Chapter 3: Further Explanation

Even though most people there knew something about what had happened, the happiness of the wedding dropped several levels. It was quiet for awhile as the copies of the paper were past around to everyone, and even after people finished no one was talking. Tonks took seat and was given a large glass of water, still seemingly very shaken up. Lupin was doing what he could to comfort her, seemingly no longer caring about being "too old" or "too dangerous" for her. Hermione closed her eyes and looked away from the paper, and looked like she was holding back tears. Ron looked more shocked, but still put his arm around her shoulders. Harry's hand balled into a fist; Harry hated to think that Voldemort was getting daring enough to go after Order members, scared certainly, but mad too. It was silent so some time, until Fred broke the silence.

"You gave the 'anonymous' statement didn't you Tonks?"

Her head had been resting on Lupin's shoulder, but she looked up with a small smile.

"Is it really that obvious?"

"It did sound like something you'd say Tonks, at least people who've seen you around Moody. You act like those people that think he's all washed up, but we all know you really respect him. You can tell." Ginny said walked up from behind Harry and leaned on his shoulder, arm wrapped around his waist.

Harry jumped at her touch, and was going to push her away, but he wanted to hold her. He wanted her comfort and wanted to comfort her. She looked awful scared. He pulled her close, it made him better. He had missed it.

"Of course I do! I'll never be as good an Auror as he was, of course I respect him. I wish I could be as good as he was, but I won't. Just don't you go telling anyone it was me," Tonks said. "The Ministry finds out and it'll be my head, and my job for starting this. But if it's true, I'd prefer they fire me. It wouldn't surprise me if it was. And if Mad-Eye were ever to find out, he'd never let me live it down."

She laughed nervously, and Harry could tell she'd prefer to have Moody alive and find out than not be able to.

"We knew something was wrong when he didn't come to the wedding like he said he would," Mrs. Weasley said. "It's not like Alastor not tell someone if he can't make it. We never heard from him, and when he didn't come, we were worried that something was wrong. Sadly we were right."

Harry looked back at the paper glaring at it. "Is that really why he got kidnapped? Revenge?"

Mr. Weasley looked uncomfortable, like he had when he told Harry about how the Ministry thought Sirius had broken out of Azkaban to kill Harry. And had told him so against the Ministry's wishes. The thought of Sirius made Harry's stomach flop. Still. He didn't like accepting the truth.

"It is certainly a part of it Harry, but I'm nearly positive as to the Death Eaters having more reason than just revenge."

"Why's that?" Ron asked looking back at the article, "Revenge, information, both make perfect sense. They all hated him. What else could it be?"

The Order member exchanged glances again.

"We should tell them," Tonks said. "They may as well know. It can't hurt to tell them."

Kingsley nodded grimly. "Let's go inside to discuss this."

"Don't avoid telling us!" Harry snapped. "We deserve to know what's going on!"

He didn't want to be treated like a kid. He was of age and he had every right to know. He was doing more to stop Voldemort than they knew. He was the one that had to do it, not them. He had to know.

"We're not trying to keep anything from you Harry," Lupin said gently. "It just that Order issues should be discussed somewhere a little more secure than outside."

"Oh…" Harry said feeling abashed that he had thought that. "I thought…"

"It's alright Harry dear," Mrs. Weasley said kindly. "You're old enough to know this. Let's go inside."

The gests slowly filed inside the house and gathered around the Weasley's large kitchen table. Once everyone was inside the house and everything was secure Harry spoke up. He wanted to know. The Order members were the only ones really fighting back against Voldemort. They may not have been destroying Hocruxes, but they would if they knew about it. Besides Harry needed all help he could, maybe not with Hocruxes, but still, he didn't need the Order dying out.

"So did Moody know something important involving the Order? Was it something only he knew? Other wise why didn't they just go after someone else? It'd probably be easier than getting into his house undetected..."

"Know something!" Tonks said loudly. "Harry he was the Order."

"What…"

"Alastor was appointed new leader of the Order when Dumbeldore was murdered, Harry." Mr. Weasley said.
