Watch the original version of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
Prologue:
The wizarding world was in turmoil. Voldemort, the Dark Lord, had returned. And yet, the Ministry of Magic and its officials refused to acknowledge it. But Harry Potter knew the truth. He had seen Voldemort’s return with his own eyes. Now, as he returned to Hogwarts for his fifth year of study, he knew that he could no longer remain silent.
Chapter 1: Dark Times Ahead
The Hogwarts Express hurtled towards Hogwarts, and Harry Potter sat quietly in one of the compartments. He was accompanied by his best friends, Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger, and yet, the usual excitement and anticipation of the new school year was missing. Harry knew that dark times lay ahead.
As the train neared its destination, Harry’s thoughts turned to the nightmare that had plagued him all summer. He had seen Voldemort’s return in a vision, witnessed the death of one of Voldemort’s servants, and was convinced that the Dark Lord was building a new army. But the Ministry of Magic remained in denial, insisting that Voldemort had not returned.
Harry was not alone in his concern. The wizarding community was abuzz with rumors and whispers about Voldemort’s return. The Daily Prophet, the wizarding newspaper, had run a series of articles that discredited Harry’s claims, portraying him as an attention-seeking troublemaker.
As the Hogwarts Express pulled into Hogsmeade station, Harry, Ron, and Hermione exited the train and made their way to the carriages that would take them to the castle. Harry’s heart sank as he saw the tight security measures in place. Dementors, the soul-sucking guards of the wizarding prison, Azkaban, had been stationed around Hogwarts, supposedly to protect the students from outside threats. But Harry knew that their presence was an ominous sign of the Ministry’s increasing control over Hogwarts.
The trio entered the castle, eager to reunite with their friends and begin the new school year. But their excitement was cut short by the new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher, Professor Umbridge. With her sickly sweet voice and love of pink, Umbridge seemed harmless at first. But it didn’t take long for Harry and his friends to realize that she was just as dangerous as Voldemort.
During the first Defense Against the Dark Arts lesson, Umbridge announced that she would not be teaching the students practical magic. Instead, she would focus on theory and memorization. Harry knew that this was a huge mistake. With Voldemort’s return, the students needed to know how to defend themselves against the dark magic that threatened them.
After class, Harry and his friends discussed their concerns. They knew that they couldn’t rely on Umbridge or the Ministry to protect them. If they were going to survive the coming dark times, they would have to take matters into their own hands.
And so, Harry made the decision to form a secret society, called Dumbledore’s Army. He would teach his fellow students practical magic and prepare them to defend themselves against the dark arts. It was a bold plan, and one that would put them in direct conflict with Umbridge and the Ministry.
But Harry knew that he had no choice. Dark times lay ahead, and he had to do everything in his power to protect himself, his friends, and the wizarding world.
Chapter 2: The Secret Society
After being dismissed by the new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher Professor Umbridge, Harry and his friends realize that they must take matters into their own hands. Harry decides to form a secret society to train students in combat magic, which he named Dumbledore’s Army in honor of their beloved headmaster. However, keeping it a secret from Umbridge and her Inquisitorial Squad would prove to be a challenging task.
Harry quickly recruited his closest friends, Ron and Hermione, to help him get started. They spread the word to other students who shared their concerns about the lack of preparation for the return of Voldemort. They held their first meeting in the hidden Room of Requirement, which only appeared to those who truly needed it.
As the weeks went by, the group grew in size and became more confident in their skills. They practiced spells and dueling techniques, and Harry made sure to give them practical lessons on how to defend themselves against the Dark Arts. He knew that Voldemort’s return was imminent and that they needed to be ready to fight at any moment.
One of the biggest challenges Dumbledore’s Army faced was keeping their meeting place a secret from Umbridge and the Inquisitorial Squad. They knew that if their group was discovered, they would face severe punishment and Harry’s dream of teaching his friends how to defend themselves would be shattered.
Their secrecy was tested when Cho Chang, an attractive Ravenclaw student who had recently started dating Harry, expressed interest in joining the group. Harry was hesitant to let her in, knowing that it would be harder to keep their meetings a secret with more people involved. However, Cho was convinced that they needed all the help they could get and promised to keep their secret safe.
At their next meeting, things took a turn for the worse when the Inquisitorial Squad burst in looking for evidence of Dumbledore’s Army. Harry, Ron, and Hermione quickly sprang into action, using their spells to distract and disable the intruders while the other members of the group escaped.
The Inquisitorial Squad was no match for Dumbledore’s Army, and they were soon overpowered. However, their victory was short-lived as Umbridge arrived on the scene and disbanded the group, leading to Harry receiving another detention from her.
Despite this setback, Dumbledore’s Army remained determined to continue their training and prepare themselves for the inevitable showdown with Voldemort and his Death Eaters. They found a new meeting place that was even more hidden than the Room of Requirement, and Harry continued to teach them new spells and tactics.
As the school year drew to a close, Harry and his friends knew that they had accomplished something important by forming Dumbledore’s Army. They had taken control of their own education and prepared themselves for the fight ahead. Harry knew that they couldn’t do it alone, and that they would need the support of their friends and allies in the wizarding world to defeat Voldemort once and for all.
Chapter 3: Detention with Dolores
Harry had never felt such a sense of dread as he did when he received his first detention with Dolores Umbridge. The woman was a tyrant, a sadistic monster who enjoyed inflicting pain and humiliation on those she deemed unworthy. And Harry was at the top of her list.
As he made his way to her office, he considered his options. He could refuse to go, but that would only make things worse. He could try to run away, but that was just as likely to get him expelled as it was to get him out of the detention. No, the only thing he could do was face it head-on and hope for the best.
When he arrived at her door, he knocked nervously and waited for her to invite him in. After a few seconds, the door opened, and he entered the room. It was a small, cramped space, with only enough room for a desk, a chair, and a few filing cabinets. Umbridge sat behind the desk, her pink cardigan and matching headband making her look like a cartoon character.
“Ah, Mr. Potter,” she said, her voice dripping with false sweetness. “Thank you for joining me.”
Harry sat down in the chair in front of her desk, trying his best to look respectful and obedient. He knew that any sign of disrespect could result in further punishment, and he didn’t want to give her any reason to make things worse.
“Now, Mr. Potter,” she said, leaning forward and steepling her fingers. “I understand that you have been spreading lies about the Dark Lord’s return.”
“They’re not lies,” Harry said, trying to keep his voice steady. “Voldemort is back, and he’s building an army.”
“Ah, yes, Voldemort,” Umbridge said, sneering at the name. “The Dark Lord, as you call him. Tell me, Mr. Potter, have you seen him? Have you spoken with him?”
“No, but-“
“Then how can you be sure of his return?” she interrupted. “Perhaps you’ve been reading too many sensationalist stories in the Daily Prophet.”
“I saw him,” Harry said, his voice growing louder. “Last year, in the graveyard. He killed Cedric Diggory.”
Umbridge leaned back in her chair, a faint smile playing at the corners of her mouth. “Yes, I read about that,” she said. “How tragic. But it still doesn’t prove anything, does it?”
Harry gritted his teeth, feeling a surge of anger rising in him. He knew he was telling the truth, and he couldn’t stand being doubted by this woman.
“I know what I saw,” he said, his voice trembling. “And I know that he’s coming for me.”
Umbridge’s smile widened, and she reached for a quill and a piece of parchment. “Well, Mr. Potter,” she said, her voice almost gleeful. “In that case, I think I have just the thing for you.”
She handed him the quill and the parchment, and Harry saw that she had written a long line of text at the top of the page.
“I must not tell lies,” it read.
“What is this?” Harry asked, feeling a sense of unease.
“Your punishment, of course,” Umbridge said. “You will write this line until it is engraved on your memory. And if you stop or make a mistake, I will know. And you will receive further punishment.”
Harry stared at the parchment, feeling a mixture of anger and fear. He knew that Umbridge was capable of anything, and he didn’t want to think about what would happen if he failed to complete the task.
“Get started, Mr. Potter,” Umbridge said, her voice cold and commanding.
With a heavy heart, Harry picked up the quill and began to write. He had no idea how long he sat there, scribbling the same sentence over and over again, but it felt like hours. His hand ached, and his eyes grew blurry with tears, but he kept going, afraid to stop.
As he wrote, he felt a sense of despair washing over him. This was not how he had imagined his fifth year at Hogwarts. He had hoped to learn more about magic, to prepare himself for the coming war. But instead, he was stuck here, being punished for telling the truth.
Eventually, he finished the line for the hundredth time and set down the quill, feeling exhausted and defeated. Umbridge looked at him with a cold smile, as if enjoying his suffering.
“I think that’s enough for tonight, Mr. Potter,” she said. “But remember, you have five more detentions to go. And if you fail to complete them, you will be expelled.”
Harry stood up, feeling a sense of relief that the torture was over for the night. But he knew that it was only the beginning. He had a long road ahead of him, and he wasn’t sure he was strong enough to endure it.
Chapter 4: Thestrals and Prophecies
As Harry and his friends navigate their fifth year at Hogwarts, they are introduced to an eerie but fascinating creature: the thestral. These winged horses can only be seen by those who have witnessed death, and Harry is shocked to find that he is now able to see them.
At first, Harry is uneasy around the thestrals. Their skeletal appearance and the fact that he can only see them because of the death of Cedric Diggory remind him of the dangers and tragedies of the wizarding world. However, he soon becomes fascinated by the creatures, especially when Hagrid offers to take the students on a ride.
Aboard the thestrals, Harry and his friends soar above the Hogwarts grounds and marvel at the beauty of the world around them. But their joy is soon interrupted when Harry discovers a prophecy that links him to Lord Voldemort.
The prophecy, which is kept in the Department of Mysteries, can only be retrieved by the person it concerns — in this case, Harry. Dumbledore explains that the prophecy states that “neither can live while the other survives,” and that Harry must be prepared to face Voldemort in a final battle.
Harry is stunned by this revelation. He has always known that he and Voldemort were connected in some way, but he had never imagined that their relationship was so deeply intertwined. Now, with the knowledge of the prophecy weighing heavily on his mind, he feels a sense of responsibility and fear unlike any he has known before.
As Harry and his friends try to make sense of the prophecy, they are forced to confront the harsh realities of their situation. They must now face the fact that the wizarding world is in grave danger, that Dumbledore is not always forthcoming with information, and that Voldemort is a formidable and dangerous enemy.
Despite these challenges, Harry is determined to face his destiny head-on. With the help of his friends and the knowledge he gains from the thestrals and the prophecy, he begins to train himself in defensive magic and preparation for the ultimate showdown with Voldemort.
As the school year progresses, Harry’s determination only grows stronger. He becomes more confident in his abilities and more focused on the task at hand. He knows that the future of the wizarding world rests on his shoulders, but instead of feeling overwhelmed, he feels empowered.
However, there are still many obstacles in Harry’s path. Umbridge and the Ministry of Magic continue to interfere with Hogwarts, making it difficult for Harry and his friends to carry out their secret training sessions. And Voldemort’s Death Eaters are always lurking in the shadows, waiting for their chance to strike.
As the tension builds, Harry becomes increasingly aware of the danger surrounding him. But he is not alone. With the support of his friends and the lessons he has learned from the thestrals and the prophecy, he is more than ready to face whatever challenges may come his way. The stage is set for a thrilling showdown, and Harry knows that he is prepared to give it his all.
Chapter 5: An Attack on Grimmauld Place
The air was thick with tension as Harry, Ron, and Hermione left Hogwarts to head to Grimmauld Place. They had received a cryptic warning that Sirius Black was in danger, and they knew they had to act fast.
As they hurried through the streets of London, Harry couldn’t shake the feeling that they were being watched. He glanced over his shoulder several times, but there was no one there.
Finally, they arrived at Grimmauld Place, and Harry’s heart sank at the sight of the Death Eaters gathered outside. It was clear that this was no ordinary attack.
Ron drew his wand and Hermione gripped Harry’s arm tightly as they rushed toward the house. They could hear the sound of fighting coming from inside, and Harry knew that they had to get in there fast.
As they approached the front door, it burst open, and a group of Death Eaters poured out. Harry and his friends launched spells at them, but they were outnumbered and outmatched. One of the Death Eaters managed to hit Ron with a curse, and he fell to the ground, writhing in pain.
Hermione rushed to Ron’s side, and Harry turned his attention back to the battle. He could see Sirius inside the house, fighting off two Death Eaters at once. Harry knew that he had to get to him, but he was hemmed in by the attackers.
Then, suddenly, the tide of the battle turned. A group of Order members arrived on the scene, led by Kingsley Shacklebolt. They joined the fray, and Harry felt a surge of hope.
The Death Eaters were clearly taken aback by the arrival of the reinforcements, and they began to retreat. Harry and his friends raced inside to join Sirius, who was panting heavily but still standing.
“Are you okay?” Harry asked, his heart pounding with relief.
“I’m fine,” Sirius said, a grin spreading across his face. “Thanks for the backup.”
The group of Order members began to clear out the remaining Death Eaters, and Harry’s thoughts turned to Ron. He went to kneel by his friend’s side and saw that his face was pale and his breathing was shallow.
“We need to get him to St. Mungo’s,” Hermione said urgently.
The group of friends worked together to carry Ron out of the house, and they Apparated to the hospital. They were met by frantic healers who took Ron into a treatment room immediately.
Harry paced outside the door, his mind racing with worry. He couldn’t bear the thought of losing yet another person he cared about. He knew that he had to do something to stop Voldemort once and for all, but he also knew that he couldn’t do it alone.
Finally, after what felt like an eternity, a healer emerged from the room. She looked tired but relieved.
“He’s going to be fine,” she said. “We were able to reverse the curse in time.”
Harry let out a huge sigh of relief, and he felt a weight lift from his shoulders. He knew that Ron still had a long road to recovery, but he was grateful that he was going to make it.
As they left the hospital, Harry’s thoughts turned back to the battle at Grimmauld Place. He knew that they had been lucky to make it out alive, and he knew that they had a lot of work to do if they were going to stop Voldemort and his Death Eaters for good.
Chapter 6: The Great Hall Invasion
The atmosphere at Hogwarts becomes more oppressive as the year progresses. Dolores Umbridge, the new Hogwarts High Inquisitor, is enforcing her own rules and regulations with an iron fist. She bans all forms of student gatherings and social events, and goes to great lengths to keep tabs on every student’s movement. However, Harry and his friends refuse to let Umbridge get away with her tyranny. They plot to fight back by creating a secret rebellion, using the Great Hall as their battleground.
One evening, after finishing dinner, Harry, Ron, and Hermione secretly slip into the Great Hall. They bring with them rolls of parchment, paint, and brushes. They have a plan to create a mural, painting something that represents Dumbledore’s Army. It’s risky, as they can get caught at any moment, but Harry and his friends are determined to make a statement.
The Great Hall is quiet, the few remaining students preparing to leave for their dormitories. The three friends are careful to keep quiet as they set up their supplies. They take turns looking out for Umbridge or any of her minions. They know that if they’re caught, they’ll be expelled, but they’re willing to take the risk.
The first part of their plan involves painting a large mural on the wall, something that will catch everyone’s attention when they walk into the Great Hall the next morning. They start sketching the outline of a phoenix, a symbol of hope and rebirth. They take turns working on the details, making sure to mix colors well, and using the correct brushstrokes.
As they work, they hear footsteps approaching. It’s Filch, the school caretaker, who is patrolling the hallway. They freeze in fear, waiting for him to enter. They crouch behind the wooden tables, hoping they’re not spotted. Fortunately, Filch continues on his way without entering the Great Hall.
They breathe a sigh of relief and continue their work. Once the phoenix is painted, they add the words “Dumbledore’s Army” underneath it, in large, bold letters. They step back, admiring their work, but there’s still more to be done.
Next, they plan on hanging banners from the ceiling, each with a slogan that reflects their discontent with Umbridge’s rules. Harry unfurls a large, red banner with the words, “Down with Umbridge,” and Ron hangs a blue banner with the words, “We Will Not Be Silenced.”
The last part of their plan is the most dangerous. Hermione uses her wand to levitate a heavy chandelier, suspending it in midair above the center of the Great Hall. Harry then carefully places a large hexagonal cage on the table beneath the chandelier. Inside the cage is a small, winged creature.
“Is it safe?” Ron whispers, eyeing the creature warily.
“It’s a Cornish Pixie,” Hermione answers, “I’ve charmed it to stay put.”
“What’s it for?” Harry asks.
“Wait for it,” Hermione says, with a mischievous smile.
They complete the final touches on the banners, then carefully slide under the tables, crouching in darkness. They wait, tense and anxious, their hearts pounding in their chests, for Umbridge’s arrival.
Soon, they hear a group of footsteps approaching. It’s Umbridge and her minions. They enter the Great Hall, their eyes scanning the room for any signs of disturbance. But the Great Hall looks the same as it did earlier in the evening, so Umbridge seems satisfied.
The group of students, watching from under the tables, slowly begin to emerge. Suddenly, Hermione points her wand towards the cage containing the Cornish Pixie, and with a flick of her wand, the door of the cage flies open. The Pixie bursts out, flitting around the room, knocking over chairs and tables as Umbridge and her minions try to catch it.
Amidst the chaos, Harry and his friends step out from their hiding places. They stand in the center of the room, facing Umbridge and her group.
“What is the meaning of this?” Umbridge demands, her voice cold and menacing.
“This is our response to your tyranny,” Harry says, his voice calm and steady.
Umbridge looks around the room, taking in the banners, the mural, and the levitating chandelier. Her eyes narrow.
“You will all be punished for this,” she says, “I will have you all expelled.”
But Harry, Ron, and Hermione stand firm. They will not let Umbridge take away their right to freedom and self-expression.
The Great Hall Invasion marks a turning point in the year at Hogwarts. It inspires a wave of rebellion among the student body, and Dumbledore’s Army gains new members. The magic of the mural and banners imbues the students with a sense of hope and resilience, even in the face of the darkest of times.
Chapter 7: The Ministry of Magic
Harry, Ron, and Hermione sat nervously in the abandoned house in Tottenham Court Road. They knew what they had to do, but the risks were high. They were going to infiltrate the Ministry of Magic to retrieve the prophecy that linked Harry and Voldemort.
They had come up with a plan, or at least, the bare bones of one. They would use Polyjuice Potion to disguise themselves as Ministry employees. Hermione had secured the potion ingredients from Severus Snape’s private stores, but they needed to find a way to obtain the hair samples from the Ministry employees they wished to impersonate.
“I’ll distract them,” Hermione said firmly. “You two can take their hair and we’ll meet back here in two hours.”
“Are you sure about this?” Harry asked, his forehead creased with concern. “It’s too dangerous.”
“We have to do this, Harry,” Hermione replied, her voice determined. “We can’t let the prophecy fall into the wrong hands.”
Ron nodded in agreement. “We’re with you, Hermione.”
The trio drank the Polyjuice Potion and emerged from the house as three Ministry employees. They entered the Ministry of Magic through the Visitor’s Entrance, hoping that their disguises would hold up under scrutiny.
The atrium of the Ministry of Magic was a bustling hub of activity, with witches and wizards rushing to their various departments. Harry’s heart raced as they passed by familiar faces, wondering if they would be recognized. They made their way to the Department of Mysteries, where the prophecy was kept.
As they approached the door to the Department of Mysteries, Hermione suddenly stopped, her eyes widening in alarm. “Umbridge!” she hissed, grabbing Ron and Harry by the arms and dragging them behind a nearby statue.
Sure enough, Dolores Umbridge was approaching them, her simpering smile fixed firmly in place. “Well, well, well,” she said, her eyes glinting. “What are you three doing here?”
“We’re just on our way to the Department of Mysteries,” Hermione said, forcing a smile.
“Oh, I see,” Umbridge said, her gaze flickering over their Ministry employee badges. “And what is your business there?”
“We’re conducting some research,” Hermione said smoothly.
Umbridge’s smile turned into a sneer. “I don’t recall any research being authorized for today.”
“We have permission from our department head,” Hermione lied, hoping that their Polyjuice Potion would hold.
Umbridge leaned in, her sickly sweet breath filling their noses. “I’ll be checking with your department head,” she said, her eyes narrowing. “And if I find out that you’re lying, you’ll be in big trouble.”
With that, Umbridge swept away, leaving Harry, Ron, and Hermione to catch their breath. “That was close,” Ron said, his voice shaking.
Hermione’s expression was grim. “We have to be more careful. The Ministry is crawling with Death Eaters and we can’t afford to be caught.”
The trio made their way to the Department of Mysteries, dodging Ministry workers and keeping their heads down. They passed through the door into the circular room, filled with floating orbs that contained prophecies. They searched frantically for the one that contained the prophecy linking Harry and Voldemort.
Suddenly, they heard a door open and footsteps approaching. Harry spun around, his wand at the ready, but it was too late. Lucius Malfoy and a group of Death Eaters had arrived, intent on retrieving the prophecy for Voldemort.
“Give us the prophecy, Potter,” Malfoy hissed, his wand trained on Harry.
“No!” Harry shouted, stepping forward protectively. “You’re not taking this prophecy.”
The battle was fierce and intense, with spells flying and debris falling. Harry, Ron, and Hermione fought with everything they had, determined to protect the prophecy and each other. Finally, after what seemed like hours, the Death Eaters began to retreat.
As the smoke cleared, Harry saw with horror that something was wrong with his mentor, Albus Dumbledore. Malfoy had cursed him and his wand hand was blackened and withered. Harry and his friends rushed to his side, but it was too late. Dumbledore was dying.
“You must go, Harry,” Dumbledore said weakly. “You know what you must do.”
Harry nodded, tears streaming down his face as he realized that he had to fight Voldemort alone. He stood up, his determination renewed. The fate of the wizarding world rested on his shoulders.
As they made their way out of the Ministry of Magic, Harry, Ron, and Hermione were shaken by the events of the night. They had risked everything to retrieve the prophecy, but at what cost?
“We’ll get through this,” Ron said, his voice rough with emotion. “Together.”
Harry nodded, grateful for his friends’ support. They had a long road ahead of them, but he knew that he was not alone.
Chapter 8: The End of an Era
The battle raged on as Harry and his friends fought against the Death Eaters in the Department of Mysteries. Spells and curses flew everywhere as the two sides clashed, determined to emerge victorious.
Harry’s thoughts were in a whirl as he fought against the Death Eaters. He felt a deep sense of loss and sadness at the death of Sirius Black, but he also knew that he had to focus on the battle at hand. He could not let his emotions get the better of him.
As the battle continued, Harry saw a figure emerge from the shadows. It was Voldemort himself. Harry felt a surge of fear at the sight of the Dark Lord, but he knew that he had to confront him if he wanted to end this war once and for all.
Harry and Voldemort faced each other, their wands at the ready. The tension in the air was palpable as the two most powerful wizards in the world prepared to engage in a deadly duel.
The spells flew fast and furious as Harry and Voldemort battled each other. Harry felt a sense of power and determination coursing through his veins as he fought to defeat the Dark Lord.
Despite their best efforts, the Death Eaters began to gain the upper hand in the battle. Harry’s friends were fighting bravely, but they were outnumbered and outmatched. Harry knew that they needed help if they were going to survive.
And help came in the form of Dumbledore. The headmaster of Hogwarts had finally arrived, and he was ready to take on Voldemort and his followers.
The sight of Dumbledore filled Harry with a sense of relief and hope. He knew that with Dumbledore on their side, they might just have a chance of defeating Voldemort once and for all.
The battle continued to rage on as Harry, his friends, and Dumbledore fought against Voldemort and his Death Eaters. Spells flew back and forth, and the air was thick with the sound of clashing wands and the screams of the wounded.
And then, in a moment of pure, unadulterated horror, Voldemort unleashed a killing curse on Dumbledore. Harry could not believe what he was seeing. He felt as though his world had stopped turning. Was Dumbledore really dead?
Harry’s heart was filled with a sense of rage and determination as he realized that he was now the only one who could defeat Voldemort. He felt the weight of the prophecy on his shoulders, and he knew that he had to see this through to the end.
And so, with a fierce determination burning in his heart, Harry engaged Voldemort in an epic battle that would determine the fate of the wizarding world. Spells flew back and forth, and the two powerful wizards fought with everything they had.
It was a battle for the ages, and in the end, Harry emerged victorious. Voldemort was defeated, and the wizarding world was safe once more.
But the victory came at a great cost. Many of Harry’s friends had been injured or killed in the battle, and the loss of Dumbledore was a blow that Harry would never fully recover from.
The end of the battle marked the end of an era for Harry and his friends. They had grown up together, and they had fought together against the greatest evil the wizarding world had ever seen.
As Harry looked around at the wreckage of the Department of Mysteries, he felt a profound sense of loss and sadness. But there was also a sense of hope and possibility. The future was uncertain, but Harry knew that he and his friends would face it together, as they always had.
And so, with a heavy heart but a sense of purpose, Harry and his friends made their way out of the Department of Mysteries and back to the safety of Hogwarts, ready to face whatever challenges the future might bring.
Chapter 9: Dumbledore’s Return
Harry stepped off the Hogwarts Express and felt a weight lift off his shoulders. He had just witnessed the death of his godfather Sirius Black and the truth about the prophecy that connected him to Voldemort and Dumbledore.
As he walked towards the castle, Harry was surprised to see the Hogwarts students out of their dormitories, all gathered in the entrance hall. He noticed that the professors were also present, as well as some of the Order members.
Dumbledore suddenly appeared at the top of the staircase leading to his office. A hush fell over the crowd as he descended the steps, his eyes focused on Harry. They met halfway and Dumbledore embraced him warmly. Harry felt comforted by the familiarity of the gesture.
Dumbledore then addressed the students. “My dear students, I know these have been trying times for all of us. However, I am here to let you know that Hogwarts is still your home and will remain so for as long as you need it.”
Cheers and applause erupted from the students as Dumbledore continued, “I also want to assure you all that we are doing everything in our power to ensure your safety. The Order of the Phoenix is working tirelessly to protect all that matters to us.”
Some students looked skeptical, and Harry felt their lack of trust in the Order. He knew what they needed was proof that they were not alone in this fight.
Dumbledore seemed to sense Harry’s thoughts. He looked at him with a twinkle in his eye. “Now, I believe our Head Boy has something he would like to add.”
Harry was taken aback but quickly composed himself. He looked at the students, feeling a sense of responsibility that he had never felt before. He lifted his wand and said, “I solemnly swear that I am up to no good.”
The Marauder’s Map appeared in Harry’s hands, and he held it up for all to see. “This is the Marauder’s Map, a magical map that shows the location of every person in Hogwarts. And I assure you, it’s accurate.”
He then explained how he and his friends had used the map to help Sirius and how they had also used it to sneak around Hogwarts undetected.
“But most importantly,” Harry said, “we used it to form Dumbledore’s Army. A secret society aimed at teaching students how to defend themselves against the dark arts.”
Some students looked surprised, while others looked impressed. A few even whispered Dumbledore’s Army with a sense of awe.
Dumbledore then spoke. “I commend you, Harry. Dumbledore’s Army is exactly what this school needs. The students have a right to learn how to defend themselves, especially in times like these.”
The crowd cheered, and Harry felt a sense of pride. He had never expected Dumbledore to approve of his actions, but he was grateful he did.
“However,” Dumbledore continued, “I must ask you all to be careful. The Ministry of Magic will not tolerate any unauthorized gatherings of students. So, be sure to keep your meetings secret.”
Harry and his friends nodded, and Dumbledore seemed to magically disappear, leaving them all in awe.
As the students dispersed, Harry felt a sense of hope. He knew that he was not alone in the fight against Voldemort and that he had the support of his fellow students, as well as the most powerful wizard in the world.
He walked towards the Gryffindor common room, feeling a sense of purpose. He knew that the journey ahead of him would not be easy, but he was ready for whatever came his way.
The war was far from over, but Harry had Dumbledore, his friends, and the knowledge that he was not alone to face it.
Chapter 10: The Battle of Hogwarts
The air was thick with the smell of smoke and magic, as Harry and his allies faced off against Voldemort and his Death Eaters in the ultimate battle for the fate of the wizarding world.
The Hogwarts grounds were in shambles, with debris and spells flying in all directions. Ron and Hermione fought valiantly beside Harry, their wands flashing in the dim light of the Great Hall.
“Expelliarmus!” Hermione shouted, sending a jet of red light towards Bellatrix Lestrange, who dodged it with ease.
“Stupefy!” Ron yelled, but his spell was blocked by a shield charm from one of the Death Eaters.
Harry was focused on Voldemort, using all of his training and skill to dodge the dark wizard’s curses and try to land a blow of his own. Their wands clashed in a shower of sparks, as Harry pushed back with all his strength.
“Avada Kedavra!” Voldemort hissed, aiming a fatal curse at Harry.
But Harry was ready, and he sent a powerful shield spell to deflect the curse back at Voldemort. The dark wizard was caught off guard, and the curse hit him squarely in the chest.
For a moment, there was stunned silence, as everyone watched as Voldemort’s body crumbled to dust, his wand clattering to the ground.
Harry felt an overwhelming sense of relief wash over him, but he was quickly jolted back to reality by the sound of fighting nearby.
He turned to see Bellatrix Lestrange advancing on Hermione, and he lunged to protect her. Their wands clashed once again, as Harry used his newfound confidence to finally overpower Bellatrix.
She stumbled backwards, and Harry took the opportunity to disarm her with a swift flick of his wand. She fell to the ground, defeated.
Ron was battling with a group of Death Eaters, but he managed to hold his own with his trademark courage and determination. Hermione joined him, and together they were able to defeat their opponents.
The remaining Death Eaters fled the scene, and the Hogwarts students and staff emerged from their hiding places to survey the damage.
Harry looked around at the faces of his friends, and he felt a sense of pride and gratitude for their loyalty and bravery. He knew that they had all risked their lives to end the war and protect the wizarding world.
As the dust settled, Harry turned to see Dumbledore approaching. The old wizard’s eyes were twinkling with pride, as he laid a hand on Harry’s shoulder.
“Well done, my boy,” Dumbledore said, his voice filled with admiration. “You have saved us all.”
Harry felt a sudden surge of emotion, and he embraced Dumbledore in a tight hug. They both knew that this was not the end of their struggles, but for now, they could take comfort in their hard-won victory.
The Hogwarts students and staff gathered in the Great Hall, to celebrate their triumph and mourn their losses. Harry looked around at the familiar faces, and he felt a sense of hope for the future.
As he sat down to join his friends, Harry knew that he had fulfilled his destiny. He had faced his fears, learned the value of courage, and emerged as a hero.
But he also knew that he had gained something greater than any magical power or victory. He had found a family in his friends, and a purpose in his fight for justice and peace.
The journey had been long and treacherous, but as Harry looked up at the night sky, he knew that he was exactly where he was meant to be.

Scene 1: Dark Times Ahead
FADE IN:
INT. HOGWARTS GREAT HALL – DAY
Harry Potter sits at the Gryffindor table with his best friends, Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger, as they discuss the news of Voldemort’s return. Albus Dumbledore stands up to address the students.
DUMBLEDORE
Good evening, students. I have called this meeting to address the rumors surrounding He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named’s return. I can assure you that they are true. Dark times lie ahead.
The students murmur amongst themselves as Dolores Umbridge enters the Great Hall. She takes her place at the staff table, eyeing Dumbledore with suspicion.
DUMBLEDORE
In light of these events, I must remind you all that the Ministry of Magic has deemed it necessary to appoint a High Inquisitor to oversee Hogwarts. Allow me to introduce Professor Umbridge.
Umbridge stands to address the students.
UMBRIDGE
Thank you, Headmaster. As the new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher, it is my duty to ensure the safety of all students. We will be implementing new security measures to protect you from the dangers that lie outside these walls.
Harry exchanges a worried look with Ron and Hermione.
UMBRIDGE
Furthermore, I must remind you that all student organizations and meetings must now be approved by myself or Professor Snape.
Hermione whispers to Harry and Ron.
HERMIONE
This is bad. We won’t be able to teach Defense Against the Dark Arts if Umbridge is in charge.
RON
What are we going to do?
Harry looks determined.
HARRY
We’ll do it ourselves.
FADE OUT.
Scene 2
FADE IN:
EXT. HOGWARTS SCHOOL OF WITCHCRAFT AND WIZARDRY – DAY
Harry and his friends Ron and Hermione are walking down a corridor at Hogwarts. Harry is deep in thought, his eyes focused ahead of him.
RON
What’s on your mind, Harry?
HARRY
We need to do something to prepare ourselves for what’s coming. We can’t just sit back and wait for Voldemort to make his move.
HERMIONE
I agree. But what can we do? Dumbledore isn’t here to help us this year.
HARRY
We’ll have to do it ourselves. We’ll have to form a secret society, a group of students who are willing to learn how to defend themselves against the dark arts.
RON
A secret society? That sounds a bit dodgy, mate.
HARRY
We have no choice, Ron. We have to do whatever it takes to protect ourselves and our friends.
HERMIONE
I’ll help you, Harry. We can call it Dumbledore’s Army.
RON
Alright, I’m in.
FADE OUT.
FADE IN:
INT. EMPTY CLASSROOM – DAY
Harry, Ron, and Hermione are sitting at a table in an empty classroom. They have a piece of parchment in front of them and quills in their hands.
HERMIONE
So, we need to figure out how we’re going to teach everyone.
HARRY
I’ve been thinking about that. We can use the Room of Requirement. It’s a magical room that can be whatever we need it to be.
RON
How do we get into it?
HARRY
We just have to walk past it three times, thinking of what we need.
HERMIONE
Brilliant. Now we just need to figure out what we’re going to teach.
HARRY
Defense against the dark arts. Spells, charms, jinxes, whatever we can think of.
RON
Sounds like a lot of work.
HARRY
It will be, but it’s worth it if it means we can protect ourselves and our friends.
FADE OUT.
FADE IN:
INT. ROOM OF REQUIREMENT – DAY
Harry, Ron, Hermione, and a group of students are standing in a large room filled with desks and chairs. Harry is standing at the front of the room, holding a wand.
HARRY
Welcome to Dumbledore’s Army. We’re here to learn how to defend ourselves against the dark arts.
The students look nervous but determined.
HARRY (CONT’D)
Today, we’ll start with the Disarming Charm. Watch closely.
Harry demonstrates the spell, and the students mimic him.
FADE OUT.
End of scene.
Scene 3
FADE IN:
INT. HOGWARTS CASTLE, CLASSROOM – DAY
Umbridge stands at the front of the classroom, glaring at Harry, who is writing lines with a blood quill.
UMBRIDGE
(whispers)
Don’t forget to keep your hand up, Mr. Potter. It would be a shame if you didn’t gain the full effect.
Harry winces in pain, but continues writing.
HARRY
(angrily)
Why are you doing this to me?
UMBRIDGE
(smiling)
Because you and your friends are a threat to the Ministry, and I won’t stand for it.
Suddenly, the door bursts open and Ron and Hermione rush in.
HERMIONE
(angrily)
You can’t do this, Professor Umbridge.
RON
(resolutely)
Yeah, we’re not afraid of you or your detentions.
Umbridge looks shocked at the sudden interruption.
UMBRIDGE
(to the trio)
You’ll all receive detentions for this interruption.
HARRY
(spitting)
We don’t care.
Umbridge looks furious, but Ron and Hermione stand defiantly next to Harry.
CUT TO:
INT. HOGWARTS CASTLE, CORRIDOR – DAY
The trio walks out of the classroom, with Hermione and Ron looking worried.
HERMIONE
(whispering)
We need to find a way to stop her.
RON
(determinedly)
Yeah, we can’t let her get away with this.
HARRY
(thoughtfully)
I think I have an idea.
CUT TO:
INT. HOGWARTS CASTLE, EMPTY CLASSROOM – DAY
Harry, Ron, and Hermione are gathered around a table, with parchment and quills out.
HARRY
(plan in hand)
We need to get the word out about what Umbridge is doing. We can write an article and distribute it around Hogwarts.
RON
(excitedly)
That’s a brilliant idea. I can help with the distribution.
HERMIONE
(nodding)
And I can help with the research and writing.
Harry smiles, feeling a sense of relief that he has friends who will stand with him.
FADE OUT.

PROFESSOR TRELAWNEY:
(whispering) I see darkness…a great danger to all.
HARRY:
What do you see, Professor?
PROFESSOR TRELAWNEY:
(closing her eyes) I see a boy…born as the seventh month dies…he has the power to defeat the Dark Lord.
RON:
What does that mean?
HERMIONE:
It’s the prophecy we heard about in the Ministry of Magic.
NEVILLE:
But what does it mean for Harry?
PROFESSOR TRELAWNEY:
This boy…he will be marked as the Dark Lord’s equal…but he will have power beyond his reckoning…and either must die at the hands of the other for neither can live while the other survives.
LUNA:
(interrupting) That means one of them has to kill the other.
HARRY:
(emphasizing) That means I have to kill Voldemort.
RON:
But how will you do it? Voldemort is too powerful.
HERMIONE:
(puts a hand on Harry’s shoulder) We’ll figure it out. We’re in this together, Harry.
Neville looks at Harry with determination.
NEVILLE:
I’m with you too, Harry.
LUNA:
And I’ll be there too. We’ll fight by your side.
HARRY:
(smiling) Thanks guys. We’ll do this together.
The group exits the Astronomy Tower, ready to face whatever challenges lie ahead.

RON
This is crazy! How are we supposed to fight them all?
HERMIONE
We don’t have to fight them all. We just have to hold them off until help arrives.
SIRIUS
(helpfully)
And until then, keep your heads down and your wands up.
Harry is clutching his wand tightly, his eyes darting around the room for any sign of an advantage.
HARRY
(urgently)
We need to split up. They’re coming at us from all sides.
Sirius nods, and the group separates, each taking a different corner of the room. Spells fly fast and furious as they battle the Death Eaters.
One of the Death Eaters lunges at Harry, and he dodges, sending a spell ricocheting off the wall. It hits another Death Eater, who goes down with a scream.
Suddenly, there is a flash of light and the sound of shattering glass. Two figures appear in the middle of the room: Snape and McGonagall.
MCGONAGALL
(urgently)
We need to evacuate. Now!
The group hurries out of the room, dodging spells and debris as they race to the front door.
Just as they reach the threshold, a powerful explosion rocks the house. Harry looks back to see a wall collapsing, burying the Death Eaters under a pile of bricks and mortar.
They stumble outside, gasping for breath as they take in the devastation around them. The once-stately house is now a smoking ruin.
SIRIUS
(gravely)
We’ll rebuild. But for now, we need to get out of here.

But what?
Ron notices something and nudges Harry and Hermione.
RON
(whispering excitedly)
Look, Fred and George have got a plan.
Fred and George stand up and begin to chant loudly. The other students watch in amazement.
FRED AND GEORGE
(singing)
Oh, Umbridge, we hate you so,
We’ll fight until we see you go,
We’ll never rest until we’re free,
You can’t stop the DA from being!
Umbridge looks visibly annoyed and begins to speak but Fred and George continue their song, drowning her out.
HERMIONE
(whispering)
This is brilliant. It’s like a mini-rebellion.
HARRY
(whispering)
But what happens if Umbridge finds out it was us?
NEVILLE, GINNY, LUNA
(whispering in unison)
We’re with you, Harry.

UMBRIDGE
(angrily)
What is the meaning of this?
HARRY
(smiling)
It’s the beginning of the end, Umbridge.

Harry nods, looking around the Atrium. Suddenly, they hear a commotion and turn to see Dolores Umbridge rushing towards them.
UMBRIDGE
(to Harry)
And just what do you think you’re doing here, Mr. Weasley?
Harry’s heart races as he tries to think of a cover story.
HARRY
(stammering)
We-we’re here on official Ministry business. Just some routine paperwork.
UMBRIDGE
(skeptical)
I see. And what exactly is in those briefcases?
Hermione steps forward, trying to divert Umbridge’s attention.
HERMIONE
(quickly)
It’s just some research material for the Department of Mysteries. We’re under strict orders not to reveal the contents to anyone but our superiors.
Umbridge narrows her eyes, but seems satisfied. She nods towards the elevator.
UMBRIDGE
Very well. You may proceed.
Harry, Ron, and Hermione quickly make their way towards the elevator. As the doors close, Hermione lets out a sigh of relief.
HERMIONE
That was close.
RON

So what’s the plan again?
Hermione pulls out a map of the Department of Mysteries.

(to Death Eaters)
Find Potter and his friends. Do not let them leave this place alive.
Harry’s heart pounds as he grips his wand tightly. The Death Eaters fan out, searching the hallway.
HARRY
(to Ron and Hermione)
We have to keep moving. Stay close.
They start running, trying to avoid the Death Eaters. Suddenly, a figure appears in front of them. It’s Neville Longbottom.
NEVILLE
(hurried)
I heard what you’re doing. I want to help.
Harry nods, grateful for the extra help.
HARRY
(whispering)
Stick with us.
They continue running down the hallway, their hearts racing. Suddenly, they turn a corner and come face to face with a group of Death Eaters.
DEATH EATER
(sneering)
Well, well, well. What do we have here?
Harry raises his wand, ready to fight.

(firmly)
Let’s finish this.
The Death Eaters charge forward, ready for battle.

Harry, Ron, Hermione, Ginny, Neville, and Luna stand in shock, staring at the lifeless body of Sirius Black, who has just been killed by Voldemort.
HARRY: No… no, it can’t be…
RON: We have to get out of here, Harry. We have to go back to Hogwarts and tell Dumbledore what happened.
HERMIONE: Ron’s right, Harry. We need to leave this place.
But just as they turn to leave, a group of Death Eaters appear, led by Bellatrix Lestrange.
BELLATRIX: Well, well, well. Look who we have here. The famous Harry Potter, and his little friends.
HARRY: Bellatrix, you killed Sirius. You’ll pay for what you’ve done.

The group engages in a fierce battle, dodging spells and curses left and right. Harry takes on Bellatrix one-on-one, the two of them locked in a heated duel.
