Chapter Seven: First Dream, Day one

Two swirls to the right, flick up, flick down, swish to the left, and point!

"Very good, Mr. Nott." The Professor praised each student as he walked by. Harry nodded his head, not actually listening to what the Professor was saying.

"No, no, no, Mr. Weasley. It's 'vi-ole-sa', not 'vi-ole-saw'! Please get it right."

Ron mumbled something under his breath about incompetent charms and stupid professors. Hermione shook her head and took his wand from him claiming he was "too incompetent to wield one".

Harry watched in amusement from his side of the classroom. It was a pleasant surprise when he found that the Slytherins had Double Charms with some of the Gryffindors as well as some of the Ravenclaws.

"Harry, we need to leave."

The brunette turned his head to find Nott packing his stuff. Draco's stuff was already neatly put away and Pansy looked as if she were ready to bolt.

Draco turned to Harry. "Get ready. We don't have much time," he in a low voice.

Harry nodded and began to silently got his stuff together, only to be interrupted by the cool headed bushy haired Gryffindor.

"Harry! Do you have a free block next? If you do, would you like to come for a vist to the Gryffindor common room?"

Harry felt Draco's hand firmly grip his shoulder. "I do, but I already have plans, maybe next time."

"You sure they're treating you ok, mate?"

"Please refrain from calling Potter your 'mate'," Draco replied, easing right into the conversation.

"Who-"

"Students! Please make sure you practice the wand movements and correct pronunciation. I want a flawless presentation from everyone, including you Mr. Weasley."

Harry muffled his laughter and grabbed his stuff. Draco was one step in front of him and waiting at the door.

"So, Harry," Ron started as he turned back to his friend, but Harry was already walking out the door behind Draco. Nott was close behind with Pansy at his side.

"Come Ron, we need to get going. I know you have come reading to do."

Ron just stared at Hermione.

"What? Is there something on my face?" Hermione's hands flew to her face and Ron shook his head in a negative. "Then what's wrong?" Ron still stayed quiet. "Ron! What is it? Tell me!"

"Wh-why… did-didn't you…"

"What is it? Spit it out already!"

Ron swallowed and tired again.

"Harry. He left. You. Leaving to read. Not concerned at all."

"Harry, again? What's up with you? You got a crush on him? Are you jealous of him or something?"

Ron's face was soon redder than his hair.

"No!"

Hermione smiled. "Well then," she said. "Then I guess this topic of conversation is over." Hermione eyed Ron for a moment. "Right?"

Ron took one look at the look Hermione was giving him and decided that maybe he should bring it up later… now wasn't a good time. So, he simply nodded and followed the girl out of the classroom.


"… I still don't understand what that has to do with anything."

"Come now, are you telling me you don't see the connection?"

"Be nice. He's just a little slow on the up take."

"Hey! I am not!"

"He's not slow!"

"Thank you!"

"He's just… special."

"You're right." Pause. "I'm sorry."

"Please! What were we talking about?"

"…"

Harry sighed. "You were comparing Quiditch to Charms and then went into Transfiguration. After that, it was Pansy's new candidate for Princess and then something about the fruit at breakfast and lunch."

The table was silent.

"I swear! I could totally see him doing that swirling, swishing move on the broom during a match! It would be a great play!"

"But how could you make it work? And besides, the spiraling from Transfiguration today would be a better choice!"

"No, that would be too complicated."

"I agree."

"Hey!" Everyone turned toward Harry. "Could we stick to one subject at a time? Please?"

Draco gave a small snort before agreeing with him.

"Yes, we should get down to business anyway." Draco shifted in his seat. "Ok, Pansy has submitted her request for the trials for the first-year Slytherin, Maggie Fields. All of those opposed to the request have until Wednesday to speak up."

Everyone nodded.

"Next, Nott has brought the list of all potential newbies to be considered for positions. Please keep an eye on these students at all times."

Nodding again.

"At the next House Gathering, we will need to have a ready list of those who will be trained. I want all of you to come up with a training schedule for your place at this table by Wednesday night."

They nodded. Harry watched.

"Another thing, are all of your partners available Wednesday?"

Harry looked on as the others nodded once again. I wonder if their heads are going to roll off from all the nodding they're doing…

"Good." Draco waved his wand over the papers before him leaving the table clean. "Anything else?"

"I think we should take the time to go over the legend," Nott spoke up. "I don't think it's a coincidence that you are the 'Prince' of Slytherin and Harry is now your 'Guardian'."

"I must agree with that," Pansy cut in. "Although we have no idea what the Prince and his Guardian actually looked like, I think we should take into account that if you two are a part of the legend, specifically the two main characters, it is going to affect everything else."

Harry stopped tracing the figures in the table.

"I'm sure we'll be able to handle any problems that come if it is so, but I also think we shouldn't jump to conclusions." Harry's fingers went back to their exploration.

"It will be interesting to see the results of this situation," Draco added. "Think about it this way: it will add a little excitement to our now boring, mundane lives."

Harry tune out the rest of the conversation and before he knew, the group parted ways to head off to bed.

Harry had no idea how tired he was until his head hit the pillow and he was fast asleep.


"Isidore, come on! Your people want to see you!" A voice called out.

"Coming!"

A man stepped out of his dressing rooms clad in a deep emerald green.

"You're so impatient sometimes."

"And your too slow, my Prince."

The Prince laughed.

"Come now, Malak. Hopefully I am not too slow for you?"

The winged man laughed heartily and pulled the other into his embrace.

"Nay, not for me."

The scene began to darken, Harry reached out, trying to grasp onto it in a futile attempt.

And then there was complete darkness.

"Isidore! Isidore, come down here!" The voice was soft and musical. "Hurry or I'll have to send Faolán to get you!

"I love you," A man's husky deep voice spoke out.

"Isidore, son, I'm proud of you." Warmth and strength.

"Don't ever leave me." There! 'Who are you?' "I would do anything for you. Even forsake my own kind." 'Who?'

"Die, Guardian!"


Harry awoke with a start. His breathing was ragging and his heart felt as if it were torn in two. He brought a hand up to wipe the sweat from his brow wondering why he was sweating when he felt so cold.

He look over to check the time, a blur. Squinting, he could just make out the numbers.

1:30.

As I said before, this is not one of my favorite chapters... shrugs. Oh well.. I really like the next one! And the chapters get longer! Yup! You heard right! LONGER! Wheeeeeeeee!

So, those reviews! Wow! I'm going to need a little more time to get chapter eight beta-ed, finish the end of chapter nine, and work on ten.…. So, I think somewhere a little over 200 would be a great place to post…. I plan on trying to post on Friday… if I get nine done as well! Cheers!

REVIEWS! .
