To jammies2000: Hermione was being an evil witch when she did that, wasn't she. She starting to show the Snape in her. Of course the reason that the Ravenclaw's would talk to her is because she is smart and more fitting for Ravenclaw. Of course we can't forget that the hat said that Harry didn't have a bad of a mind. Now that Malfoy knows things will get a lot harder on William and Severus made a mistake in not changing Williams voice. So when he speaks people know that he's really Harry. Thanks for the review.
To B00kw0rm92: I decided to place both William and Hermione in Ravenclaw as they would get bullied by the Slytherin's and not liked by the Gryffindors.
To Severus-is-my-man5690: I'm glad you liked what McGonagall said to Snape. Dumbledore really has issues.

Chapter 10: The Phoenix And The Voice
True to his father's word William and Hermione's eggs hatched before breakfast on Friday. Hermione noted that they looked very ugly but a book that William had checked out from the Library told him that they would get finer-looking as the weeks passed. Hermione had decided to call her phoenix Melody while William named his Godric, after his middle name. All the Ravenclaws wanted to help feed them both but William and Hermione wanted it to be them that took care of them
In Charms Ron wouldn't talk to William or Hermione even though they were learning the same charm, The Sparkling Charm. William and Hermione had practiced both of these several days ago and were the first students to get them right. When the bell rang Ron hurried out of the class, leaving William and Hermione to wonder if Ron was going to blab about whom they were related to.
"I wish things were back to normal," Hermione muttered.
"I know, but Ron has to get over this himself," William told her.
Hermione sighed and nodded.
William was very glad that the next day was Saturday. He wanted to spend time with his father and find out what he planned on doing over Christmas break. He hoped that he would be able to see his father over the Christmas break and not have to wait until summer. Hermione meanwhile wanted to go and visit Hagrid the next day and begged William to come with her as well.
"I don't think that Hagrid will want to see me," William told her.
"Why not?" Hermione asked. "He was all about defending Professor Snape last year."
William remembered but that was back when he didn't know that Severus was his father. He wasn't sure how Hagrid would react to him being related to the man that he had tried to get sacked.
"Come on," Hermione begged.
William sighed.
"Alright, but if he starts to ask me loads of questions that I don't like then I'm leaving," he said.
"Fair enough," Hermione said, smiling.
And so the next day William and Hermione left Ravenclaw tower and headed down to see Hagrid. Hagrid shocked William by being delighted in seeing them both. When he told William that he knew that he had been Harry, both William and Hermione was shocked.
"How did you know?" Hermione asked.
"Fred told me," Hagrid answered. "Anyway, I'm glad that Snape got you away from the Dursley's. So why haven't you sent Hedwig to see me?"
William bit his lip.
"Uncle Vernon killed her," William said.
Hagrid went beet red.
"THAT ROTTEN DURSLEY," he roared, making them both jump. "HOW DARE HE DO THAT TO HER."
"Calm down, Hagrid, Professor Snape gave us phoenixes," Hermione told him.
Hermione's words shocked Hagrid so much that he stopped yelling.
"He gave you both phoenixes," he said, amazed.
Both William and Hermione nodded.
"Well, I'll be," he muttered. "Oh you'll like them. Phoenixes are the best pets in the world, next to owls."
"I figured that much," William said. "I read up on them and I'm amazed at how much they can do."
Hagrid beamed at him.
"So how do you like having a dad?" Hagrid asked.
William grinned at the question.
"He treats me great," William said. "He got me clothes and adopted me. Of course he was really angry at what Uncle Vernon had done and he and Aunt Petunia know each other. Of course they hate each other as well."
Hagrid didn't look surprised.
"And him and mum were friends," William added.
Hagrid didn't look surprised at that, either.
"Of course they were friends," Hagrid boomed. "Of course they didn't talk to each other after he called Lily the M word. I watched him try and patch things up but things didn't turn out. But at least she got a wonderful son out of it all and Mrs. Granger got a wonderful daughter as well."
Hermione blushed.
"My dad said that he was sorry about what happened," William told him. "Is that true?"
Hagrid nodded.
"Your dad didn't like to harm anyone," Hagrid told him. "He's really decent for someone that used to work for You-know-who. He has a lot of morals and such. I think that you both should be proud that you're related to him."
Hermione looked at her shoes.
"Hermione, what's wrong?" Hagrid asked.
"I called yelled at him," Hermione revealed. "I said that he wasn't my father."
Hagrid came over and forced her to look at him.
"Severus Snape is a good wizard, a decent wizard," he said. "If he says that he's sorry that he did what he did, then he is. I think that you really should call him dad instead of Professor Snape all the time. That would really make his day, I think."
Hermione smiled weakly at him.
"Alright, I'll try," Hermione said and William was glad that something was happening.
Both William and Hermione left Hagrid's hut and headed back to the castle. As they headed back William noticed that the Slytherin team was heading to the pitch. He pointed this out to Hermione.
"Do you think their up to something?" William asked her.
"I hope not but let's go," Hermione said.
When they both arrived William and Hermione noticed that the Slytherin team must have interrupted the Gryffindors practice. William also noticed that they had a new Seeker, a Gryffindor boy that William had never seen before. Of course William saw Malfoy and wondered what he was doing on the team.
"Oh look its Snappy's children," Malfoy teased.
Only one Slytherin laughed at this.
"Shove off, Malfoy," William snapped. "What are you doing on the Slytherin Quidditch team?"
Malfoy smirked at him.
"Professor Snape allowed me to be on the team," Malfoy said.
"Yah, probably to see how quickly you can get hurt," Hermione teased. "Want to place any bets on how long you'll last?"
The Gryffindors all laughed at that.
"No one asked your opinion, you filthy little Mudblood," Malfoy said.
The Gryffindors all yelled in response to what he had said. William had heard Draco's father call his father that, but this was the first time that Draco had called Hermione that and he didn't know what it meant.
"You'll pay for that one, Malfoy," Ron said, taking out his wand.
To William and Hermione's horror the spell missed Malfoy and hit Ron in the chest. Ron doubled over and started to throw up slugs. William decided that he would take Ron to his father.
"Dad, Ron's spell missed its mark," William told Severus when they entered.
Severus jumped to action and helped William and Hermione place him in a seat.
"Get that bucket, William," Severus said. "I'll get the antidote prepared at once."
William ran to get a bucket and gave it to Ron.
"Well better out then in," Severus said, looking at Ron with cold eyes. "Who was Weasley trying to curse?"
"Malfoy," William said. "He called Hermione that word that his father called you."
"Oh Mudblood," Severus snarled, spitting the word out like it was something nasty that he had to eat.
"What does it mean?" Hermione asked.
"It means dirty blood," Severus snarled. "Mudblood is a really foul name for someone that's Muggleborn or a half-blood. There are some wizards, like the Malfoy's, that think their better then others because their what wizards call pureblood."
"That's horrible!" William said.
"It's disgusting," Ron said, looking paler.
"And it doesn't matter," Severus said. "Look at Longbottom! He's a pureblood and he can hardly turn a cauldron the right way up. Anyway there isn't a spell that our Hermione can't do."
Hermione went pink.
"It's a disgusting thing to call someone," Ron said, jumping into the conversation. "Dirty blood, see. Common blood. It's ridiculous. Most wizards today are half-blood anyway. If we hadn't married Muggles we would have died out."
"And my family would of died out as well," Severus told them. "My mother was a witch and my dad was a muggle. He died drinking himself to death, but she never regretted saving her family line. Now let me get that potion started."
And he left the room.
"I can't believe that he was allowed on the team?" William said.
"Yah, but at least we don't have to see him all day."
"To true," William said, as Ron threw up more slugs.
An hour later Ron was slug-free and able to leave the office. He wasn't at all pleased with what happened but he had to admit that Severus was taking having a son and daughter well enough.
"Enough to be our friend again," William asked.
"We'll see," Ron said.
"That's good enough for me," Hermione said.
Later that night both William and Hermione were busy doing their homework when William heard something that made his flesh crawl. A disembodied voice was floating around him.
"Come…come to me….Let me rip you…Let me tear you…Let me kill you…"
"W-What," William gasped.
Hermione stared at him.
"What's wrong?" Hermione asked.
"I heard a voice," William told her. "It sounds like it wants to kill someone."
Hermione stared at him even though she was worried about him.
