Chapter Three- DA and Deatheaters

On Wednesday morning Harry rose late. As he walked down to the common room he realized that everyone had already left for breakfast.

Harry slowly walked down to the great hall, loathing the day. As it was a Wednesday he would be going to a double period of potions after breakfast which would be followed by an lesson of divination. Luckily he had his last period free and kept this as a ray of hope that the day would not be so bad.

He walked into the great hall and saw many people in tears. As he made his way toward the Gryffindor table he noticed Dumbledore rise and try to bring the hall to order. "Students, please sit down. There is no doubt that you have all seen or heard the news but we must ask you all to try and keep your wits about you. As many of you have this day lost family or friends, classes today and tomorrow will be called off. I extend my deepest condolences to those of you who have lost someone dear, and know that this wrong will not go unpunished." He sat again and Harry looked at the others. He ran to the Gryffindor table and sat between Ron and Ginny.

'What happened?" He asked desperately, wide eyed and worried. "A siege at the ministry." Hermione explained from Rons other side. "Many people were killed or injured. Fudge is being kept hostage and the deatheaters are in control of the Ministry building. Amelia bones and some others managed to escape and running a make shift Ministry from somewhere unknown as we speak."

Harry looked on in shock and then noticed Ron and Ginny's sad faces. "Guys, what happened? Is your dad okay?" He asked slowly his heart beating faster in his chest. They nodded and Ginny mumbled "Percy." Harry's face was drained of color. Although Percy was his least favorite of the Weasleys he still wouldn't have wanted him to get hurt.

"No one knows what happened to him as there is no body. They think he has been kidnapped." Harry nodded slowly and sat with his face in his hands. How could this happen? Why did this happen?

Harry rose quickly and walked out. He followed the corridors around the school heading for the Room of Requirement when he heard footsteps and his name being called. He turned slowly on his heel. Tonks walked down the hall towards him, a grim look set on her usually jovial features.

"Harry the headmaster requests to see you in his office. He needs to speak to you immediately." Harry looked at her and mumbled "Great" before motioning her to lead the way.

Harry followed Tonks up the stairs and entered Dumbledore's office. Upon arrival he realized that they were not alone. Harry walked in and Dumbledore motioned at an empty chair "Please sit Harry." Harry did so looking around at the faces of Moody, Kingsley Tonks and Professor McGonagall as he sank down into it. "Harry I will get straight to the point of why we have called you here today. Due to this attack we believe that we should start your training straight away. We would like to discuss a place and time for this to begin. We recommend we start tomorrow as"

"No." Harry said harshly. Dumbledore looked up surprised. "Harry what's wrong?" Harry looked the headmaster in the eye, the twinkle that usually claimed residency there was gone with the slight shock that Harry had given him.

"I am not the only one who needs to be protected. Tomorrow I am calling a meeting with the DA and I will be trying to show them what an attack by Voldemort and his Deatheaters is really like." Everyone looked at him surprised so he continued. "I don't know how many died in this incident and I don't know what is happening as we speak but I do know that people need to know and see what an attack can be like so everyone can see what could happen and try and avoid it." Harry's voice was cold and hard. The anger he had been feeling towards Dumbledore because of the fact that he had hidden the prophecy from him for so long was beginning to boil inside of him.

Dumbledore looked at Harry and sighed softly as he realized that Harry had already made his decision. He nodded "If they are your wishes Harry. May I suggest you borrow my pensieve to show them your experiences, it will make it more real to them and they may understand it a little better." Harry nodded his thanks and Dumbledore began "Now as for your Tuitions Harry, we need to think of a large room that we can hold them in. one big enough to place a maze if need be."

They all thought for a while before an idea hit Harry. "Sir is it possible to enchant a room to be like the room of requirement?" Dumbledore looked over his finger tips at Harry for a moment before answering. "Yes Harry, but what is your idea?" Harry grinned and simply said "The Chamber Of Secrets." Everyone looked shocked except for Dumbledore who smiled at him and chuckled slightly. "Using the enemies own lair to Train to fight him. lead the way Harry."

Five minutes later Harry was standing in the girls bathroom on the second floor with his instructors behind him. He walked up to a sink in the middle of the room that had never work and fingered the snake carved on the side absent mindedly. "This is it." He told them before stepping back and staring at the snake carving. "Open" he hissed in Parseltongue.

The sinks moved around and the sink with the snake on it sank into the ground revealing a tunnel. Harry grinned at the others before jumping into the hole and cheering as he ed down the tunnel. He landed and saw that everything was the same as it had been last time. Rocks littered the floor from where there incompetent second year teacher botched up a memory course, causing the tunnel to cave in.

Harry turned around and smiled as he heard the others fall out of the tunnel and collapse on the ground. Tonks was the first to recover and looked surprisedly around the chamber they had fallen into. "Where are we?" she asked with wide eyes.

'This is the Secret Chamber that Salazar Slytherin built into the castle so that his heir could complete his goal of purging the school of those not of pure blood." Everyone was looking around with plain awe on their faces. He led everyone forward and they all pushed the fallen rocks out of the road with their wands before they continued into depths of the chamber.

Harry ordered a large door covered in snake emblems to open in parseltongue and they stepped into the main room where he had killed the basilisk. "Phew, what's that smell?" Tonks said with her face shriveled up. "Probably the carcass of a filthy big snake." Harry said wryly. Everyone but Dumbledore looked each other in surprise. 'That's right' Harry thought 'wasn't common knowledge I killed a basilisk at the age of twelve.'

Harry looked around the main room and it was still exactly how he remembered it. The large snake shaped stone pillars lead down the room until they reached a large Large statue of Salazar Slytherins head. Light poured down from nowhere to spotlight the statue making it the center of the room.

Harry walked toward the statue and stopped when he saw something laying on the ground. It was a thin silver necklace with a small heart on the end. Harry thought it must be Ginny's and put it in his pocket to give it back to her later.

"Well this is it. It would be perfect if we could make it into a room of requirement as such. I would like to be able to access this area as it is now though because it would make a perfect training maze for the DA." The professors nodded and began to walk around looking over the chamber. Harry stood by watching as they got rid of the body of the basilisk and then start casting charms around the area.

A few hours later Harry was sitting in the common room finishing his transfiguration homework when the Weasleys walked in. they had come to spend some time with Ron and Ginny because Percy was missing and Harry and Hermione thought it best to leave them be.

After walking into the common room the twins looked around and immediately spotted Harry. Harry heard them coming and turned around just as they reached him. "Hey guys, hows it going?" He asked as cheerfully as he could. The twins grinned at him happily before talking. "Harry could we please talk to you in your dorm?" Harry looked warily between them before rising and leading them up to the dorm.

"What is it?" He asked cautiously. It was rarely a good sign when the twins decided that something they were going to say or do needed to be discussed in private. 'Oh I wish they would stop grinning like that.'. the twins sat on the end of Harry's bed before Fred began to talk.

"Harry we have been speaking to professor Lupin and it seems that you have been keeping an amazing secret from us." Harry looked at him worried about where this was leading to. "It seems that you thought that you needed to hide from us the identity of the Marauders."

"And we thought , My Harry has been keeping something big from us. But we'll forgive him, considering he helped to fund our shop last year. but then we got to thinking now that we are gone why not pass our legacy on? Why not pass it on to the only living descendent of the of the masterful prongs?" Harry looked at them worried as devious grins spread across their faces. "What are you two saying?"

The twins pulled a package each from behind their backs and put them infront of Harry. "Harry this is a complete set of our lines. We would like you to put it to good use since we no longer can." Harry looked at the packages. "go on then open them." George told him.

Harry ripped the paper off the packages to find inside two small boxes. He looked at the top where there was a handprint. "These are our privacy boxes. No one can get in unless you configure their hand print into it. To do that you must first configure it to you so put your hand on the hand print and say 'I solemnly swear I am up to no good'" Harry looked at them and they shrugged. "We made that the password on your ones because of the marauder thing." Harry nodded and did as he was told.

"I solemnly swear I am up to no good." He said with his hand placed on the print. He felt a slight tingling under his finger tips and the box shook a little before growing to be about the size of Harry's trunk. He looked on in awe as then the lid sprung open to reveal what was roughly the size of his bedroom back at number four.

"How the hell did you two do this?" He yelled by accident. They started chuckling before George answered "With ease dear friend with ease. So if you want to configure other people into that you put your hand on there with theirs on top and say 'Partners in crime' you can have as many people as you want there. This one is full of our products but the other one is empty and for your use as you see fit. When you want to lock them put your hand on and say 'Mischief managed'"

Harry thanked them before they left and thought about how he was going to use the other box. He thought turning it into a private room would be the best idea.
***

The next day Harry was up before anyone else. He walked down to Dumbledore's office and borrowed the pensieve. He took it up to the room of requirement and began to prepare his thoughts for the lesson. He put in the memory of Voldemort's return and took a book off the shelf.

The book was on trap spells. Harry thought it would be a good thing to focus on in the DA this year since they had a decent DADA teacher. He took books off the shelf that would teach him how to create realistic illusions of Dark creatures and evil wizards. The only difference would be that they could not kill anything real.

Harry flicked his wand and said the incantation "Illusio Draconus!" an illusion of a small dragon flicked into existence before disappearing. It had resembled the baby Dragon called Norbert that Hagrid had mothered in their first year.

He practiced the charm for another half hour, eventually being able to hold the illusion for a few minutes before it flickered from existence.

He walked down to the great hall for breakfast and spread the word about the DA meeting, sending work to bring anyone who had lost someone or who wanted to come. He felt that they all needed to know about this.

He sat down at the Gryffindor table and smiled softly at the Weasleys. They really did deserve better. Percy had really hurt them all but when it came to it they all put it aside because they loved him.

Harry often wondered what it would have been like growing up with the Weasleys. He thought that he would have always been happy and would have never had to have known what it was like to be abused.

After a moment he realized he was staring and went back to his breakfast. Today they were going to see something he wish he never had to show them, but as things were in the world today they had to know, they had to realize how the second war began.

He choked down his eggs and bacon and went back up to the room of requirement. He took the pensieve and placed it on a pedestal in the middle of the room. He moved his wand around and found his memory and caused it to float on top of the shiny liquid as he waited for the DA to arrive.

After everyone was in the room he held his hands to the air and called for quiet. "Everyone, I have called this meeting today in light of the recent attack to show you something I feel everyone needs to know. You all need to understand how the Darklord came back and in watching this memory of mine we can see why some deatheaters follow his orders. You will see some things in here that I don't understand myself, so please do not ask me what they mean." Harry Paused for a moment before continuing. "Now if you do not wish to see the dark lords return I ask you to please leave now and no one will hold anything against you." No one moved and Harry nodded. "Then let us begin."

Harry swirled his wand in the memory and pulled it out into the room. Suddenly all that were present stood in a Graveyard. Harry walked over to a ring of people and sat on a tombstone next to the one that the memory Harry was tied to.

He looked around and saw Wormtail standing before him and felt a small pang of curiosity. Where had he been last year? through everything that happened he did not show himself once. That cant be good.

Harry rose and stood before the DA, all staring at him with looks of surprise on their faces. "This is the graveyard where Voldemort rose again. It will start in a moment. The cauldron over there will be used to resurrect him." He looked over at Wormtail and pointed to a bundle in his arms. "The bundle in that guys arms, looks like a baby, that's lord Voldemort before he was able to get his body back. A few years before he was nothing but a spirit but he somehow managed to get himself a body of sorts."

Harry continued to point things out around as things began to happen. People were amazed when Wormtail took some of Harry's blood to add to the potion and there was a collective gasp and a few people almost threw up as he then cut his own hand off to put in the cauldron.

Harry looked on with empty eyes as he relived this night. He again explained small things of importance as Voldemort rose from the cauldron and called his followers before him. Harry explained what was happening as the dome surrounded him and Voldemort when they had tried to duel. After the memory Harry had taken the portkey and disappeared the real Harry raised his wand and cast away the memory back into the pensieve.

As the Room of Requirement came into focus around them all eyes turned to Harry. He looked around the room and began to talk. "All things that you just saw are welcome to be discussed with people you know because people need to understand how this all happened. As you can see the deatheaters, Voldemort's own servants are more afraid of him than we are. He holds control threw the fear he pushes into the hearts of others, as long as we can deny this fear the control he has over many will fail him. Before you leave I would like to thank you all for coming. The attack yesterday effected us all, some more than others, and I ask you all to look after each other and at any sign of a problem at the school or any where else, get word to Dumbledore immediately."

Harry walked out the door and headed back to the tower. He grabbed his broom and leapt out the window taking flight immediately. He thought about being Quidditch Captain and made a decision. He could not do it. He had to much responsibility already and he thought about Fred and George asking him to continue their legacy and had a great idea of how he can prepare himself for battle.
