Harry tried to ignore the pain in his forehead and got to his feet. What was Voldemort doing on the train? Harry held his arms out and pushed Ron, Hermione and Cho behind him slightly. Voldemort stood tall in the train. He was on his own and looking at Harry dangerously. The students cowered in their compartments and a few watched anxiously out of the windows of the compartment to see what was happening.

"What are you doing here?" Harry asked clutching his wand tightly.

"You got rid of my advanced guard quite effectively." Voldemort said. "You won't be so lucky with me." He got his wand out. "What was in that Prophecy Potter?" Voldemort asked. Harry smirked.

"Is that what this is about?" Harry asked.

"What are you doing?" Hermione hissed to him when she saw him smile.

"Because if it's about the prophecy then-" Voldemort shot a curse at Harry.

"PROTEGO" Harry shouted. The curse bounced back and Voldemort moved out of the way.

"Impressive. Your powers seem to have increased." Voldemort said, "Well no problems." Voldemort's snake like red eyes stared into Harry's sparkling emerald green eyes. Harry's head felt like it was splitting in two. "Lets see what's in here?" Harry felt Voldemort sorting through his memories. He could hear him telling the train what he was seeing. Harry willed himself to push Voldemort out. No, no, NO!

"NO!" Harry shouted. Voldemort took a step forwards and Harry took one back, pushing his friends further behind him

"Tell me Potter!" Voldemort said,

"Voldemort, get away from here now." April demanded as she walked up to Voldemort. Several people stared in amazement.

"Ah, miss Marsden, how is your dear Lily-Jennifer?" Voldemort asked with a sneer. April got her wand out.

"Get out now. This is a school train and these children are just trying to get to school"

"And you think that will stop me?" Voldemort asked. "It takes more then a sympathy vote and a good heart to get me away from what I want."

"And what do you want?" April asked. Voldemort sneered. Harry saw April shudder.

"Do you really need to ask that question?" Voldemort asked. "I want that Prophecy now give it to me Potter!" Voldemort ordered. A light shot out of the end of Voldemort's wand and knocked April over. April quickly got to her feet and sent a quick stream of curses at Voldemort. He received each one and staggered backwards and crashed through a door that led to the next carriage. There was some screaming and all the students went running. April went after Voldemort. Harry looked at Ron, Hermione and Cho and quickly followed.

"April." Harry said.

"Stay back Harry."

"What if he kills you?" Harry asked her urgently.

"He wont." April said confidently. She stepped onto the next carriage and held up her wand. "Lumos Solarum" The entire room lit up like it was in the middle of the day. April looked around and frowned.

"He's gone." Harry said.

"Yeah, I know." April said.

"April!" Kingsley said running to them. "Dementors are surrounding the train and they've got bands of death eaters around them. The driver is dead." Kingsley said slightly out of breath. April looked slightly alarmed.

"Makes sure all the students cant see out of the window, keep them in their compartments. Harry go with Kingsley." April said, "I'm going to the engine" Harry watched April with the awe he felt when he first saw her. He knew now that he had two role models, April and Dumbledore. Dumbledore was there for advice and April was everything Harry wanted to be.

"I want to go with you." Harry said.

"Harry this is no time for heroics now go and do as you're told and let me and Kingsley get on with what we're supposed to be doing. Protecting you and every student on this train." April turned and ran down towards the engine.

"Come on Harry." Kingsley said but Harry turned and followed April. "Harry!" Harry burst into the Prefect's carriage and surprised Hannah Abbott and Ernie Macmillan and then ran into the Head's compartments. He rushed through there, against the head boy's protest and found himself at the engine. April was pointing her wand at the various controls and muttering to herself. Harry turned and looked through a window. Kingsley was right. Dementors were surrounding the train, they weren't close enough to feel the effects but they were slowly approaching them.

"Oh shit!" Harry said. April spun with her wand ready.

"Harry!" April snapped at him.

"Hurry up and get the train moving." Harry said. He looked at the floor and saw the driver and his mechanic dead on the floor. April turned and pointed her wand at the controls for the train.

"Loco autoum" She said. The train started up. She pointed her wand at a pile of coal that was just on the floor and used her wand to put them into the small furnace then she lit a fire inside the furnace. The train shuddered and then slowly began to move.

"It's moving!" shouted a death eater.

"Stop it!" April looked over the small window and opened it. The freezing winter air stung both her face and Harry's face.

"If you're here you can be of some use. Use your Patronus, I'm not very good at them" Harry nodded. He got out his wand.

"Expecto Patronum" he said. The large stag shot out of his wand. "Protect the train." Harry said. The stag began to circle the train at lightning speed.

"Stupefy." April shouted as she popped her head over the window and shot a deatheater. She ducked in time to avoid a jet of green light. "Harry, keep heating up the furnace or we wont get enough speed. The train can only do so much on it's own" Harry nodded urgently and just noticed his Patronus go past again. He pointed his wand at the furnace.

"Incendio" He said. A constant stream of fire leapt out of his wand and the train picked up speed. Harry heard someone scream as the train ran over someone and then sped off into the dark. April quickly shut the window and stared at Harry, who was trying not to look at her. He stared intently into the fire.

"Why did you disobey my orders?" April said. "I'm your godmother and your protector." Harry stayed silent, he didn't want to admit it but he just wanted to see what was happening "Your parents would have been really disappointed in you if they saw you doing that. Your mother gave up her life to protect you and you just run about nearly getting yourself killed."

"Actually it's Voldemort who comes to me. I didn't mean to cause the train to stop." Harry said back angrily.

"You didn't have to go running around and play Hero." April said. "You don't have any respect for those who are trying their hardest to protect you. What would you do if something stupid like that killed one of your friends?"

"It already has!" Harry said. "I didn't mean for it to happen. I can't help it if I feel the need to help! Half the time I don't even ask for the trouble that finds me. I want to do something to help and the only thing I can do is kill Voldemort because I'm the only person but how am I supposed to do that when no one will let me!" Harry said angrily back to April.

"Because you're not ready. What do you think we're trying to do by teaching you Occlumency, letting you carry on the DA. Getting Grout in as the Defence teacher?" April asked. "We are trying our hardest but you're not making it much easier by running off and nearly getting yourself killed." Harry stared at April. At that moment he felt like hating her. She didn't have any right to say anything like that to him. Only his parents could order him around but they weren't around anymore.

"Keep an eye on that fire." April said after a while, letting both of them to cool their heads a bit. "I'll keep watch." Harry happily agreed and stared into the furnace.


Harry could see that everyone was slightly shaken as all the students walked off the train onto the snow covered station at Hogsmeade. Jenny found Harry quickly and put her arms around his neck tightly.

"Oh, you're ok." Jenny said relieved.

"Yeah." Harry muttered. He was still angry with April and he was trying hard not to take out his anger on his friends.

"Are you ok?" Hermione asked Harry worriedly.

"Yeah I'm fine. Lets get to the castle." Harry said as he led the group to a carriage pulled by a ghostly thestral. All the way the group were silent. Jenny held Harry's hand tightly and stroked the back of it while she stared out of the window. Harry just stared ahead at a patch of wall between Ron and Hermione's heads.

"I'm so glad we're back at Hogwarts." Ginny said, breaking the silence. "That was so scary. A deatheater came in on me and Dean and if it wasn't for Dean then I think we'd both be dead." Ginny said becoming emotional. Hermione wrapped an arm around Ginny and hugged her like a sister.

"Yeah well, we got attacked by Voldemort, you can't beat that." Ron muttered, his face slightly red from what Ginny had just told them. Harry grunted and continued to contemplate everything as he stared out of the window. Jenny shifted uncomfortably, she didn't like Harry being this quiet.

"Harry." Jenny whispered. Harry didn't respond, "Harry what happened? Was it mum?"

"It was nothing," Harry said. He turned to Jenny and saw her looking so concerned. It made Harry's heart break slightly. "It was your mum. She just said some stuff." Harry turned to look out at the approaching castle. Hermione gave a small cough

"Well, when we get to the castle we have to go straight to our common rooms." Hermione said quietly. "April-"

"Don't talk to me about that woman. She's as evil as everyone else." Harry snapped. He didn't know why April's words got to him so much. They always did, whether they were good or bad Harry seemed to spend hours dwelling on them. She made him feel about things only a mother could make anyone feel about things. It made sense though, she had been Harry's mum's best friend and she was his godmother. Harry hit the wall with his fist and got out of the carriage as it came to a stop.

"Harry!" Jenny said uncertainly. Harry ignored his friends and went straight to his dorm.


A/N:-Ok, i'm sorry but i won't be able to update until friday because i'm going on a biology field trip for the week and i really don't want to go on it. Don't make me gooo!! I hope you liked that chapter, there's only a few more chapters until you can find out what Hermione's up to. and this is where Jenny and Harry's honeymoon period is starting to come to an end, i won't give away too much yet but their relationship isn't one of those perfect relationships that are in so many fanfics. I'm loving it right now cause we're starting to get to the interesting bit of the story, the cooler bits where things start to become very interesting...in my opinion.

bloomz-baby: hehe, i know, don't you love suspense. My friend and I did make up the next day, though it was kinda a wierd event though.

Kordolin: didn't you love the cliffie?

Draddog: yeah, i can't really remember what happened with April there but hopefully she's beggining to rise to your expectations.

Cap'n phoenix: the DA will get even more action, mainly at the end of the story but I'm really pleased with how they're beggining to grow into a sort of team. I don't really control exactly how my stories turn out, my fingers do.

marauderluva-17: thanks :D

And now......the Reviewer of the week's reply...

Mel: Bloody hell, your review is long enough isn't it? took me five minutes to read, lol. Can i take a guess and say you're trying to compete with Whippy bird on Jessie Flower's story? Because she sends really long reviews! England does have a lot of sex, we have the highest teenage pregnancy rate in europe. I mean, kids get pregnant at 11 and stuff and I try and relate what all these characters do to what me and my frends were doing when we were that age (though technically, we're about the same age as harry in this story). I try and add as much action as i can but i find it really really difficult to write action, i always feel like i'm rushing the chapter and that it isn't as good as it could be. I always forget what spells these guys can use and which ones they can't and stuff. I'm always tempted to get them to use rictusempra because in the computer game that's one they use in duels (HP and the Prisoner of azkaban game ROX!! HErmione rulz!!) haha, i love Jenny as well. She's wicked. If you think her combination of blood is cool, i'll give you a major spoiler for a future story. I'm thinking of bringing a kid (in my next generation stories) with the following bloodlines in him/her..Potter, Evans, Black, Marsden, WEasley and Granger....now that kid will be something! guess who it's grandparents will be...lol. Yeah, HArry loves Jenny but i haven't got quite there yet. I also like how Harry is kinda slowly turning into James. It's quite cool and I soo feel like telling you more about what heppens int he rest of the story but i don't want to spoil it for you, i've already sent you a bit of a spoiler thru ur email. April and Sirius did get thru to HArry but Harry would never have done anything wrong anyway because he really likes Jenny, can you beleive that this story started out with me intending it to be a harry/hermione fic?? I like your idea for HArry's alternate name but i'm afraid that it would cause a bit too much confusion in the story if we all began calling HArry JAmes. YEah i can see your point about the scar, Harry would just be another boy in the street and so no one would notice him without the scar but dan radcliffe....sorry, i really don't care if he's 2 years younger then me but he's fit! and he doesn't need a scar hehe. Ron and Hermione? well, there's a pairing, you'll just have to wait and see what happens between them, their relationship is gonna get interesting. A double wedding? now that's just soo strange, i don't think that they'll be having a double wedding, that's just too wierd to think about! But yeah, Hermione is getting over Harry and is beginning to realise her true feelings. They're fun to write and again, the wedding! please, the double wedding is just too wierd to think about. I can email you with some details later if you want me to but a double wedding shudders at idea That is just too wierd. I did like your review, I hope you liked the chapter and my really long review thank. I went through your review with a fine toothed comb and tried to tell you as much as i can without giving too much away. Now review again so that i can be all cheered up wen i get back from my biology trip :D
