Harry Potter and The Dark Identity at Hogwarts

Chapter 1
The Escape

	Being back at 4 Privet Drive for the summer was now a different
Story.  Harry Potter, the young and very famous wizard in the wizarding
world was enjoying now certain new freedoms that made his life less
complicated. He was still saddened by the loss of his God father but he was
trying to keep up with his life bearing with his absence as best as he
could. Thanks to the pleasant visit that the Dursleys received from members
of The Order, Harry was now being treated differently by Uncle Vernon and
Aunt Petunia.  However, all this new changes that seemed to bring a little
happiness to Harry's life was being disturbed by weird dreams at night. Not
that he wasn't used to that but this time he feared them. And this fear,
was awaking some deep emotions within Harry. Emotions that he never would
have thought he would feel, and worst of all, fear they would bring more
conflicts to his life.

======== << The Dream >> =========

	"... You can't run away kid, I've got you now!!!" Screamed a woman
"COLLOPORTUS!!!"  and then a jet of red light came out of the tip of her
wand. This jet was directed right at Harry and there was no way he could
deflect it nor evade it, he was struggling to get up from where he was but
then he heard another voice calling out his name and then he turned to his
right to see his best friend running towards him.

	"HARRY!!!" Ronald Weasely screamed as he jumped to block the curse
directed to Harry with his own body. The jet of red light hits Ron in the
back and they are strongly blasted away. Harry collides with the floor with
Ron on top of him totally unconscious. To Harry's horror, he sees lights
flashing around him and then his other friend Hermione Granger hitting the
floor hard also unconscious.

	"Now Potter, is your turn now!" said Bellatrix Lestrange, the Death
Eater who murdered his God Father Sirius Black. "AVADA KEDABRA!!!" and a
jet of green light comes out of her wand.

	"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!" screamed Harry waking up in the middle of
the night, his PJ's top drenched in cold sweat. It was that nightmare
again, he couldn't bare to see his friends being attacked that way
especially Ron, the red haired boy who became Harry's best friend the
instant they met. He felt like dying anytime he would dream of him being
killed. Harry was missing him so much. He wanted to have him right in front
of him to hug him and make sure that he was doing fine and not let anything
happen to him ever. This were the weird emotions Harry was having now. Some
weird liking of his best friend, and his desire to be with him. Harry was
confused, that affection he had for Ron was becoming stronger and changing
of level.

	"I need to get out of here!" Harry thought to himself, "I need a
way to escape and go to the Burrow to see Ron!" Harry was now desperate,
there were words that were pondering in his mind. The words that Professor
Dumbledore had said right before he came back to Privet Drive from Hogwarts
'4 Privet Drive, the House where you recede with your Aunt and Uncle, is
the safest place for you to be during the summer since your Mother and Aunt
share a great bond that extends your protection. There, Lord Voldemort
can't touch you Harry, elsewhere, you'd be in great danger!' However, he
didn't fear Voldemort, he had come to face him four times and he had been
successful in ruining his plans. But no matter how courageous Harry was,
the prophecy was still making him doubt about his own security and
strength.

	All of a sudden, there's a soft pounding on his window. He opened
it and then a huge genuine smile comes to his face. It was Hermione Granger
and Ronald Weasely.  However, that smile turns into a confused one, since
he was asking himself what on earth would his two best friends be doing at
Privet Drive, in the middle of the summer, and at that time?

	"Hermione, Ron, what are you two doing here?" Asked Harry, as the
both came inside his room through the window. "Very important business
Harry!" Replied Hermione, "Anyway, is so good to see you again!" said Harry
as he threw himself over his friends to give them a big hug. He hugged
Hermione first and gave her a soft kiss on the cheek and then turned to Ron
who wore a shy expression on his face. When Harry pulled Ron into a hug,
Harry could feel relieved of all his torments. Being in his best friends
arms right at that moment was everything for him. He also noticed that Ron
was hugging him in a very special way, like a more affectionate way. And
after what it seemed like an eternity, Hermione clearing her throat just
like the annoying professor Umbridge used to do, broke their embrace.

	"Well, Harry, is great to see you again too!" Said Hermione with a
fading smile. "Yeah mate, we were pretty worried about you after what
happened to... you know...  Sirius!" Said Ron in a concerned tone. "I
missed you!" He added but then his face turned Red just as much as his
hair. Hermione giggled and Harry was very surprised by that. "I missed you
too Ron!"  Replied Harry also blushing a bit. Hermione had now a huge smile
painted across her face.

	"All right you guys, we have important stuff to do!" Said Hermione,
"Harry, the reason we're here is because we have to escape!" Harry was very
confused by now "Professor Dumbledore wants us to go back to Hogwarts
immediately since he found out that Bellatrix Lestrange is after the three
of us!" She finished. "This is why, our dad got us a portkey to come here
and get you so that way...!" Ron was interrupted by somebody opening his
room's door. It was his aunt who had came to his room to check if he was
doing all right since she was the only one who heard him scream when he
woke up from his nightmare.

	She gasped at the sight of Ron and Hermione but then she came in
and closed the door.  The three of them were looking at her but she was
still staring at Harry.  "You must leave!"  she said bluntly. "I had an owl
from your Head Master this afternoon without Vernon noticing.  You have to
go now with your friends and make sure you take all the stuff with you!"
Harry was looking at her awestruck. He couldn't possibly believe that his
aunt was talking to him that way, without being mean and spiteful. "Now, go
on, your friends will explain everything to you when you get back to
Hogwarts!" For the first time she wore a look of concern on her face,
giving out the impression that she was worried about Harry. But not only
that, she had also mentioned for the first time Harry's school, without a
problem. "Just make sure you three get there safely!" And with that said,
she left the room.

	The three of them wore the most surprised looks on their faces
ever, especially Harry, who was still having a hard time processing what he
had just seen. "All right mate, we'll help you get ready!" Said Ron, "Yeah
but lets not make much noise, we don't want to wake your uncle!" Said
Hermione "By the way, can i use the bathroom for a sec?"  She added with a
pleading look on her face. "Yeah sure, is down the hall to your left and
make sure to keep the lights off and don't make noise! Replied Harry as he
went over to his closet to get his trunk. Hermione opened the door and left
it ajar and went tip toeing to the bathroom. Ron started helping Harry
packing all his stuff glancing at Harry every now and then. Their hands
would rub against each other's while packing his clothes and making both of
them stop and stare into each other's eyes. Harry couldn't help but to
notice a Ron's weird behavior around him the whole time, as they were
packing, there was silence, none of them were saying a word until Harry
broke the silence.

	"Ron!" He said, "Whatever happens, just remember that we're there
for each other!"  Ron stopped again and looked at him. "I know that Harry!"
He replied flashing a beautiful smile at Harry. Harry smiled too and then
some weird emotion took over him again, that feeling of hugging Ron with
all his might to show him how much he cares about him. This emotion
however, made him do something totally unexpected for the both of
them. Harry just moved towards his best friend and did as he was thinking
about it just seconds ago. He put his arms around Ron and hugged him with
all his might, trying to transmit all that he was feeling right at the
moment, Ron couldn't help but to hug him back with all his might too.

	'Come on Ron, you can do it, tell him now, it's now or never!' Ron
thought to himself then the words started to come out. "Harry...!" He
started, "there's something I need to tell you!" Harry pulled apart from
the hug and they both sat down on Harry's bed.  "What is it Ron?" Asked
Harry, who was still with the desire of hugging Ron again.

	"But before I tell you this, please know that you are my best
friend in the whole wide world and that I would never bare losing you
ever!" He said in a tone that caught Harry's attention even more. To Ron's
surprise, Harry reached for his hands and held them in his. This action
however, encouraged Ron to tell Harry what he needed to say.

	"Harry, I... ever since you rescued me from the merpeople during
the Triwizard tournament in our fourth year at Horwarts, I started to
develop very strong feelings for you.  I started to realize how important
your friendship was to me and... now, I need to tell you this. It may be
wrong to you, or maybe weird, I don't know how it happened or what got to
me but, I have... fallen... in love... with you Harry!" Said Ron with a
scared look on his eyes. Harry was speechless at Ron's confession, he never
expected that but he felt such great happiness in his heart. He finally had
defined the weird feelings that he was having towards Ron ever since a time
ago, it wasn't just friendship and care, it was love. Harry had been in
love with his best friend for a long time now and he was coming to terms
with it now that Ron was making his confession. He didn't care if that love
labeled him as gay, being a wizard was enough of a change in his life so
this wasn't a big deal. Sure it surprised him a bit since he never expected
it but it didn't really matter. What it mattered now was that he had in
front the guy who he loved and he was not going to let him go. Ron stared
at him for a while still with the scared look on his eyes and intensifying
with Harry's silence and expressionless face. Ron really thought that he
had messed it up but deep down inside him, he was holding onto a hope.

	"I'm sorry Harry, it's OK if you don't feel the same way for me,
besides, I never expected you to like guys... and... me neither, I don't
know what happened to me...  Anyway, I just needed to let this out of my
chest and once and for all!"  Said Ron with his eyes staring to water with
incoming tears. "But please, the only thing I'm asking you right now is not
to hate me for this, I just can't help it!" Said Ron breaking into tears.
But this whole time he had been looking at Harry directly to his eyes.
Harry's heart melted when he saw Ron cry, and by the time he was being such
an idiot, he hadn't said a thing at all to calm his best friend.

	"Harry... I...!" Ron was saying when he was cut off by Harry's
index finger pressed against his lips. Then, with the other hand, he
whipped the tears that where running down Ron's cheeks. Ron couldn't help
but stare at Harry's beautiful green eyes.  Harry just gave him a sweet
smile and then spoke "Ron, I'd never be able to hate you, besides, why
would I hate you? I just can't help it being amazed by all this!" said
Harry still touching Ron's face with his own hands. "I've been dreaming of
this moment nearly ever since I came back from Hogwarts for the
summer. I... I couldn't wait for the moment to have you in front of me and
be able to hug you with all my might. Ron... I... I love you too!"  Said
Harry now his turn to have tears forming in his beautiful green eyes. Ron
just stared at him with pure joy growing in his heart and a smile forming
on his lips. Suddenly they just hugged each other feeling happy of having
realized that their feelings were returned. After a while they pulled apart
from the hug and stared into each other's eyes once again.  This time,
knowing that it was right, Harry and Ron leaned in for their first kiss. It
was sweet and gentle, their lips met and an awesome sensation ran through
their bodies.  Harry parted his lips to allow Ron invade it. Their tongues
met and started to play around with each other, their eyes closed and
enjoying the sensation of loving each other. Harry's tears were freely
flowing down. His happiness was extreme, he was wondering when he had ever
felt so happy in his life. Even the weight of his God father's death was
diminishing and he felt like floating in the air.

	Suddenly, the beautiful moment that he was sharing with Ron was
harshly interrupted by a soft sob. A thought hit him right then, he then
realized that Ron and him weren't the only ones in the room. By that time
Hermione had gotten back from the bathroom and was standing in the door way
looking at them. But her expression was what surprised Harry the most. She
was smiling widely with tears in her eyes and a tender expression towards
them.  Ron was shaken off of the trance when he saw Harry staring at
Hermione. He then gave a laugh at Harry's face and smiled back at Hermione.

	"I made it Hermione, he loves me too!" Said Ron smiling even wider
than Hermione. Now Harry was totally confused and was giving Ron the
'What's-going-on?' look.

	"Oh I'm so happy for you boys!" Cried Hermione as she threw herself
at them to hug them both. Harry still had the confused look on his face,
and he was also a little bit shy of the fact that Hermione had found him
and Ron kissing.

	"I really wish you the best!" Said Hermione kissing both of them on
the cheek. "Anyway Harry, Ron, we need to get going. This moment was very
nice and the most beautiful thing I've ever seen but you two can continue
when we're back to Hogwarts!" Said Hermione, closing Harry's trunk and
holding up his Firebolt. "Ron, you get Hedwig, and Harry will take the
other trunk!"  Ron did as she said but then Harry spoke "All right you
two... Does any of you care to explain me what's going on here?" He
asked. Hermione hesitated in answering his question but Ron talked first
"Yes Harry, we will tell you as soon as we're out of here. Okay?" Said Ron
and then gave him a quick kiss on the lips. Hermione giggled at Harry's
face and then they started heading out the window. Ron went down first and
then he told Hermione to start passing down Harry's stuff. First the
trunks, then the Firebolt and for the last Hedwig who seemed to be
cooperating with them in not making a single sound at all. When they were
all down, Hermione took a worn old skateboard out of some bushes. "All
right Harry, this is the Portkey, it'll takes us to Hogsmeade right away
and then we have to make our way to Hogwarts!" Said Hermione now getting
more serious than before. "Remember, once we get there, we'd be on our own
and great danger could be around us at anytime so keep your wands out as
soon as we hit the floor in Hogsmeade OK?" She finished. Ron and Harry
nodded and then the three of them got around the Portkey. Hermione counted
to three and at the same time, they all touched the old skateboard and a
few seconds after, they were in Hogsmeade, right outside Hog's Head.

	"OK this is it, wands out!" Instructed Hermione. "Here, I've got
the Marauder's Map, we just need to get through the secret passage way to
go to Hogwarts and then we're.....!"

	"I see you three managed to flee from that muggle town very
easily!" Said woman's cold voice from behind them. Harry froze at the
familiar voice and then they all turned around. It was Bellatrix Lestrange,
but she wasn't alone...

	"You see Potter, a meddlesome fool like you can't ever overcome a
Malfoy and I'm here to make you pay for what you did to me at the
Department of Mysteries!" The icy voice of Lucius Malfoy said right behind
Bellatrix.

	"I see, that Azkaban is not a secure place anymore!" Said Hermione
defiantly. "You see Miss Granger, without the Dementors, the Ministry of
Magic is no longer powerful regarding the security of such prison which I
never thought I was going to be sent to!" Said Malfoy advancing step by
step, at the same peace as Bellatrix towards Harry and his friends.

	"Well, then, I guess I'm going to have to make sure that this time
you are sent to hell along with your pathetic master and your friends!"
Snapped Harry as he pointed his wand towards the two adults and shouted
"BOUBLE-PETRIFICUS TOTALUS!!!" Lucius nor Bellatrix had the chance to
protect themselves from Harry's attack on time since it was so quick. Then
he put a spell to his stuff to levitate following them wherever they
went. The kicked off running from there as fast as they could towards
Dervish and Banges but they never would have thought that there were more
than two Death Eaters at the place.

	"IMPEDIMENTA!" Shouted one of the Death Eaters who appeared right
in front of them.  Harry however, was fast enough to protect himself and
his friends with another spell.

	"PROTEGO!" He shouted as he and his friends stopped in their tracks
facing the other two Death Eaters. I seemed that Dolohov and Macnair had
managed to escape from Azkaban too.

	"You're not going anywhere beyond here Potter!" Snapped
Macnair. Then from the back of Macnair a jet of bright light flashed
towards them hitting Hermione and sending her flying through the air a few
feet away. "HERMIONE!!!" Shouted Ron as he took off running were she
landed. "YOU BASTARD!!!" Shouted Harry, "EVERTE STATUM!!!" He shouted and a
flash of purple light came out from his wand hitting both of the Death
Eaters and sending them a few feet away too. Then he ran towards where Ron
was helping Hermione up.

	"How is she?"  Asked Harry frantically. "I'm fine Harry... WATCH
OUT!!!"  She shouted and a spell hit Harry so hard also sending him flying
through the air. He hit the floor quite hard and then he started to
remember, he had lived this very own moment before... he had been through
this and then it hit him. It was the dream he feared it would ever come
true.

	"... You can't run away kid, I've got you now!!!" Screamed a woman
"COLLOPORTUS!!!"  and then a jet of red light came out of the tip of her
wand. This jet was directed right at Harry and there was no way he could
deflect it nor evade it, he was struggling to get up from where he was but
then he heard another voice calling out his name and then he turned to his
right to see his best friend running towards him.

	"HARRY!!!" Ronald Weasely screamed as he jumped to block the curse
directed to Harry with his own body. "RON NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!" Harry
shouted but it was late now. Knowing what was going to happen, the jet of
red light hits Ron in the back and they are strongly blasted away. Harry
collides with the floor with Ron on top of him totally unconscious.

	"OH THAT'S ENOUGH... MULTIPLE-RICTUSEMPRA!!! Hermione tried to
strike back but she was easily overcome by Lucius Malfoy. He deflected her
spell on time and attacked her with a very powerful 'EXPELIARMUS' that
knocked her out immediately. To Harry's horror, he sees lights flashing
around him and then his other friend Hermione Granger hitting the floor
hard also unconscious.

	"Now Potter, is your turn now!" said Bellatrix Lestrange, the Death
Eater who murdered his God Father Sirius Black. "AVADA KEDABRA!!!" and a
jet of green light comes out of her wand.

	This time Harry reacted as fast as he could have ever done rising
his wand and shouting with all his might "PRIORI INCATATEM!!!" then a very
bright silver light shot out from his wand in the form of a very powerful
beam. It encountered Bellatrix deadly spell on the air then the greenish
light started to vanish quickly and the powerful silver beam hit
Bellatrix's wand and hand making her yell in pain. The beam destroyed her
wand and her hand was bleeding.  This however, wasn't enough for Harry, who
rose his wand again but this time pointing at Lucius Malfoy
"ALARTE-ASSANDARE!!!" Then, like if a bomb had exploded right beneath
Malfoy a huge blast made him fly very high through the air. As for the
other two who were running towards him behind him and Bellatrix. He just
made a circle around him with his wand which tip was glowing with a Red
light. The circle took form in the air around Harry and then he pointed his
wand up to the sky but he still looking at Bellatrix. "This is it you
BITCH!" He shouted at her and she looked back at him. "YOU'LL PAY FOR THIS
POTTER!!!" She yelled back. And then Harry performed this deadly spell:
"MULTIPLE-FIRAGA!!!" and three huge fire balls were shot from the red
circle surrounding Harry. One in Bellarix's direction and the others to the
Death Eaters running 'but this time away' behind him. The spell was
successful, it hit the three of them setting them on fire. But Harry didn't
seemed quite satisfied with that so he created another circle around him
but this time glowing with a yellowish light. By the time he was rising his
wand, Lucius Malfoy fell back hitting the ground hard and then with more
courage he shouted: "MULTIPLE-THUNDAGA!!!"  Four powerful rays of lightning
struck the three Death Eaters on fire and the one laying unconscious on the
floor. This left them totally motionless and unconscious on the floor and
with that, the circle disappeared and Harry put away his wand.

	Harry ran where his two friends were laying on the floor but by the
time he got there, Hermione was getting up from the floor and Ron was
groaning softly in pain.  "Are you all right?"  Asked Harry. "Oh I'm fine,
I'm just a little dizzy, that's all!" Replied Hermione picking up her wand.

	"Ron, are you OK?" Asked Harry who bent down to help him up. "OUCH,
I think I cracked a rib, Ron yelled as Harry tried to get him to sit down
at least. "Oh Ron I'm so sorry, I should have warned you that this would
happen!" Cried Harry as he hugged him gently.

	"What do you mean warn me? How could you knew about this?" Asked
Ron as he returned the hug to calm Harry down. "Well,... I had a dream... A
dream about this, what it just happened...  and I thought... I thought it
wasn't serious... That it was just me... with my stuppid nightmares but I
should have told you... nothing would have happened to you if I'd tell you
about this!"  Sobbed Harry into Ron's Shoulder.

	"It's OK Harry, we're all fine, but we better get out of here now,
we need to get to Hogwarts at once!" Said Hermione as she tried to pull him
up.

	"Yeah Harry, I'm fine, don't worry, it's just a rib, I'll be just
fine...  and... thanks for caring about me!" Said Ron as he looked into
Harry's teary eyes. He put his hands on Harry's cheeks and pulled him in
for a kiss. Harry's heart beat faster as a nice feeling of warmth and love
overtook him. Ron then, embraced him and kept him like that for a
while. Now Harry felt safe. There in Ron's arms he felt that nothing could
touch him. Hermione was just staring at them with such affliction in her
face, she really seemed moved at the sight of her two best friends there
loving each other. However, they needed to get out of there fast as they
could.  Maybe more Death Eaters were around. And as much as she hated to
break the nice moment she just had to.

	"Ron, can you get up and walk?" She asked Ron. Ron just looked up
at her and nodded.  Harry seemed to be calmed and then he got up. He
stretched his had to help Ron up which he took and with pain he got
up. "I'll help you walk!" Said Harry as he put Ron's left arm around his
neck and shoulder to walk. Hermione took Ron's wand too and they were off.

	The trip through the passage was slow and quiet. None of them made
much of a chat and Ron's breathing was hurting him more and more, it was
slowing down often and Ron seemed quite pale. Harry never led go of him and
was always there holding him not to fall. Hermione was walking ahead of
them and she was in deep thought then she spoke.

	"Harry, how did you manage to perform those spells?" She asked
him. He was surprised by her question but then he realized that he did
something he had ever done before.

	"Ummmm, I learned those spells from the book that Sirius gave me
last Christmas!"  Replied Harry. "Anyway, is the first time I ever did
them. You know, I'm not allow to use magic outside Magical Territories in
front of muggles.

	"I read about them too, they are...!" She was saying but then Harry
completed her sentence "Black Elemental Magic Level 3!" Hermione
gasped. "Good Grace, and you were able to perform them on level 3?" She
continued "You really are a powerful wizard Harry. Just don't forget to
teach us that at the D.A. meetings!" She finished and smiling at Harry.

	Harry smiled too and remembered about his status as potential
teacher of the D.A.  that stands for the Defense Association or better
known as Dumbledores Army.  This was a group created by Harry and Hermione
last year at Hogwarts during Umbrige's Inquisitorial Saga. Many of their
closest friends became part of it in support. There they were preparing
themselves in the area of The Defense Against the Dark Arts just in the
remote case that they ever had to face Voldemort personally. And they did,
a few months ago, Harry, Hermione, Ron, Ginny (Ron's younger sister), Luna
LoveGood (a Hufflepuff), and Neville Longbottom faced a large number of
Death Eaters at the Department of Mysteries in The Ministry of Magic. They
actually did pretty good, they really fought like heroes proving that Harry
had done a great job teaching them.

	They kept on walking, they were almost there. Ron however, was
still having trouble breathing. Harry and Hermione hurried on their pace so
that they could get there faster. Hermione was really worried about Ron but
she rather look normal so that we she doesn't worries Harry more than what
he was. Finally they could see the statue of the weird looking witch which
was the entrance to the secret passage from Hogwarts to Hogsmead. Hermione
touched the statue with the tip of her wand and then it moved aside. As
soon as they were in the corridor, Hermione went looking for help. Harry
had to sit down in the stairs with Ron since he couldn't walk anymore due
to the pain and his hard time breathing. It broke Harry's heart to see Ron
like that, he kept on beating himself up for having let that happen to
Ron. It should be him with the pain in the ribs and not him, not Ron.

	"Ron I'm so sorry!" Said Harry as he hugged Ron again. "I love
you!" He said as he closed his eyes and rested his head on Ron's shoulder.

	"It's... It's not your fault Harry, besides, I rather had taken the
curse and be like this now than to see you hurting!" Said Ron with a weak
smile on his lips.  "And you know I did it because I love you too!" He
finished. But he wasn't looking good at all, he was drenched in cold sweat
and was very pale. His breathing rate fast but troubled and full of pain.

	After a few minutes passed, Hermione came back with Madam Pomfrey,
Professors Dumbledore, MacGonagal, Flitwick, Sprout, Snape, and
Trelawney. Harry was surprised to see almost all his teachers there aiding
him, even Snape, who he depissed a lot. He was also shy at the fact that
they had all found him hugging Ron. Dumbledore asked Hermione to please
take Harry's stuff to the Griffyndor Tower and then that she could come
back to the hospital wing.

	"Is he going to be all right Madam Pomfrey?" Asked Professor
MacGonagal as they walked to Hospital wing with Ron.

	"Oh I do not know Minerva, the injury on his lower left side of his
rib cage seems pretty nasty, I'll see what can I do to relieve the pain!"
Replied Madam Pomfrey with a look of great concern on her face.

	"Harry tell me, what was the spell, Mr. Weasely was hit by?" Asked
professor Dumbledore calmly. "Well, I heard it was... Colloportus, the
spell you use to shut door at great distance but it seemed that it hit Ron
with great strength since it send us both flying away!" Replied Harry.

	"It wasn't a normal Colloportus if I may add Head Master!" Said
Professor Snape joining the conversation. "This Colloportus is designed
especially to inflict damage on the things that are hit by it and since
they were at a very close distance, Mr. Weasely got the full blast of it!"
He finished.

	"I see Severus, but we're going to have to wait until Madame
pomffrey tells us how is he going to be!" Said Dumbledore as they reached
the hospital wing. Madam Pomfrey went inside with Ron, Professors
MacGonagal and Sprout, and the rest stayed outside. Hermione came minutes
later and joined them in the waiting room. There sat Proffesor Dumbledore,
Snape, Flitwick, Trelawney, Harry and Hermione.

	"So, Mr. Potter, who where the Death Eaters that attacked you?"
Asked Snape. Harry raised his head to look at him and then replied: "They
were Bellatrix Lestrange, Lucius Malfoy, Macnair, and Dolohov!" He answered
flatly.

	"So I see, they managed to escape from Azkaban faster than I
thought!" Said Snape and then Dumbledore spoke: "Azkaban is no longer a
safe prision Severus, not ever since the Dementors stopped taking orders
from the Ministry!" Then, a loud yell came from the hospital wing, it was
Ron who was in so much pain. Harry winced at that and stood up quickly to
go and see what was going on and then Macgonagal came out from the door.

	"Professor Dumbledore, it seems that we need to take Mr. Weasely to
St.  Mungos Hospital immediately, he has an internal bleeding and Madam
Pomfrey cannot do anything to help him here!"  Said MacGonagal
seriously. Now Harry was at the edge of tears, Hermione was the whole time
right next to him for support. Only she could understand what he was
feeling right now and there was no way she was going to leave him alone.

To Be Continued...

Next Chapeter will be out in three weeks or so since tomorrow I'm leaving
