《Confusion》Chapter 14
Advertisement
Draco asked Harry to leave right after he finished his sentence and stared at the ceiling. Madam Pomfrey would run in and out with medication, bandages or just checking him over. Draco felt very alone even with her being there. He was thinking about after he returned to class. Harry would go back to hating him, Crabbe and Goyle would try to be his friends again despite hurting him and Draco would be alone in a crowd of people once again. Harry didn't visit Draco again because he was so busy and before he knew it Draco was out of the hospital wing.
The year flew past with the next moment even more busy than the last. Harry didn't spend much time with Draco because of how busy he was, but the year was amazing from getting the firebolt to meeting his godfather. The day it came to leave Hogwarts everyone was upset, but not as much so as Harry. For a moment he'd had hope for the summer, but now it seemed like it was going to be as unbearable at the Dursley's as always. When everyone boarded the train it looked inexplicably more crowded than on the way to Hogwarts.
"There's only two seats open, unless we'd like to sit with the Slytherin." Ron looked disgusted and Harry knew he was talking about Draco.
"You two can sit together. I'll take the seat by him. I have to speak to him anyway." He separated from them and they both looked confused about this, but took seats next to Neville, Seamus and Dean.
Harry walked over to Draco and took a seat across from him. Draco looked happy and disappointed once again. "How's your arm?"
Draco made his signature face of disgust at Harry. "Don't see why you would care. What'd you see a dementor in you cabin and decided to sit here?"

"I'm trying to be nice." Harry responded and the kindness in his voice was starting to fade.
"If you have come here to brag about your broom stick or that my father failed in getting Buckbeak executed then please leave." Draco was clearly in a heck of a mood and had his head leaning against the window, aimlessly staring outside.
"Wasn't planning on it, Draco. What're you looking at?" Harry turned to see what Draco was blankly staring at, but nothing seemed out of the ordinary.
"The outside... Lupin was a werewolf, huh?" Draco turned to look at Harry and to Harry's surprise he wasn't smirking or pursing his lip.
"Apparently. He shouldn't have left though, he was a great professor." Harry smiled thinking about how much Lupin had done for him.
"Eh. I suppose everyone saw it coming. We seem to have a new Defense Against The Dark Arts professor every year. So, how's the firebolt?"
"Great! Couldn't be a better broom!" Just as Harry said that the lady selling candy rolled by. "Can him and I have four of everything you've got." Harry payed the lady and looked to see Draco's jaw hanging wide open.
"Did you just buy some candy for me? You know I'm not Weasley, right? I can pay for my own stuff." Draco said, but was smiling and reaching for half of Harry's lot.
"Always got to get digs in there, don't you, Malfoy?" Harry stuffed some bean in his mouth and winced when he tasted the flavor. "Ugh, boogers."
"I'm known for it and nice job getting one of the gross ones on your first try." Harry and Draco laughed and talked until all the candy was gone and they felt horrible. "I should not have eaten all of that junk. My father is going to be pissed when he sees me like this." Harry smiled and Draco leaned his head on the window and closed his eyes. Harry changed seats to sit next to him. Draco felt the shift and opened one eye to see what he was up to. "Potter, what're you doing?"

"Shut up." Harry said calmly, scooted up real close to Draco and leaned his head on his shoulder. Draco shifted the side his head was on to lean his pale blonde head on Harry's. They fell asleep dreaming of the other and spent the rest of the train ride this way. Once they got off the train Harry said goodbye, grabbed his luggage and stepped out onto platform 9 3/4. He walked up to Uncle Vernon, Aunt Petunia and Dudley who were waiting for him, said something about Sirius and said farewell to the Weasley's. As they were about to leave they saw a pale haired, pales faced, gray eyed boy jump out onto the platform. "Draco?" Harry yelled and Draco smiled at him. The boy ran up to Harry, laid his hands upon Harry's cheeks and locked lips, kissing madly.
Finally, after what felt like hours Draco pulled away and smirked at the Dursleys. "I'd watch yourself because Sirius isn't the only person making sure Harry is treated well." With that Draco ran back into the brick wall and Harry smiled brightly at the Dursleys stunned faces.

Hit It Very Hard
When offered the chance to be someone else, to live as a fantasy character, people invariably gravitate towards a style of play centred on fancy maneuvres and flashy spellcraft that take multiple strategic steps to outwit opponents and win glory. Why not just cut out the middleman with a large axe and be done with it?

My website: https://putiancom.wordpress.com This is a short story about revenge or something along the lines. (This is my first story ever written so please go ham at criticising my work.) Death. It is a form of punishment or torture. And can be also be a form of salvation. Ultimately, it forms different perspectives depending on the beholder itself and on how the beholder take it as. Life. A point in time where finding your purpose. Purpose, of life itself and experience its flow, either epiphany or hell. Death. It is an end. A point of no return. It also makes the beholder feel free, breaking away from the chain of life. It makes the beholder recollect and reflect when crossing the boundary between life and death. Boundaries. A place where a path will ultimately, be chosen with or without consideration in the decision, free. . . . A place where recounting life, take it as a feeling. The joys and sorrow accumulated, playing back, making the beholder reexperience life. "Reminiscing."
8 150Alien: Tribulation
The Year is 2183, four years after the tragedy at Hadley's Hope on LV-426. On the edge of the Outer Rim Territories, residents of an aging and outmoded sister-station to Sevastopol are embroiled in crisis. Socioeconomic, corporate and political considerations aside, the true threat to Ashkelon Station are dark secrets taking shape as Xenomorphs. Reese Castle and Wade Barrett are partners in crime, smugglers posing as spacecraft repair technicians until they can manage to steal their ship back. Weyland Yutani terminated their lease for the USCSS Casimir, an old M-Class Bison starfreighter, but they'll be damned if they let it get away so easily. A space truckers ship is their home and they're keen to leave the station while they still can. As a series of unfortunate events create a perfect maelstrom of chaos, death and upheaval, Agent Shella Roodt of the Interstellar Commerce Commission (by extension an entity of Weyland Yutani) and Chief Colonial Marshal John Coffee have a mandate to investigate wrongdoing and save lives. When they come face-to-face with the monsters however, there will be only one outcome. A final tribulation of survival of the fittest.

Mist Ji, originally next in line to be one of the honored Sword Saints. He is betrayed by those closest to him, and becomes a monster. From that point on, everything goes downhill, and he can only turn to the Devil, kneeling before it and gains unrivaled power. Often, we find that demons do not exist in power, but in the hearts of humans. Join Mist Ji as he experiences the initial betrayal, and is later forced to watch as those close him are forced to leave the world of the living, one by one. Witness the darkness of society force him to become a Demon, and read on to find out how a monster slowly revives his dead heart. He gains unrivaled power and destroys enemy after enemy, conquers both gods and demons, but is destined to never be able to hold onto the hands of those that he loves. Or rather, he will hold onto their hands, but that may very well be all that's left of them. When he is able to control the world as he pleases, he finds that she has disappeared from his side. "There are tens of trillions of dimensions that I control. Yet they mean nothing to me, if you do not exist in them." Ten thousand years...I await your graceful return. "I died. I came back a monster. I died again. I came back a husk. You gave me life again. So, what could I do, when you went? I could not do anything. Like a filthy coward, I could only pick up the pieces of your soul and run. All along, I'd thought that there would be someone that was watching us above, and led us together. Turns out, there was. But they didn't care. I promised myself...never again. Never. So I turned my back on the light. And I stepped into the darkness. For you, I stepped into the pits of Hell. For you, I tore out my eyes and offered them to the Demons. For you, I was hunted for a hundred years but the Conquerors. For you, I groveled before the Devil's Statue for a thousand years. For you, I burned myself alive to appease the Devil's wishes. For you, I cut out my soul and offered it to the Devil-King below. Only...if I could see your jade-green eyes sparkle as they had before. When...will I see your jade-green eyes again?"
