Rose Lily (H.P. FanFic) 3

Chapter Nine

O.W.L.S. testing came in progress. We all sat silently in the great hall in individual desks. Umbridge was staring down at us from her 'throne'. We were currently through our half way through our charms exam. 

When there was a 'Boom' in the distance causing everyone to stop and look towards the doors. Then it happened again, 'BOOM'. Louder and closer than before. Umbridge begins to walk down the aisles towards the doors. 

She opens them looks around and a spark ball of light flies in front of her, then zooms into the great hall and explodes into small fireworks, causing me and many others to smile. Umbridge continues to look around for who had done this, but I had a suspicion the answer was coming. 

Then zooming over her was Fred and George on brooms, flying into the room, making all our test papers fly up into the air and they throw magic fireworks into the sky and they explode filling the room with different color sparks. Some big others small to explode in some faces. Everyone was up and out of their seats now, the test long forgotten as the twins flew around the room.

Filch and Umbridge had re-entered the room, not sure of how to handle this situation. This was the first time she looked helpless, and I was loving it. The twins then threw a different type of firework into the air, and a larger than others firework exploded in different shades of red before forming a dragon. It swooped down and began to chase Umbridge down through the great hall. 

She had gotten to the entrance when the dragon 'ate' her exploding all through the corridor around her. Glass could be heard breaking meaning it was hitting her 'decrees' that hung on the walls. The explosions stopped and then we could hear the frames fall off the walls around her as the smoke was settling. Then the twins flew over her, out of the castle and into the courtyard.

We were all quick to follow, rushing past Umbridge to go outside seeing the twins still throwing fireworks as the flew higher. Many other students who weren't testing but in classes also came out along with teachers to see what was happening only to join in with the cheering. The twins had found a way to make Hogwarts happy and full of fun again, even if just for a moment. And the last big firework they threw created a huge 'W' in the sky, as they flew away.

Then I begin to feel light headed. Images appears in my head, to fast for me to comprehend them. Crystal balls. Someone shouting in pain. I close my eyes and bring a hand to my head. I feel someone grab me, making me open my eyes to see Hermione leading me through the crowd, to Harry who had fallen.

When we approach him, he looks panic'd. "Sirius" was all he says to us. We were quick to help him up and rush back into the castle, grabbing Ron along with us. 

"Harry, are you sure?" Hermione questions as we rush up moving stairs, following behind Harry. 

"I saw it--just like before with Mr. Weasley! It's the same door I've been dreaming about for months, only I couldn't remember where I'd seen it before!" Harry explains to us, as we move to another staircase. "Sirius said that Voldemort was after something, something he didn't have last time, and it's in the department of mysteries." he explains quickly, turning up another staircase.

"Harry, please, just listen." Hermione stops him as the stairs move, "What if Voldemort meant for you to see this? What if he's only hurting Sirius because he's trying to get to you?" she tells him. 

"What if he is? I'm supposed to just let him die?!" Harry questions staring at Hermione desperately, "Hermione--he's some of the only family Rose and I've got left." he tells her.

"What do we do?" Ron asks, and Harry was back to rushing up the stair once they stopped moving. We quickly follow behind.

"The portkey in Dumbledore's office is locked up...we'll have to use the Floo Network." Harry explains to us.
