... dinner's ready when we are." Minerva smiled, and, the two followed the teenager to the dining room. XXX The next day, Saturday, Harry and his friends spent the morning in the practice room, with Blaise, Luna, Cedric, Fred, George, and Daphne working on their animagus transformation, while the others had separated to various tasks. Harry and Hermione were talking about the Wolfsbane Potion, and the ideas Harry had for working on a cure; nothing was really formed into anything close to a possibility that might work, and both teenagers knew that the chances of actually succeeding were slim; Ron and Neville were dueling; and Susan and Ginny were helping the newer additions on their transformation. As noontime drew closer, Harry called them all together to talk. Normally, the teenagers would all go home after lunch, since Saturday afternoons were when the adults would meet to discuss the war and any updates, and they didn't want to be overheard. Harry was always present for those meetings, and the adults listened to his ideas. When they were all seated in a circle, Harry spoke. "So, Jason said that you all have developed your Occlumency shields enough that you'll be able to hold off an attack long enough, which means I'd like to tell you a little more about the… situation. Not everything, until we feel you can hold out Dumbledore, but I think you should know some of it before this afternoon."

I know I told you about meetings going on every Saturday afternoon, which is why you all had to leave after lunch. If you like, this week, you can stay." He looked around at the group. "All of you. Sirius and Aunt Minerva said it was all right." He let out a half snort. "Seems some of them have convinced the rest that we're going to be on the front lines in this war, and we deserve to be involved." Ginny smirked. "Meaning, they managed to convince my mother, and she hates the idea, but my dad put in his two knuts and said we should be allowed to attend, so she's going along with it." Harry chuckled. "Pretty much," he agreed. Blaise smiled slightly. "You know I'm in," he said. He glanced at Daphne, and the two shared a knowing look. "Let's show the wizarding world what Slytherin is capable of." Daphne nodded, her own grin widening. "They won't know what hit them." Cedric laughed. "I'm glad you guys are on our side." He looked at Harry. "I'm totally in, Harry. Thank you for trusting me with this." Harry shrugged, a little embarrassed. "I do trust you all. I just needed to make sure no one could take the information from you without your ...
