Chapter 10 DA
Harry turned to Ron and Hermione.
"What are we going to do?"
"You will do nothing, Mr. Potter. But you will come in here." The trio jumped and watched as Severus Snape limped to them, Professor Dumbledore in tow.
"I am guessing that you three have found out the great news?" Dumbledore said, his eyes twinkling madly.
/Oh yeah, great./ Harry thought sarcasticly.
"May I ask what is so great Professor?" Hermione said.
"My dear girl, Sirius is alive."
"He may be alive but he is with Voldemort, I doubt Snape-"
"Professor Snape, Harry."
"-is going to be able to get him out."
"And why do you think that Potter?"
Harry glared at his potions Master and said nothing.
"Professor Dumbledore, will you keep on working on the Living Potion?" Hermione asked.
"Well I do not see any point in continuing Miss Granger."
Harry stared at his Headmaster.
/What the hell is that supposed to mean? If he managed to get the potion to work he could save thousands of lives./
"Professor, don't get your hopes up." He said aloud and walked away.
Ron and Hermione stared after Harry until he was completely gone.
"Professor, do you think that there is a way we can get Sirius out of Voldemort's dungeon?" Ron asked.
"Mr. Weasley, once I have formed a plan I will be glad to tell you, but right now nothing is certain." Snape said.
"Severus, if you will follow me to my office. Miss Granger, Mr. Weasley, I think you should go and see how Harry is doing." Professor Dumbledore cut in.
"Yes, Professor." The students said.
****************************************************
"Harry? Are you here?" Harry turned his head and watched as the door began to open.
All he wanted was a quiet place to think. After hearing that Sirius might be alive and stuck in a smelly dungeon Harry wanted nothing but try to really make sense out of as why Voldemort would keep Sirius alive. And most of all, how did he get him out from behind the Veil. Did Sirius even fall in? Was it all an illusion?
"Harry?" Harry brought his dull green eyes that used to be filled with life once up and stared at Ginny Weasley.
"Hey Ginny." Harry said quietly.
"Harry everyone's been looking for you." She said, sitting down next to him.
"Why? How long was I gone?"
"About three hours. When Hermione and Ron came into the common room and asked if you were back, everyone said that they didn't see you. Ron and Hermione, worry warts as they are, got out the map and looked for you. We found you here, they wanted to come to you, but I told them I should go. Nice place." Ginny added in as an after thought.
Harry shrugged, but couldn't help but smile. Ron and Hermione were great friends, always there by his side.
"Ginny why did you tell them that you wanted to speak to me?"
"Um, well I just thought you wanted some company that didn't push you too much. Ron and Hermione know your secrets and they can pick up on your signals. They can push you to tell them what is bothering you, but I can just sense them Harry. The signals you send are strong and the strongest one is lonliness."
Harry stared at her. "Why do you think that?"
"Harry, something happened to you, Ron and Hermione this morning that got you way too upset. What's wrong?"
Harry was couldn't decide whether to tell her or not.
"I just, its, well I just heard news this morning that Sirius might be alive and held prisoner in Voldemort's dungeons. I'm afraid that Voldemort will somehow find out that I know and will try to use Sirius against me because I still haven't given him my answer about joining him."
"Harry, you can't let that bastard ruin everything for you, you've got to trust in yourself and believe that everything will turn out all right."
"Hmm, I wish I was that positive."
"Silly you can be, you just got to believe."
"Ginny have you ever heard the saying "Seeing is believing"?"
"Yes."
"Well I'll only believe Sirius is alive if I see him with my own eyes."
"But Harry-"
"Snape said that he can get Sirius out of that dungeon, and if he does, than the life debt he owed my father will be gone. If someone is not impersonating Sirius to test Snape's loyalty."
Ginny didn't say anything to that, but Harry could tell that she wanted something said.
"So Ginny, have anything new for the school year?"
"No, but I was going to ask you about DA. You said something about it in the summer, and then when we came back to school, so whats it going to be?"
"Ugh, not you too! I don't know whats going to happen with DA. There's too much going on these days, with all the extra classes Dumbledore put on me I don't even have time to sleep."
"Harry DA helped us so much last year, even Neville is doing good in DADA this year. We should start it again, and this time all the houses should be invited."
"You're right Ginny, I guess we'll start DA again, but it's only going to be on Saturday's, I don't have much time, maybe Ron and Hermione can do it for me if I don't make it."
"Harry you don't look so busy, you have as many classes as the rest of us."
Harry looked at Ginny and smirked.
"Sorry I forgot you don't know. Only Ron and Hermione were allowed to know. I don't think it will hurt if you know."
"Well?"
"I have a regular schedule during the day, but at night I have to meet Dumbledore to train my powers. I've been developing new ones almost every week and I can't control them without training. Dumbledore helps me and sometimes the portraits give me advice, but they're boring and most of their advices are a little behind the times."
"Well since you can't be in DA evey time we have a meeting, I could ask Hermione to substitute."
"That's what I was planning."
"Oh okay then." Ginny smiled and stood up. She drew her wand out and summoned her coin.
She muttered a couple of words and the coin glowed for a few seconds. Harry looked puzzingly at her and reached out his hand and summoned his own coin. When it fell into his hand he glanced down at it and watched as it glowed just like Ginny's.
/Next DA meeting: Dec. 3/
"So you set up a date. I guess we really are back on." Harry smiled.
