In a part of England known as Little Whingling, a teenage boy sat on his bed reading a letter. The boy was named Harry Potter and the letter was from none other than Albus Dumbledore.

July 11, 1997

Dear Harry,

First of all, I must apologize for my actions from last year. At my age, I tried to do what was best for you but ended up doing the opposite and doing something even worse. I hope that we can put that beside us and focus on the main issue at hand, Lord Voldemort. In two weeks, members of the Order will take you back to Grimmauld Place where you will officially become a member. This way, you can stay up to date with Voldemort's actions a bit better. Even though certain Order members have objected, the majority have allowed you to join.

I also have a feeling that you are still thinking about Sirius' death or the prophecy. Let me advise you to not worry about those things for now. There will be a time to face Voldemort later on but this is not the time and this is not the place. Losing a loved one is hard, especially someone who was a father figure to you. I advise you to try to grieve but you have to stay strong. You can rely on your friends Miss Ginny Weasley, Mr. Ron Weasley and Miss Hermione Granger. With their help, you will be able to defeat Voldemort when the time comes.

Remember Harry, love is one of the strongest emotions a human can ever feel. Love is also an emotion that can conquer all. You must keep that in mind when you and Voldemort face off and fight.

On a happier note, your lifetime Quidditch ban has been lifted and your broom is now in my possession. You will be on the Gryffindor house team for the upcoming term. Also, members of your DA organization have an average of an E for their Defense against the Dark Arts OWL according to early reports. Of course, according to early reports, Madam Umbridge has tried to take credit for it, but I have assured the Ministry that it was your teaching.

Sincerely,

Albus Dumbledore

Harry finished Dumbledore's letter and felt hot tears start to fall down his cheeks. Ever since he had gone back to Privet Drive, Harry had constantly been thinking about Sirius' death, the prophecy and Hermione. Harry was starting to realize that he wanted him and Hermione to be more than friends but he was also aware that Ron might be a disruption. With a sigh, Harry walked down the stairs to do some gardening for the Dursleys.

Hermione Granger was at home still thinking about what her mom had said when the doorbell rang. She opened the door and gasped when she saw none other than Bellatrix Lestrange and Draco Malfoy standing at the doorway.

"Granger, may we come in?" Draco asked courteously.

Hermione scowled for a minute and considered shutting the door in their face when Bellatrix Lestrange spoke.

"Please, let us in and hear what we have to say at least before you kick us out."

"Okay, say what you have to say and then leave" Hermione said, holding the door open for Bellatrix and Draco.

Bellatrix took a deep breath before speaking. "Darling Draco here tells me you are Hermione Granger right?"

"Yes" Hermione said, giving Draco a dirty look.

"Well, Hermione I have some news to tell you. Over sixteen years ago, I met Remus Lupin in the Hog's Head one night. Both of us were not supposed to be there but we were. I tried to get Remus to join the dark side but I failed. Instead we had a one night stand and as a result, I became pregnant with a daughter. That daughter is you Hermione" Bellatrix said, wiping the tears from her eyes.

"You're saying that Professor Lupin is my father and you are my mother?" an extremely stunned Hermione asked.

"Hermione, you are the daughter of me and Remus; so, what you said is true" Bellatrix replied.

Both Hermione and Draco stood stunned by the news that Bellatrix had given to them. However, Draco was the first to recover.

"So why did you bring me here?" he asked.

"Ah, Draco I want you to marry my daughter Hermione and raise your kids in the dark arts" Bellatrix said.

Both Hermione and Draco both choked when they heard that Bellatrix wanted them to marry each other, after a minute, Hermione spoke.

"But if I'm your daughter, then why didn't you or Remus raise me?" Hermione asked Bellatrix.

"Ah, Hermione, at the time Remus and I were on separate sides of the war. We couldn't agree on whether to raise you with the dark arts or not so we chose to leave you with a family that could hide and protect you."

"So you want me to marry Granger?" Draco asked Bellatrix.

"Yes, Draco darling. With you as a teacher, your kids will become well educated in the dark arts" Bellatrix said.

"Okay that's it. Get out both of you right now. You've said your piece now stick to your end of the agreement and leave" Hermione said, holding the door open for Bellatrix and Draco.

"I hope you think about what I just said my daughter" Bellatrix said as she and Draco walked out the door. Hermione slammed the door once they had left and then collapsed to the floor, crying.

Harry Potter started to feel the sun have an effect on him now. Sighing, Harry took off his shirt to reveal a skinny and muscular upper body that was quite different than the one he had back when he first attended Hogwarts. He continued with his work then heard some giggling from his neighbors. Harry looked up to see a girl around his age with shoulder length light brown hair and blue eyes in a tank top and shorts, she was staring at Harry with a look of envy and awe. Harry went over to the fence separating the Dursleys and their neighbors to meet the girl.

"Hi, I'm Harry Potter" he said, sticking out his hand.

The girl giggled some more before she spoke. "I'm Megan Addams" she said shaking Harry's hand.

"Um, I don't want to be rude but why were you giggling before?" he asked.

"You are so silly. I was watching you ever since you came out of the house. Don't you know how gorgeous you are especially with your shirt off?" she said with a dreamy look on her face.

"Um, okay I have to continue with the gardening."

"Harry, please don't leave me here by myself. I'm lonely and I want to talk with someone around my age especially someone good looking like you."

Harry was tempted to stay but he knew the Dursleys would most likely become angry if he slacked off. "Sorry Mary I have to go" he said, giving her a small wave and continuing to work on the garden; and when he had finished, went inside to take a shower. When Harry emerged, he noticed a short note awaited on his desk.

Harry,

Come downstairs through the front door after you are done packing. Me, Tonks and Moody are here to take you back to Grimmauld Place.

Remus Lupin

Harry read the note then packed all of his clothing, books and other assorted items in his trunk. He also took Hedwig's cage and then walked out dragging his trunk behind him. "Aunt Petunia, Uncle Vernon, I'm leaving" Harry shouted downstairs. Within minutes, Uncle Vernon had gone to the front door.

"Who the hell allowed you to leave boy?" Uncle Vernon asked.

"Remember the people who spoke with you at King's Cross back in June Uncle Vernon? That's who" Harry said.

"You are not going to leave this house until I allow you to do so!" he yelled.

Suddenly, the front door opened with a bang and Tonks and Moody came inside, looking angry. Tonks and Moody scanned the room and then noticed Uncle Vernon speaking to Harry.

"Dursley, the boy goes with us" Moody growled.

"Oh no he won't! I still have gardening to do and the boy is going to do it" Uncle Vernon yelled.

"Oh shut up Dursley," Tonks said before winking at Harry. "Wotcher Harry!" she said brightly.

Uncle Vernon looked around nervously before he spoke. "Okay, okay the boy can go. Get him out of my sight!" Uncle Vernon said, his face starting to become red.

Tonks used a levitating spell to lift Harry's trunk and walked out the door. Moody grabbed Hedwig's cage before indicating for Harry to leave. Soon all three of them were outside where Remus was waiting by a 1993 BMW. Remus smiled when he saw Harry and then spoke.

"Hey Harry, what took you so long?" Remus asked.

"Damn asshole Dursley wouldn't let the boy go. Mentioned something about how there's gardening to do only because his lazy fucking ass won't do it" Moody growled, as Tonks put Harry's trunk in the car trunk.

"Watch your language Moody, there are women around" Tonks said.

Moody merely grunted and went into the back seat of the car along with Harry. Tonks went into the driver's seat and Remus sat in the passenger seat.

"So Harry, what have you been thinking about?" Remus asked.

"I'm still thinking about certain things. I'm also worried about my OWL's because I'm afraid that I didn't get the necessary grade and can't become an auror" Harry replied.

"What don't you think you did good in?" Moody asked.

"Potions" Harry replied.

Moody stared at Harry for a few minutes with both eyes. "Who told you that potions was required for becoming an auror?" Moody asked.

"Well when I had my career conference with McGonagall, I was told that I needed to take potions" Harry said.

"That's not true Harry" Remus said.

"Yeah, I'm pretty sure Moody or Remus can tell you how it works Harry" Tonks said.

"See Harry- there are some classes which are considered the necessary classes to become an auror. You can take three out of four of these classes, which are transfiguration, charms, Defense and potions. Then you have to take four more minor subjects such as runes, muggle studies, herbology, care for magical creatures and divination. Or you can take all four of the necessary classes and three minor classes" Remus said.

"That's cool, then I don't have to be stuck with Snape" Harry said thoughtfully.

A silence fell over the car. A few minutes later, Harry found himself outside of Grimmauld Place. 'Well I guess it's time for me to go in' Harry thought as he went inside.

Harry immediately saw Mrs. Weasley who smiled and hugged Harry when she saw him enter through the door.

"Oh Harry it's so good to see you!" Mrs. Weasley squealed.

When Mrs. Weasley released him from his hug, Harry looked around. Grimmauld Place truly had changed since last year. The heads of Kreacher's ancestors were no longer on the wall nor was the picture of Sirius' mom. Harry then noticed a girl with red hair run down the stairs along with a taller red headed boy walking down behind her.

"HARRY!" Ginny squealed as she jumped into his arms.

"Ginny, calm down. Harry's only been here for a few minutes and you're already squeezing him to death" Ron said, as he shook hands with Harry.

"You're all excited to see me?" Harry asked with a grin on his face.

"Of course we are silly" Ginny said, looking at Harry with a dreamlike expression similar to Luna Lovegood.

"Harry, you're in the same room with Ron just like last year" Mrs. Weasley said after she had dealt with Tonks, Moody and Lupin who dropped off Harry's stuff upstairs.

"Oi and Potter, there's a meeting that will be starting in ten minutes and Dumbledore wants you there" Moody said, joining the conversation.

"Oh mom can we go to the meeting too?" Ron and Ginny asked at the same time.

"Of course you may not go" Mrs. Weasley said, giving Ron and Ginny a look that clearly said there would be no debating the matter.

Ron and Ginny stormed up to their room upset that Harry could attend the Order meeting while they could not. Mrs. Weasley and Harry then went into the kitchen to participate in the meeting.
