~Let the Sixth Year Begin~

The boys decided they would tell Dumbledore the next day as their naps had lasted well into the night, at the moment they were heading back to Gryffindor tower, they all thought no matter how nice any rooms they found in Hogwarts were, nothing could beat gryffindor tower. As they walked they were talking about what they saw in their visions. 'This is bad you guys, all of those dark wizards we saw brought some of the worst times the wizarding world has ever known, and now they're going to be teamed up, its going to be hard to take them out' Seamus said as they went with a worried look on his face. 'I know, this is going to be hard but we just need to stand united and we'll be able to do anything, I mean, who says we have to take each of them on by ourselves, you saw the vision, we'd be fighting together' Ron said looking unusually serious, they all agreed with Ron's point, they all thought, like the sorting hat said last year, "Stand united, be strong from within". At that moment they arrived at the portrait of the fat lady, said the summer password (gryffindor five) and went inside, they all sat in the common room for a while not talking until they all drifted asleep one by one.

The next day they walked into the Great Hall and found Dumbledore sitting at the head table eating some bacon and eggs, they approached him and asked if after breakfast they could have a word in private, to this he nodded and they went and ate. Afterwards they were all in Dumbledore's office and Harry told him all about the vision they all had, after they told him Dumbledore had a look of deep thinking upon his aged face. Then Dumbledore stood up so suddenly that it made the young men jump. 'Boys' Dumbledore started 'I have to tell you something, there is no real secret power to The Brotherhood of the wolf, you were all chosen because your all naturally destined to be powerful warriors of the light, this is the thing you boys were destined to overcome, you are all strong young men. I know you will find a way to overcome your enemies, but I must be off boys, the staff need to have a meeting about some events we want to happen this year.

It was late in the afternoon and Harry, Seamus, Dean, Ron, and Neville were out on the quidditch pitch to have some fun and relax a bit, it was surprising but even Neville was in the air on his broom, it seems that ever since he became a hawk animagus he became more adept to flying. They were all in a circle and passing a quaffle around when Seamus started talking about what Dumbledore told them earlier that day. 'Me a powerful wizard destined to overcome a powerful dark lord? I would never would have guessed that this is what I would be doing'. Dean Neville, and Ron agreed with him but ever since The Ministry of Magic he knew this was something he would have to do. Ron then changed the subject when his stomach gave a grumble that they could all hear, Harry then said, 'I think we should go to the great hall to eat before Ron's stomach implodes.' Everyone laughed and they flew to the heavy oak doors that lead inside. Ron practically ran into the great hall and was already eating by the time the rest sat down beside and across from him.

The next day Harry woke up earlier then the rest of the guys he thought, but when he looked outside of the window towards the quidditch pitch he saw a cougar running and then jumping into the air changing into Seamus on the way up and then he saw spells firing off, he's being attacked, Harry ran out of the common room and changed immediately, when he reached the entrance hall Harry mind spoke to him, '*Seamus are you all right, I saw spells being fired off, are you being attacked? *', '*Umm not that I know of Harry I'm just training a bit if you want you can come and train with me*', Harry slowed his pace and said '*Yeah okay I'll be there really soon*'. Harry then took off as fast as his wolf legs could carry him, which was surprisingly fast; he hadn't really gotten a feel for the wolf body and now was a perfect chance. Harry was just out side of the qudditch pitch and was almost going to crash into it but stopped dead in front of it and jumped up, while he was jumping he transformed, pulled out his wand and cast a levitation charm on himself, he kept going and when he reached the top of the pitch wall he took the charm off and started falling towards the center of the pitch he cast the slowing charm on himself and he slowed down just before he hit, Seamus was waiting for him in the middle of the pitch and he looked at Harry and said, you were right you got here really quick. They trained for a couple of hours which had consisted of them magically dueling with their wands, but they disarmed each other at the same time so they transformed and learned how to fight in their animal forms, by the time they were done Ron, Neville, and Dean were in the stands with some food watching them, Harry smirked along with Seamus and he muttered the portal charm, "Portum" and thought of the point just behind their fellow gryffindors, Harry quietly told Seamus to transform and run right at the point where he put the portal, they both did just that and ended up right behind the rest of the Brotherhood. Ron, Neville, and Dean jumped up in surprise while Harry and Seamus transformed pack and took some food for themselves.

The rest of the day past like a blur and in what seemed like a matter of minutes the rest of the school was seated in the great hall listening to Dumbledore's speech.

--'Now that we've all been fed and watered I must tell you some things before you can go off to bed, First of all, the Forbidden Forest is forbidden to all students, no magic in the corridors between classes, and I am pleased to announce we are going to be having three balls this year, one for Halloween, another for Christmas and the last will be for the end of the school year, but that is all for now, so off to bed'.

'So, we're having a few dances this year huh? Got anyone in mind that you wanna ask to any of them?' Seamus asked the others casually

'Well not really but did you notice the sixth year ravenclaw girls staring at us?' Harry asked the rest

'Yeah I did, I think us five should ask them five to the Halloween one' Ron, Dean, and Neville said who looked at each other in a weird way.

They made it to the gryffindor sixth year dormitories changed in silence and drifted off to sleep.

The next day they all rushed down to the great hall and started eating, the timetables were handed out by professor Mcgonagall, they all looked at it and they realized they all had been put in the same classes, they all smirked and Dean said, this years gonna be a piece of cake. They all had transfiguration first and they all went and picked seats around the middle of the classroom. The rest of the class started filing and they saw that the gryffindors had this class with the ravenclaws; they all saw that all the sixth year ravenclaw girls were in here so they decide they would show off today.

'Hello class, and welcome to newt level transfiguration. This year we will be studying human transfiguration, and how to conjure things out of thin air.

The brotherhood looked at each other and smirked; they all already knew how to do this both of these things.

When Mcgonagall had finished explaining the theory behind conjuring things into existence and set them off to do it themselves by conjuring small things into existence like pieces of paper or muggle pencils almost no one could do it accept for the gryffindor boys, two ravenclaws and Hermione a gryffindor girl, by the time class was over the boys all conjured up a pile of different extravagant things, each trying to outdo the other, they decided to call it a draw and then they made the piles disappear, just before Harry was going to leave Mcgonagall asked if she could have a quick word, he nodded and walked over to her desk, she started by saying 'Potter I'd like to say your quidditch ban has been lifted and you can play on the team again, I would also like to make you team captain', Harry smiled and said 'Yes of course I'll be captain!' Harry was about to turn to leave when she started saying, 'Potter that was some of the best transfiguration any students have done ever since your father and his group of friends were here at school', Harry again smiled and thanked her for the compliment, Harry then turned to leave because he was going to be late for charms. Harry made it in the class just in time and took a seat with the other gryffindors, they asked what she wanted and he told them that he was the new captain for the gryffindor quidditch team. They congratulated him and then he told them that they were doing some of the best transfiguration since his father's time, they smiled at this and then turned their attention to professor Flitwick who was now telling the class what charm they would be learning that day, it turned out to be a reflection charm, which when cast would make one, or two copies of the caster himself or the person or thing he cast it on. This being a new charm for all the gryffindor boys only managed to do it after two tries each, after that they mastered it. Flitwick who had been watching the boys commended them on they're fast learning and awarded 10 points each to gryffindor. Since they're last two class were doubled classes they now had lunch where they were talking about what they should do that night, they decided that they would go chart the forbidden forest so that they could place it onto the new enchanted map of Hogwarts and the grounds they wanted to make.

After lunch they had double care of magical creatures, then finished the day off with double Defense against the dark arts.

Care of magical creatures was held outside and the boys found out that it was held with the slytherins again. The Brotherhood decided that if Malfoy started trying to disrupt the class they were going to make him pay. Harry thought that Hagrid really improved at teaching and was now petting the griffin that he brought in, it was a magnificent creature, and like the Hippogriff it was very proud, so you shouldn't ever insult one, Malfoy especially listened to that rule as he knew the outcome if you were ever to break it. Hagrid was in the middle of telling the class what a griffins diet was when the bell rang, Harry and the rest of the gryffindor boys went and told Hagrid what a good lesson it was and that they were going to come and visit him at the end of the week. They made their way to Defense against the dark arts when their specially trained danger sense went off, they all duck at the same time and turned around, Malfoy, Crabbe, Golye, and two other boys Harry didn't know had sent hex's at them and still had their wands pointing at them, 'Think your funny do you, making fun of me in that big oafs class? Well now your going to pay' Malfoy finished and they sent stunners at the gryffindors who all were in sync with one another and all did a jumping front flip over top of them, Malfoy looked surprised that they did this, Neville then took a step in front and said 'Sod off Malfoy you great dirty git' Malfoy was enraged by this and started firing curses at him, Neville simply moved out of the way of them and when they other slytherins tried cursing him, before they even got the words out of their mouths, they were on the ground stunned, Neville then said 'Malfoy, never make fun of gryffindors or Hagrid again or this could be a lot worse, he then smirked, and muttered a spell under his breath and it hit Malfoy square in the chest, his hair turned gold and crimson, his robes changed to the same colors and on the back it said, Slytherin stinks, Gryffindor rules! The gryffindors laughed at this and walked away, they all told Neville he did good and said now Malfoy can't ever make fun of you again for not having any brains, I mean he was stupid enough to mess with you.

Defense, went by quickly and they learned a new type of shield charm which could block anything other then the killing curse.

That night they all got ready to go and chart out the forest, they divided into teams, they had air unit, (Ron and Neville), and the ground team (Dean, Harry, and Seamus).

Instead of going through the castle and into the grounds they decided to leave through their window in the dorms. Neville and Ron Flew out, while Harry Dean and Seamus just jumped out, they we going really fast downwards when they all yelled "Slowus Maximus" they all slowed down and landed already transformed lightly on the soft grass. Right when they landed they took off towards the forest, Dean being a bear didn't look like he could keep up with a wolf and a cougar but he did, they reached the edge of the forest and they slowed down, they walked in and quickly found a unicorn trail, they were walking for a couple of minutes when they heard something about 10 meters in front of them the all quietly changed back took out their wands and climbed into a tree and hid themselves, Harry yelled who's there, the sounds stopped and when they saw what was making the noise their jaws dropped.
