Number 12, Grimmauld Place

Cho: "Yep," I said as we exited the room and hurried down the creaking stairs.

Hermione: I followed behind Cho closely, and looked around for whoever it was who'd come downstairs already.

Cho: I walked around a corner hearing the faintest shift of movement. It sounded like someone was nervous about our presence as well having heard our creaking. I reached a door that was likely the source of the noise we'd been hearing. I hadn't been in this part of the house yet. My hand moved toward the knob, but I looked back at Hermione hesitantly for assurance.

Hermione: I stopped behind Cho as she stopped outside a door, looking hesitant. "I think it should be alright to go in there." I told her.

Cho: "Alright..." I opened the door and stepped in.

I turned around as I heard the door open and I pointed my wand at the intruder.

Cho: I took a sigh of relief. I was beginning to fear for the worse. "Thank God it's you Harry..."

Hermione: "We thought it might be Kreacher," I nodded walking in after Cho.

I lowered my wand as they walked into the room, "No. I haven't seen him."

Hermione: "We weren't looking for him anyway. We were wondering who was up already." I told him. "Are you alright? You look... more miserable than usual,"

I raised an eyebrow at her, "Have I looked miserable?"

Hermione: I nodded. "A little, yes,"

"And now I look more miserable? Good to know."

Hermione: "Well, you have reason..." I sighed. "Is there anything we can do to help?"

Cho: I nodded in agreement. "You know we have your back Harry."

I looked at them both gratefully, "No. It'll be fine once this is all over with." I hope..

Hermione: I nodded. "When are you and Sirius leaving?"

I shrugged, "I haven't seen Sirius this morning."

Hermione: "He's probably still asleep," I shrugged.

Sirius: I had pulled off the Invisiblity cloak that I had borrowed without permission from Harry a few minutes before, and when I had pulled it off, I had sat down in a chair. They hadn't noticed me yet.

Harry: "Probably."

Hermione: I quickly looked around the room, making a double take when I spotted Sirius sitting with a smug smile on his face, across the room from us. I put my hand over my mouth to suppress a yelp of surprise. "How did you get there without us noticing?" I asked him.

Sirius: I was glad that I had put the invisibility cloak in my pocket. "I've been here the whole time."

Hermione: "I'm so sure," I shook my head.

Sirius: "I was in that corner." I pointed to the corner where none of them would have been able to see me and where I could have gotten to where I was now without anyone noticing.

Hermione: "Alright," I sighed. "So, I assume you heard my question then?"
