OotP Chapter 18 - Dumbledore's Army
After a Charms lesson rife with paranoia and some animal abuse, theres finally some good news - the Quidditch team is to be reformed. Hermione however isn't paying attention, but trying to be the voice of caution, worried by Sirius' abundant approval.
That evening, the team spend an hour valiantly fighting through rain and mud (and the twins, through the pain of self inflicted pus filled boils. Bright lads, those.) before even Angelina calls it quits. They're barely off the field, when Harry's scar acts up.
Some concentrating brings Harry quite a series of visions and sensations - from Voldemort. Harry brushes away Ron;s advice that he tell someone, and sets to studying instead, but falls asleep, into the disturbing dream of the closed doorway.
He is awakened by Dobby - who has all of Hermione's hats - who tells Harry about the room of requirment - ideall (well, naturally) for the DA meetings. Everyone is impressed when they show up there, and Harry starts the lesson - when Hermione channels Max Weber, and declares elections, vesting in Harry formal authority. (Dumbledore's Army earns it's name in the same stand.)
Things from that point on go quite well, Harry proving a good teacher, and the students enthusiastic. The enxt meeting is decideed on - but what Harry is thinking of is Cho...
