Chapter 16

Fawkes's Third Feather

Over the next few days, everywhere Harry went Krystal seemed to be there saying, "Thank you Harry!"  Harry, Ron, Hermione, and Pan were heading for dinner when Hermione turned around and ran back towards Potions.

"I think I forgot something," she called over her shoulder.

"I'll go with her," Ron said as he ran after her.  Harry turned around to go to dinner and bumped into Pansy Parkinson.  Her friends, Desiree Icemen, Miranda Sanchez, and Ginger Snap, were behind her.

"Watch where you're going, Potter.  Or you might being going somewhere unpleasant."  Pansy and her friends went away laughing their heads off.

"Ignore them," said Pan.

"That's what I've been doing," Harry replied.

Dinner was delicious.  They had turkey, chicken, rice, muffins, apples, grapes, and vanilla pudding.  Ron and Hermione didn't have any, though.  They were still gone when it was time for bed.  Harry, who needed his Invisibility Cloak to visit Myrtle, was surprised to find that it was gone.  He searched all over the dorm for it, though he never found it.

In the morning, Ron wasn't in his bed.  Harry entered the Great Hall to find Ron and Hermione sitting side-by-side in deep conversation.

"Where were y'all last night?  And did you know the Invisibility Cloak is gone?"

"It is?" asked Ron, who didn't look as surprised as Harry thought.  Hermione, on the other hand, looked so surprised Harry thought it was Christmas Day.

"Harry, aren't you going to look for it?  Maybe you should use the Summoning Charm…  Or tell Professor McGonagall…  No, you don't want anyone else to know…"

"Thanks Hermione, but I don't think anyone could steal it if they aren't a Gryffindor…  And I really don't think a Gryffindor would steal…"

Later that day, Harry went rummaging through his trunk again.  He was about to close it when…  There it was!  His Invisibility Cloak was taped to the top.  There was a note hanging off that read:

Thanks for letting me use this.

From,

I.O.U.

Harry wondered where the note had come from.  'Oh well,' thought Harry.  'At least I got my cloak back.'

The next morning, Harry, Ron, Hermione, and Pan all got mail.  Each letter was the same.  They read:

                    At four o'clock p.m. meet me in my office.

                                       Dumbledore

At four o'clock, Harry and the others went down to Dumbledore's office.

"Does anyone know the password?" Harry asked.

"Butterbeer," Hermione said, but nothing happened.

"Uh, Dumbledore rocks?" Ron guessed.  The gargoyle didn't move.

"Lemon drop?" asked Pan.  The gargoyle jumped out of the way to let them pass.  As they went up the stairs, Harry thought about asking Zoe if…

"Harry, watch where you're going," Hermione said.  Harry, who hadn't been looking where he was going, had bumped into Hermione.

"Come in all of you."  Dumbledore had opened the door.  Everyone took a chair.

"I have exciting news.  Fawkes gave another feather.  Isn't it wonderful?" Dumbledore told them smiling.

"Professor, you didn't turn it into a wand, did you?" Harry asked.  If the wand was on Voldemort's side…

"Why of course!  But not to worry, it was sent to mister Ollivander at once.  I don't know what else was in the wand, so I didn't label it."

"Perhaps, this is the wand?" Pan asked, pulling out the mysterious wand.

"Why yes!  That's it!  Good job!"

"Mr. Ollivander gave it to me."

"Well, you can all go back to your business.  Ah, I need to mail Rusty…"
