Umm... I usually make it a point to read only completed stories since it is such a disappointment if you once get involved into a story and then when it gets shelved, however, i could not reign in my curiosity with this second part and have loved both the chapters so far. I hope you will update soon.

This looks like it will be very interesting.

i can't say i'm sorry to lose albus...i don't think i'm ever sorry to lose albus.  great update.  thanks so much

That was intense.  Here I wanted a confrontation.  I certainly got it!  I have too many negative feelings towards Dumbledore to feel bad for him.  Although what Severus did was rather chilling, and bereft of feeling.  It seems that no matter what happens, he's a being that should be avoided.  I can't wait to see what Cedric and his new cohorts do now.

She should try hunting bears.  It works for Edward and his family.  Maybe she'll run into them, and he'll look like Cedric, and she'll fall in love with him.  Okay, it's almost midnight here in the west, I'm allowed to be a little punchy.It seems she's really gotten herself into a mess.  She can't return to Hogwarts, who knows what would happen.I'm interested to see what Harry and Ron say/do about all of this.  We already know Cedric's gonna kick some old-man butt.  I can see Harry and Ron trying to take on Severus.  That would obviously be a mistake.  Possibly a fatal one.  Feel free to kill off Ron.

jippi the second part!i hope you'll explain a few things in thispart becouse the first ended kinda abrupt!i hope things turn out ok for hermione

superb begining of the next installment of this saga.  poor hermione, poor severus, poor cedric.  thanks so much and i await the next chapter.
