Rosie Deaver was the first one awake that night, already knowing the troubles about what was about to hit them, she had dreamed it by the age of nine, where she had cried herself to sleep for the stranger and his family.

But, now it was seriously happening and she immediately tied her shoes and grabbed her wand carefully, not wanting to wake anyone else in the tower.

She had left a note earlier that day to Dumbledore saying that she'd get Kathy, he wouldn't know the meaning of it until now.

She snuck out of the common room and left towards the kitchens, where she'd have to be extra careful as she knew she was near Slytherin territory.

She reached the barrels and doubled check that she was at the right one before she tapped the beat to 'Helga Hufflepuff' and the entrance swing open and she quickly walked inside.

Rosie made her way to Kathy's bedroom, and creeped besides the bed, careful for the roommates before she began to shake Kathy awake.

The girl jolted up in her place before her eyes reached Rosie, and she let out a slight breath, Rosie held her finger to her lips to gesture for silence.

"We have to move quickly because of Umbridge, Arthur Weasley is hurt and Fred won't leave without you" Rosie whispered gently, looking fatigue as she stood there, "McGongal will sort out items for us"

Kathy quickly began to grab the things she needed as Rosie carefully glanced around at the other occupants, before she held her hand out to Kathy, who took it immediately.

When they had reached the room rather hastily, McGongal was sent away and Kathy was practically dragged into Fred's arms.

Rosie just stood between George and Ginny, the later clinging onto Rosie's jumper as she wept silently, George as the one to offer any comforting words she may need as Rosie rubbed the girl back softly.

Dumbledore then gathered the teenagers around the tea pit, where they quickly cling onto it so the could be transferred over to Grimmauld Road, the headquarters for the order.

As they landed, Ginny wiped her tears quickly as Rosie stabled herself on George, not being able to stand still for a moment before she gave him a small smile to say she was okay.

"There you are!" Sirius voice spoken as they first arrived, he seemed relieved to see them, but tense at the same time, he glanced over to try and find the headmaster but he is nowhere in sight, but Rosie didn't dare blink at that.

He had glanced at Rosie for any sort of information, but she shook her head, not wanting to say anything in front of the teens.

"We've got to go to st. Mungo's" Ginny shook her head slightly, before she tried to walk out of the house.

"No, you can't" Sirius had blocked her off from walking and it rose anger out of a few of the teens.

"We can go where we please" George countered, stepping away from Rosie and next to his younger sibling.

"We can't go yet, it would look suspicious if you lot showed up fifteen minutes after Arthur arrives because Harry's been seeing visions of things happening hundreds of miles from Hogwarts"

George, livid with fear and anger, squares up to Sirius's face, only to be dragged back by Rosie. "That's our father out there dying!"

"George, calm down." Rosie commanded before she gripped his face to look at her as she spoke in a softer voice. "He's going to be okay, he's in good hands"

"You don't even care! You wouldn't understand!" Fred had cut in, one of his arms still wrapped around Kathy as he spoke on anger and she tried to sink away from the scene, but Rosie kept her eyes on George who seemed to be analysing her face again.

"I was part of the first order, I lost my best friends to you-know-who" Sirius shot him a haunting look as he looked defeated again, almost like the third year when the golden trio had first witnessed him.

"Sirius has given up more than any of us would understand" Rosie spoke as she finally pulled away from George, "you forget what grounds we're standing on and everything he did to get away from that. Now sit down and wait"

Everyone slumped in defeat before they began to sit down in the different couches, most of them holding on to each other.

Rosie had sat between Ginny and George, who had both rested their heads on her shoulder as she held on to a hand each and whispered encouraging words every try once in a while.

Ron drifts off in the place next to Kathy, who sleeps flush against a fatigue Fred, who instead of sleeping-strokes her hair and watches her as she sleeps.

Harry had chosen to sit away from the group as he blamed himself on the attack and he began to think over why he was the snake whom had attacked Mr.Weasley.

"Is he going to be okay?" Ginny questioned quietly from her place next to Rosie, who squeezed her hand gently.

"I wouldn't have come here if he wasn't going to be"
