    Fantastic story! I cannot wait for part two! I just read this story straight through, and I loved every bit of it. My anticipation for what happens next is very great. Please update soon with the second part of this thrilling tale. Terrific job!

Sequel to A Time and Place to Grow - After spending a summer with Snape, Harry begins his sixth year at Hogwarts. But Snape is keeping an eye and a firm hand on him, and a new teacher, split loyalties and a looming fight with the Dark Lord await Harry.

Reviewer: veritas427 (Signed)
    Oh my goodness! I had no idea that you updated. Even though I usually check at least twice a day to see if this story has been updated. Another chapter! Yay! I loved the interaction between Harry and Worty. I wonder if Harry will soon act as a bigger brother to Worty. Will Ron and Hermione befriend him as well? My most favorite part of the chapter was seeing Snape standing outside of the back door. Nothing escapes Snape, and apparently neither does Harry's table manners. I wonder if Draco and Hary will have a confrontation soon. Well at the very least, I cannot wait for you to update. This just made my night..err..well early morning. Amazing job as usual! PLEASE update soon!

Title: Chapter 2: Chapter 2 - A Class Act 24 Apr 2007

    For some reason my other reviews weren’t ever submitted, so I will try again. I cannot begin to describe how happy I am that you continued on with this terrific story. When I had heard that there was going to be a sequel I was ecstatic. Thank you so much for taking the time to a write a story that so many of us truly enjoy. I loved the argument in class with Harry and Snape. It was so like Harry to think that Snape was being completely unfair, rather than assume that he was merely playing a role. I also really liked how Snape grades Draco so harshly. It seems just like something that Snape would do, in order to not allow Draco to slack off. Anyway, thanks for another great chapter, and I can’t wait to see what is coming next! Fantastic chapter as usual!

As Harry comes of age, he must discover the secret of how Voldemort cheated death and find a way to defeat this evil once and for all. Along the way, he will have to contend with Death Eaters, shadowy Ministry officials and suspicions that threaten to tear his own allies apart. And he will need to delve farther than ever before into the mysteries of the mind where victory can only be won by freeing the chained souls.

Title: Chapter 27: Chapter 27: The Darkness Revealed 24 Jun 2007
Reviewer: veritas427 (Signed)
    Fantastic! Utterly fantastic! How can you only have twenty some reviews for this story? I'm appalled by that fact. I have just spent over 30 almost consecutive hours reading both The Enemy Within, and all of the chapters of Harry Potter and the Chained Souls to date.

    I honestly have no idea where to begin. Your writing, for one is phenomenal. The language style that you use is wonderful. Your ability to produce plots and foreshadowing is none like I have ever seen in fanfiction. You completely nailed down both the characters mannerisms and personas to almost an exact art.

    Snape was completely perfect. I love the fact that unlike other stories, Snape did not change his attitude in a matter of chapters, or due to some eventful occurence. In Enemy Within even despite the fact that he was no a spy, he did not have a miraculous change into a cheery, happy person. I greatly respected that fact, along with your insight into his character.

    Your writing style at times left me breathless, or with my pulse racing. I have never read a story that was so clever as yours. I feel almost guilty for not going back and reviewing every single chapter, but my anticipation for what was to come caused me to rush on before I could review. I really really hope that there is another sequel that will be in the works at the finish of this story.
    Thank you thank you thank you for making the past two days of my life filled with enjoyable reading. You have an honest to God gift. I won't even compare you to J.K Rowling, because in some instances I feel that your writing is better than her own. Amazing job, and I wish that I had time to say more. However, I have to go to work in a couple of hours, and I haven't slept yet.

    I can't wait to see what is coming next. I have no doubt that it will be just as terrific as all of your previous chapters. I do hope that you will update soon! Thank you!

    Thirty hours?  My goodness!  I am truly honored that you spent so much time reading my stories and delighted beyond words that you found them worthwhile.  Thank you so much for an absolutely amazing review! - Theo


When Harry finds an injured Snape on his doorstep and must hide him from the Dursleys, he has no idea that this very, very bad day will be the start of something good.

Harry and Snape are thrown together by annoying relatives, a series of strange dreams, and Voldemort's latest hunt for Harry, but their greatest challenge may well be surviving each other. This will be a long summer unless the two can find a way to work together. A slow-burn enemy-to-mentor story.

Alternate 6th summer (and part of the school year): post-OotP; ignores HBP and DH.

Reviewer: veritas427 (Signed)
    Another great chapter! I love your descriptions of the character's movements and actions. It makes it very easy to imagine. I loved the weed spell. A perfect thing to do to the Dursleys. I was surprised that Snape had Harry come with him. I can't wait to see what Dumbledore will have to say about that, or what Snape will have to say to Dumbledore about Harry's living conditions. Also, I hope that Snape mentions how smart it is for Harry to have the hidden space under the floorboard. Ok...lol. Well anyway, terrific job. This story is quickly becoming one of my favorites. As usual, I cannot wait for an update. Great job!

    Author's Response: Thank you for the wonderful comments! I love hearing specifics about what people like. I can't wait to see what happens next too. Writing is even more fun than I thought it would be! :)

    Ha ha...that was evil of Harry, I loved it!

Title: Chapter 5: Chapter 5 - The Walls Have Ears 16 May 2007
Reviewer: veritas427 (Signed)
    Nice chapter...I loved Harry's attitude towards Snape. I can't wait for an update! Great job so far!

    Author's Response: Thank you! The words "great job" are always lovely to hear!

Title: Chapter 7: Chapter 7 - Catching the Snitch 29 May 2007
Reviewer: veritas427 (Signed)
    Fantastic Chapter! I loved Snape in this chapter, it would be just like him to poke his abnormally large nose into Harry's business and ask about the presents. And so ungrateful with demanding Harry's food. lol. Loved it. Well anyway, I can't wait for an update. Great job again.

    Author's Response: Totally Snape. I hadn't planned on him stealing Harry's food, actually... He just kinda took over and did it. Very rude on his part, but I found it entertaining, albeit at Harry's expense.

Title: Chapter 9: Chapter 9 - Layovers and Lies 10 Jun 2007
Reviewer: veritas427 (Signed)
    Argh!!! Harry!!! Why didn't you tell Lupin the truth, now he is going to assume that Snape was the one who injured you!!! Ha ha! That was my mini rant to a fictional character. lol. Another great chapter, as usual. I like the idea of the Order having more than one location, it makes them seem like a real defense group, rather than just some people that gather at a house and discuss the war. Great idea! I can't wait to see what will be happening next. Are they off to Hogwarts, Grimmauld Place, or somewhere new? I can't wait to find out! For all of our sakes, please update soon! Thanks!

    Author's Response: Me too. I look at the Order as a real operation in fighting the war... Secret codes and signals and alternate meeting locations and such. Anyway, that will be my take on the Order in this story - glad you're liking it!

Title: Chapter 10: Chapter 10 - Hostility, House-elves, and Headmasters 07 Aug 2007
Reviewer: veritas427 (Signed)
    Oh Harry...you always need to know what's going on, don't you? Of course I can't blame you, I'd probably be doing the exact same thing as you. lol. Another terrific chapter. I'm going to need to start thinking up more interesting compliments apart from amazing and great job! It seems as though Remus is very suspicious of Snape right now, I can't wait to see what will happen with that! I loved the interaction with Remus and Snape about being noble. Very creative! Well, usually in this case I would write something such as "update soon." However, I am behind on my reading so there are already other chapters for me to read! Yay! Ha ha. You have no idea how difficult it was for me to be able to write a review for this chapter, before diving into the next chapters. Well I believe that all authors/writers deserve to get credit where credit is due, so thus I had to review first. Thanks again for another great chapter! I'm off to find out what's happening next!

    Author's Response:

    'Amazing'...'good job'... those are good compliments in and of themselves, so I thank you for being such an awesome reviewer that you expounded even further!!  :)  Even though it was difficult for you, I thank you so much for caring enough to review after each chapter!
