Ok, the entire story was great. As I said before, you made me like a plot point, which in theory I don't like, so that shows the, er, I don't know, talent in the story. I'm not very good at expressing myself. :p

The dream was good, and how you gave all the elements meanings, rather that just having it some random thing with no meaning.

I correct my comment in the last review about Blaise and the slug club.

So, yeah, good story. =)

Author's Response: I'm glad I convinced you to like my plot even though you didn't agree with it. I love dreams so I'm really happy you thought I got it right.
Thanks once more.

Good chapter. I loved Draco's trouble adjusting to the muggle train, and then his panic attack. For the situations the HP characters are put in they all seem to have unordinarily level heads, so its good to see some of them get a bit fearful.

You balanced the keeping up of Dracos facade well with his thoughts. The only canon issue I had was, doesn't Blaise go off to the Slug Club. It might be in there and I just missed it, so I may be wrong.



Author's Response: I've gone through a couple panic attacks of my own and while writing this chapter I began to think of how Draco would react if he had one. Plus, like you, I was always bothered with Harry and Hermione constantly having level heads. One of the reasons why I find Ron so much easier to relate to is because he freaks out.
Ahh...Blaise. Read the next chapter, and he'll be off.
Thanks!

Ah, that explains it. It makes more sense now. I actually feel sorry for Draco in this chapter as it really is a suicide mission.

Great chapter. =)

Author's Response: I'm glad it helped you better understand the situation.

Its rather ironic that I happen to be listening to Nirvana as I read your chapter. =)

But on to the review, well I'm getting into this and enjoying it. I'm glad you took it from Draco's POV as I have always thought there was more to him than meets the eye. Perhaps we disagree on what it is, but I'm willing to leave that aside and enjoy the story, which I am doing.

So yeah, good work in managing to make me enjoy a story in which I don't agree with the main plot. =)

Author's Response: Ahhh...I love Nirvana!
I wanted to show more of the insides of Draco's thoughts. There's so much about him that people don't get to see since the HP series is told from Harry's perspective.
Anyways, thanks again!

More and more I'm enjoying this. Narcissa is well characterised and well, I'm well, getting more interested in the story. I'm glad you showed Malfoys owl results, as that was one of the things I was interested in in the books. (Yep, I'm weird :p).

So yeah, great story. =)

Author's Response: Ahhh yes, Narcissa is one of my favorite characters that I've written in this story so far. Obviously, Malfoy's owl results aren't the same as they are in the HP series, but I wanted him to have the same results as Hermione.
Thanks again!

To be honest, I don't exactly agree with the premise that Draco was abused, but leaving that aside, I think this seems like a good story so far. I've never read a Draco/OC before, so I'm intrigued, and the OC sounds interesting.

Author's Response: It's all right. I don't exactly think this is what happened in Draco's life, but I was thinking about it one night and I started wondering how would that affect Draco and all these other things.
Anyways, thanks!

Sorry I don't have much to say, but another good chapter :)
Do you know how long the story is going to be? I was just wondering...


Author's Response: Yey! You liked it!
This story is gonna go over the span of HBP and maybe even more. I'm not quite sure when I'm going to end it, there might be a sequel.
Anyways, it's novel length so it's going to be pretty long.
Thanks for the review!

O_o I like the beginning, I think it's off to a good start.
Hmmm, I like how you put out all the secrets right in the beginning, that was cool :)
Umm I really don't have much to say, except I like the story.
If you keep writing than I will keep reviewing.

Author's Response: Thansk for the review!

I am glad that you explained the meaning of the dream because I was confused by that

Good chapter. I liked it.Couple of grammatical errors but still

Author's Response: I know, I know...I'm not that great at grammar. But thanks!

FANTASTIC!

Even though i always thought of something like this about Draco i never seen a stories that could really describe it so well as you did, it really captivated and intrigued me.

Author's Response: Thanks for the review!

Wow, you thought a lot about that dream. I could kind of pick up what he was feeling, but not all of the things, like the forest, people, and blood rain and Hermione's face (okay maybe not everything!), so thanks for going deeper into that at the end of the chapter. Wow. Thats all I can say. You must have thought about how to structure that dream for ages! And it payed off. Dreams really sum up a person don't they?

I loved the Kayla/Draco moment. It was really nice. Aw. Kayla is really sweet, I like her. She is very well written, being nervous and shy. Opposites attract! Or not so opposites as the case may be.

The mentions from book 6 were also good, it made this story seem less AU! Not that AU is a bad thing, but it just made it seem more real, which is what all authors want to do, right?

I can't wait for more! Can you PM me on the forum when your next chapter is up?

Keep writing!

Author's Response: Oh yeah, the dream was a really big deal for me. In my first few stories, all the dreams came out so straightforward and logical but ending with a cliffhanger. And they usually told the future.
But REALLY. How many dreams tell the future and cut off before you discover what it is you need to know?
Anyways, we're making dream boxes in art class and my teacher was talking about all these dreams he was having. And I started thinking about it (I was writing this chapter at the time) and I realized that dreams hardly EVER make sense.
So I came up with that. I posted up stuff on the forums asking if it was okay, what people thought about it, and all of the jazz.
Kayla and Draco...ah yes. Don't worry, there'll be more of them to come.
This story isn't really AU I guess. I'm following the plot of HBP, only I'm telling the story from Draco's POV.
How interesting would the Harry Potter books be if they were told from Draco's POV? Or Neville's? Or Hermione's? Or Ron's? Or Dumbledore's?
Don't you think the story would come out incredibly different yet still the same?
Anyways, I will PM you when the next chapter is posted.

Ah, I forgot to review this chapter *smacks head*

This was really good. Totally different to how I expected it in the book. I always thought Draco would be in direct contact with Voldemort, but then again...if he didn't have the mark...interesting idea! Well explained!

I really liked the end of the chapter, it was very mysterious and conclusive of the scene. It summed up Draco's mind, or anyones mind really.

Can't wait for more, keep it up!

Author's Response: Thank you so much. I'm glad you like my story so much!

This was great, as usual! The American girl was a good excuse for Draco to let out his anger, so that was a nice addition. So thanks for that. It was a good idea.

Fred and George were another high of this chapter, they were just like the books, funny and they finnished each others sentances. I thought it was J. K. Rowling writing them! Seriously! Good work!

I really liked this chapter, sorry I don't have much more to say :) Keep it up!

Author's Response: I'm glad you thought so! I wanted someone for Draco to vent out at before he got on the train.
And I'm flattered you thought Fred and George sounded like JK was writing them. I feel really comfortable when I write their characters -- though I don't do it often.
Thanks for the review!

Oooh yay. I loved this chapter. Best yet! The whole running away thing was very realistic for Draco's character, and it was fast passed but not to rushed. I loved the mention of Nirvana too! They rock.

Bitty was very good in this chapter too, she was very caring in a friend way, yet house elf-ish. So good work for that.

Lucius was well written too. He was exactly right for the way Draco thought of him. The whole "great death eater" thing was good, it was like he is expecting Draco to be someone he is not and Draco just thinks he is putting him down all the time, when really he is quite impressed. Sorry if that doesn't make sense...

Anyway great work, keep it up!

Author's Response: I'm glad you thought so! Thanks for the review and I hope you like the other chapters as well.

Wow, this is very good! It was cool how you got to see Draco's OWL results, I always wondered what he got. It was good how you copied the answer sheet from the book, I have written out what Harry got for his OWL's (for fun!) and it took ages! So well done for that. Very professional!

I really love Bitty, shes cool. Its kind of odd, because Draco acted like he was mean to Dobby, but maybe he was nice to him after all, if he was like the boy in this story...!

Awesome story, I wonder whats going to happen in the next chapter...? I can't wait until he gets back to Hogwarts. Hes just like Harry, Hogwarts is his real home :)

Author's Response: His grades aren't completely Canon...another reader pointed out that he messed up in one of his exams when Harry did something. But I wanted to do this so that he recieved the same marks as Hermione.
But...we never SAW Draco with Dobby, did we? We saw Lucius with Dobby, we saw Harry with Dobby, we saw the other House Elves with Dobby...but Draco and Dobby never interact.
Makes you wonder, doesn't it?
