"New decree," grumbles Harry on our way to a Dumbledore's Army meeting.
"I know," I respond, my fingers intertwined with Ron's. I wasn't able to crush his heart just yet. Then again it was a week ago when I went to see Draco. I'm getting soft.
"We've all got to be questioned," states Ron, his blue eyes a mask of worry.
"Let's hope people don't get lose lipped," I say as all four of us walk through the door formed in the normally plain wall.
All in all everyone has learned everything that Harry knows and everything I am willing to share. The Patronus spell is all that is left. This of course will be hard to teach.
So far in class we let people do what they want, walking around and helping. It tends to make things more interesting.
Harry is standing by Neville, "…now just focus on a fixed point and try again."
"Expelliarmus," says Neville. The dummies wand flies out of its hand.
"Very good. Keep your concentration." I state as Fred levitates someone in the air. Harry is with Cho Chang who is levitating Nigel. Harry likes her, he has for a while.
Week later
Ron follows along side me as we walk through the entrance hall, "New decree."
Harry, Hermione and I turn towards him, "We know."
"Those wishing to join the Inquisitorial Squad for extra credit may sign up in the High Inquisitor's office," I say in that annoying voice that Umbridge has.
We continue to work on various things that we've worked on before.
"Diminuendo," says Nigel before a dummy shrinks into a toy.
"Working hard is important, but there's something that matters even more…" I start walking about the room.
"Believing in yourself," finishes Harry.
I stop beside Neville who is working with Ron, "Think of it this way; every great wizard or witch in history has started out as nothing more that what we are now…students."
"If they can do it, why not us?" questions Harry, revieving cheers from a few people.
I'm proud of them. Every single one of them, they've come so far. Now if only they knew what was actually coming for them. It's a terrible thing.
Alright so I know it's really short but I had to make it that way.
