Harry Potter and The War Against Evil
A Fan fiction by Lee Pearson 13
Chapter 1
Harry was in the common room and leaning in a chair next to the fire. He was in deep thought about Sirius's death. He isn't dead. He can't be dead. He will send a letter to me soon saying how well I fought against Voldemort and how the Order's doing. He was thinking to himself.
Harry had decided that Sirius wasn't dead. He didn't want him dead so he denied it. He was staring into the fire when suddenly someone ran into the common room. Harry jumped with a start and looked over to the portrait hole. It was only Hermione and Ron coming through and they ran up to him. "Harry! Harry! Look here! Look," Hermione shouted at him shoving the Daily Prophet in his hand! He looked at it and read it through.
Minister of Magic a few screws Loose?
Yesterday afternoon the Minister of Magic, Cornelius Fudge, had a press conference and stated some very interesting news. "I am sorry to announce that He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named has returned. He attacked at the ministry and we must all now be cautious in everyone we talk to. I advise wizards to walk around in groups of 2 or more and to carry your wand with you at all times," he stated.
Now after all of the hype about the Dark Lord not returning when Harry Potter, the mad, delusional boy, said he had last summer he then stated this "Harry Potter was attacked at the ministry he told me and Dumbledore to. A great large number of wizards are needed to help against Voldemort. This is the age of a new war now, The War Against Evil," he also talked about how Dumbledore had stated it too!
The Daily Prophet reporters, including myself, are shocked at this and are unwilling to believe that he has returned. Especially if Harry Potter and Dumbledore are the ones we are supposed to believe. We are sure our readers will sign the slip of parchment that is enclosed to petition against this war and to show we are not idiots who will believe this sort of rubbish.
Reported by Rita Skeeter for The Daily Prophet
Harry re read it again and stared unbelieving at it. "What? How could they not believe Fudge? I mean…"
"Well they still don't like you at the Prophet so they won't back you and Fudge up, especially since Dumbledore believes it's true as well."
"Ron's right Harry. There is now nothing we can do," Hermione stated rather matter-of-factly.
"How could you lot say that," Harry shouted at them! "You're all as bad as the Skeeter woman if you won't do anything! Hermione won't you report her about being an illegal animagus," he asked her? "Well there's no point really. No one will believe me apart from Dumbledore and he couldn't do anything about it," she said plainly to him. "I'm fed up with all this! You lot don't do anything! I'm the one who has had to pit up with everything," he shouted at them! "Fine then Harry! We will just leave you alone shall we? Never talk to you again," Hermione shouted and Harry replied "Fine!"
Ron and Hermione stormed off and Harry sulked in his chair. He then heard the portrait door open and two students came in. He hadn't seen them before. One was a boy that looked around 11 and very pale. The other was a girl, natural long blonde hair and blue eyes. The typical blonde he thought. They both carried large trunks and neither had any pets. He sat back in his chair when the boy walked over "Are you, Harry Potter? You can't be," he asked Harry? "I am," Harry said plainly "Wow cool. Hope I'm in some of your classes," he said to Harry "How could you be your only 11," Harry said to him shocked. "Shit I forget about that. I am 16 really. Just erm… er… I have an aging problem. That's it an aging problem. I don't age as fast as other people," he said rather hurriedly. Harry looked at him and said "I ain't stupid. You're lying," he said to him and the boy said "Oh I'm Darren by the way Darren Shan," and held out his hand to shake, quickly changing the subject. Harry didn't press it any further and shook his hand.
Harry looked at the girl and said "So who are you?" "Oh I'm Elle Woods. Muggle born. I'm 16 too," she said to him. Harry nodded his head and said "Cool to meet you. So erm you lot want a tour or anything." He said especially to Elle. "Nah we're alright, aren't we Darren," Elle said to him while Darren was stuffing his face? "Huh. No we're fine," he said to Harry and put a thumbs for a thanks while stuffing more chocolate frogs in his face.
