"I had a fight with…with the others. Guess my old coping mechanism came into play." Sequel to a Ron/Draco story I wrote before. Pretty short and vague, but it's something that was bugging me and needed to be written. Thanks for reading.

Harry wasn't able to escape Malfoy Manor and was brought face-to-face with Voldemort earlier than expected. The connection they shared because of the horcruxes becomes apparent and Voldemort finds that he can now control, and manipulate, the piece of soul that resides into Harry's body. Will Harry be turned, unwillingly, to Voldemort's side? Can good really conquer a strong evil?

"Maybe Ron didn't take the breaking of his and Harry's friendship during their fourth year so well. Maybe he had to rely on other things." Story I had to get out of my head; timeline doesn't exactly match up and it's a bit rambly, but I hope you like it.
