reviews! ^_^ YAY!!!!!!!!! READ ON!!!!!!!!!!
Chapter 6
"Potter! Potter!"
Someone was shaking him gently. Slowly he came to. What had just happen? Did he just have a vision of his parents being killed?...His parents had loved each other. His parents had loved him. A muffled sob escaped his throat. He felt empty. Like a huge hole had been punched into his heart. It was as if that man with that terrible laugh had plunged his hand into his head and torn out a piece.
"Potter! Wake up, will you! I'm getting a leg cramp!"
Harry groaned and tried to sit up. He was on the floor, half lying on Malfoy's lap. Slowly, pulled himself up and leaned against the wall. He felt incredibly weak and his head was spinning. He looked around the cabin. The lights were on and the train was moving again. Hermione was back too, a troubled look on her face.
"What happened?" Harry mumbled, desperately hoping that they hadn't seen that he was close to tears.
"Dementors" said Hermione, shoveling chunks of chocolate into Harry's mouth.
Draco, however, didn't seem particularly surprised, "Hmm.."
"Wadsa Damesor?" Harry asked, still trying to swallow mass amounts of chocolate.
"A creature who feeds on the happy emotions of humans. Dementors are employed as guards at Azkaban. The kiss of a Dementor will suck out a human's soul, leaving an emotionless shell." Hermione recited as though she had been reading from a book.
"So what are they doing here?" Harry asked in bewilderment.
"Dementors are dark creatures, so naturally when You-Know-Who came back they returned to do his bidding. He must have sent them on the train" she replied.
"But what would he want with a bunch of students, unless.." Harry trailed off.
".someone tipped him off and he knew you were here" Hermione finished off slowly.
"Hn."
"So where are the Dementors now?" Draco finally spoke.
"Gone. A bunch of teachers were on the train and they got rid of the lot of them" Hermione explained.
Draco didn't reply. For a few minutes they sat in a tense silence. It was almost deafening. Harry wished someone would say something. Anything!
"Potter, why did you scream and collapse? What happened?"
Harry knitted his brows as he looked up at Malfoy. It didn't look like he was asking out of genuine concern, he just seemed curious.
Harry let out a soft "Hn." in acknowledgment. He didn't trust Draco. Honestly, he didn't trust any of them. Then, all of a sudden he had the fleeting desire to be back in the world he knew. With David.Wonder if he misses me..I miss him. Harry could almost picture him. His short, wavy brown hair, his big, brown eyes sparkling with mischief.He could just imagine telling him about the Wizarding world, Hermione, and Malfoy.
// "Your going to save the world?" he'd laugh, but not scornfully. "Wow, who'd've thought Harry Potter would be saving the world".
"But you'll come back, right Harry? You'll come back. And then things can go back to the way they used to be. You'll sneak out of your house to be with me, and we'll play pranks on Dudley, the bulling git! And we'll cheat off each other's tests so we both don't need to study. We'll even get Ms. McGraw back for making us clean the boys' bathroom" he'd smile sadly.
"Just promise you'll come back Harry" his eyes now sparkling with tears, but still sparkling, always sparkling and full of life, "I've always got your back Harry. Don't forget"//
"Potter!"
Harry started. "Sorry. Zoned out for a bit there. What were you saying Malfoy?"
"Never mind Harry. We're here." Hermione cut in.
She was right. The train had stopped. Quickly they exited the train. A huge, hairy man stood at one of the door bellowing, " Firs' years 'ere! Come on now! Firs' years! Firs' years!"
"Who is he?" Harry asked Hermione in astonishment. He didn't think it was possible for anyone to be that huge. It wasn't normal!
"He's Hagrid. The Gamekeeper." Hermione explained.
Draco snorted, trying to hold back his laugher. "Him? He lives in a little hut on the grounds. Usually gets drunk, tries to do magic and ends up setting fire to his bed. He's just Dumbledore's crazy errand man, if you ask me"
"And we didn't ask you!" Hermione shot back at him.
Draco smirked but didn't reply.
"Come on then" she snapped at Harry grabbing his arm and dragging him toward a carriage pulled by huge, winged horse-like creatures, " We better go"
A/N: Okies, the chapter after Aboard the Hogwart's Express was originally supposed to be The Sorting Hat but I decided to add this extra chapter. Hope you like it. So REVIEW REVIEW REVIEW! The more you guys review the faster I write. Reviews are motivation! I like reviews! So when you review, don't forget to tell me which house you think Harry should be in!
