The new and improved version of Reading In Remembrance. Yay! Improved spelling & grammar, easier to read and without quoting the books.

It was on a Monday in early November when it happened.

The day started out perfectly ordinary (when I say started, I mean until breakfast, because that was when it arrived).

The DA members were impatiently waiting for their lesson in the evening (apart from Zacharias Smith and Marietta Edgecombe that is).

Just as the Golden Trio was getting up in order to arrive early for History of Magic (at Hermionie's instance even tough Ron had argued that Binns wouldn't notice either way), a howler arrived out of nowhere in the middle of the Great Hall.

It was soon clear that no parent or guardian had sent this (the relief was almost visible), as four different voices, none of which sounded older than 14, spoke.

Hello, Professor Umbitch! Her name is Umbridge! And don't swear in front of Lily! I like my name for her better. It also fits. And I haven't found a good toad pun yet. Back to the point. Teddy, may I say it? Yes, you may, Lily. We're from the future! *giggles* And we're sending you a list of the victims of both Blood Wars. Because, whether you like it or not, Voldemort is back in your time. As we know certain Professor – Still saying she doesn't deserve that title. Or any. Thank you for your comment, Albus. As I was saying, due to a certain Professor's disbelief, we're not letting anyone out of the hall. But we're sending guests.

Yours sincerely

As soon as the howler ended (before Umbridge could voice her thoughts about this simply being a prank) a group of people (and an owl and a house-elf) appeared in the middle of the hall together with a letter. After a quick introduction and an explanation why they were here, everyone sat down (The Weasleys but Percy, Remus Lupin, Snuffles, Oliver Wood, Dobby, and Hedwig at the Gryffindor table, the Tonkses and Amelia Bones at the Hufflepuff one, Alastor Moody at the Slytherin one and Cornelius Fudge and Percy Weasley went towards the staff table).

Once everybody was seated the letter started to read itself out loud.
