Apollo and I land in the fireplace in the living room of my family's home. We've been staying at Draco's for the past two weeks. I step out of the fireplace and drop my bag on the floor. Mum and Dad are sitting there with Snape, Remus Lupin, Sirius Black, Mad-Eye Moody, a woman with pink hair, a man and woman who if I had to guess from the red hair are related to the Weasleys, and two other men I don't know.
"What's going on?" I question.
Apollo points to Sirius Black. "Isn't he a murderer?"
Sirius smiles slightly at the bluntness.
Mum stands up. "Why don't you two come with me?"
Apollo and I follow Mum out of the room and into the kitchen.
"Why are all those people in our house?" I question.
"Why is a murderer in your living room?" Apollo questions.
"Sirius Black is not a murderer," Mum states. "And those people are the Order of the Phoenix."
"The who?" I question.
"The Order of the Phoenix. It's a group that Dumbledore put together during the first wizarding war," Mum tells me.
"What does that have to do with you?" I ask.
"Your father and I are a part of it," Mum tells me.
"You fought against You-Know-Who?" Apollo asks. Mum nods her head. "So why is the band getting back together?"
"Because You-Know-Who is back. There are dark times ahead of us," Mum states.
"Everyone thinks Harry Potter is lying," I tell her.
Mum shakes her head. "He's not. I can assure you of that. You-Know-Who is back and the Order is tasked with protecting Harry Potter and hopefully ending You-Know-Who."
"How did you even get involved with this?" I question.
"Your father was friends with James Potter, Sirius Black, and Remus Lupin during his time at Hogwarts," Mum tells me.
I look at her surprised. "You mean to tell me that Dad was friends with Harry Potter's parents?"
Mum nods. "Very close friends."
"Why am I just now learning about this?" I question.
"The death of the Potter's hit your dad hard. Then when Sirius was thrown into Azkaban it just made things worse. He didn't want to relieve the painful memories," Mum tells me. I nod my head. "Why don't you go upstairs and see your brothers and sisters and the Weasley kids and Hermione Granger."
"They're staying here?" I ask in disbelief.
"It's only for another week. Then the Order is moving to a more permanent residence," Mum tells me.
Apollo and I walk out of the kitchen. I look at him as we start up the stairs.
"You can't tell anyone about this," I state. "No one in Slytherin will talk to me if they know that my parents are fighting against You-Know-Who."
Apollo nods his head. "You know I don't believe in all that pureblood crap and I surely don't believe that the world will be any better with You-Know-Who in it."
I smile slightly. "Thank you." I wrap my arm around Apollo. "Now let's go annoy my siblings."
I fling open the door to one of the many living rooms in our house.
"Your favorite sister is back," I tease.
Apollo smiles. "And she brought your favorite Apollo."
