Chapter 8 - A Midnight Discovery
Harry had only worked out when the first DA meeting would be - Monday (today was Sunday,), but he hadn't planned any others yet. Hermione thought, that it would have been best if they didn't have a set schedule anyway, that way it wouldn't be too suspicious. That was where her ingenious plan of communication came in to action. She held out a galleon to Harry, (Ron thought she was giving out money).
'Excellent?' Harry asked, looking at the galleon in Hermione's hand
'Look,' she demonstraited how harry could change the date and time on his, and how all the others changed too and heat up.
'Um,'
'You change the date and time on yours, it changes on ours. That's when the next DA meeting is.'
'Oh, excellent.' He said taking the coin in Hermione's hand
'Where are the meetings going to be held though?'
'Liss and I were going to explore tonight under the cloak.'
'Oh, okay,' Ron had a hurt expression on his face, Hermione pulled him away before Harry could notice though.
Larissa crept into the Gryffindor fifth year boys dormitory, that night at half past midnight. Before she was hardly in the door, Harry put his arm around her waist, and put a hand over her mouth to stifle her gasp of suprise as he dragged her out of the room. He took her hand, and they silently went down the stairs, and under the invisibility cloak, out into the corridor.
'Don't scare me like that Harry.'
'Shhhh. I solemly swear that I am up to no good.' He whispered. 'All clear.' They wondered the castle for a while looking for somewhere that would fit about twenty five people in, all practicing magic. They walked past a wall once.
'Filtch is coming.' Harry hissed in his god sister's ear, they walked passed the wall (twice).
'I know a short cut, go the other way.' Larissa whispered. (Thrice). A door appeared,
'In here.' She whispered, they went through the door and into a room.
'That was close... We still need a place that we can practice in though. A place that can hold twenty five people, all preacticing spells.' Harry said. The contents of the room dissolved, and were replaced by... Well, exactly what Harry had asked for.
'You've found the Room of Requirement.' Hermione said, as she listened the next day.
'The what?' Ron asked
'The Room of Requirement! That's where I was last year when, you know...'
'Sirius was put in Azkaban.' Harry finished for her, he knew she still felt guilty about not believing that he didn't murder Pettigrew.
'Yeah,' she said softly
'Right, I think it's time to get the coins out, don't you Harry?'
'I think you might be right Hermione.' Harry took his coin out of his pocket, and put in the date and time of the first meeting.
'I think we should go and investigate.' Hermione said, as she went out of the common room. They all followed her, to where she had just gone inside the Room of Requirement. Hermione pinned up the 'Dumbledores Army' member sheet, and she picked up some parchment that had just appeared, along with a quill. She gave it to Harry, instructing him that he needed to make a list of things to go over, and lessons to plan. So the four of them spent the rest of the day in the Room of Requirement, making lists of this and that.
