Story Notes:
Okay peeps, by now you know I do not have a beta. If I make mistakes, by all means point them out to me. Just don't be overly harsh in your pointing out. I am Hufflepuff for a reason. This one is far more serious then my other HP stories, as it deals with a depressive Harry. I will not give much of a summary, and let you figure this one out on your own. Remember, I will never do a Snarry. Sorry folks who like that, but it is just not me. Draco might end up as Harry's mate, but it's more likely that he will be brother to Harry. Severus however is going to have a more Guardian role in this story. So without further ado, I hope you like.
"I watched them go, those brave souls
To fight a battle I would never see
Two black-haired men stood out most
Enemies and comrades, they who mean the most to me
And I wondered: Would I see either return?" -Harry

1. The Runner by Baghi [Reviews - 4] 
(1294 words) 
2. Dementors and their consequence by Baghi [Reviews - 4] (1632 words)
For those who have just read Chapter 8 on CeV, sorry for the shortness of it. I will try to make it up for length in this one. So, with all due apologies, here is Chapter 2 of Runner.
3. Curiosity by Baghi [Reviews - 5] (1792 words)
Hmm....I am remiss it seems. I have neglected to write this chapter for more then a week. I hope you people haven't been too anxious to see what happens to poor Harry. I'm going to introduce a new creature in this story, so keep an eye out for it. Without further ado.
4. Confrontation and Pain by Baghi [Reviews - 3] (1245 words)
You've entered into a story from the demented mind of this author. Do you wish to turn back? No? Very well. If you have been keeping up as I think you have, then you know I purposefully left last chapter at a cliffie! Argh! Take this as fair warning: I will never tell my story plot-line to anyone, and I will never to the expected. If that doesn't phase you, then keep reading. So, without further ado.
5. After Effects and The Library by Baghi [Reviews - 7] (1902 words)
Well this is curious. Two friend requests, three mate/lover requests, and at least six or more requests for brother in response to the question I posed last chapter. Well, we'll see, as we have yet to meet Malfoy in the story. Hopefully this chapter wont disappoint. Without further ado.
6. Information and a Promise by Baghi [Reviews - 5] (1275 words)
Wow! Last chapter reached a staggering 2,049 words including both Author's notes. That is a record for Runner, and I hope to beat it this chapter. We'll see wont we? I have yet another mate request, bringing the score up to 2/4/6-7 on friend/mate/brother respectivly. Also, for those using ff.net, don't be overly offended if I don't answer your reviews. I most often check my mail at the library, and they don't allow ff.net on thier comps. But I hope you keep reading anyway. So without further ado.
7. Nightmares and Breakfast by Baghi [Reviews - 6] (910 words)
Chapter 7 already? Wow, have I come a long way. I know when I'm gonna end this story, but it's some ways away. This story might make chapter twenty...or even thirty. We'll see how things go along down the way. Hmph, did I forget to mention that you can't become a student without having been a resident for at least a year? Yeah, so, I'll be updating more then I thought until December. So enjoy, and without further ado.
8. Meditation by Baghi [Reviews - 3] (784 words)
Oh jeez....gomen everyone for making you wait a full two or so months for this chapter. I seriously had a very bad case of writers block. I will try and get more out presently, but I can't promise. Thanks to all of you have reviewed all my stories. And without further ado, here we go!
9. Compromises and Surprises by Baghi [Reviews - 3] (1265 words)
As promised, here's the update. And it is still before the New Years I might add. For those who do these respective holidays: Merry Christmas, Happy Chanakah, Happy Kwanza. And without further ado, on we go!

11. Foundations Laid by Baghi [Reviews - 3] (1150 words)
Sorry folks, no 'Last Time' this time. I'm typing at my Grandma's computer, and we don't have the Internet. So I can't check the end of the last story to copy it down for you. Hope you won't be too mad about that. Enjoy the chapter. Without further ado, on we go!
12. The Trial by Baghi [Reviews - 2] (1387 words)

Chapter 15! Wow! Happy April Fools everyone! Though this likely won't get put up till tomorrow, I did write it on the first. Sorry, but my mind is blank on an April Fools story. So you'll just have to deal with the regular story. Oh, and big cats have won out, as has a brother bond. And without further ado, on we go!
16. New Route by Baghi [Reviews - 5] (1455 words)

21. The Toad and the Treaty by Baghi [Reviews - 3] (1633 words)

24. Memories and Visions by Baghi [Reviews - 4] (1676 words)
Wow, I hadn't realized how old this story is. We passed the two year marker already. We are winding to a close however, sad as it may be. Six or so chapters to go, maybe a little more if my counting is off. So, without further ado, on we go.
