Harry,
Draco, Hermione, Ron, Ginny, Neville, and Luna were all sitting inside the
Three Broomsticks going over the lesson plan with Harry for the next DA
meeting. It was now the weekend before Halloween and a Hogsmeade weekend. Harry
had asked them all to gather around to help him plan because all of them but
Draco were present to the DA before the new recruits were brought in. He had
made them all assistant instructors so that the, now large, group of students
would be prepared for what was coming in November. They all spent the last
three weeks catching the new members up to date on the spells that they�d
learned the last year and were now discussing the progress and whether everyone
was ready to continue on with the Patronus spell.

�So
you got the okay from Dumbledore to teach it to all of us?� Luna asked in her
dreamy fashion.

�He
thinks it�s safe so we�ll be doing it in the next lesson if you guys say
they�re ready. I know the new and old seventh year members are,� Harry said.

�The
third years are. I�m rather surprised at how fast they caught on to the spells
we�ve already taught them,� Hermione said. Harry grinned. He knew if anyone
could catch a third year up on such subject matter, it was defiantly Hermione.

�Fourth
years are definitely ready. I�ve been working with some of them out of class
while you guys were ing ing on your material for Spell Invention. They�re
coming along quite nicely if I do say so myself,� Ron said beaming with pride; Hermione
slipped an arm around his waist.

�I
only had to catch up about six fifth years so they�re fine. I believe they
would be ready to start on the Patronus Charm,� Neville said.

�I�ve
been watching you with the others Neville, you should really look into a job as
a teacher after school,� Ginny commented clapping him on the shoulder.

�Thanks,�
Neville murmured embarrassed.

�How
about the sixth years, are they ready?� Harry asked looking at Ginny and Luna
who had been working with that group because it seemed to be the larger group
from all the others.

�As
far as I can tell, they�re ready. A few of them didn�t like the fact that they
had to review things they�d already learned, but after we told them that they
were doing it wrong anyway, the wizened up and decided to stop questioning us,�
Ginny said mischievously.

�Especially
after the Bat-Bogey hex you put Zabini under,� Luna said with the same glint.

�So
we�re all agreed that the next lesson shouldn�t be pushed back any further?�
Harry asked as Hermione kept an eye on her Quick Quill to make sure everything
was written down in detail. All the others nodded in unison. �Great! We have a
lot of Bogarts left over after we finished the Dementor Binder, so we should
have enough to practice on for the time being,� he finished taking a swig of
his Butterbeer.

�Have
we had any more reactions from the parchment yet?� Ron asked. Hermione shook
her head no.

Hermione
had cursed the new parchment to highlight the name of any person that reviled
the nature of the meetings, or that went against the alliance of Dumbledore�s
Army. Only one person in the past month had been caught, but as it turned out,
it was good for the group. Sally-Anne was apparently a proud pureblood witch,
as were her parents. Though her parents, specifically her father, were overly
proud and agreed with the Dark Lord. As it turns out, Sally-Anne had a Deatheater for a father and was insistent on carrying on
the charade that she too was going to father in his esteemed footsteps, though
she had no reason to do so. So, instead, she acted as Snape did. She fed bits
of true information to keep everyone happy and so that it was concurrent with
the other reports from Hogwarts, but for the better part, she told her father
that due to being in Hufflepuff, she was usually overlooked when it came to
popularity or social status.

Of
course none of this was figured out until she had breached the contract of the
DA. She had told her father that, yes, it had been reformed, but that she was
not part of the inner circle so she wasn�t given any information about what was
happening behind the scenes. She was asked about what happened to the Dementors
and she told them that she wasn�t aware of any Dementor attack. This seemed to
infuriate her father who brooded as to why Dumbledore kept the whole thing
hush-hush.

Hermione
was, of course, the first one aware that the contract had been breached and by
whom it was breached by and immediately took action. She, Ron, and Harry had all
made a trip to the Hufflepuff common room after locating Sally-Anne on the Marauder�s
Map. After they had spoken to Hannah at the entrance, she whisked them away
inside to take care of the situation. Harry was taken slightly aback at how
furious she was at the betrayal. It seemed as though she was personally
insulted by the breach. Though, Harry reasoned, she was a Hufflepuff, which
were known for their fierce loyalty.

At
seeing the trio enter the common room Sally-Anne cut off the floo to her father
with a hiss and stood up to greet them guiltily knowing full well that she had
been caught. Hermione, being always the voice of reason, allowed her to plead
her case before they booted her from the DA and let Harry perform the memory charm
on her that would wipe her memory of the meetings as if she�d never been to
one. They all stood shocked as she reviled that her father was a Deatheater and that she did, in fact, give him information
about the DA. She immediately followed the confession with her small tidbit of
information and asked that be able to remain. The three spoke briefly alone to
contemplate the seriousness of the event before Harry came to the conclusion of
using her as a small spy to get information on any attacks that would happen in
or around the school. She agreed whole-heartedly before letting Harry view the
conversation via Legilimency and affirm her story. The DA now had a spy.

�So,
Sally hasn�t come to you with any recent information?� Ginny asked.

�No,
but that doesn�t necessarily mean that there�s nothing happening, after all,
this is Tom we�re talking about,� Draco said sarcastically. It was then that
Harry felt a twinge in his scar. He rubbed with his brow furrowed for a moment.

�Harry?�
Ron said cautiously. Harry looked at him. �Is it hurting?� he asked lowering
his voice.

�Just
a slight prickle,� he said reassuringly.

�Harry,
that doesn�t mean anything!� Hermione hissed, �You know how well your mental
walls are built, there�s no reason you should feel anything unless---,� she
trailed off looking at Harry and paling.

�Unless
what?� Luna asked confused.

�Unless
he�s near by,� Harry said standing up. The crowed in the pub was so loud that
even with the voice amplifier he�d never be able to warn everyone. The others
had stood along with him and were looking at him expectantly for instructions.

�Well,
what are we supposed to do?� Neville said determinedly. Harry heaved a heavy sigh, there was only one way to protect everyone that was
indoors.

�If
you don�t want to participate, stay here. If you want to help with a grand
scale bit of spell work, follow me,� he said gravely as he made his way around
the people and out the front doors.

�What
are we doing Harry?� Hermione asked worriedly.

�The
only thing we can do, we�re shielding all of the people inside the shops and
such. Then we�ll put up a ward until they can all floo out,� he said shaking
his head.

�Harry,
we don�t have staves yet, we can�t do that kind of magic,� Ron said stating the
obvious.
