A/N: I have decided that since the three votes I got were different, that I would post on Mondays and Thursdays from now on. Though you will be able to see a sneak peak of the chapter on my message board, if I get time to put one up. (EVIL GRIN)

Yes this is only part one of this world, but it is a part that should inspire a lot of readers to hate me. (EVIL GRIN) I will not say why you will hate me here, but once you read the chapter you may figure it out.

I also tried not to be too descriptive in the latter part of this story when I am describing Tonks' double. Though when I post it on my message board I will probably have a much clearer description since I am not restricted in what I say on the board. Also I doubt that anyone will read it on there, so I can be as descriptive as I wish to be. (A link can be found to my message board by clicking on the homepage link in my profile.)

Since only one person has mentioned this in their reviews and since only one person checked out my message board so far. I decided to put the question here. Who do you think the man dressed in black is in the story? Tell who and why you think it is the person in your reviews for this chapter or go to the message board and debate it there where the question was originally posted. (A link can be found to my message board by clicking on the homepage link in my profile.)

Kkenny: Thank you for your review and for voting. First I would like to stress that this isn't a crossover with Sliders in any way. I have merely used some basic concepts from the show but none of the characters. As for any type of crossover with Star Wars, Stargate or any other of the such. I highly doubt that any crossovers will occur at this point. Maybe in later stories I may use concepts from Star Gate but I don't know yet.

Tabitha78: Thank you for your constant reviews and your e-mail. Also thanks for voting. Yeah it was yet again another chapter with a sad overtone, which I feel was derived from my emotions. I am sorry to say that hasn't changed much in this chapter either. I am glad you find Harry becoming a bit darker interesting because as he travels it might he worse, though his total darkness will not come until the end I am afraid. As for the hug well that is something that will only increase your curiosity as you continue to read this story. (EVIL GRIN)

Dweem-Angel: Thank you for your review and your vote. I am glad that Chapter 15 cleared up your confusion from Chapter 14.


Recap

Tonks nodded and followed Harry up to the Room of Requirements. Once inside they only had to wait a little over a minute for their time to run out on this world. As the timer hit zero Harry hit the button and opened the vortex. The bluish watery looking vortex appeared before them. Tonks turned to Harry and threw her arms around him squeezing him tightly. She then jumped through the vortex and vanished. Harry was in shock by Tonks action, but decided to figure it out on the next world as he jumped into the vortex and vanished.


Chapter Seventeen: Witchcraft World Part One

The bluish watery vortex opened into a room as Tonks come barreling out of it landing on her feet this time. Tonks had a big smile on her blushing face as she looked at the vortex waiting for Harry to come out. Seconds after Tonks came out; Harry came out of the vortex as well. He landed rather roughly on his feet and had to fight to stay upright.

Tonks hide her blushing face as she looked away from Harry. "Wonder where we are now?"

Harry was shocked by Tonks voice. It had been the first time in days that she had actually spoke to him. She had been really quiet since the encounter with the zombies and Harry was becoming concerned about her. Though it was good to see she was speaking again, that probably meant she was coming to terms with what had to be done on the last world.

Harry looked at the timer and then looked at Tonks. "I am not sure where we are, but we are stuck her for 4 day, 8 hours, and 33 minutes according to the timer." Harry begins to think about the same red cushioned chair he thought about every time he came into the Room of Requirements. It was his way of testing the room to make sure there was magic in the world. He was pleased to see the red chair appear beside him. "Well on the upside this is the Room of Requirements, which means there is magic on this world."

Tonks just smiled at Harry, which made him feel good to see her smile again. She made her way towards the door. "We should find out if this is your world or not."

Harry just looked at her for a moment; he wanted to find out what the hug she gave him was all about. However he knew she was right about checking out the world. His questions about her actions would have to wait until later. Harry followed behind her as she left the Room of Requirements.

As they walked down the corridor towards the Great Hall they began to hear voices. There were a lot of voices coming from the Great Hall and they all sounded excited and scared of about something.

One voice came across the most plain was the voice of Alastor Moody as he spoke aloud enough for Harry and Tonks to hear out in the corridor. "They are muggles for Merlin's sake! We can't just go slaughtering them!"

Tonks stopped dead in her tracks and Harry about ran into her backside. Tonks turned to Harry and spoke in a slight whisper that he could barely hear. "What could Moody be talking about? Why would anyone slaughter muggles?"

Harry catching the concern in her voice realized that she was scared because her father was a muggle. His aunt and uncle were muggles as well but he could careless if they were slaughtered. Harry shuttered at his thought as he looked at Tonks. "I'm not sure, but we will have to find out."

Harry walked a past Tonks and made his way towards the Great Hall. However as he drew closer the doors of the Great Hall came booming open as Alastor Moody came storming out muttering to himself. "I will never understand muggles or some thick headed wizards!"

Mad Eye Moody stopped frozen in place as he looked at Tonks and Harry standing in the corridor feet from the doors he just came out of. "Blimey!" Moody shouted as he continued to stare at the two teens. "I must been seein things. No I can't be my magic eye would not lie to me, but how can this be?"

Tonks looked at Harry and then at Moody. "Is there a problem Mr. Moody?" Tonks asked trying to be as polite as possible to the confused Auror.

Moody snapped out of his confused trance. "Don't call me mister! Tell me how did you two come to be here? Tonks how can you be here at all your dead!" Moody changed his gaze to Harry. "Harry how are you out here when you are in the Great Hall?"

Tonks was shocked by Moody's statement that she was dead. Though she had learned by now that she would have doubles on the worlds they went too. She just never really thought about finding her double dead. Though Harry had to deal with his double being dead on her real world, the war world that she left behind.

Harry looked at Tonks and then at Moody. "Mad-Eye all shall be explained once I see Dumbledore. Is he in the Great Hall?"

Moody looked at Harry for a moment still confused by what he was seeing. "No, you pissed him off and he went to his office. Well at least the Harry in the Great Hall pissed him off, though I am not sure how you got out here before me."

Harry didn't feel like arguing with Moody about how it wasn't him in the Great Hall. Harry grabbed Tonks by the arm and began to drag her with him towards Dumbledore's office. As he came up to the gargoyle blocking the entrance to Dumbledore's office he stopped in his tracks. "Blood hell I don't know his password. Lemon Drop"

The gargoyle didn't budge as Harry looked at it and then at Tonks. "We need to figure out what type of candy is the password."

Tonks' face lit up with the thought of sweets. "What about Licorice Wands? They are great."

Tonks was disappointed to find that Licorice Wands wasn't the password. Harry decided he would try again. "Canary Creams!" Harry shouted but found that the gargoyle still did not budge.

"Chocolate Frogs" yelled Tonks, but again it was useless.

"Acid Pops" shouted Harry but again he was disappointed to find that it wasn't the password. "Blood hell this could take all damn day."

Tonks however was having fun spouting off sweets that she loved. "Chocoballs, Fizzing Whizbees, Sugar Quills, Peppermint Toads, Fudge Flies!" After all those failed Tonks fell on the ground with her head in her hands. "That was all the ones I like, and yet none of them worked."

Harry looked at her and smiled. "Remember we are dealing with Dumbledore here so he would use something like Pepper Imps, Blood Pops, or Cockroach Clusters."

Harry smiled as he heard the gargoyle begin to move after saying Cockroach Clusters. Tonks jumped to her feet and looked at Harry before throwing her arms around him squeezing him tightly. "You're a genius Harry!" Tonks said as she took off up the stairs.

Harry just looked at her for a moment. Again for the second time today Tonks had hugged him tightly and he was no closer to understanding why. He pushed the hug to the back of his mind as he took off up the stairs as well.

They made their way into Dumbledore's office without even knocking. They found him with his head in his hands, as his elbows rested on his desk. He looked up from his hands and seen Harry at first. "Come to start on me again?"

The loathing in Dumbledore's voice shocked Harry. His double must have really done something or said something awful to make Dumbledore hate him so badly. "Professor look at this necklace and then I will answer anything you want. However I must ask that you listen to me and look at it."

Dumbledore looked at the necklace for a second and then stood up from his desk. He walked over and placed his hands on the shield around Harry's neck. Instantly a golden glow filled the room and Dumbledore himself began to glow gold. Within seconds it ended and the room went back to being a dull gray dimly lit room.

Dumbledore made his way over to his desk and sat back down. "Harry I understand now that you are not the same one that I have known for years. Though with the help of the necklace it is like I have known you for years as well."

Harry sat down and motioned for Tonks to sit as well. This was the first that Dumbledore had actually seen Tonks and jumped a bit in his seat. "Merlin's ghost! Tonks is that really you?"

Harry looked at Tonks and then at Dumbledore. "Yes Albus this is truly Tonks, but she is not the one from your world. She came with me from another war-ridden world. Albus please tell us what is happening here? What has happened to this world? Has Voldemort taken control?"

Dumbledore stared at Tonks for a moment longer and then looked at Harry. "If only Voldemort was the only problem. No I fear that Voldemort is only part of our problem now. Now the very muggles that I have sworn to watch out for have turned on us. After Voldemort came back into power the muggles found out about the Wizarding World. The ministry tried hiding it from them, but it didn't work. Voldemort did something so that no matter what memory charms the ministry used muggles still remembered the wizarding world. It was his plan to torment the muggles by showing them the truth that was all around them. However the muggles would not accept that magic was real. Instead they took on the approach of the old muggles in Salem Massachusetts and other parts of the world in that era. They have started the witch trials again, only now they kill without much of a trail. Most of the surviving witches and wizards have hidden away here at Hogwarts, but I fear there are more out there. Ones that could not or would not come here, and so they are being tortured and killed by muggles."

Tonks lit up as she realized what Moody had been talking about. "So that's why Moody was moodier than usual. He was yelling about not slaughtering muggles when we came in."

Dumbledore looked at Tonks and she could see there was no twinkle in his tired old eyes. "I am afraid that not many wizards hold the same views as Alastor and myself. We believe still even though the muggles are trying to kill us that we should not just go out murdering them. However Harry's double, the Harry Potter of this world doesn't see it that way. He has incited a rebellion and wants to go after the muggles. That is what he and I got into a fight about earlier. He came into the Great Hall demanding that I allow him and the other rebels to go out and slaughter all the muggles that have killed our kind."

Tonks stood up enraged by Dumbledore's statement. "That doesn't sound like Harry! Sure he becomes enraged by the injustices of the world, but I can't believe that any double of his would allow the mass murder of innocents. Especially muggles that do not know any better."

Dumbledore quietly motioned for Tonks to sit back down as he looked at her. "Normally Miss Tonks I would agree with your assessment of young Mr. Potter. However the Harry of this world has not been the same since that ungodly day. Since that day he has not seen things like he did at one time. Since that day he has sworn revenge on every last muggle that believed in killing wizards. I can see his point in it really, but he is running on pure emotion and not thinking start. If only he would view it from a logical point of view he would see that it is wrong."

Harry looked at Dumbledore for a moment before speaking. "What could have happened to him to drive him to this state of mind? What happened on the ungodly day as you have put it?"

Dumbledore looked at Harry and knew he would have to tell them though he didn't know if it was the best time to tell them or not. As he looked at them a bit longer he decided that it would probably be best if they knew what happened. Though he wasn't sure whether or not they would believe what he had to say. "It is a long story to be told, but it is one that I do believe needs being told. However I will tell you only about what happened to bring about the day of terror in the wizarding world. It began on October 31st, which was the day that the muggles struck the hardest. They had forced their way into Diagon Alley and were equipped with guns. They went in and began killing witches and wizards at will. After they started their attack Aurors and Order members went to Diagon Alley to try and stop the muggles. The muggles were fast with their guns, and though we slowed down some there were more to take their place."

Dumbledore paused as he looked at Tonks for a moment. "We were out numbered by them and even with all our magic we weren't a match for them. The first order member to be killed was Arthur Weasley. He was shot in the back as he jumped in front of Molly to protect her. After that everything went strange, it was like a wizard was fighting against us as our wands went hurling out of our hands. A great amount of us managed to Apparate out of Diagon Alley but after the first group left something happened. Someone had placed wards so no other witches or wizards could Apparate in or out of Diagon Alley. Molly Weasley, Fred and George Weasley, Nymphadora Tonks, and many other witches and wizards were taken capture by the muggles."

Harry looked at Dumbledore in disbelief. "You mean that someone from the wizarding world was helping the muggles capture those in Diagon Alley? It had to be Voldemort!"

Dumbledore just looked at Harry for a moment. "At first I thought it was weird that a witch or wizard would help the muggles. Then I thought that maybe Voldemort was behind it but he would not help muggles even if it did get rid of some of his enemies. That is not his style, but there was definitely someone helping them. There isn't any other way the muggles could have captured so many of us at once. After the muggles captured the witches and wizards in Diagon Alley they were taken to a prison set up by the muggles. Since the muggles had banned all use of magic they felt that it was legal to kill anyone that broke the law. First they killed Abigail Little, she was a witch that happened to be in Diagon Alley that day. They killed her on November 6th in a public execution at the Tower of London. They continued to execute witches and wizards at random in a public fashion. Fred Weasley was put to death on January 13th, George Weasley died on March 28th, and Molly Weasley was killed on May 17th. If these deaths were not bad enough to drive the Harry of this world mad the next one surely did it. It was on June 6th that Nymphadora Tonks was taken to the Tower of London. It was clear to all those that seen her, that she had been tortured most of all. She was dressed in clothes that only one would see on a house elf. They were torn and dirty beyond belief. Where they were torn you could see dried blood, bruises, and burn marks. She did not even look like herself as she stood before the executioner. No she looked like she had been placed into Azkaban for years by the way she looked. The torment that she went through for eight months surely broke her will and possible her spirit."

Dumbledore paused again as he looked at the horrified expressions on Tonks' and Harry's faces. Tonks looked the worst because it was her double that Dumbledore was talking about.

Tonks used this pause in the story to express her rage. "Why didn't anyone try and save them? Why didn't the Order or the Ministry try and save them before they were killed?"

Dumbledore put his head down in shame. "We truly did Miss Tonks, it pains me to say that again we found that the muggles had help. Someone or a group of people was preventing us from saving them. We could not get near the prison or the public executions at the Tower of London. We were able to watch the executions from afar but could not get close enough to help."

Harry looked at Tonks and then at Dumbledore. "I am beginning to see why my double dislikes muggles, and if he has dealt with relatives like mine then I can fully understand his motives. However I still can't see myself or my double agreeing to a mass slaughter of them. Even less so I can't see me leading the revolt to kill them all."

Dumbledore once again looked at Tonks and then at Harry. "That is because you are missing a key point to this story. Things that happened before the executions started. Things that I only knew before the death of Nymphadora Tonks."

Tonks again was enraged that Dumbledore was with holding information. "Look Professor if we are going to help in any way we need to know everything! That means you need to tell us everything that happened before the executions!"

Dumbledore again lowered his head for a moment as he thought about what he had to tell them. 'I will have to tell them everything or else they will not understand the full effect of what happened on June Sixth.' Thought Dumbledore as he raised his head and looked at them again.

"It all started the summer following Harry's fifth year here at Hogwarts." Started Dumbledore as he looked at Tonks and Harry. "Harry returned to stay with his Aunt and Uncle though he hated the Dursleys. I had decided that it would be best if Order members continued to keep an eye on him during the summer. I also decided that Harry needed to continue his Occlumency lessons. Though I knew that he would not learn anything from Snape after what happened. I was busy with other things pertaining to the school and couldn't free up time to train him. That is when I got the idea to allow Nymphadora Tonks teach him Occlumency over the summer. I fear that it was my idea and foolishness that caused Harry to become the man he is now."

"You see over the summer Harry and Tonks became closer during their lessons. Harry began to like Tonks a lot and Tonks was beginning to fall for Harry as well. The two of them fell in love and hid it from the world as much as possible. However they felt that I should know the truth about them. I was not excited about their relationship, but I was glad that Harry was happy. Harry told me that he wanted to marry Tonks after he graduated from Hogwarts, but that would not happen. Instead Harry had to watch as the only woman he ever truly loved was murdered by muggles. That is when Harry snapped he sworn his revenge on them and would not return to Hogwarts for schooling. Today was the first time I have seen Harry in two years, but I knew he was different today, he was darker than I had ever known him to be."

A/N: Well this will be a multi chapter world also like a few others. I get lost in my writing at times and go beyond what I had originally planned. That is why now it looks like there may be 40 or more chapters instead of the 31 I had started out writing towards. Oh well Review and be sure to answer my question from the above Author Note. Also you can tell me how EVIL I am when you REVIEW!
