As the group raced through the halls of Hogwarts, Hermione asked, "Harry, just where are we going?"
"Dumbledore's office!" Harry told her. "He'll know what to do!"
At this, no one argued. Dumbledore was, after all, one of the best wizards of their time.

When they finally made it to the entrance of Dumbledore's office, Harry said, "Lemon Drops!"
At these words, the giant griffon statue that guarded the entrance began to spin upwards, revealing a stone, spiral staircase that led up to said office.
The group then looked at each other and nodded before heading up the stairs.

"Professor!" Harry exclaimed as they all ran into the medium-sized, circular room.
Dumbledore, who had been looking down at the oncoming threat from the window, turned to see the Gryffindors standing in his office, visibly out of breath.
"What are you all doing in here?" He asked them. "I told all students to stay in their common rooms."
"We want to fight, sir!" Harry told him proudly.
"No, Harry." Dumbledore said, turning back to the window. "You and your friends should stay with your fellow Gryffindors. This isn't your fight, after all."
"Professor Dumbledore, sir," Harry pointed out. "With all due respect, I'm the Boy Who Lived. Voldemort is here because of me. Therefore, sir, this is my fight."
"And, as his lover," Draco added. "I will fight with him until the end of time."
"And the rest of us aren't going to let Harry battle You-Know-Who alone." Ron said boldly.
"Very well..." Dumbledore relented. "If I can't stop you from fighting, I can wish you luck in the battle. I also have a task for you all to do."
"What is it, professor?" Harry asked.
"Tell the other houses to prepare for war." He said. "If a group of people from one house fight, then all the houses must stand and fight as one."
"Of course, professor." Harry agrees.
He then turned to his friends. "Blaise, you and Ron warn Hufflepuff. Hermione, you and Pansy tell Ravenclaw. Draco and I will inform Slytherin. We'll meet you all back at Gryffindor Tower."
"Right!" The group agreed before running off to warn the other houses.
