Thanks to everybody who reviewed the first time this was posted. Your suggestions really helped.

I would like to thank my beta RurouniHime who helped me with my abysmal grammar.

Chapter 2: Unexpected revelation

Everyone just stares after Harry with his or her mouth hanging open in shock. After a few seconds, Ron and Hermione sprint after Harry to make sure he does not do anything stupid, like try to leave the castle grounds. It takes the rest of the class several minutes to get over the shock of Harry Potter, the Savior of the Wizarding, world almost having gone into Slytherin.

"Would you like another lesson?" Snape says to the class.

This gets everybody moving because nobody wants to be in Snape's presence longer than necessary.

"Draco," Snape calls.

"Yes, Professor"

"You will remain behind. I need to speak with you."

As the class begins to file out everyone talks about what had happened. When the last person leaves the room, Draco begins to fidget, waiting for Snape to yell at him. Draco knows that Snape is about to lose his temper because of what Harry had said about it being Draco's fault. Snape tried to let everyone think that he hates Harry but he really does not he is playing a part that he has to keep up so that no one finds out the truth.

"Now, would you care to explain to me why you felt the need as a first year to stop Harry Potter from wanting to be in Slytherin? You do realize that if he was in this house it might have put a stop to the saying that there was not a witch or wizard who had turned bad who was not in Slytherin. If he was in Slytherin maybe, he could have built his power up more in one of our extra defense practices that we have "Snape said.

"I really don't remember exactly what I did to him," Draco said desperately.

Snape slams his hands onto his desk, causing Draco to jump.

"Tell me what you remember, Draco." Snape

"Um . . . I uh . . . oh yeah, I remember now. On the train coming to Hogwarts as a first year, I overheard that Harry Potter was on the train and I had to meet him, just to see what the Boy Who Lived was like. Therefore, I grabbed Crabbe and Goyle and went to look for Harry. I went into his compartment and said something like 'so it's true Harry Potter has come to Hogwarts'. I introduced myself to him and the Weasel snorts as if my name is funny. So I insult him somehow, I can't remember exactly, and then I stick my hand out to Harry and ask him to be my friend."

At this Snape raises his eyebrow in question. Which causes Draco to analyzing his fingernails at the look in Snape's eyes, but Draco finishes his story.

"Not in those exact words. However, he refused me, so I took my anger out on him and insulted him and his parents, and ever since, Harry and I have been enemies." Draco said the last line so sadly that it scared Snape a little. Draco had really wanted to be friends with Harry, but when Harry refused him, it hurt.

"So you let your anger get the best of you and managed to sway the Boy Who Lived from wanted to be in Slytherin. You are a disgrace to the Slytherin name, we are supposed to be cunning to get what we want, but you managed to make the most powerful wizard since Grindewald not want to be in Slytherin, his father's house."

Draco's chin falls to his chest in astonishment at Snape's last sentence.

"His father was not in Slytherin, James Potter was in Gryffindor."

"I never said anything about James Potter. You are dismissed Draco." Snape says as he puts his head n his hands thinking what have I done no one was supposed to know.

Draco walks out of the room in a daze. James Potter was not Harry's father, but then who is?

End Chapter 2

Sorry about the shortness of this chapter but I wanted to update because I had not in awhile. The updates will be far apart because I just started college and midterms are soon.

Who do you think is Harry's father? Take a guess I might even tell you if you are right.
