They closed his eyes again. He couldn't tell what day it was, they never let him see any light other than torches. He was frozen, a doll just like that man said. They moved him around to force him to watch their torcher of other prisoners. All the while Harry screamed in his head. Wanting out.

He felt them move him to a different room this time; he heard many voices reach his ear. His eyes were opened, only able to see what in front of him. He saw an empty thrown and many men in black and white clothing.

"Well the Lord is still away, but he has informed up that you will be our entertainment."

After hearing that Harry slowly let his mind wonder; knowing they mean to make him suffer. Not wanting to feel the pain, they cause or even embarrassment they did to him all he thought about was being back home with his family.

He's moving again, Harry hears the laughter of the two men. Then the creaks of the iron gates. He was back in the cell. Though it was just darkness. They moved his around in an odd position and then they were leaving.

They didn't open his eyes.

The pain was excruciating and there was nothing Harry could do except scream in his head. It was a long silence till the pattern repeated. Who knows what day it is or what year, Harry just silently cries as the pain and hunger kept building.

The crickets are chirping, telling Harry he wondered longer than last time as the birds could be heard singing. He was at a lost with what to do to keep his mind awake he couldn't tell the difference when he was awake or not. Wait- footsteps they normally don't bother him after one session. Nope that was someone opening the cell gate. Harry thought to himself then realized who it may be as herbs and either smelled filled the cell.

"I'm here Harry," Snape's voice sounded in the small cell. "I can only heal the internal injuries for now till I can get you out of here. I have a plan you'll have to wait one more day."

And then silence was all harry heard other than the chirping and dripping of water. He wanted out, wanted to be back home to be able see the some. Move one his one. Some food.

He thoughts were interrupted when the cell door creaked open hands carried him to a new place. Maybe they would let him see this time. Even though he didn't really want to.

"Ah the infamous Potter who is not so dead." A high voice airily said, "open his eyes."

His command was given when Harry finally saw light even if it was by torches and lanterns. From what little he could see he was in the large room a gain only this time the throne one the dais is filled. 'This must be Voldemort who tried to kill him', he thought to himself 'he doesn't look like much.'

"There are those green eyes," the man hissed while standing up "you know I remember that night hearing you cry out for your mud blood mother."

Harry watched him advance forward towards him like a prey "I heard you gave my men some entertainment. I must apologize for my pore host qualities," Voldemort mocked. "Now that I am here, we will have plenty of fun together." If Harry could move he would have not only run a way but cringed at the snake man's words. Fun meaning only for Voldemort. Scaly hands reached for his eyes and once again he was through into darkness. "Only disappointment from you is we can't hear you scream."

Laughter sprang around the room, and Harry took that que to run to the furthest back of his mind to get a way from whatever pain and embarrassment they caused to his body.

When Harry came back too the world around him the cell door closed once again with Voldemort's voice saying "I want a guard on him all night."

He then occupied his mind with lessons with his headmaster, and other books he read over the years. But Harry couldn't help when his mind wandered even more. Harry found his mind blank, like waking up, when the cell doors open again. It was Severus.

The man tilted his head back while pushing his jaw open pouring a few potions down his throat. "I hope you are still in there Potter, by tomorrow morning you will be out of here." The man then rubbed a paste onto his skin. "Within a potion there was a small marble, its a timed portkey. It will take you to Hogwarts Infirmary. You just have to be strong for a few hours-" Severus seemed to pause for something, "see you again soon." And then he was gone.

Harry this time with the crickets played a game or in any case made a toon with the sounds that night. A couple of times he had to snap awake by thinking a tripping down the stairs. Soon he will be in the arms of his parents, brothers and sister. He would be able to fly again. Feel the sun. Eat.

The next time the cell doors opened the birds were singing, Harry was then again lifted and carried for some time.

"Well morning Potter, I have planned a little something for my men before they head off to work." The snake man spoke airily, "I hope you will enjoy the entertainment as it is you again."

Then he felt his body move, his arm went up leg went out head was tilted, and so forth. Harry just sat in the back of his mind for the rest of it no sense in knowing what they are doing to him. Then the unexpected thing happened. Scaly hands indicated that is was when Voldemort touched his arms to move them. Only to scream back in pain when a sizzling sound occurred.

In the next instances Harry felt the portkey activate sending him through a portal. Harry smile in his mind as warmth landed one his sin "There you are dear. Severus warned me of you coming. I'll lift you up and onto a bed." A kind elderly voice said.

Harry was glad at how he was out of Voldemort's reach but he was still frozen unable to move. He just laid listening there to the students walking by or entering the wing, the birds and at some point a phoenix sang to him. The lady spoke to him saying she was going out for dinner leaving him to solitude again. Shortly after or longer the doors opened emitting the smell of herbs and earth. Severus was here.

"Potter, I believe I have found out a solution. I am going to take some of your blood and will synthesize it; hoping that the potion he used will be seen. I will be back when I have it."

Harry then wondered around the lady came back fussed around about things, then left him to the chirping of birds outside. Then the doors opened slamming loudly getting the ladies attention.

"Merlin's beard Severus!" The lady scolded him.

"I have found it and pray it will work." Severus murmured as he came closer.

Harry felt his jaw move again and something purred into his mouth slowly he felt his long-time stiff arms and legs soften. Then soft happy melody sang from the phoenix lulling him into peaceful sleep.
