Fallen Angel
By: ninariddletales

Harry stood alone in the hallways studying the detail he'd missed his childhood years. The place that had at one time made him so happy now felt like prison. The walls were cold and dark, uninviting to the once Azkaban prisoner. He knew he was late but didn't seem to care. He would act like nothing had happened, even though his soul was being torn apart inside, he would make them pay, for everything. As he neared the room he heard the laughs, shouts, and loud talks of the students, the carefree students who knew nothing of emptiness and pain. He entered, the loud noises stopped and slowly twisted into whispering.

"I don't think he's innocent." a Ravenclaw girl bravely declared to her friends.

"Quiet!" Someone at her table snapped the girl had 'straggly, waist length, dirty blond hair, very pale eyebrows, and protuberant eyes that gave her a permantly surprised look ' her voice suddenly turned into a soft whisper, "I think he's innocent..."

Harry was quiet surprised as he sat, he meant to hate everybody but maybe some people believe him? Shock also took over him as Neville moved from sitting next to Harry's ex best friend to Harry.

"Hi." he whispered meekly. Neville looked much different, he appeared stronger less scared even if his voice gave away his inner feelings.

Harry simply nodded. Neville didn't seem to mind, as people started talking again, he talked very loudly (which was strange)to the boy-who-lived so he wouldn't have to hear the nasty comments that filled the room. Neville talked about how their fifth year was a drag, and that Harry's didn't miss to much except his test. He also talked about the Ravenclaw girl who told them Harry was innocent was Neville's girlfriend, Luna Lovegood, and she was the same year as Ginny. As Neville was talking Harry searched the room to see who was glaring at him.

"HARRY!" Ginny left her brother and started towards Neville and Ron, who sat at the end of the table, alone.

"GINNY MOLLY WEASLY!!" Ron shouted, his face matching his hair color.

"Oh, Shove it!" Ginny yelled making her way over to best friend, Neville. "You know Harry's innocent, you're just to much of a git to realize it!"

"Ginny...That bastard is twisting my sister." said Ron to anyone who would listen.

"Harry!" Ginny hugged him tightly.

"G-Ginny, I survived Azkaban just for you to staingle me to death."

"Sorry." she murmered, sitting next to Neville, "So letting him in on the exciting things that has happened to us." she spat sarcasticly. "Oh, I forgot to metion, Neville, Luna, Draco, Blasie and I, are the most hated people at Hogwarts!"

"So if you don't want to hang out with us-"

"Of course I would."

Neville and Ginny smiled, Harry had changed they could see it, he was empty but still maybe just maybe he was still holding on to life, and now that he knew he had friends maybe everything would turn out alright.

"Oliver Wood is our new Potions Teacher, and Sirius Black is our new defense against the dark arts teacher!"

"Neville!!"

Neville frowned realizing what he'd said, "Sorry."

Harry didn't respond. Sirius. His godfather, the man who should have trusted him and loved him like a father. Harry glanced at Sirius who was also staring at him. Instead of turning away, Harry glared at his once friend, Maybe I should have killed him when I had the chance.

"Harry?" Neville sounded scared and concerned. Had Harry said that out loud? He didn't have time to think to much as he heard Dean say, "I heard he's friends with Draco."

Neville tried his best to get Harry's attention but it wasn't working.

"Draco is as evil as Voldemort hims-" Before Dean could attempt to finish, Harry had came behind him, turned him around roughly and held his new wand against his neck.

His first wand had been broken in front of him, he didn't know how but somehow Ollivander had made one, all most the exact same as his first one. He was the first student ever to be reaccepted to Hogwarts after his wand was broken.

"You bastard, you can say anything you want about me I don't give a damn but when you start talking about my friends." he threated, "You'll find yourself hexed. Don't talk about people you know nothing about."

"Nothing?" Seamus exclaimed, " He's a ex-Deatheater and if your friends with him than you must be the emeny too."

As Seamus finished he was punched in the face and sent flying onto the Gryffindor table. Harry blinked in confusion as he saw Draco shook his hand.

The teachers looked just as stunned, no one moved to give out pusishsments. Sirius stood up but just watched.

"Now you listen here you stupid git!" Draco yelled as he stepped on the chair to lean over and grab Seamus by the collar of his robes, "Things in my life have been more of a hell whole than you could ever image. Harry didn't become my friend through darkness or pity, and he's a better friend to me than any of you to him."

Draco's voice was ice-cold as he glared at various people at the table mainly Ron.

"He's seen everyone he's ever loved killed..."

"Would that include Voldemort?" Ron spat. Harry looked beyound hurt, Ron couldn't even look at him even though he didn't regret saying it.

"He would never betray a friend like you did, like your still doing!"

"Draco-" Harry started grasping Draco's arm keeping him from hurting anyone father.

"Mr. Potter, Mr. Malfoy!" Snape was the first teacher to react, "Come with me. Finnigan, see Madame Pomfrey."

The two silently obeyed following the new headmaster to Dumbledore's former office. Dumbledore...Harry hated and loved him, he'd been there many a time for Harry than he betrayed him not believing him innocent, but Harry reminded himself he did come again to save him, and that's why he's dead. Many things had changed, since Snape had been a spy for so long the Ministry of Magic, and Fudge thought Severus would be perfect to be headmaster sine Dumbeldore had died so suddenly. Worse, Harry had been found covered in Voldemort and Dumbledore's blood after that he was sure that he'd spent the rest of his life in Azkaban. He'd already been there for a year and the thought of even going back for a day scared Harry. The strangest thing was Snape had stood up for him what he said Harry would knew know, but it kept him from the Dementor's kiss and got him back into Hogwarts. He had refused but Snape stepped in again.

"That smell." Harry muttered as he entered the office.

"I'm sorry you find me as repulsive as I find you-"

"No, " Harry interrupted, "I-It smell like Dumbledore, the sweet candy odor mixed with spices."

Snape and Draco both felt confused because they smelt nothing of the kind.

"His blood..." Harry mumbled, "Smelled like this room..."

"Anyways," Snape continued, " Har-Potter, would you like me to re-sort you. The hat has reminded me that you'd do well in Slytheirn."

Harry hadn't expected this at all! He thought Snape would be, You're so ungrateful, Potter. After all I've done for you. Dumbledore would be disappoint.

"That's alright...I'll stay..."

Snape gave a worried look, "Are you sure?"

"Yeah."

Later that night, Harry deeply regreted his words as the Gryffindors made him a punching bag, he didn't fight back. He didn't feel the need to, if this made them feel better than have fun. He never would forget the hate on their faces when he had been found with Cedric's body. He remembered all the hateful words spat at his trail when he wasn't even given a chance to speak. He didn't protect himself from they're kicks he only made sure they didn't see. The cuts on his arms. He didn't want them to know he was the empty inside. He wanted then to pay. To bleed like he did. To starve like he was forced to. To be left with nothing. All he heard was Ron cursing him for all he'd lost, what Ron didn't understand was Harry lost them to.

"This is for Mione." Ron yelled kicking Harry knocking his in darkness.

Hermione.

Hedwig.

Cho.

Petunia.

Dudley.

Vernon.

Hagrid.

Lily.

James.

Voldemort.

Dumbledore.

Cedric.

As Harry's eye opened in spotted the daylight and Ron sitting on his bed crying.

"Percy."

Harry already knew why Ron was crying because he had killed him. He remember his lifeless body, taking his wand from his dead hands. He remember Ginny sobbing her own brother was going to join Voldemort and kill her as a sacrifce to his new lord. If Harry hadn't been there she'd be dead. Harry's face was blank as he stared at Ginny. He knew she wouldn't tell, but it would only be a matter of time before the truth was learned.

"Let her go Tom." Harry whispered.

Voldemort grabed Harry roughly forcing him to look into his eyes.

"Why?"

Harry flinched as he remember his words, "Because now I have killed for you, and will join you. This girl will be the witness to the world. Please, I'll...serve you. If you let her go." He regreted his words and he didn't mean it. But he could never let Mrs.Weasly lose both Percy and Ginny it would have been cruel.

"Harry, you don't have to do this!!" Ginny screamed as the Deatheaters pulled her away.

"Yes, I do." he kneeled at Voldemort's feet and the dark lord smiled at Ginny as if to say I've won.

"You will never WIN!!!" Ginny spay as she was dragged away. "Harry, stay! Don't let Darkness turn you. Please!"

"DAMN YOU, MALFOY!" Ron screamed in angoy, returning Harry to the present. I'd reminding him of what was in his pocket. Percy's wand.
