Harry was infuriated. He had no idea where they apparated too, and he had just seen Draco and Lucius Malfoy, and barely even attempted to kill, not to mention even hurt either one of them! Also, the fact that Omorose was bleeding badly and they made no attempt to heal her, and that she could be in even more danger by now.

"Calm down, mate, it'll be ok." Ron tried to say, but it didn't help at all.

"Oh, oh, oh. OH!" Harry yelled angrily, "And this is coming from someone who was inches away from getting hit by the Avada Kedavera curse?!!! Not to mention, she saved you Ron! She saved your life! And you don't even attempt to help find her??!!!"

"Listen, mate, of course I do!" he said calmly, "But there's nothing we can do at the moment, they could be in a whole other country by now! Who knows?!"

Harry made an angry/frustrated sort of groan as he sat down, exhausted from yelling. or it could also be the fact that he got twenty minutes of sleep the past night.

"Listen, Harry," Ron said, "I think the best thing for you to do now is to get some rest, just, recover your strength." -- Ron instantly knew that he had said the wrong thing from the angry look that Harry gave him -- "I - I mean so you'll be able to clear your head, you're not thinking straight."

"Ron," Harry said annoyingly, "I'm fine -- "

"Please, Harry," Ron said, "If you're not gonna do it for yourself, do it for me?" he begged.

"Ron," Harry said, breathing deeply, "Listen, I don't sleep much anymore. I just have more and more dreams of - of Hermione's death. I just can't take it anymore. "

Ron sighed, "Harry. I know how frustrating that may be. but, you can't just. not sleep. "

Harry sighed, "I know, I know. I guess I'll get a bit of sleep now. but after that we're going to go out there to find her, alright?"

"Sure." Ron said, happy that he had finally won the fight.

Harry went back to his room, exhausted. and a bit happy, though he would never admit it, that Ron made him rest.

He lied down on his bed, and soon drifted off into a deep sleep. * * *

"Harry. " a sweet, calm, and distant voice echoed throughout his room. He opened his eyes and looked around, and there was Hermione, she was intoxicating. Hermione wore a long white dress, and had a transparent veil over her face.

"Hermione - " he was speechless.

She smiled sweetly at him.

"This is a dream -- " he said.

"Yes, it is, and you must wake up." she answered, still smiling.

"I don't want to, I want this to last forever." he said, sadly.

She gently ran the tips of her fingers against his cheek, lovingly.

"So do I, but we do not have much time, Harry. " she answered.

"Listen, and listen closely." she said, sternly. "Grab your invisibility cloak and disapparate to The Ministry of Magic, Voldemort has taken control there. Go alone, you will find what you're looking for. Now go Harry, wake up Harry, wake up. "

"Wake up Harry, wake up." she repeated over and over again, until Harry found himself in bed, and with no trace of Hermione. He sighed sadly, and did what he was told to do; he grabbed his invisibility cloak, and disapparated to The Ministry of Magic.

He found himself amongst many people. and every single one of them carried the dark mark -- they were death-eaters. Harry looked around, curiously, for signs of Voldemort, but all he saw was the weird looking, old man he had seen with Omorose earlier. just then, the man's facial features changed into that of a snake. it was, standing feet away from him, the dark lord -- Voldemort. It took him a lot of strength to not run up to him and curse him to death, but he managed (barely) to stay where he was.

Just then, he heard a door kicked open and saw Lucius and Draco Malfoy walk in, both grasping each of Omorose's arms harshly. She was fussing and kicking, but was not strong enough to get away from them.

Harry's eyes then turned to Voldemort, who was smirking, "Oh, Omorose. " he said in a fake kind voice, "You just never stop, do you, girl?"
