I am curious. Please tell me.

Especially if they concern:
*Harry (duh)
*Sirius
*The veil
*prophecies
*or how harry is gonna get away with all the stuff he did in book five, like use an Unforgivable, Crucio

I think harry will get away with using the curse because there were soo many death eaters in the room. I also think some thing will happen concerning the mirror, like maybe voldy some how gets hold of it and uses it to make Hp think he's talking with Sirius. How easy would it be to confund a mirror. And as for that tiny bit of a prophecy - and none will come again - maybe the place where hp and Voldy fight to the death of one or both of them no one will ever go there again because it holds such sad memories for people like HP's friends. those are my theories.

I'm still working on a theory. But I think Sirius is gone forever...
Because jkr isn't writing a fairy tale
She cried while writing it

I was wonderiong who will take care of Buckbeak. Cause since Sirius is not around (he's on holiday!) some one has to feed him and I doubt Kreacher will. Who would take care of a animal that has been put on death row? And also will they keep using Grimmauld Place?

Yeah imagine if JKR forgot to mention Buckbeak at all in book 6!

Haha, that would be hilarious. For some reason, I think Buckbeak's gonna die a heroic death. But I think he'll die fighting Voldie or something. That would be cool.

I think that the people in the order will look after buckbeak. Just because Sirius fell through the veil doesn't mean that they're going to give up the best place in the world to hold their meetings. Or if not the order I think Harry will end up moving in and looking after buckbeak.

I don't think DD would let HP leave the Dursleys. He's well protected there. And what would happen during the holidays? HP would not be able to look after him from Hogwarts. And I doubt DD would let Buckbeak come back.

I have a theory, that's taken me a looong time to develop, but it has nothing to do with Harry, Sirius, Veil, Prophecies etc. this has to do with Mr Aberforth Dumbledore.

Aberforth Dumbledore, Albus' brother, is a strange bloke. As we know, he got arrested for performing illegal experiments on a goat. My belief is that his wand was snapped because of this incident.
We also know that he was in a photograph of the Order, so we can assume he is a part of the Order. I ALSO believe that he is the barkeep in the Hog's Head, and he spies for the Order there. Remember Harry's reaction to the bartender when they antered the bar?

"The barman sidled towards them out of a back room. He was a grumpy-looking old man with a great deal of long grey hair and a beard. He was tall and thin and looked vaguely familiar to Harry."

Coincidence? I THINK NOT!! And funny stuff goes on in the Hog's Head, as Hagrid and many others have learned, so why shouldn't the Order have a spy there? And he came in handy once too. I'm betting that he was the one who caught the Voldemort-spy halfway through Trelawney's prophecy. remember?

"My -our- one stroke of good fortune was that the eavesdropper was detected only a short way into the peophecy and thrown from the building."

It was Aberforth! yes! Aberforth threw him from the building. That was how Dumbledore knew that he was detected and all, his BROTHER told him!
And the theory that his wand was snapped is backed up by the fact that he was washing the glasses in the Hog's Head without any magic at all. A dirty rag. (Although it's possible that, as Moody said, he was just a "strange bloke" and never used magic to wash dishes... we can only guess.)

Wow.....an excellent theory Laura!

Brilliant! My word how long were you thinking about that? Or did it just pop into your head? And you know what, it could be true, no it's got to be true.

Oh yeah, that. Yep, that was definitely Aberforth! Dang, you got to post that before me. :wink: Ha. I haven't heard anything about that rag though. Good idea, his wand probably was snapped. I never gave a thought about it.


Edit: Spirit can you please not quote the entire post of another person in the future. Since people will probably read every post anyway there is no need for an entire quote.

Oh, and I just remembered something! Okay, this is more of a joke, but anyway, you know how Voldemort call people by their last names? Okay, well then why did he call Bellatrix Lestrange "Bella" in ch. The Only One He Ever Feared? I know that their are two Lestrange's, but then why didn't he just call her Bellatrix? And why did he "grab 'Bella' and run" from the Department of Mysteries, yet made no attempt to get anyone else?

This is kind of more of a joke, as I said, but I thought someone might get a laugh at it and like to pick at it or something.

Am I supposed to laugh? Oh yes, I am.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! *laughs* Well....that is awkward. Maybe Voldie DOES have a lover....

Hehehe! That is interesting. XD Voldie and Bella... but isn't Bella married?
Oh, and TOD, my theory took me about a week to get like that. Lol. I could never have something like that pop into my head. My head is too slow.

[size=24][/size] The tittle would be "The green flame torch'' Here harry's eyes will burn all evils

Oh! I was just reading some interviews and stumbled upon this:

Q: What makes some witches/wizards become ghosts after they die and some not?
JKR: You don't really find that out until Book VII, but I can say that the happiest people do not become ghosts. As you might guess, Moaning Myrtle!

I see... this means something! Nearly Headless Nick knew for sure that Sirius wouldn't be a ghost, while Harry kept in mind that if "not all wizards" become ghosts, Sirius still had a chance! But I see... maybe not. Maybe the only people who can become ghosts are the one's who have a revenge to pay or something. But if it was that, anyone at all who was murdered would have a revenge to pay... bleh.
Again, we can only guess.

I would want Ginny to be a Prefect.......and Dudely to become a wizard!!!

OH!!! That's cool HILARY FAN!!
I want Harry to be a prefect tooo as he was not made one in Book 5!! It seem unusual but he can put MALFOY in detention!! HAHAHA!! 8)

Hilary fan you can't fool us. Please only use one name or we will have to ban your alter-egos.

Nah, I don't want Dudley to be a wizard. And Harry can still be a head boy. Harry's dad was a Head boy and he was never a prefect!

Harry's dad was Head Boy?!?! what book was that in?
:?

I am not folling u all :cry:
It's just that u don't know we r like cousins!!!!
I too don't know but i think that Sirius or Dumblodore told Harry!!!!

Hagrid told Harry that his father was head boy with Lily. Ha, maybe the head girl will be Pansy Parkinson! :wink:

Hagrid said that Lily and James were Head girl and Boy in their day, didn't he? MAybe I have another quote somewhere here...
Ah yes, here it is,

(Hagrid talking, Philosopher's Stone, Chap. 4) "Now, yer mum an' dad were as good a witch an' wizard as I ever knew. Head boy an' girl at Hogwarts in their day! Suppose the myst'ry is why You-Know-Who never tried to get 'em on his side before..." And it goes on and on.

I keep my Potter books beside my computer at all times, very handy.

i hope ron and hermione go out. and wen they get older i hope they get married. that would b the best!!!! ron and hermione would b just like mr and mrs weasly!!!! and that would b puni

Book 7 Won't be the last book. In book 5 read the chapter "Career Advice" Harry wants to become an Auror and Proffessor McGongall swears that she will see him become an auror if it's the last thing she does. You will also find that it takes an additional 3 years of training to become an auror. There will be an epic battle between Voldermort and Harry in the 7th book and Voldermort will appear to be defeated. Some things will be explained by Dumbledore after this, but for some reason he doesn't seem to be convinced that this is over. He advises them to remain cautious. In the end you will see Harry, Ron, and Hermione on the train leaving Hogwarts and talking about their futures and auror training. Harry suddenly falls to the floor clutching his head in agony. Hermione asks "whats wrong Harry?" Ron and Hermione nervously wait for his answer... and Harry replies... "b.. burning... s.. scar!"

Actually JKR has stated that there will be no more Harry Potter books after the seventh. So it doesn't matter if he becomes an Auror. And the whole series was based around HP and Voldy getting into a fight and one of them being victorious, not about what HP will become when he's finished at Hogwarts.

thers not gon b another book after the 7th she sed it herself tho did JK write another book??? called quiditch thru the ages??? i read it sumwer!!

Yes she did write Quidditch Through the Ages. and Another one about the beasts and stuff. It was one of their set books in the first book.

She is a good writer!!!She could write another book like Harry Potter but more myterious and exciting book!!! 8)

another theory (or part-theory):

well, I've done some snooping, and some people think that hidden meanings show that Myrle/Myrtle's bathroom will be the small thing in Chamber that plays a big role in book six. Well, I think that Myrtle will play the big role in book six because the bathroom is not likely to be very important, but I also have a clue that I'm posting on all the sites that I can: in page 228 of the American hardback, it mentions work that will not be finished until the sixth year. That is right before he goes to Myrtle's bathroom and discovers the diary. Just thought JK might be playing with us. I reread the whole book and that was all I could find in it.

Not a very inportant point but I think that we will see the Weasley Twins bring alot of money to the weasley family which will make Ron happy!
But I reckon Percy will miss out after leaving them! hurray!
Also just incase any one didn't know, book 6 will be released in the summer of 2005 at the earliest but probably in the summer of 2006.

Yes I read that on Mugglenet's forums and they also say that the chamber of secrets will play a part in book 6/7.

There are rumours that the chamber of secrets will be a part of books 6 and 7.

JKR said on an online chat that Harry's stay at Privet Drive this next year would be his shortest yet.

If you remember, Dumbledore tells Harry that Mundungus was banned from the Hog's Head many years ago by the barman(who has a long memory) perhaps it was Mundungus who was thrown out when eavesdropping Dumbledore and Tralawney and he was a death eater. Also in the book it says that Dumbledore helped Dung out of trouble once.
IDEAS ANYONE? :?:

Hey Guest, please don't quote the whole thing. If you want to reply to something say that your replying to Lauras post on what ever day she posted it. That way it saves time and doesn't look bad.

well i dont think sirius is dead. he fell behind the curtain. but there were death eaters cam from behind the curtain. so i think there is another story to this. thats why he did not become a ghost, because he is not dead.

I've found a clue in Book 5 I think about a girl Harry will be with. It may (of course I'm not sure) be Parvati Patil. I guessed so because he payed big attention to her hair at the OWL exam

*claps her hands delightedly* Ohh...how I would LOVE that to happen! I'm pretty darn sure that Parvati will be of Indian ethnicity....I mean come on? PATIL?? THAT'S AN INDIAN NAME!!!

Presuming that Parvati's religion will be of Hindu or Sikh nature, Harry will sure get himself in a load of dung if he meets her parents. I don't think Padma would be to welcoming either......

I don't think Harry and Parvati Patil will end up together. I still think it is Ginny. (lol). I keep on writing that. As for Sirius being dead, I dont think he is. I mean the curse wasn't a killing curse so he couldnt have died from that. And the veil would be what killed him if he did die. If he did, I have a feeling we will be seeing him again somewhere. In Book 5 when harry was in the RoR he was looking at the foe glass and saw people but no one he recognized ( i think thats what it said). ne way.... Maybe Harry will see sirius next time he looks in it. (its just a thought). I can't wait until the next book comes out. We wont be seeing much of the Dursleys cuz its Harry's shortest visit yet. I wonder how he'll react if he goes back to Grimlaud Place.I mean Sirius hated it, and it would bring bck memories of Sirius. Do you think harry is going to withdraw himself from his friends and become depressed or confided in his friends and let them help. I think the first is what is going to happen. I just have a feeling a bout it.

In an interview with JKR I read that Moaning Myrtle was one of her favorite characters. She also stated that we will see her again in the future. Maybe she will play a fairly big part in book 6. :?

Hi All, this is my first time on this forum and i thought i would give you my opinion of Sirus. He is dead in an interview they had with JKR on Carte Blanche she said that when he died she cried, her husband said to her that she can bring him back to life but she said no she can't. So he can't still be alive.
As much as i would love him to be alive i don't think he is.

I disagree with Sirius being dead. In an interview she said this:
" Kelpie_8: Will the two way mirror Sirius gave Harry ever show up again?
JK Rowling replies -> Ooooo good question. There's your answer.
.....
SiriuslyLovinSirius: If we ever see Sirius again, what form will he be in?
JK Rowling replies -> I couldn't possibly answer that for fear of incriminating myself."

incriminating means like giving herself away. This interview was the one in March. SO even though she said she cried when she 'killed' sirius off, i dont think he is really and truely dead.

yeh thats very true! what if he comes back in a different form or something, that will be interesting!!

yeah, but i donnot what form he would take it it wasnt a ghost. what other form is there?

There has to be a reason Sirius is dead....she can't have just killed him just because he is Harry's godfather, and that would be yet another loss...if she killed Sirius, she can kill Harry. Having Sirius dead opens up that possibilty a lot more than otherwise. Harry was born for a purpose, we all know that. So, I suppose she could go for the tragic hero theme...at the end. Harry killing Voldemort, and then dying himself. Although I don't know how she could pull that off...that theme has been written and re-written so many times in different books and movies, I'm afraid it's lost a bit of it's meaning. If she did it right, that could be how the books could end. I honestly have no idea...there are so many possibilities...I do think that theory about Aberforth is a good one. That could very well be a serious possibility I think. Wasn't his wand taken away from him, like Hagrid's was? I have to do more research, this isn't up to Potter Standards.

Hi All,

This is my first posting. Personally i am afraid that Sirius is really dead i do not see him return in some form without damaging the story line. If it hadn't be that final in the end of book 5 than maybe is was possible.
I do not know the Aberforth theory but Hagrids wand was not taken from him it was snapped. But Hagrid still has the pieces as he tells Mr Olliviander in book 1, page 64. It even suggest that Hagrid has placed these pieces in some form in his umbrella that he still uses to do seceretly some magic.
I had some wierd thought lately, could it be possible that if Dumbledore becomes the new DADA professor in book 6 he will die???. It is suggested that JKR will kill another character and the book will be shorter so there is no space to thoroughly introduce a new character for the pupose of killing him. By killing Dumbledore in the end of book 6 it will give Harry a chance of facing the greatest danger in bk7 without a character that knows all the answers and solves his problems. In other words he will face the dangers in book 7 on his own with his friends and so becoming an adult.
