Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter J.K Rowling does.

Okay people I had a free day today so I updated this chapter, it was hell to write it as nothing was going right with it. Hope you enjoy it.

Riddle Manor, a large two story house that stood on top of a hill with a beautiful view all round, its interior was of the finest quality and was fit for a king but its inhabitants did not care for that. All windows were shut and covered; the lighting was candles floating about in the air that gave the place a dark foreboding look. In the main living room was a large throne which was covered with what looked like bones and had snake insignia all over it. Sitting on that throne was a man or rather someone who looked partially like a man. His skin was tight against his bones and was extremely pale as if he had no blood, he had no hair at all, he had long spidery fingers that twitched as if to strangle you but what was most inhuman about him was his eyes, it was bright red as if it were filled with blood and when you looked in those eyes you could only see hatred, anger and death.

This man had never known love so he hated it and thought it made you weak, He loved to murder, rape and destroy his enemy's and to him nothing was more pleasurable than hearing the screams of his victims or the gurgling sound they make when he slit their throat. This man was lord Voldemort. He had been sitting on that throne for a few hours now thinking about the enigma called Harry Potter. The boy who defeated him whenever they met, the boy he hated more than any in the world.

"Wormtail" hissed Voldemort. "Summon me Severus".

"Ye...yes my lord." stammered a terrified Wormtail as he left the room hastily.

He did not know why but ever since the beginning of the school holiday he had been feeding Potter images of the department of mysteries hoping that the boy knew about the prophecy because when in the graveyard he sensed something familiar in the boy but did not know what and then a few nights later when he lowered his mental shields and went to rest he could suddenly see the boys memory's so he realized that he could use it to his advantage but a few days ago there was nothing as if the link between him and the boy disappeared.

He at first thought that the boy had learnt occlumency but realized that no one could learn it over night so it could only mean that something was wrong with the boy. He knew that the blood wards served no protection for the boy as he had used his blood but could not understand how Dumbledore did not realize that. He at first wanted to go and kill him but decided to wait and see what Dumbledore was up to incase it was a trap and now the boy was gone according to Severus, they had taken him to a safe house after he took on two dementors. That also stumped him, how can a mere boy of 14 be able to do a patronus and from what his sources say the boy had been able to do it from third year. It was impressive yet when they faced in the graveyard he could only detect a low power level in the boy. It was starting to give him a headache. Soon after Snape entered the room and knelt at his feet on the cold stone floor.

Voldemort surveyed him for a while before speaking "hello Severus, how good of you to join me. Tell me what news do you have for me about the old fool and his gang of misfits."

"As you know my lord the Potter brat will be transported to the safe house and will not be allowed to leave, while Dumbledore still has a few members guarding the prophecy." replied Snape.

Voldemort got up and went and stood by the fire towards a large giant snake that was asleep there "is that all Severus, do you waste my time with that nonsense, should I feed you to Nagini." hissed Voldemort angrily as he slowly ran his fingers down the length of the snake

"No my lord, there is something else, something very odd." Snape quietly said with a quizzical look on his face.

"We'll tell me what is this odd request of Dumbledore." hissed Voldemort,

"He wants whoever is staying at the house to watch over the boy, they are to tell him of his every move as well as every spell he casts and how powerful it is." Snape quickly said so as not to anger his master.

Voldemort mulled over this 'I wonder what is the old fool playing at, he has not trained the boy in any way and yet he wants to know how powerful he is. What is he up to?' "Crucio." Snape withered on the ground as his body felt as if it was being stabbed continuously by sharp knives. After about a minute Voldemort stopped the curse but Snape's body still rocked with spasms "Next time bring me useful information. Now leave and send in Lucius and Nott." hissed Voldemort with his backed turned to him. Snape woke up and stumbled out of the room quickly as he still felt the after effects of the spell. Soon after he left Lucius and Nott entered the room and knelt, they were both trembling with fear as they expected their master to curse them. "I want you two to take a a group to No. 4 Privet Drive, that is where the Potter brat's family lives. I want you to kill them painfully and slowly. Then we shall plan to release my true followers from Azkaban." Voldemort quietly said as he stared in the fire.

"My lord wont the blood wards protect them." Lucius said

"You fool; you know I used his blood in the ritual so it does not work anymore. Now leave and never question me again." screamed Voldemort as his followers scrambled from the eager to be away from him and away from his wand. Voldemort then slowly walked and sat on his throne and began pondering about the enigma that was Harry Potter.

Heaven, that is what it felt like. He couldn't believe it Hermione Granger was kissing him but why how come this never happened in his past life. 'Oh shut up and just enjoy it you stupid fool' said an annoying voice in his head so he did. He wrapped his arms around her and pulled her in a deeper kiss, she moaned out loud as she opened her mouth and pushed her tongue in his mouth, their tongues battled each other as they explored each other's mouths. They slowly withdrew from each other and just stared at each other in wonder before Hermione said quietly "I've always loved you too." Harry just stared at her stunned before they were interrupted.

"Bloody hell." screamed an angry Ron

That brought them back to earth as it just destroyed the moment. "What now Ron." said Hermione in a rather cold voice that should have sent a normal man running for the hills but obviously Ron did not have the mental power of the normal man so he did not run but instead just stared at Hermione as if she had gone mad.

"What are doing, you not supposed to be with him you belong to me." Ron screamed, his ears and face an alarming shade of red. 'SMACK', Ron staggered back as Hermione smacked him with all her might and left a five finger mark on his face.

"What do you mean I belong to you? Am I a toy that you can just own huh. Answer me you prick." Hermione spoke in a cold voice laced with anger and hatred; her hands were clenched in a fist so as to stop it from trembling. Harry calmly watched this interaction between the two still stunned at what Hermione said, he had put up a silencing charm around the room as being in a pureblood house any one could do magic. Ron never being so humiliated and embarrassed in his life reached for his wand but before he could even layer a finger on it.

Hermione raised her hands as if to protect her and just screamed the first spell that came to mind "Nocturna Suppressio."; a white light flew out of her hand and hit Ron on the chest. At first nothing happened and Ron just grinned at her and took out his wand but then they saw him start to shiver and shake and then he eventually collapsed on the floor and started scratching something invisible on his body.

"Ahhhh help me the spiders they everywhere, help me get them of me." screamed a terrified Ron as he tried to remove the invisible spiders. Harry and Hermione watched in morbid fascination as he rolled on the ground screaming for help.

"Stupefy." Harry muttered and wondered how on earth Hermione knew that spell 'that is a dark arts spell how on earth does she know it'. He looked down at Ron and saw that he was bleeding from scratching himself so he healed him.

"What are you doing." whispered Hermione. Harry looked up at her and saw that she was trembling with fear at what she had done but also with a hint of excitement as if she enjoyed it. 'Oh my god how on earth did I know that spell it just popped up in my head' she wondered but then realization struck her like a bludger 'I remember death said I would gain all of Harry's knowledge, I must have used one of the dark arts spells'.

"I'm healing him, he scratched himself pretty badly. That is the Nightmare spell, it forces the person to relive their worst nightmare. I stunned him because prolonged exposure to the spell could have caused him to have a heart attack and die. Still he won't remember a thing; his sub conscious will wipe his memory of it to protect the body from reliving it. Tell me where did you learn that spell." Harry replied as he finished healing Ron.

"Um I don't know, I think I learnt it from you. When I woke up in this timeline Death said I would gain all your knowledge so I must have subconsciously used It." she replied

Harry stared at her curiously before shrugging and enervating Ron. He woke up in a daze and gave them both a dark look before storming out of the room. Both Harry and Hermione sat on the bed and avoided each other before Harry asked "Hermione why did you jump through the veil?"

She turned and faced him and stared into those captivating eyes of his and replied quietly "you see Harry I had to follow you, after you said that you still love me I couldn't bare to be without you so I jumped in after you." A stunned silence followed a look of pure shock on his face as he took in what she just said.

"You see Harry after you said those things about Dumbledore I thought about him being so close to the Weasley's and I think that they are in with him. Back in our past life I remember that I fell in love with you from when we were in our third year but then in the summer in our fifth year which is this one I suddenly started having feelings for Ron and lost interest in you. I think that they fed me love potions." Hermione continued with tears in her eyes. Harry just pulled her in his arms and comforted her.

"Hermione I also think they fed me potions because I don't think I would ever have developed feelings for Ginny, I mean she looks like my mother." Harry replied chuckling weakly

"That's disgusting Harry." Hermione replied although she also smiled a little. They held each other for a while before Hermione asked "Harry what did you do when you left England, please tell me."

"Hmm I mostly traveled a lot, going to places were there had a magical community and just learning about how they use their magic. I studied all types of magic and had a collection of rare books dating back centuries. I learnt wand less magic from the natives of Australia and just about everything you can learn about magic from all corners of the world. Eventually I found Grindelwald's diary and you know what happened next. What about you, I didn't really get any news from England." replied Harry with glazed eyes remembering his travels.

"Me, I led a boring life from the moment you left I knew that it was a big mistake in letting you go but then not long after I got married and that ended disastrously. After that I became an unspeakable and worked on spell making and eventually we both took a dive into the veil. Every day I regretted what I did to you but now I am pleased that I came with you because I am never letting you go" Hermione said with a smile on her face as she cuddled up to Harry.

"Who do you trust from the Order Hermione?" Harry asked her while playing with her hair

"I don't know, I don't trust any of the Weasley's as any one of them could be in the plot against us, I don't understand Tonks at first when she I arrived she was very excited to meet you and was the same as last time but after a while she started talking bad about you and agreeing with Molly a lot and she did not use her metamorphous powers as often as usual as if it was a big problem to use it. Also obviously I don't trust Dumbledore but other than them I don't know. I never got to know the rest so I don't know where their loyalties lie. What about you?"

"I never really trusted any of them and now they have given me a reason to not trust them at all. Yes that is rather odd of Tonks because I could scenes her when I was at my relatives place, on the day the dementors attacked she was and she did not do anything, do you think she is under some spell. Then there is Snape, I don't know what to think about him because although he treated us like crap in school he did give his life so that we could kill Voldemort and I think the only reason he always treats us bad is because Dumbledore told him so."

Hermione mulled this over and realized that he was right but chose to reserve her judgment on Snape for later also she realized that indeed Tonks cold be under a spell and promised to check her up at dinner.

After a while they both left the room because it was close to dinner time, as they reached the stairs they saw the order members milling downstairs before a few of them left and the rest went into the kitchen, Snape just stood there and gave Harry a curious look before sneering at him and surprisingly walked into the kitchen. Molly came over and told them that dinner was ready and that they should go into the kitchen to eat. Both Harry and Hermione noticed the dark look she gave them as she spoke. As they entered Harry was engulfed in a hug by Sirius.

"Harry! It's so good to see you again pup. Come on in let's eat." Sirius exclaimed dragging him towards the table in a one armed hug.

Once seated Harry and Hermione noticed that Molly, Ginny and Ron giving them the evil eye. As Harry sat down he surveyed the room, he saw that it was not much different than before, it was still dark and dreary looking. He looked at the Order members there and saw all the Weasleys there except Percy and Charlie, Remus was sitting next to Tonks and was busy chatting with her, Sirius was busy talking with Dung about some illegal items and then there was Snape he was staring straight at Harry, when their eyes met Harry felt his legimency and immediately put up his weak shields chastising himself for not building them up, Snape immediately retreated and gave him an astonished look before turning back to his meal. As Molly served them Harry and Hermione both discreetly did a scan on their food and drink for any potions and found that it did indeed contain three different types of potion. They both gave each other a look indicating that they both found potions in their food. Harry sat there playing with his food came up with a brilliant idea "professor Snape is there any spell one can use to see of your food has been poisoned because now that the war is on wouldn't it be easy for your enemy to poison so you see I want to be prepared." Harry calmly asked looking at Snape with an unreadable expression on his face.

Snape looked at him with shock as he had never expected Harry to speak to him, he then noticed that Molly had stiffened and was pale when Harry mentioned it so he realized that Harry must have suspected something. "Yes there is one in fact, the incantation is Invenire." Snape sneered curious as to what the Potter boy was up to.

Harry then took out his wand and cast the spell on his food which resulted in three spirals of smoke escaping and exclaimed loudly "Wow it worked and it looks like my food does have some poison in it then."

Hermione playing her part done the same spell to her food and it had the same results as Harry's "Mine too has some poison. Professor Snape, can you tell us what these substances are."

Snape knew then that it was a move worthy of a Slytherin; these two had found out about Molly's plan and destroyed it before it even started. He glared at her and replied "Well the first one is a love potion linking you to Ronald Weasley and Potter to Ginerva Weasley; the second is a potion that would cause both you and Potter to begin hating each other and the last is a power blocking potion which would lower your power levels." He then sat back to view the fun as the room exploded.

Sirius exploded from his seat and screamed at Molly "what the fuck did you do, how dare you try this shit in my home and on my godson you bitch." Molly just sat there red in the face blustering trying to form some coherent words before finally saying "Dumbledore". "Get out of my house, take your whole family of red head pricks and fuck off." Then as if some sort of invisible hook pulled each of the Weasleys and they all were flung out of the house with their belongings not far behind them.

"What the hell just happened?" said Harry to a stunned room. "I think the wards of the house detected that the owner of the house didn't want the Weasleys here so it kicked them out." Replied Hermione.

The rest of the Order eventually got over the shock and left rather quickly leaving Harry, Hermione, Sirius, Tonks Lupin alone. Before Snape left He looked at Harry and said "well Potter if we were at Hogwarts I would have awarded you house points for being such a Slytherin."

"Perhaps we should talk some time soon professor. I have some rather interesting information for you." Harry said staring into Snape's eyes and felt him try to enter his mind again and blocked it out. Snape just looked at him with a raised eyebrow, nodded and left with his robes billowing.

Harry then looked at Tonks and saw that she did look rather dreary and sad with bags under her eyes and looked as if it took a lot of power to just stay awake. He looked her in the eye when she looked up at him and did a quick legimency sweep of her mind. In there he found that Dumbledore had her under some dark spell to keep her under his complete control so he quickly stunned her and put under a sleeping spell.

Still sitting at the table a shocked Sirius and Remus looked at Harry before Sirius asked "how did you know what Molly was up to, why did she say Dumbledore's name, why on earth were you nice to Snape and why the hell did you stun Tonks.?"

Harry sighed looked at Hermione and just said "well Sirius I guess I should start from the beginning."

Okay people I originally thought I would write this story as a one shot but then realized that I could make it into a story. So I have the beginning done and know how it will end, it's just the body that needs to be done so I might update at any time whenever inspiration strikes as nothing has been set in stone about what is going to happen in the story. So give me your ideas and I might put it in the story.
