Hedwig flew down from the top of the owlry when she saw Harry enter. She perched on his shoulder and nuzzled him gently on the check. Harry fed her another piece of bacon that he had stuffed in his pocket for her. He gave her the letter and told her one direction:
"What ever you do, try to find them. I know this is a new address for you. Go now. Be quick."
Harry watched her fly away, then grabbed his bag and headed for the dungeon.

"Harry- did you realize that you have no proof your parents exist?" Hermione whispered to Harry.
"Harry- you don't even know where this place is!" Ron said under his breath.
"If you're trying to get me to stay here for the winter, it's not working. Everything will be answered in the response letter." Harry answered back quietly.
But none of them talked quietly enough for Snape. He turned around and looked directly and the three of them. "Unless you can tell me what you were talking about, fifty points will be deducted from Grifindor House."
Ron and Harry looked at each other.
Hermione spoke. "Harry simply asked Ron and I what you where talking about as he came in late."
Snape said, "And why was Mr. Potter late in the first place?"
Ron answered that. "Harry had to go to the owlry to send a very important letter."
"I'm sorry, professor." Harry apologized.
Snape thought for a while. "I do not think that a letter could be so important to be late for class. Therefor, ten points will be taken from the Grifindor total."
Harry, Ron, and Hermione all stared at their worst teacher with pure hatred. If it had been any other teacher… Harry thought.

The rest of the day passed more quickly. Soon Harry, Ron, and Hermione found themselves sitting down at lunch.
"Harry, think about it. They had to be dead- remember last year when you saw their ghosts? How could they have ghosts if they weren't dead?" Hermione asked him.
"She makes a good point, Harry,' said Ron.
"I don't know you guys, but if there's any chance that they actually are alive, I'm going to take it." Harry answered.
"We're sorry, Harry. We just worry about you," said Hermione.
"Yeah." Ron agreed.
