I own nothing except the plot. The song is Linkin Park's, and the characters are J.K. Rowlings.

"Harry, I'm glad you've finally came to your senses and joined me." Voldemort told his new Death Eater.

I'm tired of being what you want me to be

Harry bowed and moved back to the edge of the circle. He was no longer Dumbledore's favorite student. He was now his own self. He was even willing to take the chance of being a Death Eater if he could be whoever he wanted. Despite being a Death Eater, Hermione still stayed by his side. She had even become a Death Eater herself. Sometimes Harry wondered if she was just doing to spy on him, but they had become a couple, and Harry trusted her.

Feeling so faithless
Lost under the surface

And if Dumbledore tried to change him now, he'd be dead in a millisecond. Well, maybe closer to a few milliseconds. Harry had been getting personal lessons from Voldemort, and become his favorite Death Eater.

I don't know what you're expecting of me
Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes

"I'm glad you've all been able to show. I must personally thank Snape for getting Potter to come onto my side. As I've said before, there is no good or evil, there is only power." Voldemort quoted himself, and looked around the circle at his army. In the past year, it had grown quite a bit. And it's all thanks to Harry Potter. Getting so many of his D.A. group to come with him. Neville Longbottom, the mudblood, Hermione Granger, Terry Boot, Draco Malfoy, (his father had been in before him and he decided to become one as well), Cho Chang, Hannah Abbott, and Ernie Macmillan. A few others joined as well, but Voldemort wasn't surprised.

Harry's POV

Ever since I joined the Death Eaters, I've been much happier. But the thought of my old life, where I couldn't stand myself, and always wanted to be someone else made me feel small. No matter what I was doing, even with Hermione, I shrunk.

Every step that I take is another mistake to you

I've become so numb
I can't feel you there
Become so tired
So much more aware

I felt myself dozing off, and instantly jolted my head back up. Voldemort's cold, cat-like eyes stared at me. He continued his speech, and I looked around to see that most of the others had left. Hermione put a hand on my shoulder, and whispered in my ear, "He told us to go find Ron. Come on, we're the only ones who knows where he lives." Hermione said, pulling me out of the woods.

I'm becoming this
All I want to do
Is be more like me
And be less like you


"You know, Hermione. Sometimes I wish I hadn't joined forces with Voldemort," I told her, as soon as we were ready to apparate to Ron's house.

Can't you see that you're smothering me?
Holding too tightly
Afraid to loose control


I opened the door, and started to climb the stairs to Ron's room. I went in, and was greeted by looks from the 6 Weasley children.

"What do you want, Potter?" Ron spat at him, taking out his wand. George stared at him with a look of hate, Bill and Charlie took out their wands, Ginny slunk away into the corner, and started whimpering. But Fred walked right up to me, and stood next to me.
The others stared in silence.

Cause everything that you thought I would be
Is falling apart right in front of you


"What? Come on, you guys. You know it would come down to this. I'm sick of Dumbledore's shit about being able to fight off Voldemort if enough people stick to the good side. Harry has already went, so why not us too?" He told them, his mouth starting to curl up at the corners.

Ron's POV

I just couldn't take my eyes off him. My own brother. Against the whole good side. Against my family. Against me. But he was right. I hate to admit it, he was right. Sighing, I put my wand back in my robes (which I had decided to wear all through the summer), and walked over to them. If you can't beat 'em: join 'em.

{Caught in the undertow
Just caught in the undertow}

Ginny, George, and Bill stared at Fred and I like we were crazy. Charlie had no expression on his face. He walked over to us, saying that he couldn't do anything about it anyway.

"Thank you, Potter, for showing me where these nitwits live. I see that you've even collected a couple for us," Voldemort said, as other Death Eaters appeared around the us. I stared at him in a scared way, but if I was going to have to obey his every order, I might as well start saying his name, and if at the least, start thinking it.

Normal

Every step that I take
Is another mistake to you

They all stared at Ron, Charlie and Fred. Harry took them out of the room, and moved them down to Mr. And Mrs. Weasley's room. Snoring could be heard through the door. Hermione opened it, and did the body bind on them. Ron and Harry walked around to get their wands, and Bill and Fred levitated them to get them upstairs easier. Neither of them woke up

{Caught in the undertow

And every second I waste
is more then I can take

Voldemort smiled as he came down the stairs. George was the only one who was in the same form as Mr. And Mrs. Weasley. Bill and Ginny were walking behind Voldemort, and you could see from Ginny's face the dark mark was just burned into their skin.

I've become so numb
I can't feel you there
Become so tired
So much more aware

I'm becoming this
All I want to do
Is be more like me
And be less like you

Hermione looked at Ginny with slight praise. Ginny shrugged, and walked over to Harry, hugging on his arm. Hermione rolled her eyes. She thought that it was time to tell Harry the truth.

"Harry," Hermione said, pulling Ginny away from him. "I'm not in love with you. I'm in love with Voldemort."

"You are?" Harry whispered back, raising his eyebrows and smiling at Voldemort. "I'm glad. I'm attracted to Ginny." Hermione sighed.

And I know
I may end up failing too

But I know
You were just like me
With someone disappointed in you


Ginny went back to Harry's arm, and Hermione smiled. "Go tell him," Harry pushed her, and she stumbled to Voldemort.

"Yes, Granger?" he said strangely nice.

"Um, I like you. A lot." She told him, and blushed. Voldemort smiled.

"I like you, too, Hermione."

I've become so numb
I can't feel you there
Become so tired
So much more aware

I'm becoming this
All I want to do
Is be more like me
And be less like you


Hermione gasped. "You called me Hermione." Harry smiled, hugging Ginny. She looked up at him, and kissed his cheek. Voldemort looked at the others, and continued down the stairs, holding Hermione close.

I've become so numb
I can't feel you there
Become so tired
So much more aware

Harry's POV


I waited until Voldemort walked past me, and followed him. I looked at the familiar walls, and I went cold. Ginny must've known I was feeling different, because she gave me a hug, and put her head on my shoulder.

I've become so numb
I can't feel you there
Tired of being what you want me to be


As we walked out the door, I explained my plan to Ginny, and she nodded, understanding.

I've become so numb
I can't feel you there
Tired of being what you want me to be


I started running away from the group, Ginny closely following. Ron, Fred, Bill, and Charlie all got the impression, and followed after us. Hermione looked after us with a scowl, and kissed Voldemort. Voldemort knew I was never going to come back, never going to be him again. He held back the Death Eaters and said, "Let him go. I knew this day would come, and I respect it. I'm glad that Harry finally found something he wanted to do. Good luck, Potter. We will meet again."

So what do you think? If it seems like I rushed into it, its because I wanted to. Thanks for reading it, and please review. You now should be able to review in anonymous, because I fixed it. If you liked this, read some of my other stuff.
