Harry had met you after every detention after that night. He would make sure you were okay, and walk you to your common room.

School was almost over, and you couldn't wait. No more stupid Umbridge.

One day, Harry met you after detention, like usual. But he looked nervous.

"What's wrong?" You ask him, taking the handkerchief he handed you.

"Voldemort. He has Sirius." He said anxiously. Your eyes widen.

"How do you know that?" You ask.

"I guess I never told you. I can see what Voldemort is doing in my dreams. That's how I knew about Mr. Weasley." He said, nervously playing with his hands.

"Woah. So what are you going to do?" You ask him. He sighs.

"I'm going to the ministry. I have to find him." He says determinedly. You gasp.

"If you are going to face Voldemort, I'm coming with you." You demand. Harry stops walking.

"No way. No one is going to sacrifice anything for me." He finalizes. You don't listen.

"You cannot face him and his army of death eaters alone. Are you insane Potter?" You groan. He grabs your chin suddenly and makes you look at him closely. You try not to blush. This was a serious matter.

"Promise me you will stay here." He says sternly. You stare into his eyes for a moment, then shake your head stubbornly.

"I won't let you go alone. Goodnight!" You run off before he can argue more. You hear him call for you, but you ignore him.

The next morning, you told Ron and Hermione about Harry's stupid plan. They agreed they would get a group to help.

On one of the last days of school, you noticed Harry quietly slip out the door between classes.

"Hermione! He's leaving!" You shriek. She nods and runs to go get Ron. You chase after Harry.

"Harry! I told you I'm coming with you!" You call, catching up to him.

"No! I can't let you get hurt." He says sadly.

You're about to argue more, but there in front of you appeared Ron, Hermione, Ginny, Neville, and Luna.

"We're coming too." Hermione says. Harry doesn't fight long.

"Fine. How are we going to get there?" He asks. Luna smiles dreamily.

"The Thestrals!" She says. You look where she's pointing, but you don't see anything.

"What?" You ask. Harry smiles a bit. He takes your hand, then grabs your waist, and to your surprise, lifts you onto an invisible horse. He gets on in front of you, and you wrap your arms around his waist, scared for your life.

"Merlin's Beard! Harry, what is going on?" You panic.

"It's fine. It's a thestral. They pull the carriages, but you can only see them if you've seen someone die." He says. You look at him, confused.

"I watched my mother and house elf die on a muggle tape. How can I not see them?" You ask. He shrugs.

"Maybe you have to see it in real life." He suggests. Then the thestral takes off, and you hold onto Harry for dear life.

Soon you were all at the ministry. Harry led you all to the department of mysteries. Then you were all exploring the room filled with prophesies.

"Woah." You breathe. Harry takes hold of your hand as you look at the room in awe.
