A/N: Ummm, my internet is still up so I can update. It was due on the 3rd and I don't have the funds to pay it so it will eventually be shut off until I can pay to have it back on in a few weeks. When it will be shut off, I don't know.


Chapter 11: Harry Can Manipulate You Too!


Harry's POV switches to 3rd Person


It wasn't until I was back at Hogwarts that I realized how much I truly wanted Tom and the life he was desperately trying to give me. Hermione had noticed I seemed less happy and was determined to cheer me up. After a week of her harping on me I finally blew my fuse. Normally this wouldn't be a big deal,but no. I shouted right in the middle of the Great Hall.

"Harry, please. Just try." She said.

I turned red. " NO, 'MIONE. I CAN'T TAKE THIS SHIT ANYMORE AND I AM DONE." I yelled out. Seeing the pain in her face I softened. "I'm sorry, ok. I just don't know how much longer I can do this." I whispered as I hugged her.

Pulling back I saw the tear streaked face staring back at me. She nodded. "I know Harry. Just don't take it out on me." We had hugged again and then a wrinkled pale hand had settled on my shoulder.

"Harry, my boy, why don't you come up to my office for a moment." Albus Dumbledore said smiling.


That is where Harry sat now. In a rather hard chair before the Headmaster's desk, the old man sitting in his chair behind it. A tea service sat on the desk between them which Harry refused. "So, Harry, what has you so frustrated?" Dumbledore asked sweetly. Harry smirked when he felt the push into his mind. He allowed what would appear to be a dream for Harry to the forefront of his mind before closing it off. Tom and Ryder had been snuggling while Tom's hand ran up Ryder's thigh at the first death eater meeting she had ever been to. Dumbledore pulled out shocked and Harry reinforced his shields.

"Harry, what is this?" The Headmaster asked looking worried. Harry pretended to look scared and shaken up. His anger seeping into his eyes. "I don't know. I dreamed it last night." He whispered looking up through his lashes. The Headmaster looked livid. "I know what it is. Severus told me that's Voldemort's new lover, Ryder. It seems he wished for you to see it as well."

"L-lover?" Harry stuttered in question. "Dear Merlin. I think I am going to be sick." he continued covering his face with his hands. "Can we finish this later?" Harry asked from behind his hands. Dumbledore nodded and Harry bolted out of the office. He ran all the way to the dungeons and knocked on Severus door.


When it was opened he ran inside and collapsed. A stunned Severus turned away from the door to see his son on the floor laughing hysterically, clutching his sides as tears streamed down his face. He raised an eyebrow which apparently made it worse. When the frantic laughter had subsided, Harry found a large glass of water pushed into his hands. "What the hell happened?" Severus asked.

Harry grinned. "Do you have a vial?" he asked. Severus produced the requested instrument and pulled the memory of what had just happened in the Headmaster's office out and into the vial. He handed it over.

Severus got his pensieve out and poured the memory in. He dived into it and Harry sat watching the swirling liquid. Ten minutes later a very red and chuckling Sev came tumbling out. "Oh my Merlin, Harry. That was brilliant. Can I keep the memory for the next meeting? Tom has got to see this."

Harry smiled and nodded. "I should win an award for that. It was awesome."


Classes had continued on, the Death Eaters were meeting regularly, and Harry was lying in wait. The secret weapon that would bring them all to death or glory, depending on which side you were on. It was almost three months after Christmas, late March when Harry was walking to class. Hermione was beside him and the curse came from behind. Harry turned when the first one missed him. "Run. 'Mione." he yelled not knowing if she could hear him well or not. The second curse rebounded off his quickly erected shield. Six more wands became pointed upon him and Harry knew seconds before it happened that he had made a few new enemies.

"Miss Granger, what is the meaning of this?" Severus asked as the younger witch came bursting in on his second year potions class. She had just left his classroom about twenty minutes prior. "It's Harry. Someone attacked us in the charms corridor. He told me to run." Her hand went to her wrist as she was speaking and Severus knew then that she was feeling Harry's pain. He waved his hand and cleaned the entire room in one swipe. "Class dismissed." Severus bellowed.

Severus ran after Hermione as his fingers rolled up his left sleeve and he pressed his first finger to his mark hissing upon contact. Even though Tom couldn't come in the castle at least he would know something was wrong and hopefully realized it was Harry.

Meanwhile, Harry had been aparated to an unknown room. It was dark and damp, but completely unfamiliar. He had activated his wrist band and knew Hermione would be looking for him. Luckily Tom had allowed him to make a leather band for him as well.


Two weeks passed with no luck in finding Harry. Dumbledore had been alerted and had members of the Order looking for him. Tom had all his followers who knew of Ryder's true existence on the lookout as well. The Daily Prophet had gotten word of his disappearance and determined he no longer wished to be a member of the wizarding world. The newspaper had convinced many that it was not kidnap, but a way to get him out of his 'duty to the wizarding world' and such.

Harry had seen his attackers' faces. He had to give them some credit. They had put him in powerful shackles that prevented him from using any magic. He had known that Ronald and Ginerva Weasley were bitter and upset with him, Ron for abandoning him and Ginny because he was gay. Harry had never imagined they would try something such as this. His bracelet no longer worked to send messages. His ring had been removed along with all his clothing but his boxers. Harry had no way out.

Severus was stalking the halls late one night when he heard talking near the kitchens. Thinking as any Professor would that it was students out of bed he stepped closer hiding himself in the shadows. Sev had never expected to hear what he did.

"Gin, we can't tell Hermione. You know she sides with him on everything now." a boy said. There was a slight pause. "Well then, we will just keep him in the dungeon of the Shack until we can figure out what to do, okay Ron?"

Severus had to fight back his gasp. Stepping forward he barked. "100 points from Gryffindor and detention with me Monday, Wednesday, and Friday evenings at 7. Now get back to your common room." The two had jumped up and ran not knowing he had heard every word.

Severus went pressed his mark once more and was instantly summoned. "You have news." Tom stated before he had even caught his breath. Severus nodded. "I know where he is. The youngest two Weasley's took him. Shall I inform the old coot?" he asked.

"Yes and when he is safe tell him to write to me." Tom continued. "Also make sure Harry understands that I will kill them, both of them, if they still live when we attack."


Harry blinked as he was carried out into bright sunlight. He hissed in pain not knowing how long he had been passed out. Harry blinked his eyes open and caught the concerned gaze of his father looking down on him. "W..." he whispered not being able to finish. His mouth felt like cotton had been stuffed inside. Severus smirked. "I overheard Mr and Miss Weasley speaking of you while patrolling for out of bed students last night. They were questioned at length and we discovered exactly where you were and how to get you out. It took myself, the Headmaster, and a few Order members a while to get those cuffs off that were preventing your magic. The sun rose about ten minutes ago, I would hazard to guess." Harry groaned and closed his eyes once more.

He awoke once more in the infirmary bandages around his right wrist and both ankles and a severe pain in his left side. Lifting his pajama top he saw a massive bruise in the final stages of healing. "Poppy?" he asked loudly having been given permission to call her that after all the time he had spent in her ward. The mediwitch appeared and handed him a potion and a glass of cool water which he downed without question. The pain receded and he could think a little clearer.

"What happened to the Weasley's?" he asked. He heard a chuckle before Sev stepped around the corner and answered. "Expelled and Molly isn't too happy with them from what I heard." He stepped forward and handed him his snake ring. "This is yours correct?" he asked. Harry took it and placed it back on it's proper finger noticing immediately it was hot. He winked to Sev and snuggled down as thought to get some more sleep mumbling a quick 'Thanks.' as he went.

Harry smiled later that day when he finally had a moment alone to listen to the message. The hissing voice of a man he knew now he loved whispered from the ring. "Ry, don't you ever think I will let you get away once I can finally tell the world you are mine. Something I never thought possible happened, but am so glad has, I love you." Tom said the parseltongue making it all the sweeter.


A/N: La-La-La... I don't have nothing else to say, but 'damn them Weasley's', lol. Wait 'till the twins, Bill, and Charlie hear of this.
