The Vampire Half 2
Author's Note: At last! The long awaited Vampire Half 2 is back! I have at
last finished Crazy Quest and began this story. Every character belongs to
J.K. Rowling except Ruby, Justice Archlight and some other imaginary
magical creatures and people. Don't worry about the Serbian language: you
read it as it is written and you write it as you say it. For example:
Rastko Zmajevich ( Ras-tko Zma-ye-vich).

It was the middle of the school day when Harry was walking down the corridor, which led to the Gryffindor common room. It was break time, of course, when somebody called his name from the shadows.
'Hey, Potter, come here!' whispered a familiar voice from the shadow.
Harry ran towards that voice, only to see himself facing Ruby Severina Hogwarts, peeking out from a secret hidden corridor behind a painting of a field of poppies.
Ruby gestured him to follow her into the secret corridor. Harry followed her, while the painting slipped and closed the entrance behind them. They went down the dark corridor, when Ruby suddenly came to a complete stop to what seemed to be a solid stone wall in front of them. Ruby drew a slender, mahogany wand from her dark robes and placed it on the wall.
'"Unfogging the Future"' whispered Ruby the password.
The wall vibrated and swung open, revealing a familiar room filled with bookshelves...
'The Restricted Section in the library,' explained Ruby, reading Harry's thoughts,' I come here sometimes.'
They climbed out of the passage and the wall closed behind them. Ruby turned to Harry, her eyes looking determined.
'Well? You haven't said a single word to me since the school began,' snapped Ruby impatiently,' Haven't you got to say something?'
'Erm...how are you?' asked Harry confusedly.
Ruby rolled her eyes.
'Doesn't that Archlight get on your nerves?' questioned Ruby, her eyebrows furrowing.
'Well... she does give points to our house and..' mumbled Harry.
'She unfairly deducts points from Slytherin,' finished off Ruby angrily,' not even Uncle Severus would do that to your House!'
Harry said nothing. He concentrated on the shelves. Ruby met his gaze.
'I heard you wanted to find out more about your parents, Harry,' spoke Ruby,' and there are some old yearbooks in here. Perhaps we should search through them?'
Harry looked at her in amazement.
'They have yearbooks in Hogwarts?' he blurted in surprise.
Ruby smiled.
'Yes, but they sort of...do it in secret. There are some pictures of students in there, and some works and essays that the students done, and that's about it. They give you the yearbooks of your time when you graduate Hogwarts in the seventh year. The yearbooks are in there,' explained Ruby, pointing to a huge cabinet with stacks of drawers.
The cabinet was old, and made of oak. Harry strode towards it and opened a drawer. Inside were stacks of yearbooks. Harry looked around and saw that each cabinet had dates of years of yearbooks.
Ruby came and looked around. With a cry of triumph, she opened a drawer, and scanned through the books. She finally pulled out a navy blue yearbook and handed it to Harry.
'These were the years when your parents were in Hogwarts,' she whispered solemnly,' open it.'
Harry took a deep breath and opened the book. He stared. Harry saw that the first few pages were coloured in red, green, blue and yellow colors. These were the pages that showed which students graduated in that year.
Harry hurriedly flicked to the red pages- the Gryffindor students. He scanned the page when his eyes suddenly fell onto a photograph: his father, James Potter.
Harry's father looked a lot like Harry when he graduated, only older. His hair was ruffled and his eyes seemed to gleam in the photograph. He waved to those who were looking the picture and was smiling. Harry smiled sadly back and looked beneath:
' Name: James Harold Potter
Nationality: English
Best friend(s): Sirius Black, Remus Lupin, Lily Evans, Peter Pettigrew
Best known for: Quidditch player, Head boy, one of best students in school, Prank extrodinare
Nickname: Prongs'
Harry gave a sad laugh at the 'Prank Extrodinare' . He looked around and saw his mother, Lily Evans, along with Sirius, Remus and Peter. They all looked very happy and young, never knowing the tragedy that would strike them.
Then Harry turned to the green pages- the Slytherin students.
Harry looked around and his eyes fell on a familiar young man with greasy black hair, intelligent black eyes, aquiline nose and a serious expression: Severus Snape. He was looking silent, proud and mysterious.
Harry read about him:
'Name: Severus Septimus Snape
Nationality: Father was English but mother Italian.
Best Friend(s): Lucius Malfoy (before he graduated the year before him), George Lestranger, Narcissa Lunaire, Sibyl Trelawney
Best Known for: Knew more dark curses than any student, best at Potions in Hogwarts history, one of best students in school, a player in Quidditch team, excellent dueller(apart from Potter), hated the Marauders (Potter, Lupin, Pettigrew and Black).
Nickname: Alchemy'
Harry stared wide-eyed at this. Snape seem good at many things. He never knew Snape was a Quidditch player!
'Hey, Ruby, do you know what position Snape played in the Quidditch team?' asked Harry.
'Uncle Severus was a Keeper, while your father was a Chaser,' drawled bored Ruby.
Harry nodded. He quickly flicked to the blue Ravenclaw pages. He scanned the page until he found the name he was looking for:
'Name: Sibyl Trelawney
Nationality: English, but some of her descendants come from Romania or Austria
Best friend(s): Severus Snape
Best known for: Best in her class at Divination and Arithmacy.
Nickname: Cassandra, the Seer'
Sibyl Trelawny looked serious in the photograph, but she couldn't seem to hide a small, pleasant, smile that appeared on her face. Her dark brown hair fell about her in curls, while she wore rectangle shaped glasses instead of round ones. Her light blue eyes seemed to twinkle in the photograph.
Harry smiled back at her. Suddenly, Ruby shook his shoulders vigorously.
'We have to get out of here,' she whispered frantically,' Madam Pince is coming here!'
They quickly went to the wall, whispered the password and were gone.
Right on queue, in walked Madam Pince, with Professor Archlight strolling behind her.
'I'm sure you'll find here what you need,' babbled Pince,' I'll leave you here.'
Justice smiled kindly after her, and once Madam Pince left, her smile drew into a smirk.
'We'll see you secret, won't we Snape?' she said in a fake, sympathetic voice.
She walked to the yearbook cabinet, and took out the exact same yearbook that Harry and Ruby were reading. She flicked to the Slytherin pages, and her eyebrows raised in surprise.
'Well, well, well, what have we here?' she whispered,' A good dueler, eh? Sounds very, very, interesting.'
Justice suddenly gave a mad giggle, and looked around triumphantly with a big smile on her face.
'We will have some fun, won't we?' Justice gave one of her cruel smiles and smirked.

'How many of us are left, Wormtail?' growled Dark Lord Voldermort, the former Heir of the Slytherins.
'About ten of us are left, but we do have some spies in Hogwarts,' answered Wormtail.
'Very good...where is the potion now?' demanded Voldemort.
'Those Serbian teachers have it with them in Hogwarts.' Whimpered Wormtail.
'Damn!' hissed Voldemort,' This potion will bring me to my downfall! And that Zmajevich is a powerful wizard. It is going to be hard to get to it. But never mind, for our little new spy will help us!'
Wormtail's beady eyes gleamed in agreement.
