AN: This chapter lines up more with the original chapter one. Not sure I made a ton of changes to this one but some because it is longer. Maybe I ranted too much.

Sakura Lisel: Thank you. I appreciate that you have been with me since the beginning. I put the old version back up. When I reposted I was literally experimenting with Fan Fictions publishing system since I honestly have not messed with the functions much before. I think I understand how it all works now.

Feathertail 36: I promise I never forgot. Thank you also for sticking with me. Writers block has been kicking my butt.

As for the boys being related. I know but I like the idea of them being related so through ancestry/descendants they will be. Because remember I am not doing the whole half soul thing. I like whole soul reincarnation better. It doesn't sit right with me for some reason. So basically Seto, Isis, and Shadi are reborn as themselves due to some spell they cast before they die to pull them out of the Afterlife to aid the pharaoh but are only born in their descendants' line. So for this story that means that even though it wasn't Kisara, Seto still had to produce an heir when he was pharaoh so the bloodline continues for thousands of years. And we know the tomb keepers kept procreating from the cartoon.

Paili-chan: I promise they will not take over the non-magical side of Egypt's government. Isn't it fascinating how in real life not fantasy it's been just over 2,000 years since the last reigning pharaoh ruled over Egypt? (Cleopatra/Ptolemy) I didn't realize until I looked it up that the Romans in charge of Egypt have also been called Pharaoh. Amarna itself has an interesting history when it was the capitol of Egypt and the Pharaoh Akhenaten who worshipped Aten.

Things you need to know:

I have read all the books but it's easier to re-watch movies then re-read the books.

Concepts Used: gently touching on abusive Dursleys, mentor Snape (not Sevitus), manipulative Dumbledore, Harry somewhat more aware

I am not following the HP calendar. I will be off by at least a day for 5th year.

Some of the issues I point out are from the books and movies more the movies though. I couldn't list every little thing and look back at every single book to find specific moments of what the hell or what were they thinking. There are plenty though.

I use the trope with the twin speak because I enjoy it. I realize it's not canon.

Chapter 2

Little Whinging, Privet Drive
Harry was angry. Not only did he have to spend his summer with the Dursley's yet again, he had heard no news from the wizarding world. Ron and Hermione told him nothing in their letters. He thought with Voldemort's return there might have been some news anything at all.

On top of the lack of communication from the wizarding world it had also not been a good summer so far. His Uncle had been particularly cruel lately. Harry tried to spend as much time out of the house as possible to avoid his drunken wrath. Why Dumbledore insisted on Harry having to return every summer was beyond his comprehension. He didn't even understand why Dumbledore had any say in where he was staying. He would love to know what was in his parents' will. Did they really leave him to his magic hating aunt and uncle? Part of him wondered if Dumbledore knew what he was sending Harry back into every summer.

His original letter was addressed to the cupboard under the stairs. How could that not raise any suspicions or the fact that the headmaster had to send someone to give him his letter and retrieve his acceptance out in the middle of nowhere because his dear relatives were avoiding the psychotic amount of letters being delivered at home? Even Hagrid had a generalized idea on how his relatives treated him and he certainly wasn't the most observant person on the planet so how could Dumbledore not know anything. It all made very little sense.

It didn't help that Harry had also been having nightmares of Cedric in the graveyard, a dark hallway that never ended, and strange monsters coming out of the shadows. The weird looking monsters freaked him out the most. These night mares didn't really allow for much sleep which made it harder to get everything that his aunt and uncle wanted completed throughout the days. It seemed like the list of chores got longer every day and the punishments got harsher if he was unable to complete his tasks.

Although Harry had finished his chores for the day and was currently brooding at the park by his house. He was sick and tired of being left out of the loop. He felt like if he had more information he could be better prepared for what was to come. Why had Dumbledore abandoned him?

He thought back to his the last four years of his life and the insanity that had ensued. He retraced his first year which made little sense now that he thought back to it. It was amazing how his first year alone gave him every clue he needed to realize he was being completely manipulated had he been more observant.

At that point he had absolutely no knowledge of the wizarding world and who did the headmaster send to fetch him. Hagrid of all people. He loved Hagrid but who sends a half-giant who is forbidden from using magic to introduce the wizarding world to a muggle raised child. Hagrid also didn't exactly blend in with muggles either. But Hagrid was one hundred percent Dumbledore's man and advocated the headmaster so strongly to his relatives that night that he didn't think to question Dumbledore's intentions over the next few years. He had felt like he had been saved from his imprisonment with his relatives so why question his saviors. Hagrid had even made sure he knew that basically any and all who went into Slytherin came out evil when he was taken to Diagon Alley. His opinion of Hufflepuff hadn't been spectacular after his trip either he realized sadly. He truly hoped there was a better system in place for muggle-borns than the introduction he had to the wizarding world.

The whole train issue was a bit suspicious also. Hagrid conveniently forgot to tell Harry how to get on Platform 9 and ¾ and then leaves an 11 year old alone at a train station. Who does that? Another suspicious convenience was the timely arrival of the Weasley family. For starters how does a mother who had 2 children already graduated, and three currently enrolled at Hogwarts not know where the platform was? Seriously, how idiotic is that?

Honestly if he thought back to his train ride he was again directed away from Slytherin from Ron though with how narrow-minded and bigoted Ron was he probably didn't even do it on purpose. Ron was definitely just as bad as the Malfoy's of the world out there. One of Ron's first comments on his family confirmed that. The Weasleys' didn't talk about their relative that turned out to be a squib like it was a shameful dark mark on the family. They were just as bad as the rest of wizarding society and they were considered a family that firmly stood for the Light. Harry tried not to ponder that one too closely. Ron and his family maybe as bad as the rest of the wizarding world but he was Harry's friend and the others had welcomed him with open arms.

Then there was the school year itself. Hagrid was awful at keeping secrets so it was easy to figure out what the mystery was behind the 3rd floor corridor. And please he was eleven for Merlin's sake. Any kids would be curious about all the mysterious hints being dropped. Seriously who gives an eleven year old an invisibility cloak and access to the key to getting the philosophers stone. Even the protections themselves were simple tasks to a bunch of first years. How hard was it really for the Dark Lord to get through? And who brings a mystical item in that would lure a sociopath to a school's doorsteps? Of all the idiotic things Dumbledore could do he endangered every student in the school.

Harry sighed loudly while continuing to swing slowly focusing on his internal rant. He knew Dumbledore had encouraged his adventures at school over the years. He never got in trouble for the breaking of school rules in fact he generally got rewarded for his suicidal tendencies. Again his first year alone proved that. He and the others got points after the house points had been tallied and awarded. What does Dumbledore do? It certainly wasn't leaving well enough alone that's for sure. He actually gave Harry and the others last minute points so that Gryffindor won the house cup. Looking back that was really crappy of the Headmaster. The Slytherins had won and it was taken away from them without a second thought. It was no wonder the animosity was so strong between the two houses.

He felt like his second year adventures had been just as insane along with his third year when Dumbledore had actually encouraged two thirteen year olds to go back in time using the time turner. Then last year was really what clued Harry in. The Headmaster had blatantly used him as bait to catch the one who was after him during the tri-wizard tournament. After that Harry realized he was just a pawn in whatever it was Dumbledore was planning.

Unfortunately the headmaster hid his secrets well. Did the Headmaster really want him to face off with Voldemort? He had a feeling that's what was expected of him since he was Voldemort's number one target. What he didn't understand was why would Dumbledore leave him in the dark about everything and why if he needed Harry was he not being trained to fight properly. It's was as if he was meant to lose the fight because he sure couldn't defeat Voldemort at this stage of the game. If his friends had not been there for him he surely would have died on some of their adventures. He didn't even want to face off against Voldemort. Why should he? He was only fifteen years old for Merlin's sake. Who in their right mind has a teenager go fight against a full grown adult who is considered the most powerful dark wizard of all time? That old man was sneakier than a Slytherin and crazier than Lindsey Lohan on drugs. (couldn't find a better analogy)

What was he being prepared for and why for the love of any gods out there did he have to be with the Dursley's every summer? The Headmaster was Chief Warlock of the bloody Wizengamot, why couldn't he get Sirius a fair trial so he could live with his beloved Godfather. Oh, that's right that would make sense. Part of him just wanted to run away and forget it all.

His dark thoughts were soon interrupted by his oversized whale of a cousin Dudley and his gang of "friends". They made some jabs at each other and Harry finally having enough when Dudley made fun of his nightmares pulled his wand. The others just laughed but Dudley got the point and gulped slightly. Then all of a sudden the darkness came. Dudley's gang ran for it.

"Let's get out of here!" said a slightly panicked Harry.

"What did you do?" hissed Dudley as they began to run.

"Nothing you moron, I can't make the sky black." panted Harry, tired from the running. They slowed down once they reached the alley that led back to their road.

The dementors attacked the two boys and Harry cast the patronus charm. Mrs. Figg came by and told them to hurry up. Mrs. Figg explained who she was and Harry was in shock. He could not believe Dumbledore was having him watched.

They arrived back to the house and Harry got a letter from the ministry saying he was expelled and to go to a hearing for underage magic on August 12th. His Uncle was ticked to say the least. When the Dursleys' got home from taking Dudley to the ER; Vernon made Harry "regret hurting Dudley". Vernon made sure to only do damage where it would not be seen since they had received a second letter moments after their return home saying Harry was going to be picked up soon. That did not stop Vernon from being any less brutal. He lay there hurting and waiting for whoever was going to pick him up.

What he had not expected was a full entourage of wizards entering his room to get him. Remus and Moody were there and so were a few wizards he did not know. Harry got up slowly and got his things together, trying not to aggravate his bruised ribs and winced slightly at the pain just from moving around too much. When he arrived downstairs Remus introduced the others as Tonks, Kingsley Shacklebolt, Elphias Doge, and a few others he couldn't remember already. He was too foggy from the pain.

"Alright let's get a move on. No time to waste. We will be flying to London." Moody said.

"What?" Harry loudly objected, thinking about how painful that would be with his bruises, he asked why they could not use another method of travel.

"This is the only safe way to get you to safety." Moody snapped annoyed at the brat-who-lived.

Harry didn't bother arguing with the ex-auror. Everyone got on their brooms and headed out. Harry was not happy to say the least. He was numb and sore by the time they finally made it to a rundown neighborhood somewhere in London. Moody shoved a piece of paper in his hands and told him to memorize it. Harry looked at the paper and looked at the others in question. A house began to move the others over as soon as he looked up. Harry was surprised to say the least. They told him to go in quietly and followed him inside.

"Welcome to Number 12 Grimmauld Place," Sirius said dryly greeting his godson with a huge hug. Harry winced from the physical touch but no one seemed to notice his discomfort.

Mrs. Weasley greeted him with a motherly hug and fussed over how he was too skinny. He cringed slightly from the pain of his bruises. He was seriously done with hugs for the evening. She then shooed him upstairs to his room with Ron. He walked in and Hermione flung herself on him giving him a bone-breaking hug. Harry just stiffened a bit at the contact trying not to react. Ron looked over to Harry in jealousy but quickly schooled his features. He was not fast enough for Harry to miss the look though. Harry wondered at that look but didn't understand it. Harry was still very angry with his friends so he pushed his confusion aside but he did decide to attempt to stay calm.

"So how long have you two been here?" Harry asked.

"A little while." Ron answered not wanting Harry to know they had been together without him for the last month.

"Why has there been no news on Voldemort? Your letters told me nothing all summer." Harry asked with a bit of an edge coming to his voice.

Hermione backed off away from her angry friend. "We couldn't tell you Harry. Dumbledore would not allow us to write you about anything that happened here in fear of interference." Hermione said as if that explained their refusal to communicate with him completely.

"Besides Mate, there was not much to tell about you-know-who, he has been lying low." Ron said trying to make Harry feel better but it seemed to backfire.

"Since when did Dumbledore become the person in charge of what you write to me? He is our Headmaster not your parents! And what do you mean there is nothing to tell me. We are sitting in a dark and gloomy house with a bunch of strange wizards that came to pick me up whom I have never met before. Why are we here? Who are all these people and why is everyone being so secretive?" Harry asked rambling off his many questions at once.

"We are sorry Harry we did not know what was going on here until we arrived ourselves. It would probably be better if you talk to Sirius about everything he probably knows more than we do," Hermione said trying to appease the temperamental teen.

"Fine I will if my own friends won't help me," Harry said as he stalked out of the room and went to find Sirius. Hermione left Ron in the bedroom to fume and went to her own room she shared with Ginny.

Harry found his godfather sitting in the kitchen and asked him where they were and why all these people were here. Sirius explained that the Order of the Phoenix was an organization headed by Dumbledore to fight against Voldemort. He told Harry that this was his childhood home and they were using it for the headquarters.

"This has also become my prison, Dumbledore won't let me leave the house because it's too risky," Sirius added bitterly.

He ranted about not being able to help the Order. He also told Harry about the smear campaign against him and Dumbledore for saying that Voldemort was back and that the Ministry was completely against them.

"There is something else Harry, they don't want me to tell you but Voldemort is looking for a weapon of some sort. It's something he didn't have in the last war. No one seems to know what it is as of yet." Sirius said a little more quietly but was still interrupted by an angry Molly Weasley.

"Sirius! Harry is too young to know Order business," she yelled as she began ushering Harry out of the kitchen and up the stairs. Harry just glared too tired to argue and said goodnight to the two adults.

Harry arrived outside his door and heard harsh whispers. He decided to stand there and eavesdrop. He heard Ginny and Ron arguing about him. He caught, "Ginny you need to win him over this year. Dumbledore wants you two together soon and if you want extra money in our private vaults you need to step it up." Ron said angrily towards his sister.

"Well you need to get over your jealousy of him and start trying to act like his friend Ronald," Ginny snapped at him.

Harry felt a myriad of emotions; anger, hurt, and betrayal were a few. Suddenly the twins popped in and startled Harry out of his dark thoughts.

Fred: What are…
George: you doing Harry?

The twins asked. He was not sure what to say to them. Many thoughts raced through his head. Harry pathetically stuttered out that he was just about to head to sleep. The twins looked at him a bit oddly but left him be. Harry, Fred, and George entered the room to find Ginny and Ron glaring at each other. When Ginny saw Harry her eyes lit up in excitement and she went over to hug him and greeted him warmly. Harry pretended nothing was wrong not sure how to react so went with playing dumb. He acted like he was happy to see Ginny and apologized to Ron for his earlier outburst. The twins looked at Harry oddly but stayed quiet. They said good night and popped into their shared room. Ginny said goodnight and left the boys be. Harry made his excuses and went right to bed.

Harry woke late then next morning and really was not in a pleasant mood. He felt completely and utterly betrayed by Ron and Ginny. They were supposed to be his friends. He wondered who else was using him for their own personal gain. He was still unsure where Hermione's loyalties lay but hoped she was a true friend.

Fred and George spent the day with Harry trying to cheer him up. He was grateful for their antics. Harry was sure that they were still trustworthy and hoped he was not wrong.

Later that night before the Order meeting was set to begin Harry went downstairs to get away from Ginny and Ron. He heard voices from the kitchen and he crouched low to listen in wondering who was in there since the meeting was not due to start yet. It appeared to be only a few of the Order members. He only heard Dumbledore and two other voices.

"Thank you Alastor and Mundungus for meeting me early tonight," Dumbledore said and started the private meeting off by talking with Moody first. "Alastor how was Harry when you picked the boy up," Albus asked with little concern in his voice.

"He was slightly bruised and malnourished but did not seem too worse for wear." Moody reported unemotionally.

"Excellent, I do not want Dursley to break the boy, just make easier to control. He needs to continue to dislike the muggle world and feel relief when coming to Hogwarts. We need him to the point where he is willing to die for the light at the hands of Voldemort when the time is right and I am not positive the boy is to that point yet." Albus said to the two men gravely.

"The other order members will be here shortly. We will talk again soon. And Mundungus keep investigating what it is Voldemort is looking for in Egypt." Albus ordered. "Bill has reported Death Eater activity at various dig-sites. What it is they are looking for we do not know. The mysteries and secrets of a place so ancient and magical are sometimes best left alone." Albus finished explaining.

He knew…Harry almost gave himself away. He did not know what to do. Harry slowly backed away from the door. His suspicions confirmed now. All Harry wanted to do at that moment was run away. Fred and George came down the stairs with all intents and purposes to listen in on the order meeting till they saw the look on Harry's face. They pulled Harry into a room away from prying ears and cast a silencing charm around the room.

Fred: What is going on Harry?
George: You have been on edge since you got here and now look as if you're going to flee in terror.

Harry wanted to tell them, but could he trust them? Instead of answering their questions he asked, "Who are you loyal to?"

The twins looked at him curiously trying to understand what he meant since they knew Harry knew they were for the light. They finally figured out Harry meant literally who and answered him. Harry was relieved. He told the twins everything he heard from their brother and sister. His insecurities about Hermione and what he had just heard Albus tell Moody and Mundungus. Harry waited in silence for the twins reaction to what he had told them hoping this was not a mistake. Fred and George were in shock and yet not as in shock as they thought they should have been.

Fred: We always knew Ron was a bit jealous and greedy.
George: Ginny doesn't really surprise us either. Dumbledore is definitely
Fred: manipulative enough to use you and your fame. We stand by
George: what we said earlier. We are loyal to you. You are our
Fred: friend and we will not abandon you even if it is our family we go against. So what
George: is the plan now?

Harry sighed and said he was not sure. He realized Dumbledore could not find out that he knew all this so he figured it was best to play along and continue his friendship with Ron and Ginny. The twins agreed that was probably best. They did not know who else or if anyone else in their family was in on this but wanted to find out. They were disgusted with their youngest siblings.

"Don't worry Harry we will be around this year, and you can always come to us if you need to talk or vent." Fred said seriously.

"And when the time is right we can seek out revenge on Ron and Ginny for betraying you," Smirked George evilly.

The trio headed out of the room and ran into Hermione, Ron, and Ginny listening into the Order meeting. Harry asked them if they heard anything good yet and the three shook their heads in the negative. Ron complained they were just rehashing things they already knew and thought the meeting was pointless. Harry just nodded and told them to let him know if they found anything out while heading upstairs. Hermione and Ron were surprised that Harry was not joining them. The twins popped out and up to their rooms saying goodnight. When Ron and Hermione came upstairs they found Harry reading. Harry looked up and asked them if there was any news. Hermione and Ron both shook their heads yes.

"We think we know where the weapon is being hidden," Ron said excitedly. Harry perked up at that. He knew Dumbledore had mentioned Egypt but was unsure why.

"It is something hidden at the Ministry in the Department of Mysteries. Dumbledore has Order members guarding it round the clock," Hermione finished quietly. They told Harry they were unable to discover what it was the Ministry was hiding.

"What is the Department of Mysteries?" asked Harry curiously.

Hermione went into lecture mode "Well it is a department that lies deep in the ninth level of the Ministry of Magic. It carries out confidential research. Wizards who work in the Department of Mysteries are known as Unspeakables. Supposedly you can get there from lifts in the Ministry Atrium and then you follow a dark corridor which leads to a door which is the actual entrance to the department."

"How do you know all this Hermione," Harry asked.

"I read it in a book when I was doing some light reading on the Ministry of Magic." she stated.

The boys groaned loudly at her statement. As their discussion came to an end Hermione and Ron headed to bed. Harry laid awake in his bed thinking about their conversation. They had mentioned nothing of Egypt at all. Were they lying to him? But then what about his dreams? Hermione had described the corridor that was plaguing his dreams. It was getting too complicated. Harry gave up for the night and went to sleep.

Harry's hearing came all too quickly. It was a complete joke. Dumbledore showed up and got the Wizengamot to declare Harry not guilty and then he promptly disappeared ignoring Harry completely.

Finally the day came when Harry, Hermione, and the Weasley clan were boarding the Hogwarts Express and finally heading to school. It was a quiet affair. Hermione and Ron were busy with prefect duties. Neville, Ginny, and a strange girl named Luna joined Harry and the twins. They chatted aimlessly, ate candy, and played exploding snap. Ginny sat as close to Harry as she possibly could without sitting on him. Luna watched her friend's hopeless antics with Harry. Ginny did not seem to realize Harry was obviously not interested. Malfoy made his yearly appearance but the twins were ready with a prank the second he opened the door, green goo landed on him and his goons. It slowly began to turn their skin green. Malfoy stormed off without even getting a word in. Everyone found this highly amusing. And thus the school year began.
