Chapter 26: Musings
Godric sat in the privacy of Severus' office. He knew that he needed out of the castle, but he found that exiting places was the worst thing that he could do. It was as if the students were rabid, especially the Hermione girl. She scared him, and that was a feat. He thought that he had to look over his shoulder every time he entered a main part of the castle. It appeared as if the dungeons were the only place that she didn't come to. Except when it was time for her to attend her potions lesson like a good student. Godric rubbed his eyes and looked at something that was in his hands. It was the chart that had answered the problem of just who Hazel had become when she had run away. It was strange to see the name and to know that his daughter had become someone else in order to live a happy life. He sighed and looked at all the names that came after it. He didn't understand how the descendants could be listed, but it was nice to know.
He took in the names to see who had descended from his daughter. He wanted to find out if his line had continued on into the present day. He knew that Helga's was gone. He had learned that from the portrait of her that he had found a week earlier. He knew that Rowena's line hadn't gotten that much of a chance to continue on. That upset him. Salazar had told him where his line had ended up. Godric tried not to think about that one. The idea of a dark lord still scared him. Yet, his line was a complete mystery to him. He looked over the names to see if he recognized one as someone that he had recently heard about. So far, he hadn't seen any names that looked familiar. That was a bit disturbing. He did see the Black line through his daughter's first child, but he ignored it. He didn't want to know that one. He followed the Braidon family. He then saw the name change. He blinked at the new name that came up. It was the Bones family that the name ended up changing to. A daughter of the Braidon's had married some man with the last name of Bones. He then found the name's Susan and Amelia. He had seen Susan Bones at the school and he had heard of Amelia. He set the paper down and rubbed his eyes.
The door to Severus' office opened and the man came in with Ash. Godric held his arms out for the boy and kissed his forehead after the boy had stepped into them. Ash smiled and let him. Godric then looked at Severus. He stood up and kept Ash in his arms. He had decided to take the boy out to the grounds. Godric looked at Severus. He was going to be polite to the man. "I'm going to take Ash outside. The two of us could do with some fresh air. Would you like to come with us?" He waited to see what Severus was going to say.
Severus stared at the younger man, acting as if he was insane for asking him to do such a thing. Godric waited for the rejection that he assumed was coming. Severus then let out a sigh that sounded as if he was the one that was suffering. "Fine, I'll come. I would rather come than to leave you to the students. They're still insane about you. After all, how often does one get to talk to a Founder of this school?" He used the last words in a mean way, but Godric kept his mouth shut and didn't answer the rhetorical question. He had figured out that that was Severus' way about most things. It was obvious that he didn't think much about the students' reactions. Besides, Godric disliked acknowledging the fact that he was considered some sort of celebrity. Hell, he had continually pointed out that he wasn't really a Founder. Yet, nobody ever listened to him.
The three exited the Potions Master's office and began to make their way towards the stairs that led out of the dungeons. The group started out walking in silence. There were the few Slytherins mingling about on their way to the common room after a day of classes. They did look at the scene with a bit of amusement. They liked to comment that Godric Gryffindor was no ideal of the house. They said that he was more like a snake. Godric had heard the comments and ignored them. He had picked up a few of Salazar's habits over the years. He kept Ash between him and Severus. He wanted to protect the boy as much as he could. Truth was, he wondered what was happening to his son. The more that he looked at the boy, the more that he was worried. It wasn't like the child to be so accepting, calm, and quiet. It was as if something about the present day was changing his child, and not for the better.
They reached the entrance hall and Severus pushed open the doors that led out of the castle. "I don't see why you would want to go outside on such a day. It's rather dark. The clouds are ruining any sun that you might want to get." Godric shook his head and kept his mouth shut. He knew that there were a lot of things he couldn't vocalize. It wasn't that he had no words; it just wasn't safe. He sighed and walked out. Severus followed after him. He seemed to be acting like a guard. Godric thought that was nice of him. He then shook his head. He couldn't believe that the thought had even entered his mind. He sighed and began to focus elsewhere. His musings were taking him down paths he didn't want to go. It was frustrating, oh was that true. He only hoped that he would find a solution soon. He needed it.
A/N: Well, here's the chapter. Gives you a bit of information on his family and takes a little away from his immediate problem. Hope that you enjoyed. Later.
