Vinita:
After reading all the feedback you have got, I have another view about the role which the phoenix is going to play in the DH. Acccording to me the phoenix will come to Harry. Because in one of the books, not sure which one, Dumbledore mentions that it is only to that person who is the most loyal to him that the Phoenix will come.  And if you look at HBP there is again and again the mention of one thing in every interaction HP has with the Rufus Scrimgeour he makes this statement "Dumbledore's man through and through."  And it is my opinion that it is through this phoenix that Dumbledore will play a major role in DH.
