"It's just like Mr. Ashborn." Harry said as he rushed up the moving staircase towards the Gryffindor Common Room. Hermione, Ron, and Aria tried to keep up behind him, "I saw him. Aria, you remember me telling you about the door I've been dreaming about? I couldn't remember where I'd seen it before. Sirius said Voldemort was after something. Something he didn't have last time, in the Department of Mysteries."

"Harry, please, just listen!" Hermione called after him.

"No Hermione!" Harry called back, still focusing on his steps rather than his friends, "I've got to save him!"

"You?" Ron asked but only Aria heard him.

"But what if Voldemort wanted you to see this?" Hermione asked, her voice sounding worried, "What if he's only hurting Sirius because he's trying to get to you?"

"What if he is?" Harry asked, finally stopping and looking at them, "I'm supposed to just let him die? Hermione, he's the only family I've got."

"What do we do?" Aria sighed.

"We'll have to use the Floo Network." Harry replied.

"Umbridge has the chimneys under surveillance." Hermione said.

"Not all of them." said Aria, remembering the fireplace in Umbridge's office. She had seen flew powder next to it when Umbridge was interrogating her.

"Is everything alright?" said a voice from behind them. The four of them turned to see Ginny and Luna not far behind her, "I saw you all rushing away."

"I don't have time." Harry said, turning to leave.

"Hello everyone." Luna said dreamily, and when no one followed him, Harry waited, annoyed, "Ginny, you forgot your bag." Luna handed Ginny her bag and Ginny gave the rest the rest of them an apologetic look.

"Maybe they could help?" Ron suggested much to Harry's surprise.

"Help with what?" Luna asked.

"Harry needs to get into Umbridge's office." Ron explained and Harry sighed irritably.
