"Come to me, come to me now, it is time, I have laid dormant for hundreds of years tonight glory shall be mine and yours too if you will join me..." the high cold voice whispered through the darkness, he saw a chamber, dimly light with cold green light, a smooth grey pathway with pillars carved like poised snakes on either side, at the far end was a statue of a small man with ancient monkey-like features... Albus woke up drenched in sweat. He felt a sudden urge to get out of bed. "Yes that's right, come to me and glory can be yours..." It was the same voice from the dream. He walked past the four poster beds were his friends lay snoring without wanting to. He began to get scared. "Now, now, don't be scared, I'm not going to hurt you I'm going to help you..." That did nothing to help calm him it made him more scared, he tried to call for help but he couldn't move his mouth. Then he walked slowly down the stairs, his legs still moving seemingly of their own accord. His common room was lit dimly the fire in the grate had burned low, the comfy chairs and beanbags around it looked very inviting but Albus couldn't walk over to them and sit down because his legs wouldn't let him. He had no control over his own body. Albus strode out of the portrait of Fat Lady who squawked "Potter! What are you doing out of bed?! Go back... Oh, what's the point...? Like father like son I suppose..." she dozed off again quickly.

Albus worked his way through the myriad of corridors that was Hogwarts Castle until he reached the door of a girls toilet which had a "Out of order" sign on it, despite that he walked in and positioned himself in front of a sink, then made a strange hissing sound, like a snake being strangled. He would have jumped when the sink began to sink into the floor, underneath was a hole which smelt of rotting meat. "WHAT ARE YOU DOING?" a voice came from behind him. Without looking to see who was speaking he jumped into the hole, he fell for what seemed like forever, then, just when he thought he would never reach the bottom, he landed with a loud CRUNCH! He had landed on hundreds of skeletons most of them fish and other small creatures but he recognised a dog, a wolf and his stomach dropped when he saw a skeleton of a human. Without a seconds pause he picked himself up and strode on though the tunnel, after a while he saw what seemed to be a giant snake in front of him, after brief second of panic, he realised it was just a shedded skin, he walked past, more quickly now. A door loomed out of the gloom, he made the same strange hissing sound again and the door slid open to reveal the same chamber he had seen in his dream. He ran all the way to the statue where, on the floor lay a unnaturally short wand, he picked it up. A eerie green mist engulfed him . It went as soon as it was gone, but something had changed about Albus, he no longer could think for himself, an entity had possessed him like an eclipse, blocking out the light of the sun. He opened his mouth and screamed the top of his voice, "I AM SALAZAR SLYTHERIN!"
