Harry looked around; the area he was in was lined with trees, with thick branches that blocked out all of the light that could have come from the full moon which hung in the dark sky above.

He shivered as a strong breeze swept through the clearing. He wrapped his arms around his body and glanced around again. The clearing was empty except for an assortment of foot prints that were scattered over the ground. Harry looked closely at them. They were in a circular pattern. And in the centre were one set in prints that were different from all the others. They were smaller, and not shoed.

Harry shivered again and he wrapped his arms around his body tighter. He looked down at the touch of the material. He was wearing a long black cloak. One that wasn't his own. Neither were the thick black boats that were on his feet.

"Odd." He muttered to himself.

"Not really." Forcing himself not to jump at the sound of the replying voice he turned around slowly.

"Lucius," Harry hissed, recognising the figure that was emerging from the shadows towards.

"Hello Harry." Lucius' voice was calm. "It's been a long time."

"Not long enough!" Harry growled back.

"Tut tut, that's not very nice Harry." Lucius stopped walking and stood directly in front of Harry. "You feel it don't you? The pain, the ache, the feeling that you are missing apart of yourself." His voice turned quiet but in the still night Harry could still hear it clearly.

"What are you on about Lucius?" He asked, curious to know how Lucius knew what he was feeling.

"We all feel it. When you destroyed the Dark Lord," he stopped, took a deep breath and then continued, "We were all connected to him. We still are. Even you. Now he is gone the link between us is slowly pulling us back to him."

Lucius locked eyes with Harry.

"I give you a choice Harry. Either we do nothing and forget that this little conversation ever happened and then everyone who was ever linked to the Dark Lord, which includes Virginia Weasley, will be pulled into hell where the Dark Lord now resides. Or you can be apart of my plan, I cannot continue the plan without you Harry. You are needed for it to work."

"What's your plan Lucius?" Harry asked, gritting his teeth.

"All those that have ever been connected to the Dark Lord must unite and we must bring him back to this plain. Other wise we all shall die."

"What if we deserve to!" He snarled in reply.

"Even little Virginia? Word has it that she is happily married and has a child now. Do you want her to be taken away from all that? Do you want her to be taken away from her friends. Your friends. How do you think they will feel if not only do you die but Virginia as well?"

Harry looked away from Lucius.

"So my choice is: either work with you and the other Death Eaters to bring back Voldemort or do nothing and let everyone who has ever been linked to him die too."

"What do you choose Harry?"

"Its an easy choice." Harry looked up at Lucius and smirked, "I'm sure you can guess my answer."

Lucius smiled, "Always the Gryffindor."

Harry laughed lightly to himself, "No. I am a Slytherin."

Lucius' smile dropped.

AN: hahaha I had to leave it there!

Sorry for not updating in so long but I had a mid teen crisis to deal with which still hasn't been completely resolved yet.
