By: Krystal Lily Potter
Chapter Thirteen: Signs in Dreams
Rating: AA (which means, around here, 14 and up)
Couples: HP/HG, KB/RW/LL, NL/GW/DM, GW/DM/EM
Summary: Harry's last year at Hogwarts has finally come but that doesn't mean things will be any easier for him. After last year's horrifying events the school things that nothing worse could happen. They were all wrong. The prophecy resurfaces and is dangling in front of Harry, held up by the pain from the past, quite literally. As the world is slowly being morphed outside of the safety of Hogwarts the people inside it are finding out that they cannot hide for much longer and that time is as much their best friend now as it is their worst enemy. What is a person supposed to do when they know they have to face the most evil wizard in history and if they're killed then the rest of the world, magic and muggle is doomed?
Warning: More violence then last time. There are mentions of suicide, murder, rape, and sex (I don't go into details with that). There will also be fighting, cursing (and I don't mean spells) and gory stuff. For now the rating stays AA/PG-13 but later, towards the end, it might go up to R.

Heed this warning if you don't like death: there will be A LOT more deaths of characters you recognise from JKRs books and some original ones. If you thought I was cruel and brutal in the prequel to this then I don't know what you're going to think of me after reading this story.

Sequel to Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince

Well, I was going through this story and I thought it didn't have enough…zing to it so I decided to add some more into the plot. At first I thought (well jut a little more can't hurt) right….I got going and I ended up with 5 more chapters then I originally had! LOL! Well this should be fun eh?


Also I mentioned three chapter titles in chapter 9 (To Lighten the Mood). I've gone past two already but the third one I mentioned was chapter 28 (Ron's Battle) well that's been changed. The chapter called "Ron's Battle" is actually Chapter 32 now (Meaning I added four in between). So what's chapter 28 now you all ask? Sorry but I'm not telling!

(That has nothing to do with this chapter but Joe is so cool)

Harry looked around with confusion. He was in a hallway once again.

"Why have all my dreams, for the past two years, taken place in a hallway?" he wondered out loud. He didn't know how he knew he was dreaming but he did.

"A hallway symbolizes your choice of going ahead into the future and the unknown or turning back to the safety of everything you already know," a female voice explained.

Harry whipped around at the familiar voice and saw a transparent young woman with strawberry blond hair and dark brown eyes. A smile appeared on his face and he said, "Gemma!"

His (dead) older sister smiled at him and said, "Hey Harry."

"I thought you couldn't come anymore?" he said, "When you broke the rules last year regarding what you were allowed to tell me…"

"That's true but you see a guardian can visit that person one last time but only in a dream," she explained seriously, "I came to give you a very important message."

"What is it?" he asked.

"Well there are two things actually but I have permission to tell them both to you.. Wormtail has gone missing from the Death Eaters. No one knows where he is or anything. Voldemort doesn't like that one bit because apparently he had some very important information for him. I found out what happened to a point, Peter found the Orb of Eifl."

"The Orb of Eifl?" Harry questioned.

"The Orb of Life. It will appear in a time of great danger and a person can bring back one, and only one person from the dead. That person can be evil or good, it doesn't matter. I don't know who he brought back but I can tell you he DID bring back someone. That's why he's not around anymore, he traded his life for someone else's," Gemma explained with a serious note to her voice.

"Who could it be?" Harry asked himself.

"I've thought about that too and I came to a conclusion that it COULD have been Evelyn, being his sister and all," she said seriously, "But I can't be sure. It'd only make sense. But then again it might not be because remember, he owes you his life."

"God," Harry said, "Wait, you said you had two things to tell me…"

"Yes I do," Gemma said as she sat cross-legged, floating in the air in front of him, "I'm not allowed to tell you right out this time. I'm not, no questions asked. What I came to tell you is that the war will hit Hogwarts sooner then anybody thinks."

"How soon?" he asked with a panicked look.

"It's going to happen on the anniversary of the thing you hate most," she warned him gravely.

Harry noticed the scenery was starting to fade and he knew he was waking up.

"Gemma wait," he said, "What anniversary?"

"You'll know in your heart when it comes," she explained before everything disappeared, "Goodbye brother, I'll see you when you get here, just don't come too soon."

Harry sat up in his bed and looked around the room. It was still dark outside so he assumed it was early. Looking over at his alarm clock he groaned angrily, it was only 2:00am.

He attempted to get back to sleep but to no avail. There was this restless feeling inside of him that he couldn't shake off, like he knew something really bad was going to happen soon but he couldn't figure out what.

He got up and started walking around, unable to think of anything to do at 2:00 in the morning aside from sleep, which he didn't want to do at the moment.

He picked up his wand and started twirling it in his hand like a baton, causing sparks to shoot out of the end. He eventually got bored of that and threw it on the desk that was in his room then laid back on his bed again.

His mind went into deep thinking mode as he thought about what happened in the past two weeks of school. Absolutely nothing. Sure his classes proved to be interesting this year (yes, even Potions) but there wasn't a sense of adventure around yet. No teacher had even mentioned Quidditch yet.

The most interesting things that had happened were his private classes with Professor Nickleson. He found out that as long as you held hate in you then it was possible to cast Cruciatus and Avada Kedavra. He mastered Imperio but she said that one was the easiest of them all. Another thing that had been fun was when there was a meeting with all the Headboys, Headgirls and Deputy Headmasters/mistresses of all the schools (except for Sunspot because they left). It was quite amusing because they had to negotiate times for Quidditch matches and Hogsmead trips. They had come up with a tournament idea between all the schools for Quidditch but that idea had quickly been erased because no one knew when the individual schools would be leaving. They came up with Hogsmead schedules but none for Quidditch as of yet.

One thing Harry had noticed was when he returned to school Voldemort's attacks seemed to become less and less and finally they stopped and no one was quite sure why. He had heard that the new Minister would be coming to Hogwarts sometime soon so all the teachers were on their toes about what they were teaching. They stuck to the material the Ministry suggested for the last little while, just in case Minister Dae decided to show up without warning.

He tossed all those thoughts out of his head and muttered, "The day I hate most…" He closed his eyes for a moment and saw a flash of emerald light then he heard a scream, followed by loud laughter. His eyes flew open and he said, "Of course when my parents died. Halloween 16 years ago…"

Harry sighed and threw his covers back over himself as he desperately tried to get more sleep, he knew he'd need it; he had potions coming up that day! It didn't come very easily though since Halloween was closer then anyone really realized.

For reasons nobody else could predict Harry was in a terrible mood that morning. Maybe it was from the lack of sleep and the access thinking but not even Hermione would pretend to smack him around, which was a morning ritual by now.

At breakfast he picked at his food before saying in a sarcastic voice, "Herbology, Potions and Ancient Runes, what a great day."

"Someone didn't wake up on the right side of the bed today," Parvati commented as she walked by and sat down beside Lavender.

Harry grumbled something and stabbed his pancakes and glaring at them as if they had caused his lack of sleep and his morning grumpiness.

He looked up at the head table and said, "Who the hell is that? He's not a Headmaster."

Everyone that heard him looked up and studied the man curiously then a bubbly voice said, "That's Teather Day."

Lavender turned around and said, "How do you know Ashleigh?"

Ashleigh Brown looked at her half sister as if she was dirt for a minute then she said, "I met him when I was out with mother."

"Go away," the blonde girl said and her little sister stormed off angrily.

"You could have been a little nicer to her Lavender," Hermione said after a moment.

"Coulda, woulda, shoulda," Lavender replied, causing everyone to stare at her, "What? One of the American boys said it to me!"

"Of course," Hermione replied airily and took Harry's hand into her own as she shovelled in the last of her food.

"Well you can't blame me for being mean to her, she is a stuck up snob," Lavender insisted.

"That's the Malfoy blood," Ron said out of the blue. That was true, Lavender and Ashleigh had different mothers. Lavender's mother had been a muggle and she left once she found out her husband was a wizard, leaving Lavender behind. Afterwards he met a woman named Janessa Malfoy, the younger sister of Lucius Malfoy (who was disowned when she married Brown) and they had Ashleigh.

"Done?" Harry asked Hermione suddenly, receiving a nod as she drank the last of her pumpkin juice and stood up.

"Alright, must be off to Herbology," Harry said to the others.

"See ya later," Ron said through a mouthful of food.

"Swallow before you speak Ronald," Hermione said with a groan as she took Harry's hand and the two walked out of the great hall and towards the greenhouses.

Harry's mood grew steadily worse as the day progressed. The feeling of something bad happening that day had increased 10 fold.

In Herbology they were working with what looked like normal roses but apparently they could shoot their thorns at people and they could let off a scent that would knock someone out for a good few hours. It just happened that they had to get some petals off of these particular plants for potions, which was their next class.

"Now everyone be gentile with them," Professor Sprout warned them, "I wouldn't be surprised if a couple of you are allergic to them."

Hannah Abbott raised her hand and said, "I didn't know a person could be allergic to magical plants."

"Of course they could," Neville said to her before Professor Sprout could even open her mouth, "Magical plants are just like the normal plants."

Harry grumbled, "Nobody cares and can't this class get over soon, stupid boring week."

Hermione smacked his arm and glared at him. He glared back at her then looked back at their teacher.

Once the class got started Harry had to admit the flowers looked lovely and they smelled very good but he knew that they were really dangerous.

He muttered something about wanting to put one in Snape's classroom and seeing what it did when the Potions Master stormed in like he always did.

Hermione stopped him when he was about to touch it and said, "You're stress level is really high and these are very fragile. Maybe you shouldn't touch them."

"I don't want to play with pretty little flowers, Hermione," he said with an annoyed voice, "I should be doing something more useful."

Neville looked highly insulted and Ron muttered something about him being a decent student in this class. Apparently he had spoken louder then he had meant to and the entire class, including Professor Sprout heard him.

"Well Mr. Potter," she said sourly, appalled with the fact that one of her students thought her subject was useless, "You don't have to be here."

Harry's temper seemed to bubble just below boiling point and it seemed to him that the room heated up along with that. Suddenly he realized the room had indeed heated up. He wasn't really interested in that though. He grabbed his bag and started walking towards the door.

"Running away Potter?" Malfoy shot as he passed by him.

Harry stopped walking, faced him and shot him a glare and was about to say something but he stopped. His eyes landed on Crabbe and Goyle, beside Malfoy. They were roughly grabbing the plants on the table, being the stupid people they were.

Suddenly the two pots fell to the floor and shattered on the ground. The two great idiots backed up with shock at the loud sound.

Harry managed to cover his mouth and nose with his robes and he backed away from the smell as did Draco but Hermione, who had started walking after him when he stormed away didn't get a chance to do anything. She started coughing violently before fainting onto the ground.

There seemed to be chaos in the greenhouse after that. Keeping his mouth and nose covered he ran over to Hermione and started hoisting her up but he felt really awkward trying to carry her and keep his face covered at the same time.

Much to his shock Draco came over beside him and also hoisted her up with his free arm. The rest of the class had already made their way outside luckily. The blond nodded at Harry and they walked while supporting the girl between them.

Once they were outside Harry could breath right again then he picked up his girlfriend all the way and looked at Draco curiously.

"This doesn't change anything between us Potter," he snapped at him.

"Wouldn't dream of anything ever changing," Harry replied in the same tone then he said, "Thanks."

The Slytherin nodded before quickly turning and going the other way.

"Oh dear," Professor Sprout said, rushing over quickly, "see the red on her cheeks? That means she had an allergic reaction to the smell. Take her up to the hospital wing, hurry!"

"I'm sorry for being an ass Professor," he said then took off before she could say anything about his choice of language.

Harry had managed to persuade Madam Pomfrey to let him stay in the hospital wing with Hermione (he really didn't want to go to Potions) but it was on the condition that he stayed quiet. He found it a fair trade since there was no one else there and he didn't feel like talking to himself or the voices running around in his head. That would just make more people think he was insane. No one else was in the hospital wing at the time but he was positive that the rumour could easily be spread around.

He played with the hem of his shirt while he waited for Hermione to wake up. He had to admit, he did feel really bad for what happened but he also kept thinking, 'She didn't need to try and follow me just to growl at me!'

Harry wasn't quite sure what was going on with him that day. His mind was spinning, and a spike of anger shot through his body every five minutes. At first he thought it was one of Voldemort's emotions but he soon realized that it was actually his own.

Suddenly there was a yell from in the hallways. Madam Pomfrey stormed out of her office angrily and was about to growl at Harry when she realized he had not been the one making the loud noise.

The door flew open and the Minister of Magic, Teather Dae, strode into the room followed by an angry looking Dumbledore, McGonagall, Snape, Flitwick and Sprout.

"What is the meaning of this?" the Healer asked angrily.

"Poppy Pomfrey I am here to tell you that you are, until further notice, suspended from this school," Dae said, receiving a shocked look from the woman, who stared at Dumbledore with wide eyes.

"Now Mr. Dae," Dumbledore said, "I do not believe that is nessicary."

"Of course it is," Dae snapped back, "I will bring in my own, better healer."

Harry snorted, as much as he didn't like the hospital wing, he personally thought Madam Pomfrey was the best healer around, and he had met a few by now.

This caused the Minister's attention and said, "Ahh yes Mr. Potter, I've been meaning to have a word with you about your discipline."

"He does not have a discipline problem," Professor McGonagall interjected, despite the knowledge that she would be in trouble for doing so, "Every person has their bad days and it happens that today is one of his."

"Minerva if you don't be quite I will suspend you as well," Dae snapped.

"What about my healing classes?" Pomfrey asked wildly, "And my patients?"

"You're patients will be taken care of by a Medi-wizard of my choice and there will be no more Healing classes, it's a waste of time."

Harry raised an eyebrow at the Minister; he didn't even find healing a waste of time and all he did in that class was complain! He had learned how to patch himself up quite nicely after all his many injuries.

"Now Poppy, get out of my school," Teather Dae said.

Dumbledore's eyes flashed dangerously and he said, "Now Minister there is something you have to accept. This is my school, not yours. Now you can ask my teacher to stop teaching, I accept that, but Poppy, I wish for you to stay in the school (his eyes twinkled for a moment before fading out) because it is too dangerous outside the walls. Minister put in who you wish but I make it clear now that, even though it is your right, you will not be removing any teachers from this school."

"Fine!" Dae yelled, "But there will be someone in the school present at all times that will be in contact with me. She'll be here tomorrow." He turned around and stormed out of the room.

"Poppy," Minerva said.

"No, I'll be quite alright, but I cannot leave while Ms. Granger is still here," she said in a distressed tone and looked over where Hermione lay. "But I should collect my things from my office. Mr. Potter, watch over her for me." She turned and walked into her office and McGonagall and Sprout followed her.

"Headmaster," Snape said suddenly, "Who do you think he'll be sending to be Healer and to be this…spy."

"I have my theories about it and it is something I must discuss with all teachers before tomorrow for our privacy has been invaded by the most unwanted of people," his pale blue eyes shifted and looked at Harry then he said, "Good day Mr. Potter and please collect your and Ms. Granger's homework at the end of the day."

"Yes sir," he said as the teacher's walked out. He had said that in a bit of a weird voice because Snape hadn't sent him a look of loathing or anything else. It was very odd.

"Hurry up and wake up Mione, I really don't want to attempt Snapie's homework on my own," he whispered to the girl. He took her hand in his and put his head beside it and slowly fell asleep.

"And another hallway, wow this is becoming very surprising," Harry said to himself sarcastically. There was one thing he took into consideration though when looking around, he knew Gemma wouldn't be showing up this time and this hallway wasn't plain nor covered in blood, it was covered in pictures instead. Also he noticed he had a dull headache.

"These are memories," someone said.

Harry looked up and saw a replica of himself and he said, "Vulcan?"

"No, no, I'm you. I'm just here to explain what this is then I'm going back into your mind. You see a person can be split into many different people and I happen to be the 'all seeing' one," the other Harry said with a wave of his hand, "You'll probably never see me again so don't lose sleep on it, when you do it makes me cranky too but that's not the point. There are clues that have been stored up into your brain until now about how to beat Voldemort. These are all the ones from last year and this year. It's time you've put all the puzzle pieces together and get something because you, we're running out of time."

Harry nodded then said, "How do I get these to work?"

"Touch them," he explained, "Once you've cracked the code you'll wake up so do it fast so you wake up before Hermione does. Good luck." With that the second Harry was gone as was Harry's headache.

"My head hurt," he said slowly, "Because there was a piece of me missing while the other Harry was here instead of in my mind. Confusing but it works for me. Anyways since I'm just talking to myself I should go to work looking at these memories."

He walked to the first one to see the Great Hall. Looking closely at the little first years lined up, waiting to be sorted he knew it was from last year. He touched the portrait with his hand then a song was heard and as the song was sang the lyrics appeared on the now black picture.

A thousand years ago,
In the time of the founders,
There was a terrible story,
Of very many powers.
In the amidst of this war,
Stood the founders four,
They stood together and did not part,
They were the hope for the world.
Gryffindor, the bravest,
He did lead this strife,
Survive he did by courage,
Through all those blackened nights.
Ravenclaw, the wise,
She created the plans,
Beating them all through wisdom,
Never fearing to fall.
Hufflepuff, the kind,
She was a spy for us,
Fooled others with her kindness,
The upper hand we had.
Slytherin, the ambitious,
He betrayed them all,
A pledge was formed for his forgiveness,
Although it still stands today.
These are the four houses,
Gryffindor for those with courage,
Ravenclaw for those with knowledge,
Hufflepuff for those with kindness,
And Slytherin for those with ambition.
I'm the sorting hat, here to put you where you belong
Although what I do, I believe is wrong,
In this time when we need each other.
Take heed for these darks days have started,
Danger, heartbreak and trouble are coming.
Follow the leader of Gryffindor,
Listen to the leader of Ravenclaw,
Trust the leader of Hufflepuff,
And forgive the leader of Slytherin.
Now that I've stated my warning,
It's time for these little kiddies to have fun,
For as I finish this song's non-rhymes,
The sorting has finally begun.

"The sorting song, what does that have to do with anything?" he wondered out loud then listened as it played over and over again until he had the words memorized. As he looked at the words and said it to himself he finally said, "Gryffindor was the brave one and he was pretty much the leader, Ravenclaw was smart and she was the planner, Hufflepuff was so kind that no own could have guessed she was a spy and Slytherin betrayed them but there was a pledge or whatever formed to allow the Slytherins to be forgiven."

He read the bottom then said, "Follow the leader of Gryffindor, listen to the leader of Ravenclaw, Trust the leader of Hufflepuff and forgive the leader of Slytherin…"

It was as if a light bulb had gone off in his head as he said, "Of course, I'm the leader of Gryffindor, the hat mentioned that again this year to put me on the right track when it realized I didn't get it's message. Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff and Slytherin…Ravenclaw's harder. I'd say Luna but I have a feeling that they have to be in my year…Hufflepuff, that's hard too, maybe Susan Bones…Slytherin…yes I know who I have to forgive, Malfoy. So in the end the Gryffindors will be leading, the Ravenclaws will be setting up the plans, the Hufflepuffs will be spying and the Slytherins, some will betray us but other's will be forgiven, meaning a new talent will arise from them!"

The black photo suddenly became white with a little checkmark.

"One down, a lot more to go…" he muttered to himself.

When Harry awoke he was very pleased with himself. He had uncovered some information that he was positive Dumbledore wouldn't have told him. Looking down he saw Hermione stir then her brown eyes opened.

"Just in time," he thought to himself but said, "Are you ok?"

"Yes, I think so," she said and sat up, "Where's Madam Pomfrey? She let you stay?"

Harry frowned and explained to Hermione what happened with Teather Dae.

"That man is horrible!" she cried out after hearing the whole story.

"I know he is," Harry said to her, "But Madam Pomfrey will still be here so I bet we could go see her and she would help us with no problem. Probably even teach us if we asked."

"I suppose so," she replied but with uncertainty in her voice. They both were thinking the exact same thing at that moment. That the Ministry, for some odd reason, was slowly trying to destroy Hogwarts from the inside out."

"Are you ok Hermy?" Ron asked her when the two got to class the next morning as they all entered the Charms classroom.

"I'm fine but you won't be unless you stop calling me Hermy," she said viciously.

"She's been like this since she woke up," Harry explained to Ron, seeing the red head's shocked face.

Ron grinned and said, "What we're you two doing?"

"Nothing that would be considered rated R or higher because I know that's what you're thinking," Harry replied.

Hermione glared at the two of them before grabbing her Charms book and putting it on the desk in front of her.

Ron (who was on the opposite side of Harry) leaned forewards and whispered to Hermione with a grin that could rival the Cheshire cat's, "Might want to cover the hickey."

Her face turned about 50 shades of interesting red colours and both boys chuckled wickedly at her as she let her hair hang over her neck.

A few minutes later an angry looking Professor Flitwick walked into the room, hopped on his pile of books and said, "Well our new healer, Madam Barnaby ("Let's call her Madam Barney!" Dean called and all the Muggle-borns, or people who grew up knowing muggle TV shows.)…"

"I always hated that show," Harry commented.

"When I was three I liked it," Hermione said then turned back to Flitwick who had paused while they talked.

"Anyways, yes she is the new Healer here but to be honest she is a vial person, if you need something come to me rather then going to her, I know quite a few good healing charms as well as dueling ones. Also our inspector is here," Flitwick said, a huge frown appearing on his face.

"Who is it?" someone called.

Professor Flitwick was about to say a name when the floor flew open and the inspector herself walked in.

Everyone's mouths fell open and they all looked too shocked to say anything.

"Why the bloody hell did SHE come back?" Ron growled. He had been the first person to speak up and it had only been in a whisper for Harry and Hermione to hear.

Delores Jane Umbridge was back.

Author's Note

MUHAHAHAHAHA I'm evil! (Grins) yes I brought Umbridge back PLUS I ended it there. DOUBLE WHAMMY! I figured you were tired of waiting for me to update, it's been along time. I didn't want to fool you all by making you think this was like a super chapter because it's not, I just had a hard time TRYING to make it interesting so I kinda gave up in the end. This IS an important one though.

Also Like I mentioned about I'm going to be making this story more…well interesting. Just so you know ahead I DO NOT write sex scenes, I'll imply it but not write it so don't worry about that (for the people that might have worried). But I'm not implying any for awhile either so meh. But yeah I've made MORE triangles and this should be interesting, needless to say. Here's a hint, the person I'm bringing in, his father is a Headmaster of one of the other schools there. You should all know who it is!

Anyways on another topic my theatre (which is really behind when it comes to movies) just got National Treasure in and I saw it last night. It was awesome! My friend got annoyed at me because I knew all the history behind the treasure and things like that! LOL!

Well I best be off! See ya'll later! And just so you know I can promise that there won't be another update before my birthday…

Anyways…

Danboy – Wow, you sure do have an imagination but no, Luna will not be going off with Ginny…Death Eaters, well I think I came pretty close in this chapter, don't you think? LMAO yeah I think everyone knew what you were thinking. Draco, well he's a hard case, I promise we'll see a lot more of him in this story then we did in the last one, same with Remus and the other adults too. You do have good suggestions though (for the most part) and I'll take them into consideration.

Colorguardbaby23 – lol well I'm sorry bout kicking all the hott guys out early then. Although remember what Dumbledore said in book for about being stronger united then apart (Hint) and I think you're on the right track with the teacher although I gave a lot away in this chapter didn't I?

Ultra-violet-catastrophy – Hope you get better soon and I'm going to update as fast as possible. There's nothing wrong with this site at all. I dunno, should you trust Nickleson? Er…I'm not sure if I'll get it done in three days…I especially don't like it when people rush me…no it was Evelyn that was killed that way. I did read your fic but my computer's still being an ass, I can't review anything for some reason…its nothing personal…

Goddess-Hope – That could be a possibility, but I'm not going to give anything away too soon.

Drake Smythe – Yeah that was true, Harry was the only one to throw it off. Oh lord, that's the first thing anybody pointed out that I don't have a way to respond to it.

Jada1010 – LOL well you're welcome for putting your name in and yes I am Canadian.

Holimontski – I always knew I had too many people there, I just wasn't going to mention them much, and I was planning on sending them all home from the beginning anyways. The DADA teacher, everyone seems to suspect her.

Zircronium – Harry did (in my Half Blood Prince) and Hermione did too (in Order of the Phoenix, or at least that's what I made the curse that hit Hermione at the end of it be.

Beth3372 – Do you have that review writing down then just copy and paste? LOL because it's the same thing every time! Oh wells though, thanks for reviewing.

Urazz – He's the Minister of Magic as of now but I'd like to know how you came up with that conclusion? You know, for my own curiosity's sake. Honestly you'll never know if I'm playing with you guys or not, unless I tell you of course but I'm not going to do that on this one.

Atrus Valentein – Peter was mentioned in this chapter, I had that planned for awhile and the Sarah/Molly thing is not important, not at all so no it's not going to be mentioned. Keep the animals, I've got all I need right here.

QueenWeasel- Yeah I get what you mean but his name is sounded Teeth-er Day. No I'm not throwing Lavender back in it, poor guy, but I'm not going to say who he's going to choose because that would just suck all the fun out of the story!

Hpfanchrissy1502 – Would you call me bringing Umbridge back totally unexpected? LOL! Yes I know, I'm evil.

Carn – I want it to be interesting, and the little couples thing will give nice little twists to chapter, don't ya think? Nickleson is supposed to be confusing! LOL!

Aqua Mage – LOL! That's bad! Poor Ron, but I like that idea all the same!

Loup3402 – lol thank you, I liked that sheet too. Ron's actually thinking this time

Lunatic Pandoral – Well the fake Moody in fourth year did it but I suppose it was probably because Harry was in the room and he hated him. That is a good point and it actually IS one I thought about before, and believe it or not that's sort of a hint that no one else but you caught yet.

Semebo – lol four reviews in one, most people wouldn't bother with that. You almost fell off your chair reading the PROS and CONS list? LOL! Well thanks for all those good reviews!

Ryan – They picked Ron and Lavender because Harry suggested he'd like to see what the Nymph would look like. LOL, I'm just kidden, I guess they just picked Ron and Lavender because I didn't want to choose Harry and Hermione and they were just there.

CastusAlbusCor – lol well thank you! Even I can admit the last chapter was boring as hell and I'm the author!

Shawn Pickett – No, 'I' was saying the last chapter was boring! Yes, Marie Nickleson will be teaching Harry how to use the curses and I agree Harry sould have learned the killing curse along time ago but really in the last battle he's not going to be able to use his wand if you think about it so he'll have to find some other way of doing it (hint). He's not going to trust Nickleson like he did with Evelyn though.

Maiden-of-Hope – LOL I wasn't going to shoot! LOL well it was better then the chapter BEFORE that boring wise. Professor Nickleson might be evil, she might not be. I'm the only one that knows!

UltimateHPfreak – I love em too, they're awesome! I dunno, should you trust Professor Nickleson?

TwistedNecro – LOL thank you and I'll keep that typo in mind, truthfully I would notice but I really don't care for some reason…guess it's because I'm writing something more original that's more important and I'm grammar and spelling crazy on that…

Idiot with reason – Well…that was interesting. Er…Leah might be important she might not be. I've already got a ridiculously large amount of characters in this already and I don't really need anymore. Read it all on time? I didn't know there was a time limit to read it in (LOL)

Bulebell-uk – Really? That's pretty cool. Good on you though! I wouldn't have figured there was anything odd with the name, I'd just think it was just an odd one.

Purebloodprince – Thank you

Great Merciful Goddess – Luna is out of character but it's more for my amusement then anything. Plus in book 5 she was 14 now she's 16, things have probably change with her. Yes Peter did bring someone back but I'm not telling whoooooo! LOL! I'm so mean…

Rising waves – Harry's going to be learning a lot more then just the killing curses.

Harry James Gryffindor Potter – lol that's ok and thanks.
