Shadows of the past 3/? Forging alliances

Author's note: This chapter grew considerably from the draft, and got me into some complicated issues all the same. It's become my premier on slash fiction (second half of the chapter).I owe huge thanks to Cyanida who helped and encouraged me, guiding me virtually through the labyrinth.
