Disclaimer: I don't own the Harry Potter series J.K. Rowlings and a whole bunch of
Multi-billion dollar corporations do. I'm just borrowing them for my own twisted amusement. When I'm done I'll oblviate them and give them back well-shagged but unharmed.

Author's Note: This is my first Harry Potter fan fiction so be kind. I don't have a beta for Harry Potter as of yet so bear with me. On that note anyone who would be interested in being my beta please leave me a message in a review. Okay on to the warnings….

Warnings: While this is mostly a slash story it does contain a fair amount of het because it is both Harry/Draco and Hermione/Blaise.
Second, if you're a fan of Ron this story isn't for you. I needed a character to be a complete asshole and Ron won the jackpot.

Spoilers: Books 1-4 straight up. I kind of twisted the 5th book to fit my needs and may I have spoilers for the 6th book after I read it.

It's a brand new day

Prologue:
Declaration of Intent

The boy-who-lived also known as Harry Potter sat at his window at number four Privet Drive and waited for midnight. He always sat up and waited up for his birthday to come but this year was special. It would be his last with the Dursley's. In exactly 36 minutes he would be 16 years old. This year would be the best of his life, you see after 16 years of being a slave he would finally be free. No longer a slave to the Dursley's or to Dumbledore.

Unknown to all except his best friend Harry had gone through a change this summer. He didn't even fully understand it himself. He just felt different. Stronger and more clear-headed than ever before. It was like his Slytherin side had finally won out over his Gryffindor side. He didn't feel evil just a bit darker and more in control of himself. Harry knew in his soul that it was time for the real Harry to reveal himself. After Dumbledore's betrayal of him in his 5th year that had led to the death of his godfather and the old man continued non-attention of how the Dursley's treated him. Harry figured it was time for an attitude adjustment on his part.

All his life he had been selfless, always doing everything for everybody else. Never thinking or caring about himself. First it was the Dursley's treating him little better that a house-elf. Then it was off to the wizarding world where he was expected at 15 years old to defeat the evil of the century. He was always being told that it was his destiny and his fate to kill Voldemort. People just didn't understand how much he hated those two fucking words destiny and fate. He was ruled by them, they had defined his existence dooming him to a life of solitude and service, to a life of almost constant physical and mental pain to the point of almost driving him insane.

A wicked smirk came over Harry's face as he thought of how the coming year at Hogwarts would be. He and Hermione would rule the school by the end of the year. You see Harry had a plan. He wasn't just going to destroy Voldemort; he was going to take Dumbledore's power as well. It's not that Harry wanted to rule the world; he just thought that neither Dumbledore nor Voldemort deserved to be in power. It was amazing how alike the two men were, both would do anything to achieve their goals. Harry could understand this trait in Voldemort because; well he was an evil son of a bitch. Dumbledore on the other hand was supposed to be the ultimate wizard of the light, yet he was willing to sacrifice the mental and physical health of their "hero". Sometimes Harry wondered if Voldemort and Dumbledore were having a race to see who could drive him insane faster.

Harry looked over the scrap of parchment in his hand once again and thought over his plans for his and Hermione's 6th year at Hogwarts.

Harry and Hermione's 6th Year Plan

1. A new look for the both of us. (Can anyone say leather? I can)
2. Give Ron his walking papers. (That arsehole is so not my best friend!)
3. Show everyone our true colors.( They sure as hell aren't red and gold)
4. Get me and Mione resorted into Slytherin.
5. Help Mione seduce Blaise Zabini (Her secret crush)
6. Get Mione to help me seduce Draco Malfoy. (My secret crush, yes everyone your precious hero is gay)
7. Kick moldy Voldy's ass from here to hell and back.

Harry had been waiting all summer for this chance. It was finally time for the real Harry Potter and Hermione Granger to show themselves. No one knew how hard it was to act the angel when you knew you weren't. Harry was brought out of his thoughts by the chiming of the hall clock, it was finally midnight.

Let the games begin.
