Zack sighed as she pulled out her pipe and lighter from the front pocket of her button down shirt. Stretching before she put the pipe in her lips and ignited the lighter. Bring the fire to the pipe she took four deep puffs, held them and then let them out slowly from the confides of her hot moist mouth. She smiled as the smoke rose up to the top of the carriage there to stay.
"Luv?"
Zack giggled a little before she turned her eyes to look at her lover. Smiling she nodded her head at him to continue. She fell into his lap he face down taking in his scent. It reminded her of the roses that grew at Riddler castle.
"What is wrong with you?" Draco asked as he placed a hand on her head and pets it while she struggled with an answer.
Zack looked over at the other three occupants with them. She looked over each and laughed a bit then answered him.
"Ever been to America luv?" The shake from her lover's head gave her permission to continue with the explanation of her state of mind. "Let's start as to why I'm like this." A sigh, "I am a great Seer for someone my age. There are times when one has to feel release from that to keep themselves sane. I keep myself sane by doing it the muggle way. So I can escape them when I chose to not want to see it. Usually I get really high until after like four bags. But it also heightens my powers, downside to the effect."
Roseael watched the woman across from her. She knew what the woman was capable of but didn't see the real reasons to anything she ever told her. Zack would goof off to keep her from the subject she hated that the most. Then the times she would cough up some information it would be in fragments and scattered information that she tried to piece together. It never worked even with the help of the other two in the carriage. There was also the time when Roseael had run into the knight in the library reading books about divination by vampires and the meanings of the mind in demon and vampire terms. There were also some muggle books on psychology on the table about insane minds and the drugs to relax them.
"Roseael get your mind out of thoughts that needn't be your concern."
Roseael was startled by the voice she gasped and looked up wide eye at Zack.
"I am fully capable of taking care of myself and you don't need to know everything. Only time will tell you the truth." Zack sighed as she took another hit and blew it into the ceiling smiling at the world in front of her.
~*~*~*~*~*~
Harry only stared out the window trying to keep his mind off Severus. The vampire prince would be coming in a week to the castle because Dumbledore needed him there for the week. Harry hated the old man even more for making his lover stay. He wanted rip out the old man's heart and suck out the blood slowly making him watch while he died slowly at Harry's feet.
Lucian chuckled as the unprotected thoughts rained on everyone one in the carriage except for the humans.
Harry turned to glare at the vampire king. "And what is so amusing to you your highness that you must do that." Harry growled a little bit more than intended.
Lucian only smiled as he leaned back in his seat. "Well, aren't we a bit uptight? But I will answer your question. I'm laughing because you need to protect your thoughts better. Or others as strong as us will be able to hear them without being able to stop it." He smiled as he turned to face the young vampire.
Adom and Ivana chuckled at this as well and notices that Harry had a shocked face that started to turn red.
"Harry, dear, he is right." Ivana said as she put a hand on his. "Severus probably hadn't anytime to teach you to protect yourself from this kind of thing but we can. And so can any of the other vampires in the castle. They like you enough to help out." Her smile showed the pearl white fangs that hid in her mouth.
Harry sighed as he leaned back remembering the castle that kept him safe over the summer. All the servants had taken a liking to him on first sight and he knew the entire knight by first name and their rank. It was good to know that a castle as a whole looked at him as a friend more than an idol or an icon that can be used for their own personal needs.
Hermione sitting next to him smiled. "I am sure that things will be all right. But why do you need to protect your thoughts. You're not a vampire."
Harry started at the statement and saw that Adom was about to make a statement when Ron interrupted him.
"Fuck that! Where the hell is ferret face? He should be here if he is the father to that child inside of you Har. I'll kick his arse when we get to the bloody castle."
Ron's voice was most unwelcome and the dirty looks he got from the three royals weren't something to be proud of.
"Watch your tongue boy. My young cousin and heir is in the next carriage taking care of a knight who seems to off her rocker. He too is a knight and has responsibilities that are higher than a loved one." Lucian said with a knife like voice that made Ron shiver and lean back but not stop his mouth.
"What kind of shit is that? A loved one should come first before some drunk vampire."
Harry groaned as the voice of his ex-best friend grew louder.
"It doesn't make sense to you since you are not a vampire." Lucian said softly keeping his cool a lot better than the human boy. "But one's Clan must come before anything else." This was a total bullshit that Lucian made to keep the two humans from finding out that Harry wasn't human anymore and it has to be working till the carriage stopped.
"Ah, here we are." Adom said as the door opened. They step out, Harry being helped by Lucian. Hermione and Ron gasped at the castle. It was twice as big as Hogwarts and twice as wide to cover over one hundred acres.
"Master Harry!"
A servant yelled as he and a couple of others ran down to greet the pregnant teen.
Harry smiled at the vampires as they each hugged him. "Hey guys. I missed you all so much. Hogwarts is such a bore and I want to learn beyond on what I already know." Harry said as the servants guide them in.
"Master Harry, you should stay here then. It was so much fun when you and Shiro would pull jokes on the head Courtan." A vampire servant his height with blue hair and sapphire eyes said.
"Shh, Lukel, the masters are there and you knew that the Courtan has ears in the walls." Another said with white hair and grey eyes.
Harry laughed but stopped his ascend up the stairs. "Where are my aunt and the others?"
Right on cue they had burst through their carriage door falling to the floor in a heap of a pile, with smoke coming out of it. Adom sighed as each one laughed out loud saying intangible things. He ordered the servants to pick them up and take them to their rooms.
"Lukel, take young Harry to his room. He is tired and needs his rest. I will call on the doctors in a minute."
Ivana sighed as she looks at the two humans standing there. "Follow me before you become a meal as well." She chuckled as she smelled the scent of fear on them.
Harry shook his head as he followed Lukel into the castle he called home.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Dar looked around and sighed as he looked down at the blonde next to him. Making love to him was good and he needed to feel alive once more to show that he wasn't dead and stuck in a ball for all of eternity. He knew the other vampire couldn't remember him but he could care less.
/I love to know how it would be to make love to my brother and his lover. Trapped with my powers and my need for their bodies/ he thought as he stroked the blonder hair.
"Lucius, wakey, wakey. I need more fun and love-in." He said seductively.
The door burst open to show an annoyed Voldemort. "Not now. We have a problem."
Darres looked up to glare at the deformed man that stalked up to his bed. "And what would that be my friend. I don't have time for you and your fucking bitching!" the growl came from the back of his throat.
Voldemort was unfazed by the reactions of the vampire on the bed. "Potter has been removed from Hogwarts and has been moved to where we do not know. Now, how are you going to keep up with your bargain?"
Darres growled at the old man but saw that there was an obstacle in his way. He leaned back. Voldemort moved slowly to his side looking down at his nude lithe form with contempt.
Dar wanted to do something at the moment right now so he could think later but what he didn't know at the moment. Then he thought of something that might help him.
"Tom?
Voldemort growled at the name that was his muggle father's. "What Dragoon?"
Darres smiled at the name that was given to him as a second name. "Do you want your old body back?" he smirked as scarlet eyes grew wide with wonderment and surprise.
Dar laughed out loud waking the vampire next to him as he pulled Voldemort down on the bed.
"I can make you beautiful again and then we can go on from there."
Dar laughed again as he traced the scaly white face that paled even more at the eyes that were whiter than snow.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Ah, shit!" Ron said as he paced the room he and Hermione was lead to.
"I can believe that we were put in here just to stay out of their way." He huffed falling into an armchair.
Hermione rolled her eyes as she looked at the books that hugged the walls. There were three shelves that went from ceiling to floor with books. Her brown eyes roamed each shelf with wonderment and want, wanting to read each and every book that covered those walls.
Ron got up and paced some more only to run into Hermione.
"'Mione, what the hell? What the bloody hell are you looking at?"
Hermione gave him a glare. "Ron, why the bloody hell are you here? I thought you didn't like Harry any more?" she said glaring daggers into his head.
Ron sighed and stared back at the girl he wanted to date but could for he feared for his life. "I do like him. It's just that... well... you know how I feel about Malfoy and Yakumori. I can't stand to think that they might be his new best friends; in Malfoy's case his husband. We're not going to be in the picture anymore. And on top of all that you're dating Yakumori. That lez is looking for nothing but a sucking post."
That hit the nerve more than once. Hermione's face turned to an ugly one as she glared at Ron with more hate than he could ever dream of getting from the one he loved.
"Well, excuse me for being a sucking post as that seems that's all you think of me." And with that she marched out of the room and slammed the door behind her hard enough that one book fell to the floor.
Hermione marched down the hall trying not to cry and looking for anyone that seemed helpful to her. She ended up in a garden that was beyond peaceful and had fresh roses everywhere of all different colors. She walked in and looked at all the colored roses seeing a tree in the middle of the rose bushes. Hermione sat under it and brought her knees up thinking on her relationship with the vampire princess.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Harry sighed in his and Severus' room as the doctors looked him over and said he was fine and would need to stay till the babies were born. He was more than happy to oblige.
Ivana watched as Harry's face fell a bit. She dismissed the doctors so she could talk to him. When the click of the door sounded the queen sat on the bed next to her son's lover.
"What is it Beauty? Do you want Severus here that bad?" she smiled once she got her nod. "I see, well, I can't do anything till the end of the week and you have enough people to help you keep your mind off Sev till he gets here."
Harry nodded his head before he asked his question. "What was up with Zack today?"
Ivana sighed as she laid on the bed next to him pulling him into her arms for comfort. "I am glad you worry about your Knight but she seems to have fallen back onto a habit that helps but puts her at a disadvantage at the same time." She pets his head while she talked. "You see, when her Seer powers are either too weak she takes a potion to heighten her powers to make them come faster. But since she is just as stubborn as Sev she has gone back to her old ways. And those are getting high."
"Thought so."
"Quick one ain't you." Ivana smiled as a sigh escaped her lips. "She gets weed from a dealer in Miami, Florida who gets it from someone in Colombia. He sends it to her whenever she wants it. She stopped taking it for ten years but I guess now she isn't getting any answers so now she wants to drown herself in drugs again. Now, weed doesn't do anything bad to us, it's just that she is a weird girl when she's high. It's funny but dangerous if she takes a job. She could kill everyone in sight if she's high." Ivana laughed a bit and then sighed, "But there's always a reason for such things like these."
Harry watched his Queen with worry. "What are her reasons for getting high? Escaping reality?"
Ivana smiled at the thought but sighed. "No, if that was the only reason she would do it everyday of her fucking life but it ain't. And if she did then she would have to get through at least four bags to do so. " She turned to look him in the eyes. "You see Harry, Zack's a Seer."
Harry waited for the explanation that would give him answers to the condition of his friend that seemed to not only avoiding him but herself as well.
"Zack, not only can heal the body and soul with her fangs but she can also see the future that has yet to be told. But she's not like every other Seer in this world." A sigh escaped her lips once more. "You see, a regular Seer would have their powers heighten by the drugs. This is because you need to have a sense of calm and steady mind that comes naturally to a Seer. That's why most of them are cold and distant to others. They are scared of the future they see.
"But Zack's the total opposite of that. Bad tempered and no control what so ever on her feelings. This also makes her confused with her emotions as they tend to change drastically. So, her love for Draco will become a danger to them both soon as she tends to think her duties come first and nothing else."
Harry looked away thinking about his friends that seemed to only get hurt just because they live to please a God that doesn't appreciate them for living in the first place. Harry read of the God that rules over the vampires, it was the same god that ruled over the humans but many of the vampires lose faith in it as time goes by. They live forever and vampires see it as a useless thing to cherish as they continue to live on and on as humans come and go with death.
"What are you thinking child?"
Harry's head snapped up to look at the older vampire woman. "Nothing too important. Uhh... could you continue? Why doesn't it do the same for Zack if that was the point you were trying to make?"
Ivana smiled as she saw the worry in the emeralds with the black lining around them.
"Well, that wasn't the point because Zack is too strong for her own good. The only reason that we can think of is that she's of two Clans, the Riddlers and the Snipers. The Riddlers are a bit less emotional than we are but we don't show it that often only to our friends and families. The Riddlers are colder than us but they take pride in their loyalty to the royal family. So, Zack has both personalities in her trying to dominate the other but it's harder than it looks-especially with her healing powers.
"Her mother was from the Riddlers. She was a strong woman who fell in love with one of my personal guards. Once her family found out they killed her saying that the child was a damnation to the Clan. They don't like us very much but hey, what can yeah do about it. Zack grew up learning to kill and she became a hunter when she was eighteen. She was one of the best but in the end she found out that she was a vampire and wanted to kill her father for not telling her about it." A deep sigh escaped Ivana's lips as she leaned back on the bed to get a better position to work the kinks out of it. "Her father is still alive and he is still part of my guard but they hardly talk to each other. It's another reason it's so hard for her to coup with her emotions and powers."
Harry sighed once and leaned back on his pillows as Ivana released him with thoughts going through his head. /Why can't anyone tell her it's alright to love someone and work at the same time? She'll kill herself with the emotional stress and the unneeded sights of the future/
Ivana spoke once more. "She drowns herself in weed to only escape the reality of the future. She hates her powers and wished she had died with her mother. She has cut herself many times but as a vampire she heals quickly. It's so much trouble but then again she is captain of the Sniper Knights and the top assassin we have."
"Why do we hurt ourselves just to feel such pain?"
Ivana looked up at the unexpected question that she felt lost at the words that were spoken. She's asked herself something similar to the question her son's lover just asked. The pain that keeps people going is because it's what they feel. And feeling is a sign that you are alive. Being alive as a vampire is difficult to achieve without a mate. Harry was lucky to have a mate right then and there and to be granted with children. But others like Zack, and at one point in time like her, had to deal with life as it passed by with out any feeling of reality.
"I can't answer that for you Harry. Why not ask the god who put us here when he doesn't even give a damn." Ivana said as she had lost all sight of religion.
"I don't think he'll listen." Harry spoke softly as he stared at the canopy that hung over them. The black color reminded him of Severus' eyes when they were making love.
"Neither do I but there is always time to meet him. If we die we can see him. That's a goal I will see to when I am no longer needed. This is a reality for me." She smiled as she sat up and hopped off the bed. Straitening out her dress she moved to the door.
"Harry, keep the reality that you see it as. Cause if you lose it then everything will be lost and you will fall with you lover."
She left and Harry could only stare at the door. Ivana had a point and he wanted to keep the reality that was his to make but to do that he has to live it first. Severus was a part of it and he was a part of Severus' and he loved the idea of combining the two together and to do that they need to be together.
Harry sighed as he wished that the end of the week would come soon then later.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Darres smiled as he looked down at the man that once looked as a snake. He had given the mortal a beauty that wasn't real. It was just an illusion but it kept the idiot of a wizard off his back for a while.
Too bad it fades after a year or two. Beauty always comes with a price. Not only that but now Voldemort was his servant. He just didn't know it yet.

Zack sighed as she pulled out her pipe and lighter from the front pocket of her button down shirt. Stretching before she put the pipe in her lips and ignited the lighter. Bring the fire to the pipe she took four deep puffs, held them and then let them out slowly from the confides of her hot moist mouth. She smiled as the smoke rose up to the top of the carriage there to stay.

Roseael watched the woman across from her. She knew what the woman was capable of but didn't see the real reasons to anything she ever told her.

Harry's head snapped up to look at the older vampire woman. "Nothing too important. Uhh... could you continue? Why doesn't it do the same for Zack if that was the point you were trying to make?"
Ivana smiled as she saw the worry in the emeralds with the black lining around them.
"Well, that wasn't the point because Zack is too strong for her own good. The only reason that we can think of is that she's of two Clans, the Riddlers and the Snipers. The Riddlers are a bit less emotional than we are but we don't show it that often only to our friends and families. The Riddlers are colder than us but they take pride in their loyalty to the royal family. So, Zack has both personalities in her trying to dominate the other but it's harder than it looks-especially with her healing powers.
"Her mother was from the Riddlers. She was a strong woman who fell in love with one of my personal guards. Once her family found out they killed her saying that the child was a damnation to the Clan. They don't like us very much but hey, what can yeah do about it. Zack grew up learning to kill and she became a hunter when she was eighteen. She was one of the best but in the end she found out that she was a vampire and wanted to kill her father for not telling her about it." A deep sigh escaped Ivana's lips as she leaned back on the bed to get a better position to work the kinks out of it. "Her father is still alive and he is still part of my guard but they hardly talk to each other. It's another reason it's so hard for her to coup with her emotions and powers."
Harry sighed once and leaned back on his pillows as Ivana released him with thoughts going through his head. /Why can't anyone tell her it's alright to love someone and work at the same time? She'll kill herself with the emotional stress and the unneeded sights of the future/
Ivana spoke once more. "She drowns herself in weed to only escape the reality of the future. She hates her powers and wished she had died with her mother. She has cut herself many times but as a vampire she heals quickly. It's so much trouble but then again she is captain of the Sniper Knights and the top assassin we have."
"Why do we hurt ourselves just to feel such pain?"
Ivana looked up at the unexpected question that she felt lost at the words that were spoken. She's asked herself something similar to the question her son's lover just asked. The pain that keeps people going is because it's what they feel. And feeling is a sign that you are alive. Being alive as a vampire is difficult to achieve without a mate. Harry was lucky to have a mate right then and there and to be granted with children. But others like Zack, and at one point in time like her, had to deal with life as it passed by with out any feeling of reality.
"I can't answer that for you Harry. Why not ask the god who put us here when he doesn't even give a damn." Ivana said as she had lost all sight of religion.
"I don't think he'll listen." Harry spoke softly as he stared at the canopy that hung over them. The black color reminded him of Severus' eyes when they were making love.
"Neither do I but there is always time to meet him. If we die we can see him. That's a goal I will see to when I am no longer needed. This is a reality for me." She smiled as she sat up and hopped off the bed. Straitening out her dress she moved to the door.
"Harry, keep the reality that you see it as. Cause if you lose it then everything will be lost and you will fall with you lover."
She left and Harry could only stare at the door. Ivana had a point and he wanted to keep the reality that was his to make but to do that he has to live it first. Severus was a part of it and he was a part of Severus' and he loved the idea of combining the two together and to do that they need to be together.
Harry sighed as he wished that the end of the week would come soon then later.

Darres smiled as he looked down at the man that once looked as a snake. He had given the mortal a beauty that wasn't real. It was just an illusion but it kept the idiot of a wizard off his back for a while.
Too bad it fades after a year or two. Beauty always comes with a price. Not only that but now Voldemort was his servant. He just didn't know it yet.
