Chapter 7
(Harry's POV)
Harry's eyes narrowed as he stared into his eight year long rival's face. How could Draco Malfoy have the nerve to face Harry after so much that had happened between them?
He raised his eyebrows at Malfoy inquiringly, "So?"
"Look Potter. I know we have and probably always will be bitter towards each other but I wanted you to know that I'm…I'm sorry. If I ever did anything to offend or hurt you I apologise. I'm not asking for us to be bosom buddies but I do want to put the past behind us and well….grow up."
Harry sneered at him. Draco was telling him to grow up? And all he did was say sorry after everything!
Harry growled. He was not going to accept his petty apologies for every foul thing he and his family had done.
The horcrux's small remains started to grow inside him. A dark feeling enveloped him of rage and hatred towards the young blond man in front of him.
He wanted to make Malfoy pay. He wanted to torture him until he was begging for death. Only then would he give him that mercy. Harry had no idea what was holding this powerful desire over him. It seemed forced and yet somehow it wasn't his own choice.
Then a voice inside his head spoke, "He deserves it Harry. You know the spell. He was nothing more than a two faced coward."
Harry tried to get whoever was inside his head out. No he did not want to do anything like this to Malfoy. He had only wanted to verbally torture him (like that's even possible with a Malfoy) not actually severely harm him.
"Get the bloody hell out of my…"
A carbon copy of him came yet he was more handsome. There were no scars on his face which was illuminated in the dark. His hair messier and he wore no glasses. The other Harry smirked down at him and patronizingly said, "Now, now Harry. It is only fair if you take turns isn't it?"
Harry was confused? Turns? He hadn't been aware of any turn taking?
"Take turns?" harry asked out of curiosity.
The other harry let out a high cold laugh as he surveyed harry with amusement.
"Any one would think you wouldn't recognize your other half."
Harry was stunned. His other half? He remembered Sirius had said that humans had both light and dark inside them. This was probably what he meant. However harry frowned remembering Sirius also saying that they could choose either light or dark. Didn't that mean he had already chosen his side? Wasn't he already light?
"Let me explain seeing as you're confused. Please close your mouth. It is hanging in a rather rude manner. Quite unappealing to be honest. People would think you haven't been taught manners before."
"Well you're one to talk. Clearly invading people's personal space isn't rude to you is it? "
The other one chuckled. "Invading? I don't know what you are talking about brother. This is my space too. However you have been quite a miser. Not sharing. Tut tut tut. "
"What are you talking about? I've never met you!"
"Oh yes you have. A handful of times in fact. Let's see. There was the time where you wanted to play a nasty revenge on Dudley which I carried out at the end because you were to chicken. Then there was the time where you talked to the snake after I egged you on a bit. Then at school where I pushed Granger into the loos head first. She wouldn't talk to you for a week. It was hilarious seeing you so confused. Also then when you collapsed on the pitch I decided to wake you and go for a stroll and led you to the empty dungeons. No wonder you aren't so tense when using dark magic Harry seeing as you have used it. Tsk Tsk. You thought only Ginny Weasley was the one who attacked the mud-bloods. You did too. After that for a while you didn't let me inside of you until your fifth year when with some help with the dark lord I got into you. Don't you remember, Harry how angry you were when Sirius died? Nearly got you using an unforgivable curse. Now I have the time if you don't mind shuffling aside for a few days."
Harry was beyond shocked. How was all of what he said even possible? He couldn't remember any of those things. This was just a nightmare. He'd been getting a lot of those after the war so any moment now he would wake up. He pinched himself.
The other him tilted his head observing harry with a cocky smile which eerily reminded harry of Tom Riddle.
"You think this is all a dream don't you?"
"What else would it be? Seeing as I would never do something like this to Hermione or any other person for that matter?"
Tom….Harry yawned bored and said, "This conversation is getting rather tedious. Let me tell you something that will liven this talk up a bit. Harry you have been bitten."
Harry started to laugh. Of all the things his copy had said this was the most idiotic one so far. Him bitten?
"You can't fool me. I know when a person has been bitten before. My friend had been and he changed at the full moon. I have never changed. So there. Try wangle out of that one."
"It would be easier to show you instead." His clone sighed and clicked.
Suddenly they both landed in a cozy living room with armchairs, a bookshelf and a roaring fire lit under the mantel piece. On the mantle were photographs of him as a baby with his mum and dad. Even Sirius and Remus were in a few of them. The sight made him smile but then he remembered why they were watching this in the first place.
"Well?"
"Just wait."
A young man was sitting on one of the armchairs sipping tea and reading the newspaper with a grim expression on his face.
"Remus what's he doing here?"
"It's a memory golden boy just keep watching."
A toddler with messy black hair came running in sobbing and clutching his shoulder.
"Uncle Remmy…..Un…Uncle it h...hurts."
Remus let go of the newspaper eyes growing wide as he stared at the toddler's shoulder.
"Harry what happened. How did you get hurt?" Remus asked concerned cleaning up the flow of blood.
"A…a b…big bwack….dog c...came an' b...bit me. Ova h...here on my sh…shoulder." harry sobbed. Then with another burst of tears he said, "It was Uncle Siri…..he…he bi…bit me. He bwoke his word. He pro…promised."
Remus was startled. He knew it wasn't Sirius but wondered who it was.
"Harry did anything else happen? Did the mean dog say anything?" Remus had an uneasy idea at who it could be but prayed it wasn't.
"He said he would k…kill Mummy an' daddy if I..ran away. Uncle mooey I didn't wan' him to k…kill mummy or daddy so I...I stayed an' he b…bit me." Harry started crying and Remus couldn't stop him.
In the end Harry managed to go to sleep and Remus got a good look at his shoulder. Yes there was the signature bite from Fenrir greyback. He could have slapped himself. Why was he so foolish? He should never have left Harry alone."
"Guys I'm home."
Remus's heart sank. What was he going to tell Lily and James?
Harry was confused, "How come we can hear Remus's thoughts even though this is clearly supposed to be my memory?"
"Now why would I tell you that?"
"Because…because it's my memory."
"Stop acting like a child Potter and watch."
"Hey Remus why you looking so down. Was Harry just as badl…. WHAT HAPPENED TO HARRY?"
"Lily I'm sorry, it's all my fault. I wasn't watching Harry closely during the afternoon and I accidently fell asleep. I was reading the newspaper when harry came in and said…"
"You'd better carry on Lupin!"
"He's been bitten." Remus said looking highly guilty.
"HE WHAT? Oh my baby…..why weren't you watching him?" Lily asked her eyes steely.
"Lily do you expect me to watch a child 24/7. It's impossible!"
"Sorry Remus. I'm just stressed. W...Will Harry be just like…..just like..."
"Me? Yes Lily I'm afraid so."
"Hey Remus it's nothing to be ashamed of. You are a wonderful, kind, caring person so if Harry is to be like you it's not a bad thing. To us he will always be our charming little boy with the best teacher."
"Teacher?"
"You will have to teach him about werewolves Remus."
Then he saw the memory end.
"What happened?"
"Well we have wasted enough time on this. Time to get moving. Malfoy will be wondering why I look like such a jerk not that you aren't one."
Harry was about to reply to this but shut up. He wanted to see what he was talking about. He still had no idea why he was feeling like this.
"Now Harry say hello to my world. This is where you had me imprisoned for, like, forever. Now feel the taste of your own medicine!"
Harry saw the other him smile before he blacked out.
(Dark Harry)
At last. Harry took a deep breath. HIs first breath since ages. It was so bright outside after living in the darkness of the horcurx.
"P…Potter are you y...you OK?"
Ah yes. There was still Malfoy to deal with. And then he could commence if Harry didn't bother him.
"YOU FILTHY COWARDLY SCUM. HOW CAN YOU HAVE THE GALL TO COME TO ME WITH PETTY APOLOGISIES AFTER ALL YOU'VE DONE. IF I WAS YOU I WOULD HAVE FLED THE COUNTRY BUT SEEING AS YOU DON'T HAVE THE BRAIN CAPACITY TO DO EVEN THAT THEN I SHALL GIVE YOU THE THREE COURSE DINNER YOU CAME HERE FOR."
"I….I…..I…." Draco stuttered eyes growing wide as he kept his hands on his wand.
"Let Draco Malfoy be the first victim to acknowledge Harry…I really have to make a better name than that. Ok for now it'll have to work. Harry Potter the new dark lord."
"Dark...d...dark l...Lord?
"Yes now, Crucio."
So what do you think? Some reviews would be nice to see your thoughts on this.
I really wanted a dark Harry in this. It is a bit confusing. I'll explain the theory behind it in the next chapter. So do you like my werewolf dilemma? I felt something was missing when I wrote it. Don't you feel sorry for Malfoy? I mean he was gonna be sorry for everything and turn over a new leaf.
By the way I'm only in year ten as I write this story so plz don't be too hard on me.
Luv Miss Bella xxx
