A Mark of Betrayal

Every year when Harry returns to Hogwarts there is always an adventure waiting for him. It is known worldwide that almost anything can be overcome if you stick together. This story shows just what can happen if that isn't the case; if friends don't stick together, but listen to the tempting voices of the mind. This is a story about betrayal.

Love Potions are banned at Hogwarts, but that doesn't mean it won't come up in NEWTS. Find what ghastly situations await the trio in a Charms class in which they are introduced, and subjected, to a certain charm.

They say best friends have no secrets from each other, but its easy to keep your thoughts to yourself. Ron wonders why he doesn't confess all to Harry and some bad news is far from unwelcome in Hermione's mind. Meanwhile, captain of the quidditch team; Harry, has other things on his mind, even as the Quidditch game looms over him.

The Quidditch Match gets under way and misfortune and triumph show themselves, all in the space of one very uncertain game, and at the end of the day its not Harry who's lying in the hospital wing...

That one moment when Harry realises that he can't do it alone and that he needs help. The moment when he regrets lashing out at those close to him in an attempt to ease this worry and broken heart. Eventhough he knows its coming, it still creeps up on him...
