The days after Harry, Ron, and Hermione found out about Nicolas Flamel from Hagrid quickly past by without any of them finding out who Nicolas Flamel was. It was nearing Christmas and only Ron out of the three of them signed up to stay at Hogwarts. "Why are you not going home to see your family" asked Harry
"My parents are going to Romania to visit my brother Charlie" said Ron
"Make sure to keep going to the library to look for Nicolas Flamel" said Hermione
"Yeah, yeah" said Ron waving Hermione off
"I will ask my parents to see if they know anything" said Harry
Once the holidays started Harry and Hermione got on the train and rode it back to London. They both got off the train and Harry saw his parents waiting for him. "Mom, Dad" shouted Harry running up to them
"Hey sweetie" said Lily hugging him
"Who's this" asked James looking at the girl with Harry
"This is my friend Hermione" said Harry
"It's a pleasure to meet you Mr. and Mrs. Aurion" said Hermione
"Where are your parents" asked Lily
"Beyond the barrier" said Hermione looking down a little
"It's alright, I am muggle-born as well" said Lily
Hermione looked up at that as they went though the barrier. On the other side Hermione saw her parents and ran up to them. "Mom, Dad, this is my friend Harry" said Hermione
"It's nice to meet you" said Mrs. Granger
"Likewise" said Harry
"We have to get going" said James
"Alright" said Harry
"Bye" he said
At their home during dinner Harry asked "Do you know who Nicolas Flamel is mom"
"Yes" said Lily
"But why do you need to know about him" she asked
"We didn't go over him in first year" she said
"Well…" Harry began to say
He told his parents everything that had happened during the fall semester. Lily sighed as she thought "He just had to get James sense of adventure mixed with my need to solve mysteries"
"You will find the answer in Hogwarts: A History" said Lily
"Thanks mom" said Harry
During the holidays Harry looked though Hogwarts: A History and eventually found the answer. Nicolas Flamel is known for creating a Philosopher's Stone. "So that's it" thought Harry
"But why is it at Hogwarts" he thought
The holidays went by and Harry and Hermione returned to Hogwarts. "Did you find anything Ron" asked Hermione
"No" said Ron
"I did" said Harry
"You did" exclaimed Hermione
"Where" she asked
"In Hogwarts: A History" said Harry
"I never thought to look there" said Hermione
"So what is it that dog is guarding" asked Ron
"A Philosopher's Stone" said Harry
"A what" asked Ron?
Harry sighed as he said "It can turn any metal to gold and extend your life with the Elixir of Life"
"But why would something like that be here in a school" asked Hermione
"I don't know" said Harry
A couple of weeks after the holidays were over the trio were studying in the library when Harry saw Hagrid trying to sneak by them with a book. "What are you doing Hagrid" asked Harry
"Nothing" said Hagrid hiding the book behind his back
"You are not still trying to find Nicolas Flamel are you" he asked trying to change the subject
"No" said Harry
"I found out about him during the holidays" he said
"Do you why it would be here" asked Hermione
"Hogwarts is one of the safest places in the world besides Gringotts" said Hagrid
"But Gringotts was broken into" said Harry
"So is that why it was moved here" asked Hermione
"I'm not saying anymore" said Hagrid
"I need to go" he said as he left
"I'm going to look in the section he was in" said Harry
He left and came back a few minutes later saying "He was in a section on Dragons and how to take care of them"
"But it's illegal to own a dragon" said Ron
"It's illegal to even have a dragon egg" he said
"Let's go talk to him about it" said Harry
They left the library and headed down to Hagrid's hut. They saw all the curtains were closed and when Hagrid opened the door they were hit by a blast of heat. "Come in quickly" said Hagrid
They went inside and sat down as Hagrid made some tea. "What did you what to talk about" asked Hagrid
"How you got that dragon egg" asked Harry pointing at the egg
"I won it off a man I met down in the pub" said Hagrid
"When did he bring it out" asked Harry
"After I told him about all the animals I have taken care of" said Hagrid
"Didn't he warn you how dangerous they are" asked Harry
"Yes" said Hagrid
"But after taking care of Fluffy I said I could handle it" said Hagrid
"Did he seem interested in Fluffy" asked Harry
"Of course he was interested in Fluffy. How many three headed dogs do you meet" said Hagrid
"I told him the key to handling an animal is knowing how to calm them down. Like with Fluffy all you need is a bit of music and he will go to sleep" he said
Hagrid realized what he said and said "Forget I said anything"
"We will" said Harry
"Bye" he said
They then left Hagrid's hut. "What are we going to do now" asked Ron
"Leave everything to me" said Harry
"Alright" said Hermione
That night after everyone was asleep Harry opened the window and took off. Hovering near Hagrid's hut out of sight he started chanting "I call upon the heavenly messengers, I summon thee, come Sylph"
In flash of green light Sylph appeared. "What do you need" asked Sephie
"There is a dragon egg in that hut" said Harry pointing at Hagrid's hut
"Take it and destroy it" he ordered
"At once" said Sephie
Sylph flew down and Sephie opened the door as Fairess flew in and grabbed the egg. "Give that back" shouted Hagrid
Sylph took off with the egg as Fairess threw it into the air and Yutis destroyed it with an arrow. "Bye" said Fairess waving as they disappeared in a flash of green light
Hagrid went back into his hut sobbing. "Sorry Hagrid but it's for your own good" thought Harry
He then flew back into his room and made his way down to the forbidden corridor. Once inside he went near the door to where the Cerberus was and started chanting "I call upon the envoy from the dark abyss, I summon thee, come Shadow"
In a flash of black light Shadow appeared. "Yes" said Shadow
"Watch this place and come tell me when someone put the Cerberus to sleep and goes down the trap door" ordered Harry
"Yes" said Shadow
Harry then went back to his room and went to sleep. The next morning during breakfast the trio received a letter from Hagrid asking them to come visit today. They wrote a reply back saying they will come after class was over for the day.
When class was over all three of them went down to Hagrid's hut. They noticed that all the curtains were opened and when he opened the door to let them in they weren't hit with a blast of heat. They went inside and Hermione noticed he had been crying. "What happened Hagrid" asked Hermione
"Some faeries broke in last night and stole the dragon egg. They then took off and destroyed it" said Hagrid
"Maybe this is for the best" said Harry
Both Ron and Hermione shot Harry a look as he continued "Once it started growing, someone would have noticed it and you would have gotten into trouble"
"I know" said Hagrid
"But I wish I could have at least hatched it" he said
Sometime later after they left Hagrid's hut Hermione yelled "YOU DID THIS"
"Yes" said Harry
"Where did you get the faeries from" asked Ron
"That's a secret" said Harry
"Why did you destroy it" shouted Hermione
"Because when it hatched people would want to know where it came from. Most people would think of Hagrid" explained Harry
"This was the only way to protect him" he said
"I guess you are right" said Hermione looking down
Nothing else happened until after all of their exams were over. Harry was going back to his common room when Shadow appeared before him. "It has happened" said Shadow
"Thank you Shadow that will be all" said Harry
"Yes" said Shadow as he disappeared in a flash of black light
Harry then ran all the way back to the common room to get ready to go though the trap door.
