Twisted Fate

A/N: To Vitani no I didn't take offense just letting you know why it was taking so long to post the next chapter. That and I also hit a little writers block at one point in this chapter.

Edited this chapter because I realized thanx to a review that I had continuity errors. I apologize and hope the fix makes it better. I had forgotten Harry had talked to Draco about Voldemort's Birth name.

Harry awoke early the next morning. His eyes opening slowly as he looked up at the deep green drapes that surrounded his school bed. Harry sat up confused at the green surrounding him and tried to remember why he obviously wasn’t in the Gryffindor dorms.

“Hey Harry, it’s time to get up.” Draco’s voice called from where he was sitting on his bed. Harry jumped a bit at the voice of the blond and grabbed for his glasses. He placed them on his face upset that among the changes his body had gone through his need for glasses was not one of them. Then again it might not have been a genetic thing that made him need glasses after all being in a dark cupboard then thrust into bright light over and over would damage your eyes.

“What? What’s going on? Oh yeah, damn I forgot about yesterday…” Harry muttered distractedly as he thought on the events that had gone by. Draco smirked as Harry pulled himself out of the bed. Harry smirked at Draco as Draco watched him getting ready for the day a bit.

“What is with you Harry?” Draco asked. He was still surprised and disconcerted by this Harry, a Harry that did not wear his heart on his sleeve. It was hard after all the years of seeing Harry being the typical Gryffindor that he was now as hidden as the next Slytherin.

“For the first time since I started going to this school, I feel in control of my destiny.” Harry stated with a smirk playing on his lips. Draco actually laughed at Harry’s words then looked at the black haired boy with narrowed eyes.

“In other words for the first time in your life you are feeling freedom.” Draco stated with a smirk of his own. Harry looked into the blonde’s silver eyes and nodded.

“Yes Draco that is exactly what I am feeling” Harry stated before walking into their shared bathroom. Draco sighed as he conjured up a mirror to fix his blond hair once more. He was trying to block the thoughts of Harry writhing in pleasure beneath him from ruining the new friendship between him and Harry. He then stood thinking on what the Weaslette had said about Harry’s new look.

Draco really needed to get a letter to his father about all the new developments. Since his father was no longer being held in Azkaban he could get said information to the Dark Lord. Harry walked out of the bathroom and glanced at the now pacing Draco. Harry silently laughed at the blonde’s movements before stepping forward a bit.

“Okay Draco let’s head down for breakfast.” Harry said startling Draco out of his thoughts. Draco spun to face Harry frowning a moment. Harry smirked at Draco’s reaction to his voice his long raven black hair tied in a small leather thong at the nape of his neck.

“Harry if you ever scare me again…” Draco threatened his silver eyes flashing with a bit of anger as he looked the boy over. Harry just grabbed onto Draco’s arm and dragged him out of the dorm room with a smirk. His green eyes flashing with suppressed joy for the first time since Sirius had died.

“Okay what ever you say Draco. Let’s just go before we are the only Slytherin’s down there. I’m pretty sure you don’t want to face a table full of Gryffindor’s anymore than I do.” Harry pointed out as he walked out of the common room and into the halls. Draco raced after Harry with his own slight smirk.

They stopped at the doors to the great Hall and glanced at each other. Harry smirked and shook his head a bit. Draco smirked back at him and they then laughed, before turning and pushing open the doors and stalking in time towards the Slytherin table. Mutterings from the other tables filled the Hall as the two of them sat down. Harry looked around the hall and saw Ginny trying to hide from Harry’s new appearance.

“Hey Draco, get over here and sit down so that Professor Snape can hand out the schedules for this year!” Blaise called out from his seat. Draco and Harry smirked as they moved quickly and sat down on one side of the bench. Harry sighed as he filled his plate with food glancing up as Severus held his schedule out to him. Harry nodded to the dark man in thanks before looking at it with a slightly raised eyebrow.

“Well this should be interesting. Draco notice what we have first?” Harry asked. Draco as well as the other 6 year slytherin’s looked down at the schedule and frowned then groaned a bit.

“Double potions with the Gryffindor’s you gotta be kidding me.” Draco groaned. Harry smirked at Draco then shook his head a moment. Draco glanced at Harry and gave the black haired boy a questioning look.

“What are you thinking Harry?” Draco asked softly. The other 6th year Slytherin’s all leaned forward as Harry just shrugged a bit.

“Simple, what better class than potions to teach the foolish Gryffindor’s a lesson. You always used to do it when I was a Gryffindor.” Harry pointed out. The Slytherin’s smirked and leaned back nodding in acceptance. Draco actually grinned a bit as he planned the pranks that could be pulled on the Gryffindor’s. It was at this point the mail began to arrive. Harry instantly stiffened up praying the paper didn’t mention his change of house.

“I can’t believe this! The paper is actually going on about Harry’s house switch!” Blaise cried out looking at the paper. Hearing Balise’s words Harry groaned and hit his head to the table. All the Slytherin’s looked at him in a bit of worry as he did this.

“Harry what is wrong with the article?” Pansy asked where she was sitting a bit surprised at the golden-boys reaction. Harry looked between all the Slytherins and sighed a moment.

“Tomorrow morning with the mail, be prepared for me to get a flood of howlers.” Harry stated with a groan. All the Slytherin’s stared at Harry then nodded in understanding as the remembered last year.

“Damn well we will all help you Harry.” Draco stated. Harry nodded before he finished his breakfast.

“Well lets go get our books for class then we can head to the potions lab, maybe this year I’ll actually be able to do decent at potions since you guys won’t be able to mess them up and Professor Snape keeps a closer eye on the Gryffindor’s for them making pranks on Slytherin’s.” Harry said with a smirk. Draco smirked back and got up from his spot before Harry then the two of them together headed for the entrance of the Great Hall.

“Hey Potter, why don’t you run to your master since you are obviously as Dark as that megalomaniac?” Ron’s voice sneered as he got up and moved to cut off Harry and Draco. With Ron were Dean and Seamus.

“Weasley, learn to say his name. It’s Voldemort and no, he’s not my master if anything what he does when it’s not threatening my life matters not to me. If anything I was going to go get my stuff for double potions. Something you yourself should be doing. Or were you to dense last year to make it into Newt level potions?” Harry asked with a sneer. Draco snickered as Ron’s face began to match his hair color.

“Shut up you traitor! You are the one meant to kill the snake-faced bastard!” Ron snapped and Seamus and Dean nodded their agreement. Though they new they had to get going soon being in the same potions class as Harry.

“Ron I’m not a traitor, well that isn’t quite true. I was a traitor when I convinced the hat not to put me into the house it wanted to. Do you know what it feels like to finally be where I belong? I feel free now get out of my way.” Harry growled at the red faced red head. The Slytherin’s noticed Professor Snape and Professor McGonagall coming up to the group so didn’t draw their wands as Ron did and took a deep breath.

“This is not the time or place to be using your wand Mr. Weasley I suggest you put it away now.” Severus growled out shocking the boy into dropping his wand as Dean and Seamus scattered.

“Excuse us professor Snape. We need to get through to get our supplies for your class. We don’t want to be late after all.” Draco said politely. Severus nodded and let the Slytherin’s through as he kept his eye on Ron. Ron glared at the retreating for of Harry.

“Professor Snape makes a great head of house.” Harry said to Draco who just smirked right at Harry like he knew everything.

“I know so much better than the other ones. He actually makes sure we are okay even from our own housemates.” Draco said as they hurried to their dorms. Harry sighed as Draco said that and frowned.

“I wish McGonagall had done that more. Then maybe second year, fourth year and last year wouldn’t have been so bad for me.” Harry said with a slight shiver. Draco placed a hand one Harry’s shoulder and nodded slowly.

“Don’t worry Harry your among the Slytherin’s now. No more turning on you at any moment.” Draco stated. Harry smirked then grabbed his potions supplies.

“Okay let’s get to the class before we are late. Don’t want to make Professor Snape mad at us.” Harry stated and hurried out into the halls and towards the potions lab. Draco was just behind the raven haired boy with a slight smirk on his own face. He watched Harry’s movements and licked his lips a moment as he thought of the other boy’s arse. He wanted to touch it but now wasn’t the time.

Harry skidded to a stop then entered the potions classroom with a slight smirk. Draco looked at Harry as he walked into the room. Draco stepped in right behind him. Draco moved towards his normal seat then motioned for Harry to follow him to the seat next to him. Harry soon joined Draco before then preparing their cauldrons. Double potions always meant they were making a potion.

“Hey traitor, hope you know what’s going to happen now.” Seamus snarled from his seat. Harry just shook his head as he made sure everything was set appropriately for the lesson. He watched as Snape stalked into the classroom his robes billowing as they always have. Immediately the class settled not wanting to draw the potion master’s ire.

“Today will be a simply potion and one each of you will be testing before the end of the class. We will be making a famille potion. This potion is made then has two drops of blood to it before being poured over a sheet of parchment. This will cause the name of the person who’s blood is put into the potion and their parents both mother and father.” Snape said then pointed his wand to the board at the front of the room.

“Instructions and ingredients are on the board. This is a solo project so collect your supplies and start.” He finished off. Harry hurried to the back of the room with Draco as they gathered the ingredients required. He quickly went back to the desk reading over the first few directions before following them carefully.

Draco was doing the same thing and glanced at how Harry was doing a few things as well. Once in awhile Draco would bend over and show Harry a better way to do something. Harry thanked Draco each time smiling. He now knew he would be doing far better at potions this year.

Harry watched as the potion slowly changed colors with each ingredient added. He smirked as each time the color was perfect or as close to perfect as he could ever imagine. Once or twice he glanced at Draco’s and could see his was exactly perfect. He shook his head a bit with a slight sigh. He knew he would never be that good but he could obviously be very good at it.

Harry stirred the potion the last two times. He then removed the flame from the cauldron. Harry was quite happy as he let it cool preparing to bottle it as he pulled out the special knife for adding his blood to the potion. Once the potion was the right temperature he bottled two vials of it before opening one and adding two drops of blood to the vial. He poured the contents of the vial once it was fully mixed over the parchment and waited for the results.

Harry smiled as the words began to appear. First his name and he smiled a bit seeing it then he watched as two lines appear. Beneath one of the lines appeared his mother name making him smile as he traced the letters. Slowly he looked beneath the second line and frowned. He reached at his pulled back hair and blinked a few times.

“This can’t be right.” Harry muttered drawing Draco’s attention who glanced at the words on Harry’s parchment.

“Who is Tom Marvolo Riddle?” Draco asked causing Harry to smirk a moment then sigh a bit. Harry then looked at Professor Snape with a slight frown.

“Professor I need to double check my results against another potion…” Harry said startling Professor Snape from his walk around the room. He walked over to Harry and looked at his results.

“I see what you mean Potter. Fine Draco is yours perfect?” Professor Snape asked. Draco nodded showing the professor his sheet. He took Draco’s second vial added drops of Harry’s blood. He then poured the mixed potion over a new parchment and watched as the results came out the same.

“It seems that your father is not who we all believed.” Professor Snape said with a slight shake of his head.

“All the easier to do what I am planning to now.” Harry stated simply with a smirk. Draco looked at Harry then at the name before glancing at Professor Snape.

“Harry who is Tom Marvolo Riddle?” Draco asked with a slight smirk. Harry smirked then laughed very loudly.

“Tom Marvolo Riddle. Better known now of days as Lord Voldemort or You know who.” Harry stated. Draco stared at Harry in shock as did the rest of the class. Harry himself began to laugh shaking his head in surprise.

“Oh yes Mr. Potter announce to the whole class that you are not the son of James Potter but the son of the most feared dark lord in the last few centuries.” Professor Snape snarled. Harry smirked and shrugged.

”My life can’t get more messed up and it explains how I temporarily got rid of him.” Harry stated shocking a few but the pure bloods. They began talking to each other.
