Chapter One- The Girl and Dream

A boy ran down a dark corridor, his footsteps echoing off the stonewalls. There was a voice calling to him, "Help me....," it whispered, over and over again. For what seemed like hours the voice had been drawing ever near, at each corner he expected to see the body of the voice.

There was never anyone there, but at the end, out of the corner of his eye, he would see a ghostly figure, but when he turned to look at it, it wasn't there.

This time, when he went around the corner, he saw the speaker. It was a child, dressed in the robes of the finest silk, dyed sky blue, her golden hair braided and tied back. She had large blue eyes, which were staring at him intently.

"Art thou the one I seek?" she asked.

The boy just looked at her questionably for a moment before answering, "I am not sure. Who is the one you are looking for?"

The girl just smiled and floated towards him. "I seek one who is strong enough to control the amulet."

"Amulet?"

"Yes, the Dragonblood Amulet."

The boy blinked at her. He had heard that name before. He concentrated on his magic books. Charms..... What was it...? The boy opened his eyes. The girl was gone.

"Come back!" he called over and over. There was no answer.

There was a soft whoosh, and he felt a razor-sharp pain on his nose. "Coo! Coo!" The boy gasped in pain.

There was a sharp pinch, and Harry Potter awoke.

* * * * * * * * * *

Harry sat up in his bed, shocking the snow-white owl, which was perched on his chest. "Sorry..." he muttered. Hedwig hooted at him angrily.

He stumbled over to his desk and pulled out an owl treat from a small package. Turning, he tossed it to his owl.

She caught it with a happy hoot and started to eat it.

After getting dressed, he walked down the stairs to the kitchen. His Uncle Vernon had his large head hidden behind the newspaper. Dudley, his overly large cousin, who had been on a diet since last year, was miserably eating his toast and applesauce. His Aunt Petunia was craning her neck towards the window, snooping on the law-abiding citizens next door.

"Morning." He muttered sleepily. Uncle Vernon grunted, his way of acknowledging his presence, but neither

Dudley nor his aunt paid any attention to them. He retrieved a plate and put two pieces of toast on it.

Things had grown a little better for him over the summer, Dudley's diet was lessening and he was getting to eat more now, and in another three months he would get to go back to school.

Harry thought fondly of going back to Hogwarts, to see Ron, Hermione, and Hagrid, though he wouldn't miss seeing his rival, Draco Malfoy. Too bad it's another three months, he thought, remembering the ride home from the station a week ago. Sighing, he quickly finished his breakfast and hurried up the steps.

Settings down at his desk, took out parchment and quill, and started to write a letter to his godfather, Sirius Black. But just as he was heading it, a grey owl flew into his window, landing on his bed face down.

Harry walked over and untied the letter that was attached to his leg. He lifted Errol up and put him in Hedwigs' cage to drink some water.

Setting down where Errol landed, Harry tore open the letter and read:

Dear Harry,

This is Ron. Mum wanted to know if you could come and stay with us for the rest of the summer. Dad got a brand new car, and he says I can come pick you up in it!It's so cool! It's a 2001 Ford convertible, and its black with red racing stripes down the side!!

Wondering how we got the car? Dad got a new job. HE'S THE NEW MINISTER OF MAGIC!!!! We got a new mansion and everything! Percy is now dad's personal assistant! This is so cool.

Were inviting Hermione over too! We've go so much new stuff!

Fred and George have the basement of the house stocked with Weasley Wizard Wheezes items. Some how they got all kinds of money, even before Dad's new job. They even got me a new pair of dress robes. This is so amazing. I never thought we'd be rich!!!

We'll can't wait for your answer, send it back ASAP!

-Ron

PS I sent Pig with Hermione's letter.

Harry was ecstatic! He was going to get to stay with Ron and the rest of the Weasleys! His dream was shattered to pieces as he remembered what happened last time the Weasleys came to get him. The had destroyed the fireplace, and dusted half the house in a fine white powder. Harry sighed.

Making his way back down the stairs, he re-entered the kitchen. He walked over to his Uncle Vernon and cleared his throat.

"Well, what do you want?" he snarled at Harry. Harry kept his nerves about him and answered, "I want to go to the Weasleys house for the rest of summer."

Uncle Vernon start at the name. Where have I heard that name before, he wondered to himself. "Weasley?" he asked. Harry nodded.

"You remember, those people of the red hair who came here l-" Harry was cut off by a gasp from his uncle.

"Those people!! The one's who wrecks our house! Blew off the boards on the fireplace!!" he sputtered. His large face was going from purple to a dark red, and his mustache start to shake quickly. His beady eyes twitched as he spoke next, "You! Room!"

"But---"

"NOW!!!!!!"

Harry quickly nodded and rushed up the steps. He went to his room and shut the door behind him. He had never seen his uncle get that mad before.

He heard the stairs creek as someone approached his room. The footsteps drew closer. Then they stopped.

Harry crept over to the door. He twisted the knob on the door quickly and glanced out into the hall. He saw no one. He shut the door and sat down at his desk.

"Thou art indeed the one that I have been seeking...." Harry stood and turned, sending his chair crashing to the ground. On his bed sat the little girl, staring at him.

Without thinking he spoke, "Who are you?" he asked the little figure.

She leapt down from the bed, and walked over to him. "I am Icicle Silverstar. I was the keeper of the Dragonblood Amulet," she said simply.

"What is that?" Harry asked. "It is an amulet that has the blood of the first dragon. It will increase your strength and magical spells. Also, if you have enough willpower, it will summon dragons. I tried. I was not strong enough."

"That was the penalty? Death?" she nodded.

Harry gulped, "Are you sure I am the one?" again she nodded.

"You will have this when the time is right." With a small pop she was gone.

Harry sat down at his desk, sighing. He decided to write Ron a reply. Pulling his parchment and quill back to him, he got comfortable.

Dear Ron,

Today has been weird. Some strange ghost appeared in my room. I dreamt about her also. Well, enough about that. My uncle is mad because of what happened last time. Come pick me up anyways though, I need the vacation. I'll send Hedwig out as soon as she returns from hunting. Pick me up ASAP!!!!!! I'm already packed and waiting!!!

-Harry

PS Say hi to your mum and the rest for me!

Harry rolled it up tightly and tied it with a ribbon. He sat it on his trunk, so he wouldn't forget to send it.

Lying back on his bed, he closed his eyes and imaged his friends and school. On September the 1st he would be heading back to Hogwarts.

Harry tried to fight off sleep, but it was a losing battle. In the end, he finally rested peacefully. No dreams came this night.
