SeriousKiller: Hi.
Salazar: Hello. Are you the only one here?
SeriousKiller: Mioneclaw left, but she promised to be back soon.
Salazar: Ok
Silence ensured and Severus was getting bored.
SeriousKiller: What do you think is wrong with Emerald?
Salazar: Don't know.
SeriousKiller: No idea?
Salazar: No
SeriousKiller: Come on, you must know something more.
Salazar: No.
SeriousKiller: Do you want to play a game?
Salazar: No
SeriousKiller: Are you a robot or just retarded?
Salazar: No
Salazar: Neither.
SeriousKiller: Neither?
Salazar: Neither.
Mioneclaw has joined the chat.
SeriousKiller: Hey!
Salazar: Hello.
Mioneclaw: Hello you two. Anything interesting while I was gone?
Salazar: No.
SeriousKiller: HONESTLY SALAZAR IS IT THE ONLY WORD YOU KNOW?
Salazar: ...
Salazar: No
SeriousKiller is on the edge of madness.
SeriousKiller has left the chat.
Salazar smirks.
Mioneclaw: ...
Mioneclaw: That was weird.
Salazar: Indeed.
Mioneclaw: At least your answer wasn't 'no'.
Salazar glares at Mioneclaw.
SlythDragon has joined the chat.
Mioneclaw scurries away from Salazar.
SlythDragon: Hey, what's up?
Mioneclaw: Hey SlythDragon. Not much. Just Salazar repeating the word 'no'.
Salazar: I am not repeating it!
SlythDragon: Has Emerald come here yet?
Mioneclaw: No. (Shut up Salazar) He said he would come in a few days sinse he is ill because of the Walrus.
SlythDragon: He just sent me an owl and he wrote that he should be here soon.
Mioneclaw: That's good.
SlythDragon: Yeah.
SlythDragon: Well, gotta go.
Mioneclaw: Bye SlythDragon.
SlythDragon has left the chat.
Mioneclaw: Salazar I should go too. See you tomorrow hopefully!
Salazar: Fine.
Mioneclaw has left the chat.
Admin Emerald has joined the chat.
Salazar: Hello, Emerald, you missed Mioneclaw.
Emerald: Hi
Emerald: Uh oh...She's gonna kill me.
Salazar smirked.
Admin Emerald pouted.
Emerald: I have to send a private message to her then. I really don't want to get killed before September the 1st.
Salazar: You can send private messages?
Emerald is away.
Emerald is back.
Emerald: Sorry Salazar, I didn't notice your question at first. Yes you can. Just click on a person's name and choose either private message or private chat. The message is something like a letter, but in a chat you can actually talk like normally. In the private chat you can also do calls with a camera or without and the system can actually modify your voice so feel free to use it.
Salazar: Actually. I was waiting for a 'Yes' or 'No' type of answer but that works as well. Thank you.
Emerald facepalms.
Emerald: Sorry Salazar.
Salazar: No harm done.
Emerald. So...anything new from...uh...wherever you are?
Salazar: I live on Spinners End and no, nothing too new.
Emerald: Spinners End? That's close to Private Drive.
Salazar: Didn't know you lived on Private Drive.
Emerald: I once really like the park there.
Salazar: You do not like it now?
Emerald: I do like it, but I can't go outside.
Salazar: Is the famous Boy-Who-Lived grounded?
Emerald: Cut the Boy-Who-Lived crap please. And no, I am just forbidden to leave the house by both Dumbledore and my uncle.
Salazar: I see.
Salazar: You said you were sick yesterday.
Emerald: Well I was a little.
Salazar: Very convincing.
Emerald: Well I have no need to convince you, sir.
Severus' eyes widened. Did Potter know that he was a teacher? What now?
MoonNargle has registered joined the chat.
Emerald: Hello and welcome to UH. I am Admin Emerald and here to help whenever I am online. During my absence Admin Mioneclaw is usually here so feel free to turn to her.
MoonNargle: Hello Harry.
Emerald: O.O
Salazar: Hello MoonNargle.

MoonNargle: Hello, Salazar. How are your Potions going?
Severus gaped at the screen. How did he/she know about...what...maybe Emerald had told him/her...But maybe Emerald himself didn't know who he was and Severus was just being paranoid?
Emerald: Are you alright Salazar?
Salazar: Yes, Emerald I am fine.
Emerald: :)
Potter, being concerned about his well-being? Impossible.
Salazar to MoonNargle: Yes everything is fine.
MoonNargle: That's good.
MoonNargle has left the chat.
Emerald: Okay...
Salazar: You're not the only one confused.
Emerald: :D
Best has joined the chat.
Emerald: Hello Best. It seems I have yet to meet you. I am Admin Emerald and am here to help in case of emergencies.
Best: Hey Harry! Cut the crap already. It's me, Ron.
Emerald: Hello Ron.
Salazar: Good evening Best.
Best: Hey Harry, could you make me Admin?
Emerald: No sorry.
Best: Come on mate!
Emerald: Ron that's a firm no. Have you checked the list? You are one of the last ones that is getting any power here.
Salazar: What list?
Emerald: On the top of the screen there are statistics. Mioneclaw and I are looking for another Moderator since we are rather busy and don't have much time watching this place. So Mioneclaw and I made a list, who is more natural at keeping peace here. All new chatters are at the end of the list at first and then later go up higher.
Salazar: Again Emerald you could have just said one sentence.
Emerald: Sorry.
Salazar: And again: no harm done.
Salazar: I will go and see what is there as well, so I won't be available.
Emerald: Okay.
Emerald: Hope to see you soon.
Salazar is away.
Severus scrolled up and finally found what Em— Potter was talking about. It was a rather long page with different links, but one said: Moderator Competition
He clicked on it and received a page that said:
The Moderator Competition
We have received reports on people acting not-too-well during our absence and even if there are people who try to warn them, they don't have power to block, silence or even ban them. We decided to get someone to help us keep everything under control even in our absence. We made a list of all users, that shows their chance of becoming a Moderator.
The list is often modified.
By the 20th August the person on the 1st place will become a Moderator. In case he refuses the Moderator will be the person on the 2nd and so on.
Please note that the list changes rather often.
The list is modified by Admin Emerald.
1. SlythDragon
2. NevGryff
3. Susan
4. Salazar
Are the first 4 candidates for the Moderator post. To see your placing in the list please click 'Find' below.
You are Salazar (4th)
Severus blinked. He had been sure that he was one of the last ones, but couldn't help, but be proud of his place.
Salazar is back.
Best: I still think you are wrong, Harry.
Emerald: Welcome back, Salazar.
Salazar: Thank you.
Emerald to Best: I believe I have told you not to call me that here.
Best: But come on, Em, SlythDragon is a Slytherin! And I'm a Gryffindor!
Emerald: Your point?
Salazar: What's the row about?
Best: He can't get power here!
Emerald to Salazar: Best doesn't like the fact that SlythDragon in the first candidate for a Mod.
Salazar: I see.
Salazar: Well I have to go.
Emerald: Goodnight.
Salazar: Goodnight.
Salazar has left the chat.
A/N A huge thank you to Lilevilone96, who helped me to continue the story with encouragement. She as well gave me the idea with MoonNargle.
