Harry Potter's sister ~~~ Fanfiction

Dream date part 78

Both Harry and Emma had a genuine hope that there anonymously sent Christmas presents were safe to use. Although Harry still failed to see what his sister's attraction to the thirty phials filled with expensive chemicals.

"We need to plan a party." Said Harry. "For when everyone comes back."

"A return party?" said Demelza. "Ok, when."

"After everyone comes back but before classes start." Said Emma. "That way we don't have to worry about cutting into Hermione's homework schedule."

"That only leaves the Sunday." Said Harry looking at a calendar. The three of them were in the otherwise empty Gryffindor Common Room making plans for when the rest of the group came back.

"You know we should really come up with a name." said Demelza. "For our group."

"We're Harry's Defence Group." Said Emma. "Isn't that good enough?"

"Don't you want it to become something… more though?" said Demelza.

"When it becomes something more, we'll name it something more." Said Harry. "Right now it's just a bunch of us exchanging spell-fire."

"If you say so, oh divine leader." Said Demelza.

"Divine am I?" said Harry.

"Very." Joked Emma. "Seriously though we would all be struggling in Defence without you, granted now that Lupin is around we're not way behind like everyone else is, but…"

"We should come up with a name. I mean, the Marauders did." Said Demelza.

"Marauders?" said Harry "Oh right the people who made that map. Well we need to have something about our group before we can give ourselves a name. We can't just be the Duelling Club, because we do so much more than duelling. I don't know what but…"

"Well let's see." Said Emma. "Other than mindless duelling we've: brewed Polyjuice Potion, fought a battle against giant spiders… wait does that count as duelling?"

"No." said Demelza. "Just fighting. We've also killed a Basilisk, the ghost thing that was controlling it and we conspire to throw awesome swimming parties.

"So we fight a lot, brew using chemicals we shouldn't and interact with dangerous yet rare creatures. It's settled, we're the Hogwarts Mafia." Said Harry.

"Harry." Said Emma despondently. "Come on, you're our leader. You're supposed to be more enthusiastic."

"Well until our group becomes something more than a group of friends occupying a room or two, I don't think we can come up with a name." said Harry.

"We need a cause." Said Demelza. "What about anti-blood-bigotry, we're good with that?"

"We need to actually dedicate ourselves to the cause first, we need aims and desires, even just rough ones." Said Harry.

"The Marauders never had aims or desires." Said Emma.

"Purveyors of Magical Mischief?" quoted Harry.

"Apart from that." Said Emma.

"Maybe we could become a swimming club?" said Demelza.
