry went away from the group and sat on the stairs. Lupin saw him and came over.
"What's the matter Harry?" he asked.
"It's not the same," Harry replied.
"He was proud of you Harry and so are we," Lupin said.
Harry smiled, "Thanks"
"Anytime, come on we're going to get your rooms set," he said and helped Harry up.
"Alright," replied Harry and followed Remus.
Harry helped Ron get situated into the room they were sharing. Harry had a very good Christmas and was going to enjoy staying here until they leave for Hogwarts.
"Ron?" asked Harry
"Yeah, Harry," replied Ron
"Do you think it's weird I saw the same hawk at your house and here?" he asked.
"It probably was different, don't worry about it," said Ron.
"I just had the feeling I should have caught it or something, like it was evil or something," replied Harry
"You worry to much, good-night," said Ron.
Harry stayed awake having a very sick feeling that he did something very wrong.
*****************************************************************
The hawk flew over the trees and saw Hogwarts up into the distance. It took a dive over the Forbidden Forest and landed at Voldemort's feet. The hawk trembled and a great light filled the Dark Forest. When the light went down Voldemort was standing mext to a figure.
"Did you find where the secret hideout is?" asked Voldemort.
"Yes Master I did, " replied the figure.
"Good job Adolf or should I say Professor Brookings," snickered Voldemort.
"Thank you, master, when shall we attack?" asked Brookings
"Tomorrow we shall put our first plan into action," laughed Voldemort and stalked away.
******************************************************************
Harry tossed and turned, and woke up suddenly. It was morning but he wasn't the only one in the room. Hermione stood over him and looked terribly worried.
"Harry we're in trouble!" she said.
"What happened?" asked Harry
"Well, I overheard you talking about a hawk so I did some reasearch all last night," said Hermione
"And. . . . what?" said Harry
"Look at this," she said holding out a piece of parchment.
Harry read the parchment and he went wide-eyed.
"I thought the ministry kept files of animagus?" said Harry
"They did but . . . when Calavart changed over to Brookings they didn't keep a file for him!" said Hermione
Ron in the meantime woke up.
"What happened?" he asked.
Hermione gulped.
"The hawk Harry saw yesterday wasn't a hawk," she said.
"What?" asked Ron
"What she's trying to say is that Brookings is an animagus, and his form is that of a big, brown, hawk!" said Harry
"You mean . . . " said Ron
"Brookings knows where the secret Headquarters are!" Hermione said.
Suddenly, the door burst open and Tonks stood in the doorway.
"Guys, we have to get out of here, They're attacking!" she said as they heard a loud bang downstairs.
