The Chosen One

Chapter Forty: Order of the Phoenix

Genesis’s P.O.V
It was finally the day dad and I were going to the Headquarters for the Order of the Phoenix and by the time we got there, the Weasley’s were just getting there as well along with a few others before hearing Sirius talking about how they should get Harry and they all decided on having a few people get him before dad spoke up about it, “perhapes Genesis should go with them as well. Both her and Potter have gotten rather close in the past year.” Dad mentioned to him and everyone just looked at me, “what?” I asked them before Sirius spoke up, “fine. Although I do see what you mean, she did get nervous and a little red when you mentioned him.” he said, “do we have to talk about this?” I asked them as I looked from Sirius to dad and the both of them just shrugged, “it’s settled then, Genesis is coming with us. We should be heading out now then.” Moody said to them before I followed them out, “I heard what happened about you and Barty, dad said he used Polyjuice Potion when the Tournament happened. Good to see that you’re alright.” I said to him, “just be glad he’s been sent back to Azkaban.” he said before we made it outside before our brooms appeared before us, “now we all stick together alright. No one should split from the group no matter what.” Moody said to us and we all agreed before we managed to fly away and make our way to Harry’s place. By the time we had gotten there, all of the lights were off and saw that no one was home before we managed to make our way inside the house and eventually found Harry’s room before Nymphadora went to unlock the door, “very clean these Muggles.” she said to us, “Tonks for god sake” Moody said before she shown her light in the room before seeing Harry standing there ready to attack, “can’t say I blame you for getting ready to kill someone.” I said to him with a small smile on my face, “Professor Moody. Genesis. What are you doing here?” he said to us, “what does it look like, unless you thought we came to have a party.” I said to him, “rescuing you of course.” Moody said to him before we all walked out of the house, “where are we going? The letter said that I’ve been expelled from Hogwarts.” Harry said to them, “you haven’t been. Not yet. Kingsley, you take point.” Moody said, “but the letter said-” Harry began to say before Kingsley spoke up, cutting him off, “Dumbledore has persuaded the Minister to suspend your expulsion pending a formal hearing.” he said to Harry, “you’re bloody joking. A hearing for using underaged Magic?” I questioned and Kingsley just nodded, “a hearing?” Harry questioned, “don’t worry Harry, we’ll explain everything when we get back to Headquarters.” Nymphadora said to him, “not here Nymphadora.” Moody said to her, “don’t call me Nymphadora.” she said as her hair changed color, “why not, I like the name actually. I think it suits you.” I told her as her hair went back to normal, “thanks. I like you, I’m surprised you’re not like your father actually.” she said to me, “I get that a lot.” I said to her before Moody spoke up after our brooms appeared, “stay in formation everyone. Don’t break ranks if one of us is killed.” he said to us before we flew off 

By the time we made it back to Headquarters and after waiting for the garbage truck to drive by, all of us walked up to the complex before Moody tapped his walking stick against the ground a few times before another apartment appeared after the complex moved to reveal it, “in you go son.” Moody said to him and eventually, he made his way inside and I went with him and as we made our way through the Hall, Moody and the others abruptly walked passed us and went into another room before seeing the others talking before they noticed us looking and I looked to see Harry smiling before seeing Mrs. Weasley appeared in the doorway, “Harry, Genesis.” she said before walking out of the room as she closed the door, “Mrs. Weasley.” Harry said, “Heavens you’re alright.” she said as she hugged him and did the same with me, “bit peaky. But I’m afraid dinner will have to wait until after the meeting’s finished.” she said to him and he tried to say something before she cut him off, “no time to explain. Straight upstairs, first door on the left but just follow Genesis.” she said to him before we started making our way upstairs, “how have you been doing besides what happened with the whole Dementor thing?” I asked him, “still having those dreams except this time it’s about what happened to Cedric.” he said to me before seeing Sirius’s House Elf as he muttered to himself before noticing us as we continued to make our way up the stairs before we eventually made it to one of the rooms before Hermione quickly hugged him, “are you alright? We overheard them talking about the Dementor Attack, you must tell us everything.” she said to him, “should be lucky they didn’t kill him considering the amount of times they’ve attacked him.” I said to her, “yeah, let the man breathe Hermione.” Ron told her, “and there’s a Hearing at the Ministry, It’s just outrageous. I’ve looked it up, they simply can’t expel you.” Hermione said to him, “she does have a point, it’s rather odd that they’re holding a hearing just for underaged magic because of the bloody Dementor’s.” I said to them as I laid on the bed, leaning against the headboard, “yeah, there’s a lot of that going around at the moment. So what is this place?” Harry said as he walked through the room, “it’s Headquarters.” Ron said to him, “for the Order of the Phoenix. It’s a secret society, Dumbledore founded it back when they first fought You-Know-Who.” Hermione told him, “you couldn’t put any of this in a letter I suppose. The only person who wrote to me was Genesis, but then again, she didn’t say anything about it either. I’ve gone all summer without a scrap of news.” he told them, “I only just found out about this myself the other day. But then again, dad didn’t tell me much either, just that there was a meeting here and and little about you and that was about it” I told him, “Besides for Genesis, we wanted to write mate, really we did, only-” Ron said to him before Harry spoke up, “only what?” he asked them, “only Dumbledore made us swear not to tell you anything.” Hermione told him, “wait what? Why did he say that?” I asked them before sitting up on the side of the bed, “Dumbledore said that? But why would he want to keep me in the dark? Maybe I could help. After all, I'm the one who saw Voldemort return. I’m the one who fought him. I'm the one who saw Cedric Diggory get killed.” Harry said to them and just as I grabbed his hand, Fred and George appeared behind us causing the both of us to jump, “thought we heard your dulcet tone.” one of them said to him, “don’t bottle it up though mate. Let it out” the other said as the both of them sat on the bed, “anyway, if you’re all done shouting.” one started, “do you want to hear something a little more interesting?” the other continued before one of them held up something with an ear on either end of the string before we went out into the hall and began to overhear what everyone else in the kitchen were talking about before Hermione’s cat decided to eat the other end of it before the string was brought back up before the twins put it away for the time being.

When dinner finally came around, Mrs. Weasley called everyone down to eat and both Harry and I came down together before we eventually stood in front of Mrs. Weasley while she shouted at Fred and George for something they did before she noticed Harry, “you hungry Harry?” she asked him, “are you sure you’re alright Harry? You gave us quite a turn.” Mr. Weasley asked him before hearing Sirius from behind them, “Harry Potter” he said before Mr. and Mrs. Weasley moved out of the way before Harry went over and hugged Sirius before we all had gone into the kitchen and sat down, “this is very, very peculiar. It seems that your hearing at the Ministry is to be before the entire Wizardingmont.” Mr. Weasley told Harry, “I don’t understand, what does the Ministry Magic have against me?” Harry asked them, “show him, he’ll find out soon enough.” Moody said to them before Kingsley passed the Daily Prophet to Harry, “bloody hell, they’ll do anything to hide the bloody truth.” I said to them as I read what it said, “now he’s been attacking Dumbledore as well.” Sirius said to us, “no surprise there.” I whispered but loud enough for everyone to hear, “Fudge is using all his power, including his influence at the Daily Prophet to smear anyone who thinks the Dark Lord has returned.” Sirius continued, “why?” Harry asked, “the Minister thinks Dumbledore is after his job.” Remus said to him, “but that’s insane. No one in their own mind would believe that Dumbledore-” Harry began to say before Remus cut him off, “that’s exactly the point, Fudge isn’t in his right mind. It’s been twisted and warped by fear. Now fear makes people do terrible things, Harry. The last time Voldemort gained power, he almost destroyed everything we hold most dear. Now that he’s returned, I’m afraid the Minister will do almost anything to avoid facing the terrifying truth.” Remus said to him, “if he keeps it up, people might start questioning everything.” I mentioned to them before Sirius spoke up, “we think Voldemort wants to build up his army again. 14 years ago, he had huge numbers at his command, not just Witches and Wizards but all manner of Dark Creatures. We’ve been recruiting heavily and we’ve been attempting to do the same. But gathering followers isn’t the only thing he’s interested in.” Sirius said before Moody cleared his throat before Sirius continued, “we believe Voldemort may be after something, something he didn’t have last time.” he said, “you mean like a weapon?” Harry asked and before Sirius could say anything else, Mrs. Weasley spoke up, “no, that’s enough He’s just a boy. You say much more you might as well induct him into the Order straight away.” she said to Sirius, “good, I want to join. If Voldemort’s raising an army then I want to fight.” Harry said to them, “I think you’re on your own Mrs. Weasley.” I said to her, causing her to let out a sigh before she continued with dinner and we all decided to switch the topic and talked about something else the entire time.

When Dinner was over, I noticed Harry walk off on his own and I went over to him to see how he was doing, “what’s wrong?” I asked him before we ended up in another room, “to be honest, I don’t know. I mean I’m glad I eventually got to know some of what’s going on but at the same time, I don’t know what to do with it all.” he said to me, “you know you don’t have to go through all of it alone. Maybe Dumbledore didn’t tell you everything because he thought he was protecting you somehow.” I told him and he nodded a little before looking at me, “remember what I told you last year, about my feelings?” he asked me and I nodded, “I meant all of it. Every word.” he said to me and I smiled a little and he did the same, “so did I.” I told him before he suddenly kissed me before hearing someone and saw that it was Sirius, “did I interrupt something?” he questioned and my face went red before we eventually left with him and did our own thing for the rest of the night as we would be spending the night here since Harry had his Hearing the next morning at the Ministry.
