Chapter 8: Plans.

'And now Harry, let's talk about that odd feeling of yours...'

'Ah, that. I think I already know what that was...' Harry mumbled.

'What was it then?' Ron asked. 'Maybe it was your reaction to Dark magic? You said the book had a weird feeling.'

'It was something like that but not exactly.'

'Go on.'

Just get it over with. 'I think the source of the feeling was, um, my connection to Voldemort.' Hearing gasps, Harry sped up his explanation. 'Like you know how my scar used to hurt back in our first year whenever he was close by? The connection is still there and it's not really doing anything except for when I was Kissed I could feel it inside me and it kind of helped me keep my soul.'

Glancing at his friends, he saw that Ron had a shocked expression and Hermione was pale. Harry wondered if he'd done the right by telling them about his connection to the most powerful Dark lord in decades. He hoped so.

A gnome ran by unnoticed and dived into a rose bush.

'This, connection thing, it doesn't mean he can possess you right? Not like Ginny was?' Ron squeaked.

'I don't think so. I hadn't thought of that.' He hadn't thought of that. Damn. 'I hope he doesn't. He would have tried it already probably.'

'I suppose this doesn't really surprise me all that much,' Hermione said.

'It doesn't?'

'Not really. I mean, of course it's unexpected, but after what's happened already, it makes sense for Harry to have this connection.'

When put that way, it kind of did make sense.

'I do believe you should tell Professor Dumbledore about this though.'

'He already knows Hermione.'

'About the connection yes, but you should tell him about this. It's new, and possibly related to the Kiss issue. The teachers need to know about these kinds of things so they can look out for you properly.'

'I don't want the teachers all knowing I've got some link to the most feared and murderous wizard ever. It's bad enough that you guys know. It's not a great feeling knowing that I'm connected to the guy who murdered my parents and loads of other people.' Harry retrieved an egg from under a bush and put it carefully in his basket.

'Mate, we know you're nothing like You-Know-Who,' Ron assured him. 'Whatever link you have to him is scary but dead useful if it tells you when he's near by. Not that I'd want one though.'

'Ron's right Harry, you're you. And the teachers don't necessarily have to hear everything, but at least tell professor Dumbledore, or Professor McGonagall. It's safer.'

'... Alright. I sometimes wonder about safety though. Look at everything that's happened at school since we've been there.'

Hermione was about to argue this, then stopped. He did have a point there. 'There's one more thing, Harry. Studying the Dark arts is dangerous enough, but with your er, condition,'

'We're just looking at theory stuff right now,' Harry said. 'No practical until we have a better idea. In fact, I'm supposed to visit the hospital sometime soon so I can wait until then to start.' That way, it would be safer for him, and there wouldn't be any extra Dark magic traces to try and explain. Seeing as this would be his first non-school check up in years, and considering his history, he'd probably be scanned for Dark magic. 'You guys don't need to worry so much. But thanks.'

Ron and Hermione smiled.

'Oh my God, what is that gnome doing!'
