A line from Harry Potter [Addressing Dumbledore's Army]

Working hard is important. But there is something that matters even more, believing in yourself. Think of it this way; every great wizard in history has started out as nothing more than what we are now, students. If they can do it why not us?

Harry Potter
[to DA in Hog's Head]

Facing this stuff in real life is not like school. In school, if you make a mistake, you can just try again tomorrow, but out there, when you're a second away from being murdered or watching a friend die right before your eyes, you don't know what that's like.

Harry Potter
[to Voldemort]

You're the weak one. You've never known love, friendship, or real happiness. And I feel sorry for you.

Harry Potter
[to Umbridge, as she is carried away by the centaurs, after she ordered him to tell them that she means them no harm]

 : I'm sorry, professor. I must not tell lies.

Harry Potter
[Chasing Bellatrix Lestrange, who has just killed Sirius Black]

Crucio!

Harry Potter

If Voldemort's raising an army, then I want to fight.

Harry Potter
[desperately calm]

I'm the one who saw Voldemort return, I'm the one who fought him, I'm the one who saw Cedric Diggory get killed.

Harry

Hey, Big D. Beat up another ten-year-old?

Dudley

This one deserved it.

Harry

Five against one. Very brave.

Dudley

You're one to talk. Moaning in your sleep every night. At least I'm not afraid of my pillow. "Don't kill Cedric!" Who's Cedric? Your boyfriend?

Harry

Shut up.

Dudley

"He's going to kill me, Mum!" Where is your mum, Potter? She dead? Is she dead? Is she a dead Potter?

Dudley
[Harry walks straight up to Dudley and forces his wand into his throat. The weather begins to change.]

What are you doing?!

Harry

I'm not doing anything!

Harry

Where are we going? The letter said I had been expelled from Hogwarts.

Alastor "Mad-eye" Moody

Well you haven't been. Not Yet. Kingsley you take point.

Harry

But the letter said--

[Interrupting Harry]

Dumbledore has persuaded the Minister to suspend your expulsion pending a formal hearing.

Harry

A hearing?

Nymphadora Tonks

Don't worry Harry, we'll explain everything when we get back to headquarters.

Alastor "Mad-eye" Moody

Sst! Not here Nymphadora!

Nymphadora Tonks
[Her hair turns red]

Don't call me Nymphadora!

Alastor "Mad-eye" Moody
[Moody summons brooms with his wand]

Stay in formation everyone. Don't break ranks if one of us is killed!

[Harry, Ron, Hermione, Fred and George are listening in on the Order's meeting]

If anyone has a right to know it's Harry. If it wasn't for him we wouldn't even know Voldemort was back. He's not a child, Molly!

Molly Weasley

He's not a adult either. He's not James, Sirius.

He's not your son.

Molly Weasley

He's as good as. Who else has he got?

Harry
[Ginny joins them]

Hey, Ginny.

He's got me!

How touching and paternal, Black. Perhaps Potter will grow up to be a felon, just like his godfather.

Now you stay out of this, Snivellus.

Harry

Snape's part of the Order?

Ron

Git.

I don't care what Dumbledore says about your supposed reformation, I know better.

Why don't you tell him? Or are you afraid he won't take serious the word of a man hiding in his mother's house?

Ron
[Crookshanks starts to play with the Extendable Ear eventually pulling it loose]

Hermione, I hate your cat.

Bad Crookshanks!

Arthur Weasley

This is very, very peculiar. It seems that your hearing at the Minstry is to be before the entire Wizengamot.

Harry

I don't understand, what's the Ministry of Magic got against me?

Moody

Show him. He'll find out soon enough.

[Kingsley shows Harry a newspaper with the head line "The Boy who Lies?"]

He's been attacking Dumbledore as well. Fudge is using all his power, including his influence at the Daily Prophet, to smear anyone who claims the Dark Lord has returned.

Harry

Why?

Lupin

The Minister thinks Dumbledore's after his job.

Harry

But that's insane. No one in their right mind could believe that Dumbledore--

Lupin

Exactly the point, Fudge isn't in his right mind. It's been twisted and warped by fear.

Remus Lupin

Now fear makes people do terrible things, Harry. The last time Voldemort gained power he almost destroyed everything we hold most dear. Now he's returned and I'm afraid the Minister will do almost anything to avoid facing that terrifying truth.

We think Voldemort wants to build up his army again. [Everyone turns to face Sirius] Fourteen years ago he had huge numbers at his command, not only witches and wizards but all sorts of dark creatures. He's been recruiting heavily and we've been attempting to do the same. But gathering followers isn't the only thing he's interested in.
[Moody lets out a loud cough] Sirius We believe Voldemort may be after something else--

Moody

Sirius--

Something he didn't have last time.

Harry

You mean, a weapon?

Mrs Weasley
[Sirius opens his mouth to speak]

No! That's enough! He's just a boy! You tell him much more and you might as well induct him in the Order straight away.

Harry

Good, I want to join. If Voldemort's raising an army then I want to fight.

Witness for the defense, Albus Percival Wulfric...Brian...Dumbledore.

You, you got our message that the time and place of the hearing had been changed, did you?

I must have missed it. But by a happy mistake I arrived at the Ministry three hours early.

[Pause]

Charges?

The charges against the accused are as follows; that he did knowingly and in full awareness of the illegality of his actions, produced a Patronus charm in the presence of a Muggle. Do you deny producing said Patronus?

Harry

No, I--

[Interrupting Harry]

And you were aware that you were forbidden to use magic outside school while under the age of seventeen?

Harry

Yes.

Witches and wizards of the Wizengamot--

Harry

I was only doing it because of the Dementors!

Dementors? In Little Whinging?

That's quite clever. Muggles can't see Dementors, can they boy? Highly convenient.

Harry

I'm not lying, there were two of them and if I hadn't--

[Interrupting Harry]

Enough! I'm sorry to interrupt what I'm sure would have been a very well reversed story, but since you can produce no witnesses of the event--

Pardon me Minister, but as it happens we can.

Harry

Dean, Seamus, good holiday?

Dean

Alright, better than Seamus's anyway.

Seamus

My mum didn't want me to come back this year.

Harry

Why not?

Seamus

Let me see, because of you! The Daily Prophet's been saying a lot of things about you Harry. And about Dumbledore as well.

Harry

And your mum believes them?

Seamus

Well, nobody was there the night Cedric died.

Harry

Oh well I guess you should read the Prophet then like your stupid mother, it'll tell you everything you need to know!

Seamus

Don't you dare talk about my mother like that!

Harry

I'll go up against anyone that calls me a liar!

Ron
[Entering the common room]

What's going on?

Seamus

He's mad, is what's going on! Do you believe the rubbish he's coming out with about You-Know-Who?

Ron

Yeah, I do. Has anyone else got a problem with Harry?

Ron

You alright, mate?

Harry

I'm fine

Ron

Seamus was bang out of order. But he'll come through. You'll see--

Harry

I said I'm fine Ron!

Ron

Right. I'll just leave you to your thoughts then. [Ron leaves the dormitory]

Your previous instruction for this subject has been disturbingly uneven. But you will be pleased to know, from now on you will be following a carefully structured, Ministry-approved course of defensive magic. Yes?

There's nothing in here about using defensive spells?

Using spells? [laughs] Why I can't imagine why you would need to use spells in my classroom.

Ron

We're not gonna use magic?

You'll be learning about defensive spells, in a secure risk-free way.
Harry Well, what use is that? If we're gonna be attacked, it won't be risk-free.

Students will raise their hands when they speak in my class. It is the view of the Ministry that a theoretical knowledge will be sufficient to get you through your examinations, which after all is what school is all about!

Harry

And how is theory supposed to prepare us for what's out there?

There is nothing out there dear. Who would you imagine would want to attack children like yourself?

Harry

Oh, I don't know, maybe Lord Voldemort?

No let me make this quite plain. You have been told that a certain Dark Wizard is at large once again. This...is...a ...lie!

Harry

It's not a lie, I saw him! I fought him!

Detention, Mr. Potter!

Harry

So according to you Cedric Diggory dropped dead of his own accord?

Cedric Diggory's death was a tragic accident.

Harry

It was murder. Voldemort killed him. You must know this--

Enough! Enough.

Hello Harry Potter.

Harry
[Sees Luna isn't wearing shoes]

Your feet, aren't they cold?

Bit. Unfortunately all my shoes have mysteriously disappeared. I suspect Nargles are behind it.

Harry
[Referring to the Thestrals]

What are they?
Luna They're called Thestrals. They're quite gentle really but people avoid them because, they're a bit--

Harry

Different. But why can't the others see them?

They can only be seen by people who've seen death.

Harry

So you've known someone who's died then?

My mum. She was quite an extraordinary witch and she did like to experiment and one day one of her spells went badly wrong. I was nine.

Harry

I'm sorry.

Yes, it was rather horrible. I do feel very sad about it sometimes. But I still have a dad. We both believe you by the way. [When Harry doesn't respond] That He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named is back, and you fought him and the Ministry and the Prophet are conspiring against you and Dumbledore.

Harry

Thanks. It seems you're about the only ones that do.

Don't think that's true.

Harry

First we need to find a place to practice where Umbridge won't find out.

The Shrieking Shack?

Harry

That's too small.

Forbidden Forest?

Ron

Oh bloody no.

Harry? What happens if Umbridge does find out?

Who cares? I mean, sort of exciting, isn't it, breaking the rules?

Ron

Who are you, and what have you done with Hermione Granger?

You've done it Neville. You found the Room of Requirement.

Ron

The what?

It's also known as the Come-And-Go Room. The Room of Requirement only appears when a person has real need of it, and is always equipped for the seeker's needs.

Ron

So say you really needed the toilet?

Charming, Ronald, but yes, that is the general idea.

Harry

It's brilliant! It's like Hogwarts wants us to fight back.

Harry

Are you alright? I heard Umbridge gave you a rough time the other day.

Cho

Yeah I'm okay. Anyway, it's worth it. It's just, just learning all this. Makes me wonder whether if he'd known it...

Harry

Cedric, Cedric did know this stuff. He was really good. It's just, Voldemort was better.

Cho

You're a really good teacher Harry. I've never been able to stun anything before.

Cho

Mistletoe.

Harry

Probably full of Nargles, though.

Cho Chang

What are Nargles?

Harry

I have no idea.
[They kiss]

[referring to Harry's kiss]

Well, how was it?

Harry 

Wet. She was sort of...crying.

Ron

That bad at it are you?

I'm sure Harry's kissing is more than satisfactory. Cho spends half her time crying these days.

Ron

Think a bit of snogging would cheer her up.

Don't you understand how she must be feeling? ...Well, obviously she's feeling sad about Cedric, and therefore confused about liking Harry and guilty about kissing him. Conflicted because Umbridge is threatening to sack her mother from her job at the Ministry and frightened of failing her O.W.L.'s because she's so busy worrying about everything else.

Ron

One person couldn't feel all that, they'd explode!

Just because you've got the emotional range of a teaspoon doesn't mean everybody else does!

In the dream were you standing next to the victim, or looking down at the scene?

Harry

Neither, I--It was like I--Professor, will you please just tell me what's happening?

Everard! Arthur is on guard duty tonight. Make sure he's found by the right people.
Harry Sir...

Phineas! You must go to your portrait at Grimmauld Place. Tell them that Arthur Weasley is gravely injured and his children will be arriving there soon, by Portkey.

Everard

They got him, Albus. It was close but they think he'll make it. Once more the Dark Lord failed to acquire it.

Oh, thank goodness! Next we need to--

Harry

Look at me! What's happening to me?

[Entering Dumbledore's office]

You wished to see me, Headmaster?

Oh Severus. I'm afraid we can't wait. Not even till the morning. Otherwise we'll all be vulnerable.

It appears there is a connection between the Dark Lord's mind and your own. Whether he is, as yet, aware of this connection is for the moment unclear. Pray he remains ignorant.

Harry

You mean if he knows about it then, he'll be able to read my mind.

Read it, control it, unhinge it. In the past it was often the Dark Lord's pleasure to invade the minds of his victims, creating visions designed to torture them into madness. Only after extracting the last exquisite ounce of agony, only when he had them literally begging for death would he finally kill them. Used properly, the power of Occlumency will help shield you from access or influence. In these lessons I will attempt to penetrate your mind. You will attempt to resist. Prepare yourself! Legilimens!

[Series of flashbacks]

Concentrate, Potter. Focus.

Harry

This connection between me me and Voldemort, what if the reason for it is that I'm becoming more like him? I just feel so angry, all the time. And what if after everything I've been through, something's gone wrong inside me. What if I'm becoming bad?

I want you to listen to me very carefully Harry. You're not a bad person. You're a very good person, who bad things have happened to. You understand?
'[Harry nods his head] '

Besides, the world isn't split into good people and Death Eaters. We have all got both light and dark inside us. What matters is the power we choose to act on. That's who we really are.

I've been watching them for weeks and see, Dumbledore's army. Proof of what I've been telling you right from the beginning, Cornelius.

[To Dumbledore]

All your fear mongering about You-Know-Who never fooled us for a minute. We say your lies for what they were, a smokescreen for your bid to seize control of the Ministry.

Naturally.

Harry

No, professor! He had nothing to do with it, it was me!

Most noble of you Harry to shield me, but as it's been pointed out the parchment clearly says Dumbledore's Army, not Potter's. I instructed Harry to form this organization and I, and I alone, am responsible for its activities.
Cornelius Fudge Dispatch a owl to the Daily Prophet if we hurry we should make the morning edition. Dawlish, Shacklebolt! You will escort Dumbledore to Azkaban, to await trial for conspiracy and sedition...

Ah, I thought we might hit this little snag. You seem to be laboring under the delusion I am going to - what was the phrase? "Come quietly." i have no intention of doing so. i will of course escape.

Enough of this! Take him!

[Dumbledore summons his phoenix Fawkes and both explode and disappear in a ball of a flame]

well You may not like him, Minister, but you can't deny--Dumbledore's got style!

[Snape has just witnessed Harry's memory of seeing his parents in the Mirror of Erised]

Feeling sentimental?

Harry

That's private.

Not to me. And not to the Dark Lord if you don't improve. Every memory he has access to is a weapon he can use against you. You won't last two seconds if he invades your mind. You're just like your father. Lazy, arrogant.
'Harry: Don't say a word against my father.

Weak!

Harry

I'm not weak!

Then prove it! Control your emotions! Discipline your mind! Legillimens!

Harry
[Series of flashbacks, including a touching moment between Harry and Sirius]

Sirius.

I may vomit.

Potter

Stop it!

Is that what you call control?

Harry
(heavy panting)

We've been at it for hours. If I could just rest!

The Dark Lord isn't resting. You and Black, you're two of a kind, sentimental children forever whining about how bitterly unfair your lives have been, well it may have escaped your notice, but life isn't fair. Your blessed father knew that, in fact he frequently saw to it!

Harry

My father was a great man!

Your father was a swine. Legillimens!

Harry

Protego!

[Snape blocks out Harry after he accidentally sees into Snape's mind while trying to protecting himself]

Enough! Enough.

[Snape grabs Harry by his shirt]

Your lessons are at an end.

Harry

I didn't mean--

Get out.

Harry

Alert the Order if you can.

Ron

Are you mental? We'll go with you!

Harry

It's too dangerous.

When are you going to get it into your head! We're in this together!

[Catching them]

That you are!

You sent for me, Headmistress?

Snape, yes. The time has come for answers, whether they want to give them to me or not. Have you brought the Veritaserum?

I'm afraid you used up all my stores, interrogating students. The last of it on Miss Chang. Unless you wish to poison him - and I assure you I would have the greatest sympathy if you did - I cannot help you.

Harry

He's got Padfoot. He's got Padfoot at the place where it's hidden.

Padfoot? What is Padfoot? Where what is hidden? What is he talking about Snape?

No idea.

You have no business here, centaur. This is a Ministry matter.

[A centaur takes out an arrow and places in on his bow]

Lower your weapons. I warn you! Under the law, as creatures of near-human intelligence--

[A centaur fires an arrow]

Protego!

[Umbridge makes a shield and the arrow falls on thr ground]

How dare you! Filthy halfbreed! Incarcerous!

[Umbridge casts a spell causing a centaur to be wrapped in a rope and fall to the ground]

Please, please stop it! Please

Enough! I will have order!

[Suddenly Umbridge is picked up by Grawp. The centaurs charge] [To Grawp]

You animals! Do you know who I am?!!

[To the centaurs]

It's not his fault, he doesn't understand!
[Grawp get's hit by an arrow and drops Umbridge. The centaurs pick her up.] Umbridge': Potter, do something! Tell them I mean no harm!

Harry

I'm sorry, Professor. I must not tell lies.

[Running up with Harry to meet Ginny, Ron, Neville and Luna]

How did you get away?

Puking Pastilles, it wasn't pretty.

Ron

I told them I was hungry and wanted some sweets. Of course they told me to bugger off and ate them all themselves.

[Surprised]

That was clever, Ron!

Ron

It's been known to happen.

It was brilliant. So how are we get in London?

Harry

Look, it's not that I don't appreciate everything you've done, all of you. But, I've got you into enough trouble as it is.

Dumbledore's Army was supposed to be about doing something real. Or was all that just words to you?

Ron

Maybe you don't have to do this all by yourself mate.

Harry

So how are we going to get to London?

We fly, of course.

Harry

Where's Sirius?

You know, you really should learn to tell the difference between dreams and reality. You only saw what the Dark Lord wanted you to see. Now hand me the prophecy.

Harry

You do anything to us and I'll break it.

[laughs]

He knows how to play! Itty bitty baby Potter!

Bellatrix Lestrange.

Neville Longbottom is it? How's mum and dad?

Better [points wand] now they're about to be avenged.
Lucius Malfoy [slowly raises wand]: Now let's everybody just calm down, shall we?

All we want is that prophecy.

Harry

Why did Voldemort need me to come and get this?

You dare speak his name? You filthy half-blood!

It's alright, he's just a curious lad aren't you? Prophecies can only be retrieved by those about whom they are made. Which is lucky for you, really. [whispers] Haven't you always wondered what was the reason for the connection between you and the Dark lord? Why he was unable to kill you, when you were just an infant? Don't you want to know the secret of you scar? All the answers are there, Potter, in your hand. All you have to do, is give it to me, and I can show you everything.

Harry
[The Death Eaters surround Harry's group]

I waited 14 years.

I know.

Harry

Guess I can wait a little longer. Now!

Harry, Ron, Neville & Ginny

Stupefy!

Stupefy!

Now listen to me. I want you to take the others and get out of here.

Harry

What? No. I'm staying with you--

You've done beautifully. Now let me take it from here.

[Laughing]

I killed Sirius Black! You coming to get me?

Harry

Crucio!

[Bellatrix falls to the ground] [Inside Harry's head]

You've got to mean it Harry. She killed him, she deserves it. You know the spell, Harry.

[Voldemort appears behind Harry]

Do it!

[Harry turns around and is easily disarmed by Voldemort]

So weak!

Harry
[While being possessed by Voldemort]

You, you've lost old man.

Harry.

So weak, so vulnerable! Look at me!

Harry, it isn't how you are alike. It's how you are not!

[Pause]

Harry.

Harry
[As Harry sees his friends enter the Atrium, he remembers the happy times he spent with them]

You're the weak one, and you'll never know love or friendship. And I feel sorry for you.

[Voldemort is forced out of Harry's body]

You're a fool, Harry Potter. And you will lose everything.

I know how you feel Harry.

Harry

No you don't. It's my fault.

No the fault is mine! I knew it was only a matter of time before Voldemort made the connection between you. I thought by distancing myself from you, as I have done all year, he'd be less tempted and therefore you might be more protected.

Harry

The prophecy said: neither one can live for the other one survives. It means one of us has gonna have to kill the other...in the end?

Yes.

Harry

Why didn't you tell me?

For the same reason you tried to save Sirius. For the same reason your friends saved you. After all these years, after all you suffered, I didn't want to cause you any more pain. I cared too much about you.

Harry

How come you're not at the feast?

Lost all my possessions. Apparently people have been hiding them.

Harry

That's awful.

Oh, it's all good fun. But as it's the last night, I really do need them back.

Harry

Do you want any help finding them?

I'm sorry about your godfather, Harry.

Harry
[Pause]

Are you sure you don't want any help looking?

That's alright. Anyway, my mum always said, things we lose have a way of coming back to us in the end... [They see shoes hanging at the ceiling] if not always in the way we expect. Think I'll just go have some pudding.

Harry
[Last lines]

I've been thinking about something Dumbledore said to me.

What's that?

Harry

That even though we got a fight ahead of us, we've got one thing that Voldemort doesn't have.

Ron

Yeah?

Harry

Something worth fighting for.

Harry

So, what is this place?

Ron

It's headquarters.

For the Order of the Phoenix. It's a secret society. Dumbledore formed it back when they first fought You-Know-Who.

Harry
[sarcastically, but calm]

Couldn't put any of this in a letter, I suppose? I've gone all summer without a scrap of news.

[unfolds a photo of the original Order of the Phoenix and shows it to Harry]

Original Order of the Phoenix. Marlene McKinnon. She was killed two weeks after this was taken. Voldemort wiped out her entire family. Frank and Alice Longbottom.

Harry

Neville's parents.

They suffered a fate worse than death, if you ask me. It's been 14 years. And still a day doesn't go by I don't miss your dad.

Draco
[approaching Harry]

I'm surprised the Ministry's still letting you walk around free, Potter. Better enjoy it while you can. I expect there's a cell in Azkaban with your name on it! [Harry angrily tries to lunge at him but Ron holds him back; leaves, to Crabbe and Goyle] What'd I tell you? Complete nutter!

Harry
[enraged]

JUST STAY AWAY FROM ME!

Ron

It's only Malfoy. What'd you expect?

Harry
[sees a strange reptilian-like thestral]

What is it?

Ron

What's what?

Harry

That. Pulling the carriage.

Nothing's pulling the carriage, Harry. It's pulling itself like always.

[Harry walks around the carriage, where Luna is already seated]

You're not going mad. [lowers her magazine, The Quibbler, which she has been reading upside down] I see them too. You're just as sane as I am.

What's wrong with your hand?

Harry

Nothing. [shows her his right hand]

Your other hand. [grabs his left arm, and sees his scars from Umbridge's detention] [horrified] You've got to tell Dumbledore!

Harry

No. Dumbledore's got enough on his mind right now. Anyway, I don't want to give Umbridge the satisfaction.

Ron

Bloody hell, Harry, the woman's torturing you! If the parents knew about this-!

Harry

Yeah, well, I haven't got any of those, have I, Ron?

Harry, you've got to report this. It's perfectly simple - you're being-

Harry

No, it's not. Hermione, whatever this, it's not simple. You don't understand.

[frustrated]

Then help us to.

Trelawney
[The students are watching Umbridge fire Trelawney] [in tears]

Sixteen years I've lived and taught here. Hogwarts is my home. You can't do this.

[shows the Order of Dismissal to Trelawney with faux sympathy]

Actually, I can. [McGonagall arrives and tries to comfort Trelawney] [to McGonagall] Something you'd like to say, dear?

McGonagall

Oh, there are several things I would like to say!

[arrives]

Professor McGonagall, might I ask you to escort Sybil back inside?

McGonagall
[to Trelawney]

Sybil, dear, this way...

Trelawney
[shakes Dumbledore's hand]

Oh, thank you! Thank you!

Dumbledore, may I remind you that under the terms of Educational Decree #23, as enacted by the Minister...

[warningly]

You have the right to dismiss my teachers. You do not, however, have the authority to banish them from the grounds - That power remains with the headmaster.

For now.

[turns around and sternly addresses the watching students]

Don't you all have studying to do?

Harry
[Dumbledore wearily walks away, so do the students] [while Dumbledore ignores him]

Professor! Professor! Professor Dumbledore! Professor! Professor Dumbledore! [Harry goes to see Dumbledore has vanished (Presumably disapparated). Harry stands in the empty entrance hall.]

[talking to Harry alone]

Fourteen years ago, a Death Eater named Bellatrix Lestrange used the Cruciatus Curse on my parents. She tortured them for information, but they never gave in. I'm quite proud to be their son. But I'm not sure I'm ready for everyone to know just yet.

Harry

We're gonna make them proud, Neville. That's a promise.

Ron
[After Umbridge discovers and puts an end to "Dumbledore's Army"]

You did everything you could. No one could win against that old hag.

Even Dumbledore didn't see this coming. Harry, if it's anyone's fault, it's ours.

Ron

Yeah, we talked you into it...

Harry

Yeah, but I agreed. I tried so hard to help, and all it's done is made things worse. Anyway, it doesn't matter anymore, because I don't want to play anymore. All it does is make you care too much - The more you care, the more you have to lose. Maybe, it's just best to...

To what?

Harry

To go it alone.

Harry
[The trio enter Umbridge's office preparing to use the Floo Network]

Alohomora. [unlocks the door with his wand; to Ron and Hermione] Alert the Order if you can.

Ron

Are you mental? We're going with you!

Harry

It's too dangerous.

When are you going to get it into your head? We're in this together!

[Catching them]

That… you… are.

[a short time later…] [dragging Neville in]

Caught this one tryna help the Weasley girl.

[bends down to Harry, as he's tied up to a chair]

You were going to Dumbledore, weren't you?

Harry

No.

[viciously slaps him in the face]

Liar.

You sent for me, Headmistress?

Snape, yes. The time has come for answers, whether they want to give them to me or not. Have you brought the Veritaserum?

I'm afraid you used up all my stores, interrogating students. The last of it on Ms. Chang. Unless you wish to poison him - and I assure you I would have the greatest sympathy if you did - I cannot help you. [turns to leave]

Harry
[to Snape; desperately]

He's got Padfoot. He's got Padfoot at the place where it's hidden.

Padfoot? What is Padfoot? Where what is hidden? What is he talking about, Snape?

[Pause for effect]

No idea. [leaves without another word]

Very well. You give me no choice, Potter. As this is a matter of Ministry Security, you leave me with... no other alternative. The Cruiciatus Curse ought to loosen your tongue.

That's illegal.

[Putting a picture of Fudge face down]

What Cornelius doesn't know won't hurt him. [her pictures of kittens mewl in disapproval; prepares to curse Harry]

Tell her, Harry!

Tell me what?

Well, if you won't tell her where it is, I will.

Where what is?

Dumbledore's secret weapon.

[Dumbledore's Army flies away from Hogwarts on Thestrals. They flap their wings as they travel to London to the Ministry of Magic. Thunder crashes. Dumbledore's Army arrives at the Ministry of Magic and they run to an elevator. The elevator dings and the lift opens.]

Woman's Voice: Department of Mysteries.

Harry
[The camera shows the pathway to the Department of Mysteries.]

This is it. [Dumbledore's Army walks into the Department of Mysteries. They look inside. A low rumble sounds. They turn around to see the noise. They turn back. as he walks] 92, 93 [he pants] 94, 95. [he looks at the floor, echoing] It should be here.
Neville: [looking at the glass sphere] Harry. It's got your name on it.

Trelawney
[The camera shows in on the glass sphere. Dumbledore's Army looks at it. They exhale as Harry turns around and look back. A faint tinkle is heard. Harry takes the glass sphere.]

The one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord approaches. And the Dark Lord shall mark him as his equal, but he shall have power the Dark Lord knows not. [Harry looks at it. Dumbledore's Army stares at him.] For neither can live while the other survives.

[A low, eerie whoosh sounds.]

Harry!

Harry
[Harry turns around and walks back to the Army. Death Eaters approach. Lucius approaches Dumbledore's Army.]

Where's Sirius?

You know, you really should learn to tell the difference between dreams... [makes his mask melt away] and reality. You only saw what the Dark Lord wanted you to see. Now hand me the prophecy.

Harry

You do anything to us, I'll break it.

[Bellatrix laughing]

He knows how to play! Itty, bitty, baby, Potter!

Bellatrix Lestrange.

Neville Longbottom, is it? How's mum and dad?

Better, now they're about to be avenged! [points wand at her; Bellatrix points hers back at him]

Let's everybody just... calm down, shall we? All we want is that prophecy.

Harry

Why did Voldemort need me to come and get this?

[whispers]

You dare speak his name? You filthy half-blood!

It's all right, he's just a curious lad, aren't you? Prophecies can only be retrieved by those about whom they are made. Which is lucky for you, really. Haven't you always wondered what was the reason for the connection between you and the Dark Lord, hmm? Why he was unable to kill you, when you were just an infant? Don't you want to know the secret of your scar? All the answers are there, Potter, in your hand. All you have to do is give it to me, and I can show you everything.

Harry
[The Death Eaters surround Harry's group] [Death Eaters approach slowly. Dumbledore's Army turns around as Death Eaters approach them.]

I've waited fourteen years.

[in mock sympathy]

I know.

Harry

I guess I can wait a little longer. Now!

Harry, Ron, Neville, Ginny, Hermione, and Luna

Stupefy!

[The Death Eaters lunge backwards. Dumbledore's Army runs as Lucius shows a hand for the prophecy. They run away from Lucius. Luna sees a Death Eater and falls to the ground.]

Levicorpus!

[The Death Eater goes backwards. Harry and Ron run through the aisles.]

Petrificus Totalus!

Well done, Neville!

Harry
[Hermione gasps] [Neville and Luna run away from the Death Eater lying on the floor. Hermione, Ron and Harry see Death Eaters approach.]

Stupefy.

[The Death Eater goes backwards.]

Stupefy!

Ron
[trembling]

Stupefy!

Harry
[The Death Eater deflects the spell. A Death Eater comes close to Harry. Death Eaters comes close as Hermione casts a spell. Glass spheres start to fall down, eventually hitting the Death Eater.]

Stupefy!

[Death Eater goes away. Hermione squeals as Dumbledore's Army as a figure.] [Ginny screams, Neville and Ron grunt] [all panting]

Reducto!

Harry
[The spell hits the figure. Glass starts to tinkle as spheres start falling. As it comes close, Neville takes Luna.]

Get back to the door!
[all shouting] [all grunt] [Dumbledore's Army start to run as spheres start to fall behind them. They turn a corner as spheres continue to fall, eventually reaching the exit. Shelves begin to fall. They fall out of the Department of Mysteries. The door to the Department of Mysteries closes as they fall to the ground. A spell keeps them in air before they hit the ground. Harry looks at the glass sphere. Dumbledore's Army stand to their feet.]

Ron

Department of Mysteries. They had that bit right, didn't they?

Harry
[Eerie voices whispers. Dumbledore's Army looks at the veil.]

The voices. Can you tell what they're saying?

There aren't any voices, Harry. Let's get out of here.

I hear them too.

[They walk close to the veil.]

Harry, it's just an empty archway. [The whispering voices grow louder.] Please, Harry.

Harry

Get behind me!

C-Come on!

[all grunting] [Hermione whimpering] [All of Harry's friends but him are being held by Death Eaters] [Lucius chuckling]

Did you actually believe, or were you truly naive enough to think that children stood a chance, against us? I'll make this simple for you, Potter. Give me the prophecy now, or watch your friends die.

Don't give it to him, Harry!

Shh!

[Harry hesitates but hands over the prophecy. Lucius holds it up and a white light distracts them.]

Get away from my godson.
[Lucius grunts] [Death Eater grunting] [He punches Lucius as more members arrive. Death Eaters fly away. The sphere breaks. Harry's friends are rescued. A spell hits the dais. He deflects it. The battle ensures. Sirius takes Harry to a corner away from the spell. Dumbledore's Army separate.] Now, listen to me, I want you to take the others and get out of here.
