A/N: Hi Everyone. I know it's been a year or so but I had abandoned writing fan fiction. Then I remembered how much fun it really is so I decided to have a go at it again. Here is your new chapter. I've decided what the outcome of this story will be and I'm sure it will surprise you all. Let's hope you guys like the story. It's gonna be a long one. Plus I might write a prequel as well…their sixth year. Only by the time I get to that the 6th book will be out so both stories will have to be AU. Oh well. Anyway, before you read this chapter, read the story again if you don't remember what happened. I'm sure you guys read a lot of fanfic and it's easy to get confused…

Looony Moony: I hope you're reading this chapter…

LunaAqua: I'm glad you like the ships. The shipper stuff will happen soon…I promise!

shimibby:
Yes and I will explain how exactly that happens in my prequel. But it'll be a while before that is posted!

Tainted13Innocence: Your patience has been rewarded.

suckr4romance: I know…but Sirius will be just fine!

Chapter 5

"So…" said Harry sitting down next to Luna "What are we gonna do about it?"

Ron and Hermione have each other a look. Ginny cleared her throat and said "Well…we have to wait for Dumbledore's instructions…"

"But Sirius has a right to know now! Every minute that goes by, Sirius thinks he is a year younger and nobody is bothering to correct his knowledge."

"But Harry," said Ginny "Dumbledore wants us to do it gently."

"We don't want his memory to get addled." said Draco quietly.

"No," said Harry "We don't…"

He got up and began to pace around Ron's room.

"But the sooner we tell him, the better. There has to be a reason why the adults are leaving him be for the moment. There must be something they don't want us to know…"

"There is," said Hermione "Otherwise they wouldn't keep having secret meetings without us."

"It's almost like the first meetings of the Order…" said Harry gloomily.

"Actually it's nothing like the first meetings of the Order," said Hermione "We aren't in that much peril at the moment…"

"Sirius is." said Harry quietly

"Yes," said Ron "But he's alive, mate! And finally conscious."

"Dumbledore will sort him out. He always comes through." said Ginny with a smile.

"Yeah," said Harry, looking at his shoes. "But it's going to be difficult. I mean, explaining to him all about The Veil, The war, our discoveries, the prophecy…"

The atmosphere in the room became tense with the mention of the prophecy. Harry looked up and raised his eyebrows at everyone in the room.

"What? Something's up, isn't it?" He asked.

Luna muttered something that sounded like "Squeegie." Other than that, nobody made a sound.

"Ok," said Harry "That's it. What do you guys know that I don't?"

"Er…It's not that we know anything specific…" said Hermione

"It's just a sort of theory…" said Draco

"Whatever it is," said Harry, scowling "I want to know."

The room rang with silence as the gang surveyed each other. Then -

"I think we should tell him," said Ginny. She looked around at the other's, seeking their opinions.

"I think," said Draco in his drawl "that he should know. After all, it is about him…"

Ron and Luna exchanged looks, and then both of them nodded in consent. Hermione looked a little uncomfortable.

"Harry," said Hermione "What do you know about the prophecy?"

Harry blinked. He hadn't expected that. What did he know about the prophecy?

"Well," he said "I know that it said either I had to kill Voldemort or vice versa." said Harry

Hermione nodded. "Go on." she said.

"And," said Harry "Of course the information we unearthed last year…"

FLASHBACK

"This is hopeless!" said Harry as he closed Spells with A Twist with a loud thud. The other five students at his table jumped. The library was empty as everyone was celebrating after a spectacular match between Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw.

"Nothing is hopeless," said Hermione "There has to be some way in here…I just know it!"

"It's not that," said Harry "It's not that at all."

"Then what?" asked Ron "What's the matter?

"The Prophecy!" said Harry

"What about it?" asked Ginny

"It has to be fulfilled. It was a prediction. And what we're doing is bound to go against it!"

There was a moment's silence as the gang thought over Harry's words.

"But," said Luna "There are ways to go around such things"

Everyone looked at her. She smiled back at her friends.

"What do you mean, Luna?" Harry asked with interest.

"Dumbledore," she said "Would not choose us to search here if there was no way."

"Of course!" said Ginny "I'm sure Dumbledore would have thought of this!"

"I have, indeed." said Dumbledore approaching their table.

The gang jumped at the unexpected surprise.

Dumbledore smiled down at them. "Well," he said with a smile. "I was just coming here to check up on you and I couldn't help overhearing."

The group of children smiled back at him. Dumbledore surveyed them all with a smile. He knew that he was doing the right thing making them all work together.

"You will in fact be working around the prophecy…" said Dumbledore. "However, I do not feel now is the correct time to tell you how and why."

"But Professor…"

"No, Harry," said Dumbledore "You will know when the time is right..."

FLASHBACK END

"And now?" asked Harry "Now, is the time right?"

"Apparently," Draco said "At least according to what we've heard."

"What else have you heard?" asked Harry.

"Well," said Hermione "The thing is…"

"Mind you, we don't know for sure…" Ron added

"But we think…" said Hermione

"What?" asked Harry impatiently

"Harry…" said Ginny "We don't think it's worked."

"What hasn't worked?" asked Harry, now getting a little infuriated and puzzled at the same time.

"The prophecy. We don't think Dumbledore managed to get around it."

"WHAT?" said Harry

"But we're not sure yet!" said Draco

"It's just a theory" said Ron.

"But what makes you think…" said Harry

"Well, we heard mum and Dumbledore talking the other day," said Ginny "They were saying something about the revival of the prophecy or something…"

"How do you know it was the same prophecy?"

"Well, either it was the same prophecy or it was another one connected to you and Voldemort. Because they mentioned both of you." said Ginny.

"Prophecy's are not common" said Luna "Must be the same one."

"But wha…" said Harry, but didn't get to finish as there was a knock on the door before it opened and Mrs. Weasly entered the room.

"Well, children. Food's on the table."

"Don't worry," Harry heard Ginny mutter as they followed Mrs. Weasly down the stairs. "Dumbledore will come through. He always does."

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Even though Harry felt good to be at The Burrow with his friends with the laughter, good company and excellent food; he couldn't help being a little worried as well.
The Prophecy would not have been Seen if it wasn't going to be fulfilled. How could they have all thought that there was a way to get around it? It didn't seem possible at the time and it didn't seem possible to Harry now. They had gotten rid of Voldemort, sure, but what if it wasn't permanent? Would Voldemort awaken and take on Harry once again? Another battle which would determine the outcome of the prophecy…

"Harry, dear are you alright?"

"Er…Yes Mrs. Weasly, I'm fine.

Mrs. Weasly gave him a sympathetic smile and turned to look at Sirius. Harry looked at Sirius too and his worries increased. He had been worrying about the outcome of the prophecy and had completely forgotten about his godfather. Harry sighed. Voldemort or No Voldemort, Harry always seemed to have a lot on his mind.

"So, Mum," said Ginny, helping herself to more mashed potatoes "When is Professor Dumbledore going to get here?"

"He didn't say," said Mrs. Weasly "I expect he'll be around soon."

Just then, three owls flew into the room, carrying two letters each. Mr. Weasly and Sirius got up and began to unite the letters from the owls' legs.

"Hogwarts Letters!" Sirius announced.

"Yes, I expected those to be arriving soon." said Mrs Weasly, taking the letters away from Sirius and handing them out.

"Cool," said Ron opening his letter "We have all sorts of new things this year."

"There must be another ball this year," said Ginny "Our year has got dress robes as a requirement."

"Yeah, we've got those too." said Ron with a sigh.

Hermione suddenly gave a squeal of delight and then turned it into a cough. Mr. Weasly, who had been reading over her shoulder, grinned, then look at Sirius and back at the letter again.

"Er…Sirius, I wanted to show you some of the things in my collection. Only the box is really heavy…"

"Sure I'll help you!" said Sirius, cheerfully. He followed Mr. Weasly out of the kitchen.

"What happened?" asked Draco, giving Hermione a curious look.

"I'm Head Girl!" she said, trying not to shout.

"That's great!" said Ginny

"Oh no!" said Ron

"What? What do you mean 'Oh no'?" asked Hermione

"Well now you'll never let us relax! We'll be studying all the…"

Ron stopped midway as he starred at Harry's hand. Harry had just opened his letter, and a green and gold badge had fallen into the palm of his hand.

"Oh Harry," said Hermione "That's brilliant!"

"Congratulations mate!" said Ron.

Even as everyone bestowed their congratulations on him, Harry could not believe he had been made Head Boy. It was something that he had never expected. He had expected it when he got his Quidditch Captain badge last year, but Head Boy? Him?

"Your father was one too." said Luna in a soft voice.

Harry looked up at her and smiled. He wondered how she had known one of the bits of information he had never really bothered to share with everyone. He looked down at his badge and grinned.

'I'm going to be the best Head Boy Hogwarts has even had!' He silently vowed.
