(7-15-05)-- "We must unite inside her or we'll crumble from with in." Harry realizes the Sorting Hat's song is true. And almost as soon as term starts students go missing, Voldemort plans for Harry's capture, on top of it all; Harry is debating about the difference between reality and fantasy. For Harry still isn't over Sirius'

....“The prospect is war, Deatheaters. Now the final step is being taken and soon I will be immortal. All there is, is one more step and then my path to Harry Potter, is complete, all you must do is kill Albus Dumbledore.”....

...“Harry,” he heard a voice it seemed distant yet close at the same time. He opened his eyes and saw Sirius there. “S-Sirius?” Harry stuttered. ....

"...And at that moment he realized something.... I’ll always be the outcast... I’ll never fit in... I’m tied to Voldemort through my scar... I’ll never be normal.... I’ll never fit in...."

"..."It was also said in the prophecy that Gryffindor's heir would bare a mark, a mark of love. And there's no doubt in my mind that you are Gryffindor's heir, and this wand belongs to you." ..."

Harry knew Voldemort wasn't a memory, however. But Harry knew at least until next year, Voldemort wouldn't be a major threat. At least--- Harry hoped so..."

"...“Harry Potter, enjoying your stay at the infamous Fortress of the Shadows?” Voldemort circled coldly, and as Voldemort moved he saw Nagini sitting on a throne in the middle of the room...."

"..‘next year this time we shall know the fate of the world...’.."
