Dumbledore Takes the Blame for D.A. and Escapes

PAGES: 614-621

Dumbledore confesses to organizing the D.A., calling it “Dumbledore's Army” rather than Harry's. He takes full responsibility to protect Harry and the students, causing Cornelius Fudge to order his arrest. However, Dumbledore refuses to be taken quietly and uses a spell to incapacitate everyone in the room before escaping with Fawkes, his phoenix.
