Recap – Harry and Seamus tell Ron and Hermione about their relationship. Snape asks them to brew Veritaserum. Professor Trelawney has a prediction andDraco somehow found out about Harry and Seamus, and outed them to the entire school.

Everyone went to bed shortly after Harry. When Ron and Seamus entered their room, Harry was peacefully asleep, which was unusual as Harry was usually the last one to fall asleep and usually tossing and turning.

"Harry isn't restless", said Seamus.

"Enjoy it while it lasts", chuckled Ron.

Tonight was the first night during the school where there appeared to be peace and quiet, which helped everyone fall asleep relatively quickly.

"Hand over the prophecy is, or you will die", screamed Voldemort as he cast the Cruciatus Curse at Harry who was tied up on a chair in the middle of a room full of glowing glass balls.

"What prophecy", yelled Harry?

"Crucio", screamed Voldemort.

"Argh, please stop", yelled Harry.

"If you don't give me the prophecy, I will kill the ones you", whispered Voldemort as he ran his finger over Harry's scar, which caused him a lot of agony.

This is when Ron and Seamus, who were trying to wake Harry up, knew that something was terribly wrong.

"Go and get McGonagall, Seamus", said Ron

A few minutes had past and McGonagall had arrived to find Harry awake covered in sweat and shaking in his bed.

"Potter, can you hear me, are you alright?" said McGonagall.

"You two, pick him up and follow me to Professor Dumbledore's office", said McGonagall.

"In the dream, why was Voldemort torturing you", asked Dumbledore.

"I-I-I", stuttered Harry

"In the dream, where are you", interrupted Dumbledore.

"I-I-I, what the fuck is happening to me", yelled Harry, who had never really lost his temper.

"There is a connection between your mind and the Dark Lord's mind", replied Dumbledore.

"You called", said Snape

"Your timing is impeccable", replied Dumbledore.

"We can't wait, if you-know-who knows about the connection. He'll use it to his advantage, we know what he can do", said Dumbledore

"Is there anything I can do", asked Snape.

"You know what to do", replied Dumbledore

Snape grabbed Harry by the arm and dragged him down to his class-room. Harry was still in shocking and shaking, and was to out of it to fight back and break free. Snape though Harry into the chair by the far corner in back of the class-room.

"It appears there is a connection between the Dark Lord's mind and your own. Whether he is, as yet, aware of this connection is for the moment unclear. Pray he remains ignorant", said Snape.

"What will happen to me if he finds out", asked Snape

"Slowly destroy you. It was the Dark Lords favourite to unhinge your mind, slowly torture with false dreams until finally, you beg him to kill you where stand", replied Snape.

Snape performed Occlumency on Harry and entered Harry's mind.
During the Occlumency, Snape penetrated Harry's deepest thoughts, dreams and fantasies.
Amongst these dreams were Harry and Seamus coming out to each other, and begin dating, Harry and Seamus fucking for the first time at the Burrow, and then again in bathroom, seeing Hermione naked for the time.

"Those thoughts are personal", shouted Harry

"No to the Dark Lord, they're not", replied Snape.

"Please, let me rest, we've doing this four hours", pleaded Harry.

"The Dark Lord doesn't rest", replied Snape.

Harry left the class-room and walkthrough the dungeons, which was cold on his feet as he had no socks on, and he finally made it up to the Gryffindor common room, to find half the Gryffindor house sat in the common. Ron and Seamus noticed Harry and stood up.

"Harry, there you are", said Seamus.

"What's wrong", said Harry.

"Harry, it's Hermione, she was attacked early", replied Ron

"Wait, what, when, where", replied Harry.

"About an hour, Hermione went to the bathroom and was attacked on her way back", said Professor McGonagall.

"Who did it?" asked Harry

"We don't know but we suspect it was one of you-know-who's followers", replied McGonagall.

"How did they get into the castle?" asked Harry

"We're still looking into it, but they would of needed help of someone from inside the castle", replied McGonagall.

"Where is Hermione now", asked Harry.

"The hospital wing, Madam Pomfrey is taking very good care", replied McGonagall.

"Do you think the visions are coming true", asked Harry.

"It appears so Potter", replied McGonagall.

"How are you holding up Ron", asked Seamus.

"A little shuck up", replied Ron.

"We'll go and see her first thing tomorrow morning Ron, but I think we should head to bed", said Seamus.

"Thanks you two, and you're right", replied Ron.

Rom crawled into bed, upset and scared about what happened, he couldn't sleep.
Harry on the other hand, nodded off pretty quickly, and slipped into another nightmare.

"Consider this a threat", whispered Voldemort.

"The next victim may not be so lucky", hissed Voldemort

Harry was stood in Borgin and Burkes during the dream, he was stood in front of a random but mysterious cabinet.

Harry woke up to find Ron looking over from his bed.

"Harry, are you okay?" asked Ron

"Just another nightmare", replied Harry.

"What happened", asked Ron.

"The attack on Hermione wasn't a coincident, Voldemort sent someone to attack her as a threat, and the next victim, maybe not as lucky. I was standing in from of an old cabinet in Borgin and burkes", replied Harry.

"Oh shit, he's really serious about hurting us to get what he wants", said Ron.

"He won't stop till he get what he wants, and we best be prepared when comes", said Harry with such anger.

"Let's get dressed and go down and see Hermione", said Harry

Ron, Harry and Seamus found Hermione to be awake by the time the trio arrived at the infirmary.
Ron and Hermione were so happy to see each other.

"How are you feeling", asked Ron

"Confused and a little sore", replied Hermione.

"I'm glad to see you fine", replied Ron.

"Do you remember who did this to you", asked Harry.

"No, I was attacked by the behind, by the time I realised what happened, the person disappeared", replied Hermione.

"Do you think it has anything to do with Trelawney's prediction and your dream Harry?' asked Hermione.

"I think so", replied Harry.

"I think it's wise for you to go and see Dumbledore Harry", said Hermione.

"I agree, I'll go and see him during my free period before lunch", replied Harry.

"I appreciate you guys visiting me. You'll be late for divination, you better hurry" said Hermione.

Harry, Seamus and Ron were late to divination but knowing Hermione was well and okay was more important than arriving early. The only table that was free was by the window in the top left hand of the class-room. Harry wasn't paying attention and being in the corner of the room, it was easy for Harry to stare out of the window.
The weather had changed today, instead of it snowing heavily like it had done for the past few weeks; there was torrential rain, which made the day feel gloomy and dark but the only person it didn't bother was Harry. Since his nightmare, Harry felt so angry, so helpless, so alone and what bothered him the most, is that he felt he's responsible for Hermione being attacked.
Harry kept trying to figure out who would want to hurt Hermione. Bellatrix? Lucious Malfoy, maybe? Whoever it was must was good, being able to slip in and out of the castle undetected, even Dumbledore couldn't off known this was gonna happen inside the castle.
Spending the majority of the class daydreaming, Ron nudged Harry to get his attention before Trelawney deducts ten points from Gryffindor and gives him detention.
Class had ended shortly after Ron had nudged Harry.

"I'll catch you guys later, I'll go and see Dumbledore", said Harry who was distracted and distant.

Ron and Seamus didn't say anything to Harry but turned around gave him a look of sympathy.

Harry knocked on Dumbledore's door.

"Come in Harry", shouted Dumbledore.

"Take a seat, is there anything troubling you", asked Dumbledore.

"I had a dream after I found out that Hermione had been attacked, I was standing in Borgin and Burke's, I was stood facing an old cabinet. And Voldemort was stood behind me in mirror and whispered in my ear. He said that the attack on Hermione is a threat and his next victim maybe not be as lucky", replied Harry.

"A vanishing cabinet, they were popular amongst the Dark Lord and his followers, used a quick getaway if they were in trouble. I didn't know there was another one in Borgin and Burkes, while the other one is the room of requirements", replied Dumbledore.

"Do you reckon Snape or Malfoy helped whoever attacked Hermione into the castle", asked Harry.

"Snape would be foolish to do it, and I've had a hunch on Malfoy being up to something for a while now", replied Dumbledore

"How does Draco fit into all this", asked Hary.

"As you know, Draco's father is a Death Eater and I've heard that Voldemort is trying to recruit Draco as one as well, it's a tradition, and to show Voldemort that Draco can be trusted. Draco was ordered to repair the vanishing cabinet, but he didn't know what for, he probably did out of fear", replied Dumbledore.

"So what's going to happen to Draco", asked Harry.

"For now, nothing, but I can understand why you'd be mad but we know how they're getting into the castle, so if they attack, we'll be prepared", replied Dumbledore.

"But what happens if someone else gets attacked like Voldemort said in my dream", asked Harry with a deep concern in his voice.

"All we can do for now, is to put a charm on the vanishing cabinet, so, if anyone gets through or attempts to get through, we'll be able to defend those who he seeks to hurt", replied Dumbledore.

"I suggest you go and join your friends in the Great Hall, Hermione has been released out of the hospital wing for the hour", said Dumbledore.

Harry left Dumbledore's office with some questions asked but also left with more questions.

"Harry there you are, I'd thought you'd never join us", said Hermione with such glee.

"What did Dumbledore say", asked Ron.

"He said that whoever attacked Hermione, is a death eater, and used the banishing cabinet to gain access to the castle, and the cabinet was repaired by Draco", replied Harry.

"The low life piece of shit", replied Ron.

"Why would Draco do this", asked Seamus.

"Dumbledore reckons it's because he's scared. His father wants him to become a death eater like him, and Draco went along with it out of fear", replied Draco.

"Do you reckon Draco found out about us through the connection you and the Dark Lord", asked Seamus.

"I think so", replied Harry.

"By finding out about us, he won't hesitate to hurt or kill you to get what he wants from", said Harry.

"What do you reckon we do", asked Hermione.

"We go into the ministry and find the room of mysteries and find what Voldemort seeks, and that might give us the upper hand", replied Harry.

"What happens if we walk into a trap, we could use the order for help", asked Ron.

"Good idea Ron". Replied Hermione.

"I'll send a letter to Sirius and ask for their help", replied Harry.

"Best get back to class, come by the hospital wing later and we'll figure out a plan", said Hermione.

The group spent the rest of the day in class, and by the time everyone met up in the infirmary, Harry received a letter back from the order. Harry joined the group by the fire in the Gryffindor common room and read the letter out loud.

"Dear Harry"

"I talked to the order, and they agree about helping you out once I mentioned the nightmares you've been having. You're friends and espicailly your relationship with Seamus, mean a lot to me and if they're in danger, that exposes not you only, but the rest of us. Once we've figured out a plan, we'll head to the ministry and help you out to find what you-know-seeks. This won't be easy and will be extremely dangerous, and someone may get killed. Think wisely. Keep your friend close and your enemies even closer.

P.s, Congratulations on your relationship with Seamus, I truly am happy for you

"Love Sirius"

"I'm surprised that the order were convinced so easily", said Hermione.

"How should we plan this", asked Harry.

"Well, should meet at Grimmauld place, and use the floo network, if go in under the cloak, we'll get in without raising any suspicion, then from there, we'll head to the room of mysteries and search for what the Dark Lord wants, and by chance we get attacked, we'll stand back and hide and let Harry retrieve whatever it is, and then we can surprise the death eaters", replied Hermione.

"When should we go", asked Ron

"Friday night, it'll be busy with everyone leaving for the weekend. It'll make it easier for us to slip in undetected", replied Harry.

"I'll send a letter back to the order telling them when and where", said Hermione.
