I do not own anything Harry Potter but wished I did.

Voldemort felt like jumping for joy. He only had one more appearance to put in today before leaving the campus and telling his Death Eaters the good news. He walked over to the dominant vampire dorm and went in and went down to the basement and knocked on the door.

When the door opened he stared at the most familiar green Eyes.

James went through every day as he always did. Got up ate, dressed and then to training. Since he was the house father he had to deal with a few problems and paperwork after that. He was in his room right before he went to training when an eagle landed on his window. He was in the basement but there were windows close to the ceilings and they were vampires so they could reach them if they needed to by flying.

He got the letter and read it. He laughed when he saw what Mrs. Rhys wrote him. He figured that this would happen eventually but knew that like any good Merlin's Guile student he needs to be prepared for the worst but hope for the best. He cleaned the basement and then went to training. Because he was a vampire he only trained with the dominates and Cara trained the submissives. Like others before them they did a blood brother/sister bond to help them coordinate interrelations between the two groups. It made it easier to deal with problems as well.

The training as always was brutal, the teacher was a demon and his group had to go one the course where they had to dismantle wards and then get rid of training dummies that were shooting dark spells at them. Then use necromancy to fight other inferi at the end of the course because there was too many to get rid of just with spells.

By the time they were done training was done and he went to take a shower and then head back to his room to get ready for negation. He actually did not think it was a bad idea that Voldemort proposes but knew that the man had tried to kill him before and was not sure what his reaction was going to be.

There was a door knock and James went to open the door. He saw blood red eyes but the rest of the man was like he had saw in the chamber of secrets except a few years older.

"PPotter!?"

"Hello how are you my name is James Evans and I am the House father for the dominate vampires here at Merlin's Guile. I have had this position for 2 years and before that I dealt with the smaller children from ages 7 to 11 here at school for simple spell casting. I have been at this school since I was 7 years old but transferred when I turned 11 but continue summer classes here. I have Outstanding in all my classes and after this summer will take my masters in Healing and Potions."

Voldemort stayed silent during all of this as it was customary for the vampires to rank themselves as such. He smirked as he listened as the boy spoke and almost snorted it seemed the boy was not as golden or as clueless as he seemed at Hogwarts. Also, he had heard bad things about the boy in Potions, so it seemed that he was a good actor to even fool his spy Snape.

Voldemort look at the boy again and realized that he had stopped speaking and was waiting for him to introduce himself.

"My name is Voldemort and also known as Tom Marvolo Riddle. I had outstanding grades at Hogwarts and came here for extended year right after. I am hoping to help all the creatures and also those labeled dark for example all a vampire is labeled dark because it drinks blood but the ministry does not take into account the fact that the blood has to be willingly given or it is of no use to the vampire because it does not taste good and will make the vampire sick."

"I thought that you wanted to get rid of all muggleborns and get rid of muggles. There are also the rumors that while you want our help you refuse to give you mark to us."

"I did not realize that my enemy wanted my mark so much. Actually my mark will not work on nonhumans and I have other ways of contacting them because of this. I have a stone that can be put on a bracelet or necklace that will heat up when the person is needed. In fact I have considered getting rid of the mark all together but I am still considering it. I am not against muggleborns but believe that they should be taught earlier than the pureblood children to help equality in the classroom.

"Hmm well that does make sense but why come to me, it would be easy enough to recruit the rouges and not have to deal with this system of order?"

"Yes that is true but the fact remains that I do want order in my troops, as you most likely know Dumbledore is slowly losing power and this is the best time to strike against him. The ministry is becoming more problematic every day and I know that eventually it will collapse by itself. I do not want that to happen. As you go to Hogwarts (James gave him an innocent look) don't give me that look we both know who you are and if it was not for the fact that I know that there are enchantments on this room that prevent me from harming you I would have already tried to hurt you. However, I think that we could be allies instead."

"I do agree with you about the ministry but I also think the same about Dumbledore, I think if you leave him alone eventually he will not be very important anymore whether by his own stupidity or by other things for example; lawsuits yet to be seen."

That piped Voldemort's curiosity but was still trying to be cautious and not anger the other. He was glad now that he had not tried to really kill him in the graveyard but only scare him. A vampire is very hard to kill and certain rituals must be done for it to happen. More likely Voldemort would have killed himself than Pot…James getting killed. He talked about his goals and what needed to be done to help the failing government.

"Well I see no reason why you can not meet my coven but be aware Voldemort that if I see you even think about using you wand to hurt someone other than your own people I will respond to it and it will not be very pleasant"

Voldemort did not doubt that for a second and was willing to agree. They found a day that both the vampires and Voldemort with a select amount of death eaters would be able to talk to each other.

Next: The meeting between the two groups – I may tell what happens with the other groups but I will most likely be more centered on the vampires and Voldemort with death eaters.

Also, I know that it real does not make sense how Voldemort was acting but in this story I making him regain his sanity and think of the future. Do not have worries the next chapter will have fighting; Snape and Malfoy are part of the Death Eaters going.

Thanks for all the reviews that everyone sent me. I have been in and out of doctors' offices for the past few weeks. I hope that I will be able to get back into writing more every week again.

Please Review.
