Before they knew it they were back in school. Harry had given his parents the schedule to games but hasn't forgiven them yet. That was going to take a while.

"So, how was your break? Mine was good." Blaise asked.

"Good, Draco?" Daphne asked.

"Good, Harry?" Draco asked.

"Good, spent most of the time with Draco or Daphne. Took lordship the day after we left. So now I'm Lord Potter." he said.

"Good, you're going to be better than your dad." Blaise said.

"Yeah, my plan is for right now, get John to learn how to use money like an adult for when he gets older. I made him his own account and gave him 100,00 gallons. My parents actually thought it was a good idea. He uses a lot of money for no reason and if he's going to become Lord Black when Sirius dies he is gonna be on his own. I'm only letting my parents use the family vault so they can stop spoiling the brat. They agree with that to and consider themselves lucky I didn't make them their own account to. Dad said I'm a much better lord than him and my grandparents would be proud of me."

"It sounds like you are and you're only fifteen!" Draco said.

"Did you give them the schedule like Sirius and Remus?" Aden asked.

"Yeah, I'm not going to forgive them for a long time. But I have a heart." he said.

After a while they split up and went to bed. Astoria had already been to bed.

The next day they were on their way to potions and Harry had his hand in a fist fighting the want to rub his scar.

"Harry? You ok?" Blaise asked.

"Huh? Oh, yeah I just have a headache." he said.

None of them were convinced but let it slide.

When they got to potions and sat down Harry still had trouble fighting the pain.

When Snape got in he noticed and was curious but had an idea.

"Potter, could you see me in my office while Ms. Greengrass starts the potion?"

Harry stood up and went to his office.

"You wished to see me sir?" he said wincing.

"How long has your scar been burning?"

"All morning sir. My hand is fighting the want to rub it but since we're the only people that know I don't want to make them suspicious. I think Dumbledore is starting to though. I see him looking at me and trying to use legilimancy but was shocked and confused about how I learned occlumency." he said.

"Well then, perhaps he's finally realizing who the chosen one is."

"Hopefully he'll realize soon and I can stop hiding it." he said giving in and rubbing his scar.

"Hopefully. Do you still hear what the Dark Lord is doing when you have a vision?"

"Yes, I can't see them but I can hear them."

Snape nodded. "Alright, I would give you a pain killer potion but obviously it doesn't work."

"It's alright sir. I'm starting to want to tell Daphne, Draco, Aden, Astoria, Blaise and Theo though. They keep asking me why my head hurts when they see me wince or something."

"What do you tell them?"

"I have a headache, stomachache, things like that. But they're starting to stop believing me and will always say 'Why don't you go to Madam Pomfrey?'"

"Just tell them later during break or something. The Dark Lord is never going to give up on getting that prophecy." Snape said shaking his head.

"What prophecy is it? When I was little I heard dad talking to mum about it and saying 'Don't worry, Harry, Neville and John will be fine.' Why does it involve us two instead of three now? Is it why Bellatrix Lastrange went after Longbottom's parents and Voldemort went after us?"

Snape sighed. "It does only involve you two, but it's up to your parents and Dumbledore to decide when you are ready. Like I told you before, I only heard the beginning. And if Dumbledore doesn't figure it out I'm telling him who it truly is."

"I was just thinking the same thing. What is it?"

Snape had heard the whole thing from Dumbledore so he looked at Harry knowing he was old enough.

"The one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord approaches... Born to those who have thrice defied him, born as the seventh month dies... and the Dark Lord will mark him as his equal, but he will have power the Dark Lord knows not... and either must die at the hand of the other for neither can live while the other survives... The one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord will be born as the seventh month dies..."

Harry stood there quietly.

"I won't tell anyone else the prophecy sir." he said.

Snape nodded.

"Alright, let's get back to class before they start getting suspicious."

So they left the room and Harry started to help Daphne with the potion.

"I have something to tell you guys, Astoria and Aden after lunch." Harry said.

They were confused but nodded.

Before they knew it they were sitting in Slytherin common room.

"Alright, what is it? What have you been hiding from us for five and three years?" Astoria asked.

"I need you all to keep this quiet, a magical oath." Harry said.

He had used a silence charm incase anyone else came.

They were all surprised but nodded and took out their wand.

"I, Daphne Greengrass, Astoria Greengrass, Aden Malfoy, Theo Nott, Draco Malfoy, Blaise Zabini swear on my magic to keep what Harry says quiet. So mote it be." they said together.

"Good. I, Harry James Potter, swear on my magic that what I say is true. So mote it be." he said.

"Alright, now spit it out." Daphne said.

"On Halloween 1981, I was the one that defeated Voldemort, not John. I'm more powerful than him and Voldemort could feel it. So he started to point his wand in front of me while I went in front of John to protect him. After I was hit by it and protecting him I used a lot of power and lost conciseness from exhaustion. When Dumbledore, Sirius, Remus and dad got upstairs they saw John still crying so they focused on him. Dumbledore never looked at me to check. He thought I was asleep. The scar John got was from part of the ceiling falling down and got him." he explained.

"Who else knows?" Draco asked.

"Me, Voldemort, Snape and his Death Eaters. I don't know why you're parents didn't tell any of the ones on his side. On the first meeting Snape was shocked but swore to keep it quiet. When I started to have those dreams they were really visions. I have a connection with him which is why I was with Snape every few days for months. He was teaching me occlumency. I can still hear what is going on though."

They all sat there in shock.

"Why didn't you tell us? Especially me!" Daphne said.

"I don't know. I was worried you would either leave me or force me to tell Dumbledore."

"We would never leave you mate." Theo said.

"He's right Harry. You're like a Greengrass to our family." Astoria said.

He smiled.

"Snape said if Dumbledore doesn't realize soon he's going to tell him."

"Good, how long does he have?" Aden asked.

"Until May. So he has about three weeks."

"I wonder if he's going to make it." Blaise said.

"I very highly doubt he will." Aden said.

"Probably." Astoria said.

After that they went to Charms and potions.
