Chapter 5:
Dumbledore's Army... A brute force of mystical creatures, spies, and powerful wizards, right? Wrong.
Dumbledore's Army... A small group of teenagers who have had a hard enough time trying to finish their homework. But it's true.
"Albus, you surely aren't going to send these kids into battle are you?" Remus asked bewildered.
"No, no, no, of course not. Resent events have shown me that they will fight whether I ask them to or not. This is their world as well Remus, their homes, their lives, and their futures depend on it. They would want to be involved one way or another. Why shouldn't it be for the better cause?" the old wizard replied.
"But Albus! You'd be sending these kids to almost certain death! Most won't make it out alive!" Remus argued.
"Ah Remus, there are some things you must understand. One: As I said before, they will choose their own destiny, whether they choose to fight or not, I will not force them, you have my word. Two: It is ALMOST certain death. Three: You underestimate the power within these children. Why do you not have faith? Why can't they fight for the one's they love?" Albus replied coolly. He remained unaffected by Reumus's raving, and sat calmly drinking his tea.
"They're only sixteen years old! Some even younger! They don't know what it's like! Fighting for their lives, the lives of their friends and family; to see a persons they love die right in front of their eyes. The pain, the tension, the fear... They're just children! They won't even last a day," he snapped. Moody remained silent. He didn't want to get involved, even though he had sided with Dumbledore from the beginning.
"Wouldn't they Remus? Six of those 'children' have already felt the pain, seen the horrors. They will fight. Other's have seen it too. Not just the children, but adults as well. They will not take this sitting down. Harry will not let the death of his godfather go un-avenged He has unfinished business with Voldemort. Hermione and Ron will follow him wherever he goes, we all know that. More will follow, and we will have such an army, no evil will be able to match it," Dumbledore said, taking a sip of tea.
"But Albus, you're not..." Remus began.
"Remus, listen to him," Tonks interrupted, "he's right. The kid's will rally and fight for their own survival. And Harry will lead them. You know it. You have to face the facts, they're not children anymore. They all grew up a long time ago."
"Tonks, you don't understand! You just don't get it and you never will!" he yelled, standing up and storming out of the building.
"Three...two...one...," Moody counted.
"WRETCHED FILTH! SCUM BENEATH THE EARTH! GET OUT OF MY HOUSE!" cried Mrs. Black's portrait.
"SHUT UP! You egotistic, selfish, no good, dirty rotten, imbecilic, pathetic excuse of a human being!" shouted Moody, getting up and moving towards the portrait.
"HOW DARE YOU!" she shouted back.
"IMPEDIMENTA!" Albus and Tonks heard Moody bellow.
"Alastor...," sighed Dumbledore
"Sorry sir, I couldn't help myself," Moody shrugged, hobbling back into the kitchen, his hair sticking out more than it had a minute ago.
"Mad-eye...your hair!" Tonks stated. "And your face!"
"Yea I know, spell rebounded, like always," he answered.
"Dumbledore, may I?" Tonks asked.
"Yes, ofcourse he will be needing some comfort. I understand how he is feeling, but it is what needs to be done," he said.
"I will be sending word to Hary and all participants in the D.A. The time has come for everyone to know about the rebelion. Parents will be informed, the other students as well and they shall decide. I will contact you the moment things get settled." Albus spoke.
"Good-day sir," grumbled Mad-eye.
"Good-day Alastor," nodded Albus, "Tonks?"
Tonks followed the head master to the door, deep inside her own thoughts.
"Tonks, I feel that Remus will need you now more than ever. He has no one now. He needs that security. Take care of him for me, for us all please?" he asked.
"I will," she said.
"Take care," he said, and through his half moon glasses, Tonks was sure she saw one of his magical winks. Then with a wave of his wand, Albus was gone, leaving her alone at the door.
"Where do you think he's gone Alastor?" Tonks asked worriedly. The past twenty minutes seemed to have lasted twenty years, and she was having a hard time trying to get a hold of it all.
"I don't know. Maybe to howl at the moon or something...Hey! Watch it!" He exclaimed as a shoe came flying at his head.
"Don't EVER insult him like that again!" Tonks snapped, waving her wand and the shoe glided back to her. "I'm going to find him if it takes me the rest of the week!" And with that she left, leaving Moody to finish his breakfast in peace.
"Women, they just don't know when to leave us men alone," he muttered.
A/N: So, what did you all think? I know it's not the greatest, but it seemed necessary. If you have any advice or whatever, feel free to tell me! Review Please!!!
