The next few days were bad for Harry. He started seeing Malfoy a lot and talking about Voldemort and the dark side. He wasn't seeing Hermione as much and she didn't like it. He had fallen out with Ron because he wouldn't back Ron up over something Ginny had done. His world was turning upside down as we know it and Harry could do nothing about it.
It was getting close to Christmas. It was a dark night and Harry and Hermione where sitting in the common room talking when Neville Longbottom ran in. He gathered his breath and said, "they're coming, they're coming for you Harry." He then pointed to the portrait and before anything else was said he collapsed. Harry and Hermione kissed and then ran towards the portrait leaving Neville in a heap on the ground. "You stay here and make sure Neville is alright," said Harry.
"Ok, be careful Harry," Said Hermione. They kissed and Harry ran through the portrait to see what the fuss was all about, most importantly who was coming to get him. He ran through the empty corridors towards the noise. It was a loud noise. Like he had heard on that dreadful night last year. When he got to the spot he stopped and stared. There were curses and hexes flying everywhere. It was like that night. There where bodies on the floor. Students, Teachers and wizards he didn't know. He looked at the people who were fighting and it was the Death Eaters again but with one addition to their team. He was standing in the middle of the corridor firing curses at every teacher and student who stood in his way. Harry went cold and reached for his wand.
The corridor was dark but the lights from the curses was lighting the place up. Harry aimed a crucio curse at the dark figure in the middle of the corridor. It missed and hit the man at his side. It was another of Harry's enemies. A man who he saw almost everyday until last year. Dumbledore put his trust in him and was betrayed. Harry has never trusted him. The two in the middle were heading for Harry. They weren't firing any spells at Harry though. They had bodies at their feet and all around them. When they got to Harry he poked his wand at them but he couldn't bring himself to do anything. "Hello Harry. Long time no see. It must have been nearly two years now." Said the first man.
"What do you want Tom. Why have you come here and you haven't tried to kill me yet," Replied Harry.
"I don't want to kill you tonight Harry. I have come to cause destruction in the school and to change you for the better."
"You can never change me," shouted Harry then suddenly Voldemort raised his wand and froze Harry. He fell but Snape caught him before he hit the ground. "Let's go. Get Draco, he has to be around here somewhere." Insisted Voldemort. The two men headed foe the main entrance. Just before they left they left the corridor they saw Draco hit a death eater with a hex. Voldemort froze Draco and picked him up. They carried the two boys out into the grounds. Snape laid Harry on the ground; Voldemort did the same with Malfoy. Voldemort unfroze the boys and Harry jumped up. "What do you want with me." Roared Harry.
"I have been monitoring you over the course of this year and I have heard that you would prefer to know me as friend than be enemies." Explained Voldemort.
"I did say that but I don't know if I want to after I saw what happened in there."
"Well, I had to get to you some way and they stood in my way. What would you have liked me to do? Stand there and let them kill me"
Harry looked at the ground then up to Voldemort. All eyes were on Harry. Malfoy didn't know what he wanted Harry to say. If Harry said he would go with Voldemort then he would have to as well. "Ok I will come with you. As long as I can come back here in a few weeks to clear some things up with my friends" said Harry with a dark look in his eyes. Malfoy didn't know what he was seeing. He had never seen Harry like this before. Voldemort and Snape smiled and nodded. "Ok, I will let you come back in a month. You will need some training in the dark arts. Me and you Harry will be great together." Replied Voldemort. After that the four headed for the gates. When they got outside Voldemort grabbed Harry and Snape grabbed Malfoy and they apparated.
