Yes, I JUST wrote the other author's note one minute ago. Wrote all three chapters yesterday. I SLEPT TILL 11:45 today! It would have been longer if my dog, Gigi, wouldn't have started barking. We now know that she really DOES have a problem. She has to take pills now, yes I'm talking about a dog. She has a thing about leaving left alone with out any humans around. Weird. We also have to metal mini blinds to prove it. She chewed, yes CHEWED them all up. And the door to the doggie den. Help us god.

It's my Grandma's and cousin's b-day today! (6/16) Happy birthday!

(Okay, I wrote all that on 6/16, Thanks to the people who are reviewing! I feel so luved!)

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

They walked down the stairs as a group, and heard the front door open and close.

"Snape never eats here, thank God," whispered Ron to Harry.

"Who's Snape?" Asked Danny.

"A teacher, we'll tell you about him later," answered Harry shortly.

"Don't forget to keep you voice down in the hall you two," whispered Hermione.

The group passed the heads on the wall when they saw Lupin and Tonks magically sealing it's many locks and bolts.

"We're eating down in the kitchen," Mrs. Weasly whispered, "Harry and Danny, dears, if you'll just tiptoe across the hall, it's through this door here-"

CRASH!

"Tonks!" cried Mrs. Weasley.

"I'm sorry!" wailed Tonks who was lying on the floor, "It's the second time I've tripped over that umbrella stand-" the rest was drowned out by a horrible yelling.

The curtains both Harry and Danny had passed by before had flown open and a woman in a picture was screaming as though she was dieing. The woman had yellow skin and was drooling, her eyes rolling. Other pictures awoke and started yelling as well.

Lupin and Mrs. Weasley ran forwards and tried to close the curtains over the portrait, but they wouldn't shut. The woman was now screaming something like this: "Filth! Scum! By-products of dirt and vileness! Half-breeds, mutants, freaks, be gone from this place! How dare you befoul the house of my fathers!"

Danny couldn't help but think that all the insults were for him. Half-breeds, mutants, freaks… but before he could think that thought any further a man with long black hair came running up between him and Harry.

"Shut up, you horrible old hag, shut UP!" he yelled, his volume matching Harry's. And with that he grabbed the curtain.

"Yoooou! Blood traitor, abominations, shame of my flesh!" the woman went on.

'I guess it's everyone she insults, not just me,' thought Danny.

"I said - shut - UP!" The man yelled again, and him and the other man, who Danny still hadn't met, closed the curtain. The woman's yells were died out and a silence fell.

The man was panting and pulling the dark hair out of his eyes. He turned to Harry and Danny. "Hello Harry, I see you've met my mother. And Danny, is it? Welcome to my house."

"That's your-?" started Harry.

"Yes, it's my mother," answered the man, "Been trying to get her down, must have put a Permanent Sticking Charm on the back of the picture. But let's go before she wakes up again." And they all followed him to the kitchen.

"So, this is your house?" asked Harry.

"Yep, offered it to Dumbledore to use as a headquarters - about the only useful thing I've been able to do."

Danny and Harry noticed how bitter his voice sounded. "Um, who are you again?" asked Danny.

"I'm Sirius Black, Harry's godfather," he answered.

"Harry!" exclaimed Mr. Weasley, "It's great to see you! And you must be Danny, great to meet you. I've heard a lot about you."

"Excuse me," said Mrs. Weasely, "but if you want dinner before midnight please give me a hand." Danny and Harry stood up to help but she pushed them back down. "No not you two, you both have had a long journey and for Danny, he's been finding out a lot in the past couple hours."

"Can I do something, Molly?" asked Tonks.

"No it's okay, why don't you introduce Danny to everyone?" she suggested.

Tonks nodded. "Well Danny, I'm Tonks. That's Mr. Weasley," she said gesturing to the red haired man, "You've met all the kids. There's Moody. Oh, there's Lupin," added Tonks as he walked in.

"Hello Danny, how are you?" asked Lupin, shaking his hand.

Danny looked over the man. His clothes were torn here and there, and even though he couldn't be more than in his late 30's or early 40's his hair was gray and he had many lines on his face.

"Fine, I guess. Just getting used to the fact that magic really does exist and that I've told my parents my secret AND pretty much everyone here knows about that secret," said Danny, his voice dripping with sarcasm.

Lupin just smiled, "Believe me, I know how you feel."

"Oh, are you half ghost, too?" asked Danny. He didn't mean for it to come out so harsh. "I'm sorry-"

"It's okay, I might not be half a ghost, but I am half of something else," answered Lupin, and as if reading Danny's mind, "And I don't think those comments about half-breeds and freaks were meant for you, at least they would have been if she knew you were here. They were mostly for me and a few other people here."

Then Lupin sat down across from Danny.

Sirius turned to Harry, "So Harry, had a good summer so far?"

"No, lousy," answered Harry.

And for the first time a grin crossed Sirius's face. "I think I would have taken the dementor attack. A struggle for my soul would have broken the monotony nicely. I haven't left the house for a month."

"Why?" asked Danny and Harry in unison.

"The Ministry of Magic is still after me, and Voldemort will know all about my being an Animagus by now, Wormtail would have told him, so my big disguise is useless. And there isn't much I can do for the Order. . . or so Dumbledore feels."

Danny saw Harry's face lift. By what he heard Harry must not be too happy with the headmaster right now, so he probably had a lot in common with his godfather.

"But at least you know what's going on," said Harry frowning again.

"Oh yeah," started Sirius sarcastically, "Listening to Snape's reports, having to take all his snide hints that he's out there risking his life asking me how the cleaning's going-"

"What cleaning?" interrupted Harry.

"We're trying to make the house fit for humans. No one's lived here since my mum died, unless you count her old house-elf, and he's gone round the twist, hasn't cleaned anything in ages."

"Just a couple questions. 1) What's the Ministry of Magic, 2) What's an Animagus, 3) Who's Snape and why does it seem that everyone hates him, 4) What's a house elf and finally 4) What was that thing you mother was in?" asked Danny, clearly confused with everything.

"In order, they are people who don't see what's in front of them," said Harry.

"An Animagus is a witch or wizard that can turn into an animal," answered Sirius.

"Snape is a teacher at Hogwarts who used to be one of my dad's worst enemies," continued Harry.

"House elves are worked to death by rich wizards and can't be freed until they are given clothes by their owner," began Hermione, "And you should join S.P.E.W., it's an-"

"HERMIONE!"

"And in the wizarding world our pictures move," finished Harry.

"Okay, thanks," said Danny quietly, while holding his head, "It's safe to say that I'm suffering from brain overload".

"You think this is bad, think about learning four years of magic, and this year," said Ron.

"I really hate you," said Danny flatly, then he sighed, "Well, Mr. Lancer always said I could apply myself to anything and do good. How I am eating his words..."

"Who's Mr. Lancer?" asked Ginny.

"He's my English teacher at Casper High," answered Danny.

"What's Casper high?" asked Ron.

"It's the high school I went to. We learn everything, except magic," answered Danny.

"What else is there to learn?"

"Math, English, Science other stuff," answered Danny, "Haven't you ever been to one?"

"No, Ron is part of an all wizard family. I've been to it up till I was 11, I'm a muggle-born like you and your aunt," answered Hermione.

"Okay everyone let's dig in!" exclaimed Mrs. Weasley, supper being ready.

They didn't have to be told twice, everyone loaded up the plates and began to eat.

"Now can I please know what's going on here," demanded Harry, "Ron and Hermione said they weren't allowed in the Order-"

"And they are quite right, you're too young," interrupted Mrs. Weasley.

"Since when did you have to be in the Order to ask questions? The boy has been locked up in a muggle house for a couple of months! He has a right to know what's been happening," started Harry's godfather.

"Hang on! We want our questions answered, too!" shouted Fred.

"It's not my fault that you haven't been told what going on. That's your parents' decision. Harry on the other hand-" said Sirius calmly.

"It's not down to you to decide what's good for Harry!" exclaimed Mrs. Weasley sharply, "He's going to be fifteen and-"

"And he's dealt with as much as most in the Order, more than some," said Sirius, finishing her sentence.

"No one's denying what he's done! But he's still-" started Mrs. Weasley, her voice raising.

"He's not a child!" shouted Sirius.

"And not an adult either. He's not James, Sirius!" exclaimed Molly.

"I know who he is!"

"I don't think you do. Sometimes you treat him as if you have your best friend back!" exclaimed Mrs. Weasley.

"What's wrong with that?" asked Harry.

"And in all respect Mrs. Weasley, I haven't known Harry or any of you for more than an hour or two but with what I've heard Harry has been through a lot. More than anyone I've know, and I know a lot of people with sucky lives, including my own," said Danny, standing up, "I think he and everyone else should know what's going on. I know that if my evil future self was lose, which this sounds sort of like it, I'd want to know everything about it."

Mrs. Weasley was red in the face now. "FINE! But everyone else, bed now!"

"WHAT!" exclaimed everyone.

"We're of age!" shouted Fred and George.

"And I'm just going to tell Ron and Hermione everything later," Harry added.

"FINE! GINNY BED!" Mrs. Weasley ordered.

"MOM!"

"BED!"

Ginny ran out of the room and so did Mrs. Weasley.

"Okay Harry, what do you want to know?" asked Sirius.

"Where's Voldemort? What's he doing?" asked Harry in one breath.

"He's not doing anything, no deaths anyway. Doesn't want to draw attention to himself," answered Lupin.

"What's the Order been doing?" asked Harry.

"Working to make sure Voldemort can't carry out his plans," said Sirius.

"So what does Dumbledore think he's planning?" asked Ron.

"Building up his army again," answered Sirius.

"But why doesn't the wizarding world accept that he's back? Why doesn't Fudge believe us?" asked Harry.

"You saw him the night he came back, hasn't changed very much," replied Lupin.

"But you're telling people, aren't you?" asked Danny.

Everyone smiled humorlessly.

"Well, as everyone thinks I'm a mad mass murderer and the Ministry's put a ten-thousand-Galleon price on my head, I can't walk up the street and start handing out posters, can I?" asked Sirius jokingly.

"And I'm not a very popular dinner guest with most of the community," started Lupin, "It's not very 'safe' having a werewolf in you house, and they wouldn't believe me, anyways."

"Wait, your a convicted murder-" said Danny pointing to Sirius, who nodded, "-and your a werewolf?" Lupin also nodded. "Guess you were right when you said that you know how I feel," muttered Danny.

"Have you told anyone and do they believe you?" asked Harry.

"Yes, we've convinced some people. Tonks for one, and some people that work with Arthur," answered Lupin.

"And he's after something else," added Sirius.

Lupin nodded, "Stuff he can only get by stealth."

"Like a weapon. Something he didn't have last time," continued Sirius after seeing the confused look on Harry's face.

"When he was powerful before?"

"Yes."

"What kind of a weapon?" asked Harry, "Something worse than the Avada Kedavra-"

"That's enough." Mrs. Weasley said walking into the kitchen.

"Wait, I don't even know what Avada Kedavra is!" protested Danny.

"Fine, someone tell him the three unforgivable curses then we will all go to bed," said Mrs. Weasley.

"There's the Imperious Curse, which let's a wizard have complete control over another person," started Sirius, "Next there's Cruciatus Curse, this causes unbearable pain, and then there's the Avada Kedavra, the killing curse. That's the curse Voldemort used on Harry's parents and then on Harry. He's the only one that has survived it," he finished.

There was silence for a moment until Mrs. Weasly ushered them all upstairs.

Danny, Ron and Harry were sharing a room. They got ready for bed and fell asleep without talking at all.

---------------------------------------------------------

MOVE ALONG, MOVE ALONG! I'm now listening to THAT song! HA!

I hope you like it. I'm going to change it from the book more when they get to school. Harry is still going to have the dreams and stuff like that, but it's going to be changed as far as adding Danny to everything.

Even when your hope is gone, Move along move along.

Sorry.

Anyway, I have the fifth book right here on my desk for reface. To use at any time.

I'll probably start typing the next chapter soon.

Hey! I've been thinking, I don't think I'm going to do any pairings. I think just some flirting here and there. Someone gave me that idea, said it takes away from the plot to have romance. There's that and everyone want different pairings and I can't choose. Although I probally WILL do pairings for the sequel. Yes sequel. "The Half-blood Prince" (I'll have to think about a cool name, put something ghost related in.) "Half-blood Ghost?" "Half-blood Ghost Prince?" Come on people give me ideas!
