Chapter 1: A Truce
Harry's POV (Author's note: It's just for this chapter if you don't like this kind of POV)
As I sit here at the welcoming feast, thinking back to when I had come to realize that all the people I love, like family, have played with me ever since I knew them; the Weasleys, Hermione, Dumbledore, and mostly everybody else; except for the Slytherins and the Weasley twins. With Slytherins you could always expect something is wrong, but for it to be your own best friends? Ron, my first friend, was only after my money! I can't believe I fell for it, I feel so stupid!
Some people say that I'm brave, while others say that I'm the most golden boy they could ever find; well they're wrong! Most people don't know this but I have a mask when I am around people. No one ever found out, except the Slytherins and ever since last year they've been nicer to me, not that people would have noticed it. But I sure did, it shocked me for a moment; but I knew that they would have found out either way.
For example, Professor Snape. He hasn't been harassing me like he usually does in class and he has also been giving me these strange looks of pity. If that's what you want to call them. During the last year, I found out that Snape was actually was a human being and could have a heart and all that jazz. ::Sigh:: Now I really regret not letting the sorting hat place me in Slytherin.
Another, example could be Draco Malfoy; seriously I think he was the one that was looking at me most of the time. It's almost as if...he knows... People already think I'm crazy or something to that degree for saying things like," the Dark Lord is back" even though it is true! Whatever, I don't care. But seriously, people need to stop being so damn arrogant!
Especially that Granger and the weasel; they were getting paid, received protection from the Death Eaters, and had the right to my possession after I die, which is bull shit by the way. At first it hurt to know that a friend would do something like that to me. But that hurt became anger and spite. I should have known from all th jealous sneers I received, but no loss. He was a prick anyway. The only Weasleys that haven't stabbed me in the back have been the twins, which act like Slytherins.
Dumbledore: you can read all the books on him all it says is that he defeated Grinwald, but it never says what a fucking ass manipulator he is. From the moment my parents died, the old bastard has taken over my life. I hate him as much as I hate Voldemort.
What made me even more furious, is that Sirius and Remus don't care for me at all. I thought they truly loved me like there own son, I guess I was wrong yet again. I won't fall for it again, because this year, the masks will shatter. ::Smirks:: This is going to be so much fun, especially with the twins helping me.
I'm going to win this war my way, not Dumbledore's and definetly not Voldemort's. Even if I have to use dark magic or ancient magic that is considered 'illegal' due to the power of the spells. After this is over, I can live my life the way I want to and I can finally rest.
I sigh, Granger looks at me worried ::snorts:: yeah right. "Are you alright, Harry?" I was disgusted with her act, it was hard trying not to sneer, but I managed it.
"Yes, I'm fine Hermione." I wanted to scream at her and say 'Do I look fucking okay?' but I couldn't at least until tomorrow ::smirks:: I can't wait to see their faces.
"If you're sure Harry." Granger answered, and then went back to talking with the Weasel. I looked up from Granger's face and look straight into the eyes of the Slytherin Prince, Draco Malfoy.
As I look into his eyes, concern could be seen. ::Scoffs:: wow that's a new one. I looked away from him and started eating my dinner.
After the feast was done, I managed to get away from Weasley and Granger into one of the less used corridors. I was heading up to the Astronomy Tower, but was stopped by a voice.
"Potter." Malfoy said.
"What Malfoy?" I answered.
"I want a truce between us. I've watched you for a while, Potter, and I know you are hiding who you really are."
I glared at him, but he stared back. I narrowed my eyes."Yes well, the sorting hat wanted me in the snake's pit but I said no so it put me in the lion's den."
"What a very Slytherin thing to do Potter"
"Thanks," I said. I narrowed my eyes...finally making a desicion "and call me Harry."
"You can call me Draco then. Truce?" Draco said as he put his hand out. I took it and said "Truce." Then, he walked off toward the dungeons.
"Draco." He stops and turns to look at me as I said his name. "Be prepared tomorrow, I have a surprise." I smirked and left, not waiting to see the stunned expressin on his face.
I kept walking until I reached the Room of Requirement. I had finally decided not to go to the Astronomy Tower.
While thinking of tomorrow's events, I fell asleep on the bed that I had just conjured.
