A/N- I got so many nice reviews I decided to update today! Yeah. THERE IS A
POLL AT THE END AUTHORS NOT TODAY! Please answer in your reviews. PLEASE
REVIEWS!! As you may have noticed the more you review the faster I update.
It is after all my motivation. Everyone needs motivation. This chapter is
kind of short but I think the story will end up being 48,000 words. That is
pretty good for me. Should I do a short sequel to this or an epilogue? We
have a while to decide but I am thinking about it. I HAVE OVER 150 REVIEWS
NOW! THANK YOU!!!

Harry got back from Grimmauld place just the day before school started up again and everyone returned. He was finishing up his essay in his common room but he couldn't concentrate so he decided to go and visit Sirius.
He got up to walk out the entrance when something shiny caught his eyes which made him stop in his tracks. Harry picked it up and stared at it. He wasn't sure what it was or why it was there exactly.
"Harry!" a high pitched voice screamed. "What are you doing with my charm bracelet?"
"Fallyn, calm down. I found it on the floor. Where did you get this?" Harry asked staring at the object in his hand and fingering the necklace around his neck with the other.
"My grandmother gave it to me right before she died. She told me to never lose it," Fallyn said sadly.
"Um..Fallyn, I have to show you something. Will you sit on the couch for a second?" Harry asked nicely and led the girl to the couch in front of the warm and welcoming fire.
"What is it Harry? Is something wrong?"
"Nothings wrong. Just look at this," Harry said unclasping his necklace he got from Sirius and putting both it and Fallyn's charm bracelet in her hand.
"Wow!" She exclaimed looking at it then handing it back to Harry who was again reaching for it. Harry looked at the charm bracelet closely. It was a silver charm that was a slightly differrent shape from Harry's. Instead of a ruby in the middle it had a two toned gold and red opal. It was tiny and under it was an engraved 'H'. Just like Harry's there was a little dent in one side and a tiny piece sticking out of another.
"Harry where did you get yours?" Fallyn asked not realizing the particular rarity of the charms.
"My father," Harry answered simply.
"Well what is it? I don't think we have it just so it can look pretty."
Harry didn't say anything but simply took both charms off the chains they were on and hooked Fallyn's silver opal piece into the dent of Harry's. The piece sticking out fit perfectly into Harry's just like a puzzle piece. The two pieces started to give off a red glow and Harry was now holding what looked like to be two-thirds of a large triangle.
"Merlin Harry! What does this mean?"
Harry thought for several minutes before he spoke.
"It was the founder's. I think 'H' stands for Hufflepuff and 'G' stands for Gryffindor."
"But there is a place for only one more," Fallyn noticed.
"Draco probably has the other one. He is Ravenclaw's heir. I am not sure what this thing does but I think it needs at least one more piece."
"We should go ask Dumbledore! Look at the red glow it is giving off."
Harry agreed and left the room after putting the necklace back on and helping Fallyn with hers. Fallyn immediately followed Harry to the headmaster's office. They wanted to seek out Malfoy right away but he was home for the holidays and wouldn't be back until the next day just before classes started. They had to find out exactly what the so called charm was and why it was radiating a faint red glow.
"Altoid." Harry said the password to the gargoyle just loud enough for Fallyn to hear.
"Come in," Dumbledore said right before Harry knocked. The two sixteen year olds stepped into the slightly cluttered office.
"Hello Minister, Miss Amory, how can I help you?" the old man asked with his usual comforting twinkling eyes.
"Well it is kind of a long story but it all states with this gift I got from Sirius that used to be my dad's. I got it for Christmas," Harry said handing the headmaster the two charms that weren't hooked together at the moment. He eyed it suspiciously and clicked the two pieces together. Dumbledore stared at its red glow.
"Harry," the headmaster said while motioning the two teenagers to sit down. Harry did that and listened for his headmaster to begin. "Do you know what this is?"
"No sir," Harry said. "That is why we came here. We wanted to know if you knew anything about it."
"This, Mr. Potter is something that I thought I would not ever see again. It is part of the amulet of Hogwarts."
"But it only has three pieces and there are four founders!" Fallyn exclaimed.
"Well," Dumbledore began. "It all starts many centuries ago when Helga Hufflepuff, Rowena Ravenclaw, Godric Gryffindor and Salazar Slytherin first founded Hogwarts. They made this amulet when they first founded it as a sign of unity. It protected them and was incredibly powerful. Salazar betrayed the other three founders greatly and then the amulet was changed so it wasn't a square of four pieces but a triangle of three. If at anytime Salazar was a danger to the others then they would kill him. When the amulet of three is put together with a drop of blood from the three united founders it would kill anyone with the blood of Slytherin in seconds. The amulet would have to be at least 3 feet near the victim and everyone would have to be touching it. The 3 founders never did use it."
"So does that mean if we get the last piece of the triangle, we can defeat Voldemort? He is the heir of Slytherin. We all have the founder's blood so it should work right?" Harry asked hopefully. He was quite shocked to find out that this may be their answer they have been waiting for.
Fallyn stared at the glowing amulet that wasn't quite complete and took everything in.
"Yes Harry, but you have to realize it is already enough of a miracle that the two of you have the pieces and are now together. When your dad died I thought I would never see it again. I also think it is unbelievable that Fallyn has hers and you just so happened to pick it up off the floor in your common room. I think that the pieces are passed from generations to generation. Mr. Malfoy had no idea he was the heir of Ravenclaw but his great grandfather knew so there is still a chance that he might have it."
"And if he doesn't have it?" Harry asked nervously.
"Then I am afraid we will just have to keep searching for a way."
Harry nodded and looked at his watch. He swore under his breath as he realized he was late.
"Albus I have to go to the ministry. I am holding a hearing in 15 minutes and I have to do some preparations. Is it okay if we talk about this later?"
"That's fine Harry. Just keep the amulet piece safe. I will call an order meeting when you are gone to let them know about new possibilities but it is okay that you can't attend. Mr. Malfoy won't be able to either. Come to my office first thing after breakfast. I will make sure Malfoy is there. Will you come as well Miss Amory?" Dumbledore asked.
"Of course and I will make sure that the amulet is safe."
Harry left and took a portkey to his office. He apologized to Arthur for being late and bid him goodbye. The hearing past slowly and Harry found that all he could think about was the amulet and about killing Voldemort once and for all. Then he could live a normal life. Well.he could never really live a normal life. He was the minister of magic and he did fight Voldemort several times. Harry had long time since accepted that he would never have a 'normal' life but with Voldemort gone it could be a better one. No more dreams and no more visions.
Actually Harry would probably still have dreams. Dreams that would haunt him for a long time because of all that he has witnessed and been through. Right now life was good for the boy-who-lived but if it could get any better Harry certainly wouldn't pass up the chance.
A/N- I hope you liked this chapter. I know it was kind of short but I had lots of fun writing this one. My ideas are hungrily waiting to be put down on paper!!! Please review! I LOVE REVIEWS!!!
