Dark Lord's Plan

Summary:

At the start of the 5th year Harry feels a bit not himself and start to look for allies in Slytherin and outside Hogwarts. He wrote a letter to Mrs. Delacour and she surprisingly fast replied and offered a way out of Umbridge's control and the safety plan for Sirius. Harry, using information that she provided, contacted Draco Malfoy and started building a weird beneficial friendship with him, at the same time obsessing with a man from his dreams he can't quite recognize. But he feels very familiar. What are the goals of Voldemort after resurrection? And what does Harry want to do about them?

Notes:

It is my first fanfiction in a very long time. I hope to depict a good slow burn between Harry and Dark Lord after resurrection.

Chapter 1: Intro

Chapter Text

'Why is he doing this? Does he even have a plan?' Harry heavily sighed a hundred time in this long, long night of the fifth course. 'I don't get him.

'Mate you kinda shouldn't. He is batshit crazy, no mystery about it,' said Ron staying up. 'I am heading in bed. R' you coming?'

'I'll be in ten.'

Hermione left earlier tired from Harry's sudden moods lately. They rereaded the Prophets from summer and start of autumn. Only three weeks in school. Harry had already got detentions with Umbridge and her Black feather.

He glanced on Ron's silhouette while he was turning to the stairs and moved out of the common room with his map and the cloak. The news that reached Hogwarts were too censored and cutted to see the bigger picture, however Harry felt it with his guts that Voldemort is doing systematic work not just running around like a crazy one. After cooling off he even admired a bit the success of the resurrection of his enemy. And started to really look for solution of Umbridge Problem.

He went to the owlery avoiding the patroling Ambidge pets. Nearby the small room with parchment and quills was placed. He awkardly started

Dear Ms. Delacour,

I am asking you to send me few last newspapers from France. Since the Prophet here is censored because of totalitarian measures applied by current government, I would be also grateful if you refer my concerns and my please to the other schoolmates of yours or people from other countries. Real news here are poster in abigous way and in school we are restricted from learning the Defence against the Dark Arts. The resistance from us is unwanted. Don't know if you are aware but the last years duelling education here is weak. So if you have any thoughts about tutor I could invite to Hogwarts or if you have some ideas what can be done, I would be glad to know. If my letter is bothering you in any way, feel free to refer me to someone.

Kind regards,

Harry

Very Hermion-y thing to ask for research material probably. But he really needed to get out of box for once. The dreams connecting him to Voldemort were obsessive and vivid and again, and again got them to the door he couldn't passby.

If Draco wouldn't be such a prick, he would ask him what is going on in the ministry. Is there any way to make him an ally? That prat probably has a private tutor for defence or something and doesn't care about it as much as Harry.

A sudden idea pierced him and he wrote down on another parchment quickly afraid to lose the recklessness he needed.

Lavender,

can you ask Rosalinde Woel to meet me tomorrow evening near the Great hall stairs?

Harry

Sending these two notes gave him a long wanted feeling of doing somethig. Something after this awful summer without any news.
