"Ivy!" Mrs. Weasly called, "could you go tell Sirius that lunch is ready!?" Ivy walked into the drawing room. This room held the black family tree painted on the walls, Ivy however, had not been recorded. "Hello Ivy" Sirius smiled. "I found a box with a few things that belonged to your dad. It's sitting next to his bedroom door. Your welcome to go through it." He said " Oh, well thank you. Mrs. Weasly said lunch is ready." She said awkwardly, As she walked out of the office.
After lunch she went upstairs to her dad's room. The door was locked and no one wanted to open it. She looked in the box. There was an old slytherin sweatshirt, a prefect badge, and... a broomstick? She picked it up. It was an old bluebottle, but it was clean and in great shape. Had this really belonged to her dad?
"Oh," said Sirius's voice behind her. "You found your dad's old broomstick." He remarked, looking over Ivy's shoulder. "He made a few adjustments. Put spells on it and everything. He was a slytherin seeker you know." He said, smiling before walking off.
"A bluebottle? That broom is rubbish, I doubt it even works" Ron said. It was a week later and Ivy had looked it over. "Sirius said that my dad took really good care of it, and made ajustments, I'm sure it works." Ivy shot back. Just then, Harry opened the door.
"Harry!" Hermione said, swinging her arms around his neck. "Hello" he said. He looked over at Ivy "hey" she said. She felt awkward when talking to harry. She always felt that they were so alike, yet so different."I got a broom" she said showing him the bluebottle. Harry had a firebolt, a gift from Sirius in his third year. Ivy didn't mind. "My dad's broom," she explained "He made all sorts of adjustments, ron says the broom is probably rubbish, but who knows it may be as good as a firebolt"
"So what is this place?" Harry asked. "Headquarters for the Order of the Phoenix." Hermione replied.
"It's an anti-Voldemort group founded by Dumbledore the first time he rose to power." Ivy explained. Harry sat down on the bed that had been set aside for him. "Great, so you all are fighting back, what's going on? Where is he now? What are we doing to stop him?"Ivy, Ron, and Hermione gave each other a look and Ivy continued cautiously. "Well... We aren't allowed into the meetings." Harry looked confused. "Why not?"
"Harry..." Hermione began, "We aren't allowed to know anything. The order members occasionally say things around us, but without context before that, we don't know what they mean by what they say."
"Well maybe they'll tell us because I'm here." Harry insisted. "You reckon they'll actually tell you mate?" Ron said uneasily. "Of course, I'm the one who saw Voldemort return, I saw Cedric Diggory get killed, I should know what's going on!" He was shouting now, and Ivy desperately wanted the current meeting to be over so she wasn't stuck with Harry.
"Hello Harry." Said Fred, apparating into the room, George following. "We thought we heard your bellows." Harry got up away from them and paced around the room.
"But we get that you want information, so how about we break into these." George said, pulling one of the ears out. Ginny then opened the door and peaked in. "Those ears won't work, there's a spell on the door."
"How do you know?"
"Tonks showed me a trick, if something bounces off the door, than there's a spell." Ivy looked over glumly."Ivy don't you have those weird mind powers, can you break through the spell?" Ron asked. Harry looked confused and Ivy remembered that he didn't know about her abilities. "I don't think it's that simple Ron, I'm still practicing and I don't want to practice it with that spell because if I mess up and Snape detects me we're in trouble."
"Snape's here?" Harry asked. "Yes, don't worry, he never stays behind for dinner so we won't have to watch the ugliness that is Sirius and Snape in one room." He chuckled. "So what's this power of yours?" He asked. "Basically I'm supposed to be a natural at Occlumency, but so far that hasn't really worked out, so I've settled for doing this." She walked over to a pillow and concentrated on it, it began levitating and she threw it at Harry. He caught it and laughed. Mrs Weasly opened the door and looked around at them all. "The meeting is over now, Ginny what's all over your hands?"
"Dung balls mum," Ginny replied quickly. "Crookshanks likes playing with them."They went down to dinner after that, harry explaining what Quiditch was like. When they got downstairs, Harry went to the dining room, meeting up with Sirius. Ivy could tell that he missed Sirius. She understood. Then, Mr. Weasly went over to harry. "Don't worry harry," he said "Your hearing will be held in two days, Dumbledore will help. You will be fine"
Hearing? Ivy hadn't heard of Harry doing anything wrong. "What did you do harry?" She asked. He then began to explain about the Dementors and the howeler and his neighbor ms. Figg.
"Sirius, you might as well tell him. He's gonna find out eventually" Moody said after Harry finished. Sirius sighed. "You and Ivy both need to know this" Mrs. Weasly shooed the rest of the children out of the room. "We beleive that voldemort," (a few members of the order flinched at the name) "is looking for you harry. He wants to make sure you wont be there to ruin his plans."
"Why do I have to hear this?" Ivy asked, before quickly adding, "I'm not against finding out what he's up to but why me specifically?"
"Well you heard how Fudge reacted to finding out who you were." Remus supplied. "We're more worried about you being followed by the Ministry. We believe that he thinks you might turn to the death eaters even if Voldemort is back."
Ivy thought about this for a moment. "That's not fair in the slightest!" Harry protested. "Ivy is one of the least likely to turn to Voldemort I've ever met. Are they crazy?"
"You're right Harry, it's not fair but it's how they view her." Mr Weasly said, shaking his head. "But at that point they're just as bad as You-Know-Who what with the discrimination of Pure-Blood families, even if that particular member of the family isn't bad.""I think we should get back to the point." Ivy said quietly, trying to redirect the conversation.
"Voldemort is after something, something he didn't have last time." Sirius said darkly. Harry looked stunned as Mrs. Weasly began going off.
Ivy was thinking. "I have something to say" she interupted. Mrs. Weasly was arguing with Sirius for telling them too much. "One" Ivy continued "You are a group people fighting against Voldemort, and some of you are scared of saying his name." She looked around. She had caught there attention. "Now I can think of a few things we have, that voldemort doesn't. We have each other. We would all rather die before we betrayed each other. We may not have publicity, but do we really need it? No one believes us. But we know the truth. And," she said before finishing off "we all have noses" she looked around. And then noticed Moody "well, we all have at least most of ours" she finished awkwardly. She took one last look around. Some people were smiling, including Harry, Remus and Sirius. Others were rather shocked, she was usually very quiet. She felt her face burning up of embarrassment as she walked out of the room.
