Author's Note: Here's a new chapter, hopefully it makes up for the last horrible one. I got my first flame and I have to say, it is really amusing, no offense of course. I just want to say thanks you to everyone to take the time to review, whether it is a flame or praise or others.

for the love of Suzaku, seiryu, Genbu and Byakko, I haven't even confirm with you guys who Harry will pair up with and someone already made an assumption. As for age factors, don worry. Trust me, I have a plan.

Questions and Answers:

Aristoklos (): calm down, you misunderstood. I wasn't going to write slash so early in the story. I want to write maybe four or five stories at least and by then Harry will be overage. You know, you forgot something. It is hard for Harry to have relationships going on when he is only 10, he haven't even gone through puberty which I have mention multiple times. How is he suppsoe to feel lust? The only reason I want pairings decided so early is because the pairings will affect the story flow. Different pairings will have different outcomes.

MoonPrincess623: forgive me for being a little dense but what kids under the lake are you talking about?

Chapter 11: Slytherin's Quidditch mistake

Lavender Brown gave a scream as her broom suddenly did a somersault and she clung onto it tightly for dear life. All the Gryffindor and Slytherin students were swooping through the air and all sorts of noises were being emitted by them.

Today was their third flying lesson with Madame Hooch, their instructor. Even so, as much experience as she have, the students still have to experience themselves the right way to fly a broom hence the reason they are in the sky.

Most of the students were doing alright. There of course still the occasional unexpected swoop accompanied with a shriek or scream of terror but so far there are no injuries. The Gryffindors doing most of the yelling while the Slytherins were more compose. Even so, most of them were doing fine.

Harry on the other hand can't understand why the other students were kicking up such a fuss. He was enjoying himself a lot, whipping through the air on the old school brooms. It was so easy to control the broom, a slight nudge and the broom will turn anyway you want. He only wish he could fly a little faster.

It was about then when he felt a wind gushed past him. Turning around, he saw Malfoy flying away laughing loudly. He was about to gave a warning when a black shape flew upwards in front of him, scaring Harry and making him lose his balance. At the same time, another black shape flew in a circle around him once making him give a yelp in fear.

Once he regained his balance, he saw Goyle and Crabbe heading towards him again, with matching grins on their face. Feeling fear strike, he was about to fly away when Malfoy swooped past him again, making him turn somersaults in the air. Harry quickly looks for Madame Hooch but she was no way to be found. By then, Crabbe and Goyle had flown past him again with Harry in the middle. Twin jets of wind buffeted into Harry, making his eyes watered.

Harry felt angry. The other students had noticed the commotion and had slowed down to watch. Some of the girls were screaming in fear and Ron was shouting abuses at the three Siytherins. Nevertheless, he was too far away to help and won't reach Harry in time.

Harry saw the Slytherins charging at him again. Quickly, he flew upwards since they were coming at him from three directions. As soon as Harry sped upwards, the trio followed Harry upwards. Harry could hear Malfoy shouting instructions at Crabbe and Goyle to tail him. Suddenly, Harry though of an idea.

Instinctively, he sprinted downwards again as Malfoy, Goyle and Crabbe followed Harry close behind. This time, the three of them were so close they could have caught his broom's twigs.

The ground came closer and closer as Harry flew downwards vertically. Carefully, harry estimated. Just as he was about to hit the ground, Harry swerved sideways sharply, spinning round and round forwards parallel against the ground before flying upwards diagonally and coming to a stop.

There was a horrified scream as Harry disappeared sideways suddenly and a loud thud followed by loud cracks that rang ominously across the Hogwarts grounds. All was silent, and then some of the Slytherin and Gryffindor girls scream in horror.

Once spinning gradually to a stop, Harry turned around and looked. On the ground was a heap of bodies consisting of the three slytherin boys. All of them were motionless and the three broomsticks had snapped into pieces, sticking out of the pile. From where he was, Harry could see blood covering the robes of the knock out boys.

Turning pale, Harry and the other students just looked at the bodies in horror. Harry saw a black shape raced out of the Hogwarts as Madame Hooch also flew towards them form a far away shed across the pitch they were flying on.

Madame Hooch look horrified and shouted "what happen? " before flying towards the still unconscious Slytherins on the ground. She gave them one glanced before pulling out her wand and levitating the three unconscious forms towards the castle. She shouted at everyone to get of the brooms and class is dismissed before disappearing through the Hogwarts doors.

By then, the earlier black shape has arrived and Professor McGonagall immediately took charge of all of them. She asked everyone to go back to their dormitories and take a break till the next class.

Harry and Ron were about to walk off to when Professor McGonagall called Harry. "Potter, you are coming with me."

Feeling his heart sink, Harry turned around and followed Professor McGonagall. Ron gave him a sympatric glance and muttered he will wait in the common room for Harry. Giving Ron a hollowed smile, Harry left with Professor McGonagall.

Walking through the hallways, Harry tried to defend himself. "Professor, I didn't do anything. Malfoy, he…"

"Save it, Potter. I saw everything"

Harry felt his heart sank, he was going to be expelled, he was sure of it. They walk silently up two staircase before Harry wondered where they are going, probably the headmaster's office though Harry bitterly.

They turned into the fourth floor corridor and walk towards the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom. Now Defense Against the Dark Arts or DADA was though by Professor Quirrell, a young man with a turban wrapped around his head. The professor was always stuttering and has become something akin to a joke to all the students. He had tried teaching everyone with a form hand but his stuttering ruin the whole effect and when people ask why he wears a turban. He will turn pink and switch to other subjects instantly.

At his classroom, Professor McGonagall gave a knock and went in. Harry waited outside confusedly.

"Professor Quirrell, may I borrow Wood for a moment?"

Harry heard the request and looks up confused. "Wood? She's going to spank me?"

Harry heard Professor Quirrell gave his consent and Professor McGonagall emerged from the class followed by a ginger hair boy who was wearing a puzzled expression. Harry was starting to feel really alarm since the boy seem to have a very hard hand from the appearance of his lanky muscular frame.

"Potter, this is Oliver is the captain of our Quidditch team. Wood, I have found you a new seeker."

The boy's face lighted up in delight. He started circling him and express his delight at Harry's body size and seem really suitable.

"Ever played Quidditch before Potter?" seeing Harry shook his head, he said "never mind, we will train you properly."

Harry look at Professor McGonagall in relief, he wasn't going to be expelled. Professor McGonagall was giving a rare genuine smile. "I hope you will train hard Potter or I might change my mind about this. Goodness know, we need a better team than last year, flatten in the last match against Slytherin, I could not look at Severus for a week. Your father will be proud, he was a Quidditch player to.


Later, Harry had an enjoyable day talking about Quidditch together. Ron was estactic, apparently Harry was the youngest seeker in a century. It only became more fun when Ron's brothers, Fred and George came down and told them about how Malfoy and his goons were given detentions for a whole week and 30 points had been taken from Slytherin. They spent the rest of the night teaching Harry the ins and outs of Quidditch and as Fred and George were on the team too. They were more than happy to give out pointers to Harry.

It was later, while Harry was getting into bed. He accidently lay on top of a coil of smooth black scales and gave a yelp of fright and jumping up in fright. Madara gave a hiss of annoyance and scolded Harry. "Watch it! I am not made out of sssssstone you know."

"Madara, you are back!" Harry cried out in surprise and quickly hushes himself remembering that Ron and the others were not far away.

"Where have you been? I have been ssssso worried."

In a few moments, Madara had told Harry everything from the fire phoenix to the corridors under the lake. It seems that Madara had ended up in some sort of chamber after slithering for a while past the snake skin. It had look for the owner of the snake skin but there was no trace of th snake anywhere. Even so, there were many places where he could smeel the snake and he had even managed to find three more snake skin. The chamber was huge and was filled with pillars and marble lined the floor. There was even a huge stonce face there but Madara couldn't recognize him. Madara had got lost in the sewers after wandering around carelessly hence the reason he didn't come back for so long. In the end, he had somehow ended up in the Hogwarts plumbing and from there, he managed to get out.

"I don't know Harry, it was exciting. I mean another sssssnake that is like me. I wissssh I could have found it."

It was around then Harry gave a wide yawn. Madara look at Harry carefully. "Time for bed, you can fill me in on your doingsssss tomorrow."

Harry nodded sleepily and soon went to sleep with Madara coiled up on his pillow. The snake's soft breathing, soothing him to sleep.


Hate it or love it? tell me please. Anyway, what do you think of Oliver Wood? I want to squeeze him in somewhere but I haven't decided where and I want some public opinion. Please?
