Chapter 10

When Halus opened his eyes he found himself back in the great hall where everyone was watching in wonder. Suddenly the hat called out the name of one of the houses.

"HOGWARTS"

Halus stood up and walked to the table next to Kalima who smirked at him as his tie turned black with the crest of the school. Sitting down next to his fiancé Halus looked at Hermione and Draco and found their ties to have changed as well and been moved to his table as well. Halus watched the rest of the sorting and their house got 20 more students. As he looked up at the headmaster he found him to be angry that his plan hadn't worked.

Halus

Hearing his name Halus looked around for the speaker only to find no one.

suddenly his eyes stopped when he saw in the far corner behind the head table a woman dressed in white sheer robes with a pendent of the crest of the school looking at him.

Hogwarts?

yes, tonight come to the lake we must speak.

nodding his head Halus replyed.

till tonight my lady Hogwarts.

Kalima saw Halus looking at the corner and looked over to find a woman so gorgeous looking at Halus.

She looked at the woman and gasped as it came to her.

That's Hogwarts.

looking up at Halus Kalima smiled as he leaned down and kissed her lips. "i'm starved. what;s for dinner?" she laughed "even when you make a scene you're still thinking about your stomch. You are so much like Acheron. No wounder you're his son. You know Grandma made me remind you, you promised to go see her tonight."

Halus smirked "i would never forget to go see her. hell i have a gift for her."

Kalima winced. Any gift for Apollymi ment it was dead, needing to be killed or you were just sick and twisted in some way that she being the grandson of her son yeah, Halus had that sick twisted head as his father when pissed #1: when faced with a child of the gods. Make sure they don't have family that are the titled "god/goddess of distruction and death".

Kalim smirked as she thought about her own gift for her great-great grandmother. it was a t-shirt that said:

Distruction is good for my soul. But it sucks to be you-Goddess of Distruntion

Kalima smirked 'yeah that's Apollymi for yeah.'

The feast went on and everyone was exscued. Halus smirked and found Hogwarts herself to become visiable to those of their house.

"welcome my children follow me and i shall show you to your new house."

Draco looked at the woman in shock and awe and was somewhat drooling if not for hermione closing his mouth.

"please you're drooling." and walked off chuckling.

Hogwarts stopped just befroe the stairs to the other floors they watched in shock as a protrit meterialized out of the very walls of frame was a dark gold with a tint of mararoon on the edges. the picture itself was that of the four founders. they were seated at a large table with food and a garden in the background. Godric gryffindor wore red robes and was arguing with Salazr slytherin who wore green robes while the two woman one who wore blue robes Rowena Ravenclaw while Helga Hufflepuff wore yellow robes each set of robes had the hogwarts crest on their left brest.

"I told you what the password would be Slytherin!" Godric yelled at the man drinking his tea.

"And I told you what i chose as the password.... Good gods above."

Salazar turned to notice Hogwarts before them with the children.

"Hogwarts, my dear forgive us for our dispute. what can i do for you my dear child?"

smirking at the founders who she liked to call mother or father when speaking to them for not only building her but also gave her a body to take form when she liked she spoke in a melodic voice.

"For you and Godric can come to an agreement on a password so the students of my house may journey to bed Father."

Rowena smiled as she walked over to Salazar and spoke softly in his ear that all heard.

"dear let the little ones sleep tonight you and godric can continue your arguement later but for the children dear."

Reaching up and taking her hand in his, he kissed the palm of it

"alright my love. Godric what do you say, come to an agreement on a passwword and then take turnes every week?"

The dark haired man looked at him and nodded when he felt helgas hands on his shoulders.

"very well you may have this week and i shall have next week. does that survice you great lord of slytherin?"

Salazar smirked at Godric mocking of his title.

"yes oh great lord of the lions."

the two stood up and shook hands then Salazar hissed in parsoultoung that noone seem to understand

'Parsoultoung'

Everyone looked at the man like he was strange when Halus asked back in the same hissing languauge.

"Great Lord Slytherin what is parsoultoung?"

The Founders and Hogwarts looked at Halus and gasped when they looked at Halus.

Salazar then shocked everyone as they watched him step out of the painting and stand befroe them.

"Who are you my young wizard? You have a strange force around you that i have not seen in a millinium."

Halus held out his hand and Salazar took it and Halus let him see his past and who he was and how he was able to speak Parsoultoung. When Halus let go of Salazar's hand he found the founder to be speachless. Rowena ran from the painting and came to his side. running her hands over his face she turned to Halus and snapped

"What have you done to my husband you little wizard?"

Halus touched her hand "fear not great witch, he is merely accessing my memories of my past that made me the wizard that stands befroe you. he will explian in a moment when he returnes from talking with my grandmother."

Rowena turned to him "and who is your grandmother child?"

Kalima smirked "The Atlanian Goddess of Distruction Apollymi."

Rowena gasped "Apollymi is your grandmother, my i have not heard from here in ages. how is she?"

Halus and Kalima smiled "you are welcome to visit her tonight with us, it's her birthday we are going to see her tonight."

Suddenly Salazar unfroze and gasped

"By the Gods. You're the son of Acheron. I must ask forgiveness on my stupid Heirs actions. I would very much like to speak with you some times young man. Just come to this protrit and i shall take us to a place to speak. I have so much i wish to speak of."

Rowena smiled at her husband as Halus nodded his head.

"Dear, Apollymi is his grandmother. I am going with them to see her again you know how much i loved talking to her."

Salazar smirked at Halus

"Well that explains the force i saw around you young man. you're the child of the gods. and not just any gods, the Atlantian gods."

Draco looked at Halus and Kalima

"Wait i thought they were made up the gods i mean?"

Kalima smirked at the blonde wizard.

"who do you think gave man kind magic in the first place?"

Halus then said the password when he looked at the first years and found their eyes to be drooping and stumbling on their feet as not to fall asleep where they stood.

once the door opened Halus waved his hand every first year that was falling on their feet was transported to their beds and dressed in their PJ's and tucked into bed.

leaving Hogwarts, Kalima, Draco, Hermione and Halus in the common room joined by the founders themselves.

Halus offered the seats to the woman first then waved his hand and tea on a plater appereed along with a creature Halus had never seen before.

the creature had ears the size of a man's foot and was no taller than Halus's waist.

"Cans Leos helps yous sirs?"

Halus loked at the creature who had big eyes and a cute little nose.

"I'm sorry did i take this from the kitchens?"

The creature wrung his fingers as if scared to be hit.

"Yes sir is was cleanings it for the potions masters sirs."

Halus looked at the tea and snapped hisfingers and it disappered.

"would you be so kindly to get us some tea please leo."

the little creature burst into tears and Halus looked at everyone as it disapeared with a crack.

"Draco why did the creature start to cry?"

"thats leo, his last master beat him if he didn't do everything perfect. dumbldore svaed him and brought him to hogwarts when his master was killed. and he's called a house elf. they must have a master after loosing one or they go insaine or worse they die."

Halus gasped when leo apperered again with tear for everyone there.

kneeling down to his hight Halus asked the elf a question that had everyone gasping even the founders.

"Leo, would you like to be my house elf? You see i am new to this world and do not know the customs that are required for a wizard of my statues. I would pay you greatly to help mold me into the best type of wizard i can be. I could not sit by and watch you torment yourself by going insaine because you have no master, You see my grandmother although is the Goddess of death and distruction is also the Goddess of life. So you see I have the same look on life as she does. All living creatures deserve a chance to live. With me you would get that chance. What do you say leo? will you join my family?"

Leo was shaking till he through his arms around Halus and wheeped "Yes sirs, Leos Wills bes yours houses elfs sirs."

Turning to Draco Halus asked him what to do next and everyone watched as Draco bound Leo to the Potter line. His once Hogwarts uniforme was replaced by Dark Midnight blue robes with the potter house crest on the left brest of the front of the robes. under neith he wore elven pants with a tunic that had the colors of the Potter around in his new look Leo found around his neck was a pendent of the symbol that Halus had around his own neck as did Kalima. Looking up at his new master Leo asked.

"Master Potter, what is this symbol?"

"Call me Halus please Leo, and that symbol is of my grandmother the Goddess Appolymi."

Later that night once everyone was a sleep Halus changed his school robes into jeans and a polo shirt that he had made to have his grandmothers symbol on the left side front corner pocket.

Looking up as he heard someone coming down he found Draco, Hermione coming down dressed in what the wizard world called Muggle clothing. Hermione wore a mini skirt with a polo red shirt with her hair up in a pony tale. Draco wore black jeans with a loose buisness shirt with the sleeves rolled at the elbows and his hair was gel free and hung loosely around his face.

Turning to face the founders and Hogwarts he smiled to find them as well in Muggle cloths.

"Ready?"

Everyone nodded and Halus smirked.

"before we go you must know the rules when visiting my grandmother. Do not I repeat do not name the goddess of the hunt grandmother hates he with a passion so much that if she could she would kill my aunt artemis."

Everyone nodded and Halus smirked

"Does everyone have a gift for grandma?"

And with everyones nod Halus and Kalima told them to take hold of their hands and together the group were gone in a flash of light from the grounds of hogwarts and from dumbldores pryiing eyes.
