Chapter 3
Harry was slowly coming back to reality. His vision was still blurry. His first thought was, that he knew the white ceiling. But that couldn’t be. He couldn’t be at Hogwarts, because he was still at Slytherin Manor. Voldemort would never bring him to Hogwarts. The next thing he noticed, was a body besides him. He turned his head and came directly face to face with Voldemort. His red eyes glared menacingly at him.
„Ah, my boy you are awake.“ Harry snapped his head back when he heard Dumbledore’s happy voice. What in the name of Merlin was he doing in Hogwarts together with Voldemort? And why was he laying with said dark wizard in one bed? „Headmaster how did I come here?“ Dumbledore chuckled: „Well my boy, our dear Severus brought you here, together with Tom.“ Voldemort snared at the mentioning of his given name. Now Harry noticed the hovering figure of his Potion Master. „But why?“ Harry asked. Snape snorted: „Because you and the Dark Lord felled unconscious after your little fit. I couldn’t let you two die, or the light and the dark side would be after my head.“
Harry fidgeted uncomfortably. „Do we have to lay on one bed?“ He asked. Dumbledore’s eyes dimmed for a moment. „I am afraid so. The bond between you and Voldemort needs to settle down. And for that, proximity is necessary.“ „Don’t talk over my head you old coot! Voldemort snarled. Harry in order to prevent more trouble, said quickly: „Did you find anything, headmaster?“ Dumbledore nodded: „Not much, but more than nothing.“
„And would you enlighten us, headmaster?“ Voldemort hissed. „Of course my dear boy. Considering what Severus told me, you two don’t just have to stay close to each other, but you also can’t attack the other one.“ „ Yes, we already know that.“ Voldemort was getting impatient. „So my assumption is that this bond is some kind of marriage bond.“ Harry gaped. „But we don’t love each other!“ He exclaimed. „Indeed my boy,“ the headmaster went on. „But in the wizarding world love isn’t necessary. It’s like a bond of an arranged marriage.“ „But you can undo it? Can’t you?“
Dumbledore sight sadly. „I’m afraid I don’t know how,“ he answered. Harry paled and laid back down. „ I will do my best to find a way.“ Dumbledore promised. This couldn’t be true. This had to be a bad joke. Why the crazy stuff did always happened to him? He, Harry Potter was something akin to married to the Dark Lord. This was a nightmare. The only good thing was, that they still couldn’t hurt each other.
Madam Pomfrey came floating in, stopping his train of thoughts: „I have to explain to both of you, to which things you have to pay special attention,“ she said in a stern voice. Harry nodded. „You already know that you have to stay close to each other, but I fear that isn’t enough. The more you are apart from each other, the more energy and magic the bond needs to stabilize. You have to touch each other for at least six hours a day. And it has to be skin on skin contact. I advise you to just share a bed at night. This way you can ignore the other better at the day.“
„I won’t sleep another night with Potter in one bed!“ Voldemort said. Snape joint the conversation: „Please, My Lord, bear with that boy or you might collapse again.“ Voldemort didn’t give any sign that he had heard his follower. „What will happen now?“ Harry asked. „Earlier on we all agreed that you two will stay here at Hogwarts.“ Dumbledore’s eyes twinkled merrily. To Harry it sounded more like Dumbledore had talked Voldemort into it. And by the dark look on the dark wizards face he was right.
„When you two feel better, you are allowed to leave the hospital wing any time. You can stay at Gryffindor Tower.“ Dumbledore informed them. Voldemort hissed and tried to kill the headmaster with his glare: „I, the Dark Lord will not stay in that tower!“ Dumbledore smiled at him: „We will consider new arrangements if your stay turns out to be a long one. Ah and Harry? The password is bravery.“ With these words he swept out of the hospital wing. Silence fell over the hospital wing. Harry didn’t dare to say something.
At last Voldemort got up: „Potter, stand up!“ Voldemort ordered. „I won’t stay any longer in here!“ Harry got up. „My lord, shall I accompany you?“ Snape asked. „No, just start to research again.“ Snape bowed slightly and vanished. „Lead the way, Potter!“ Voldemort told him. Harry sighed inwardly, but did as he was told.
As they reached the Fat Lady, the portrait paled and started screaming. Harry tried to calm her down, but to no avail. Voldemort shoved him to the side: „Be quiet you ugly woman!“ He snared. The Fat Lady quieted down immediately. Voldemort didn’t give her an explanation and just said the pass word. Harry gave her an apologetic smile and followed quickly.
The common room felt homey as ever. The small fire in the fireplace lit and warmed the room. „Gryffindor’s have no taste.“ Voldemort said before snapping his fingers. A tiny house elf appeared. „Bring me clothes for at least one week and my toiletries,“ he commended. With a deep bow the little creature disappeared again. It returned immediately: „Where shall Timmy bring your trunk?“ The elf inquired. „Bring it to the dorms.“ Voldemort waved it away. With another pop it was gone.
He really needed his stuff, too. He wasn’t sure if it would work, but he tried to call Dobby. „Mr. Harry Potter, sir. Dobby is so glad to meet you again!“ The elf squeaked. „What can Dobby do for Mr. Harry Potter, Sir?“ „I really need my school trunk. It is still at the Dursleys. Can you pick it up for me? And there are some things hidden under my bed, also.“ Dobby nodded eagerly. „ And please don’t be too loud. Or the Dursleys will get mad.“ „Mr. Harry Potter, Sir, Dobby will not disappoint you!“ And with another nod he was gone.
A tapping on the window had Harry looking up. A white owl was hovering there. Harry was glad to see Hedwig. Even if he didn’t know who had freed her. He let her in and saw a crumbled piece of paper in her claws. She dropped the paper in Harry’s outstretched hands. Harry went to one of the cushioned chairs, sitting down. He noticed Voldemort staring into the flames, apparently deep in thoughts and ignoring him. He shrugged his shoulders and unfolded the letter. To his surprise it was Dudley’s handwriting:

„ Hey Harry,
I don’t know where you are, but I hope you are safe and that your owl will find you. I am writing, because I saw how my father beat you up. I don’t know since when he did that to you. I am very sorry. I was a lousy cousin. Please forgive me! You know, I am very angry at him. Since then I haven’t spoken one word to him. Please accept my apology.
Your cousin Dudley“
Harry blinked. That day had become even crazier. Dudley never wrote, at least not him. But there it was, a letter from Dudley and he even asked for a reply. At that moment Dobby popped in again. „Shall Dobby bring your trunk to your dorm?“ He asked. „Yes, please, but I need a quill and some parchment first. “ Dobby snipped his fingers and in front of Harry lay all he needed to write a letter. Voldemort had started to write as well, using his house elf as a deliverer. Harry mused that he wrote down orders for his Death Eaters. Harry turned to his parchment:
„Dear Dudley,
Thank you for freeing my owl Hedwig. I am fine and currently at Hogwarts. I didn’t plan on it but something came up. I am happy that you wrote me and thank you for your apology. I would like to stay in contact with you. Enjoy the rest of your holidays.
Your cousin Harry. “
He gave Hedwig the new letter and she flew off. Harry went over to lay in front of the fireplace, closing his eyes and enjoying the heat. He must have dozed off, because when he awoke by an annoyed „Potter!“ It was already dark outside. „We will go up to the dorms. I am tired. And this color scheme hurts my eyes.“
Harry led the way again. He climbed up the stairs and open the fifth boy’s dormitory door. Voldemort’s trunk occupied Harry’s bed. „Usually this one is my bed. But you can have it if you want.“ He pointed to the bed under the window. Voldemort made a face of disgust and with a flick of his wand he floated his trunk over to the next bed. Harry started to change into his pajama pants, using his upper body and not noticing that Voldemort observed him. Dudley’s old pajama, from two years ago, was still too big. He heaved the trunk down onto the floor. After that he crawled under his blanket.
„Now Tom, where do you want to sleep?“ The dark wizard snared at him, but then he came over. Harry made space for his enemy. He shivered at the proximity, but at the same time his body relaxed. Since they had not only stay apart as far as possible at Slytherin Manor, but also had shared the bed in the hospital wing, Harry noticed now, how much energy and magic the bond needed. So while is mind was anxious, his body was at ease. Voldemort settled down, pulling the blanket up again. To Harrys shock Voldemort wore only underpants as he climbed into bed. His skin was deathly cold. It didn’t feel like the skin of a human at all, more like the scales of a snake. They lay back to back. So at least Harry hadn’t to look at Voldemort’s face. He tried to calm down. By now he should know, that Voldemort wouldn’t kill him. His mind knew it, but not his heart. He closed his eyes in the hope it would help to ignore the man’s breathing, but it wasn't helping. The notion to stay all alone with Voldemort in one room and moreover, sharing a bed was disturbing.
XXX
Voldemort laid in the dark of Gryffindor Tower, listening to Potters breathing. It had been a nightmare to wake up next to his nemesis in one bed, and that old fool of an headmaster twinkling down on him. Severus had been subdued. This wasn’t any surprise, for he was with his lord at his workplace. He only hoped that the headmasters library would provide a solutions. He don’t was afraid, that the headmaster would try to defeat him when the bond was broken. The old coot wasn’t as strong as him. he may not get a chance to kill Harry Potter, but he wasn’t in any danger, either. Hogwarts hadn’t changed since his school days, but he didn’t feel at home anymore. But how dared Dumbledore to put him into Gryffindor tower? Ever since, the fool had a bad humor. Gryffindor Tower was even more obnoxious as he had thought. Everywhere reds and golds, fluffy chairs and even fluffier carpets. How could anybody stand it? But the boy was as obnoxious as his house. So it fitted. He turned on his back and thought about the last couple of days. Since Severus treatment of the boy the pain in his bag had nearly gone away. He didn’t need to know who had hurt that curs of a boy. The only thing that mattered was that he, Lord Voldemort felt better. If that boy hadn’t been bound to him, he would rejoice in the boys pains, but as it was, he couldn’t enjoy it. He hated being bound. He would endure this situation. And after he was free again, he would continue with his plans to take over the wizarding world.
XXX
Harry hadn’t slept at all. He was glad that Voldemort was an early riser, so he hadn’t to lay next to him any longer than necessary. The dark wizard ignored him and Harry happily did the same. They went down to breakfast in silence. There was only one big table in the Great Hall. Harry spotted not only Dumbledore and Snape, but McGonagall, Hagrid, Flitwick and even Trelawney too. Harry had the feeling that this wouldn’t be a quiet breakfast. He sat down across from Hagrid. „’morning Harry. How was your night?“ The giant asked. „Not so great. I couldn’t sleep much.“ „You will pull through. You always have. And if you need help we are all here for you.“ He said encouraging. Harry smiled softly, but thankfully.
He loaded his plate with bacon and eggs and started eating. To his amusement Voldemort and Dumbledore were engaged in a staring match. „Harry!“ The voice of Trelawney called from the other end of the table. Harry sight and turned to her.
„I have seen your future! There is darkness coming, but there is also a chance of light in the end! But first you have to suffer!“ Harry rolled his eyes. The same nonsense as every year. But he politely nodded and said: „Thank you for the warning, Professor.“
He ate for a while, then asked: „Why are you all here? Haven’t you holidays, too?“ „Yes, Mr. Potter, we have, but we all want to help you. There are just to many books for only four pairs of eyes.“ McGonagall answered. „Thank you, Professor.“ Harry replied. „It’s no problem at all, Mr. Potter,“ the little professor Flitwick squeaked.
At this moment the doors to the Great Hall burst open. „Sirius! Remus!“ Harry jumped up. He ran towards them, until a sudden pain in his heart stopped him. „Potter, come back immediately!“ Voldemort all but shouted. His Godfather and Remus had rushed to his site, steadying the boy on his way back. As soon as he stood next to Voldemort again, the pain subsided. „You!“ Sirius hissed and turned to Voldemort. „What have you done this time?“ „I haven’t done anything!“ Voldemort said with his coldest Death Eater voice. But Sirius wasn’t impressed: „I already know that you can’t do anything right now. Because without our help you will never be free of Harry again. So I will take this chance to give you a piece of my mind!“ „Sirius don’t do something stupid!“ Remus tried to pull his friend away from the most feared wizard. But Sirius yanked his arm free. „I don’t care Remus!“
He turned to Voldemort once again: „You bastard! Aren’t you ashamed of yourself? Going around killing not only witches and wizards, but also little boys? And not even succeeding? Without you we wouldn’t be in this mess! Without you Harry wouldn’t have to suffer again! Not even one year could you give him to rest this time!“ Voldemort was seething: „Don’t dare to speak to me you filthy Blood traitor!“ Voldemort had his wand out in a split of a second. „Sirius calm down and Tom put your wand away. We are all allies right now!“ Dumbledore clapped his hands. Sirius grumbled something under his breath, but said nothing more. Even Tom obliged. Harry pulled his godfather down onto a stool next to him. Remus followed them.
„So, Harry can you give us some more information? We only know that you need help because you were bound to Voldemort.“ Harry nodded. „I was at the Dursley’s when he came after me. We fought but none of our spells hit. At one point we attacked at the same time and our wands connected again.“ Voldemort hissed angrily. „It was different from the usual. A chain of light connected our wands and wrapped around us. Than Dumbledore came. But Voldemort was to quick and apparated us.“ Remus sight sorrowful. „And how is it now? “ Sirius asked. „We still can’t attack each other and when one of us is badly injured the other feels it, too. We also cannot stay far apart. We even have to sleep in one bed.“ Harry said.
„If he dares to lay a finger on you there will be hell to pay!“ Sirius declared. „Pleas, Siri, stay calm. I already told you that he can’t hurt me right now and if you hurt him it will only hurt me as well. Will you promise me not to do anything?“ Sirius glared at the man to Harrys left, but mumbled: „I’ll promise.“ „Thank you!“ Harry hugged his godfather. The rest of breakfast was a silent affair.
When the last one lay down his fork Dumbledore stood up and clapped his hands. „Now everybody, I would suggest that me all go to the library. I will open the forbidden section as well. „At this point he turned to Harry: „You may also do your research in the forbidden section. We all know that you can handle those dangerous books. “Harry blushed a bright red and Sirius snickered. They stood up and immediately their plates vanished. Dumbledore let the way but the other gave Harry and expecting look. „Sorry cub, please go and follow Dumbledore.“ Harry sighed: „You know, he can’t do anything right now. You are safe.“ „Yeah we know, but it’s still Voldemort. So just go and we will follow right behind you.“ Sirius grinned sheepishly.
The Dark Lord snickered: „Have your friends all left you?“ „We will never leave Harry, but he will be even saver when we can watch you from the close,“ Remus sighed, glaring daggers at the man and even McGonagall nodded approvingly. Harry, trying to avoid a second confrontation and started to follow the headmaster, so that Voldemort had to follow him. Luckily Voldemort didn’t fancy another round of hurting and went after Harry.
It was odd to have the whole Hogwarts library for themselves. Only Hagrid and Trelawney stayed in the main section, whilst everyone else went to the normally forbidden section. „We should start with books about Priori incantatem, bindings but also rituals,“ Harry didn’t know how the headmasters eyes could twinkle so merrily at such a time. But on the other hand it just fitted Dumbledore’s crazy humor to see his enemy helplessly bound to a boy. „Please, Professor McGonagall, have an eye on our little study group. Meanwhile I will make use of the founders library.“
Harry would have liked to ask Dumbledore where the founder’s library was, but with Voldemort next to him it wouldn’t be a wise question. „Headmaster,“ Snape said, pulling a long parchment out of his pocket „This is a list with all the spells and potions we already tried out.“ Dumbledore scanned the list and nodded: „Your Death Eaters were quite elaborate, at least in the area of the Dark Arts. We won’t have to cover it much more. This is fortunate, because Hogwarts has not much literature with dark spells.“ „Of course they were thoroughly, I ordered them,“ Voldemort snared. Dumbledore multiplied the list and gave everyone an copy. As soon as the headmaster had slid out of the room, they went to work.
„Where do you want to start?“ Harry asked, trying not to agitate the dark wizard. „Let’s start with a book on Priori incantatem. Maybe there is something about accidents in connection with this spell,“ Voldemort answered. They search for the right shelfs and started piling books on a small desk. There weren’t many, so. Harry soon realized, that there wasn’t much know about Priori incantatem and even less about incidents, where the spell had gone wrong.
He already knew that two brother wands where required to start the phenomenon. It seemed that brother wands were fairly rare. They soon switched to bounding’s. Everything Harry read on this second topic made him more and more depressive. There were two kinds of bounding’s. The light bounding’s and the dark ones. The light bounding where mainly entered by a person out of his free will. They were used by close friends, siblings ore lovers. The only light bounding that were not entered freely was the so called Soul Bond. It occurred to lovers, who were destined to be together since their birth. There were only a very few Soul Bond in the history. Because it was rare that Soul Mates were born and even if that happened, they had still to find each other.
The most famous dark bonds were the Slave Bonds. These things were really sickening. It wasn’t necessary that the future slave gave his consent. They were bound through blood and other bodily fluids and had never a chance of escaping. A dark Slave Bond forced the slave into obedience and even sex with his or her master. If they resisted the consequences were pain, insanity or even death.
Harry was shocked. He didn’t know if it would be worse to have some kind of a Marriage Bond or a Slave Bond with Voldemort. He only hoped that the bond would be reversible. At least up until now, neither him or the Dark Lord had the upper hand. Harry tried to ignore the thought of an unbreakable bond with him. He found some spells to examine the nature of a bond. He noted them down and put the parchment in his pocket.
When lunch neared, Remus came over to asked about Harrys progress: „Not much. I found some spells to examine a bond. Maybe they will help us, but I’m not sure.“ „I am sure they will be a big help,“ Remus tried to reassure him. „And even when not, we have only started researching today morning. Don’t give up yet.“ Harry sighed and rubbed over his eyes. He and Voldemort had kept silent the whole time. It was creepy to sit next to a man, who had tried to kill you five times. „Remus, Harry are you coming? It’s time for lunch!“ Sirius shouted from the door. „We are coming!“ Remus gave Harry a small smile and went after his friend. Harry turned to Voldemort: „Aren’t you hungry?“ Voldemort glared at him and stood up: „Don’t worry I won’t let you starve to death. Not until I’m sure it wouldn’t kill me, too“ „Don’t be too nice,“ Harry grumbled.
The teachers were waiting for them. They went back to the Great Hall, where food appeared as soon as they set down. Harry filled his plate with roast beef and mashed potatoes. Voldemort gave him a disgusted look, as he dug in. „Haven’t you any manners, Potter?“ „Not in the slightest,“ Snape snared. „Yeah, you know, I am so interested in your opinion,“ Harry commented between two bites. If possible the two men looked even more disgusted.
Dumbledore interrupted their bickering, as he came in: „Ah, I see you have all started. Please enjoy. “He set down, filling his plate, too. „So my boys, have you found out something?“ He asked and ignored the annoyed look of Professor McGonagall. They all shook their heads. „Well I wasn’t really successful, either.“ Dumbledore sighed. „Uhm, I might have found something,“ Harry announced. „What is it, my dear boy?“ The headmasters eyes started to twinkle again. „I found some spells to examine a bond. I don’t know, which one will be useful. So I wrote down all of them.“ He pulled the wrinkled note out of his pocket and pushed it to Dumbledore. „We will just have to try it out,“ Dumbledore said. „ I think these spells will be very useful. If we know, with which kind of bond we have to deal with, it will help in our research.“
„Where do we perform the spells?“ McGonagall asked. „I would suggest the infirmary,“ Snape suggested. „That’s a good idea,“ said Dumbledore. So they all went back to the hospital wing. Madam Pomfrey looked slightly annoyed with all these people in her rooms. „We won’t need long,“ Dumbledore assured her.
Voldemort sat down on a bed gracefully. „Potter, you should sit down as well. We don’t know what effects the spells will have on us.“ „Could they harm us?“ Harry asked. Voldemort made a face as if he had never seen such a silly person in his entire life. „We still don’t know if we have to deal with a regular bond ore a muddled one. So yes, it can have all kinds of effects.“ Harry’s stomach churned unpleasantly. „Are you two ready?“ Harry nodded. „Then I will start with the first spell.“ Dumbledore drew his wand and made a flowing gesture. There was a little flicker between Harry and Voldemort, but it was to fast gone. Dumbledore wrinkled his temple and studied the parchment again. „...maybe this one,“ the headmaster mumbled and started again. This time there was a prickling sensation in Harrys wand arm.
Next to Harry, Voldemort hissed some curses about the headmaster in parseltungue, not noticing or just ignoring that Harry could understand every word. Harry gave him a pointed look but the Dark Lord just glared back. „Tire the next one, or are you already so old, that you have fallen asleep on us?“ Voldemort snared. Dumbledore only smiled a little brighter and started with the third spell.
This time it was a success. The binding chain of magic appeared between them. It still wrapped tightly around their wands and upper bodies. It shimmered in a ghostly silver-gray, that reminded Harry of Priori incantatem and had a black spot in the middle. „That doesn’t look good,“ Sirius muttered. Remus gave him a shove in his ribs: „Be quiet, for once. Don’t take every hope from Harry!“ The werewolf commanded. „Indeed it looks quite binding,“ Dumbledore said.
„Why is there a black spot in the middle?“ McGonagall asked. Dumbledore stepped a bit closer to Harry and Voldemort. „Pleas, extended your wands, so I can have a better look.“ For once, even Voldemort just did as told. After a minute he stepped back again. „My boys, I think I might know the meaning of this dark spot.“ All eyes turned to him expectantly. „I believe, this is the spot where your two spells collided and triggered Priori incantatem. How it is, Priori is a Dark Arts phenomenon. But why it hadn’t disconnected after you pulled away, I still don’t know. We should concentrate research on how to break the bond and monitoring the bond, once a day.“ Dumbledore declared.
They decided to go back to the library. This time Sirius worked next to Harry. „I won’t let Remus talked me out of having an eye on you, again. I just can’t trust this bastard.“ The next days went on in the same pattern. They ate the meals together and researched in between. One day even Mad Eye Moody appeared. No one, not even Dumbledore knew how the man had find out, that Voldemort resided in Hogwarts. He followed Harry and Voldemort like a not very inconspicuous shadow. In the end, Dumbledore had to stop the man, because Voldemort looked with every day more agitated and like he would kill the former auror, soon.
Harry and Voldemort didn’t speak much to each other. They even established something like a routine for their nights together. They would change in their pajama bottoms, without looking at the other. Than Harry would climb into the bed and turn around. Only after, Voldemort would get into bed, as well.
Harry noted, that the Dark Lord commented nearly everything in parseltongue. His comments or curses were always very ill mannered, violent or even bloody. Sometimes Harry asked himself, if his enemy didn’t know about his own parseltongue abilities. He decided to keep his secret, because it wouldn’t be always so harmonic between them. Harry really was annoyed with his constant companion.
Voldemort refused to spend the evenings with Harrys godfather and Remus. He was his once-in-a-lifetime chance to spend nearly the whole holidays with Sirius and Remus and he couldn’t spend much time with them. On top of that, they made only little progress with their research. The spells they found were either too weak or were dark rituals, which required an enormous amount of blood and often the death of one party. So they hadn’t tried anything yet. At least the bond hadn’t changed up until now.
