... his plan was. "We'll get all the younger students in their dorms, and anyone fifth year and up who wants to fight, will defend the castle." Snape left them as they entered the Great Hall, telling them that he would inform the other professors of the situation. Harry and Ginny watched as the majority of the school trickled into the Hall over the next ten minutes. Their friends all joined them at the head of the room, while the rest of the DA congregated in front of them. When it seemed like everyone was there, Harry took a deep breath, and told them what was going on. When he was finished, there was a shocked silence for a moment, before Katie asked in a steely voice, "What are we going to do?" Harry looked at the group in front of him, and nodded determinedly. "We fight." _ _ _ Chapter 19 Disclaimer: not mine Nods of agreement met Harry's simple declaration, and the sixth year quickly began to outline their plan.

Hermione and Ron will stay here with a group to defend the Entrance Hall, Blaise and Daphne will take a group down to the dungeons, and Ginny and I will take a final group to Gryffindor tower. Let's divide up now into even groups around each leader." There was a flurry of movement as the students all picked a group. When they were all situated, Harry made a few adjustments, switching some of them to a different group if he thought they would be better somewhere else. There were a few classmates he knew had excellent aim, and thought would be more beneficial in one of the towers, rather than the dungeons or Entrance Hall. Once they were all ready, Harry looked at his friends, and pulled a shrunken package out of his pocket, and enlarged it. "Fred and George sent me this, this afternoon," he explained. He handed out what looked like little flesh-colored balls. "These are transmitters," he said. "Put them in your ear, and we should be able to communicate despite the different locations in the castle." They all put the devices in their ears, marveling at the genius of the twins. "These are similar to some of the muggle communication devices," Hermione commented. Harry nodded, smiling. "Fred and ...
