Chapter 4

Unsure what to do next Harry ran a stressed hand though his hair and stared down at the page in front of him. His mind ran a mile a minute as he tried to grasp hold of some sort of understanding. Scanning though the steps quickly Harry let out a heavy sigh, he could not believe what he was going to do, but if he wanted any answers than it looked as if this was the only way he was going to get any.

'Step one, sit in a comfortable position as you could be sitting for a long time and relax. Step two, clear your mind and allow yourself to enter your mind," Harry thought as he went through every single step. 'Step three, make your way through your mind and follow your childhood memories path until you come to a section where it splits off into two parts. Step four, follow the separate path that is a different colour to the one you have been following, at the end of it you should met with your twin. If you do not than continue to follow the path out of the childhood memories all the way until you either met your twin or come to a dead-end. If you do not find your twin than they have either died during the merging process or has at sometime become merged with you and you are now truly your own twin sibling.'

Harry's frown grew as he reread the text several times, not believing what he was reading. By the eighth time of rereading it Harry found himself memorizing the text and read to have a go at it.

'I cannot believe what I am about to do, this must be one of the most stupidest things that I have ever done' Harry thought as he closed the book and once again hid it for safety. 'I wonder just how many people have gone though this if they have had to write a book on it...'

Taking a deep calming breath Harry allowed himself to finally relax as he followed the steps Professor Snape had taught him to clear his mind and enter it. As he entered his mind darkness surrounded Harry only for the darkness to be replaced by a large open meadow filled with tiny flowers hidden amongst the lush green grass.

"Beautiful," Harry whispered to himself softly with a small smile, loving the rare chance to be in such a wide open area even if it was inside his own mind. "I'd like to see what Snape would make of my way of hiding memories."

Remembering the instructions in the book Harry for the first time looked down into the tall grass and searched for a path. Emerald eyes carefully searched only to find it hard thanks to the protective grass that hid not only the path but his memory holding flowers though he found it after several minutes. A well hidden stone like cobble path rest just a few steps in front of him, none of the stone circler stables were harming the memory flowers.

'This must be the path that the book was talking about' Harry thought to himself as he stepped onto the stone path. 'So this path will supposedly lead me to my twin...though I do not have a brother or sister...'

With thoughts about the book and the information he had just learnt Harry walked along the path while keeping an eye out for anything strange. As he walked along the path and past some older looking flowers that rested just before an open wooden gate flashed memories from his childhood. One, of his mother singing him a lullaby, appeared briefly making a soft smile appear on Harry's face as he paused to watch the memory for a moment. Remembering the warning he had received from both Professor Snape and Headmaster Dumbledore about past memories Harry started to walk again only to freeze when he found himself standing in the middle of the open gate.

'One more step...just one more step...I have never walked this far into my mind before. I wonder if it is safe?' Harry thought to himself only to freeze when he a flash of brown caught his attention only to disappear. 'What...what was that?'

Without thinking and curiosity peeped Harry quickly rushed forwards, leaving the safety of his protected meadow in favour of chasing down the brown thing. Thoughts rushed though his mind as Harry chased down the flash of brown, every now and then it showed itself again though in an almost teasing yet hopeful manner.

'What is going on? What does the brown colour belong to?' Harry thought to himself with a frown on his face as he tracked the brown down while unknowingly staying on the stone path, just like the book had said to. 'I wonder if this has anything to do with Dumbledore...he does always try to look students in the eyes...maybe Dumbledore planted something in my mind?'

To lost in his thoughts and the chase of the mysterious brown colour Harry never noticed the path split into two and each path taking two very different directions. One path led to the right hand side and the stepping stones transformed into a leaf shape while taking on a dark green colour while the other path led to the left and had the same leaf design to them but took a more lighter, brighter shade of green.

'I cannot lose it, I will not lose it' Harry thought as he stared straight ahead at the flashes of brown colour while ignoring the path his feet carried him and the stepping stones. He also ignored how the walls around him seemed to be pure black but every now and then bursts of colours crossover them like some strange wild animal. 'Something is calling out to me...I have to answer it.'

With his feet pounding against the path Harry quickly found himself coming around a sharp corner. Using his Quidditch skills to turn Harry skidded to a stop as he found himself now standing in front of a door. The door, much to Harry's confusion looked identical to his bedroom door back at the Dursley's, the only difference was the absence of locks and the cat flap.

"What is going on? Is this meant to be part of the steps that the book mentioned? Did I miss a step or something?" Harry muttered to himself as he slowly took a step forwards with his hand outstretched to push open the strange door. "Whatever I have been following must of gone though this door...it is the only possible direction it could of gone without passing me on the way here."

With his mind made up Harry opened the door and slowly walked into the room. His mind buzzed with different thoughts as he looked around the room. Compared to his room back at Number 4 this room was the complete opposite. Much to Harry's confusion the room looked like a crossover between a bedroom and living room done in what seemed to be a mixture of Gryffindor colours and Slytherin colours.

"You are here? You made finally made it to my room?" a voice asked in a surprised tone making Harry freeze and slowly turn his gaze towards his left. As he did so a strange feeling entered his body, much to Harry's confusion the voice sounded so familiar and comforting yet at the same time so strange and unfamiliar. "I would of thought that the old goat would of never allowed you to even enter your mindscape let alone meet me! I thought I would of had to wait until after Hogwarts to make my move."

As Harry's gaze finally landed on the source of the voice he froze. His heart suddenly felt as if he it had jumped into his throat, his legs began to shake while confusion and shock washed though his body. As emerald green eyes met emerald green eyes Harry could not help the gasp of surprise.

"You! You..." Harry stuttered out in shock as he stared at the new person in shock. "You look just like..."
