A/N: Earlier I had it that Sirius had died. This is not correct. The story is supposed to take place in Harry's 5th year. I have changed it to the correct information. If anyone sees anymore mistakes please tell me. Thanks!

The Ministry is going to be different than it was in the Order of the Phoenix.

Silver Clan's sign language

Ch 5

Harry spoke to Viper about their assignment. Viper frowned, "Why is it that we have to do it? I mean Ryder could have sent Bradach. We are assassins, not thieves."

Harry nodded. "I don't understand it either. Come on. We have dinner to go to. After that, when everyone's in bed, we can sneak out."

Viper grinned. "Alright, besides, I'm hungry."

Harry grinned.

That night Viper and Harry sat in the common room. To pass the time they played Exploding Snap. (a/n: is that what it is?) At midnight everyone had finally gone to bed. Harry and Viper slipped out of the common room and ran quickly through the shadows towards the Room of Requirement. When they got there they found Draco sitting in a chair. He looked up. "What are you two doing here?"

Viper grinned. "I can say the same for you."

Draco laughed. "I couldn't sleep. You?"

Harry answered him. "We were assigned a job by Ryder."

Draco nodded. "I see. Who do you have to get rid of?"

"Actually, it's a theft job."

Draco arched a brow. "Why doesn't he send Bradach?"

Harry shrugged. "I don't know, but Viper and I better go. We'll see you later."

Viper and Harry both took out their wands and waved them. Their outfits changed. Harry's was a black shirt, black pants, black leather boots, and a trench coat. He then smirked and summoned his sword. It was made of mithril and the hilt was wrapped in black leather. He also summoned his dagger. He slipped into it's sheath on his wrist. He pulled back his long black hair into a ponytail and removed his glasses. He didn't need them, but he needed to keep up appearances. The lenses were just regular glass. Viper's outfit was similar except that her shirt was silver. Her weapons were a pair on silver duo knives and a muggle gun with a silencer.

When they were done they re-sheathed their wands, putting them in holsters on their arms. Harry looked over to Viper. "Ready to go?"

Viper smirked. "Of course. Let's go."

Harry smirked back and they both melted into the shadows.

Moments later they reappeared in the lobby of the Ministry of Magic. Harry signaled to Viper. We need to go to the Department of Mysteries.

Viper nodded and signaled back. Ok. What floor is it on?

Sublevel 5.

Viper nodded. Let's go.

Harry and Viper again melted into the shadows. They reappeared in the shadows of a large room. Viper again signaled to Harry. Where are we?

The lobby of the Department of Mysteries. We need to go down that corridor to get to the Prophecy Room.

Harry pointed at a door in the far corner of the room. Viper nodded and both she and Harry quietly slipped through the door. They followed the corridor and arrived at a solid steel door. Viper stepped up to it and concentrated. A minute later there was a click and the door swung open.

Harry and Viper slipped into a large circular room. Around the perimeter of the room were shelves. Viper signaled to Harry. What prophecy are we looking for?

Ryder sent me letter at dinner that said we were looking for a prophecy concerning the Dark Lord.

Viper nodded. She walked up to the shelves, pulled out a scroll, and opened it. A moment later she closed it and shook her head. Nope.

Hours later and Harry pulled out the last scroll. If this isn't the one…

He unrolled it and scanned it. He rolled it up a moment later and scowled. Its not it!

WHAT?

This scroll is not the right one!

It should be here!

I know god-damnit! They must have it somewhere else! After all the attempts Voldemort made to get it, they put it somewhere else!

Damn.

Yeah, but we have to leave. Daybreaks soon and we have to get back. We need to report to Ryder.

Viper nodded. The two quickly replaced the scrolls and made sure that everything was as they had found it.

They slipped out of the room and made their way back to the main room of the Department. They slipped out of the door and encountered an Order member on guard. Viper grew one of her knives, but Harry put his hand on her arm. Not yet. He can be of use to us.

Viper nodded, but didn't put her weapons away. Harry grabbed the man by the throat and thrust him against the wall. He then whispered to the man. "We need some information, and you have it. Now where is the prophecy?"

The man shook in fear. "Which one?"

Harry snarled. "Don't play games with me Weasely. Yes I know your name. Now where is the Prophecy?"

Arthur Weasely looked at the man in fear. "In the Prophecy Room."

"I'm warning you Weasely. Tell to me a lie again, and your family will suffer. I'll give you one last time, where is the Prophecy?"

Arthur gulped. "Dumbledore has it. He keeps it in his office. We only guard the Department of Mysteries still to trick Voldemort. Please don't hurt my family."

"Oh, I won't. Not yet at least. Carry on Viper. Oh, by the way. You don't recognize me, do you Mr. Weasely?"

Arthur started. "Harry?"

Harry laughed. "Finish him Viper. For your information Weasely, I stopped being the boy-who-lived a long time ago."

Viper quickly slit Arthur's throat. Harry then used magic to burn the body and get rid of the ashes. They did not need anyone to find him yet. Harry and Viper melted into the shadows and reappeared in the room of requirement. They took out their wands and changed their clothes back into their school robes. They exited the room and silently made their way to the DADA room. They slipped into the room and knocked on the door of Ryder's quarters. He opened the door and ushered them in. he then threw up a silencing ward and locked the door. He turned to the two teens. "Do you have it?"

Harry scowled. "No. They removed it."

Ryder frowned. "Do you know they could have placed it?"

Harry nodded. "We encountered an Order member. We questioned him. The prophecy is being kept in Dumbledore's office."

Ryder sighed. "That's going to complicate things a bit."

Harry nodded. Ryder sighed again. "You two should return to your common room before anyone realizes that you are gone."

Harry and Viper turned and opened the door after the wards had been removed.

That day they were in DADA when Draco approached Harry. He started taunting Harry, but his hand gestures said otherwise. "Hey Potty where are the Weasel and the Mudblood? Did they ditch you?" Did you get what you were looking for in the Department of Mysteries?

"Ha you wish Malfoy. I chose to separate from them for the moment. Where are your friends? Oh that's right, you don't have any friends." NO! The idiot Order moved it!

"You'll pay for that Potter!" Ouch.

"What's going on here?" A fat woman walked into the classroom. (a/n: enter Umbridge!)

Harry answered the woman, still facing Malfoy. "He was insulting me."

"He's lying professor! He was insulting me!"

"Oh is that right Malfoy?"

"Be quiet Mr. Potter! Ten points from Griffindor for insulting another student!"

Umbridge turned and walked up front. Draco and Harry took the last available seats. I really hate that woman! I got 10 points taken away for 'insulting' you, but she let you off!

I agree. Do you think Ryder will let us get rid of her?

No. She works for the Ministry. If she dies, then the whole castle will be swarming with aurors.

You're right.

Of course I am. Back to the lesson. I really hate this Umbridge women.

I agree, but I think you deserved to have the points taken away in retaliation for pranking me.

Oh come on. It was funny.

Ha Ha. I don't think so.

Many will agree with me.

Just shut up.

It was still funny!

"I said shut up!"

"Excuse me, Mr. Malfoy?"

Draco blushed. Harry chuckled. Serves you right.

Draco growled. Umbridge went back to the lesson. The bell rang moments later and Harry made his way to Ancient Runes. He had dropped Divination and instead took up Ancient Runes. Draco went off to his common room for his break.
