A/N: Hi everyone! So I'm trying to figure out who Harry's match should be, I've even put a poll up, so check that out. Not only that but feel free to put your opinion in your reviews or if you want to have a more in depth conversation about it, send me a message. Let me know what you guys are thinking!

The next morning Harry was in a bad mood because just like always they were running late. Neville met them just past the gate but it was a little to obvious for Harry's comfort that his pride member had expected him to be alone and not with the circle of aurors and they noticed to. The twins dragged him a way with very little protest but the Creevy brothers were a whole different story. Neither of his cubs understood or liked how they weren't allowed to be near their alpha and without the twins there to remove them Harry was powerless to protect them from his surrounding bodyguards.

"You two better get out of here before we throw you both in jail for assault!" Moody shouted at the two little boys even as Harry stepped forward to talk to them. The twins came back just then and took the teary eyed boys onto the train but Harry was left to turn on the ex-auror.

"Allow me to explain to you that you will not talk to my friends that way and I don't want or need your protection. So as far as I am concerned you and Dumbledore can both go straight to hell!" He stated dangerously before storming onto the train and into the twins compartment where they had seated both Neville and the cubs.

"Harry, have you lost your mind completely? Moody looks like he's about to blow that magical eye of his at whatever you said!" George exclaimed as both he and Fred pressed their noses to the glass. After they were sure that nothing amusing was going to happen if they turned their eyes away they both looked at him.

"What did you say to him, mate?" Fred was the one to ask.

"Before or after he stated that both the ex-auror and headmaster of Hogwarts could go to hell?" ask a very smug Draco Malfoy from his position leaning against their doorway. Harry just glared at the blonde but nodded for him to sit regardless of his annoyance because the Slytherin standing just inside a compartment of Gryffindors was bound to draw some serious attention.

"I didn't hear you even come in Draco, shouldn't you be hexing muggleborn first years in some other far off compartment?" Harry asked him shortly, showing his displeasure and making the young Malfoy look down in shame.

It seemed as if Harry had more clout in this family than he was giving himself credit for, "I ditched my housemates right after my father left and came to find you. I thought that maybe you wanted to talk to all of us instead of waiting until we got to Hogwarts."

Harry just got up and made sure that the compartment was locked, "I did want to talk to you together but I don't think that a crowded train filled with your housemates was the right time given our history. Sit down before we take off and the train puts you on your ass. How did you hear what I said to Alastor?" Harry demanded as the blonde pureblood took the seat next to Collin who was now sitting between Draco and Neville. Daniel was sitting between the twins so Harry took the seat in front of the window and laid his head back onto it.

"My father and I were just coming through the gate when you went off on him. He found it rather amusing but I assumed that they must have really been pushing you for that kind of public display. My dad said that you might still come to our side yet." Draco said but then tried to take back, "I didn't mean, I mean I'm on whatever side you all are on it's just that..." Harry rushed to calm him down, "What side I'm on is yet to be determined. I have to talk to your head of house about that actually," Everyone started to stare at him with wide eyes, "What, oh Snape, don't worry I have a parley to come out of that meeting alive."

Neville was the one to recover first, "Harry he hates you, I don't think such a parley exists and I thought that you were firmly planted into the light. I mean I'm with you but none of us were expecting you to flip." He got out after a few stutters and Draco nodded as if he agreed with his brother's statement. Harry just shrugged to all of them in response; he wasn't showing all of his cards to anyone just yet, not even his pride.

"Things have changed over the summer; everyone might have to be willing to make some parleys with people we aren't comfortable with if things should go as I think they will. Don't worry Snape isn't going to kill me, I'll be careful." he tried to assure them but he noticed the twins sharing a look with one another, "What are you two doing?" Harry demanded, he wanted no surprises from them this year, he couldn't afford it.

"Well, and don't be mad at Neville, but he wrote to us and ask why you were inquiring about Vivianne Malfoy earlier this summer and we were just wondering if this change of heart had anything to do with her." Fred offered as he tried to put their thoughts into few words but the name caught Draco's attention.

"You were asking about my aunt? How did you even know about her? I haven't talked to you people all summer, someone please fill me in on how she got involved in this!" Draco said with a bit more volume than necessary.

Harry hushed him then waved his hand and put a silencing charm up on the door, "Look, yes she does have something to do with this but it's complicated. Draco no one is trying to leave you out, they don't know anymore about this than you but I need to talk with Professor Snape about some things I found over the summer before we talk about this in more depth. If what I think is right, we are going to be in for one hell of a ride this year," Harry told them all honestly.

The oldest boys all shared a look but Harry's trick had caught the all too silent Creevy's attention, "Harry, look what we learned to do over the summer!" shouted little Daniel as a fireball appeared in his hand.

Draco who was sitting a short ways away laughed, "Oh yeah, look at this!" The fire from Draco started to morph until it was clearly in the shape of a Dragon. They all started to show off their new skills from the summer but by the time night fell, the cubs have fallen asleep against George and Neville.

Harry was starting to get tired when he realized a startling fact, "Draco, what are you going to tell the others when you go back. You can't stay in here with a bunch of Gryffindors for the night as much as I hate it."

Draco seemed to be at a loss for ideas so they all started to think but it was the twins to find a solution. They pulled out a new invention and set it loose on the blonde haired boy but his hair soon turned pink, "Just say we were holding you hostage but don't set them loose on us." They said the last part in unison.

Draco was very relieved to have an excuse for his absence even if his hair was a startling hot pink and he was going to have to explain it to his fellow Slytherins. He left shortly after the job was done on his hair and the twins promised it would fade in two hours.

The rest of the boys started to get themselves ready to sleep, they were going to arrive at Hogwarts a little earlier than they had in previous years because of 'security'. Harry knew what a crock that was because Draco had mentioned in his letter earlier that Voldemort wanted Hogwarts in one piece so therefore he wasn't going to attack there and if he knew surely Dumbledore knew but he had bigger fish to fry at this point.
