Chapter one: The first dream.

The green light flashed from the wand tip and Ron crumpled to the ground. A cry of despair echoed from Harry and Voldemort turned to him his red eyes staring into his. Pain seared across his forehead and he felt as though his head would explode. He fell to his knees and the pain subsided. He looked up at the black robes in front of him. Voldemort raised his wand but he was not looking at Harry.

"Stupefy!" the voice rang out from behind Harry and a read beam of light flew at Voldemort but Voldemort deflected it with a careless flick of his wand. Then a man with a long white bread leaped over Harry. It was Dumbledore. Voldemort carelessly gave his wand another flick and Dumbledore flew over ten feet. Harry looked at the Dark Lord and his scar exploded with pain and he cried out again. Someone shook him roughly by the shoulder and he woke.

"Harry! Harry! Are you ok?" He looked up into a face framed with brown curls.

"Hermione; when did you get here?"

"I got here just a moment ago." Harry looked over to Ron who was sleeping soundly. He pressed a hand to his forehead. The lightning shaped scar was still burning.

"When did you say you got the burrow?" he asked Hermione.

"Just a moment ago I came up to see you two. Where you having a dream about Voldemort?"

"Yes. I was fighting him but then Ron appeared near me as though he had apperated. The Voldemort killed him. Dumbledore turned up but Voldemort did something to him then you woke me."

"Sirius would want to know about this, Harry."

"Hermione he's gone."

"Remember when Luna spoke about the people behind the veil." Harry almost smiled.

"Hermione. Luna talks about the Crumple-horned Snorkack and people in a veil. If either of them is real I'll eat one of Fred a Georges' fake wands." There was knock on the door and Ginny came in. She went straight over to Harry and planted a kiss on his lips. There was sound from the corner of the room and they all saw Ron sitting there.

"I thought you two decided to break up at the end of school.'

"So did I." Harry said.

"I noticed that it wasn't quite right." Ginny said happily. "I don't care whether your going after Voldemort (Ron winced) or not. I want to be with you." She said firmly to Harry.

"Come on lets go down for breakfast."

For Harry breakfast consisted of three large sausages, two rashers of bacon, four fried eggs and a piece of toast. Harry had just finished breakfast when there was aloud bang the unconscious owl slid down the window near him. Errol had hit the glass part of the window again. Mrs Weasly came across the room and took four thick envelopes out of Errol's beak. Everyone seemed calm except for Hermione who looked at the envelopes and her face became a mask of terror.

"Oh no. Our O.W.L.S. are here. I know I failed in all of them. I thought I went well in charms but I know I didn't now." Harry sighed. He was used to Hermione fretting about her marks. He knew that her worst fear was to fail everything. Hermione told him that's what had happened when she faced a boggart in the third year defence against the dark arts exam. Harry was pleased with his marks. He and Ron had both got Exceeds Expectations in potions and both of them had failed in divination.

"Hermione, how did you go?" Ron asked.

"Not too bad." She said as Ron looked at her marks.

"I knew it." Ron said. "All Outstanding except for potions which is Exceeds Expectations."

Harry slept badly that night. He was fighting several death eaters in his dream with Ron and Ginny beside him and Voldemort appeared in front of him. His scar exploded with pain and he fell to the ground writhing in agony. Harry looked up and expected to see Voldemort but instead he saw the wooden roof of the burrow above him. He had woken up.

"Why the hell am I having these dreams? I don t understand why I am dreaming them when nothing has happened. All my other dreams have been happening at the time but Ron is still alive and Dumbledore must be safe because Voldemort is afraid of him." suddenly there was a loud crack and two people appeared in front of him and he leaped to his feet grabbing his wand from the bedside table.
