"What are you two doing? Don't sell these in the open. You'll get caught... By someone other than me." I whispered to the twins. I looked up to see Umbridge watching me. "Jeez, now I have to pretend to confiscate them. The good thing is that we are allowed to keep anything we confiscate." she slipped the hats into her bag and pretended to scold them until Umbridge's presence behind her disappeared. She sighed and touched the bag at her side. "You all will get me in trouble at this rate." Fred poked my sides making me laugh. "Fine fine, your forgiven."

I sat hidden under an invisibility cloak Dumbledore had had made for me. I was watching one of Harry's Occlumency lessons and it was taking all I had not to crack up laughing at his obvious ineptness for it. Suddenly he got the bright idea to use a shield charm. I watched in horror as Harry broke into Snape's mind, but sighed in relief remembering that memories of me were safely in a small vial on a shelf in his private room, and out of Harry's reach. After that the lesson broke into an argument that ended in Harry storming off.

"So what do you think?" Snape asked the seemingly empty corner.

I took the cloak off. "As far as Occlumency goes...hopeless...though to give him props he does have a chance at being good at leniency.."

"Quit trying to search for compliments. It is annoying." He ran his hand through his greasy hair "Think you can convince Dumbledore to give up on this idea?"

"I would if I could, but you know his never give up hope deal."

"True." he sighed.

Because of my new "standing" in the school, I had to skip many of the D.A. Classes to my dismay. No one besides Fred, George, Ginny, Luna, and I knew why. I reported as much fake knowledge of rumors to Umbridge as I could and that kept her away from them for a while, and I reported any real information she gained to my lot. When the night came that she suddenly announced that we were going to capture all the secret organization members I had no time to warn everyone. She had ordered the house elves to be silent about her plot. I found Dobby in the kitchen after I slipped from the room after "briefing".

"Dobby, you know the ROR right? Alright, then go to it NOW and warn the others. Go warn Harry."

"But...Miss Evans orders are...."

"I am giving you a new order Dobby. To Harry now, and don't tell him it was me who sent you. Now go, that is an order." she gave him a hard shove and he popped away. I went back upstairs and took my station in the hallway. As frantic DA members began to appear I tried to calm them and send them a way where they wouldn't get caught, pointing them down the right hallways and telling them to slow down so they wouldn't be out of breath when they arrived at their hiding places, and telling them which places to hide. When they first saw my badge they thought I was the traitor, but then they realized I was a traitor, but against Umbridge, not them. I inconspicuously foiled the other inquisitorial squad members attempts to capture members of the DA but couldn't stop Malfoy in time to stop him from getting Harry. Helpless I returned to aiding the escape of the other members. I grabbed my cloak from my bag and slipped it on. I went up to Dumbledore's office the back way without knocking. No one noticed anything because at the same time Harry was being led in.

I stood behind Harry, just over his shoulder. I flicked a finger out of the cloak just when Dumbledore was looking over. He gave me the slightest of nods then turned his attention to giving Harry signals.

"I think Minister, we might make better progress if I fetch our informant."

"Yes, do."

A while later Cho's terrified looking friend was escorted into the room. After Umbridges longwinded recitation of what happened in the Hogs Head she was grinning with an evil menace.

The minister started cracking jokes at Dumbledore coming to Harry's aid. Dumbledore quickly countered it with pure logic. I gave Pearcy a hard punch in the gut because his responses thus far had infuriated me. His expression was well worth it. I breezed a bit to close to Harry and my cloak skittered over his hand and he looked down. I went to the girl as they were about to start questioning her and pulled out my wand.

*Legimency*

*If you try to snitch again I will personally see to it that that sneak on your face is permanent in a far uglier form then those marks. Do you understand.* I distorted my mind voice to make it so she couldn't recognize it. She did as I told immediately.

Suddenly Umbridge had the list of member's names in her hand. She read the name of our group off the top "Dumbledore's Army."

Dumbledore preceded to admit to it being all his idea. Harry tried to contradict him but was silenced by Kingsley, McGonagall, and my hand that clamped, unseen over his mouth. His eyes widened in shock that others might have thought was from Dumbledore's calling going to Azkaban a "snag". Dumbledore looked at Harry, apparently aware of my hand silencing him and gave me a look. My eyes widened and I jerked both Harry and I to the ground just as the loud crack rang through the room and everyone around us and the room was thrown off their feet quite a bit more ungracefully. I was thrown backwards against the door. I woke up seconds later.

"I apologize Sammay, I didn't mean to hit you as well." Dumbledore apologized.

"Its alright." I huffed against the pain in my ribs and the back of my head.

"When did..." Both Harry and McGonagall stuttered.

"I've been here the whole time, didn't you know." I groaned.

"I did, but the others seem to have been unaware as well. Even though you did use legitimacy on the girl and hit someone it should have been rather obvious. You even put your hand over Harry's mouth to make sure he didn't admit anything. Off with you before I must go and they awake. To the hospital wing for that broken rib and cracked skull. Take your way."

"Yes sir." I slipped my cloak back on and slipped out.
