Chapter 5: Being resorted

Harry once again woke up and found it hard to breath. "Asha get off me!" Harry grumbled while pushing at the black fur ball. Asha purred and got off of him. Harry sucked in a deep breath, now that nothing was hindering him. He sat up in his bed and scratched Asha behind the ears. "So how do you think our day is going to be?" Harry asked her. She mewled a little and jumped of the bed.

Screams filled the room. "WHAT IS THAT THING! OMG HAARRRRY GET IT AWAY!" Ron screamed in horror. Harry chuckled and opened his curtains. As he took in the scene unfolding before his eyes, he couldn't help laughing. Ron was wrapped around one of the bedpost, trying to climb higher, while screaming bloody murder. Asha was sitting on the floor looking straight at Ron, while her tail was swishing from side to side. Her face was showing her playfulness, while she was licking her lips. "Harry is that yours?" Deans voice interrupted Rons screams. Harry looked towards Dean and saw him eying Asha curiously. Just as he asked the question, Asha jumped onto Rons bed. More tear-filled screams echoed through the room. Ron tried to get down quickly, and ended up falling with a big thud onto the floor. He looked up and noticed the small black cat eying him hungrily; he scrambled onto his feet and ran out of the room, in only his shit brown boxers. Harry grinned at the other teen. "Yeah, I bought her in Knockturn Alley this summer." Harry said and looked back at the panther. "Oh, and she really isn't that dangerous, she is only playing." Harry said with a smile.

"Was that Ron? Was it a spider again? Shit man that guy seriously need some help." Seamus said, while turning around in his bed, to get a little more sleep before classes would start.

Harry grinned and went to pick up Asha. "I think that was enough drama for today for you, little missy." Harry said and dropped the kitten on his bed. Somewhere down in the common room a voice could be heard. "MR. WEASLEY, WHAT IN MERLINS NAME ARE YOU WEARING? PUT SOME CLOTHES ON AND FOLLOW ME, NOW!" Professor McGonagalls voice boomed. "B-But professor! There is a dangerous creature in my room!" Ron said in a panicking voice. "Mr. Weasley you really need to get over you arachnophobia! NOW PUT ON SOME CLOTHES!" McGonagall said in a stern tone. Harry snickered a little while walking into the bathroom.

After his shower he went into the dorm to get some clothes. "Harry how did you get all those scars?" Neville asked, when he noticed the whip marks on Harrys back. 'Shit I forgot to put on a glamour!' Harry thought. "Uhm, I don't really feel like talking about them right now, Neville." Harry said and gave Neville a look that said; end of discussion. Neville nodded. "It's a nice tattoo." Neville said with a smile and turned around to put his own clothes on. Harry gave a small smile and went to his suitcase. Asha was looking at his every move. He grabbed a pair of black pants, a green button down shirt, and a pair of black dragon hide boots. He also grabbed his robe and put it on, but left it open. He looked at Asha. "You stay in my room. Come find me if anything bad happens, got it?" Harry asked the panther. Asha gave a small growl and nudged his hand. He smiled at her and scratched her a little behind the ear, before he left the room.

After he had said goodbye to Asha, he grabbed his bag and went down to the great hall to get some breakfast. He chose to sit at the end of the table, and completely ignored the glares that Ron kept sending him. Harry also noticed that Ron had gotten dressed. He looked at Hermione and noticed that she was sending him less than happy looks. Harry just sneered at her and returned his attention to his food.

After a little time, professor McGonagall came and handed schedules out. When Harry got his he immediately looked at what classes he had with the Slytherins. Potion, Charms, DADA and Transfiguration, those classes was Harry favorite classes that day. Harry looked towards the head table and saw that the new DADA teacher was one Remus Lupin. This year's defense against the dark arts class was going to be good. Harry catched the wolfs eyes, and gave a small nod in greeting. Remus smiled and gave a nod.

When Harry had finished his meal, he grabbed his bag and went for the dungeons. The first class was double potions. As Harry reached the door he met Draco. "Hi Dray." Harry said with smile. Draco nodded. "Hi, how are you holding up so far?" the blond asked with a smirk. "Fine, I guess. Weasley woke most of the room up this morning, with all his screaming." Harry grinned. Draco lifted an eyebrow. "Yeah I heard about it, some say that McGonagall found him in the common room, in only his underwear." Draco said in disbelief. "Yes, that is pretty much what happened, and it was his brown boxers." Harry said evilly. Draco wrinkled his nose. "Ew!" He said. Harry nodded in agreement. They both jumped as the door was opened and they were let into the room.

They sat down at a table in the front row, as students started filling in. After the last student had sat down, Professor Snape came stroding into the room with his robes billowing after him. He was just about to say something, when Ron came bursting into the room. His face was red, he was sweating and he was out of breath. "Mr. Weasley! It would be nice if you took your time and learned the clock probably, you are five minutes late. That means that five points will be taken from Gryffindor. Now sit down! That should be just about something, which someone at your caliber can handle." Snape said with a sneer. Ron quickly found a seat beside Hermione.

Snape then turned to the class again. "I feel that we need to brush up on some of the potions we have been through, so today we will be making the invigoration draught, the ingredients are on the blackboard." He said and tapped his wand at the blackboard. Harry turned to Draco. "I will go get the ingredients." Harry said and walked over to the cupboard. In the meantime Draco got everything ready. When Harry returned they both began their work. As the class went on, the potion came to a point, were it needed to simmer a little. Harry and Draco decided to clean their things up, while waiting for it to be done. Harry put up a shield around their cauldron before moving to one of the sinks.

As he was walking back, he noticed Ron levitating something towards his and Dracos cauldron. As Ron made to drop the thing into the potion, a shock went through his body and he screamed. Everyone in the room turned to look at the red haired boy. He was still levitating the thing over Draco and Harrys potion. A new scream tore from his throat. "It will keep hurting until you remove whatever it is, you trying to drop into my cauldron." Harry said loud and clear. Ron turned to look at him, while Snape turned to look at Ron. Snapes gaze quickly turned dark. "Mr. Weasley! What exactly do you think you're doing? Sabotaging another member from you house potion? Twenty points from Gryffindor and a week's detention with Flich starting tonight!" Professor Snape angrily said. Ron screamed again. "And do remove that slug from Mr. Potter and Malfoys cauldron!" Snape sneered. Ron flushed and quickly levitated the slug back to his table. The rest of the class Ron spent glaring at Harry. Harry didn't care.

When the class was over, and Snape went to inspect the potions. He looked long at Harry and Dracos. He gave a small nod to Draco and sneered at Harry. "Ten points to Slytherin and Gryffindor for a good potion." He said and left. Harry stared openmouthed after the Potion Master for a moment until Draco elbowed him. "Pack your things so we can leave and get some lunch." Draco said and got up from his seat.

As the boys entered the great hall, they were cornered by Ron. "It's your fault that I have two weeks detention! First that stupid cat and now in potion! What the hell is going on with you? That stupid ferret has done something to you!" Ron yelled in anger while grabbing a hold of Harrys shirt. Harry sneered at Ron. "I told you! Don't call him a ferret! And nothing is wrong with me! What the hell is wrong with you? Trying to ruin my potion, lying about writing this summer, telling me not to come to the Burrow and then changing your mind! And when were you going to tell me about the deal you have made with Dumbledore? Fuck off, Weasel! We are not friends anymore!" Harry hissed back at the other boy. Ron blanched at the mention of Dumbledore. How did he know?

Draco looked back and forth as the two former friends were yelling at each other. "Just fuck off Weasel! Get over the fact that you won't be able to bask in Harrys glory anymore." Draco sneered at the redhead. Ron turned sharply to look at Draco. His face turned as red as his hair. Before Draco could react he was punched by Ron right in the face. As Draco landed on the floor, Ron jumped onto him and kept hitting him. Seeing all this, Harry was reminded by the Dursleys. He growled loudly and grabbed Ron by the neck, to stop the boy from hitting his friend. He leaned down and whispered into his ear. "If you don't get off Draco right now, then I'm going to give you to Voldemort as a peace offering, since you are a part of the order, I have no doubt about you being useful to him, maybe he will kill you fast, maybe he will kill you slowly. I hope the latter. Now get off of him!" Harry hissed into his ear. Ron had frozen at the scary tone that Harrys voice had. He shuddered and quickly got off the blond before running out of the great hall.

Harrys eyes followed the redheaded boy for a moment, before he looked down at Draco. The blond was a mess. Harry sighed and grabbed Dracos hand, so that he could drag him from the floor. Just as he wound the blonds hand around his shoulder, Severus Snape came strolling through the doors. He stopped in his walk as he took in the state that Draco was in. "What is going on here!" Snape hissed in anger. Harry looked at the students in the room. He noticed that he had everyone's attention. "Walk with us." Harry said and walked towards the doors. "What makes you think that I will be commanded around, Potter! I'm a professor!" Sneered Snape. Harry scowled at the man. "Yes I am aware of that sir. But if you don't walk with me, then we will have the whole hall as an audience, I don't like that, so either you walk with me or you can forget about the story!" Harry growled out and walked through the doors. Snape clenched his fist, how he hated that boy, and followed the two teens.

As the three men walked towards the hospital wing, Harry proceeded to tell the Professor what happened. Snape was livid; no one hurt his students and got free. He left Harry to tend to Draco as he went off to find Professor McGonagall. After some very tiring stairs, Harry and Draco entered the Hospital Wing. Madam Pomfrey came bustling out of her office. She quickly made a bed for Draco and got to work on him. He had a broken nose, split lip and eyebrow, a broken rib and lots of bruises. A half hour and many potions later Draco looked like he did before the fight. Poppy told Harry that the blond was to stay for a few hours, so that she could be sure that his ribs were healing as they should. Just as she was done talking to Harry, the doors flew open and Blaise Zabini came running in. He quickly spotted Draco and ran to his side.

"Is he going to be okay?" Blaise asked the nurse with a shaky voice. She nodded and left. Blaise then turned to Harry. "This is all your fault! You are the one with shitty friends! Don't come near Dray again!" Blaise hissed at the raven haired boy. Harry flinched at the accusation and got up from where he was seated. "You're right. I'm sorry Dray." Harry said in a sad tone, he gave the blonds hand a small squeeze before walking out of the room.

The rest of the classes were pretty uneventful. As the time for dinner arrived everyone was seated in the great hall. Harry noticed that Draco was back with the Slytherins and was scowling at Blaise. Harry shrugged; it was none of his business. About halfway through the dinner, Dumbledore raised from his seat.

"It has come to my attention, that one of the students here wishes to be resorted. As the rules say, a student can be resorted if there is a proper reason for it. So Harry Potter please come up here." Dumbledore voice boomed out through the room, while he was staring straight at Harry.

All the students started whispering, as he got up from his seat and walked up to the head table. Dumbledore had transfigurated a chair to him and summoned the sorting hat. He motioned for Harry to sit and placed the hat on his head.

As the hat was placed on his head, a voice started whispering into his ear. "Ahh, Harry Potter, I knew you would come back. So have you changed your mind about where you belong? Yes you say. Yes I can see that you have been through a lot and you have changed. Yes, then if you are sure then I will place you in… SLYTHERIN!" The hat yelled out loud. Harry smiled a little as he heard the other Slytherins cheer. He took of the hat and gave it to a very sad looking Dumbledore. Harry looked directly into the older man's eyes. "Thank you for letting me be resorted." Harry said to him. "You knew what house you would end up in, didn't you?" Dumbledore said in a grave voice. Harry nodded and looked towards Remus. The wolf looked confused and lost. He then turned his gaze towards Snape. The man looked like he was speculating something. Harry gave the man a small nod, before jumping down the chair and walking to his new table.

He sat down beside Draco, who was looking shocked at him. Dumbledore coughed a little. "Yes, that was quite surprising, why don't everyone continue with their dinner." The man said and went to sit in his chair. Professor McGonagall leaned towards Dumbledore. "Albus, what is going on? How come you didn't notify me about Harry being resorted?" McGonagall asked irritated that she was caught off guard. "Minerva, I didn't think that he would actually change house. I thought that he would be sorted back into Gryffindor." Albus said in a sad tone. Snape snorted. "He fooled you! Maybe he does belong in my house." The raven haired man said and smirked at the two older professors. The two elder professors looked at Snape.

McGonagall grumbled something and continued with her dinner. Albus stared long and hard at Snape. "I believe that I need a small chat with you after dinner Severus." Dumbledore said to the other man, while looking over his half moon glasses. Snape sneered and returned his gaze to his plate.

Harry had been observing the head table for a little. He growled in anger as the headmaster leaned over to his new head of house. Draco noticed his bad mood. "What is it Harry?" He asked. Harry turned his eyes to the blond boy. "Dumbledore is already giving Snape trouble about my resort" Harry whispered. At the other side of the table Blaise Zabini was looking at him. He didn't like the fact, that Potter was so close to his boyfriend.

After dinner Harry followed Draco down to the dungeons. He was told the password (Pure magic) to his new common room. Draco showed him the room they would be sharing and they noticed that all his stuff already was there, including Asha. They did some homework before they retired for the night. As the evening went on neither noticed the very angry and jealous boy that was observing them.

After the dinner Severus Snape went to find the headmaster. He had a feeling that Albus blamed Draco for Potters new behavior. As he came to a hold in front of the door leading into the office, he gave a hard knock. "Come in Severus" Albus said somewhere behind the wood. Snape sighed and entered the room.

"Please take a seat. Lemon drop?" The old man asked, while thrusting a bowl filled with the yellow candy into Snapes face. Snape sneered and shook his head to say no. "Why don't you just tell me what you want? I don't have all night old man!" Snape hissed irritated. Dumbledore sighed as if he was dealing with a stubborn child.

"As I am sure you have noticed, something have happened to Harry. I think that young Mr. Malfoy is a bad influence on him. I was hoping that you, as his new head of house, would help me make sure that the two young men, spent as little time together as possible." Dumbledore said in a calm voice. Snape felt his anger rise. "I am sure that Potter is capable at taking care of himself. If not, then he wouldn't be placed in MY house! I think that you are correct that something has happened to him, but I am sure that it is nothing serious, now excuse me, I don't have time for this silly conversation!" Snape said in a hiss. What was the old man playing at? Snape got up from his chair and was about to leave the room when the man spoke again.

"Severus Snape! Sit down now!" Albus hissed at the younger man. Snape blanched at the sudden anger he detected in the grey-haired man's voice. He quickly sat down. "I do not care about what you think! You will keep an eye on Harry, if he acts weird then you tell me! Do you understand?" Albus said in an angry tone. Snape scowled at him and gave a small nod. Dumbledore looked at him for a moment before he pointed at the door. "Good, now get out!" The man said. Snape sneered a last time at the man, before he disappeared out through the door.

After Snape has left, Dumbledore sat in his chair thinking. 'Why does no one do as I say anymore, they all suddenly wants to decide for themselves. The fact that Harry has been resorted into Slytherin must be because of Voldemort. The mark that he left on the boy, must be greater than I previously thought. This is not good. That stupid boy is going to destroy my plans! What am I going to do? I must make sure that he isn't exposed to too much dark magic. I don't want him to go to the other side. I need him as my pawn! And pawns listen to their kings! I must keep a better eye on him from now on. I don't want him to destroy my lifework. The wizard world belongs to me! I am the greatest wizard alive since Merlin! Yes, keep an eye on him that will probably give me an idea about how dark he has become. Yes, and keep him away from the Malfoy heir. Right, that is the plan!' Dumbledore thought to himself while fiddling with his beard, a cunning smile flittered over his lips as he formed his new plan.

Meanwhile Harry was lying in his bed with Asha and thinking about, how he should contact Voldemort. He needed to get an idea about what the other vampires plan was for the wizarding world. He couldn't really decide what side he would be on, until after he had that little chat with the man.

TBC.
