[HP]Dark Night Lone Star

"They actually made that old bat the headmaster!"

After the sorting ceremony, Luna, Neville and Ginny met in the DA practice room of the Room of Requirement as agreed.As soon as Fang entered the room, Ginny immediately yelled loudly with an angry face.

"I'm afraid the situation couldn't be worse. The Carlo brothers and sisters are notorious Death Eaters. At the end of last school year, Deng—they were there that night, Merlin!" Neville sat down on a soft cushion and sighed. .

Only Luna remained calm: "I think the situation will get worse, my dad said "Daily Prophet"—" Noticing the surprised eyes of the two friends, she explained patiently: "Although that It's all bullshit, but it's necessary to know the 'official' message in this particular time, isn't it? Anyway, it says that wizards and students are required to register their personal information, which means they will put Muggle Wizards of birth are under control, and the compulsory admission to Hogwarts proves that they want to control the entire British wizarding world by controlling young wizards." Finally, she concluded her argument with a sentence: "Hogwarts Cici has become the front line."

Ginny nodded in agreement, and then said in a clear and firm voice: "We have to do something. Since Harry and the others are no longer in this school, we have to take over the DA. I can't accept it if we don't do anything." It's terrible to watch the whole school fall into Voldemort's hands!"

Neville gasped, staring at Ginny with shock written in his eyes: "Ginny, you said the name of the mysterious man!"

Ginny glanced at him impatiently, folded her arms and responded with stern words: "So what? Harry and Hermione can say it, why can't I? In the end, we are so afraid of Voldemort, isn't it because we were so afraid of Voldemort when we were young?" A fear rooted in us by our parents and family? None of us have actually seen Voldemort's reign of terror, have we?"

"The fear of the unknown is the biggest obstacle to exploration and progress." Luna looked at her friend appreciatively. In just one summer vacation, she suddenly became mature. A far more difficult path than their current situation, and Ginny has grown stronger to follow in his footsteps.

The words of the two girls seemed to have moved Neville, and when he spoke again, his tone became more in line with the characteristics of his academy: "I agree, call the DA again, no matter how many people are willing to come back, even if there are only three of us in the end One, I will never give up."

It was late at night, and Luna slipped out of Ravenclaw's common room wearing an invisibility cloak as scheduled. This invisibility cloak was bought when she and her father traveled to Sweden, although it can only maintain the invisibility effect for one hour It would take nearly a whole day to recover the mana, but it was enough for Luna.Luckily the Death Eaters hadn't found the hidden compartment of her suitcase.

She walked cautiously down the dimly lit corridor, her footsteps being too faint to attract the attention of Death Eaters or Administrator Filch, thanks to the sip of the Elixir she had taken in advance.

She found the corridor leading to the underground classroom with ease, and entered the current headmaster's former office with Sunlight's password, where Severus Snape had obviously been waiting for a long time.

They'd been using this signal way back in the previous school year - when Luna wasn't wearing a carrot earring, it was a sign that she wanted to come to Snape's office, and when Snape's robe pocket showed a feather When the pen is written, it means that Luna can come over.

"Professor, good evening." Luna pulled off the invisibility cloak, revealing a pale face. From her point of view, Snape was also very nervous. He just pursed his lips and nodded slightly, without saying anything.

After the short greeting, she immediately got to the point: "I think we must try to avoid such meetings this semester, so I came here to tell you how to contact me." She took out two silver coins from her pocket But, spread it out in the palm of my hand and handed it to Snape, and then continued: "I can't do it as perfectly as Hermione, but the basic functions are still there, if you need to see me, please use the wand to modify it Time, I'll feel it."

Snape took his coin, looked at it carefully, and asked at the same time: "This is your - Dumbledore's Army's means of communication?"

Luna nodded, and then eagerly continued her topic. Her voice was still clear, but it contained a strong and firm force: "We have decided to act. DA cannot be in this situation at Hogwarts. Remaining silent, such an action may not have much effect, but Neville, Ginny and I agree that we need to be as united as possible while we are alone - this does not mean that we need you to distract us to protect us , even though we have been treated cruelly, I still hope that you can stand firm and not expose it. No matter how recklessly the Death Eaters do, they will not kill underage pure-blood wizards. We think this will make the Dark Lord very sad. unhappy."

Snape was silent, he looked at Luna's big eyes that seemed to be in astonishment but seemed very wise all the time, and felt a heavy pain in his heart.There was an urge to hug the petite girl in front of him, but he knew it was not wise.

"I understand, but you have to assure me that if there is any problem, you all have to seek help from your headmaster without hesitation. I believe they will do their best to protect you." Snape looked directly at Luna in the candlelight There was a moment of hesitation in his pupils, which were dyed bright golden under the reflection, but soon returned to their usual calmness.

With an almost unreal smile on Luna Lovegood's face, she said, "I promise."

A week after school started, when they gathered again in the Room of Requirement, the membership had tripled. In addition to Neville, Ginny, and Luna, there were also Seamus Finnigan, Lavender Brown, Petty The Ernie sisters, Ernie McMillan and Michael Corner.

"I'm glad that you are all here. In such a dangerous time when Hogwarts is in the water, you are still willing to answer the call of Dumbledore's Army and do something for our beloved school." Way stood in the middle of the Room of Requirement, now the undisputed leader, and the line on his face that Amycus Carlo's scar became a medal of honor.

"Well said, brother!" Seamus was the first to respond to his voice, in fact he was also the first returning DA member.

Neville nodded to him, with a slightly shy expression on his face, but quickly recovered, and continued: "I think you are all curious now, what else can we do now? I I hope Ginny Weasley can tell us all for me." After he finished speaking, he sat down, and Ginny beside him stood up, with a fiery and determined look on her face, and began her speech.

"Over the past week, I think everyone has experienced the Defense Against the Dark Arts lessons brought by our Professor Caro—" she spoke heavily, with undisguised contempt. "

A look of disgust similar to Ginny's appeared on everyone's faces, and this sympathy made them connect more intimately.

"We would never take a class like this, the loathsome and despicable class that takes the pleasure of applying the Dark Arts to others, so we have our own Defense Against the Dark Arts class - our DA was created out of a similar situation in the first place , and now it can return to its original intention." Ginny looked around at the childish faces of all the members in the room, and continued, "In addition, we must unite to fight against the Carlo brothers and sisters and other Death Eaters, no matter what they want to do, we They have to make life difficult and make them realize that Hogwarts doesn't belong to them, let alone the Dark Lord. We need to help innocent students who are persecuted, we have lost our Muggle-born brothers and sisters , this anger is bound to be our motivation."

Almost all the students nodded in agreement with Ginny's words. She smiled, then looked at Luna who was sitting on the other side of Neville, and said, "Finally, Luna also has something to tell everyone. I hope that by now No one will look down on Luna because of her title of 'crazy girl', and we will become the closest partners." She sat down after finishing speaking.

The named Luna stood up instead of her. She looked dazed as if she accidentally broke into the party while half asleep, and said in a light tone: "Actually, I don't have much information to share with you. I want to say that I hope everyone can seriously consider what we are going to face. Hogwarts is our battlefield, but this does not mean that we have to abandon everything and fight desperately,'extraordinary ingenuity is the greatest wealth', and it is not a disgrace to deal cunningly with the enemy, and turn them round. Also, do not hesitate to turn to your abbots in times of danger and difficulty, for we can trust them as they will Trust us that way." She paused for a moment, without looking at anyone, as if casually mentioned: "When the Room of Requirement is occupied, no one else can use it unless they agree with what we want, here is our The last stronghold, in the end, it is very likely that some of us—or all of us will have to stay here, so I hope everyone can put forward any constructive suggestions about protecting this place.” She After speaking, he sat down gently on the spot.

The whole room fell into silence. After a while, Lavender Brown looked around at the members of DA with shining eyes, and then summoned up the courage to speak: "Actually, I have an idea—"

The long night goes on, and the dawn is far, far away...
