With their luck, it will come out before they are gone. But, Harry will survive, but I don't know about Viktor. 50-50 chance. But then of course Harry is going to defeat the Nelapsi and get praise from everyone and then Harry will be like 'Stop stop. You know I don't like the attention.' And if it doesn't happen sorta like that, well, then it is not a true Harry Potter fanfic. And when does Ginny come into the story? |

Finally, a story that I can bear more than a chapter of. Been looking for a decent fanfic, but I usually stop at the second or third chapter. The writing is usually horrendous, and so is the punctuation, and that irks me! Either way, nice writing, decent story, although I don't think gun-toting-muggles will be in book seven. Either way, good job!
P.S. - there is a space between an ellipse and the next word. So, it would be:
I... I don't know.
and not:
I...I don't know.

Thanks for your review! I'm glad you're liking things so far, and
honoured that my fic is the one that has you reading past the third
chapter. And lol, I don't expect gun-toting Muggles will be in book 7,
either. My own plots and ideas insert their way into the story as I
write, I can't help myself, lol.
Thanks for the heads up regarding ellipses! I'll take care to see that they're correctly done in future chapters. :)

I've been out of the net for awhile and just had time to catch up. I'm on the edge of my seat waiting to see what's next. I've never read many vampire fics but in the HP realm this is an original angle and I'm loving it. I also like the tension between Ron and Hermione and the addition of Viktor in the group. Hope he stays awhile, lol... Nicely done! |

Thanks for the review! Sorry on the late reply here, my laptop keeps
breaking..but I *think* I've got it properly fixed this time.
I love writing Viktor. It's funny, becuase just in the course of
reading I hadn't considered myself a Krum fan, but after having written
two different stories in which he plays a fairly significant roll, I
guess I'd have to say that I am. You can definitely count on him
staying a while...and I hope to capitalise on that tension between him,
Ron, and Hermione, especially when they get back into a setting that is
a bit more social than a Nelapsi hunt in the Albanian wilds.

Fantastic stuff there! Wonderfully tense. I love the way your story is shaping up! Do update soon!

Good, but Ginny would have done better if she was in the story more.

I agree with you 100%. I miss writing Ginny a great deal, and look
forward to writing her again once the crew (whomever of them survives)
gets back to England. It's just that the start of the Horcrux hunt
needed to be Harry, Ron, and Hermione, imo, at least as far as canon
characters go. Harry would *never* have agreed to go into that valley
if Ginny was with them.

Ohoh. Not good. - And I'm surprised at Hermione again. Quite emotional for her. She can be like that, of course, but it's highly impractical. |

It is, yes, but it's somewhat to be expected, as you say, given her personality. Thank you for your review!

Really tense, exciting chapter here, but my favorite part was the end with Sully threatening to spank Ron. I got such a hoot out of that. Sometimes we forget that they are teenagers, and some adults have no patience for their theatrics.
Honestly, what was Hermione thinking? She was going to stay behind so when this killer vampire started chasing Harry he'd have to put her on his broom and be slowed down? I understand she simply didn't want to leave him behind, but....well...typically Hermione tends to lose her head a bit in a crisis. Nicely done. |

Sorry on the late reply here, my computer was in the shop for a week so I'm just getting to these now.
Hee. I love writing Sully. It's not that I like him, because in a lot
of ways I really don't. It's just that he can say and do things that
are fun/funny to write, things the other characters either wouldn't
dare to say.
And yeah, Hermione really kind of lost her head here. Ron didn't help matters any, but his reaction was typical Ron.
Thanks for the review, and I'll write more soon! :)

Very tense, but to be expected at the same time--else where's the conflict, right? I think Jakob even mentioned this probable obstacle at one point in an earlier chapter, didn't he?
Keep up the great work! |

Thanks for your review, and sorry on the late reply, my computer was in
the shop. And you're right about the conflict. I tried to keep this
chapter more suspense and emotional battles though...I hope that it
will make it that much more interesting when they do 'make contact', as
it were.
