After an eventful year at Hogwarts Harry, Ron and Hermione venture home. Each of them are aware of how quickly life has changed. Not so long ago did they sit in the train carriage, watch the countryside fly by and talk amongst themselves about what now seems to be insignificant. Voldemort is back and difficult as this may be to comprehend, it is now the reality of their world. The only thing which makes this easier to comprehend is the knowledge that they are not alone. James is an extremely skilled auor who wins more battles than he loses. Of course his greatest strength is being a fearless father and he will do all that is necessary to protect his son. This knowledge alone encourages Harry to do what he must to defeat Voldemort. After all he is not called the boy who lived for no reason.

Sirius is notorious for his red hot temper and rebellious nature. He, unlike James, tends to never need a plan when it comes to fighting. This is quite possibly the reason he is always the death eaters choice to eliminate first. Sirius is no fool. A lose canon he may be but he is also quick thinking in battles. Over the years Harry and Sirius have been incredibly close. Being appointed Harry`s godfather once gave Sirius perspective but now it gives him ammunition for taking out anybody that is a threat. However, the one task which Sirius must accomplish is to find common ground with his old enemy Severus Snape. A tricky character he may be but trustworthy nonetheless.

Remus is the gentle force which maintains stability within this group. Since he was eleven years old he has felt obligated to keeping his two best friends in order. Even though Harry and he didn`t spend a particular amount of time together while he was growing up, this all changed once Remus began teaching at Hogwarts. Harry always knew he could rely on Remus but recent events have escalated just how much Remus is capable of. Naturally becoming a father has increased Remus` desire to ensure the demise of Voldemort happens sooner rather than later. The question is how far is Remus prepared to go? How much is he willing to sacrifice? These are all questions we should ask ourselves when danger for those we love arises. Remus most definitely will.

Lily as we all know is a woman who should never be under estimated. As a child she always knew her mind and was determined to bring justice everywhere she went. James once believed he knew everything there was to know about women; then he met Lily Evans. Together they complement each other but fight for the same cause – to protect their children but especially their son Harry, Voldemort`s greatest enemy. Plans may have gone awry last time Voldemort had power but Lily is determined to do all that is necessary so that history won`t be repeated. She is smart enough to know that all order members must be united. The question is can she convince Snape and Sirius of this?

Stay tuned for the upcoming chapter
