"You all right?" Ron asked, approaching Harry with Cayden and Hermione behind him.

"Voldemort! He's got Sirius! In the Department of Mysteries!" Harry exclaimed.

Ron looks pale.

"How do you know?" Hermione asked.

"I just saw it." Harry answered, looking out at the Hogwarts grounds, then turned back to them. "How're we going to get there?"

"To the Department of Mysteries?" Ron asked, looking at Cayden who is looking down at the ground with a small frown, making him concerned but it quickly goes away.

"We've got to do something!" Harry exclaimed.

Ron and Hermione exchange looks.

"How'd Voldemort get into the Ministry of Magic without being seen? I mean, he is the most wanted wizard in the world..." Hermione said.

"Yeah. He can't just waltz into the Ministry of Magic!" Ron said.

"It just seems so unlikely, Harry!" Hermione said.

Harry grabs her robes and glares at him. "I won't let Sirius die!"

Just then, Ginny, Luna, Fred, George, Cedric and Viktor round the corner.

"We heard Harry yelling. What's up?" Ginny questioned.

"Voldemort's broken into the Department of Mysteries. He's got Sirius there!" Harry said. "He could already have the weapon!"

"Think, Harry! Voldemort knows you! He knows you'd rush off to save Sirius." Cayden said, speaking for the first time.

"There isn't anyone else, Cayden!" Harry exclaimed. "Everyone from the Order is gone!"

"Anything we can do to help?" Ginny asked, glancing at Cayden who is slowly turning pale.

"No, there isn't!" Harry exclaimed, instantly regretting it when hurt crosses Ginny's face.

"Yes, they can, Harry." Hermione said.

"How?" Harry asked.

"Before we do anything, we need to establish that Sirius really isn't at Headquarters. Which means we'll need to break into Umbridge's office." Hermione said, smiling, and glanced at Fred and George. "For that, we'll need a really good distraction."

Fred and George grin.

"Right you are, Hermione. Think we can whip something up, George?" Fred asked, turning to George.

"Might be able to." George said, nodding.

"Just give us a few seconds." Fred said, turning to Hermione.

"Mind you, it's got to be really good!" Hermione said.

"Not to worry, Hermione. We've got something that will outdue everything else we've done here combined." George said, grinning.

"It's been too quiet around here anyway." Fred said, grinning.

"Time we did some real damage to this place." George said.

They lean close to each other and begin whispering together in excited voices.

"We'll also need to keep everyone away from her office." Hermione said.

Ginny brightens. "We can do that! Me and Luna'll guard the hallway."

Harry smiles at them.

"We'll probably only manage five minutes or so." Hermione said.

"That's all we'll need." Harry said.

Fred and George straighten.

"Right. You've got ten minutes to get to Umbridge's office. And whatever you do, stay away from the Astronomy Tower for the next couple of hours." Fred said.
