Hello everyone, here is another chapter for Witches of Hogwarts. I don't own anything about Harry Potter, but I own the new characters you see running around this story. So thanks for reading and please review, I won't stop writing but it's so awesome when ya'll do.
Juliet's point of view-three weeks later…
The year was flying by as it was Christmas time, I decided to stay as well as Mione. Our family was all spending it here in the castle along with the very few, somehow the Weasley boys are all here this year. I was sitting at the long Slytherin table as students ate before boarding the train home for the Holidays.
"Have a great Holiday Jay," Draco said placing a small kiss to my temple as he walked off. I was the only Slytherin staying which was fine by me.
"Wish you didn't have to be here all alone Jay, but I will write you daily." Daphne said she was happy to see her little sister and I in turn was happy for her. Millie and Avery hugging me goodbye, as did the Patil twins, Lav, Cho, Sue and Hannah before leaving for their Holidays.
I stood walking out of the great hall, the twins were talking to Mione, and Ronald to Harry. I would busy myself I didn't need company, I thought as I walked to the Library alone.
I was at an ends I needed a place to work, a place unlike the Room of requirement, I needed a room for us. I walked in Madam Price just smiled at me as I headed to the very back, it was a circular lone table we always sat at.
"I need a room, not any room but a room with secret passages to connect the houses. So my followers can get to it, a place to plan, to work in secret. A gathering place for us," I was muttering like a mad witch.
"Are you true of heart child," I stood wand out but nothing was there, I was alone as normal.
"I mean you no harm little one, but are you true of heart?" it said again, I hated the feeling of no control. I could kill what I couldn't see, let alone defend myself, and I felt no presence near me.
"How would I know if I am? I have killed," I muttered feeling a warmth near me, I turned but nothing.
"You are grown for your years, an old soul in a young body. You have vast knowledge, a true Ravenclaw, but your loyalty is that of the greatest Hufflepuff. Your Bravery knows no bounds, your would do anything in your power for those you hold dear to your heart, so much power some you have yet to touch. Cunning like a Slytherin my child, but a heart pure as the white snow. I will grant you your wish, a room like no other a room for you to plan. I see your plan and I desire to see it happen. Hogwarts stands with you Juliet Black," than the voice was gone, I was wondering why Madam Price hadn't rushed over to lecture me on being too loud.
But a bright white light burst from the far wall, I rushed forward, when normal people would have fled. It was warm and welcoming the light didn't hurt my eyes as I watched stone moving showing me a door way to which I walked right through. Stairs leading downwards so I walked seeing a room it was stunning, desks with four doors, a symbol above each door. A large fire place as I needed to show this to Hermione, as she was the only follower here over the Holiday.
"This is perfect, so very perfect," I smiled rushing up the staircase with the Slytherin symbol when a female voice stopped me.
"Leaving so soon Juliet Black," I spun around my wand already out and pointed at the gold frame was four people dressed right out of the medieval times. I walked back down but never lowering my wand, my eyes in a dead set.
"And you are?" I said in a clear voice not showing fear. "I am Rowena Ravenclaw, this is my husband Salazar Slytherin. My sister Helga Hufflepuff and her husband Godric Gryffindor." I watched as she introduced each member, I was a little awe struck to say the least.
"And you hid down here, I am sure the students of your school would love to meet you. In fact my sister would, she's a muggle born to my pureblood. I need to get her, this experience can't be missed." I was now on pins and needles wanting to get her.
"And what house is your sister in?" it was Helga who asked "She is in Gryffindor," I smiled.
"See Salazar a Snake and a Griffon can get along just fine," Godric elbowed the tall black haired man, his face was long and serious.
"I see," he said but his vivid gray eyes on me "I have the very best of friends in every house. It matters not their blood or house," I said in a firm tone.
"This is what we wanted all along, for the houses to unite. Dark times are coming Juliet Black, and you will meet danger head on, you will be forced to make decisions. Ones that will eat you from the inside, I am a gifted seer and I have seen you. You will be tested on all fronts, but your heart is true," Rowena said as I stared at her.
"Well than, I assume I am in for a few rough years here at Hogwarts." I said a little defeated but strong willed.
"We will be here to help you along the way," but you are being searched for, come back after dark little one," Godric said his arm draped over Helga. She wasn't tall, but she was curvy with light blondish red curls, to Rowena's tall form, her long black hair braided down her right side, her stunning blue eyes felt like they were looking in to my soul. Her arm wrapped around Salazar's his gray eyes watchful.
"I best go," I said with a slight bow before turning fast heading up the hill hearing her faint words.
"Our great great great great great great granddaughter will change our world my Snake," I near stopped, but knowing they are searching for me kept my feet moving up the stairs.
I touched the door and it opened enough for me to slip through, I saw the Common room door opening as I leaped over the arm chair, clamouring to my feet sitting as Uncle walked in.
"There you are child, you had us worried," he smiled "I was here the whole time, sorry to have worried you Uncle. Where is Hermione by chance I have to talk with her?" I asked him.
"She is looking for you little one," he said his fingers trailed in my hair as I stood at his side giving him a bright smile, it softened his features.
"Run along, I will send word you were reading in your Common room," and with that I was gone.
I walked through the hall's looking for her familiar bob of brown curls, nothing until I reached nearer to the Library. She was walking down the stone corridor with Fred and George at her side, I shook off the lingering anger.
"Hermione, we need to talk….alone," I made a point to emphasize the word alone seeing the three turn towards me.
"Of course," and with that she walked away from the ginger haired demon spawn, I watched their faces fall as she did so and a little satisfaction came over me.
"Let's go into the Library," I ushered her in a rather excitable way, and she smiled seeing I at least wasn't going to curse her mates.
"What's with the fuss Jay?" she questioned as we walked through the rows of old tomes, I ran my finger tip over them as we walked.
"It is something special Hermione," was all I could say as she gave me a nod of understanding. We stood at the wall where I saw the bright light, but nothing.
"It was here," I said putting my hand on the wall, a Delta symbol light up in a shimmering white light, as Hermione stumbled back a gas escaping her lips.
"Come on before the gingers come and ruin it," I snapped taking her hand nearly dragging her down the flight of steps, we both heard the door close right after walking through.
"Juliet, where are we?" she mumbled "I was talking to myself in the Library, when a voice came and it gave me what I need. A room for us, to work, plan, invent for our group Hermione. It's happening little by little we are changing things," I whispered but my tone was ecstatic knowing what was going on.
We walked into the now warm room seeing it fully, it had portraits from all houses, certain things armchairs and such to make each girl feel welcomed. It all went well together, Hermione's face was lit up in wonder as she looked over the volumes of books.
"Told you Godric, I knew she wouldn't be gone very long I doubt it has been fifteen minutes." I blushed was I that transparent?
"And you are?" Hermione chimed in standing next to me looking at Salazar.
"I child am Salazar Sylvester Slytherin, this is my wife Rowena Juliet Ravenclaw. And her little sister Helga Hufflepuff and her husband Godric Gryffindor," Hermione had gone pale white her eyes wide as saucers.
"Juliet?" she looked at me as I gave a firm yes "Oh Merlin it's an honour, a real pleasure to meet you," she said rather fast.
So it began, Hermione was firing off questions in rapid fire much to their amusement. I just sat and watched thinking about the rings, but I heard everything they spoke of.
"I never wanted my Snakes to turn out as such young one. Juliet is leading them moulding them to how I wanted them, blood isn't important." I heard but I was still lost in thought, enough to where I didn't tell him I wasn't leading or moulding them, I was scaring them into it.
This conversation went on for another couple hours every now and then I would add something in, but for the most part Hermione was talking and I thinking.
"It is time for the feast, up you go. We have so much time dears, Juliet don't let the weight of our world bring you to your knees." Helga said in a cheerful voice, as I gave a firm nod.
Hermione was up talking to Godric as I stood "For someone so young you look to have wise thoughts," Rowena said as I gazed at her.
"I was thinking yes, I don't have all the time in the world. I have years until I and Harry change things, it's unknown if either of us will achieve successes. I may only be eleven but I am Lady Black, and with that name comes so very much," I bowed before taking Hermione's hand.
"She reminds me of you my love," Salazar's deep baritone voice said as her words were said in a softer serine voice "Indeed she does Salazar, but I see you in her ways," Hermione looked awed once she figured it out, I was related to three founders.
"I dare say Rowena she is like you both, but I see myself in her steel reserved loyalty to her school, friends and family. It will take death to make her go down another path." Helga smiled, as Hermione was mumbling.
"Hermione and Juliet, walk through your separate doors, only the people Juliet has chosen can walk through. With a simple touch of their hand, go hurry," Rowena smiled as I walked up the Slytherin stairs, I felt peace right now.
As I walked it was surreal this was happening, the founders are with me. Understanding dawned what I was doing was right, no matter the cost, unless it meant Hermione was hurt in some way. It gave me renewed energy and faith, that at least I stood a chance.
I walked into the empty common room, before leaving it heading to catch up with Hermione.
But luck wasn't on my side.
"Little snake," was called out in a familiar voice it was Fred as his voice was more husky than George who was soft spoken.
"Come on you can't still be mad, Charlie said you calmed down loads," now that was George.
"Just because I am not cursing you, doesn't mean I am not still angry. What is it you two want?" I snapped but they just tossed their lanky arms around my small shoulders.
"Now our little spitfire isn't telling us anything." "But we see you, we are rather observant we are, right o brother of mine" they coursed always matching each other's sentences or at least finishing them.
"We want in," they said causing me to stop dead, I gave them a stern look.
"Come on we will be an asset Jay, just think about it. You know Mione wants us in, and we want in." the smiled before running off knocking Ronald to the floor.
"Where did they run off to?" I heard from behind seeing Hermione running her wild hair blowing.
"No clue, all I know is they want in," with that she smiled. "I am not sure, I understand that they are smart but it's you. I don't want you side tracked with them around, I don't feel we have time," I said feeling crappy for hurting her feelings.
"I understand, but you have to give me this chance. They won't distract me Jay, just know they are fully commitmented to us," she said as I gave a loud sigh running my fingers through my hair which was now very untamed and curly.
"Yeah I will think about it," I sighed as we continued to walk with the few lone students, but honestly I loved this castle it was home.
Thanks for reading this small chapter the next will be much longer, I was just busy. Please review!
