I only want to be excepted.

Disclaimer: come on you no I don't own Harry or His friends. Just the Oc's and the plot!

A.N I can't believe the response I got!

PinappleCube:Ok I'll read through it better next time. What sort of mistakes did you mean? Spelling? I hope it didn't ruin the story. I hoped the end would add some mystery.

PurringPhoenixVoyager:Great name. I wanted to show people that sometimes life isn't peachy. And sometimes it can be staring you right in the face and you're none the wiser. I read all these stories about how rosy life is ect. And I'm fine with that, some of the story's are really good and that's fine, if they want to write that who am I to discourage them? But I wanted something a little more real and what some people could possibly relate to instead of a teenage love story. A bit more depth.

Mr Blader X: I'm sorry if it made you cry! However I am pleased that it has some emotional depth to it. Not that I'm glad you are emotional. I wasn't sure if i made it obvious in the last chapter who was listening or not, and I'm not going to say if you find out or not in this chapter, I promise you find out soon.

Dooley: Thank you so much, it means a lot to me that you like it and i will keep going and it won't be ending just yet!

inu Sasha: Thank you, I wanted something different. I wanted intense, mystery, emotion, suspense ect. So I'm glad you think that. I'm not going to say if Charlie comes into the wizarding world, you'll have to read and find out.

GurlsBoy: I'm sorry that you find it depressing that was never my intention! just something different really. Thanks!

Thank you all to my reviewers! I love you all. When I wrote this chapter I wasn't sure if I should introduce it later or not. What do you think? review at the end please.

Chapter 5: over heard conversations part one.

It had been a few days since Hermione had received those letters and since then Dumbledore had kept his promise and the day after he, Sirius, Remus, Mad eye, Kingsley and Snape had paid a visit to them.

FLASHBACK

'Did you go? What happened? Who was there? Was Charlie ok?'

'Miss Granger, everything was fine. Your mum and dad were there, Jason and Danny, Charlie, your Nan, your uncle Bob and cousin Sam I think. We went in and they were all in the living room. We told them that you were with us and that you weren't coming back because we think it was disgusting the way they had treated you. They said fine. Charlie was upset but I told her about the spell and she was fine.'

Hermione let out a sigh of relief. She was satisfied with that answer and left. The Order looked at Dumbledore.

'Why didn't you tell her the truth?'

'Sirius, she's been through enough.'

'She had a right to know. Imagine what she will do when she finds out.'

'She isn't going to find out. Unless somebody tells her.'

'Dumbledore, you know none of us are going to go up to her and say 'o by the way that's not how it went. Actually when we got there and spoke to them, they were shouting things like We couldn't care less about that bitch, she's no family of ours. Keep her, drown her for all we care. And I'm not going to turn around and say I hit John for saying send her back I could do with a good fuck now am I? Or that Charlie was in tears on the floor begging us to take her with us?'

'But I told you, I cast that spell so she will be fine.'

'Dumbledore, I know you have you reasons but I don't agree with them one bit. She's going to be heart broken when she finds out we left Charlie there with bruises on her face!'

'I will take the consequences if and when she finds out. I just think it will be to hard for her to deal with at the moment. She's in a very fragile state as it is. '

END FLASHBACK

Hermione woke up in a sweat. She couldn't remember what she was dreaming about but she knew it was terrible and she was tossing and turning. She heard a bang from down stairs but figured it was nothing. An old house like this probably made lots of different noises.

She looked out of her window and saw it was still dark but there was a slight tinge of colour in the east. She thought it was probably about 6.30/7.00 After deciding she couldn't get back to sleep she thought she would go down stairs for an early breakfast. She pulled on her jogging bottoms and tank top (she sleeps in her underwear) and slowly opens her door. It was still early so she didn't want to wake anybody.

She creped down the corridor and down the stairs, she missed the first few stairs, she couldn't remember which one of the them creaked.

Once at the bottom she turned to the kitchen. She could see a faint light on and the door was open slightly. She made her way over to the door and heard talking. She realised that it was a meeting with the Order. She shouldn't listen but what if it was important and they could help. She hid herself in the shadows and listened to Dumbledore speak.

'As far as we know, Voldermort hasn't heard the full prophecy. Just the beginning, so that still gives us an advantage over him. However I'm not sure how long for. If he keeps trying to get into Harry's mind like this and if Harry can't block him out then, day by day we will get weaker. It's not Harry's fault, because it's in his subconscious. But we still some back ups. Ok Severus what have you got for us?'

Dumbledore sat down and Snape rose. Hermione leaned in closer. She could see that there was about 50 people in the kitchen including the twins! When did they become part of the Order? Most of these people she didn't recognise but some of them she did.

'Ok well the revel two nights ago was terrible. 15 Muggles and 5 of them were children. There is another one planned for two weeks. I got word of an attack taking place in 3 days time at the Wood's. Apparently Marcus and Annie had refused to join them, so the Dark Lord will be killing them. It's going to be a night attack and a big one at that. He wants me, Malfoy, Lengstrange's, Knott and Parkinson. He will be there as well. The others will be in Huffleclef starting fires. Possible Muggle baiting.'

Hermione couldn't believe what she was hearing. 15 Muggles killed, 5 were children. Just for their sick pleasure. Wood? Oliver Wood. It had to mean him. He and his family were going to be attacked for not joining the dark side. This was awful. She half wished that she hadn't stayed to listen.

'I've got a feeling that there is going to be another attack on a Muggle family but I'm not sure. We really need someone else in there Dumbledore. I can only get so much information.'

'I understand Severus. You've done well to get us this information and in tonight's meeting we will discuss plans of attack. AndI have an idea about getting more information. But I'll say that after we've heard from Tonks.'

'Ok well I think I've convinced all the auroras now that joining the Order is defiantly beneficial without blowing my cover. They will be in contact Dumbledore. There's Peter's, Merk's and O'Brien as well that said they will be in contact. As far as information goes. Lard arse Fudge (minister) finally believes what you've been saying and is putting some of us on tracking. You know following old Death Eaters. We know all the information all ready so there's nothing new there. He's also doing some research into some Muggle defences like juns?'

'Guns Tonks.'

'Thank you Sirius. Guns. I'm not sure what he intends to do with them, because we can stop any attack like that with our wands.'

'I think it's just to scare people. Ok thanks Tonks.'

Bloody hell, Guns? Fudge really is stupid. But she was glad that they have got more and more support for the light side. It means that they have a better chance of coming out of the war victorious. She turned back to the kitchen and saw Hagrid was now speaking. She hated standing here, her back was killing her.

'Me an' Olimpy have go' a 'hole village now. 'at's 'bout 25 giants. 'ey are spreadin'a word and hopefully 'ey have convinced 'em 'at he-who-must-not-be-named is using 'em. We should have 'bout 60 giants in 'a en'.'

'That's great Hagrid thank you. That's excellent. As long as we have them on our side that's brilliant.'

60 giants! she couldn't believe what she was hearing! They'll turn around and say they've got Dragons next. Charlie stood up.

'I spoke to some friends in Egypt, Brazil and Australia. And I have rounded up 10 at the moment. Possible another 5. There the four we used in the triwizard tournament. Plus a Bulgarian fire eyes, two extra Hungarian Horntails and three Norwegian Ridgebacks. I'm working on some English brown tiger Dragons as well. Bro?'

'Cheers Chaz. Right Goblins will do anything for Dumbledore so we've got those defiantly. The South Ice pixies are vicious and huge! You think pixy as little cute things, on no 4 foot and breath fire ice! There magic is pure and god its powerful. We can use the fire ice to heal and their claws can attack. They've agreed as long as I don't go back there. I'm going out in a few days to search for the Roman Centaurs as well.'

'Great. I wish you the best of luck with that. Ok if there isn't anything else I would like to propose a special project.'

The whole room turned to look at him and Hermione even turned inwards more, snapping out of her state of shock about the Dragons.

'As you know, we have enough information really coming from the magical creatures and Ministry really but we lack information from the inside. The dark side. Yes Severus is our insider and putting somebody else in there is very dangerous. Especially if we put someone older in, if they haven't been in there since the beginning. And I think that they have enough male death eaters in there as well, we need somebody who can get close to Voldermort, without trying to take the place of any of his right hand men. That's why I think we need a female insider who can seduce or use her looks to get in closer with Voldermort. I mean he is a man and I doubt very much that he is going to turn down some young female is he?'

Hermione rolled her eyes at this. Some of the men around the room sniggered.

'This won't cause to much suspicion either because she will be young and they are always recruiting younger Death Eaters. Now the way I see it is we have three options: Tonks, Ginny and Hermione.'

Hermione widened her eyes when her and Ginny's names were mentioned. Obviously Dumbledore had thought long and hard about this if he considered using them.

'Absolutely not. There is no way Hermione or Ginny can do that. They are far to young and inexperienced in dark magic.'

Hermione looked at Mrs Weasley, she looked absolutely horrified at the idea of it.

'Please Molly, let my finish. Who ever it would be would go to all the revels, meetings personal or group with Snape or alone. They would act just like a Death Eater, do as they do, act as they do, go on all the raids and attacks. This way they would be right in the inner circle and Voldermort would trust them enough to let them in on more information.'

The group were considering this in their heads. It couldn't be said if they approved or not yet.

'I wish that we had any other ideas but we don't. If there was any other way I would take it, but with the information that we are getting we can't stop him. Yes we have information on raids and attacks but we need information on what he plans to do. What he knows, things like that. He's to smart to have kept that sort of thing in a pensive and his mind is well protected. We need an insider if we are going to survive.'

He sat down at the head of the table and looked around

'What do you think?'

Kingsley spoke up.

'Ok lets do pros and cons for each and see which is better for the job?'

'Ok, lets start with Miss Weasley. Molly I know you don't like the idea but we must consider her. I mean she's young,'

He started to count them off on his fingers.

'She Pureblood.'

'Attractive.'

Fred and George shot warning looks at their friend Lee Jordan. People were just shouting answers out.

'In Hogwarts, so she can tell him she can be a spy for him ect.'

'Close to Harry.'

People couldn't think of anything else to say.

'Ok there are some problems though with Miss Weasley. I think that perhaps she it too young. She's in her crucial O.W.L year. It would probably interfere with her studies and I'm not putting her studies on hold. In her first year she was possessed by him so that makes her vulnerable to him already and she might not be able to fight him off. Molly and the twins obviously are not thrilled about the idea. And I'm sorry to say but the Dark world the Weasley's are considered traitors.'

'So are we agreed our baby sis ISN'T the insider?'

Heads nodded around the room. Hermione outside had heard everything. That only left her and Tonks. She wanted to know who they'd pick.

'Ok so we have Tonks.'

'Young ish'

She slapped Fred upside his head for his cheek.

'Sexy'

They whole room turned to Bill who had gone a nice shade of red to match his hair.

'Related to the Malfoy/Black line.'

'In the Ministry.'

'Can change appearance.'Again they couldn't think of anymore for her.

'Ok but I'm thinking that Tonks perhaps is a little to old for the job. They might wonder why she didn't join them sooner.'

'She's an auror, so they might not trust her,'

'She's needed in the Ministry for the Order.'

'Ok so Tonks your are a maybe. Last but not least Hermione.

'Perfect age'

'Hot'

Most of the younger men like Fred, George, Bill, Charlie, Sirius, Lee, Percy, Remus and some others all nodded their heads at this. Hermione was very surprised at this. She leaned in a bit further to hear what they were going to say about her.

'Very powerful witch.'

'Best mate to Harry.'

'In Hogwarts so she could bluff and be a spy.'

'She used the time turner for a year, so she was discreet and sneaky. I think she could fool anybody. '

'Very strong minded, won't back down.'

'Always up for a challenge.'

'Has the time on her hands to train and learn ect,'

'Won't interfere because she's can catch up easily

'All of these are what I thought of. And I could only come up with two reason why we couldn't use her. The fact that she's Muggle born and she's had a hard time lately and might not want to do it.'

Everybody in the room knew it. Hermione was the perfect choice, it was just a matter of asking her and whether she would be up for such a task as this. It was really dangerous but they did think that she could handle it.

'How do we ask her?'

Outside Hermione had a hundred things going around in her head.

Am I really up for this, after my family? Could I pull it off? What if I got caught?

But she was still thinking I

want to help the order and Harry. If it helps the light side win, why not. I'm up for a challenge. I could do this. Maybe I'll finally be excepted somewhere. I want to prove myself to the Order. I can do this. I want to do this.

She had to show herself to the order.

Can I really do this? If I mess up then I've blown everything. Yes you can do this.

She took a deep breath and swung the door open, it obviously hadn't been oiled in a while because it opened with a loud creek. Everybody in the room turned to stare at the person who interrupted their meeting.

'I'll do it.'

A.N. oooh, how are they going to react. Happy? Angry she was listening? Are they going to let her do it? Will she change her mind? How will Harry and Ron react to it? review! The sooner you review the sooner I update which means the sooner you find out what happens!
