A Stark Witch

Umbridge

"Harry." I greeted
"Thought we heard your dulcet tones." George said
"Don't bottle it up, though, mate. Let it out." Fred added putting an arm around my waist

"If you're all done shouting" I said
"Do you wanna hear something a little more interesting?" Fred finished for me

We all stood around the barrister huddled around the twins extendable ear listening loudly into the Order meeting. My back pressed to my boyfriends chest
"If anyone has a right to know, it's Harry. If it wasn't for Harry... we wouldn't even know Voldemort was back. He's not a child, Molly." I heard my dad and smiled softly
"But he's not an adult either. He's not James, Sirius." Molly scolded
"Well, he's not your son." Dad retorted
"He's as good as. Who else has he got?" Molly asked making me looking over at the boy I saw as a cousin

"Hey, Ginny." Harry greeted the girl as she joined us

"He's got me. And Hailey" Dad said
"How touchingly paternal, Black. Perhaps Potter will grow up to be a felon, just like his godfather." Snape said and I scowled
"Now, you stay out of this, Snivellus." Dad groaned

"Snape's part of the Order?" Harry asked and I nodded
"Git" Ron grumbled

"about your supposed reformation. I know better. So why don't you tell him" said

Just as things were getting informative Crookshanks decided to pounce on the ear at the bottom
"Get off it." I tried to grab the line of the ear
"Quick. Get it up." George said
"Crookshanks. Stop it." Hermione whisper shouted
"Get off, you bloody cat." Fred whisper shouted too
"Crookshanks. Leave it alone." Hermione kept trying
"Get it up." I gave the twins a look

I tried to use my powers to detach the cat but it only made it worse

"Hermione, I hate your cat." Ron said once the ear had been stolen
"Bad Crookshanks." Hermione shouted down

"Well, we'll be eating down in the kitchen." Molly called up to us and we hid

"See ya in a minute" Fred quickly pecked my cheek as he and his twin flicked their wands apparating downstairs
"Just because you're allowed to use magic now... does not mean you have to whip your wands out for everything." Molly shouted at them

I chuckled following them into the kitchen

"Hi dad" I smiled at my dad as I walked around him gently touching his shoulder
"Hi sweetheart" he smiled back

I sat between the twins and happily chomped on my dinner. I had to elbow Fred from glaring at the cat

"This is very, very peculiar. It seems your hearing in the Ministry is to be before the entire Wizengamot." Moony said
"I don't understand. What has the Ministry of Magic got against me?" Harry asked confused
"Show him. He'll find out soon enough." Moody nodded

Moony handed Harry the daily prophet
"He's been attacking Dumbledore as well. Fudge is using all his power, including his influence at the Daily Prophet... to smear anyone who claims the Dark Lord has returned." He explained
"Why?" Harry asked
"He thinks Dumbledore's after his job." Moony shrugged

"No one in their right mind could believe that..." Harry went to say
"Exactly the point. Fudge isn't in his right mind. It's been twisted and warped by fear. Now, fear makes people do terrible things, Harry. The last time Voldemort gained power... he almost destroyed everything we hold most dear. Now he's returned, and I'm afraid the minister will do almost anything... to avoid facing that terrifying truth." Remus told him

"We think Voldemort wants to build up his army again. Fourteen years ago, he had huge numbers at his command. And not just witches and wizards, but all manner of dark creatures. He's been recruiting heavily, and we've been attempting to do the same. But gathering followers isn't the only thing he's interested in. We believe... Voldemort may be after something." Dad said
This was the first I was hearing of it as my head snapped up
