Chapter 108 - choices and proposition

Harry's POV

It didn't take more then 10 minutes to put the rat animagus near the Gryffindor tower after obliviating him and return to the room of requirements, and by the time he arrived near the room he felt he had to talk with Luna about the only three courses of actions which made sense after eliminating the idiotic ones, and ask for her opinion on which path should they take going forward, yes, them, they were in this together as she chose to join in.

1) Work with Dumbledore without fully trusting him with anyone's life which are important to them. Going in that direction means working with someone who could be an enemy or at least someone who would sacrifice them in a heartbeat, yet they would have more information, another downside is that for them to make the headmaster to trust them without any binding magic would be almost impossible, making them unable to change options later. This option was one he was almost completely against as the benefits are minimal, yet needed to be said, if only to put everything in the open.

2) Creating a third side to the war. This would mean more work as they would need to find more people to work with, gather information on the Death Eaters and the order of Phoenix, and, of course train those people. It would pretty much mean the end of Harry's studies about anything not war related, at least for the short while, yet the upsides are total trust with everyone he works with, the ability to change the way this war works, and probably save the life of a lot of people.

3) Stand on the sideway as they watch the two sides tire each other before taking both sides out, doing so would let Harry continue his studies as he did till now, plus make sure there won't be any slip-ups about their knowledge, not to mention that Dumbledore would probably die on Harry's sixth year, taking a veritable that would probably try to kill Harry at some point, off the table. Yet, it would mean having a bigger chance the few people he cares about, and the people Luna cares about in greater risk of death, not to mention that the reason he got his second chance in life is to fulfill the prophecy which meant he would have to be the one to kill Voldemort.

Yet, as he walked into the ROR Luna wasn't alone, instead, there were two familiar redheads talking with her.

"Hey Harry, how was your night, sleeping with other people in the same room like us, the common folks."

Rolling his eyes, he answered to him. "Let it go George, it wouldn't matter if you and Fred had private rooms as A) you would probably just move the bed to the other one's room and B) your grades wouldn't let you keep the room. Anyhow, what are you doing here? Don't you have quidditch practice?"

"Nope, all club activities were canceled after the Black fiasco for today." George answered making Harry wince "Please don't call it the Black fiasco, it sounds super racist."

"What's racist?" Fred asked "Sound pretty cool to me, like a man who participates in a lot of broom races, maybe even having it as a job is racist."

"No," Harry said signing, he had taken upon himself to teach the twins a little bit of muggle knowledge so he wouldn't have to cringe and have the feeling he talks with mentally challenged people whenever they talked about muggle stuff like electricity or about stuff like that. "it's the equivalent of being a blood supremacist, only instead of whether or not you have a magical ancestry, it's about your nationality and skin color, like looking down on the Patil twins or Su Li because of their skin color or looking down on the French because they are not from England."

"Oh," the twins looked at one another and said "oops" before laughing "look at us, we are practically redheaded Malfoy!"

'Well, you can't truly change the mentally challenged."

"So," he said after they calmed down "what are you working on right now?"

"Well, we finished our animagus transformations," George said

"Yes, you are lookin' right now on one good looking, awesome fully controlled Meerkat animagus by the name of Timon, and a little bit dumb, yet also fully controlled parrot animagus by the name of Lago."

Yes, as soon as they told me their animagus transformation I showed them Aladdin and the lion king, making them and Luna officially the first pure-blooded wizards and witch to become Disney fans.

"At least I can fly, not to mention talk in my form."

"Yes, you probably want a cracker."

"If you won't stop arguing about that I would have Harry make me a lightsaber before using it to make you!" Luna said "Sorry Harry, but this argument started even before you came."

So he might have also showed them Star Wars, but it was only for educational purposes, as he needed inspiration for his AI project, he swears.

"Anyway," George said after raising his hands in mock surrender "right now we are perfecting our sicandies, yet we don't have much money to do more after that, so probably sell them to earn some."

"Well, I might have a proposal for that, how about making me a partner, and in exchange of 1/3 of all future profits I would pay you 500 Galleons and of course, help creating part of the products, the only two things you would have to promise not to do are to keep my involvement secret, and no matter what, not sell any variation of love potion, and I mean any!"

The twins looked at one another, and with only a twitch of their head, it felt like they had completed an entire conversation.

"We would agree, but only if you told us what is the secret we keep forgetting." Fred said.

"Yes, we might sometimes act dumb, but we know something ain't right, it feels like every time we think about something about you we keep forgetting, and when we researched it, every time we reached advance magic we forgot about it and went to do something else." Said George.

"In the end we had convince our minds to stop thinking it's something you did, figuring someone put a spell on you as we searched those kinds of magics, till we found it, who put the Fidelius charm on you and why?" The look in both the redheaded eye's became the sharpest he has ever seen in them, as he couldn't help but marvel their genius minds, as they managed to figure out their forgetfulness and the cause even as it somewhat intertwined with the Fidelius.

"Sure, but I need an unbreakable vow from both of you that whatever is said here and now won't be discussed with anyone whose not in this room right now, nor give any hints, let them in your mind or give your memories, and that you won't try wiggle your way out of this promise, oh, and that the only place you can talk about the subject if I'm not in your 2 meter radius is this room."

The shock in their eyes grew as the oath they needed to swear grew tighter.

"Tell me one thing," Fred said, "is it cool?"

"Extremely"

They shared a look and said together

"Fine"

Never say Gryffindors don't have desire for knowledge.

A quick unbreakable vow later and Harry said one word before they started their long conversation, in the end of which he had two more wandless magic student, two more to conspire with, and two more close friends.

This word was "Dobby."
