Chapter 5: Breakfast and New Friends
Harry woke from a trill of beautiful music from the window. Opening his eyes, Harry turned and saw a beautiful red and gold phoenix sitting on the windowsill.
The bird took flight and sat down on the bed beside Harry. It cooked its head to the side and looked at him.
^Good morning!^ Harry jumped as he realized that it was the phoenix that had talked.
^How can I understand you?^ and got the next shock, as he realized that he could speak it too.
^Very easy, every heir of Godric's is able to! Those wards just kept you from taking and understanding it.^
^What's your name?^
^I am Serena, and you should probably get ready for classes. Wouldn't want to be late for you're first class now would we?^ Serena said with a laugh.
//5 minutes later//
Walking into the great hall, Harry saw Godric looking at Serena with a shocked expression on his face. Turing his face to Harry he smiled, for the first time Harry was here, at him.
*Harry! Harry!* Harry looked down and saw Zachary slithering to him, picking him up he asked what the matter was. *Salazar wants you to sit at his seat until he comes here.*
*Why is that?*
*No idea, I think he just wants to keep an eye on you.* Harry shrugged and sat down next to Helga.
Helga smiled and asked, "Did you sleep well?"
Harry returned the smile, "Yes I did, and who wouldn't when waking by the song from such a beautiful lady as Serena is." Helga fell into a fit of giggles as she saw the bird ruffle her feathers and then disappear with a pop. Right after that, he heard a loud cough from Godric who looked at him with a raised eyebrow and an amused smile.
"I see that you met Serena, and you're totally right, she has a beautiful voice," Godric said.
Only Godric and Harry heard the murmured ^You're just as bad as him, there's no mistaken that he's your heir.^ They looked at each other and laughed at the look Serena was giving them.
Salazar chose that moment to enter the hall and raised one quizzical eyebrow before moving to stand in front of Harry. *I see that Godric has forgiven you that little prank at the feast yesterday.* he said in parseltongue.
*Yea,* Harry replied *but only after Serena came with me to the hall.*
*Always knew I liked that blasted bird!* Salazar murmured before motioning to Harry to stand up and come with him.
Going down and standing in front of the Slytherin table he said, "There will be no pranks or you'll get it back ten folds" a smile flashed on his face before he continued, "Harry will be treated with respect! Oh, one more thing, we will cover the Chamber of Secrets today in dark arts. We have a double period anyway." He smirked and then looked at Harry who had a shocked face.
"The Basilisk is hopefully not down there yet! I have no longing to kill that thing twice!"
"Oh don't worry! He won't do anything with two parselmouth's in there who command him!" Salazar said cheerily. "Now sit down and eat, you have me first two periods." Looking around he spotted two teenagers running into the hall at top speed just to slitter to a halt right in front of him. "Ahh… Jessy and Sam, just the two I was looking for!"
The two looked at each other, swallowed hard and the turned to their teacher with a small smile. "I need you to look out for Harry and show him the basics ok?"
"Sure." The two said as one and breathed a sight of relive.
Nodding, Salazar took of for the head table again.
Harry sensing two people sitting on each side of him looked up from his breakfast and smiled at the two. "Hi! I'm Jessy!" the blond girl with blue eyes said that was sitting on his right side said. "And I'm Sam," a sandy haired, brown eyed boy said, seating himself to his left side ended.
"I'm Harry, nice to meet you." Harry said nervously. Looking at his wristwatch, he took Zachary and set him on the table. *Zach? Can you go tell Salazar that I'm taking Jessy and Sam right down to the Chamber of Secrets because I know how to get in?* he asked.
*Sure!* Zachary said and slithered to Salazar who then nodded with a smirk on his face.
With that done, he turned to Sam and Jessy. "Would you guys like to go to the Chamber of Secrets now? Cause I know where it is and how to get in!" Both looked excited and soon were off with a few pieces of toast clutched in there hands.
