The death eaters and Lord Voldemort commenced such an attack on the muggle world to put even more pressure on to the resignation of Minster for Magic Cornelius Fudge. Lord Voldemort wanted to create fear to the wizarding world.

Thus the death eater’s attack on the Millennium Bridge also contributed to the resignation and overthrowing of Minister for Magic Cornelius Fudge.

Cornelius Fudge informs the Prime Minister of Great Britain his resignation and his successor Rufus Scrimgeour while he explained what really happened on the collapse of the Millennium Bridge/Brockdale Bridge.

 

 

Harry Potter becomes the captain of the Gryffindor House Quidditch Team

Albus Dumbledore appointed Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley as prefects for the Gryffindor House. He didn’t appoint Harry Potter a prefect because he thought Harry Potter was already under so much pressure during the time point of Harry Potter and the Order of the Pheonix.

However, Harry Potter becomes the captain for the Gryffindor House Quidditch team while he reached sixth grade.

 

 

 


Captain of the quidditch team granted privileges equivalent as a prefect so captains of the quidditch team could access the prefect bathroom and hold similar privileges and responsibilities although they couldn’t deduct house points.

However Harry Potter suffered a lot as he couldn’t organize the team very much while Ginny Weasley would take action and lead the team to follow Harry Potter.

 

 

Resignation of Minster for Magic Cornelius Fudge

Cornelius Fudge himself witnesses Lord Voldemort at the Ministry of Magic atrium. The public was furious as Cornelius Fudge and his office has been fully denying the return of Lord Voldemort.

Death of Amelia Susan Bones

The head of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement Amelia Susan Bones who’ve also led the disciplinary hearing of Harry Potter during Harry Potter and the Order of the Pheonix to a fair trial was murdered by Lord Voldemort.

Lord Voldemort was slowly taking out those who would stand against him. Along with Amelia Susan Bones, a lot of members of the Order of the Pheonix started to go missing or murdered.

 

 

Albus Dumbledore in the muggle world – With the Dursley’s and Budeligh Babberton for Slughorn

Albus Dumbledore visited the muggle world during the start of Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince for several reasons.

He also took Harry Potter to Budleigh Babberton a muggle village where Horace Slughorn was hiding from the death eaters.

 

 

Harry Potter and house-elf Kreacher

Harry Potter has inherited the properties of Sirius Black including 12 Grimmauld Place and mastership of the Black Family’s house-elf Kreacher. Kreacher denied Harry Potter’s ownership as he hated to become the house-elf for Harry Potter but later on Harry Potter’s ownership of Kreacher was proven.

Cormac McLaggen hit a bludger to Harry Potter’s head knocking him out during the Quidditch match against Hufflepuff House.

 

 

Harry Potter was in the hospital wing and remembers the moment when Dobby suddenly apparated mid-air. Harry Potter tests the ownership of Kreacher and successfully summons Kreacher. Eventually Harry Potter orders Kreacher to watch on Draco Malfoy while working for the Hogwarts School.

 

 

Harry Potter starts dating Ginny Weasley

Ginny Weasley became a member of the Slug Club after Horace Slughorn became impressed of Ginny Weasley casting a hex on Zacharias Smith.

Ginny Weasley started dating Dean Thomas from Gryffindor House. She was caught kissing Dean Thomas in public by Ron and Harry. Ron was outrageous at Ginny but Ginny argued that Ron doesn’t know anything because he never dated someone.

 

 

This started a feud between the two. While Ron also started dating Lavendar Brown, the feud between Ginny and Ron even grew as Ginny considered Ron a hypocrite.

Ginny started to spend more time with Harry as she successfully became a good chaser for the Gryffindor Quidditch Team. As Ron was poisoned by the oak-mautred mead that was originally a gift for Dumbledore by Slughorn, Ginny and Ron forgave each other.

 

 

 

 

However, Ginny couldn’t focus on dating Dean during Ron’s hospitalization and a Ginny and Dean’s relationship started to crumble.

Surprisingly, Harry Potter drinking Felix Felicis caused the breakup of Ginny and Dean Thomas. While Harry was under his Invisibility Cloak after drinking Felix Felicis, Harry slightly bumped into Ginny.

 

 

Ginny thought it was Dean trying to undermine her thinking she couldn’t pass the door to the Gryffindor common room, and this incident eventually caused Ginny and Dean’s breakup.

In other words, Felix Felicis helped Harry date Ginny. The emotions through a long time between Ginny and Harry eventually built up their relationship. Harry started to date Ginny after their kiss after winning the Quidditch Cup.

 

Ongoing conflict between Harry Potter, Albus Dumbledore & Rufus Scrimgeour’s Ministry of Magic

The new Minster for Magic Rufus Scrimgeour was also keen Albus Dumbledore and there was distrust between them. Rufus Scrimgeour also tried to persuade Harry Potter to become a symbol for the Ministry of Magic and use Harry as propaganda.

 

 

Albus Dumbledore was against the Ministry of Magic’s attempt. Harry Potter directly informed Rufus Scrimgeour during their encounter that Rufus Scrimgeour’s office was just as worse as Cornelius Fudge’s office. Thus the distrust between the Ministry of Magic and Albus Dumbledore, Harry Potter even became worse.
