A/N I am really, really sorry this took so long to get up, and I am going to hide behind the same excuse, as always I've been really busy. (College Work, Work and to top it all of I am helping with a Brownie Pack Holiday this weekend 22/10/04).
Thank you for all the great reviews. How do you all think Fudge has been spying on Harry then? Ok enough of my rambling I just want to say one more thing and then I'll start typing the story.
Lord of Darkness13 I am sure many agree with me on this, please, please, please upload a sequel to your story. There are so many unanswered questions including how the person who appears at the end of the story got there. (I wont say who because I don't want to spoil it for others.)
Chapter 21The ground was a foot away from the tip of his broom handle, 'if I don't do something now I'm gonna die' ten inches, 'ok Harry now's the time to pull up on the broom just like any other quidditch match. Seven inches, 'Harry pull up that broom now your meant to save the world what would everyone say' Five inches, 'So your just gonna let yourself make a mess of the quidditch pitch imagine what Malfoy would do' Three inches 'What about your friends, Ron, Neville, Ginny Hermione. Hermione.' Were the thoughts running through Harry's brain as he hurtled towards the grass pitch two inches away 'Hermione doesn't need me she's got Ron, no one needs me they need the boy who lived' 'That is you! Fine let Voldemort win I don't care' a voice in his brain argued as the ground was came flying towards him he yelled "No" and pulled up hard on the broom. He pulled to hard however and ended up falling from the back of the broom and landing with a painful thump on his backside. 'Ow that's gonna hurt tomorrow' He thought to himself as he fainted backwards with his broom lying in front of him.
That is how Hermione and Ron found him about an hour later, and how he awoke to the glorious unforgettable sound of his best friends arguing.
"Just give him time to cool off Ron" he heard Ron mimicking Hermione "Yeah I do that and now look at him!" His usual voice continued.
"Honestly Ron how could I have known he'd go and have an accident whilst flying. I'm not psychic you know."
"Well maybe if you had stayed in Divination you would have been able to do something you're the one who thought something was wrong with him"
"Trewlany is a fraud! How would that of helped, and I already told you I am not psychic I just felt as if something was wrong."
"Yeah well you're his best mate you should of known something like this was gonna happen sooner."
"You're his 'best mate' to you know"
"Yeah well you…"
"Yes?"
"You told me you l…"
"Sshh, he's unconscious, unconscious people can still hear you know" Hermione whispered
"Yeah well its obvious that you both…"
"RON shut up," she hissed at him
"No you need to tell him"
"I…I will, when I'm ready"
"And when's that?"
"When I am ready!"
"Why are things never simple with you?" Ron asked
"They are, why do you always make things so complicated?"
"I don't"
"Sure Ron, come on he we need to get him to the hospital wing"
"Nah we don't a quick enervate and he'll be playing wizards chess with me in the common room"
Whilst his two friends had been arguing Harry had just lay there with his eyes shut listening to them. After a few more minutes of listening to them arguing he decided he had heard enough. "Hey! I'm right here, and I don't need to go to the hospital wing. I'm fine just a few bumps and bruises."
"Harry, are you sure you're ok?" Hermione asked as she and Ron helped him to his feet, in answer to her question he just nodded his head.
"What happened?" Ron asked
"Voldemort, vision, Fudge, spying on me, death eater " was the brief worded answer as he tried to remember the vision.
"Come on Harry lets go see Professor Dumbledore."
As the trio reached the gargoyle to the headmaster's office, they realised that they did not know what the password was. So they took it in turns to guess the password knowing of the headmaster's fondness for sweets they listed all the wizarding sweets they could think off after a while,
"Ice mice?" Hermione asked
"Cockroach cluster?" came Ron's suggestion
"Can't you just let us in please?" Harry asked the gargoyle, surprisingly it jumped aside and they made their way up the spiral staircase.
After knocking on the door, and being permitted entrance by Dumbledore, they sat down in the chairs facing the headmaster and once again all but Ron declined the lemon sherbets offered. Dumbledore popped a sweet in his mouth while the students got comfy.
"Now then would one of you care to tell me why my office has been invaded by three Gryffindors who should be outside enjoying the sunny weather this fine Sunday morning?"
"Well sir, you might of noticed but this morning Harry left the Hall in a hurry." Hermione started,
"Yes Miss Granger I did notice" he answered nodding
"Yeah anyway he went flying on the pitch, about an hour later after he hadn't returned we went looking for him and he was just laying on the floor unconscious." Ron continued
"Ahh I see, Harry would you mind telling me what happened?"
"I had a vision of Voldemort sir" he began and continued as Dumbledore nodded, "Anyway I saw Voldemort asking who out of his death eaters had failed him in a task."
"What was this task?"
"To spy on me and you sir. I… I got his name"
"And, who was it Harry"
Harry went quiet for a few seconds before answering, "Fudge sir" He answered causing Hermione to gasp and Ron to start on about how he knew Fudge was a death eater all along, and how now we might be able to get decent Minister.
"Thank you Harry," Dumbledore said before turning to the fireplace throwing in a handful of floo powder and calling, "Alastor Moody" a few minutes later mad eye's head appeared in the fireplace.
"Morning Albus what can I do for you," he growled.
"Could you please come and join us in my office."
"Us?"
"Mr Potter, Weasley, Miss Granger and myself." He clarified; Moody's head disappeared and was shortly replaced with his body.
"Morning all" he growled as his magical eye spun around in his socket, "What's the matter" After recounting the story to mad eye, Dumbledore spoke again.
"Now Alastor as you can see we have somewhat situation here, we have reason to believe that our Minister is involved with the support of Voldemort and we need a erm well we need actual evidence. And as you have been complaining of nothing to do I thought you might like to…"
"'Nough said Albus I'll be going" he answered with a feral smile as he walked towards the fireplace, "I'll take Kingsley and Tonks with me as witnesses." And with a blaze of flames he was gone.
"Thank you I'll keep you all informed of what is going on, now outside with you it's much to nice a day to be stuck inside, I think I might go and see how things are going at the Ministry" Dumbledore said with a smile.
When the trio got outside near the lake Harry turned to the others and said "How about a trip to the Ministry?" With that he pulled his invisibility cloak from his bag handed it to Hermione, turned in to a phoenix and transported them all to the Minister's office where hidden behind a bookcase he changed back and the three of them hid beneath the cloak.
