Albus stormed through his cabin slamming the door behind him. He was shaking with rage. People just didn't know how to leave him alone. Not to mention his father and brother practically hate him right now. "They don't understand" he yelled, even though he was the only one in the cabin he walked into the kitchen and kick a chair out of his way and walked to the refridgerator. He grabbed a bottle of water and started to drink heavily.

James walked straight into the cabin, without bothering to knock. It didn't take him long to find his brother, he was guzzling down water like he hadn't drank in days. "Good idea" He said simply, walking into the kitchen and sitting on one of the sides. "Rehydrate yourself..." he yawned before saying, he walked up to Albus's fridge and looked around, he then pulled out a red apple and shut the door. "I don't know what possessed you to down a glass of firewiskey...you'l regrette that in the morning" he added, he took a bite out of the apple- looking at Albus to see what he was about to say.

Albus sighed but didn't look at James. "I like firewhiskey, and it takes away my problems for alittle while. " he said but then he knew how ridiculous he had been in the pub. He sighed and turned towards james. He leaned back against the counter and continued to drink. "I don't understand how this happened. All of this. Everything used to be so perfect.." he said quietly looking at the floor.

"No you don't, it tastes disgusting...It feels like your pouring boiling hot water down your neck" he said dismissively. "And anyway, do you really think that the best way to deal with your problems is to forget about them for a few hours? Nah, do what you normally do" he sighed however, when Albus mentioned how life used to be perfect. "I know...going to the burrow every week or so, when all the family was there" James laughed to himself, "Laughing at Uncle George as he showed us his new inventions..."It was just starting to dawn on James how different things would be from now on.

Albus looked at James. "Your one to give out advice." he said bitterly when James told him about firewhiskey. Then he listened to James alittle longer and the corners of his mouth twitched when James mentioned the burrow. "I miss that place. Everything was so simple there. No complications no war. " he said and he looked down at the floor again. Then he looked up at James. "We need to get this guy and end this soon, or this could turn into a huge war again." he said feeling more and more like himself as time passed.

James smiled, "I suppose your right" He said, "But that doesnt meen im wrong" He looked around the room, taking another bite of the apple. "Dont let it worry you too much Al" James said, "You will never have to deal with this alone...we have each others backs" He added, he smiled before saying "You wait, this time next year we'll be back in the burrow having table fights will mum and dad arnt watching"

Albus grinned at James. "I hope your right. " then his expression hardened again. "Yes family have eachothers backs right? What about Nikki? Should we just abandon her then?" he asked looking at James. His hand got offly tight around his glass.

The smile that had taken up James's face vanished. "I have never said we should abandon her" he said, "And i hardly feel i am the right person to make the decision" He added, "Nicky is...I don't know, i don't pretend to know" He threw his apple across the room, and it landed squarely in the rubbish bin. "I trust Dad's judgment, and i don't agree with what Nicky is doing" He started to pace slowly across the room, his thumbs in his pockets. "But saying that, Nicky is our cousin....we shouldn't be too quick to turn our backs on her, even if what she is doing is wrong...i think" he paused and corrected himself, "I hope, that Nicky thinks what she is doing- is for the best..."As James said to his brother, he didn't trust himself to make a decision as big as that. He would trust his fathers judgment. No matter what his decision was, as both his son, and a member of the order.

Albus wasn't so quick to feel the same as James. "But what if dad's judgement is off. What if he's wrong. He is human after all. He's not some immortal invincible guy. Sure he's a great dad and an amazing auror but we all act like he's a god." he said meaning his words but regretting them slightly. He walked up and stood in front of his brother he was his height and he looked him straight in the eye. "I think Nikki's knows what she's doing. I've seen her go into Aunt Hermiones office alot. They must talk about it. I know she will do the best thing in the end. " he said trying to convince himself that his words were true. He looked at James his blue eyes flashing.

James looked at his brother, "Dad can make mistakes, no one is questioning that- he has done it, and can do it again- but he is my dad, and i trust him" He paused before saying, "I know Nicky is talented and smart, but can she resist him? What if they use legimency?" he added, "There are so many things that could go wrong! Shes walking into a death trap" James looked away, the chat seemed to have sobered up Albus considerably.

Albus sighed and rubbed his head. "I guess your right. But just because dad says something doesn't mean i'm going to obey or follow him or agree with him right away. " he said and he put a hand on James' shoulder. "We have to be stratgeic in this war. Thorn is alot smarter than voldemort apparently. We can't be too quick to act or judge. We have to sneak around right now." he said wisely looking at his brother. Then he took his hand off his shoulder and went into a kitchen cabinet and pulled out a bottle with pills in it. He took one out and popped it into his mouth. His headache healed instantly. He smiled at James.

"I guess the order has people who can do that..." he said, "I wont believe that Thorn will defeat the order..." He added, he paused before adding "But..." But he stopped himself, "Ive been thinking..." He looked around the room, flicking his wand so all the doors in the house shut. "If Thorn wants to recruit people, and meet them, then he has to have somewhere to meet them" He added, "He cant get into Hogwarts, and most of the work will be on the teacher we suspect is in with him- Malfoy- but Thorn will want to meet those who seek to join him...and to avoid suspicion it will have to be somewhere secret, near, but not in Hogwats" he smiled at Albus.
"My first thought was the Hogs Head, but thats too in the open, and Dad is staying there...then i thought, What if he knows about the passage under the womping willow?" He knew then Albus understood where he thought was the most likely place that Thorn would meet them, "I dont know if they have already been there, or if they are planning on it, but surely someone should check it out..."thats when the mischievous glint appeared in his eye.

Albus scowled but a smile on his face. James was always the adventurous one. And usually the one to get into trouble. Al looked back at his brother and saw determination and mischief in his eyes. He nodded. "Alright, we'll go, i guess i'll have to supervise this whole adventure." he said and he grinned at James.

"Wonderful" He said smiling, "I'll clear it with dad when i see him" He added smiling, but his smile widened. "Of course i don't plan on telling him the whole truth..." He continued. "But don't worry about that...i'll sort it" he added, He didn't want to go on his own- partly because he wanted the company- partly because he would be safer. "For now...i think you should get some sleep" He said, "Ill be back to check your still alive later" he added with a grin, He then made his way out of the cabin.

Al nodded to James still smiling. Once James left he crossed the room and climbed up his ladder and began to sleep.
((Someone can come in if they want...xD))

Sam walked up to Al's cabin, wanting to check he was ok after walking out the hog's head drunk earlier. She knocked on the door of the cabin.

Al was roused from his sleep and he climbed down the ladder, still in his clothes from earlier and answered the door. He saw Sam. "Hey Sam! Come in." he said and he opened the door for her and beckoned her in.

Sam grinned at him and stepped inside. "Nice cabin, Al!" she said, looking around, then faced him. "I was just coming to check on you after earlier" she said, smiling. "So are you ok?"

Al smiled at her and he ushered her into an armchair. He then walked over and took his wand off the table and sat down in the armchair accross from her. "I erm fine i guess. Better now that i've talked to James and Lily....." he said and he smiled again, he flicked his wand and a tray of mugs appeared one mug lifted off the tray and floated over to Sam. "It will turn into anything you want..." he said and he took off his mug and it turned into butterbeer. He drank some and smacked his lips and looked at her.

Sam smiled at him and her drink also turned into a butterbeer. "Sweet" she said then drank some. "Oh my god, I really hope my parents let me become an order member!!!" she said excitedly then looked at Al and shutup. "Sorry.." she said, knowing he wanted to be one but was too young.

Al sighed he knew he should be happy for her and james even though a big part of him envied her. But he had the DA and he was happy with that. "Its fine, at least im in charge of the DA so i don't feel like a total waste..." he said meaning his words and he smiled at her.

Sam laughed. "Yeah, that's true.. about the DA... I think we should have a meeting as soon as possible and start teaching spells. I mean, if all this is true and there's gonna be a huge battle, I think we should be prepared."

Al nodded his face serious again. "Yes...i wanted to get some more members first, possibly from different houses before we start having lessons...." he said looking at Sam his blue eyes glowing.

Sam nodded. "What kind of spells should we teach them do you think? Start with basic ones?"
