Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince

By: Krystal Lily Potter

Chapter Seven: Going Back

Rating: PG-13 (More on the AA side)

Couples: HP/HG, DT/GW, DT/LB, PP/SF, LL/NL, LB/RW, LL/RW…and more!

Summary: As Harry and his friends enter their sixth year at Hogwarts they don't enter the cheerful world they left behind. They enter a world covered in a thick blanket of fear. It only hits Harry now how important he really is when people start seeing him as the light that allows them to see under this blanket. Along with his friends he must battle the horrors of the past, present, and possibly the future to begin the end of the war, hopefully before it hits Hogwarts. What happens when some of his friends, including one of the 'trio' disappear while under the protection of Dumbledore himself? It's up to the last two, plus some more friends, to find a way to fight this war, on their own...

Warning: There are dark themes in this and many mentions of things that if described too much could make this rated R. There's swearing, mentions of suicide, murder and gore/bloody scenes, mentions of rape and other dark things like that. But most of it aside from the battle (murder/gore) scenes will not be graphic...just mentioned.

Author's Note

OMG! I'm so sorry for the long wait between updates but I honest to god have a good excuse this time! I swear…

You see I had it almost done…like I only needed two more pages left to finish the chapter, then I go to bed and the next morning my step dad's yelling at the computer because it's not working right.

I, Me, not him, Moi, found out that this virus on the computer had some way (how in gods name I have no clue) but it had deleted Microsoft XP from out computer! Meaning EVERYTHING else went with it…including all my stories!

Sucks eh? I was writing original stories too and one was like 50 pages long! L Now I don't have that anymore either! And my mom says I'm not allowed to be mad at my dad because he didn't get the virus off soon enough!

So here I am trying to rewrite it…probably won't be as good though. You know what else sucks? I mentioned how I had the whole plot line done for the story? Well that's gone too. Excuse me for not having any flopping disks.

Anyways I hope the big gap between updates is ok…I was just too mad to write for a couple of days…neways

ONWARD!


Harry stood staring down a dark corridor with a blank look.

"Oh no, not the Department of Mysteries again," he muttered and leaned against the wall. He felt something warm and wet on it and backed away. He let out a gasp and said, "Blood." "That's right Potter," an icy voice said. "The walls are made from the blood of the sacrificed, held together by their bones and flesh."

Harry got a disgusted look on his face and turned around to face where the noise came from, but what he saw he wasn't expecting at all.

He was staring at himself!

Harry2 was leaning against the wall, not minding the blood. He stood up straight and walked towards Harry. "This isn't my real form, I just enjoy taking this one. There's so much power in it." His blue eyes flashed greedily. "Power I want."

"Who the hell are you?" Harry growled.

Harry2 raised an eyebrow and said, "You can't guess? Really? Well maybe you should find out the hard way." A knife appeared in his hand and he lunged towards Harry.

Harry gasped and moved out of the way, but his left hand got nicked a little.

"Lucky move," Harry2 said and was about to lunge again when a figure of a female appeared. She had long strawberry blond hair and from what Harry could see she had dark brown eyes.

"Go away, nobody wants you here," she growled at him darkly.

Harry2 grumbled and seemed to shift into his true form before vanishing. It happened too fast for Harry to see what he really looked like.

"Are you ok?" the girl asked and faced him. Harry looked a little surprised to see she was transparent. "Yes I'm a ghost. But a mortal can see color in their guardian. Yeah I know I probably look too young to be a guardian spirit eh? Well…looks can be deceiving. Anyways, be careful, that bastard will be back, and he has a vengeance and a thirst for blood. He had already left his mark and he will be back for it. Now wake up!"


Harry's eyes snapped open with surprised and he jumped with surprise when he saw someone hovering over him. "MARK!"

The young brown haired boy smiled and said, "Hey Harry! About time you woke up! Hermione told me to get you up but you were having a dream or something."

"Oh. When did you get home? What happened in Diagon Alley? Are you ok?" Harry asked.

"Yeah. Tonks made sure Nikky and I hid in a small alley. It's a good thing both of us are oddly small for our age. Anyways we were safe and saw the whole battle. It was a little scary but our side won," Mark said. "And I got home at like 5:00 this morning."

The older boy nodded then said, "Where's Hermione?"

"She went downstairs to see Nikky."

"Oh, ok." Harry stretched out and yawned slightly.

"Here, this is yours apparently Professor…er…Snape found it on the floor yesterday and wasn't very happy when he realized whose it was," Mark said with a smirk that was very similar to Harry's when he was criticizing Snape as he held out Harry's prefect badge.

Harry chuckled lightly and took it from his cousin then said, "If I lose this Hermione will kill me."

"No doubt," Mark agreed.

"Well I'm gonna take a shower. I must stink," Harry muttered. "Yeah, you do," Mark agreed. "Shut up." Mark laughed as he watched Harry pick out a new set of cloths and then walk into the bathroom that was attached to his room.


"Hiya Harry," Nicola said as he walked into the kitchen.

"Hey Nikky," he replied and sat down next to Hermione. He noted lightly that nobody else seemed to be home. "Tonks had to go to the Ministry for something. Remember last year how she was injured? Well apparently it was bad enough that she got to take a month and a half off of work but something happened in the Ministry and being and Auror she needed to go. Remus had to go to Hogwarts to talk to Professor Dumbledore about something," Hermione explained.

"Alright, then where'd all this food come from?"

"Not a clue."

"Harry Potter sir!" a squeaky voice said, scaring the daylights out of the four in the kitchen.

"Dobby?" Harry asked as a house elf pretty much tackled him around the waist in a hug, which was a little uncomfortable considering he was already sitting down.

The elf's green, tennis ball sized eyes look up at him and he said, "Yes sir. Professor Dumbledore is sending Dobby to work for Harry Potter and his friends until school starts again. Dobby is honoured to help Harry Potter and his friends."

Hermione didn't seem to have any objections with Dobby working for them at all; in fact she seemed delighted that a free house elf was here instead of an enslaved one.

"Thank you Dobby," Harry said with a smile.

"It is Dobby's job to look after Harry Potter, Misses Grangers and Harry Potter's cousin," Dobby said then ran off to clean up something.

"Wow," Nicola said. "Dobby seems much nicer then that Kreacher one was…"

"No kidden," Mark agreed.


The rest of the summer pretty much flew by for Harry, Hermione, Mark and Nicola. Harry and Hermione were being trained even harder then before, and the work was getting tougher, especially their classes with Mad-Eye. In their spare time they had taken to telling stories about Hogwarts to Mark and Nicola. The two were interested and were excited when the older two showed them the basics to transfiguration ("You'll both get house points for knowing it," Hermione said excitedly. "What could be more important?" "Not writing anything Snape says down in his first class and answering his questions right," Harry replied dryly.)

Once and awhile Harry was invited into the Order meetings. Not all the time though, but he respected that as long as he was getting some information.

Things went ok between him and Professor Dumbledore because they avoided contact most of the time, but one meeting a week before school started changed everything.

"We believe we know where the Weasleys are," Dumbledore stated. "But it will take about a month to get there, a well researched rescue mission and then at least a month to get back. That obviously interacts with the school year so only certain people can go. None of my teachers or the guards for Hogwarts will be able to leave."

There was a mutter through the large group which was now the Order and someone asked, "Do you have any idea who will be able to go?"

"Yes I do have a list of Aurors and other Order members to go. I'll be informing the people separately. Now all of the Advanced Guard is going to Hogwarts. Why? Because Harry here is familiar with them so he'll know that they're there to help the students in case of an emergency," Dumbledore said.

Harry sighed under his breath and rolled his eyes.

"Now we also need a new spy since our last one had to give away who he was because of a certain…situation," Dumbledore said and his eyes flicked to Harry. "Now we do have a few candidates but it'll take awhile for them to get as close to Voldemort as Severus was."

Harry didn't really listen to the rest of the meeting until he heard his name mentioned. He glanced at Snape, who had said it, and he seemed enraged about something. Harry also noted that Professor McGonagall seemed really smug about something.

"Well Harry?" Professor Flitwick asked.

"Umm…well what?" Harry asked.

Snape gave a sadistic laugh then said, "See Albus, he isn't responsible enough for one! He wasn't even paying attention."

"Really Severus," McGonagall scowled. "You can't expect a teenager to pay attention to a meeting as boring as this one has been. I almost dozed off a couple times myself! You just don't want him to have it so you have an excuse to drop him from your potions class!"

Harry smirked at his potions professor, who glared back. He was very thankful to McGonagall lately because she had actually been playing favourites. It might change when they were in school again but he didn't care.

The two teachers had a glaring match until Dumbledore interrupted with a chuckle, his blue eye twinkling, "I do believe that Mr. Potter should be informed about what he will need this year for school. I believe you know what this is correct Harry?" he held out a gold chair with a tiny hour class on the bottom of it.

"Yeah, it's a time turner," Harry said.

"And the laws?"

"You can't be seen."

"Well that's half true, you can't be seen by yourself or anyone you've recently your other self has come into contact with," Dumbledore explained. "Now Harry you understand the seriousness of all of this. I don't want you using this Time Turner for…other things. We cannot change the past."

"I know that," Harry snapped.

"I know you do Harry but-"

"No I didn't forget anything! How could I? Or did you forget it was SIRIUS Hermione and I saved when we used the Time Turner in third year?!" His cheeks were slightly flushed and he felt rage twist in his stomach for no reason at all. Dumbledore could, somehow, feel that Harry wasn't in a good mood right now so he passed him the Time Turner. "You'll need it for everything you're doing this year. Some people think that you cannot…handle the responsibility of having a Time Turner. I believe that you can."

Harry said nothing as he put the object around his neck and slide it under his shirt. Dumbledore was the only other one to hear a small 'clink' as it came in contact with Harry's pendent, although he didn't know what it was. He raised an eyebrow and looked at the young man curiously.

Harry knew exactly what that look was for an just shot him a glare then said, "I'm going to bed now." Without waiting to be excused he just got up and stormed out the door. When he did he ran into three Extendable Ears and smirked.

He grabbed one of them, took a deep breath, then yelled, "HELLO!"

He heard a scream from upstairs which clearly said it had been Hermione's ear he yelled in.

Smirking he took off up the stairs, attempting to get to his bedroom before Hermione could kill him, which proved to be no easy task.

All any of the Order members heard was Harry's yell of hello, a scream, running up the stairs, yells and thumps from upstairs, laughter (provided by Mark and Nikky) then silence.


The last week seemed to fly by quicker then the blink of an eye. Before Harry knew it he was dragging his trunk downstairs and hearing everyone running around, panicking and doing last minute things.

Mad-Eye was roaring orders about how they were getting there and things like that, Tonks was trying to magically put a few things away, which she succeeded at but it was messy looking, Remus was gathering everything at the door and several other Order members were doing other things.

Harry stared in amusement as Mad-Eyed roared, "Where's Potter?!"

"Right here," Harry replied. He was standing right next to the old man. Moody's magical eye had been pointing upward, seeing if Harry was still upstairs and didn't notice he was right there. He jumped a bit then said, "Don't do that boy."

"Constant Vigilance," Harry said with a chuckle.

"Learned well boy," Moody said. He started looking around then said, "Where are those girls?"

Harry noted Mark was standing by the door waiting but the two Grangers were no where in sight.

There was a crash from upstairs and Mark sighed then said, "Here they come."

Soon the two girls appeared at the bottom of the steps. Hermione was trying to fix the wrinkles in her shirt and Nicola was still brushing her dark red hair.

"Right, now lets go, we're taking cars that the Ministry provided this year ," Moody said and led the way out. Tonks rolled her eyes and mocked him silently. "I SAW THAT!" he yelled at her.

"Oh, sorry," she said innocently, moving her hand through her long brown hair. She then muttered, "Old bat."

"I HEARD THAT TOO!"


The drive to Kings Crossing was highly…interesting. Harry found it extremely amusing how Mark and Nicola would flip out about almost every book store they saw, thinking it was magic.

He chuckled, stared at Hermione, then said, "I wasn't that bad, how about you?"

Hermione giggled and said, "No way in hell."

Harry's face got a mock look of surprise on his face and he said, "Hermione Jane Granger! Watch your language in front of the little people."

Hermione started laughing at the two younger kids shot Harry a glare.

Soon enough the cars stopped at the train station and everyone piled out. After getting four trolleys and putting all of their luggage on it Moody led the way to the barrier between platforms 9 and 10.

The two first years looked confused as Moody shouted, "I'll go first, then Harry, then Remus, then Hermione, then Sturgis, then Mark, then Vance, then Nicola, and finally Tonks. Alright, move out."

"Sending us off to war already Mad-Eye?" Tonks asked innocently.

He didn't turn around but she knew he was staring at her though the back of his head as he said grimly, "You never know."

Both of the younger kids looked startled and Harry said, "Mad-Eye's a little…paranoid…don't mind him."

"You of all people Potter should know I have good reasons for being paranoid," Moody scowled.

"I know you do, but you don't need to terrify them that much, they've already seen what Death Eaters can do," Harry said as he followed the old man through the barrier and everyone else followed in their correct order that Moody instructed.

"Oh wow!" Mark and Nicola said together as they saw the red steam engine for the first time ever.

Harry smirked and said, "Watching you two goggle over the train reminds me of my first year here, which makes me sound old."

Everyone that was with them laughed and Remus said, "You are getting old there Harry."

"Which makes you very old, and makes Moody super old, and that makes Dumbledore ancient," Harry said and walked towards the train.

"Amusing," Remus said and followed him.

Harry levitated his trunk up the stairs then said, "Well I guess we should find a compartment."

"Harry we need to go to the Prefect's compartment," Hermione reminded him.

"I know," he replied. "But lets put our stuff somewhere else with these two," Harry motioned to Nicola and Mark.

"Alright," Hermione said and climbed on the train after him, levitating her stuff as well as Mark and Nikky's.

What they didn't notice was all the Order members that came with them also got on the train but went up towards the front.

The four continued walking until they came to an empty compartment in the middle of the train. Usually Harry, Hermione and Ron would go to the back of the train but things were different this year. One, Ron wasn't here, two, they had two first years to look after, and three…they just wanted to put their stuff away!

They entered the compartment and Harry moved all their stuff to the luggage rack over head.

"Now you two wait here and save two seats, for us, we'll be back in about an hour," Hermione said as she pinned her Prefect badge to the right side of her shirt and pinned Harry's on for him.

"See ya," Mark said and Nicola waved as the two remainders of the famous 'Trio' walked back towards the front of the train.


"I shouldn't be here," Harry said as he and Hermione reached the Prefect's compartment. "This is where Ron should be. It's his right, not mine."

"Oh Harry. If Ron could have anyone take his place you know he'd want it to be you," Hermione said comfortingly as she opened the door and walked in with him a step and a half behind her.

As Harry entered he noticed a circular table with one large plush bench going around it. Towards the middle sat two Ravenclaws, who had the Headboy and girl badges.

The Headgirl looked up and said, "Hello Harry." Harry knew this pretty Asian as Cho Chang, his ex-girlfriend from last year…sort of.

He nodded sharply and sat next to Hermione who was sitting beside Hannah Abbott.

"Alright, now that's we've got everyone here," the Headboy said. Harry had no clue who he was but he had seen him around before. "My name's Dave Vance. I'm the Headboy this year and your boss."

Harry didn't like him already; he had a certain air around him that reminded Harry strongly of Percy Weasley.

"Now we have three new six year prefects…replacing Ron Weasley in Gryffindor is Harry Potter and replacing Draco Malfoy and Pansy Parkinson is Slytherin is Blaise Zabini and Ebony Moon. Also welcome all fifth year prefects," Cho said happily to them.

Hermione frowned at the girl and Harry shuddered a bit, he couldn't believe he actually like this girl at one point of time…she was too bubbly for his liking now.

"Now as you know our duties are even more important this year," Dave said sternly. "We all need to be stricter about the rules. No Prefect that patrols the halls is allowed to be alone. Always stick with your housemate from the same year as you. We cannot have any fighting between us. No breaking the rules or bending laws…"

This continued on for a little while and Harry had to frown. Sometimes people HAD to break laws to do the right thing and protect other people.

"Any questions?" Dave asked as he finished. "Yeah," Harry spoke up. "Yes Harry?" Cho asked sweetly.

He gave her an odd look then said, "First I'd just like to mention that the protection around the school is going to be over the roof even without our help. Dumbledore did mention that there would be many guards stationed around Hogwarts and Hogsmead right?"

Cho and Dave both frowned and she said, "No actually he didn't…"

Harry knew he wouldn't get in trouble for saying anything, Dumbledore said he could tell anybody about the guards. "Oh, well Dumbledore himself told me there was going to be. But I have a different question too."

"Well what is it?" Dave asked darkly, obviously Harry was getting on his nerves.

Harry gave him a quick glare then said, "You mentioned no breaking rules right? Are you expecting us to follow that 24/7?"

"Of course we are Potter, why wouldn't we?" he growled.

"Never mind but I'm just saying that you can't expect me to follow ALL the rules you know," Harry admitted.

"Then hand over your badge now," Dave said and held out his hand.

"One of our duties is to protect the other students isn't it?" Hermione growled.

"Yes, why?" Cho asked, a little darker then she should have.

"Well sometimes you have to break the rules to protect people," Harry said. "Whether it be going into a forbidden corridor, going into the halls at night, not returning to our common room when told, eavesdropping, attacking a teacher, stealing something from under the Minister's nose, helping someone with something your not supposed to, having an illegal group, leaving the school grounds, or messing with time."

There was a giant pause. He just listed off many things he had done within the last five years and no doubt the list would get bigger this year.

"Get out of my sight, now," Dave growled and everybody left.

"Gotta say Potter," Ebony Moon said as she walked past him. "I'm impressed with how many rules you break, I bet that wasn't even all of them." With that she kept going knowing well that Harry and Hermione were giving her confused looks.

"You know," Hermione said as they walked towards their compartment. "I don't hear about that girl too much. I always hear complaints about Malfoy, Crabbe, Goyle, Parkinson and Bulstrode, but never her…I also never hear of Blaise Zabini either…"

"Well not all Slytherins can be bad…can they?" Harry asked her. "I mean Snape was a Slytherin and he's not EVIL, a bloody git, yes, but not evil. Plus the Slytherin house represents ambition although not many people see that now…"

"You're right, there must be a few emeralds under all those fake, green, plastic crystals," Hermione said.

Harry gave her an odd look then said, "What's with the gem reference?"

"Honestly, I have no clue," Hermione said with an airy look. "But you know Harry, I'm impressed that you, of all people, see that the Slytherin house originally didn't represent evil. No offence or anything…but you never had good run-ins with Slytherins before."

"I know," Harry said. "But if I had been sorted into Slytherin I'd still hate Voldemort as much as I do now."

"I suppose I would too. Not like the hat thought of putting either of us in Slytherin right?" Hermione said with a laugh.

Harry frowned slightly. He had never told Ron and Hermione about almost being put in Slytherin. Sure he had been accused of being Slytherin's heir in second year and Dumbledore knew, and the hat still thought he belonged there but he had never told his best friends.

Looking around to make sure no one was listening he whispered to her, "Actually, the sorting hat seriously considered putting me in…Slytherin."

She gave him a shocked look and said, "Then how did you get in Gryffindor? They're exact opposites."

"True, but their traits aren't. Courage and ambition…"

"Well yeah. You know Harry that doesn't change what I think about you. You're you, and nothing can change that," she stated as they finally reached their compartment. They looked in it to see Mark and Nicola talking to two other first years.

They both smirked and opened the door, causing the other two to look at them with shock.

"Oh," the little girl said, her eyes widening. "You're Harry Potter aren't you? I remember your picture from the paper."

Harry gave her an amused look and said, "Yes I am. And who are you?"

"I'm Rose Knight," she said and her cheeks flushed pink at the face that Harry Potter was talking to her.

Hermione eyed the little girl's hair, which was a dark pink color and her eyes were a startling pale blue.

The other was a boy with rich brown curly hair and purplish color eyes. He looked at Hermione and said, "I know you too. You're Hermione Granger."

"Oh, yes I am," Hermione said, slightly startled.

"Hermione, your friends with me," Harry said jokingly. "Of course you're famous too."

She rolled her eyes and said, "Who are you?"

"Richie Knight," he said. "Rose and I are cousins."

"That's nice," Hermione said as she and Harry sat down.

"Mark, Nicola, how do you know Harry and Hermione?" Rose asked excitedly.

"Hermione's my sister," Nicola said.

"And Harry's my cousin," Mark explained.

Harry and Hermione watched with amusement as the little first years chattered on excitedly until a worried look appeared on Harry's face.

"What's wrong?" Hermione said.

"I've got a bad feeling…" he said then suddenly there was a screeching sound of the wheels on the train.

"Cushioning Charms! NOW!" Moody's magnified voice yelled but it was too late.

The wheels of the train left the track and it smashed into the tress beside it. Hermione screamed and Harry grabbed her quickly as the train tipped over, causing windows and doors to smash and people to start screaming.


Author's Random Babbling

Been awhile eh? Well I finally got this chapter done! Woot!

Anyways this chapter didn't really turn out like I wanted it to but oh well, I don't feel like writing it a third time!

You know how people have been arguing whether Blaise Zabini is male or female? Well I looked the name Blaise up and it's actually a male name.

No those two, Rose and Richie, will NOT be major rolls in this story or any other ones, they're just friends for Mark and Nikky.

On a non-Harry Potter topic I just recently saw King Arthur and I, Robot…I liked them both and they're both pretty good! Lol!

Krystal Lily Potter

One of my favourite scenes from PoA:

Ron Weasley: [sitting bolt upright in bed] Spiders... the spiders... they were making me tap-dance. And I don't want to tap-dance!
Harry Potter: [laughing] Well go and tell those spiders Ron
Ron Weasley: Yeah tell them... I'll tell them tomorrow...
Ron Weasley: [falls straight back asleep]
