The new arrivals turned out to be a group that fought against Voldemort secretly; they called themselves The Order of The Pheonix. It was a group of skilled witches and wizards that was founded by Albus DUmbledore himself.
Lyra was shocked when she seen some of her school mates in the Order. That included Marlene McKinnon, Mary MacDonald (they still depsised eachother), Alice Smith (Now Alice Longbottom), Frank Longbottom and many others.
Dumbledore seemed very impressed with the courage the Marauders, Nick and Lily held when they fought the Death Eaters, even when outnumbered; so he offered them a place in the Order.
James and Sirius and Lyra had said yes emmidiatly. But Nick and Peter were slightly skepticle, neither wanted to work together. Nick didn't know why he despised Peter, but he did.
But that was years ago. Now things had gotten far worse. James and Lily were now in trouble. They had to go into hiding because VOldemort was after their only son, Harry. Harry was the spitting image of his father, but he had Lily's startling green eyes.
Right now James and Lily were on their way to Sirius' house, to go ask if he could be their Secret Keeper. Lily had insisted that Lyra should do it, that she had grown responisble, but James said that if Sirius found out he would kill them both for making his sister do something so dangerous. Lily reluctantly agreed.
Lyra and Nick had a son too. His name was Will and he looked exactly like his father. He had the curly brown hair and the cute brown eyes, the thin face and the small ears; but there was something about him - maybe the stubborn set of his jaw or the way he looked at people that reminded Nickso much of Lyra.
They also had a daughter, who was at least three weeks old. Nick named her Lynx, because he thought Lyra's middle name was beautiful. Lynx looked exactly like her mother but with her father's eyes. She had soft black hair and long eyelashes but her facial features were covered with a thick layer of babyfat.
Will loved his baby sister, but he couldn't be around her because he didn't know how to handle her properly. Like when he wanted to pet her head he ended up smacking her face; causing her to wail loudly.
James and Lily had just apparated at Sirius' doorstep and knocked. James heard Sirius yell from the other side; "What's the password?"
"Mimblewimble," James said, Lily rolled her eyes.
"You may enter!" Sirius opened the door dramaticaly and waved the inside. "What brings you two lovebirds here? Where's Harry?"
"He's at Marlene's," Lily said, looking serious. "Sirius. . . we need to ask you to do something for us."
As James told Sirius if he could be Secret keeper, Sirius was already planning a devious trick on Voldemort.
"So will you do it?" Lily asked SIrius expactently.
Sirius looked thoughtful, then shook his head. "No."
James blinked and Lily looked flabberghasted, though they tried to hide their shock and betrayal.
"Don't you think it would be a bit obvious if I was your Secret Keeper?" Sirius went on, ignoring their looks. "We need someone less predictable. . . someone else in the Order."
"But there is a spy in the Order," Lily said, "What if he or she leeks out where James and I are hidding Harry?"
"You can choose Wormtail," Sirius said. "He would never betray you - he would be too scared to stay in VOldemorts presence and too scared to feel our raft if he betrays you."
James looked pleased. "You're right. Wormtail is the perfect choice."
"We can't tell anyone, though," Sirius said. "Or it could leak out to the spy. Not even Dumbledore."
James looked startled at this. "Why not Dumbledore? He's not the spy."
"Dumbledore may not be the spy, but he's too trusting," Sirius said. "I bet he would even let Snape join the Order if he put on a good act."
"So. .. . Wormtail as our Secret Keeper?" Lily said.
"Yes," Both James and Sirius nodded.
