A/N: Thanks for the reviews everyone, I really appreciate it.
Thinking
"Talking"
Chapter 6- Return
Harry stroked his dual wands through the sleeves of the Hogwarts robe.
Ron and Hermione were at the prefect meeting and Ginny was with her 5th year friends, so that left Harry all alone for most of the train ride.
I should go visit Neville, Seamus and Dean.
Harry rose to his feet and looked out the window to see how much of the day they had left when the compartment door opened.
"Oh look, Potter's got no friends"
Harry tensed and turned to face Malfoy…only to see that it wasn't Malfoy mocking him.
"Nott!" Harry exclaimed, coming face to face with Theodore Nott along with what were Malfoy's goons.
"What happened to Malfoy?" Harry asked them, despite the situation.
Nott smiled maliciously, "Let's just say there has been a power swap in the Slytherin House this year".
Harry yawned, "Well that's great, bye" he said, and pushed past him.
"You better watch your back Potter…because I'll be stepping on it" Nott called from behind him.
"Malfoy has been trying to beat me for 6 years, what makes you think you'll be any better?"
Nott smirked, "he was reluctant to deal with you…I won't be".
Harry was silent for a few moments, before he burst out laughing.
"Oh Merlin….that was funny…" Harry said in between laughs.
Nott's face was red with anger as his hand dived for his wand, instantly Harry stopped laughing and drew his wand so fast that Crabbe and Goyle could only look at it stupidly.
"I wouldn't do that if I were you" Harry told him dangerously.
Goyle grunted, and swung a wide punch at Harry.
Harry spun and slammed the butt of his wand into a pressure point on Goyle's arm before the punch hit him.
"Me arm's gone dead" Goyle said stupidly, swinging his limp arm back and forth.
"Anyone else?" Harry asked coldly, twirling his wand in his fingers.
"We'll get you Potter, just you wait!" Nott said angrily and swept down the corridor.
Harry turned and continued walking down towards Neville's compartment.
"Nice move Potter"
Harry glanced over his shoulder and came to a halt.
"Thanks Malfoy" Harry said simply and started walking again.
……………..
"Hey guys, mind if I join you?" Harry asked from the doorway.
Neville, Seamus and Dean were playing exploding snap on the floor of the compartment.
"Sure Harry, come play" Neville said cheerfully.
Harry grinned and sat down with them.
"Are we betting?"
………….
"There you are Harry! We have been looking all over for you, you won't believe the rumors we have heard. Saying you have gotten into a fight ALREADY" Hermione gushed, when she and Ron had found Harry with Neville, Seamus and Dean.
Harry had the decency to blush, Hermione eyed him suspiciously.
"You didn't actually fight already did you?"
"Sorta…I wouldn't call it a fight" Harry said sheepishly.
"And it wasn't with Malfoy" Harry added, trying to change the subject slightly.
"Who was it?" Ron asked, confused since most of the fights Harry had was with the platinum haired Slytherin.
"Nott…it seems there has been a power shift in the Slytherin house" Harry said, cleaning his glasses.
"Well, we have to talk about this later, the train is slowing down" Hermione said, already out of the door.
……………..
Harry watched silently all through the sorting and Dumbledore's messages, but a sharp poke in the ribs brought him back to his senses.
"So what do you think?" Hermione asked, Harry frowned, "think about what?"
Hermione sighed, "About starting up DA again".
"Definitely" Harry replied.
Hermione smiled at him, just as food appeared on their plates.
…………………
Harry rubbed his temples, the Gryffindor common room was always a loud affair and right he wanted some quiet.
And rather than head to slightly quieter dorm room, Harry slipped out of the portrait hole for a quiet walk through the Hogwarts halls.
Harry walked…and walked…then walked some more…thoughts occupying his mind.
So when the time came that Harry came to his senses, he had no idea where he was.
He looked around; it's the dungeons…I think
Voices carried through the quiet dungeon, one sounded menacing…threatening.
I really shouldn't…it's probably none of my business… oh whatever
Harry cast a notice-me-not charm on himself and crept forwards to the sound of the talking.
Harry stopped 5 meters away; he doubted that anyone would notice him even if he didn't have any charms on.
It was Nott, Crabbe, Goyle and 3 other nameless Slytherins, standing in a semi circle to the wall…surrounding Malfoy and another Slytherin boy that looked strangely familiar.
"Who do you think you are? Still strutting around Slytherin house as if you own it" Nott said, sneering at Malfoy.
"I wasn't even walking…I was reading a book" Malfoy replied coolly.
"Don't come back to Slytherin house…or we'll kill you" Nott said, dangerously.
Malfoy sighed, "Where am I supposed to sleep then? And you know, when Snape hears of this he isn't going to be very happy"
Nott smirked, "I think we should give him a taste of what awaits him if he comes back to Slytherin house.
Harry drew his right hand wand.
I'll might not be on the best friend list with Malfoy but I'll be damned if I let some punk like Nott push people out of there OWN house.
Harry aligned his wand with Nott's chest, they still hadn't noticed him when he had crept closer and into a better position.
Harry was revealed to them when Harry non-verbally fired a stunner straight into Nott's chest.
Nott crumpled, and his little gang of thugs just stood there shocked.
"He didn't even say the spell…that impossible!" exclaimed a particularly ugly Slytherin goon.
"What are you doing Potter" Malfoy hissed, "This doesn't concern you!"
"I know I just wanted the satisfaction of stunning that ugly piece of shit" Harry replied.
The boy next to Malfoy chuckled.
Nott's gang came to their senses and drew their wands, "You ready?" Harry asked Malfoy and his friend.
"Just keep out of my way" Malfoy replied, not looking away from the, now armed, Slytherins.
Harry sighed, "Well, I was going to give you a piece of the action… but since you are so rude I don't think I will".
Malfoy looked at him this time, "You think you can take all these guys on your own?"
Harry raised an eyebrow, "These are just some goons, so of course I can do it on my own".
Harry smirked at Malfoy, and then spun his wand around horizontally at the Slytherin goons.
Gold light followed his wand, tracing across the chests of the Slytherins, as soon as the light touched them they were blown off their feet.
"I've been meaning to try that one out" Harry muttered as he stepped over the prone bodies.
"So what are you going to do now that you have been 'expelled' from Slytherin house?" Harry asked, directing the question at both of them with a flick of his eyes.
"Stay out of this Potter…this is nothing to do with you" Malfoy replied, kicking the still body of Nott.
With that Malfoy stalked away and with a slight hesitation, so did the other Slytherin boy.
Harry smirked as the two boys stalk away into darkness; I think this year just got more interesting.
A/N: Well that was a shorter chapter than usual…but meh.
THIS WILL NOT BE A SLASH, I just though I should clear that up if some of are getting the wrong thoughts about Draco and the other Slytherin.
