I would like to say that Legilimency is a term used by J.K Rowling. It is NOT my own creation.

It was as if he was suddenly in a different place.

It was dark, damp, and dirty. Harry's eyes scanned the room for any sign of movement. He heard whimpering. Suddenly, he saw Peter Pettigrew, kissing the robes of a robed figure, a man. "I'm sorry my Lord, it will not happen again. Next time, we shall succeed. We will get him next time. It is all planned my Lord."

"It will be, or you shall regret it. So, Severus will be in charge. Hogsmede. They will not expect it, and Potter will be there. He will regret ever being born." He smiled evilly and Wormtail flinched.

"Well, My Lord, at least our Death Eaters in Azkaban have escaped, along with our faithful Dementors."

"That's true. They will be of much use."

Suddenly, he felt as though he was being pulled away, dragged. He looked, but they did not seem to notice him there, and then suddenly he was back. Everyone was staring at him, and he found he was on the floor. His scar burned and Dumbledore swept over to him.

"Everyone shall go back to their seats. Mr Potter, please come with me."

Harry left the whispering hall and they were soon in the Headmaster's office.

Dumbledore said the password, (Red Liquorice) and they were both soon in his office.

He motioned for Harry to sit down.

"So Harry, what happened?" Dumbledore asked. His lively blue eyes already seeing right through him, Harry explained everything.

"Well Harry, we already knew about the imminent attack through the Order. We know that he is not expecting resilience and we cannot cancel, for he would suspect us, which is why only fifth years and up will go."

Harry nodded. "Sir, what about Azkaban, the dementors.....did they leave.....what about the Death Eaters?"

"Harry, Harry, relax. Yes, they have, but you are well protected here. We know that Dementors are going to be at Hogsmede, so we need to be very careful."

Harry again nodded.

"That's really all Harry. Unless there is something else you want to ask?"

Harry considered something for a moment. "Well sir, how was I able to see into his mind again. He didn't access mine, so how.?"

"Harry, this is one of magic's great difficulties. It is a rare skill. It is called Legilimency. It is the ability to access other people's minds. I myself can do it, as now can you. Is that all?"

"Well sir, just one more thing." "Yes Harry?"

"Can I start the D.A. up again? I want to train everybody for Hogsmede."

"Of course Harry. Of course, our new D.A.D.A. teacher will be assisting you."

"Sir, who is it?"

"It is Tonks; I daresay she will be of much assistance."

"Thank you sir."

With that Harry got up and left. First of all deciding to visit Tonks.

He went up to the office and knocked on the door.

He heard her say, "Come on in...ah Harry! How good to see you. Are you ok?"

He explained to her about what happened, and she sat shocked.

"Harry, you do know that it is a VERY rare ability. I mean VERY. But enough of that. What's this that I heard from Remus about you being able to grow your hair? He told that it happened when you are younger. Do you remember what I said that a Metamorphmagus? That they are born not made, I think that maybe you are one. Growing your hair is not one of the normal signs of magic. Some people like that Longbottom boy bounce from a window."

Harry laughed. He was pretty amazed by this fact. He may be a Metamorphmagus!

"Tonks, would you be able to help me develop my power, if I have it. I won't tell a soul. Not yet anyway. I want to see if I can trick them into thinking I'm someone else."

"Ok Harry. What about every morning. An hour or so before breakfast. We could meet in the Room of Requirement. It would be good for this attack, it would make them think nothing of you, and V-V-Voldemort wouldn't expect it."

Harry nodded. He totally agreed. It would be good. He could ask Merlin and Gryffindor for help. He was still training every night, (sorry I haven't mentioned it much, but it would be a little boring to explain everything. Though I will say what he has learnt. Later, when he falls asleep this night. It will be in the NEXT chapter. They don't have school the next morning, then the weekend.)

"I better get going Tonks, thanks very much. So I'll see you tomorrow morning about 7.20am!"

With this, Harry left and slowly made his way to Gryffindor Tower.

After entering the tower, (a prefect told him the password) he sat down next to Ron, Hermione, Neville and Ginny, who were playing Exploding Snap.

After coughing to get their attention, (causing Ron's eyebrows to be singed by the explosion) Harry told them what happened. He didn't tell them about being a Metamorphmagus of course.

The common room slowly emptied out, and finally leaving them by themselves. Harry took a deep breath.

"Guys, I have something important to tell you. Please don't ask me questions till I stop, because it is very hard for me to say." He looked at Hermione while saying this.

"Whenever we were at the Department of Mysteries last year........"

He told them everything. It felt so good to get it off his chest.

After, everyone was silent for a second.

"Harry," Hermione started, "does this mean you have to kill Voldemort or he kills you?"

Ron flinched. ("Oh come ON Ron." Ginny said)

"Well, yeah. I should have told you sooner, but I needed to tell you, especially with the danger becoming so close this year."

After talking more about it, they all departed for bed.

As soon as Harry's head hit the pillow, he fell into an easy sleep, something which he hadn't had for a while, since Sirius had died.
