Audrey's Bio: Okay her mother's name was Sarah Black (Sirius' cousin and sister of Narcissa, Bellatrix and Andromeda). That makes Audrey a cousin of Draco and Tonks. The name Brendall is a cover name she has used since she was a baby. This is because her father is Voldemort and that's not a well accepted fact in the M.O.M. But she's more like her mother, Sarah was murdered by Voldemort. He only used her to get an heir (Sarah had some extra powers, she was a Tree Mage). Fudge tried to get rid of Audrey because of her father (a/n I despise Fudge, he's such an idiot and &*##^ let's not get to far it's still PG13), but Dumbledore saved her.

A/N: Okay here's the first chapter, it's a bit vague, but you'll get it later. A/N 2: Oh and at the Profiles I said epilogue in stead of prologue, sorry 'bout that. Thanks to potter-man for telling me. Unfortunately I can't get the damn thing to change it.

Disclaimer: I'm not typing this anew every time so just look at the profiles bit.

WARNING: This story contains spoilers for HP5. So if you haven't read it, don't read on. Unless you want but then it's not my fault.

Prologue Looking back

~*~ Harry's POV ~*~

Things changed, ever since Sirius was murdered at the department of mysteries. We were all a bit down, that's true but with me and my friend it was different. After getting home from Hogwarts I retrieved to my room and the only thing I did was blame myself. My friend, as if by magic (a/n corny I know), send me a bunch of letters assuring me that it wasn't my fault.

Well after two weeks with that wretched family of mine I finally went back to HQ. It was still at number 12 Grimmauld Place (a/n don't know if that's how you spell it, but I can't look it up since I lent the book to my friend and she's somewhere in Germany, without a mobile :'( ). I feared that the place would hold too many painful memories of Sirius, but it proved to be quite the opposite, it held good memories. But that didn't take away the pain. The feeling that there was a hole inside me where Sirius used to be.

My friend weren't much better of. We were down but there was something else, it was like a fire that had been lit inside of us. We started to feel stronger. Hermione started to dig through books but found nothing about such things. But something that we noticed pretty fast was that the assigned homework was a breeze. It seemed so easy; we all finished our homework in the first week back at HQ.

~*~ Audrey's POV ~*~

Things changed. I changed, Harry changed and so did Ron and Hermione. We didn't change physically; nope we still looked the same. No we changed spiritually, no we didn't understand the meaning of life. But our magical abilities grew, boy did they grow. We started to notice it shortly after we had gotten together at HQ. That was about two weeks after Sirius' was killed by Bellatrix Lestat (a/n still can't check my spelling), his own cousin and my aunt.

A consequence of our power boost was the craving to use magic. Unfortunately we we're still forbidden to use magic outside Hogwarts. Luckily we found a room that kept al magic used in it locked up. I don't doubt that it was used to conceal dark magic. But it served our purpose fine. First we finished our homework and then we started to dig through other spellbooks, we borrowed those from Fred and George since they never finished their seventh year. Mrs. Weasley has yet to calm down. Further spellbooks were ordered via Mundungus Fletcher, he doesn't say a thing if you pay him well enough.

~*~ Hermione's POV ~*~

Things changed. The golden quartet changed. After Sirius had been killed we returned home for two weeks, long enough for the magical spell protecting Harry to renew itself. After those two weeks we returned to the headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix.

When we first arrived we talked for a long time, and found that some similar changes had occurred. We had almost finished all of our homework, that's not so strange for me but for the others it was a miracle, since they tend to do everything last minute. But the part that made it strange for me was the fact that, unlike the other times, I hadn't worked on my homework from morning till night, I just started in the morning to find that around noon I had finished al the work I had planned for that day.

So first we finished our homework and then we started to train ourselves in using some harder spells. Audrey had found a room where you could use magic undetected. It wasn't long before we had mastered all seventh year magic.

~*~ Ron's POV ~*~

Things Changed. They changed in a way that had you told me a month ago that they would change like, I would have told you to visit the insanity ward at St. Mungo's. As of last week Harry Potter and company have been studying advanced magic. But what about your homework you might wonder. Well that's one of the changes. We finished it within three weeks, and that's not normal for me, Harry and Audrey. Hermione's an other case there. Studying isn't exactly one of my favourite ways of spending the holiday, but I found it so interesting (another thing that's not like the old me). But using advanced magic in a house full of witches and wizards who fight Voldemort and the Deatheaters, gives you a kick. And the fact that they don't know it is really satisfying in a strange way. We've never been to high on doing things by the rules as our records undoubtedly say, but this was way better than sneaking around Hogwarts after curfew under an invisibility cloak.

~*~ Audrey's POV ~*~

I despise my family and their 'Pure' Bloodline, Sirius, Aunt Andromeda and Tonks are a couple of the very few decent people in my family, and the Weasley's of course. The fact remains that the rest of my family were high strung on the dark arts and the ones that are still alive are all Deatheaters.

We continued studying in the secret room. We helped around the house a bit so that the rest wouldn't get suspicious of us. Soon enough we finished all the books we had, and then Hermione came with a brilliant idea. Why not study to become animagi.

So the next few weeks were dedicated to becoming animagi.

~*~ Hermione's POV ~*~

We cut back on our training time; Ginny was beginning to feel neglected. We weren't surprised; it had been three weeks since we had come to HQ. That only left four weeks until school started again on September 1st.

We had almost figured out how to become animagi, so we started to spend time with Ginny. We played exploding snap and helped her with her homework. Everything seemed to be back to normal. But for us it was far from normal.

~*~ Harry's POV ~*~

Since nobody knew that we had finished our homework we used that as an excuse for the time that we spent figuring out how to become animagi. When there were three weeks left before start of term we received our OWL- results. Hermione got an outstanding on almost all of her exams. Audrey had five, at Defence against the Dark arts, Transfiguration, Charms, Care of Magical Creatures and Herbology. Ron had two, at Care of Magical Creatures and Defence against the Dark arts. I had three, at Defence against the Dark arts, Care of Magical Creatures and Charms.

The result fit us perfectly since we had passed all the subjects we needed to become Aurors. Unfortunately this meant keeping potions. Ron wasn't too thrilled about that. None of us where, can't exactly blame us with our record with Snape.

~*~ Ron's POV ~*~

With two weeks to go before start of term we finally managed to transform into animals. We were finally animagi. Harry was a black Labrador, Hermione was a brown fox, Audrey was a black panther and I was a brown wolf. We had gotten nick names since the beginning of the holidays. Harry was Snitch, Hermione was Mist, Audrey was Nova and I was Prowl.

But we didn't stop here, Hermione and Audrey had already figured out the next step. Harry and I loved it. We learned how to talk to each other telepathically. This was great, and because our innate magic was so strong, distance was hardly an issue. So even after mom had sent us to bed we could still talk to each other.

The rest of the holiday flew by, and before we knew it it was time to go back to Hogwarts.
