DISCLAIMER: I don't own Harry Potter, J.K. does, and she has every right to do whatever she thinks is best for Harry Potter. I just love writing.

Review, review, review. :)

Sirius, Remus and Tonks were sitting in the kitchen on an early morning. It's been three days since the insane shopping mania and it was finally the day Hermione and Harry will start training by all the three of them. Harry and Hermione tried to find out what training were they going to be put through but the other three were tight lipped about it. Whenever either of them would ask the three about the training and what will it be about they would get "It's a surprise." Or "Be patient." Or they would simple avoid it by talking about something completely irrelevant.

Tonks checked the time from her wrist watch "Well… time to wake them up." She announced as pushed herself and she stood up from the chair."I will get Hermione, Sirius you get Harry an Remus you start setting up the place." She ordered them as she got up and went to Hermione's room to wake her up.

Sirius got up from his place rubbing his eyes, to wake up Harry but Remus could a glint in his eyes "I think I should wake him up, why don't you set up here." He suggested though already knowing the answer to it.

"Nope, I am going to wake him, Tonks order." He said grinning.

Remus sighed and shook his head and he called behind him "Only wake him up Sirius, nothing else." He warned.

"Remus, you actually think I am that evil to wake him any other way other than shaking him lightly and waking him slowly and steadily in this early, bright morning." He asked him in an innocent tone the glint in his eyes now pronounced than ever.

"I know you Sirius, do not prank him; at least not now, not this early." He said.

"Yes master." He mocked him as he went to wake his godson up.

Sirius went to Harry's room and pushed it open. He allowed himself and smiled at the scene in front of him; Harry sleeping on the bed without any worries he almost didn't want to wake him up where the keyword being almost. He went near him and called him.

"Harry..."

No response.

"Harry…come on get up." Sirius called again.

"One more time." He thought.

"Harry, get up. Today your training starts. Harry… Harry get up, Harry." He called last time.

"You asked for it." He mumbled under his breath as he smirked at his sleeping form in front of him.

"Aguamenti!" he exclaimed, drenching Harry with ice cold water which seemed to wake him up immediately.

"Aahh!" Harry got up screaming, drenched from head to toe. He sprang out of the bed and instantly snatched his spectacles from the side table and saw Sirius standing at the edge of the bed smirking down at him.

"Oh! Good you are wake, get up it's your first day of training." He said innocently as he slipped out of the room with a raging Harry following him soon after.

"Sirius, you better run, because when I get you… you surely will be dead" Harry growled and ran behind him. Both of them quickly reached the kitchen and saw Remus, Tonks and Hermione staring at them. They both immediately stopped running. Hermione had already changed into her exercise clothes. She was wearing a sports bra and track pants.

Sirius and Harry stood in front of them. Harry was drenched. His clothes were sticking to his body, strands of dark, black hair sticking to his forehead. He looked like a drenched cat.

"What happened?" Hermione asked them. Harry couldn't speak. He was spell bounded. He stared at her slim, sleek waist which was uncovered. He felt that the piece of skin was calling him to touch it and caress it. She looked amazing in her clothes. It looked as though the clothes were meant to fit her. It fit her so well. She looked so… sexy.

"Harry?" she asked again. This snapped Harry of his musings bringing him to the real world. He shook his head.

"Sirius." Harry said his name in disdain and everyone knew what had happened. Shaking his head he turned and went to his room to change. "Watch out Sirius." He called as he turned towards his room.

"I warned you." He heard Remus say to Sirius. 'You better watch out' Harry thought as a sly smile slide on his face. Within minutes Harry had changed into his exercise clothes. He was wearing a loose shirt and track pants which were for the first time fit him right.

"So, what are we doing today?" Hermione asked them excitedly as Harry joined them.

"Run." Remus spoke.

"We are going to run, just that?" Harry asked doubtfully.

"Yup." Tonks said standing on her toes for no reason.

"But where?"

"You haven't seen our backyard, have you Harry?" Remus asked.

"No…"

"Well come on then." Remus said as he went to the backyard. The sight before Harry's eyes baffled him. The backyard was huge. It was a surprising scene for Harry. The place was full of greenery. Grass with dew drops growing all over the place, trees shading the whole place. The size of the backyard was of the size of one and a half Quidditch fields. There was a pond at the side. There were tracks made for Harry and Hermione to run in. one lap must be one a mile and more.

"Well… start running." Sirius said snapping Harry from his musings.

"How many laps?" asked Hermione as she tied her hair in a tight bun on the top of her head.

"We'll see..." Tonks replied.

"What do you mean by that?" Harry asked her.

"You both, just start running, we'll tell when you can stop." Remus said motioning to the tracks. Nodding their heads they started running together on the tracks, soon finding a comfortable speed for them both. The first two laps were easy, they ran without any problem. As they ran, their breath became irregular, they eventually started panting, their calves felt as though they were on fire. Their lungs were burning. Harry's shirt was stuck to his body as his second skin. They running their eighth lap when, at last Tonks asked them to stop. They went to the kitchen and sat down heavily on the chairs. Water was instantly presented in front of them. They drank it as though they were thirsty for weeks.

"No more." Harry said wheezing slightly.

"Yes, that's enough for today." Tonks said.

"Go freshen up, then we'll have breakfast." Remus said.

With a groan they booth stood up, pushing themselves from the table with great difficulty, still breathless. They went to their room, took a bath and then came downstairs with a new set of clothes thanks to Tonks. They both came to the kitchen together.

As they all sat for breakfast Hermione spoke up "We are only going to run… that's it, nothing more?"

"Yes, that's enough for now." Sirius said.

"Then when are we going to start with spells and all?" asked Harry.

"Soon." Remus answered.

"How soon?"

"Soon Harry." Tonks said now little irritated by his questions.

The rest of the breakfast was spent in silence except "Can I have some bread." And "Pass me the eggs." After breakfast, everyone helped to clean the table, keeping the utensils at their right place when suddenly Tonks stilled I her movement and the plates she was carrying in her hand fell from her hand onto the floor crashing, becoming thousands of pieces.

"Tonks… Tonks what happened?" Hermione asked her immediately looking at her with concern.

"Tonks, honey… are you okay?" Remus was next as he reached next to her and put his hands on her shoulder as he shook her softly. Sirius quickly repaired the dishes as he mumbled a quite "Repairo."

Tonks slowly came into the present and spoke "There's an order meeting in an hour."

"What?" Harry asked.

"I have been called for an immediate, emergency Order meeting." She explained.

"But…" Remus said looking confused "I wasn't called for one."

"How's that possible." Hermione asked."You said that day that you all get the message together at the same time." Her question directed to Remus.

"I don't know."

"We don't have time to think about that now?" Sirius interrupter Hermione and then looked at Tonks.

"Where is the meeting?" he asked her

"Your place." She replied instantly

"This meeting has to be important, that's the only reason they would have an emergency meeting." He said again.

"Is their anyway we can listen what is going on at Grimmauld Place?" Harry asked looking at Remus and Sirius. The next he knows that Hermione is instantly on her feet and running up th stairs while everyone is looking at her retreating figure.

Half an hour later Hermione found the others in the living room in silence. "Here." Hermione said slightly breathless as she gave Tonks something covered in paper.

"What's this?" Tonks asked as she looked at it.

"Open it." She said pointing at it. Tonks nodded as she tore open the paper in curiosity as the others looked on.

"Where did you get that from?" Harry asked as he looked at the two-way mirror he had gotten from Sirius.

She saw Sirius and Remus shocked looks and Harry's questioning one "It's not the same one, but it is a replica of it and I have the other one here." She showed the other one. "I just thought that Tonks only being called and not Remus, it is strange, so if Tonks could tuck this thing in her back pocket of the jeans she is wearing now then we all can hear what's going on there." She suggested.

"That… is an excellent idea Hermione." Sirius praised her while she just blushed. She gave it to Tonks and she immediately tucked it into her pocket.

"I should be leaving now." Tonks said as she got up and slipped into the coat which Remus got for her.

"Good luck." Remus told her softly and softly kissing her. She nodded and waved at everyone and walked off to the apparating point and apparated to the Grimmauld Place. Harry, Hermione, Sirius and Remus all sat in front of the other mirror.

Tonks apparated right in front of the house and steeled herself before going in into the house. She walked through the hall carefully and saw Molly Weasley bustling in the kitchen and acting as though, it was her own kitchen.

"Tonks dear." She crooned when she saw her entering the kitchen.

"Wotcher, Molly." She replied cheerfully faking a smile at her.

"How are you doing dear?" Molly asked as she came forward and hugged her.

"I am fine molly. What about you and your family." Tonks replied stepping away from the moment she released her from her death grip.

"Oh! We are going fine." She said waving her hand "It's just a little hard, that's all. I mean Ron and Ginny are worried about Hermione and Harry and so are we, there are some problems in the ministry too and Bill…"

"What happed to Bill?"

"Oh! Nothing, he is just feeling a little lonely. He doesn't have so many friends here, you see. All of them are in Egypt. He is just having some problem in settling down, that's all." Molly said as she smiled at her.

"Why? What happened to Fleur?" she asked remembering the French beauty.

"Don't you know she isn't here; she's gone back to France to stay with her family."

When Tonks didn't say anything about it Molly spoke up "Would you do me favour dear?"

"Of course Molly."Tonks said as she grinded her teeth softly.

"How about you spend some time with Bill. You know him quite well maybe help him settle down here." She suggested. Remus growled at hearing this, his nails digging into his palm.

"Oh! Molly of course, how about I ask Remus to come with me too."

"Oh! Don't trouble him dear." Molly said her smile slipping slightly

"No, no he won't mind if I tell after all we both are going out."

"You are what?"

"Oh1 didn't you know, me and Remus are a couple." She said innocently.

"Is that so…" Molly voice faded.

"Yup."

"Well congratulations then dear." She said forcing herself to be happy for them.

"Thank you. When is the meeting going to start?"

"Just about now… how about you go to the other room, it is going to be held there." She answered excitedly.

"Something definitely big is going to happen." Hermione announced when they heard nothing from the mirror for few minutes.

"Yeah." Harry agreed with her. Remus opened his mouth to say something when they could hear someone speaking from the mirror.

Tonks entered the room which Molly had shown. She was surprised to see many of the order members who are also Auror or work with the ministry in one way or another present there. She also noticed that there wasn't anyone there who had direct contact with Harry.

"Wotcher Arthur."

"Hello Tonks." He replied as he bowed his head when he saw her.

"What's going on today?" she asked. Author was about to answer her when Mad eye Moody entered the room.

"The order meeting is starting." And everybody immediately stopped what they were doing and gave him hundred percent attentions. Today's meeting is very important and is very, very special.

"May be it will be best if I would explain it to them, Alastor." A voice came from the other room. And right in front of their eyes, came Albus Dumbledore walking into the room, looking anything but dead.

Then the chaos broke out.
