                       Harry woke up next morning by someone shaking him and shouting some thing at him. It took a minute for Harry to realise that Ron was trying to wake him by shouting his name while shaking. " Get off Ron." Harry mumbled and turned over. " Harry wake up. I thought you would be coming tonight. Mom said something about ministry scandal what happened. Harry wake up." Ron shouted near Harry's ears. " Ron let Harry sleep. Haven't you listening to your mother. She said Harry was stressed and needed some sleep. Now come on get your breakfast we have work to do." Hermione voice came from doorway. " Why I have to do so much work?" Ron groaned while moving towards the door. Harry layed on the bed for 30 minutes before waking up finally. After all he have so much to ask.
                 Harry got ready in top speed before going down. Harry could hear the murmurs from the other side of kitchen door. Harry took a deep breath before opening the door, room fell silent and every one looked at Harry with different expressions Hermione is in between relief and curiosity, Ron with a lazy smile, twins with there usual mischievous smirk, Lupin and Sirius tried to hide there troubled feelings behind a smile and Mr. Weasley with a understanding look turned away from him while Mrs. Weasley came towards Harry with a motherly smile " Come Harry have some breakfast." She said breaking the silence which begining to turn awkward. Harry returned the smile while taking his seat to eat.
                     Harry started eating his breakfast thinking about the events of yesterday, he didn't had much time to think about the reason behind this incident as he was busy in thinking about how prove himself as innocent. All the people who are present at the table are giving side glance to one other while keeping an eye on Harry. They expected an outburst of anger or nonstop flow of questions but the situation is completely different from what they expected and this made them worry about Harry's mental health, after all the situations he faced are not simple things and are ment to leave an impact on the person. No one dared to speak with Harry while he is thinking deeply while eating.
                      Harry was thinking about how someone produced a wolf Patronus in the correct time he realised something " It's you, isn't it?" Harry asked suddenly looking at Lupin. " Sorry" Lupin asked not knowing what Harry was asking about. " The patronus it is you." Harry said. " Yes " Lupin said uncertainly. " Did you came to get me?" Harry asked a little hope in his voice. " Actually no, I am keeping an eye on you. We made plans to get you today but watch for in the mean time." Lupin explained dully. " Why wait till today? And what is the need to watch over?" Harry asked little frustrated. " Well as you know any magic near you will be registered as your magic so we have make arrangements to mislead the ministry from detecting magic near your house for at least 10 to 15 to get you from there. And today is the perfect time to execute that without getting into any kind of trouble as whole ministry will be involved in a meeting. We have couple of people in the ministry to ensure the plan goes well. In the mean time we that means me, Sirius, Hermione and Ron wanted to make sure you are okay as the remaining three can't come to you at this point I came to see you but the wards that prevented dementors also prevented me because of my condition from reaching you. I'm sorry Harry I couldn't do more." Lupin said moisture in his eyes.
                  " No need to say sorry professor ...... Lupin I can understand." Harry said with a smile. Usage of his name made Lupin smile. " Dementors? What happened Harry? Is this has to do anything with the tension yesterday? Are you okay Harry?" Hermione asked checking for injuries from her place. " If this had any thing to do with those muggles I will teach them a lesson?" Ron said pink in face. " No it had nothing to do with my relatives. I think it has something to do with one of the ministry officials. Yesterday evening 2 dementors tried to attack me but Dumbledore placed an protection around the house which kept them at bay. They got frustrated and started attacking muggles, even attempted to kiss one. Exactly then Lupin produced a Patronus and saved them. Because magic is performed near me ministry thought it was me just like 3 years back. Aurors showed up realized I don't have my wand and took me to the ministry for trail. First Fudge made me look like a liar but I suggested truth serum. They administered me serum for interrogation and cleared from all charges." Harry explained everyone.
                 " Later Dumbledore sent my luggage here while Lupin apparated with me. What is this place anyway?" Harry asked. " Number 12 Grimrald place, head quarters for order of phoenix." Hermione answered immediately out of habit. " Order of phoenix?" Harry turned to Hermione with questioning look. " An organisation lead by Dumbledore against you-know-who during first war." Hermione said. "If Voldemort knows about this place his first attack will be here not to consider my presence and Dumbledore's frequent visits. It's like gathering all his enemies at one place for him to kill." Harry said perplexed. " Don't worry about that Harry. This is my house. Blacks are very paranoid group so they placed every protection they can think of and Dumbledore added some more protective spells over them including felidius charm with Dumbledore himself as secret keeper." Sirius said talking for the first time since Harry came.
                Harry observed Sirius for a movement before nodding " So as this is the headquarters of order of phoenix and know what is actually happening. I have few questions." Harry said Hermione and Ron recognised a slight demand in his voice." I thought you would say that." Sirius said.
