**Forgot this in the first chapter, "Don't own anything, just doing
this for fun. JK Rowling owns mostly everything except for plot and some
OC.**
The next week passed without any interruptions, except for the occasional pranks that Peeves pulled.
Time flew by as Harry did his homework, attended to classes and Quidditch practice, about a week before Halloween, Harry had another one of his vision/dream of Voldemort.
"My Lord, are you sure that is wise?" One of the Death Eaters asked Voldemort. They were standing in a semi-circle around the Dark Lord, and every one of them seemed nervous.
"Are you questioning my command, Avery?" Voldemort whispered, "Crucio." He sent towards the Death Eater, it was about 30 seconds before he lifted the curse, the Death Eater kneeled on the floor, kissing Voldemort's hem of his cloak.
"Thank you my lord, thank you. It won't happen again, you are the wisest…" He stopped abruptly when Voldemort held up his hand.
"It is decided then, we attack Hogwarts at the night of Halloween. Go and warn your children or do whatever you want, you have a week to prepare."
"And the warts my lord?" Harry recognized the voice as Malfoy's.
"I have found a way around them. All you need to do is bring your wand." Voldemort spat before he turned around, "Go and do what you have to, meet me here at the night of Halloween."
Harry woke up with a jerk, something happened in his dream, he couldn't remember what, but something important happened.
Halloween, what was it about Halloween that was so important? O, that's right, Voldemort was planning on attacking the school at the night of Halloween. He has to tell someone about this.
His first thoughts went to Dumbledore, but then remembered that he's not in the school anymore. Seleo then, he had seemed trustworthy.
He quickly pulled out his invisibility cloak from his trunk, and rummaged through his belongings to find the Marauder's Map.
He walked silently out of the Gryffindor Common Room, and went straight to the Headmaster's office, checking the map at every turn and corner, thankfully, the only ones in the hallway was his and professor Binns.
He stopped in front of the Gargoyles guarding the door to the headmaster's office, and guessed every candy he could think of, before realizing that Dumbledore is not there anymore, which means the password is not a kind of candy anymore.
He swore under his breath. He didn't know what to do, he doesn't know who he could trust in the school anymore. He knew he could trust McGonagall, but he had no idea where her office was. Snape, he didn't like him, but he was his only hope. He knew where his office was, thanks to the incident in his third year, so it was all Harry could do to not run there. He walked quickly and silently, something he had lots of practice of during the past years at Hogwarts.
He stopped in front of Snape's office, he didn't know if this is a good idea or not. He could always tell Seleo tomorrow at breakfast, but then decided against it. They needed all the time they could get, meaning that he should tell someone right NOW.
He rapped on the door genteelly, and to his surprise, he heard somebody say, "Come in," and the door opened.
He slipped into Snape's office, to find it warm and kind of cozy. There were two sofas beside the fireplace, and Snape was sitting in the one facing Harry, playing chess with someone.
"Potter! Why are you out of bed? Fifty points-" Snape did get a chance to finish his sentence.
"Harry? Why are you here?" Harry recognized that voice as Seleo's. "Severus, wait and hear what he has to say."
"Voldemort, he's going to attack the school at Halloween night." Harry almost shouted.
"WHAT?" was the answer from both professors.
"I knew I should have gone to the meeting today." Snape muttered to himself, but Harry caught it anyways.
"what about the warts, there are hundreds of them!" Seleo asked, he was calm once again.
"I don't know, but he said he found a way around them, and is going to attack on Halloween." Harry said.
"Thank you for telling me this, twenty points to Gryffindor, however, I have to take away ten for being out of bed so late." Seleo said, as if they just had a normal, peaceful conversation.
"Don't you understand, professor?" Harry shouted, "I didn't tell you so I could earn points, I told you so you could get ready for the attack! Why are you so calm?"
"Yes, I'm sure it's a LOT better to panic and abandon the school." Seleo said again, smiling, "Don't worry Harry, I'll take care of things."
"How? Put more warts up?" Harry asked, a bit embarrassed about what he had said to him ealier.
"I'm afraid we can't prevent him from coming on to the grounds, not with only a week left, but I will prevent him from hurting anyone." Seleo said, then frowned, "Did he say how he's going to get around the warts?"
"No, he just said he found a way around them, and he said all they needs to bring is their wand."
"They? Who are they?" Snape asked, though he had a pretty good idea who 'they' were.
"The Death Eaters, he has a lot of them." Harry said.
"You don't think he's going to bring Dementors, do you?" Snape asked Seleo.
"No, not this time. He will, in the future." Seleo said, then turned to face Harry, "Harry, I want you here everyday at seven in the afternoon, in Severus' office. I want you to skip Divination, Care of Magical Creatures and History of Magic. Every time you have those courses or when you have free block, I want you in my office. Severus and I, we're going to train you so that you're ready. Since Voldemort is mainly after you."
"Yes sir." Harry said.
"Not a word of this to anyone, I will inform the teachers in the morning. Don't even tell Ron and Hermione, not to anyone. Not even Sirius or Remus, got it?" Seleo said.
"Yes sir." Replied Harry.
"Good, go back to bed, I'll write you a note so you don't have to use the cloak anymore, or the map for that matter." Seleo said as he bent down to write the not for Harry.
"Thank you sir." Was all Harry could say, wondering how Seleo could have known about how he got here.
"Don't worry about it, I'll see you tomorrow." Seleo said, and Harry knew it was his cue to leave. He went back to the Tower, and ventured into a dreamless sleep. Somehow, though he doesn't know how, Seleo's words had calmed him a great deal, and to think, no Divination till Halloween, it not really so bad.
Back in Snape's office, the two men were sitting in complete silence.
"When are you going to tell him, James?" Snape asked the man sitting in front of him.
"Soon, maybe tomorrow, when he comes for his lessons." James Potter said.
"I still hope you could have thought of a better than using your middle name, it's far too obvious, not to mention it sounds ridiculous." Snape said.
"That was very nice of you," James smiled and said, "I still hope that you could have washed your hair once in a while, it looks so greasy, not to mention it will be good for your personal hygiene if you do wash it once in a while."
"Shut up," Snape barked, and smirked after, "At least my hair is nice and neat, unlike yours."
"Neat, yeah sure, but nice? I don't think so."
So the conversation between James Seleo Potter and Severus Snape went on, while in their minds, they're both thinking about one thing. 'how are we going to get Harry ready in one week before the attack?'
**I hope you enjoy the story so far, it's not slash between Snape and James, just so you know. Like I said, they're half brothers. Don't ask me where the idea of making the two of them related came from, it just popped into my mind. This is kind of in the middle of Harry's fifth year. I have read the fifth book, and I will make the ending similar to the fifth one, with Sirius dieing and Harry finding out why Voldemort wants to kill him. Dumbledore is going to return to the school soon, don't worry… Reviews please, tell me what you thought?**
