    ... but as soon as she had said that Harry was upset, they all insisted on joining her. They watched from the doorway while Harry turned seven dummies to dust within the span of three minutes. When the room was devoid of opponents, Harry straightened up from his fighter's crouch, to the sound of applause. He looked over and blushed slightly to see his fellow Gryffindors in the entrance, watching him. They all moved in and closed the door. Ginny raised an eyebrow. "What's this about, Harry? What did Dumbledore say?" Harry growled slightly, his eyes hardening. "He knew." They all looked confused. "What do you mean?" Hermione asked, mentally asking the room to provide sofas for them to sit, which they all did a moment later. Harry grit his teeth. "He tried to tell me that there were things only he knew, so only he could help me fulfill that damn prophecy. Don't you see it? He knew about the horcruxes.
