Chapter 8
Gryffindor vs. Slytherin
Hogwarts went down hill since the beginning of October.
There was maximum security around the castle but more people were disappearing.
Harry sighed, having both his parents at Hogwarts was starting to suck, he was never alone anymore.
Harry sat in the Library the day before his first Quidditch Match, which was against Slytherin.
He finished all his homework then decided to look at something else, but it was hidden in his Dormitory.
He pulled out his wand unaware of the Librarian Madam Pince watching him closely.
"Accio Book."
As soon as he said it 'The Founders and Legends of Hogwarts' flew into his hands.
Suddenly Madam Pince came over to him and said, "That better not be a Library book you did that too."
Harry shook his head and held up the book.
She nodded noticing that one was never recorded in the Library.
Harry started reading it and Madam Pince thought, "That book's really rare, wonder where he got it?"
Harry read the book with extreme interest.
It gave profiles about the Founder and Everything! It told where the secret passages were then Harry got to the back of the book and much to his shock all the words were there as clear as day, to find it wasn't just another part of the book with information in it.but a letter.
To the reader of this letter, If your reading this that means that you're a Hogwarts student and that Hogwarts is in great trouble. I was finished writing this book when suddenly a thought struck me.what if it happened again? What was it you ask? Well it was"
Harry squinted to see what it said but it was impossible to tell so he kept on reading.
But don't give up hope.there's still away to stop him. But first my heir must go to the secret Gryffindor Chamber. Yes I know there are Legends of the Chamber of Secrets for Slytherin.and indeed there is one but I won't go into that now. The necklace within the back of this book will only open the Chamber for my heir, in there will be a stone tablet, and on it you'll see what we like to call The Legend of Gryffindor. There are very few people who heard about it unlike the Chamber of Secrets.it's not very secret in you ask me. For now please young student of Hogwarts be careful and stay strong.for my heir, the heir of all 4 of us Hogwarts founders actually is closer by then you think. He/She will be either very smart like Ravenclaw, sometimes a little dense like Hufflepuff, very ambitious like Slytherin, or very courageous like myself. From beyond the grave, Gordic Gryffindor
Harry started awe struck. He was about to get up to show Hermione, Ron, his friends and his parents what he found.but stopped himself.
"No, I'll find the heirs of Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw and Slytherin myself," Harry thought in his head then nodded.
He got up, and went to go to the Great Hall for the Halloween feast.
But he didn't once leave the book out of reading distance.something big was going to happen this year at Hogwarts.and Harry knew it.
Also he knew he's defiantly be in on it.weather he liked it or not. ________________________________________________________________________
Harry started at the Great all as he watched it. He hadn't seen it look this cool since.well.never.
There were real bats flying around in groups, there were dozens of large pumpkins carved around the room and were all magically glowing.
The floating candles were covered with small ordainments of pumpkins, black cats, ghosts, a witches/wizards hat.everything!
Harry sat between Ron and Hermione and Ron asked, "So what are you doing tomorrow?"
Harry smiled, no one put the team and 1 other person knew he was on the Gryffindor Quidditch team.
Those that did.that weren't teachers were: Oliver Wood (Captain & Keeper), Alicia Spinnet, Katie Bell & Angelina Johnson (Chasers), Fred & Gorge Weasley (Beaters), and Lee Jordan (Commentary).
There were 7 players on the team.the only one missing from that list was The Seeker .Harry.
"The youngest Seeker in 100 years!" He remembered his mother tell him in shock and remembered how proud his dad was when he heard the news.
"Harry?" Hermione said waving her hand in front of his face.
Harry jumped and blinked and said, "Sorry, guess I was spacing out huh?"
"Yeah, anyways you wanna sit with Hermione, Semus, Dean, Neville, Lavender, Parvati, Padma.the usual crowd, at the Quidditch game tomorrow? Gryffindor vs. Slytherin.this should be good," Ron said going starry eyed.
"Sorry, I can't go to the Quidditch game, I gotta do something," Harry said using the lie Remus gave him.
Ron looked horrified that Harry couldn't go and started stuttering out.
Even Hermione looked shocked.she knew how much Harry loved Quidditch.
"Maybe you can get the teachers to make you help them another time," She said with hopeful eyes.
Harry shook his head no and said, "I would with any other teachers.but I can't really turn down my mom and dad can I?"
They both nodded.
The other's who were listen also looked disappointed they couldn't go with the normal big group of Gryffindor, Ravenclaw and Hufflepuffs they usually do.
"Why'd all the normal teacher's leave?" Dean asked suddenly.
They all shrugged and Lavender said, "Probably cause of the disappearances."
Harry suddenly felt guilty, he had information on it but something inside of him wanted to keep it too himself.
^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*
Harry stood nervously with the other players in the Gryffindor locker room.
They all wore scarlet robes and held brooms.
Harry had special gloves on that only the Seeker wore so he could keep his grip on the snitch.
Suddenly the door few open and Wood said, "Alright everyone.let's go."
They watched the Slytherins being introduced then Lee said, "And here come the Gryffindors! Keeper and Captain Oliver Wood! Chasers Angelina Johnson, Alicia Spinnet and Katie Bell! Beaters Fred and Gorge Weasley! And the youngest Seeker on a Hogwarts House team for the past 100 years Harry Potter!"
Everybody was shocked to see Harry fly out with the rest of the team.
Ron burst out laughing and said, "We shoulda guessed! Not only are Harry's parents with the teachers he's never miss a Quidditch game."
The group watched the Gryffindors face the Slytherins.
The whistle blew and they all took off.
Harry stayed high above the other players watching closely for the snitch.
"Alicia Spinnet has the quaffle and is heading to the Slytherin goals.she plays Quidditch just as good as she looks," Lee Jordan said joking around.
"JORDAN!" Professor Star yelled at him.
After awhile the game was getting nasty.
A Slytherin beater hit Angelina so hard she flipped through one of the hoops on the Slytherin side and hit the ground.
Katie got a buldger in the head.
Oliver got a buldger in the stomach knocking him to the ground.
The only ones left were the Slytherins, Alicia, Fred, Gorge and Harry.
Suddenly no one really knew what happened first but a red and green blur shot by.
Suddenly there was a crashing sound and a lot of dust.
Everybody.and I mean everybody stopped to see what happened.
They all saw Professor Black and Professor Lupin run onto to the field.
They cleared the dust away too see the Slytherin seeker unconscious but a few feet away Harry wasn't unconscious.
He looked at Sirus and said, "We won."
He held up his hand revealing that the Golden Snitch was in it.
There was an explosion of noise from the Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw houses, the Slytherins all hissed but the loudest of them all were the Gryffindors.
Harry's eyes suddenly closed and he too fell to the ground unconscious.
^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*
"My god I thought I was gonna have a heart attack when I saw him dive like that so suddenly," a woman voice said from somewhere around Harry who was slowly coming.
"Now Lily, Harry's fine.just fainted from the hit to the ground.if that Slytherin seeker hadn't have grabbed onto Harry's leg and pulled him down with him he'd have been able to pull up," James's voice came.
"I thought it was wicked cool!" A girl's voice said.
Harry's eyes suddenly shot open to see his mom and dad talking a bit away and.
"Hiya Harry," none other then Crystal Potter said, her green eyes shining.
James and Lily looked over to see Harry sitting up.
"Harry! I was so scared!" Lily yelled running over to him and hugging him.
James just stood there and gave Harry a smile and a thumbs up.
"Mom calm down. And what are YOU doing here," He suddenly snarled realizing Dudley was in the room too.
"Harry," Lily said in sheer surprise.
"I've come to see you dear cousin," He replied with a sarcastic drip in his voice.
"I don't need some Slytherin scum around," Harry growled back.
"HARRY JAMES POTTER!" Lily yelled at him.
Harry and Dudley glared at each other and Crystal sighed.she'd known Harry and Dudley hated each other.
"Anyways what are you doing here Crystal?" Harry asked turning his attention to his younger sister.
"She had to Harry.with all of us here, James, Sirus, Remus and I there was no one to take care of her," Lily said smiling to see her son and daughter again together in the same room.
"Where are you staying?"
"With mom and dad."
Harry smiled, he was glad his family was together again.
^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*
Harry was walking up to the Gryffindor common room when he heard something.
"Many lonely years of torture.now I'll kill every student at Hogwarts before I find the heir of the one that imprisoned me."
Harry jumped about a mile in the air.there was something in the castle.
"He's after the heirs!" Harry thought well looking around wildly.
He made a mad dash somewhere.he didn't even know where.
Suddenly he found himself in front of a stone gargoyle.
"Sherbet Lemon."
The gargoyle sprang to life and let Harry in.
A suddenly reality went through Harry's mind.he was going to Dumbledore's office.
But was Dumbledore up there? Harry hadn't seen many of the normal teachers lately.
He knocked on the door when he got off the moving staircase.
Sure enough it was Professor Dumbledore that opened the door.
"Ahh Harry, what a nice surprise.please do come in," He said letting Harry in.
"Something seems to be troubling you.what is it?" Dumbledore said.
Harry blurted out about the voice he just heard and when he was finished Dumbledore looked worried.
"No Harry, I don't know what it was.but if you hear it again come strait to me.you might be able to save the students left in Hogwarts."
*^*^*^*^*^*^*^**^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*
Everyone was dull in the Gryffindor common room.
None had been aloud to see Harry so they assumed it was bad, and not only that but Jamie Gorges (a 7th year) and Claria Macintosh (a 4th year) disappeared today.
Suddenly all the Gryffindor's jumped as the fat lady's portrait flew open.
They all looked to see Harry Potter standing there.looking very confused.
"Harry!" Hermione said suddenly breaking the silence.
The whole house started talking together.
Soon the Headgirl of Hogwarts came in and yelled, "OK people! I got an announcement to make!"
All went silent again.
"OK first I want to congratulate the Gryffindor's for winning, and second your not to leave the common room after 7:00PM. Also in anybody has information on the disappearances go to any of the teachers, perfects the Headboy or me, understand?"
They all nodded and she smiled, shook her head and went to wherever the Headboy and Girl's chambers were.
"Harry, we thought you were hurt bad, Madam Pomfrey wouldn't let us in," Ron said to him.
Harry shook his head and smiled, "My family was in there and I guess they wanted me to be left alone.with what little piece I could get."
Ron and Hermione laughed then Hermione started talking to Lavender and Ron started talking to Dean.
Harry sighed and looked at the clock.3:20.
He got up and decided to go for a walk.
As Harry turned a corner.one that he didn't know he heard it again.that same icy voice as before.but this time it was much closer.
"Finally, another victim.full of life, so young.much younger then the others."
Harry's eyes went wide.
Just as Dudley and Draco rounded the corner he yelled, "CRYSTAL!" Then took off running.
"Potter gets weirder each time I see him," Malfoy said.
Dudley watched his cousin run and said, "At least your not related to him."
"Well obviously you came from the better end of the family," Draco said then they walked off.
"Yeah, too bad my end of the family's dead," Dudley hissed then continued walking.
