Chapter 4
Year: Second
The summer pretty much sucked for Harry minus the few days he got to sneak away and see his family. None of his supposed friends wrote to him, not even Draco under his alias name. And to make matters worse a house elf dropped a cake on his uncle's boss's wife's head. He then found out that same elf had been stealing his letters in order to make Harry not want to go back to Hogwarts. There was a complaint lodged at the Ministry for Improper Use of Under Age Magic, only Lucius Malfoy who worked at the Ministry also noticed before it could get to the Minister Cornelius Fudge, and took care of it.
Fortunately he was broken out of the Dursley's by the Weasly twins, Fred and George and Ron as well, using their flying Ford Anglia. Draco's owl left a letter there for Harry about meeting at Diagon Alley with Hedwig who soaked the letter in her water spitefully. Harry took hold of the wet paper and binned it the evening before the car turned up outside his window.
At the Weasly's he was given more food than he could eat, which was for the best since his uncle tended to starve him. Although, he admitted, being too thin was better then being too fat. They left for Diagon Alley by floo powder and Harry ended up being rescued by Hagrid from Knockturn Alley, having had a slight disagreement with the floo system.
He was practically kidnapped by Gilderoy Lockhart in Flourish and Blots, then he ran into Draco who was angry at being ignored in favour of the Weasly's went out of his way to be cruel to Harry. Lucius noticed that and placed a hand on his sons shoulder silencing him. After looking through Ginny's text books and slipping an extra one in turned and left the store followed by Draco who sneered at Harry, and spent the rest of his shopping trip sulking.
Having not been able to get to the platform once again thanks to Dobby the house elf although Harry didn't know that at the time, Ron and he flew to school in the enchanted car, were almost run over by the Hogwarts Express and crashed into the Whomping Willow when the fuel ran out. Ron broke his wand and they were both almost crushed by tree branches.
Angry at his son for missing the train and almost getting killed on the first day back, Snape threatened to have them both expelled, but settled for detention. School got back into full swing, and soon enough the first Defence Against the Dark Arts with the new teacher, Lockhart, came about. Theirs was a pixie chase.
A while after Harry was privileged with the blame when Mrs. Norris was found petrified and hanging by her tail in the corridor, a message written in blood on the wall behind the cat.
The Quiditch match saw him with a Bludger chasing after him, and hitting his arm after he caught the snitch and breaking it. Draco having been made Slytherin Seeker had his father watching who tried to remain impassive when first Harry almost fell off his broom and then broke his arm.
Snape ran towards his son followed by Madame Pompfrey but were too late, as when they got there Lockhardt had already tried to help by vanishing Harry's bones instead of healing them in his right forearm. He spent the night in the hospital wing groaning in pain as his bones were re-grown from scratch.
The house elf showed up again, and admitted to sending the Bludger after him, then punished himself again by banging his head.
Lockhart and Snape duelled first at the Duelling Club, with Snape firing one I 'Expelliarmus' /I curse that not only knocked the wand from the prat's hand, but knocked him to the other side of the class as well.
Severus had warned not to pair Harry and Draco, knowing full well that Draco was still miffed with his son, but the warning only made Lockhart want to see them duel all the more. Harry and Draco began to curse each other, and with a smirk Draco fired once more and a large snake appeared in the middle of the duelling table, sliding towards Harry.
Severus turned to glare at Draco who blushed. The snake forgot about Harry and dived for a gasping, terrified Justin Finch-Fletchley. Harry shouted for the snake to stop and it did, yet everyone turned to stare at Harry in fear including his father. Slowly the snake came far enough away from Justin for Snape to vanish safely. Everyone left the room mumbling about Harry being dark now.
Rolling his eyes in confusion he smiled at Draco and was relieved to see the blond smile back. His 'friends' then told him he hadn't been speaking English at all, and everyone thought he'd ordered the snake to attack Justin. With a growl of annoyance Harry settled himself for the months of rumours and accusations that were sure to come.
People turned up at the medical ward petrified and soon another message was found. Ginny Weasly had been taken into the Chamber of Secrets and as his best friend was the girl's brother, Harry silently apologised to Tom before setting off to find his way inside.
He fought the Basilisk while Tom's memory laughed that all he had for help was Fawkes and a hat, which soon produced the Sword of Gryffindor. After driving the sword into the snake's mouth, a fang was embedded into his right arm, above the elbow where he had previously had his bones grown back up to. Pulling his arm away he stumbled to Ginny who still wouldn't wake up. The fang still in his arm was torn out and plunged into the diary repeatedly until it spurted blood from its pages, Ginny woke up and he slipped into blissful oblivion.
Waking up that time in the hospital wing, Harry was told by Dumbledore how only the utmost faith in him would call Fawkes, and Harry repressed the urge to laugh. He hated the man that could have saved his mother and didn't, even James Potter, the meddling man who ruined his childhood, and Severus' chance at being a father.
As he left the hospital wing, Dumbledore held out a 2 inch fang and Harry took the memento with a grin, sliding it into his pocket he left the ward for the common room.
After arriving at Kings Cross and jumping into the back of his uncle's car with a repressed sigh and a wave to his friends Harry was driven 'home', with Severus following. Later that night he and Lucius appeared with Draco who demanded to go, and knocked softly on the door. Luckily for Harry the other went out for diner and when he opened the door he grinned at the people outside. Inviting them inside, he got them drinks and settled in against his father on the couch.
"I don't appreciate you freeing my house elves." Lucius scolded.
"Elf not elves, unless you wish me to free more." Lucius snorted and took a sip of his wine. "Not that I'm not happy to see you but why are you here?"
"Can I see it?" Draco asked excitedly. Harry frowned and unsure of which he wanted to see just pulled his sleeve up. "Merlin, did it hurt?"
"Like hell." Harry said with a grin. "But the poison started working soon so all I felt was numb after."
Severus scowled. "Did Albus give you the fang?" Harry nodded grinning.
"I didn't get a dream from Tom this time. Sorry I didn't know much but I figured it was him, but being 'best friends' with the victims sister sort of volunteers me to play hero."
"It is fine; we're working on something new as we speak. It'll probably take some time, so you may have a boring year come September." Everyone laughed and spent the next half hour talking about not much. Before, under fear of his relatives meeting his family, Harry ushered them towards the door with hugs, kisses and promises to write soon.

Please review… I know you probably think it's going too fast, but the story is a 6th year fiction… so most of it will take place in 6th year. I'm just giving you, snippets say, of all the others years… the way it really happened:P

Ok for something else... I have another HP fiction called Just…, well that's its name right now, I'm not certain it will be that when it's posted anywhere. But my point, in it Harry is 11 but he's evil and a murderer.
Lucius Malfoy thinks he's hot for a kid, everyone thinks he's hot for a kid, most everyone has fucked him, but my point is Lucius because Harry is Voldemort's son. Would it work or should I make it H/D…
Please don't be biased, I know you guys read H/D but I would like to know from a not so "yay-harry-and-draco-are-the-only-pairing" POV, if that is possible, if not don't bother giving me an answer to this. Thanks!
