The Rebellion

Chapter 1

“Bloody hell! I’m tired of this!” A man yells storming into the Rebellion’s Head Quarters.

The few people sitting in the room look up at the man. His bright blue eyes are full of anger. He’s running his hands through his shaggy blond hair. Everything about the man seems disheveled. Honestly, he looks completely different from the last time anyone saw him.

“What is it this time?” Ginny Weasley asks glaring at the man.

“I’m tired of living in a bloody hole in the ground! Just because that evil snake rules the world doesn’t mean that we should be stuck here! We need to do something! He can’t kill us all!” The man roars.

“What do you think we’ve been doing?!”

“Obviously not enough!”

“Both of you stop. We don’t need to be arguing amongst ourselves.” Albus Dumbledore says calmly.

The fiery redhead and the irritable blond both glare at each other, but stop arguing. They sit down and look at the wise old man. Recently, Albus has become the leader of the Rebellion. Originally he had planned to stay out of the war, saying that he’d only put the Rebels in more danger. Eventually Ginny had talked both Albus and his brother, Aberforth, to join the Rebels in their fight against He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named.

Three more people enter the small room as Albus stands up. These three sit down quickly. They stare at their leader intently. Albus is, after all, by far the wisest and strongest wizard involved in the Rebellion. Unfortunately though, he’s only You-Know-Who’s equal and not stronger than the evil wizard.

“Matthew is right. We need to do something,” Albus states making the blond smirk, “however, we need a plan first. Does anyone have any ideas?”

“Yeah. I say we march right up to Snake Face and take him down.” Matthew Creevey says.

“Oh yeah. Let’s just ask him to kill us you bloody idiot.” Ginny sneers.

“We could sneak up on him. Ambush him.” Colin Creevey whispers timidly.

“We need to take out the Death Eaters first. They’d kill us before we got anywhere near him.” Hermione Granger states matter-of-factly.

“We could use a distraction.” Ron Weasley smiles.

“We can’t afford to lose anyone else, Ron! The distraction would just end up dead! Oh wait, maybe you should volunteer Matthew.” Ginny smirks.

“In your dreams Weaslette.” Matthew rolls his eyes.

“Alright the lot of you just stop arguing. This isn’t helping anything.” Aberforth Dumbledore says making an appearance.

“I still stand by what I said years ago. If we took out Hogwarts, he wouldn’t have any more followers.” Matthew whispers.

“There are always people who will follow him, whether they attend Hogwarts or not.” Albus says.

Matthew shakes his head and stares at his feet. The room goes quiet. Everyone knows that no matter what they do, people will still follow You-Know-Who. He’ll always have followers that are willing to die for him. Even now, more people are signing up to join the ranks of the Death Eaters. Some do it because they fear for their lives, other are just evil and willing. The most well-known Death Eaters being the insane Bellatrix Lestrange along with the Malfoys.

Ginny Weasley shakes her head. The Rebellion has suffered a lot in the last few years. They always seem to be arguing about one thing or the other. Matthew and herself are constantly arguing, mainly because of a failed relationship from their Hogwarts days. At one time, Ginny was madly in love with Matthew Creevey. The key word being was. Now she just couldn’t stand the git.
