A/N: Sorry for not posting the last chapter earlier but I had a few things going on at home and was too busy to write. I can also post each chapter much quicker as I don't have to convert it to HTML before I post it. At the moment I am starting to write a new fic 'Harry Potter and the Magi academy' This means that it will be harder to update both fics at once but I still will try.

I however have a quick question to ask you readers.

Do you think I should ally Hermione with Harry or not?

Please put your answer in your next review. XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOX Harry entered the hall along with the other students. He had noticed the different atmosphere the moment he had entered the building. The students, other than Ron and hermione, were purposefully staying away from him. Some of them shooting worried glances back at him as if he would start cursing them any minute.

'And if they keep at it I think I will. A round of morsus or crucio might do them a world of good.' Harry thought, scowling at the 3rd year Hufflepuff who had turned to stare at him.

'Fools. If they were scared at what I did to the Dursleys then what im going to do to the rest of them will pale in comparison to that mere bit of fun'

Harry suddenly sensed a sharp movement to his left he spun around to see Colin Creevy holding a camera. Creevy shrieked and dropped his camera as if it had burned him. Everyone stopped at turned toward him. Harry just sighed before pushing past them and sitting down at the Gryfindor table.

'Yes' he mentally sighed 'It would be a long year' XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOX 1 hour and several plates of the finest food in the wizarding world later; Harry trooped up to Gryfindor tower alone. Having been abandoned by the rest of his house.

Gryfindor had gained 9 new students. Slytherin 8 and both Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw had gained 7 each. He quietly spoke the password and slunk into the common room. It was seemingly empty. Harry slowly entered and walked quietly over to the entrance to the boys dorm stair case when

"Harry"

He quietly sighed. He had been hoping to avoid this conversation.

"Yes Hermione"

She frowned. His tone sounded... resigned. As if he had been expecting her to ask him. She decided to be blunt

"What happened Harry? What happened to your relatives? Why did you run?"

Harry was slightly surprised. He hadn't expected for her to be so straight to the point. So bold. But of course that was a Gryfindor talent.

Harry paused before he spoke "Im not sure if I can tell you Hermione. Maybe later but not now. Goodnight Hermione." Harry quickly closed the distance between him and the dormitory steps and left the common room leaving a baffled Hermione in his wake. XOXOXOOXOXOXOXOXOXXOXOXOOXOXOXOXOXOX
