Rebirth Of The Phoenix
Child of the new Dawn
Disclaimer: don't own don't sue
A/N sorry for the longer wait, I working on a new fic about Dumbledore's childhood and I had a bit of writers block on this one. It's a bit short too.....
Confessions, Groans, and Thieves
Percy's POV
Percy couldn't remember the last time he had heard the Burrow so quiet, as when he walked down the stairs.
He lowered his eyes at the twins' identical glares and sat on a chair toward the back of the room.
There was a pregnant pause then, " 'Bout time you figured out Fudge is a git." Muttered Fred or George; he could never tell them apart.
Percy gave a weak smile, "I'm not even going to try to defend myself on that."
The twins nodded savagely, "Don't be surprised if we end up testing our products on you."
Percy shrugged and said with the same weak smile, "Don't you always?"
The twins sat in stony silence.
Percy glanced over at Ron and Hermione, "You two are going over to Harry's aren't you?"
The two glanced at each other, then Ron nodded saying, "Yeah, we're staying till term starts. Remus is going to get us to the train."
Percy nodded and silence reigned again, broken again when Mr. Weasley came in.
"Percy."
'Time to confess my sins I guess.' Percy thought grimly, as he followed his father out of the Burrow and aperated to the edge of the wards at Hogwarts.
Dumbledore's POV
Dumbledore was ready to bang his head against the wall by the time the foreign Ministers left.
They had decided to speak to; the vampire covens, the dragon trainers, and the other foreign ministers. They were also going to attempt to make alliances with; the remaining giants, centaurs, acromantula (Hagrid would attend to that), and wizards who are willing to fight. There was some talk of gathering some of the older creatures (such as sphinxes and chimaeras) but for some reason the ministers grew very quiet and quickly changed the subject.
It had taken about six hours to get to that. The ministers would also be looking into the known deatheaters files and positioning trusted arours to follow them as well.
Dumbledore sighed and rubbed his eyes. He would have to be awake and alert for this next meeting.
There was a knock at the door and Percy Weasley came in.
Dumbledore opened his mouth to say a greeting when he was cut off by, "MR. Weasley, its been a while since I've seen you, but I've heard enough to have an idea of what you're up to. What brings you to the headmaster's office?"
'Darn that stupid hat!'
"I- err..." Percy stuttered unnerved.
"I'm sorry Percy. Try to ignore the hat."
The hat immediately started to rant but with a small wave of Dumbledore's wand the hat fell silent.
Percy nodded shakily before starting, "Sir, I've made so many horrible mistakes. I-I joined the deatheaters."
Remus' POV
Harry frowned as he read down the letter, 'Past attempt of custody'?
He glanced up at Remus. Harry didn't voice his question, just waited, his eyes on Remus.
Finally Remus' gave in and with a sigh said, "When you were a baby I tried to get custody of you. The ministry wouldn't let me due to being a werewolf."
"Oh...well you did try, the ministry is really prejudiced." Harry said turning back to the letter.
Remus waited for a moment then glanced back at the stove. Thick black smoke was coming for the remains of their breakfast.
Harry looked up and grinned, "Hope Ron and Hermione have already eaten."
Remus laughed and put the pan in the sink, "How about toast?"
Harry nodded and began to sort through the letters.
Remus glanced back occasionally and fought back a groan as one pile, most likely order business, grew larger and larger.
"This one's from Hogwarts." Harry said suddenly.
Remus frowned, "Didn't you already get your letter."
Harry nodded looking confused and opened the thick yellow parchment, read a few lines, then groaned.
Remus raised and eyebrow and waited, Harry looked up at him miserably, "Because of the war all students have to take advanced classes, including potions."
Remus grinned, "Sounds like fun."
"If you like torture..." Harry mumbled, but broke off when the doorbell rang, "That'll be Ron and Hermione.."
Harry's POV *up in Harry's room*
"Urgh! Can you believe we've got ANOTHER year with Snape!" Ron said disgustedly.
"Dumbledore probably wants us to learn more about poisons and antidotes," Hermione said matter-of-factly, "Incase Voldemort- Get used to it Ron! -uses them."
Harry nodded glumly, "Bet I can guess who he tests the poisons on."
"Well, maybe he'll be nicer now that we're in the order."
"Do you REALLY believe SNAPE could be NICE to us for one second?" Ron asked incredulously.
Hermione sighed and didn't answer.
Harry glanced at Ron, "You know this means we still have to take division."
Ron groaned, "This year is looking worse and worse..."
Hermione frowned slightly, "Who do we have for a new DADA teacher?"
Harry and Ron looked at each other and shrugged.
"Anyone's better than Umbridge...." Harry muttered absently rubbing his hand over the quills scars.
There was a pregnant pause.
"Well," Harry said suddenly, "At least we can pull off some pranks and schemes with wandless magic."
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Meanwhile two books were being stolen; one from the records room at the ministry of magic, and the other from the Black store area in Greece.
Lucius Malfoy smirked as he passed the stunned forms of the guards; master had said this would be easy.
He walked through the rows of family records, until he found one dusty and worn scroll with the words; Godric's Hollow: Potter.
Too easy.
Bellatrix Lestrange walked calmly through the maze of passages; she was very close to her goal now.
She stopped in front of a thick iron door, with no doorknob nor keyhole. She pulled out her wand and drew an intricate shape in front of it.
There was a large series of clicks, then a crash as the door fell back word and great clouds of green smoke come billowing out.
Waving her hand impatiently in front of her face, Bellatrix hurried into the room. Cursing softly as she looked around at the mess, she raised her wand again and tried a summoning charm.
No luck.
Cursing again she started to sort through a pile of books.
An hour later she found what she was looking for. The book was blood red with strange silver stains on it; the peeling title was in a strange language that Bellatirx couldn't make out.
She pulled a piece of parchment out of her robe and compared it to the book, they matched.
Triumphantly she stuffed the parchment back into her robe and covered the book with a piece of black cloth.
She would soon return to the dark lord's favor.
A/n again sorry for the wait. Please review!
Thanks
Kimmylookatmoi- hey how was your trip? Lots of Harry and Remus moments because Harry's going to school in a few days. In case you were wondering the letters Remus got were a day old, so Dumbledore didn't send the advanced classes note to late. Yeah Harry is a little childish. My excuse is that Harry has been under a lot of stress with deatheaters, training, and voldemort. He and Remus have both been kidnapped, tortured a bit, a been though quite a bit of angst so Harry doesn't really need to prove his adulthood to moony. Dumbledore and his teachers are another story, he'll be trying to convince them he's ready for missions. Again Ron and Hermione will show up more since schools starting. Remus hasn't really been helping Harry with his training which is why he asks Harry how he's doing when wormtail broke in. The reason I'm giving Remus parts of these roles is because Harry never got that far with Sirius. Harry never found out simpler things about Sirius like what his favorite color was and stuff. Thanks I liked the ending for the last chappie. I'm not too happy with this one just yet though. Percy and Dumbledore will talk. I am still building off that, just very subtly. Hummm I'm not sure how you spell it I don't have the book with me right now, I'll look it up later. Yeah I think they make some things over important but it showed me a lot of connections I didn't see. Wow $40!! You must really want to read it!
Kemenran- haha the whine continues to work! Yeah, right now they're not really sure how to treat him, but you'll see their revenge soon. Definitely need some more history, I'm thinking up ideas to write about and I'll email you when I have the first chappie done.
ILOVETOWRITE456- thanks! I'm glad you like it sorry for the wait!
Nicoletta- lol so have I! Yeah I was gonna make that a bit longer but thinking of Harry's personality in this fic I decided not too. I don't think Harry would have made a big deal over it. Yep its comin' up! Almost huh? Not Trelawney surely!
LittleEar BigEar's sis- thanks! Sorry for the wait.
PhoenixPadfoot89- deatheater police? We need that in hp. Well I got 50 outta 40 so I guess..
Scarysecrets- party horns yeah! I gotta party going on here in a few hours! No! *Grabs books and hold them to chest* ..... *Starts inching away from roaring reviewer still clutching books* Yes I read those books, my dad and I are huge fans! Thanks! I say frinkin all the time and people always repeat me........ did that make sense?.............. yeah whoo!! Lol haha hisses haha! Ewwwwwwwww... BREATHE its ok Remus CAN keep harry. I think you misread it... Hey my fic my rules! Hummm I should start a tally of noises in reviews... ummmmm do you want Snape to teach Harry? Alright it might not make you unfreeze but he's tiring to make it right.... oh dear I don't think I could handle that sort of power......muhahahahahaha
Athenakitty- yeah yeah percy can be a git
Wynjara- Intrigued is you? Writing is I. Updateing soon I is hoping to do.
Hermionegreen- thanks. No prob. Yep! For now anyway!
