Hogwarts: The Secret Society - BOOK 5 (A Harry Potter Fanfic)

1: The Order of the Phoenix

'MUDBLOODS! BLOOD TRAITORS! HALF-BLOODS ALIKE! SCUM OF THE EARTH, DEFOULING THE HOUSE OF BLACK!' yelled Mrs Black from her painting,  'STAINS OF DISHONOUR, FILFTHY HALF-BREEDS, BLOOD TRAITORS, CHILDREN OF FILFTH!'

God, my grandmother was a pain. She was dead, of course, but that didn't stop her. She had a portrait next to the door of Grimmauld Place. If you made the slightest noise and woke her up, she would start screaming.

I rushed down the stairs and closed the curtains on her portrait. You might think why do we not just take the painting down? Permanent Sticking Charm.

'FREAK!' she screamed at me before I managed to silence her. I clenched my fists tightly, I shouldn't let her get to me. What did she know?

Twelve Grimmauld Place was the headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix. The Order was a group of adults who had helped defeat Voldemort first time round. It seemed they had to start up again, with Voldemort being back. No children were allowed to join, obviously, but that didn't stop me.

I managed to persuade them that I could be of help. I was the Alpha of Werewolves after all. After many weeks, they finally gave in. Of course, Hermione, Ron, Ginny, Fred and George were fuming. They wanted to join as well, but Mrs Weasley had decided, even though Hermione wasn't her child, that she was going to turn overprotective mother on them and went ballistic. That shut them up and they were quite annoyed at me for a short time.

'Greyback has created an army... I tried to get information from them, but they didn't trust me!' said Remus at the next Order meeting. He had been underground trying to get information about an army of werewolves, trying to get them to join our cause instead.

Then it hit me. I could get the information! They would have to tell me. I was their alpha.

'I could try,' I said, preparing myself for the outburst. I knew it wouldn't go down well.

'NO!'

'No way!'

'You could be seriously injured!'

'It's too dangerous!'

'We won't let you!'

'I would be fine,' I argued, 'I'm the alpha! They wouldn't dare hurt me.'

That was a lie and Remus knew it. If they wanted to ignore my orders, they could use their willpower to resist. We both knew Greyback would resist and others would probably try to follow his lead. I knew Remhs would tell them so I gave him a warning glance. Not that of a human, one that showed my wolf self. He sighed and kept his mouth shut. Being alpha certainly had its perks, Remus didn't want to go through the effort of trying to go against my wishes.

'Moony, is this true?' asked Sirius.

'Yes. They wouldn't hurt her,' lied Remus but he shot me a glance that said 'If you get hurt, he'll kill me!'

'Molly, we will discuss this whilst you go... do something!' said Mad-Eye Moody, his voice gruff. Everyone looked solemn, they didn't quite know what to do when they knew what I said was true.

I nodded and left the room to find Ron, Hermione, Ginny and the twins staring at me in shock.

'You... You can't be serious!' said Fred.

'About what?' I asked casually. How had they heard?

'Extendable Ears,' explained George, 'That's how we know. Now answer the question.'

'Yes, I am being serious! We need this information and I can make the army switch sides!' I said.

'They would kill you!' said Hermione, aghast.
