Author's Note: This is my first Harry Potter fanfic, I know there'll be a couple times I may lose my way so bear with me. I'm not J.K. Rowling so be kind when you review.
Disclaimer: Also I do not own the rights to Harry Potter or any of his co- stars. The situation and a few guests to the Harry Potter world are from my warped mind.
I warn you now this is rated R just to be on the safe side I'm used to writing action/adventure comics with.Ahem gratuitous violence.
I'm sorry if these chapters are really short. I'm working very carefully on each one. I really hope you enjoy them. Please review and tell me what your think.

Harry Potter and the Icons of Myth
Chapter 7: Sweet Dreams are Made of These
A quiet descended upon Hogwarts' School of Witchcraft and Wizardry only marred by the barely audible snoring and the scratching of a quill on parchment. A dim light shown from between the curtains of Harry's bed. He rubbed the bridge of his nose and shifted his glasses back into place. He'd been writing in a furious manner ever since awaking from a strange dream. His journal slipped down as he shifted in his bed and reading over the events of the day.

I'm glad I decided to join Hermione in the library today. I didn't really learn anything new about Voldemort, well except for him being a swordsman and dueling champion. Hermione and Ron seemed to have found out some more useful bits of information.
After we met back up with Ron, in the Common Room, and headed to dinner he told us all about how his and Malfoy's ancestor fought Dark Mages in the 'Asgard War'. I was just as surprised, as he was to find out that there used to be some pretty decent Malfoy's running around. This Lucas character seemed like a pretty good guy. I wonder what Malfoy was so upset about? It couldn't be because Gregory killed his ancestor.
Hermione says that, "it might have been because a Weasley had to avenge a Malfoy in the first place. You know how arrogant Draco is plus it appears that both Ron and Draco may have been named after these particular individuals."
Hermione's probably right, she usually is. She suggested that we start looking into becoming Animagi. This is something I wouldn't expect from Hermione. Ron's right we've had a bad influence on her these past years. I want to be an Animagi like my father was but I'm not really sure about the way she wants to go about it. She wants to try an old Daemoniac ritual that will give us the use of animal senses in our human form. I think it'd be a great skill if and when I have to face Voldemort again, but she wants us to include Draco in on it. Learning to transform will be hard enough without the added pressure of an unknown ritual and a backstabbing Slytherin around. She keeps saying that it's very advanced magic and we'll need all the energy we can get in order for it to work right.
I'm going to write to S. and ask him about he and my dad's first transformation. He may be able to help out somehow. I wish I knew where he was right now but all things considered it's probably too dangerous for me to know. I'm sure he's all right though.
Hermione told me that she'd be the one to ask Draco about his help. I don't think that was such a good idea. It turned out was right too. She came back saying something about arrogant Slytherins and then some un- Hermione-like things. We've still decided to do it though during the next New Moon which is on February 10th.
After finally settling all of that I thought I'd at least get a goodnight's sleep but I was wrong. I ended up having someone else's nightmare. I'm not sure who it was because everything was so distorted. I see myself and then someone shouts my name. I get thrown off balanced by something and then a man is hit with the killing curse and a stabbing curse. Then everything goes black and it feels like my body is being pulled somewhere piece-by-piece. (Yawn!) I wonder what it all means?

In his chambers, Dumbledore wakes gasping for air and clutching his chest. The acrid taste of bile filling his throat begins to clear. "Iluminare!" he says. As light floods the room he wipes away the cold sweat from his brow and tries to remember what has awakened him only to find he cannot remember a single detail. As he dawned a robe he stalked into his office removed the pensieve from its place on the shelf. The thoughts of a moment ago flow from his mind and into the pensieve. He examines the contents only to find darkness.
"Most peculiar." He says as he looks over his half-moon spectacles.
