Author's Response: Thank you!

Will there be a happy ending for Draco and Hermione? Or any ending at all?

Wow, what a cliffhanger! Aww...Poor Draco. I can't believe he broke. :( Please keep updating, I can't wait to read to your next chapter.

Author's Response: Next Chapter is up!

Well it is a total cliffhanger and the ending will amaze you.

I hate cliff hangers. Especially when the story is this good.
I'm guessing the blond is Luna.
Can I just say, that I'm really annoyed with Draco right now. I know the pain was really bad and he couldn't think straight but that doesn't mean that I wouldn't slap him across the face. And Pansy... well she might as well say her prayers because she's not waking up alive tomorrow.

When I saw that this had been updated, I was like 'YES!' really loudly and my whole house just went silent.
Please please please please please please update
really really really quickly. Please?
10/10

Author's Response: Hello,

Sorry it's been a crazy few months at work.

I can neither confirm nor deny the identity of the mysterious blonde.

Nor can I confirm or deny the Dark Balances actions from the information recieved.

But the ending will blow your mind!

Awesome, update soon! =]

Author's Response: Updates on the way! The story id fast reaching its conclusion, but will it be a Draco/Hermione or a Ron/Hermione?

Love Pepper

Wow exciting! Thanks :)

Author's Response: Wait til the next chapter! (If I can get it past the validators). Its darker, action packed and has you holding your breath til the very last second.

Love it! please update soon!

Author's Response: Updates on the way and it is going to be awesome.

Draco is in a forest with pursuers right on his trail. How will he get out of this one?

Am I the only one who can hear the dramatic music in the backround?
I can see that you've put a lot of effort into this with the secret organisation 'The Dark Balance' and all the nic names.
You explain everything so well, I can easily visualise everything in my mind.

Author's Response: Thank you.

Is now the time to confess that I made up the name about 10 seconds before typing it? I tend to do my best work on the fly instead of pondering over it.

Umbra = darkness or shadow (I think) in latin and
Nightshade = deadly flower. Pansy is a flower name and a vengeful girl.

Glad you are enjoying it so much and hopefully it will be wrapped up in the next few chapters.

I love your quick updates! You've got talent in this area.. definitely know how to keep a reader wanting more. Can't wait for the next chapter. :)

Author's Response: Next chapter up soon, must get validated first!

I've almost finished writing it and the ending is one you won't believe.

AW I want Draco to come back to her and just tell her all those things Hermione wanted to hear :( so depressing for 'Mione. Hope stuff works out between Draco and Hermione, I really hope Hermione doesn't leave Draco for Ron, I disgust Ron :/

Author's Response: Well you'll just have to keep reading to find out!

Ron was Hermione's first love and you never quite get over them. And now he and Hermione are living together as a couple. Was this all part of Draco's plan?

Love Pepper

This is going so good... any idea when the next chapter will be up? I can hardly wait. I love your stories.

Author's Response: Thank you! I'm currently snowed under at work and I have run out of inspiration, but I know where its going and as soon as I get time, I'll be back into it.

Love Pepper

I really like this story. I hope they don't do anything nasty to Draco. I really hope Hermione realises soon that Draco loves her

Author's Response: You'll just have to wait and see. I wrote and posted chapter 9 last night so you'll get to see it soon.

As weird as this sounds, I relish writing as bad / evil characters. The danger, the excitement, the complete lack of restraint or morals... so exciting!

Love Pepper

 Report Review

Oh no! Oh no! Oh no! Oh no! Oh no!
I can definetly imagine Scorpius opening this in fifteen years. I'm getting seriously scared now. This story is really intriguing, it makes you feel a heap of emotions all at once!

Author's Response: Thank you!

You would possibly be my most favorite and consistant reviewer. With my stories I want it to be more than a simple story, I want it to have heart and realism.

As soon as I finish my 2 current projects (this one and the C & C story collection) I'm going to create a story about me as an OC (not a fan girl one, a real one) and use my Luna Lovegood cross over to do it.

(Luna? What? Wait and see.)

Love Pepper

 Report Review

Oh the suspense! This made me tear up a little, poor Draco :-(

Author's Response: Poor Draco, indeed. Knowing that he might (probably) never see his family again would be heartbreaking. But he knows that Hermione could find happiness with Ron, he's planned on it.

Love Pepper

ohnoohnoohno DD: don't let draco die!! that would be so sadd :( and besides, he knows where hermione is, but with the fidelus charm, nobody can get in. unless ron betrays them, which i don't think he will.
ackkk just let ginny give the letter to hermione soon, so that she won't be all sad and depressed all the time!
i really liked the thing where he was called "Granger" in the muggle world XD that was very creative :)
i also like how pansy is working with Black. but i think you should make her a bit more.flirtatious with draco?? it would seem like her, to try to win him back but he refuses. :D
can't wait for your next update!! :)

Author's Response: I think you'll be pleasantly surprised by what I have planned in my next chapter. I also thought it was cute and sweet that he is "Granger" in the muggle world. I hope the letters reach Hermione and Scorpius.

Love Pepper

 Report Review

aww :'( so sadd.
i hope she realizes that draco still loves her, didn't he write that in his note to her?!?!
but i'm also glad you took the ron/hermione twist too, i like that, but i hope it still ends up dramione :)
arggh she should have taken the picture of draco, she's smart enough to realize that her favorite books were missing because draco took them!!
maybe you can let her return to the house later and see that draco's favorite picture is gone?? and then let her take the pic :P
can't wait to read the next chapter!! :D

Author's Response: It would be unsafe for her to return home as it is being watched and the floo network is down.
And maybe she knows Draco loves her but doesn't feel it. (And believe me there is a big difference between the two.)

She is lost, scared, confused and she doesn't know what to do. Is this all part of some greater plan?

Love Pepper

 Report Review

Uh oh, my fears have been confirmed; Ron and Hermione spending time alone is not a good thing, repeat:
NOT GOOD!!!
Love this story, it stays very realistic. Hermione definetly wouldn't be able to resist Ron. Update quickly!

Author's Response: Your first love never really dies or goes away, part of it will always be inside you and you never forget it. Unfortunately Hermione's first love is the person she is locked away with until all this drama gets solved.

I will update as soon as I write it!

Love Pepper

Very good so far! Looking forward to your next update! :) 10/10

Author's Response: Might take awhile, I need to write the next chapter! But this one should be action packed and or contain a few close calls.

omg ! a sequel to choices and chances my fav story? thank you :'D

Author's Response: You are more than welcome. You're not the only one who can't give up the world of "Choices and Chances". I want more and luckily I'm in the position to create more!

Sequels! Spin Offs! Companion Pieces! Wild and crazy Plot Bunnies!

Keep your eyes open!

Love Pepper

I am enjoying this story as much as "Choices and Chances". You have created a world that the reader wants more of! I know I'll be I sorry to see the end of this sequel, and will revisit it often. There are only a few more stories on the site that I feel so intense about. Looking forward to your next update.

Author's Response: I know, I am wrapped up in the world of "Choices and Chances" and as such I now write almost everything of mine with that world in mind.

There will be Sequels, Spin Offs and Companion Pieces for this world and I hope you enjoy them.

Love Pepper

 Report Review

awww :'( i missed it when they were together so much!! they don't deserve this. and ron should honestly get over it, because hermione loves draco (even though she doesn't show it sometimes) and nothing can change that. i hope she doesn't worry too much for draco and scorpius...that would be bad for her. and i hope she doesn't drown herself in self-pity either, but it sounds like something she would do.
OH! I have a good idea--you can make hermione pregnant, that would be a nice twist in the plot >:) just a suggestion :D and you could also make ron try to get her back :P
i wonder how ginny's going to cope with two james in the house XD this will get complicated...
and draco...are the death eaters coming for him, like he saw in the foe ball, or was that from far away?
please update soon!! i want to have at least some clarification and action, can't wait! :)

Author's Response: Ahh, so many questions, but will you find the answers in future chapters?

Scorpius is going to be disguised as Albus, not James (they are closer in age, Scorpius being 3 months old, Albus 1 month old.)

Hermione has issues she needs to deal with as does Draco before they can be what they were again, and then there is the whole dark forces thing.

Will there be a happy ending?

I'm getting kind of nervous now. But I like dark stories so I'm really enjoying this. You've been updating really quickly lately which is AWESOME! Keep up the good work!

Author's Response: I'll try, but I might need to rely on the forums when I get stuck. How will Hermione react? Is Draco in danger? I'm suddenly getting visions of muggle London and a forest. Thank you!

Update soon! Please!

Author's Response: I will! I just need to write it all out (between working 6 days a week and recovering from injury). But it is going to be exciting and dark and . heartbreaking.

Pepper... are u going to continue this story, because i like it the way it go... I hope u do
best regards

Author's Response: It is going to continue, I have the plot in mind, it's just the writing it that is slowing me down.

I also have a series of short stories based in the "Choices and Chances" world to come out soon.
