Parseltongue
Chapter 4
Harry ran back to Voldemort's rooms and made the dinner, he managed to put it on the table 5 minutes before he walked through the door. "So you managed to go down there and back before I got home. I thought you would forget the time and stay. Very good."
Voldemort sat down on the couch after he had eaten and started to read a book on Dark arts that he had recently got. Harry knelt down in the corner after cleaning up the table, trying not to fall asleep incase he was ask to do anything.
"Harry, come over here." Harry got up and walled over and knelt again next to Voldemort. Voldemort started to absently play with Harry's hair while he read. Harry had gotten use to this now. It had started about 2 months ago. None of the Death Eaters knew or any of the other slaves. Voldemort had never gone any further then to play with his hair, which was now just bellow his shoulders. Some thing always happened, like a Death Eater coming in with a report or complaint. Tonight was the same there was a knock on the door and Harry moved to answer it.
"Did I tell you to answer it? NO I didn't. Go feed Nagini, I will deal with you later" Voldemort snapped. Harry left to find the pet snake, who was usually in Voldemort's bedroom, and then started a conversation with her after she had finished eating. Harry had worked out that he could speak Parseltougue even if he was silenced and couldn't speak English, and he had found he enjoyed talking with the snake.
An hour or so later Voldemort finished his conversation and came into the bedroom to find them talking. He had watched them talking before and they always had very strange conversations, but then again they were completely different species and the only thing they had in common was their language, well and they both belonged to Voldemort. He walked further into the room and sat on the bed, watching them for awhile, but after a few minutes made is presence known.
"Harry! come here!" The boy jumped and turned his head so fast it must have been painful. He got up and walked over to Voldemort, and knelt at his feet.
"Did I tell you to answer the door?" "No sir." Harry hissed, knowing Voldemort had heard him talking to Nagini. Voldemort lashed out at Harry, slapping him across the face. "In the future, wait to be told." "Yes sir."
"Now this is interesting, you can still converse in Parseltongue when under the silencing charm. Very interesting." Voldemort said, starting to play with Harry's hair again. "In that case the charm can stay and you can wonder around the castle and grounds. I will change the charms on you so that you can't leave this room between dinner and Breakfast. After that you can't pass beyond the wards around the grounds. You will still clean the rooms and cook for me, but I will eat in Lunch in the Great Hall. You will report to the Great Hall at Lunch. Is that clear?" "Yes Sir." "Good. Now I am going to bed."
Harry left the room and curled up on his mat in the corner, quickly falling into sleep.
