He did it. He finally defeated Voldemort-he completed his destiny. At least, until Fate has other plans. With Voldemort gone and Hogwarts thriving under Dumbledore's reign, Harry can't help but feel incomplete. His friends said that it was living in Grimmauld Place without Sirius, that he just missed his godfather, but Harry knew better. To make matters worse, Harry's almost positive he's having a psychotic break, hearing the voices of the four Hogwarts founders. Teetering on the edge of insanity, Harry turns to the one place he won't be judged-the dark arts.
Join Harry in his journey to navigate politics, the dark arts, his psychosis, the betrayal of friends, and the formation of new friends.

Hold On - Dramione
When everything seems to be falling apart, sometimes all you can do is hold on. Hold onto what, is the question though. What do you hold onto when the darkness that is the Dark Lord is snuffing out the light and any hope of the Wizarding World being free? For Draco Malfoy, who is seemingly surrounded by darkness, he's holding onto the one person who might just be smart enough to help him kill Lord Voldemort and finally end this war...Hermione Granger. It's an absolute long shot, a total Hail Mary, and as much as they both hate each other, they can't deny that they need each other's help. It should be simple, right? He feeds her information to help gather and destroy Horcruxes, no one finds out about them, Voldemort dies and the war is won. But nothing is ever that simple, especially in the midst of the darkest and deadliest war in history. A war where they are both on different sides. A war where they can do nothing but hold on. You might want to hold on for this one. (Deathly Hallows 1 & 2) (A/N: Description is definitely a work in progress, I promise the story is better than I make it sound. Please don't plagiarise. I hope you enjoy it.) (Disclaimer: I don't own any of the characters. I only own any original scenes and dialogue I have written. I also don't own the cover picture.
