This is set during Severus Snape's reign as Headmaster of Hogwarts.

Neville Longbottom has returned to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry but this time, Harry, Ron and Hermione are not with him and he must face the coming Darkness alone.
Forged in the fires of adversity, tempered by love, Neville will become a sword ready to be wielded at the appointed hour...

Neville Longbottom sat brooding in an armchair by the fire in the Gryffindor Common Room, watching the flames leap and dance in the grate without really seeing them. Memories of his first year here played out in his mind.

"There's no need to tell me I'm not brave enough to be in Gryffindor. Malfoy has already done that." he had said after Hermione had released him from the leg-locking curse.

"You're worth twelve of Malfoy." Harry had said, and though he had not been quite able to bring himself to believe that, for the first time he had felt as though he truly belonged. Until that point, he had been sure the Sorting Hat had made a terrible mistake. He knew he owed Harry Potter much, not least of all, his allegiance. He had come back to Hogwarts this year prepared to fight at Harry's side, but Harry had not returned and Neville felt somewhat lost.

"Now what do we do?" Neville asked himself, but the flames held no answers hidden in their depths.

One thing was certain, he must act. With Harry gone there was no one to lead the D.A. and Neville felt that, now more then ever before, they must prepare to defend themselves. War was upon them, he was sure of it. The only question was what was he prepared to do about it?

Neville pulled a coin out of a pocket in his robes and absently flipped it between his fingers. He would call a meeting of the D.A. He didn't know if anyone would show up, but it was a start.
