Chapter 10

Hidden Voices

Classes had started again.and already the teacher's were preparing them for their exams.

First they had Potions with Professor Black like always, then Defence Against Dark Arts with Professor Lupin, then Herbology with Professor Lily Potter, then Charms with Professor Star, Then finally the one Harry was waiting for History of Magic with Professor Binns.

Most people hated this class.although it was a great time to catch up on sleep.

But today Harry had a purpose for wanting to go, he had switched Binns's notes for this class and he was now gonna do this class on Legends.

Binns couldn't believe he wanted to teach his students this, it wasn't history. But if he wrote that he was gonna teach this he was gonna teach it.

Suddenly Harry's hand shot into the air.

Binns was surprised at this, no one, not even Hermione raised their hand for a question in his class.

"Yes Mr.?" He stopped for a second, wondering who the boy was.

Everybody started in shock.he was the first person or ghost they met that didn't know who Harry was at first glance.

"Harry Potter?" Harry asked the teacher with disbelief.

"Aww yes, sorry Mr. Potter. Your question please?"

"I was wondering, most people know about the Legend of the Chamber of Secrets and things like that.but has there ever been a report of the Legend of Gryffindor?" Harry asked his teacher.

Professor Binns looked shocked, not many people knew about that Legend.he himself was one of the few that did.

"Yes indeed there was, but the only book you could find it in was one of a kind, but it was said to be destroyed. But I've heard about people speak of the Legend before. Something extremely bad was suppost to happen to the school and only 4 people as we believe can stop it. The heirs of Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff and Slytherin."

Hermione raised her hand and said, "But Professor, wouldn't it have to be 1- 4 people? We're not entirely sure."

"Yes, that's correct."

"Sir, has there ever been anything said about Gryffindor's hidden chamber?" Harry asked his teacher.

Professor Binns looked shocked, this boy knew more about History then he thought.

"No, there might have been one mentioned in the Legend or something to do with it, but it's not real.as is the Chamber of Secrets."

^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*

Harry walked through the castle, he knew all along where the Chamber of Secrets was so there was no need to look for that, but he could prove the teacher wrong.

"I smell the blood of life, another life!"

Harry stopped in his tracks.causing Dudley, Draco, Crabbe and Goyle to stop to.

The 4 Slytherins had been following Harry around to see what he's been up to.

"I've been tortured for years.now I'm getting closer to the heir!" The voice hissed then continued, "Master needs me to find more energy so I can evolve.I wish he spoke my language."

Harry thought that over the said out loud, "Hissing? It sounds like a damn snake!"

He ran after the voice, which was still talking to himself.

Harry watched it crawl into the Chamber of Secrets again.

He knew for a fact that the chamber held a Basilisk in it but that wasn't it.

Little did the 4 Slytherins or Harry know a woman was watching them and said, "I'm so sorry Harry.I wish there was another way for you to find out."

^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*

Harry was reading over the book for the millionth time.

"The heirs.who are they?" he asked himself.

Suddenly a memory of just today.in History of Magic came to him.

"Wouldn't it have to be 1-4 people?" Hermione had asked.

Harry sat strait up causing all the people he was with to look at him strangely.

"Sorry, I've gotta go, bye." With that Harry ran out of the library.

"What's with him?" Ron asked.

Hermione wasn't paying attention, but picked up a piece of paper Harry had been working on.

She gasped as she read it.

"What?" Ron asked her.

"Did you ever wonder WHY Harry was so interested in the Legend of Gryffindor?"

"No, not really," Ron replied.

"I have," said Neville.

"Same here," A few others said.

"He's trying to figure out who the heir of the Hogwarts 4 are," Hermione said.

^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*

Harry ran and ran until he reached the Gryffindor common room.

He went and grabbed a piece of parchment and a silver cloak from his dorm and ran back out the door.

"HAGIRD!" He yelled hitting Hagird's door.

"What? 'Arry? Yur not 'post to be 'ere!" Hagrid said in surprise.

"But it's important.I didn't know who to share it with, so I decided it should be you," Harry explained.

"OK, well let's 'ere it," Hagrid said.

Harry told him everything, the book, how he was the only one able to read the back, his sister, the voice, the heir, the legend.everything.

When he was done Hagrid looked at him and said, "'Arry, blimley, you heard a snake talking? You're a Parselmouth?"

Harry nodded, he knew for years about this and said, "But that's not what I need now, I need to lure the creature away from the heirs."

Hagrid gave him a look then said, "alright, I'll help, but so is Dumbledore."

Harry nodded to this.they had to find the Heirs and save them.even if it meant his own life.

^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*

Hermione, Ron, Lavender, Neville, Parvati, Dean, Padma, Semus, Hannah, Justin, and Ernie all surrounded Harry at the library the next day.

"Woah, what's going on?" Harry asked them.

"Harry, we know you know something about the Legend of Gryffindor, and we feel like we deserve to know," Ron came right out saying.

Harry glared at him and said lowly, "Listen, just stay in a large group, and keep away from Moaning Murtle's Bathroom."

"Why would we go in there?" Padma asked.

"The Heir of Slytherin is at Hogwarts.he or she is able to open the terror within the Chamber of Secrets whenever they wish, though I doubt they will, also there's many other secret places in this school, which only the heirs of the Hogwarts 4," Harry said.

"Harry, what?" Hermione started but Harry cut her off.

"There's nothing more to say, don't worry about me, I'm just playing my role in destiny," Harry said standing up then walking out the door.

^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*

"ARG! I hate wizards chess!" Hermione yelled as Ron was beating her brutally at it.

Harry didn't look up from his book.lately he and Hermione seemed to have switched places.

"Hermione it's your move. Hermione?" Ron asked her.

She pointed to the book Harry was reading.

The book title said 'Advanced Transfiguration'.

But what shocked both Ron and Hermione was the grade it was suppost to be used for.

It was advanced for 7th years! But Harry was reading it like it was a picture book for 3 year olds.

^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*

"OK class, today I decided to let you choose your own potion to make, the only ones your not aloud to make is this list here.the main ones being a love potion and a deadly potion, but I'm passing around a list and you must put which potion your making beside your name," Professor Black said to his students.

"Oh yeah, I'll be pairing you into partners. So when I call your name go sit with your partner," Sirus said causing them all to groan.

"Anderson Kara and Brown Lavender." "Crabbe Vincent and Dursley Dudley." "Figinning Semus and Goyle Gregory." "Granger Hermione and Kansas Roy." "Konfu Chan and Longbottom Neville." "Lincoln Leo and Malfoy Draco." "Mitchell Tie and Northup Jeremy." "Nott Chris and Parkinson Pansy." "Patil Parvati and Potter Harry." "Randi Zabani and Ross Kyle." "Royan Millicent and Stone Ruby." "Taksuko Kyra and Taksuko Lyra." "Tomas Dean and Trafton Bob." "Weasley Ron and Yvonne Lisa." "Zack Roger and Ziraki Lilac."

Almost everyone groaned, they hated being put into partners. But went to work anyways.

When Sirus got the list back he read it over and it looked like this:

Anderson Kara & Brown Lavender - Swelling Solution Crabbe Vincent & Dursley Dudley - Gas Potion Figinning Semus & Goyle Gregory - Shrinking Solution Granger Hermione & Kansas Roy - Growing Solution Konfu Chan & Longbottom Neville - Knockout Drought Lincoln Leo & Malfoy Draco - Fire Potion Mitchell Tie & Northrup Jeremy - Water Potion Nott Chris & Parkinson Pansy - Freezing Solution Patil Parvati & Potter Harry - Truth Potion Randi Zabani & Ross Kyle - Sleeping Drought Royan Millicent & Stone Ruby - Levitation Drought Taksuko Kyra & Taksuko Lyra - Vanishing Solution Tomas Dean & Trafton Bob - Revealing Solution Weasley Ron & Yvonne Lisa - Color Change Potion Zack Roger & Ziraki Lilac - Mist Potion

Sirus looked impressed, not one group choose the same thing to make.

He looked away from the list then his headshot back, Harry and Parvati were gonna try and make a Truth Potion.

He looked at the two and saw that they weren't having any trouble yet.

"That's because Harry's the strongest wizard in the world," Sirus's mind told him.

"Ok I'll give you your grade next week after I finish testing them, now on to Defence Against Dark Arts."

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

"Ok class, today we're studying Isolatin Mirrors," Professor Lupin said to his class then asked, "Does anybody know what that is?"

Like normal Hermione's hand shot up but so did Harry's.he seemed to be competing for top of the year with her.

"Harry?" Lupin asked him.

"It's a mirror that shows who you REALLY are. Say if you're always happy on the outside but always sad on the inside it'll show you crying, and if your something special like an Heir to something it'll show you surrounded by the ones you are the heir too," Harry stated like he read it out of a text book.

Hermione looked shocked, she had thought it was something entirely different.

"Excellent Harry, 10 points to Gryffindor," Lupin said to him.

"OK I have 1 mirror here and I want you to look in it, you can tell us what you see if you want to or keep it too yourself," Lupin said to them.

After awhile he said, "Harry, your turn."

"I really don't wanna see it Professor," Harry said causing them too look at him questioningly but Lupin let it slip.

+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+

"OK, go into Green House 3, today we'll be collecting petals of Tiger Lilies. But be careful and gentile or else they'll bit you, which can knock you out for several hours, but if more then 1 bits you at once it's possible that you could die from poisoning," Lily said to them.

Hannah of Hufflepuff raised her hand and said, "What are the petals for?"

"It'll supposedly bring life back to people," Lily said her eyes glazing over.

They started trying to take the leaves off them.

Harry knelt down and said to his Tiger Lily, "Ok I just want a few of your petals ok?"

It growled at him and Harry sighed.

After a half an hour Harry looked into the sky and said, "Look at that!"

The Tiger Lily looked up and Harry grabbed a bunch of petals as it glared back at him.

It looked at the ground, ashamed.

"Aww don't be like that," Harry said to it causing all the people around him to laugh.

Next they had History of Magic, which all but Harry slept in.

Then Transfiguration, which Harry also aced.

************************************************************************

"Harry what are you doing?" Hermione hissed dangerously at him.

"What?" Harry asked her.

Ron sighed and said, "She's a little peeved that you're trying to take away top student in the year away from her."

"I'm not, listen your just gonna have to trust me this time, I'll explain later on," Harry said to them.

They looked at him with worry, and then thought that it was no surprise, Harry wasn't really the one to open up to anybody.

They nodded and watched the raven-haired boy walk off, but more slowly then normal.

"Another victim.time to kill," The hissing voice said suddenly.

Harry stopped and yelled, "IT'S GONNA GET SOMEONE ELSE!"

Hermione and Ron both jumped, looked at Harry as he took of running down the hallway.

"He's gone crazy," Hermione heard Ron say as she took off after Harry.

########################################################################

"Harry what?" She stopped dead in her trackers beside Harry and started.

There was BLOOD on the floor.

"Oh god," She whispered then gasped suddenly and said, "Harry come on, we don't want to be caught here in like 2 minutes."

"Why?" Harry asked but figured it out for himself, "No Hermione, I'm going to get Professor Star.her classroom's right there."

She nodded and they both ran to Star's door.

Harry knocked on it hurriedly and Professor Star opened it.

"Can I help you?" She asked.

Harry and Hermione pointed to behind them.

Professor Star looked over their shoulder and gasped then yelled to Harry and Hermione, "HERMIONE GO TELL THE OTHER TEACHERS NOT TO LET THEIR CLASSES OUT! HARRY GO GET PROFESSOR DUMBLEDORE!"

Hermione nodded and took off running to the different classrooms well Harry ran towards Dumbledore's office.

Harry ran up the stairs rapidly.

Don't ask how he knew where everything was, but when he was asked about a place in Hogwarts he knew exactly where it was.

As Harry reached the stone gargoyle he didn't know why but the stone creature moved out of his way automatically.

Dumbledore looked at Harry with anything but surprise and said, "There's been another attack hasn't there?"

Harry nodded and led Dumbledore to the Charms corridor.

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

Hermione and Harry watched them clean up the large amount of blood on the floor.

Hermione did the only thing she could, which was grab a hold of Harry's arm and push her face into his shoulder.

Harry just stood there in shock.

"We need to find this victim, he or she lost a large amount of blood and will die if we don't find them," Madam Pomfrey said to James.

James nodded then looked over at his son, who was pale faced and trying to comfort his friend.

"Harry, do you know ANYTHING about what happened?" James asked his son.

Hermione looked up but still held Harry's arm and Harry looked at the floor and nodded.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"Mr Potter, remember at the first of the year when I asked you and seven of your other first year classmates to keep a watch for things out of the ordinary?" Dumbledore said to Harry.

They were both sitting in Dumbledore's office and the Headmaster agreed not to tell anyone else what Harry said.

Harry explained everything too him, even the voice.

The Headmaster nodded and said, "So, we need to find the Heir."

"I tried professor, but I can seem to find th- wait, did you say HEIR? As in only one?" Harry asked.

"Yes Harry I did," Dumbledore said to him.

"I was looking for 4 people.not 1," Harry replied sheepishly.

"Harry, you might not know this but something happened thousands of years ago, which was recorded in one book, which was never found. But Gordic Gryffindor and Renowa Ravenclaw married, and much to everyone's surprise so did Salzar Slytherin and Helga Hufflepuff. Now thousands of years later supposedly two people came together and had at least one child, the heir of Slytherin and Hufflepuff well the other was the Heir of Gryffindor and Ravenclaw. Legend says that the Heir of Slytherin and Hufflepuff was a woman with the beauty of a flower.well the Heir of Gryffindor and Ravenclaw was as sturdy as a stag, and they actually had 2 children, a boy and a girl, but the older one is the only heir.nobody knows why but he's the only one that has the Powers of the Hogwarts 4," Dumbledore explained.

His blue eyes looked directly into Harry's green eyes.

Harry gasped, it was all coming to him! Everything suddenly made since! How could he not have seen it before? The Heir of Hogwarts was.
