The next morning Harry got up and dressed and Apperated back to Hogwarts in a broom closet outside the Great Hall. He made sure no one was watching when he exited the closet and entered the Great Hall for breakfast. Hermione was already sitting at the House table waiting for him. He sat next to her and began eating. When Ron walked in he sat away from both of them. Harry was beginning to consider using a memory charm on Ron about his new identity but for now thought against it.

McGonagall walked towards Harry and Hermione and said, "Potter, Granger, Professor Dumbledore wants to see you after breakfast."

They both nodded and finished up eating and headed for the gargoyle. It stepped aside bowed and let them into Dumbledore's office. They didn't wait very long for Dumbledore to walk into the room.

"Well, I see that you are able to get in here easy enough without the password." Dumbledore said amused. Harry nodded.

"Being the heir does have its quirks. But I still like being a regular kid who has the same basic needs and anybody else." Harry answered.

"I noticed that you and Miss Granger have grown close. And that Mr. Weasley is not very agreeable at this point. Do not worry he wouldn't betray your trust and it will be a while before he comes to his senses." Dumbledore told the both of them.

"Professor, why did you need to see us? I truly doubt you needed to see us just to tell us about our relationship and Ron." Hermione asked.

"Too true, Ms. Granger I need to ask of you a favor." Dumbledore stated.

"What kind of favor?" Harry asked.

"Well firstly I need to tell you not to worry about anything. Because what I am about to say will affect both of you. There are two prophecies; one is where Voldemort would mark a baby who was born at the end of July as his equal. Voldemort got the first part of the prophecy but not all so he didn't know the full information of that prophecy. Also, only one of you could live. As for the other prophecy; it is about the Heir of Merlin, Rowena, Godric, Helga, Salazar, and Arthur. That prophecy is coming true as we speak though I must say that prophecy has a happier ending than the first.

"The second prophecy has a part where it says that two soul-mates would defeat the dark Lord of this time and bring peace for years to come. It describes Harry easily. As the other it was less descriptive. But the obvious must be used. As of now the second prophecy is being fulfilled and the first has already been written." Dumbledore said. (A/N In a later chapter I'll go into greater detail of the second prophecy. If you haven't already figured out what the first prophecy is about read OoTP)

Both Harry and Hermione were dumbstruck. They were both curious as to why Dumbledore would tell them such important information. Dumbledore seemed to sense their uneasiness so he started to explain in more detail.

"You two are the ones spoken in the second prophecy. And Voldemort chose Harry in the first because it could have been Neville. He seemed to think that you were the threat Harry. I know that right now this is really hard to except but it is the only truth that I can give you." Dumbledore explained.

"No, Albus, I understand. He probably knew I was the founder's heir and tried to kill me for it. Neville was just a choice that was seconded. Besides it truly now makes since that I was never truly killed by that curse. I was marked as he equal but now I have surpassed even him. I guess though Hermione is to keep all the power from going to my head." Harry answered.

"Well then, Harry, I guess I underestimated your abilities to think this through. You have made me proud and you are right to think that Hermione is your anchor. Voldemort uses hate because no one ever cared for him. But you Harry have found love something that Voldemort despises. You and Hermione will begin training soon. It would be best to be fully prepared." Dumbledore said. Harry nodded.

"I also think that best. After all you should always listen to your elders, Grandfather." Harry said with a smirk while Hermione gasped.

Dumbledore chuckled. "So you figured that out, huh."

"Yes, it was quite obvious the resemblance to you and Merlin. Also, he is my ancestor from my father side. I suspect that somewhere along the way a daughter of your family married into the Potter family."

"Yes, my granddaughter did. She was the nicest girl and I approved of the match. It just seemed fitting. I wasn't allowed to tell you or anyone else because then they would think that I would really favor you above anyone else in this school since you were my great, great grandson." Dumbledore said happily about the conversation. Harry nodded in understanding. Thanks to Rowena he had wisdom beyond his age and understood the reasoning of this old man.

Hermione was glad that Harry now knew that he had a real living relative that wasn't of the Dursley family. She reached over and took his hand in hers and squeezed it tight. She got a return squeeze from him.

"Well, I believe that it's time for you two to head to your classes. I believe Transfiguration is almost over so you should probably head for Charms. I think that's your next class." Dumbledore stated. Both Harry and Hermione nodded their heads.

They headed towards Charms when everyone was dismissed and they already had their books so they didn't need to go to their dormitory to get them. Harry had extras up at Merlin's Castle so he had nothing to worry about.

They both sat down in the back of the classroom waiting for the rest of the class to arrive. After about ten minutes Professor Flitwick arrived and class began. Ron sat next to Neville which was as far as he could get from both of them. The homework assigned was most out of any classes they had so far. After class was over both Harry and Hermione went to Professor McGonagall's office to catch up on what they missed and had their homework assignment. After lunch Hermione hurried to Ancient Runes class so as not to be late. Harry headed back to the common room since he had no class.

He finished all his homework faster than the day before. He headed down to the Great Hall for lunch. Hermione was already their waiting for him. He sat down next to her. They both ate together and then headed to DADA. Sirius was waiting for them.

"So how has everything gone so far?" Sirius asked.

"Well, besides Ron being mad at us we're fine." Harry answered.

"So I guess you told Ron of your relationship. I already could tell by the way you were acting in class yesterday. It reminded me of the way James and Lily acted after getting together." Sirius said. They both nodded.

"Yeah we did. Dumbledore said not to worry though he'll come to his senses." Harry answered.

"Yes, hopefully soon he just needs time to accept that you're both dating." Sirius said. Harry nodded.

Class started soon afterwards. Their homework wasn't as bad as some of their classes beforehand. They were going to study the unforgivable's like the year before but through the text book and not really using them. After class was over Harry and Hermione headed towards the dungeons instead of Hagrid's hut. Today they had Potions and so far the Slytherins were going to give them a hard time.

When they entered the dungeons they got out all of their ingredients. When Snape walked after everyone was settled and said, "Today, we will be brewing Healing potions today."

There were many groans from the Gryffindors. Especially Neville was growing worried since he wasn't having a very good time in Potions since first year. Today though Snape didn't give anyone a hard time and Harry saw pride in Snape's eyes whenever he looked over at him. After class was over Harry and Hermione headed straight for the Great Hall for lunch.

Ron still wasn't talking to them. Harry was about to decided to stay at Merlin's Castle for a while longer. Hermione didn't like the idea when he told her but agreed. After all, she didn't want anything bad to happen to her boyfriend while he was asleep.

Harry knew that Ron was always watching the both of them. Except during class because then he would lose House points. The teachers were also keeping an eye on Harry almost as if he was some prodigy that would spring up at any given moment.

Harry ignored all the stares he would receive from student and teacher alike. After dinner Harry joined Hermione in the Common room. They both stayed there even after everyone went to bed. They seemed to be waiting for something or someone to come out of the shadows.

Before eleven they both decided to go to bed. Hermione headed towards the girl's staircases after Harry kissed her goodnight. Harry instead of going to the boy's staircase went on ahead and Apperated up to Merlin's Castle to get some sleep.

~*~

The next morning Harry woke up got ready and Apperated down to the broom closet like the day before. After entering the Great Hall he went and sat down next to Hermione, who was reading her Ancient Runes book, and started eating. After breakfast they both headed to Transfiguration. They were both the first ones there.

Once class started they handed in their homework. Like the usual Ron sat as far away from them as possible. They were trying to make mice invisible. Lavender Brown had to hand out the mice.

Harry was able to do it on his first try. Hermione had hers on the second try. Professor McGonagall gave them 20 points each. Finally, class was over and they headed to Charms. Today in Charms they would be practicing all the charms they learned in the first four years in school. Harry and Hermione partnered up.

After class with a lot of homework for the first two classes Harry headed back to Gryffindor Common Room while Hermione went to her Ancient Runes class. After he had finished his homework he went to Merlin's Castle and decided to work ahead in all his classes so then he wouldn't have any homework. Before lunch started he was back in the common room where Hermione was already waiting for him.

After entering the Great Hall they took their seats and began eating. While they were eating Ron came up to them and apologized for the way he was acting. They both accepted his apology and he sat down across from them. They had a happy lunch all three of them.

After lunch they head for DADA with Sirius. Like the first class he hid in the shadows to see if anyone was paying attention. This time only half the class put away their books. Which they were told off for. DADA class was trying to learn how to do the Patronus Charm to ward off dementors. Sirius wanted Harry to demonstrate which he did of course. Harry was reluctant at first but then gave into the inevitable. Sirius kept on bugging Harry to demonstrate and told him he would lose House points if he didn't.

Harry knew he was joking on losing of House points but none of the other students knew that so they made him go up to the head of the class and show them his Patronus. Harry muttered "Expecto Patronum" and a stag appeared out of the tip of his wand. Everyone had a look of awe on their faces. Sirius was near tears at the sight of the stag.

After the stag disappeared Harry explained, "Prongs is my happy memory. He is actually a person with an Animagus form. That stag was it." Only three people in the class knew what that cryptic exchange meant.

Harry sat back down and couldn't wait for class to end. Afterwards the Trio was walking down to Hagrid's Hut since they would be having his class today. Harry didn't really pay as much attention as he would usually have done in Hagrid's class since it was usually dangerous not to. But Harry didn't have to worry since the animals wouldn't hurt him. Hermione also watched him through the entire class through the corner of her eye. She was beginning to worry about him since it wasn't like him to drift off in Hagrid's class.

Before class was over he seemed to come to his senses and became focused. Afterwards the Trio headed towards the Great Hall for dinner. They all sat down on one side. Harry sat in between Hermione and Ron and began eating his meal. He wasn't really concentrating on what he was eating just thinking about ways to keep Voldemort from rising full force with an army in his command. He would have to work fast to gain enough people on his side and of course the animals especially snakes to his side.

Harry had a feeling that it wouldn't be long before Dumbledore would announce this idea at the Order's meeting that was going to happen tomorrow night since it would be Friday night. Harry didn't have any problems with this because the sooner we start the better their chances were at winning against the Dark Lord.

After dinner the Trio headed for the Common room and sat down on the couch. Ron was the first to go to bed after half an hour of talking about the past few days. Hermione and Harry stayed in the Common room until 11:00 then they went to bed. Harry was used to going to Merlin's Castle to go to sleep that was where he went to go to sleep for that night.
