Destinies Intertwined
Chapter 4
Disclaimers and notes in the prologue. Basically, I don't own them.
There will also be some MAJOR OOC in here, but please bear with me...
Oh, this is also set after the sixth book and year!! That means they will be Seventh years! However, the events in the 5th book did NOT happen.
Rating: R, but please tell me if that is too severe for this story.
Pairing: Harry/Draco of course!

### Dream in progress ###
"Make sure you gather up all those whom have not been killed, you insolent piece of scum," the sibilant echoed around the destroyed house, making even his loyalist Death Eaters shiver in fear. Cowering at his feat, the one who betrayed his closest friends received a hard kick in the side for not bowing low enough. Once the last of the prisoners were apparated away from the carnage site, mostly women and children being taken away, Voldemort grinned and sent his signature up into the air above the ruins of a once proud house. After apparating away, he never saw the two pairs of eyes watching filled with fear and hatred. Harry was then swept away from the carnage, and the question of who these eyes belonged to, to a dark chamber where all of the women and children who Voldemort had captured were shackled to the walls. Voldemort himself circled around, looking at each one of the prisoners before letting his Death Eaters loose on the women. After choosing two of his liking, he had them brought to his personal chambers, before giving the Death Eaters leave to do as they please. Closing his eyes because of the horrible sight before him, Harry could not keep the screams from the rape taking progress before him from his covered ears.
As soon as the screams started, though, they stopped. Opening his eyes, Harry was astonished to find that he was not in the chamber anymore. Instead he was in the Chamber of Secrets, and the dead body of the basilisk was gone. In fact, the Chamber looked almost new, not all damp and scary as he remembered it. Then, almost as soon as he noticed this, he felt himself being whisked away, and the vision of the Chamber disappeared from his view.
### End Dream Sequence ###
Harry woke with a start, and looked at the clock beside his bed. Murmuring a quiet 'tempus,' the clock started to glow, and the time stood out in the dark. "5:15... Bloody Hell, this is too early to wake up. Rolling over, the green eyed boy fell quickly back to sleep, this time to a dreamless landscape, though he stored what had happened away in his head for a time when he was more coherent.

After both boys finally got up (at around 8:30 ish), they made their way together to the Great Hall, following the barely discernable snakes that guided them to the more commonly used part of the castle. After a quick breakfast, the two followed Severus, who told them that he was going to start their training.
"Mr. Potter, have you been practicing the Occulemency that I began to teach you?" Severus asked in a conversational voice.
'What the hell? Snape being conversational??' Harry thought, stunned. 'Well, might as well take advantage of his good mood while it lasts...'
"I have some, but it never really works. I don't think I have it down very well, though."
"Well, if it isn't working, then you do not have it down. One thing, Mr. Potter. While we will be working together very closely from now on, at least closer during the summer than after, I do not believe that the strife between us should continue."
Harry just looked at him, thinking 'isn't he the one who "hates" me? He is the one who always provokes me... Oh well, might as well go with this while he is in his good mood.' Slowly, Harry nodded his head to indicate that he agreed. 'This may be as close to an apology as I am going to get with Snape.'
"Good. Now, this is the room in which we will be practicing Occulemency. I have shielded tightly so no one knows what is happening in here. Not even Albus will know what happens. I hope you both remembered the way here? I will not be showing you again, and I expect you both to be here at precisely ten o'clock each morning."
Because he had been listening to what Severus had been saying, Harry did not know how they had gotten there, though Draco was nodding his head ever so slightly. 'I must remember to come here tomorrow with him, and to pay attention on the way.'
"Now, if you would both come this way, I will show you to the practice room in which we will be going over physical defense training." With that, Severus turned and strode down the corridor.
Moving quickly, the boys caught up with the striding professor as they reached a slightly hidden door on the right side of the corridor. Once inside, Harry stifled a small gasp as he looked around.
"I know this place! This is where Fluffy was kept in first year."
"Who's Fluffy?" Draco asked, completely confused. At least, he was before it dawned on him who would be simple enough to name an animal 'Fluffy.' "Wait, let me guess. One of Hagrid's 'pets.'"
"Fluffy was a three headed dog that was helping guard the Sorcerer's Stone in our First Year." Harry answered, before turning back to Severus.
"What are we going to be training in, precicely?" Draco asked before letting Harry ask a question.
"You will be learning different forms of Martial Arts, and different kinds of street fighting and weapons fighting, to help give you an edge in future battles." Severus replied, then turned to look at the boys. "However, I will not say anymore until your other teachers get here as well. Everything will be explained better at a later time." With that, he turned and left the room, pausing slightly to ask if they were coming.
Following silently, the boys never noticed that they were being followed until...
"ARGHHH"
Two startled screams filled the almost empty castle.
"One thing," a familiar voice (at least to one of the boys) said, "is that you need to know what is going on around you."
