(Last Time)

It had been about an hour since the first years had been sent to bed, and since that time the rest of the House had begun to drift off, heading to their respective rooms. Harry however had remained behind, politely conversing with his year mates as he patiently waited for the common room to empty.

Now an hour later he was finally alone, in the end he had ended up having to use his 'persuasive' abilities to get rid of the hangers on. Leaving him very much alone as he sat in his high-backed chair and gazed into the crackling green fire, patiently waiting.

"Hello Harry." A soft feminine voice spoke up behind him.

Harry didn't reply at first, instead just continuing to gaze into the fire. Eventually however he shifted his head and looked at the speaker.

"Hello Miss Greengrass," Harry said the slightest of smiles on his face as he turned to look at the amused looking Daphne Greengrass. "I think it's time we have a little chat."

Chapter 8

(In the Slytherin Common Room)

"I have to admit I am surprised you came." Daphne said a slight smile on her face as she glided forwards, absentmindedly taking a seat in one of the comfortable leather chairs that dotted the common room, one that happened to be opposite the chair Harry was currently lounging in.

Turning away from the crackling fire Harry turned to look over at Daphne, cocking an eyebrow as he saw she was still fully dressed in her school uniform, only without the cloak. Smiling slight Harry's eyes trailed appreciatively up Daphne's lithe figure, noticing her stocking clad legs, the slightly shorter than proper skirt she was wearing, the crisp white blouse, grey wool jumper and green and silver school tie.

"I'm not sure why you are so surprised, your reasoning for my coming was somewhat valid. Even if there were other options available, ones which wouldn't cause me to waste an entire year of my life in this school." Harry finally replied, his gaze finally meeting Daphne's. The slight smirk on her face telling Harry that she knew he was checking her out.

"And yet here you are, at school for a whole year of your life..." Daphne replied a faint smile on her face as she casual crossed her right leg over her left, leaning forwards as she did so. "I have to say I like the new face you have, very dashing, very handsome and not at all subtle. Though I do miss the emerald green eyes, they were absolutely gorgeous."

An amused smile spread across Harry's face as he heard that, his violet eyes changing briefly back to their natural emerald green color for a moment before flicking back to violet. "Yes well you got me interested, it's not often I meet Demigods from other Pantheons, especially magical Demigods. So what can I say you intrigue me Miss Greengrass, and now I am here maybe you could enlighten me on what just this little plan of yours is?"

Leaning back in her chair idly surveying Harry as she did so, a thoughtful expression crossed Daphne's face. Her left hand idly fiddling with an intricate silver bracelet that she had wrapped around her wrist. "There is an object here at the school. One that I am very… interested in acquiring. Getting to the object though, that is something I am not sure I am capable of, or at least not by myself."

"Ok, and this object is?" Harry asked shifting slight in his seat, a slight frown on his face as he attempted to work out just what it was someone like Daphne would want. The girl was the Heir to the Ancient and Noble House of Greengrass a very powerful, rich and influential family. More than that though she was also the Daughter of Freya one of the more powerful of the Norse gods. The girl could likely get nearly anything she wanted, which raised the question of what it is she wanted that required Harry's aid in acquiring.

Daphne paused as she heard Harry's question, her eyes flicking around the room taking note of the privacy charms Harry had already put in place. They were strong and well crafted, which was the only reason why she hadn't conjured any of her own. Too many wards serving the same purpose could potential negate each other after all, no Harry had done a very good job there was no point in adding to it.

"If you want my assistance Miss Greengrass then you will need to trust me, including telling me just what exactly it is you are after." Harry spoke up, his gaze never leaving Daphne as he watched her every move, noting her tension and the wary look she sent around the room. He wasn't sure if she was just being paranoid or if the Slytherins really were as backstabbing and sneaky as he had heard.

Hearing Harry's comment, Daphne turned to look at him, absentmindedly settling back into her chair a smirk on her face as she swept her long blonde hair over her shoulder, her sky blue eyes fixed on Harry's violet. "What I am after is a powerful magical object, one that was brought into Hogwarts to be protected back in my First Year. Some people believe it to have been destroyed, but I however know different."

"I take it you're talking about the Philosopher Stone?" Harry said leaning forward, suddenly very interested as his mind thought back to the information he had extracted from the minds of the Weasley family back on the steps of Gringotts.

Daphne's eyes narrowed fractionally at that, before she gave a stiff nod. "Yes, the stone was brought to Hogwarts by Dumbledore, brought here to be kept safe from Voldemort."

"Yes because that worked so well…" Harry said dryly, getting a slightly amused smile from Daphne as he did so. "But from what I heard Dumbledore destroyed the stone after the confrontation with the professor Voldemort was possessing, or that's at least what he told Michael Potter."

"You seem to be surprisingly well informed about the events here at Hogwarts." Daphne cut in a curious expression on her face. "Is it that you perhaps have a spy in the halls of Hogwarts?"

"Nothing quite so sinister, I just have a natural affinity for the mind arts." Harry replied with a nonchalant shrug, after all they were trying to build trust here, and trust needed a bit of effort from both sides.

"Yes because that's not sinister at all…" Daphne commented mildly, even as she reinforced her mental barriers, reinforcing his Occlumency. Making sure as she did so that she would advise her sister and her confidant Tracey to do the same, after all it appeared Harry had more tricks under his sleeve than she first thought. That being said she did acknowledge that Harry had told her. Maybe it was a gesture of trust from him, she could appreciate that.

"So the Philosopher Stone?" Harry prompted. "The magical object that can allow one to create the Elixir of Life and as much gold as they want."

"I see you know its value." Daphne said straightening in her seat as she did so, her hand still absentmindedly playing with her bracelet. "Well currently that very same stone is sitting safely in Dumbledore's office, trapped within a magical mirror, the Mirror of Erised."

"The mirror that shows not your face but your heart's desire." Harry commented absentmindedly a smile spreading across his face, he had heard of that artefact to it was on his list of things to liberate from Hogwarts. "Dumbledore has placed the stone within that mirror?"

Daphne cocked an eyebrow at that, her Demigod abilities allowing her to sense Harry's emotions, allowing her to get a better read on just what the Son of Aphrodite was thinking and feeling. A very useful trick she had learned that allowed her to read and control people.

"You seem to know an awful lot of information, more than any normal Fourth Year should know?" Harry said, curious as to just how Daphne had discovered this information.

Daphne paused for a second after that, before deciding to put a bit of trust in Harry just like he did with her. "Did you know that over the course of Hogwart's thousand years of history, three of the former Headmasters were from the Ancient and Noble House of Greengrass. Their portraits all hanging within the Headmaster's Office, just as they have similar portraits hanging in the Greengrass Ancestral home."

"Yes but surely those portraits have been spelled to remain loyal to Hogwarts and the current Headmaster." Harry commented, a slight frown on his face now.

A quick smile flashed across Daphne's face as she heard Harry's comment, the older boy certainly was smart. A cut above the usual dullards she had to deal with at Hogwarts. "Oh they do, fortunately though like all spells there are loopholes, and so depending on the way you phrase your question you can very easily get your ancestors to give you inside information. Which for a family like the Greengrass's who have a long storied history, with members of our family having had positions in just about every high ranking wizarding positon both in Britain and abroad it gives us a rather good information network."

Harry's eyes widened slightly at that, as he understood the sheer scope of what Daphne was talking about here, it was no wonder the Greengrass family was as influential and powerful as it was. Shaking those thoughts away for now Harry decided to focus on the task at hand. "So the Philosopher Stone in is Dumbledore's office, still held within the Mirror of Erised and not destroyed as he had led others to believe. No doubt that rumour alone provides a lot of protection for the stone."

Daphne nodded at that.

"So now I know all this what is to stop me from going after the stone alone?" Harry suddenly asked a smile passing across his face as he met Daphne's stoic gaze.

Instead of looking shocked or surprised Daphne only smirked. "Well if you want to do that, you would have to get passed me, and unless you forgot your little tricks won't work on me. Plus as the daughter of a goddess of magic and a skilled Demigod in my own right, well it wouldn't be easy."

Harry smiled wider at that, his eyes flicking down to where Daphne's hand had come to a rest on a silver bracelet around her wrist. The bracelet no doubt being a weapon, one made of divine metal. As he did so his hand began to absentmindedly play with the ring on his finger, his sword that could be summoned at a moment's notice.

"Of course I very much doubt it will come to that." Daphne suddenly spoke up again, her hand moving away from her bracelet, breaking the tension that had been frowning between them.

"Oh?" Harry queried, his posture relaxing as he settled back in his chair. "And why would that be?"

"Because of your Fatal Flaw of course." Daphne replied mildly, getting a suddenly curious look from Harry.

"And how would you know about my Fatal Flaw?" Harry asked question, wondering just how Daphne could have worked out his flaw. After all Fatal Flaws were mental or physical weaknesses that all Demigods, humans, and immortals possessed. With these flaws often causing the downfall of all beings, the flaws being particularly dangerous to Demigods. Which made Harry suddenly very curious about what Daphne was about to say next.

"It's simple really, my Demigod abilities don't just allow me to read and manipulate people's emotions, they also allow me to empathize with people to understand them better than they understand themselves." Daphne replied tilting her head to the side slightly as she looked at Harry, her long golden blonde hair falling over one of her shoulders.

"And how well do you know me?" Harry questioned.

"Not as well as I would like, your connection to Aphrodite gives you more resistance to my abilities than most, just like I too have more resistance to yours. Still though I was able to glean enough to work out your Fatal Flaw." Daphne replied with a smirk. "Your Fatal Flaw is your greed, and because of that I know I can strike a bargain with you."

"I'm listening." Harry replied, scowling as he realised that Daphne might genuinely have worked out his flaw. A Demigods Fatal Flaw was not determined at their creation, no it develops over time based on a Demigod's personality and actions. Who knows if Harry had lived a more humble life he might have developed quite a selfless personality, instead though he had grown up the Champion of Aphrodite surrounded by adoring brothers and sisters as well as a loving mother.

"Good." Daphne replied a satisfied smile passing across her face. "Now I want the Philosopher Stone, but to get it I need to break into Dumbledore's Office and extract it from a powerful semi sentient magical mirror. Now I can't do that alone but with your ability to Charmspeak, well that would make things a whole lot easier."

Harry nodded his head at that understanding. "Yes I see how I can help but I haven't yet heard a reason for why I shouldn't go ahead and take the stone for my own. After all the stone would give me unlimited wealthy as well as partial immortality, even if I would have to rely on the stone to retain it."

Daphne nodded at that. "You are right but this is where my deal comes in. You get three powerful magical artefacts, and a mutually beneficial alliance with the Ancient and Noble House of Greengrass in exchange for helping me get the Philosopher Stone."

"And what would these artefacts be?" Harry asked ignoring the offer of an alliance for now, as although useful he could very easily 'persuade' some other Noble families to help him.

"How about the Mirror of Erised, a mirror that reveals the desires of anyone who looks within it, certainly a useful tool for a Child of Aphrodite." Daphne began smiling as she saw Harry nod his head, sensing the desire for the artefact rising up within him.

"Yes I would agree it would be useful." Harry allowed with a nonchalant shrug.

"Then there is the Sword of Godric Gryffindor, a useful little item with a rather unique hiding place." Daphne said next her eyes gleaming as she once again felt Harry's emotions spike.

Harry nodded as he heard that, the Sword of Godric Gryffindor was apparently a Goblin forged sword. An intriguing item with a long and storied history, as well as something which held value to both the wizards and the Goblins. "And this hiding place would be?"

"Told to you after I have the stone in my possession." Daphne replied quickly, her tone leaving Harry no room for maneuvering. "The final item though is also a very valuable artefact that once belonged to the Founders. The lost Diadem of Rowena Ravenclaw, I know where it is. You aren't the only one who can be persuasive after all."

Harry's fingers began to drum on the arm of his chair as he heard about the last one. He had heard about the Diadem as well, his mother had let slip that that artefact was said to have been blessed by the Goddess Athena herself and given to Rowena Ravenclaw her favourite child and former Champion. He would very much like to get an important magical item like that.

Pausing before he said anything else a thought suddenly popped into Harry's head. "If you know the location of all these priceless artefacts, why don't you get them yourself?"

Daphne raised a perfectly manicured eyebrow as she heard that. "Because I have no need for those items."

Harry narrowed his eyes at that, sensing that she was being a bit economical with the truth, not that he was about to call her on it, not yet at least. "So in exchange for my assistance in getting you the Philosopher Stone, I get the Mirror of Erised, the Sword of Godric Gryffindor and the lost Diadem of Ravenclaw, as well as an alliance with your family?"

"Yes." Daphne said with a nod of her head.

Harry nodded at that. "I will agree… on the condition that I am allowed to use the stone whenever I want."

Daphne paused as she heard that, her eyes narrowing before she begrudgingly nodded her head. "It's a deal then."

"So how do you want to do this, swear an oath on the river Styx?" Harry asked leaning back in his chair, his mind racing as he considered what he had heard tonight. Already he was changing a few of his plans for the future to fit in with this fortuitous turn of events.

"No, that river is a part of the Greek Pantheon and so would hold no power over me, nor would any oath you made to me a Norse Demigoddess be as binding as it normally would." Daphne replied quickly, a hint of amusement flashing through her blue eyes. "Nice try though."

Harry shrugged at that, a grin spreading across his face. "So what do you suggest then?"

"An Unbreakable Vow, as two magical Demigods it is one of the most binding agreements we can have." Daphne replied simply.

Harry twitched as he heard that, an Unbreakable Vow wasn't something to mess around with. If a person broke one of them then they would lose their magic and die. Or in Harry and Daphne's case they would likely just lose their magic and live on as a normal Demigod, or at least that was what he theorized.

"We would need a third person to be the binder." Harry said abruptly, pointedly looking around the room, showing that they were the only ones in there.

"Good thing I had my sister standing by then isn't it." Daphne said dryly as she suddenly turned and waved over to the corner, only for the figure of Astoria to appear folding an invisibility cloak over her arm before she walked forward. Passing through Harry's privacy charm as she approached the two.

"Well played." Harry said with a nod of acknowledgement with Daphne accepting with a gracious smile. "So you can also throw that invisibility cloak in the deal as well."

Astoria scowled as she heard that, clutching the cloak tighter to her. Daphne meanwhile rolled her eyes. "You really are a greedy bastard aren't you?"

"Well of course." Harry replied with a grin.

"I will get you an invisibility cloak but you can't have that one, that's Astoria's cloak. I do know of another one in the school, I can get you that one if you're agreeable." Daphne said, throwing Astoria an assuring look as she did so.

"Ok we have a deal then, but first we need to hash out the terms of the vow." Harry said, his mind already racing as he thought of what loopholes he could slip into the vow. After all the only thing he would be agreeing to was helping Daphne get the Philosopher Stone and not taking it for himself.

"Why of course." Daphne replied with a sharp smile.

(The next morning with Harry)

It was early the next day that Harry woke up, letting out a slight yawn as he pushed himself out of bed. In the end it had taken him and Daphne nearly an hour to hash out the terms of their agreement. Terms which both sides were happy with, after which they had sworn an Unbreakable Vow, with the only thing Harry agreeing to do being to help Daphne in acquiring the Philosopher Stone and to not steal it from her or coerce someone else to do so for him.

In the end Harry had agreed, mainly because he didn't really have much desire to take the stone for his own. The immortality it offered only protected him from aging and illness and relied on him drinking an elixir every week. No he had much better ways of gaining true immortality. Nor did he have much need of it to produce gold, after all with his abilities he could get as much money as he wanted, on top of which he was already rich.

So in the end he wasn't really that interested in the Philosopher Stone, not that Daphne knew that. Once he learned that she could sense his emotions all he needed to do was manipulate them, for a normal person it would be difficult but for a Child of Aphrodite faking emotions was a simple pastime. It seemed that Daphne was too used to dealing with easily malleable mortals, she hadn't quite worked out that dealing with the Champion of Aphrodite was a whole other ball game.

Still though in the end it didn't really matter, she would get what she wanted and Harry would get a few new trinkets and an alliance with a powerful Noble House. It was only his first day at Hogwarts and he was already better off for it, who knew. On top of that though was the agreement that harry could use the stone whenever he wanted, meaning if he did fancy making himself a load of gold he now knew where to go.

Letting out a satisfied sigh Harry pushed himself up out of his bed. Stretching as he surveyed his room, it was actually quite a large single room, something that all the Slytherin Seventh Years had, as it was apparently decided that they were old enough to be trusted to have their own room, as oppose to the rest of the lower years who all had to share dorm rooms.

Getting out of his four poster bed Harry stretched again, his back cracking as he absentmindedly looked in the mirror. A slight frown on his face as he checked his features making sure they were still the same as before. After all it would be a bit awkward if his appearance suddenly changed overnight.

Smiling in satisfaction Harry nodded to the mirror, before he wandered away heading for the ensuite bathroom that was attached to his room. Personally hoping that they would have a bathtub he could use, nothing beat a nice luxurious bath in the morning. Unfortunately he was to be disappointed as the ensuite only had a shower, nowhere near as nice as a bath. Still he wasn't about to start transfiguring his room for no reason and so he grabbed a quick shower before heading down the stairs. Prepared for his first day of school.

As he wandered into the main common room passing a few tired looking students as he did so, Harry began to plan out his day. As not only did he have to show his face at classes he also had to track down the Weasley twins and relieve them of their map of the school. After all the last thing Harry wanted was to be caught out by some stupid magical map.

Entering the common room Harry heard a familiar voice calling him over.

"Hey Harry!" Jess Smethurst, one of Harry's new House mates called out. The attractive girl in question standing just next to the exit the other girls in their year; Melissa Goodwin, Lilian Gray and Katherine Reed all standing next to her. "Finally decided to wake up?"

Harry smiled at that, strolling over and dodging around a couple of younger students as he approached them. "And just how long have you been waiting for me?"

"At least a minute or two." Jess replied with a shameless smirk before she open the doorway and headed out of the common room, the others all following after having given their own greetings to Harry.

"What's the rush, it's not even eight O'clock yet?" Harry said curiously, not missing the nod and smile he received from Daphne as she and Tracey entered the common room just before he left, the two of them seemingly waiting for their own group of friends.

"Yeah but we want to get the good seats before the brats take them." Melissa spoke up, referring to their younger Slytherin year mates as she sent a cheeky grin at Harry. "The rest of the boys already went ahead to save us the best seats, we decided to wait behind for you just in case you didn't know the way to the Great Hall."

"Well thanks I appreciate it." Harry replied with a grin, patting Melissa on the shoulder as he did so and receiving a shy smile in response.

From there Harry and his house mates made their way out of the dungeons and to the Great Hall, following the same route they had previously used last night to get to the Slytherin common room, obviously it was one of the quicker paths to take.

Eventually they made it to the Great Hall and took their seats, the eight of them now monopolizing one end of the Slytherin house table, the end closest to the doors. Looking around the Great Hall as he sat down Harry noticed that his brother and a couple of his friends were already sitting at the Gryffindor table. The group having an animated discussion about something or other, completely oblivious to all else.

Taking his eyes off the group and noting to himself to make a better effort to get to know his biological brother, even if it is just for proprieties sake, Harry then began to survey the rest of the hall noticing that it was slowly filling up even as he watched.

The Hufflepuff house table and the Slytherin house table were about half full already, with the Ravenclaw table being nearly at capacity. Looking over at the Ravenclaw table Harry ended up catching the eye of Cho Chang. The pretty Asian girl he had met on the train sending Harry a warm smile, one which Harry happily returned. Making a note to himself as he did to catch up with Cho later, he had liked the girl even if he thought her friend Mariette was a pain in the arse.

Mouthing a hello to Cho, Harry gave her a brief thumbs up before he turned back to his table, the girl in question giving him a wave and a sunny smile.

"So Cho Chang then, I have to admit you aim high." Jess spoke up a smirk on her face as she looked from Harry to Cho.

Harry shrugged. "She's a nice girl."

"Ha! You dog!" Lucian Bole said loudly, a grin on his face. "Talk about inter house bonding."

"I think it's nice. I've met Cho before and she's lovely, plus she's a Ravenclaw which means she's smart." Melissa spoke up, absentmindedly picking at her food.

"Yeah better a Ravenclaw than a Gryffindor." Lillian said blandly as she began to sprinkle some fruit on her porridge, not really paying much attention to anything else.

"First thing's first, calm down I only said hello to her, plus I have literally only just met her." Harry said in amusement, very much reminded of the breakfast conversations he had with some of his brothers and sisters back when he was at Camp Half Blood. A person didn't know gossip until they had spent an hour with the children of Aphrodite, hell Harry didn't even find most of the gossip that interesting but he still got dragged into the conversation. "Besides is there really that bad a rivalry between Slytherin and Gryffindor?"

Jess shrugged as she heard that. "Sort of, it is mostly based around competition for the House Cup and the Quidditch Cup. Even then though it is mainly the younger years who get into it, the sixth years and above are too busy to get that involved in it. Plus you kind of grow out of that us versus them mentality when you realise how stupid and childish it is."

"Speak for yourself, I still enjoy getting in a good argument with a dumbass lion. Maybe even a little scrap after a Quidditch game, it's all a bit of fun." Lucian interrupted, Allister and Travis nodding along the pair making a few other comments about idiot Gryffindors. Comments that the rest of them ignored.

"Yeah it's good fun for you, but some of the younger brattier kids. Like Malfoy and his gang, they take it all a bit too far." Melissa spoke up, rolling her eyes at Lucian's comment.

Before anything else could be said on the subject Katherine spoke up, her gaze directed at the front of the hall as a sallow faced man with greasy black hair, a hooked nose and long black robes strode up the table. Stopping every so often and handing out timetables for the school year, the man using magic to send each timetable to each of the Slytherin students.

"Looks like old Snape is passing out the timetables." Katherine said as she looked over at their Head of House, Severus Snape, who was also Hogwart's resident potions master.

Glancing over and seeing Snape, Jess let out a slight groan her head falling forward into her hands. "This year's going to be even harder than last year isn't it?"

"Probably." Lillian spoke up again.

Jess let out another groan before looking up. "So Harry, what subjects are you doing this year?"

Harry blinked as he heard that before looking over at Jess, a thoughtful expression on his face as he tried to remember what he had signed up for.

"Transfiguration, Defense Against the Darks Arts, Ancient Runes and Potions." Harry said with a shrug. Transfiguration because that was the branch of subject he was a prodigy in, meaning that the subject would be a doss. Defense Against the Dark Arts because again fighting monsters and bad people, kind of Harry's thing.

As for Ancient Runes and Potions, well those were subject Harry hadn't previously had much of an interest in. Recently though he had been having ideas, ideas about rituals and potions using those subjects, with ingredients from monsters and other divine creatures. Already he had a number of experiments he wanted to try. Plus being here in Hogwarts with access to a fully furnished potions laboratory along with an entire library of runic books. All of which could be very useful.

"Damn that's a heavy work load." Lucian said with a wince, after all this was their NEWT year and those were some of the hardest subjects you could choose. None of them envied Harry his workload.

"It's not that bad." Harry said shrugging in response, not really that concerned. After all Harry had not really come here to learn, he already knew a lot about magic, his tutors had been very comprehensive in their teachings.

"Well rather you than me." Jess said. "I mean I do Charms, Arithmancy, Herbology and Potions, that's a rough work load, yours, yours sound a whole lot worse."

Harry shrugged at that, an amused smile on his face before he looked up at Professor Snape as he approached the group of seventh years, handing out the last few timetables an impatient expression on his face.

"Mr Orwell, Slytherin's newest member." Snape drawled as he came to a stop next to Harry, his dark eyes meeting Harry's violet. "I hope your year mates have explained to you just what is expected of you now you are a member of the proud and noble house of Slytherin.

"Why yes of course they have Professor Snape." Harry said, a smile on his face, subtly releasing some pheromones into the air. Manipulating the chemicals in Snape's brain, it didn't matter how good at Occlumency a person was, Harry's ability worked on a biological and chemical level. "It's an absolute pleasure to meet my new Head of House…"

"Yes, a pleasure indeed." Snape replied slightly inclining his head, his pupils dilating slightly a frown on his face before he shook his head. "Well students have a good day."

With that the man nodded to Harry and the other before he turned and carried on walking, absentmindedly handing out the rest of his student's timetables before he turned and headed for the teachers table, sending Harry another odd look as he passed.

"What the hell was that?!" Lucian said his eyes wide as he looked at the retreating back of their Head of House, his mouth slightly agape. "He was almost nice…"

"Yeah that was weird…" Jess said as she too looked over at Snape.

Harry didn't reply not really in the mood to discuss Snape, he had seen from the Weasley's memories that the man was a dick, currently he had no time for that shit. Instead he looked over at the Gryffindor table, his eyes narrowing slightly as he saw Fred and George getting up, the pair of them heading out of the hall, whispering amongst themselves as they did so.

"Hey I will catch up with you later." Harry said absentmindedly as he stood up, saying goodbye to his house mates as he grabbed a piece of toast sticking it in his mouth as he left the table, heading for the doors. His gaze easily locking onto the retreating backs of the Weasley twins, it was about time he got that pesky map, before they saw something on it that they shouldn't.
