DISCLAIMER: I own nothin.
Harry landed with a hard thump at the entrance of the ministry of magic by the fountain of magical bretheran.
Moody,Remus,Kingsley,and Dumbledore were already there and after he heard two loud cracks he saw someone he didn't know and a man he recognized as Sturgis Podmore running up to the group.
"Albus there on the ninth floor," Moody said, his face one of terror.
"It is more seious than i thought." "We must hurry." he said as they all began running to the lift.Two more loud cracks sounded as two more Order members Harry knew as Elphias Doge and Bill Weasley apparated next to them in the lift.
"Is this all thats coming Albus?" Moody asked as his magial eye swiveled to the ninth floor.
"Yes,Alastor im afraid so."
"But dear god Dumbledore, there are at least fifteen of them." he said panick stricken.
"I know Alastor,i know but this is all we could get."
"Dumbledore," Lupin said "We will be out-numbered two-to-one."
"There overwelming odds." Podmore argued.
"Put me down for three.' Harry said
"Aye, good on ya boy." Moody growled. "Put me down for three as we-" but before he finished his sentence he glanced up and his face seemed to darken even more.
"O no Dumbledore,Voldemort just apparated above us."
"Ah Harry and me can handle him." Dumbledore stateed calmly." "It would seem as though we have reached our destination,wands out everyone," he said firmly.
Everyone did as they were told and whipped their wands out as the lift door opened to reveal at least fifteen death eaters and Voldemort himself,along with what looked like captured ministry officials and the minister.
"Why have you come here tonight Tom?" Dumbledore asked calmly.
"Dumbledore,im glad you could join," he hissed back in his cold voice. "I believe you know why we are here,to retreive the Veil of darkness."
Suddenly as Harry looked around he saw they were in the same room the veil was in,and as he looked up he gasped in shock to see the Veil on the raised stone dais.
"You shouldn't have come tonight Tom. " Dumbledore said as his power radiated off him.
"Why is that Dumbledore,i could use some action." "avada kedavra" He yelled at Dumbledore who quickly moved aside.This was it the battle had begun and he was on his first mission.
Curses whizzed about Harry's head as he battled with a nearby death eater. "turbulentas" he shouted.His turbulent wind curse successfully knocked the death eater out as he hit the cold stone floor. Dumbledore was battling with three death eaters,Kingsley with two,as were Remus and Moody.Tonks was battling one alongside Podmore who also had one,and Bill was over towards the entrance battling one.Three more made their way over to Harry and he began battling all of them.
"Incendio exertimus" he shoued at one to is right but he blocked it.
"crucio" one shouted as another shouted " avada kedavra" at the same time. "Repellus protego" he yelled to block the killing curse as he dodged the other.Next he shouted four spells in succession,"turbulentas" , "silencio" , "incendio exertimus" , "potrificas totalus". each of his spells hit a death eater.
Now as most of the death eaters had been rounded up,Harry made his way over to Voldemort followed by Dumbledore.
"Tom," Harry started as his usual emerald eyes glowed a scary blue. "Let us finish this."
"Do not use my muggle name." he spat "AVADA KEDAVRA"
"Repellus protego" Harry said. "Let us duel."
Harry took the jango dueling position as him and Voldemort began their duel.
"AVADA KEDAVRA" Voldemort hissed
"Repellus protego","incendio exertimus" "silencio' "turbulentas" Harry shouted before Voldemort could utter another word.
His sheild spell successfully sent his killing curse back at him which Voldemort had to jump to the ground in order to avoid and all his other spells hit him causing him fall to the ground,keep silent and again be swept from the ground as his turbulent wind curse made contact.It looked as though Voldemort was out unconscious but he slowly got up looking white faced and furious.
"YOU THINK YOUR LITTLE CHILD CURSES CAN BEAT ME." "AVADA KEDAVRA" He screamed at the top of his lungs. Harry dove out of the way but before he could get up,Voldemort had his wand right at his chest.
"Haha, Potter i have again won." "Crucio"
It hit Harry right in his chest and he again felt the familiar pain like a tousand knives were peircing his flesh.No matter how many times he felt the curse he would never get used to it. But just as Harry was about to lose consciousness,Dumbledore ended the curse as he hit Voldemort with a curse of his own.Dumbledore stepped in front of Harry as did Remus,Kingsley,and Moody.The rest were still battling death eaters or unconscious.
"Im sorry Tom you will not hurt this boy today." Dumbledore said.
"Maybe not today Dumbledore, but one day" he spat as he disapparated, freeing his death eaters with a flick of his wand.Just as the Order members were going to round them up again they followed their masters lead and disapparated as well.Dumbledore went around reviving and uncursing the other members and then began to unjinx the ministry officials.
"Harry take this portkey" Dumbledore started picking up a peice of rubble as he said "portus" . "Take it and wait for me to get there ok."
"Ok sir."
Harry took the port-key and he felt the tug at his navel and then his feet hit the ground.He was in the kitchen at Grimmauld Place.Dumbledore appeared moments later looking old and worn,his tired eyes showing him for what he was,an old man,not the same one who won Voldemort in duels and not the one who defeated any other dark wizard for that matter.
"Harry do you know why they were in the department of mysteries tonight?"
"Voldemort said he was after the veil." "But why?"
"Well Harry because if he has that he could wipe out all of existence." "He could bring forth death and make himself stronger or he can give life to the dead." "It is imperative that we stop him before he gets it or he could become unstoppable."
"Sir how can we do that?"
"We work Harry, we work." 'It is more important now that you find your power to defeat him even sooner."
With that he disappeared from the room.Harry got up from his chair and walked into the drawing room knowing that he wouldn't be able to sleep.When he walked in he saw he wasn't alone,Ginny Weasley was sitting on the couch looking out the window.
"O hello Harry" she said when she relized he was there.
"Hi Ginny."
"What happened out there?' She asked as she flung herself at him.
"We had to go to the Ministry of Magic,Voldemort was there and we dueled death eaters." "You know Ginny if you're going to be my friend you need to say his name." He added as she flinched at Voldemorts name.
"I know Harry,im just so scared" she said as tears filled her eyes.
"Ginny, i would never let anything happen to any of you."
"I know Harry but it isn't your job to stop Vol-Voldemort."
"You said his name."
"Yeah i figured i should start practicing."
"Well Ginny,actually it is my job to defeat Voldemort,you remember that prophecy in the Department of Mysteries?"
"Yes,what about it?"
"It was about me."
"But how do you know it smashed?"
"That was only a recording,Dumbledore told me what it said when i was in his office."
"What did it say."
"The one with power to vanquish the Dark Lord approaches....Born to those who have thrice defied him,born as the seventh month dies...And the Dark Lord will mark him as his equal,but he will have power the Dark Lord knows not...And either must die at the hand of the other for neither can live while the other survives....The one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord will be born as the seventh month dies...." Harry finished with greif and fear in his voice.
"Harry i always somehow knew it would be you who got rid of him,but you won't be alone,im going to be with you and so will Hermionie, and Ron, and even Neville and Luna like last year."
"Ginny,thank you."
"You're welcome Harry, we will always be here." "Im going up to bed see you tommorrow."
"Goodnight Ginny"
"Goodnight Harry.
Ginny crept up the stairs carefully so no one would hear her,and after about five minutes Harry followed suite.He went upstairs and quickly got into the shower and let the hot water beat on his body.All his built up tension seemed to release as the water massaged his aching muscles relaxing him.After ten minutes he stepped out of the shower and dried himself off,and put on his pajamas and got into bed.The clean sheets felt like velvet under his skin and soon after that thought he fell into a troubled sleep.He quickly found him self in the same dark room with Voldemort in his chair,only now he was watching from above.
"Lucias,my patience wears thin if you value your life you will get this done quickly." "I want them in position ten minutes before they get there." "I want twenty dementors,and as many death eaters you can get."
"Yes my Lord but the boy has grown in power maybe we should plan this better."
"DO NOT QUESTION MY AUTHORITY, "CRUCIO" He spat.
Harry woke the next morning to a person shaking him rather roughly.
"Harry wake up,mum says we're going to Diagon alley today so you and Dumbledore are starting early."
"Ok you can stop shaking me Ron."
"O sorry mate." "Hurry and get ready." He quickly hurried out of the room leaving a very disgruntled Harry behind.He quickly got dressed and put on his best wizards robes,hung the medallion around his neck and stowed his wand in his pocket,and rushed down stairs to a whole table full of Order members.Among them were Kingsley,Remus,Dumbledore,Arthur, and Moody.
"Hello Harry," Dumbledore greeted. "Are you ready for an early training session?"
"Yes im ready."
"Well lets go then" he said leading the way to the drawing room.
"Well today we will be learning a more powerful form of the reducto curse,very useful,a curse that shoots silver darts at the enemy,a power increasing charm which will increase your power for one curse, and a more practical dueling spell its a spell that will bind your enemy in an energy draining bind only you can lift." "We will start with the reductor curse." "There are three levels,the first you know and the one im going to teach you." "The incantation is "diffindus reducto" without the wand first then we try it."
"Diffindus reducto"
"Ok i think you have the incantation right try it."
"Diffindus reducto" he shouted as Dumbledore hurled a transfigured boulder at him as he successfully demolished it on is first try.
"Great Harry,you never cease to amaze me." "Ok the next spell i already told you shoots silver darts,its incantation is "spiculumi argentum" go ahead and try it.(1)
"Spiculumi argentum" he shouted but only a feeble dart shot out.
"Ok Harry its ok it took me three days to learn this,try again,and concentrate."
"Spiculumi argentum" he shouted as he concentrated all his power to his wand. A huge stream of big darts shot out of his wand at dumbledore who had trouble sheilding it but managed.
"Harry you are accelerating at a very fast rate."
"Thank you sir."
"Not at all my boy." "Now the energy increasing hex is useful its incantation is "ennervus energo ultima" cast the incantation while pointing your wand at yourself and then cast a stunner at this boggart." He said taking out a cage from the dresser and opening it to reveal Voldemort.
"Ennervus energo ultima" he said with his wand at himslef.A white light shone and he felt his power rise. "STUPEFY" He shouted.
A blinding red beam surrounded the room and knocked the boggart Voldemort out and Dumbledore himself.
It took three ennervate spells and a "finite incantatum" spell to wake him.
"Im so sorry Professor," Harry said as his Professor got up.
"Oh no it's ok Harry,it's all part of training." "Now for the last spell for today,the incantation is "accius energo totalus" try it on the boggart again." He let the boggart out and again it took the form of Voldemort.
"Accius energo totalus" Harry yelled pointing his wand at the boggart and it immediately fell to the ground rigid as a board and drained of all energy.
"Well done for today my boy,but we must get going we are leaving for diagon alley in twenty minutes." "The Order will be there but i still want you to keep an eye out."
"Ok sir i will."
"See you later Harry." He swept out of the room and dissapeared with a crack. So Harry ran to the kitchen knowing Molly would have his head if he was late.
"Harry dear we will be flooing to the leaky cauldron in five minutes come here."
Harry stepped behind Ron,Ginny,and Hermionie placing a quick kiss on her lips before they were off.Harry was the last one to land and the rest were already going into diagon alley.He hurried to catch up to them and Molly handed him a letter from hogwarts.
"Harry dear this came a day ago but it never got to you because it could never find you,its your o.w.l.s.Theres also another letter under it,but i didn't read it,here you go." "Meet us at flourean fortiscues when your done."
"Thank you Molly."
"What does it say Harry,read it." Ron urged.
Harry slipped open the letter and found the letter under the book list.
"Dear Mr.Potter
It is my distinct pleasure to inform you that you have been chosen as the new Gryffendor quidditch captain.It is your duty to schedule practices,and hold new team tryouts.Please contact me if you need any information."
Harry was shocked to say the least,he never thought he would make quidditch captain.
"Great job mate," Ron said clapping him on the back.
"Harry it says something else keep reading." Hermionie stated.
"Dear Mr.Potter it is also my pleasure to inform you that in light of recent hightened security there will also be two more heads,along with the regular prefects.One head girl from seventh year and one from sixth,one head boy from seventh and sixth year.you have been chosen as head boy for sixth year along with Hermionie Granger from Gryffindor house.
Minerva Mcgonagall Deputy Headmistress of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
If Harry was shocked before he didn't know what he was now.
"Harry we are going to be heads together,isn't it great.?'
"Huh?" "Oh yea great." "Wait when did you know you were made head girl?"
"About a day ago i just never got a chance to tell you." "What did you get on your o.w.l.s?"
"Oh lets see."
"Dear Mr. Potter the following are your scores for your o.w.l.s.
Transfiguration:O
Care of magical creatures:O
Potions:E E

Divination:D

"I am proud to inform you that you have passed the neccessary classes for the job you have chosen.You can also pick three extra
classes from the following choices.
Occlumency/leglimeny
Advance defense against the dark arts
healing classes
special tactics and auror training
everyday hexes and curses.
Please bring this to your head of house on the night of the welcoming feast with your preferred classes."
I think im going to take occlumency/leglimency, advance defense against the dark arts, and special tactics and auror training." Harry said.
"Yea me too,"Hermionie agreed.
"Me too but we better get going we have shopping to do." Ron said.
"It looks like we only have three new books to buy." Hermionie pointed out looking at his letter.
"Advance defense against the darkest of arts" by miranda goshawk
"Advance transfiguration" by Henry Ponshont
"Advance charms in defense."by Alas Stratum.
"Well lets go get these first." Hermionie said.
They walked to flourish and blotts enjoying the sunlight and talking amidley.Harry looked on the rows of books for the ones he needed until he found them all.He took the three sets up there and paid for them.
"Here guys," he said handing Ron and Hermionie their books.
"Oh Harry you didn't buy these for us did you?"
"Yes i thought i would be nice."
"Thanks mate," Ron said
"Harry you really didn't have to."
"Hermionie it's ok I wanted to,now lets go get the rest of our supplies and meet the others at florean fortiscues."
The group made their way to all the stores they needed to go to occasionally stopping to browse,when they were finnally done they made their way to the ice cream parlor.
"Hello you lot" Molly said
"Did you get everything you needed?" Remus asked
"Yes but i still need to go to-"
But the rest of his words were cut off by a loud boom from the other side of the village followed by hundreds of people running away and all Harry could hear was Remus say "Not here"
And then his medallion grew warm,so he pulled out his wand and followed Remus with Molly,Ron,Ginny, and Hermionie hot on their heels.As they closed in on the gap they could see hundreds of black cloaks.Dementors were closing in on diagon alley with death eaters behind them shooting spells of green light .Together they were almost one hundred in number. As a killing curse flew past Harry's head his eyes started to glow blue and his power started to rise.You could feel power emitting off him in heavy waves almost drowning anyone near him.Hermionie was sensing more than the others and it almost overwhelmed her.She could feel his emotions, anger,and sadness, his energy was pouring into her and her eyes began to shine an earthly green.Remus and the others could only stand their in shock and feel the power emitting off the both of them as they took the battle front.Hermionie was no longer scared as knowledge of spells came flying into her head from Harry's.(2).
The enemy was in for a battle they wouldn't forget.
(1), This is a spell from heir of gryffindor by kraeg001.
