Chapter5: Secrets Unveiled and Pasts Remembered Part 1

He slowly opened his eyes, so he could adjust to the light that was streaming in from a nearby window. Something had awoken him, a soft high voice. Blinking away his sleepiness his nose caught a steamy sweet smell coming from some where close. He turned his head and squeaked in surprise at a long thin nose in his face and two big green eyes peering at him patiently.

"Trebel what are you doing here? What time is it?" Harry asked as he caught his breath. Trebel looked apologetic before gesturing to a clock on the wall in the design of a broom. It was eleven o' clock already; he had slept in for the first time in years.

"Trebel sir was just coming to wake Master Harry for Trebel has made some food for Master Harry," said Trebel in one breath excitedly as he snapped his fingers and a tray appeared. Pancakes with syrup and eggs with toast covered the plate. Pumpkin juice sat inconspicuously at the edge of the tray silently.

"Thank you Trebel," said Harry earnestly and laughed when his stomach gave a loud lurch. "Guess I am sort of hungry eh?" said Harry with a soft chuckle.

"Trebel guesses you are Master Harry for your stomach tells us so," said Trebel in a serious manner. "Do you need my services anymore sir?" asked Trebel quickly as he bounced on his heels.

"Have you eaten yet Trebel?" asked Harry as he sat up so he could properly eat. Trebel inclined his head ever so slightly in a confused manner before shaking his head. "Well sit down then and let us eat this fine meal together," laughed Harry as he beckoned the hysteric house-elf over.

"But Trebel sir could never eat with the Master, tis not right for me, tis not proper," Trebel muttered quickly as bright green eyes met darker ones.

"Well today I say it is proper and what I say goes right Trebel?" asked Harry already knowing the answer but smiling all the same when Trebel nodding happily.

"Well sir if I must but only if I must," murmured Trebel a bit to happy as he struggled to get on Harry's tall bed. Harry chuckled before grabbing the small house-elf and lifting Trebel up to sit next to him.

"You must," Harry said just as quietly. "So what kinds of food do you like Trebel?" asked Harry curiously as he had never asked a house-elf what they ate before.

"Oh! Us house-elves eat just as you do sir except I tend to stray away from the desserts as they make poor Trebel's stomach ache with sweetness," said Trebel as he snapped his fingers and another tray appeared but water lay in the glass instead of pumpkin juice.

"Does it now? That is interesting any idea as to why?" asked Harry as he stabbed a cut piece of pancake with his fork that had been supplied to him by Trebel.

"Well I do have a theory sir…" said Trebel. It continued much like that for a half of hour. Questions were asked and answers were given freely and stomach were filled and cured from their hunger.

"What is Master Harry to do today sir?" asked Trebel as they finished and he banished away the dirty trays of food.

"Actually I was wondering if you could show me to a library as I have some business I must attend to," said Harry as he hopped off his bed in a rush. He picked up Trebel and gently set his feet to the soft ground.

"Of course sir, Trebel would be most happy to show you as it is just down a few halls," said Trebel as he closed his eyes. Harry looked curious as to why he was doing so but after a few random thoughts came to the conclusion that he needed to get dressed as he was still in his silkily pajamas.

He walked over to his vast closest and picked out some dark jeans and an ordinary black shirt. He dressed quickly and slipped on a pair of dark slippers that looked comfy as he did not feel like wearing regular shoes. He stepped out of his closet and walked over to the bathroom. He used the lavatory and then looked into the mirror and scoffed at his appearance.

His hair was short and messy as it used to be when he was young and to say he did not like it was an understatement. He tried to make the stubborn black hair lay straight but to no avail. He messed it all up before walking out a bit angrily.

"You can look now Trebel and can we please go now?" asked Harry not waiting for an answer as he walked outside of his room and waited patiently for the small house-elf to catch up.

"Sir is there a problem?" asked Trebel as the familiar fearful look came into Trebel's dark green eyes. Harry looked apologetic as he smiled reassuringly at the small house-elf who relaxed immediately at the small gesture.

"I am fine just a little depressed but that is all. Now if we could?" asked Harry as he gestured for Trebel to lead the way. Trebel nodded and started walking toward the stairs before leading his master down quickly and quietly. Silence reigned as Trebel led him past the entrance hall and over to two double doors made from glass. He looked inside of the doors and could see some shelves and tables and smiled happily at the comforting room.

"Thanks Trebel and if you could come in a few hours with some lunch, that would be most appreciated," said Harry as Trebel nodded happily before snapping his fingers and leaving with a crack. Harry took in a gulp of fresh air before opening the doors and walking in quietly. He stopped in the middle of the room to look at his surroundings.

Bookcases of books stood gracefully in front of him labeled at the top with titles such as Defense Charms or Transfiguration Dueling. He looked up and saw there was a second floor and looked around for a staircase. He soon found it and smiled lightly before finishing his look about. Dark red leather couches sat in the corners of the room and cherry wood tables stood proudly in the center. Black lounge chairs lay around in different places looking comfy.

"Well best get started as I could be here for a while," he muttered quietly to himself and set out toward a bookcase with a label deemed Miscellaneous Books on Curses. He started picking out random books and looking through the index not knowing exactly as to what he was looking for.

A couple of hours past by and he found nothing. He had looked through quite a few numbers of books all which turned out to be irrelevant. He heaved a sigh as he fell back lazily onto one of the red couches. He stomach growled loudly as he thought about some nice steaming food to eat. As if by magic a small crack was heard and Trebel appeared in front of him holding two trays of food.

"Trebel has come back with some food for you master and as I have not eaten yet," said Trebel slyly as he went over to a near by table and sat down placing the trays of food on the table carefully. Harry got up reluctantly, stretched and walked quickly over to the nice aroma smelling food.

"So has Master Harry found anything yet?" asked Trebel to break the silence set upon them.

"No I am not sure where to look, I need some old prophets," he muttered more to himself not really expecting Trebel to hear him. On the contrary Trebel heard him and squealed in excitement as he jumped up and down on his chair.

"If Master Harry eats all his food Trebel will show him where Masters keep all the prophets," said Trebel as he ate some mashed potato happily.

"Really? Thanks Trebel," exclaimed Harry as he quickly ate as he had been awaited some answers all day.

"But Master Harry must eat as you are to skinny," reprimanded Trebel as he shook a long pointed finger at Harry with a stern expression on his face. Harry nodded as he had food in his mouth; he swallowed and stuffed some more right back in.

They ate in silence one being to happy and the other to anxious to say a word. They both finished rather quickly and Trebel cleared the dishes away before jumping off his seat and landing on his bottom heavily. Trebel laughed at his predicament and Harry soon joined it a bit more reserved and softly. Harry offered his small hand to the small house-elf who gratefully took it.

"This way sir we must go up the stairs," said Trebel as he held onto Harry's hand and dragged him toward the staircase. The climbed the medium sized staircase slowly and quietly, silence had reigned once more upon the two. They soon reached the top and Harry was dragged toward a large muggle type filing cabinet.

"In this muggle contraption is Daily Prophets as far back as when it first started," said Trebel as he gestured toward the ordinary looking cabinet. "You should be able to find whatever you are looking for Master in here," Trebel added quietly as he snapped his fingers and left Harry with his mouth agape.

"That's a lot of years!" Harry exclaimed as he looked at the small cabinet in wonder. He laughed as the thought of, "Well that's magic for yah," and opened the cabinet and pulled out the first Prophet it was form a few days ago. The title read "Lightning Strikers Lose the Big One!" Well if that is the headliner nothing must be going on here to worry to much about," Harry said to himself as he put the Prophet back neatly. He closed the cabinet and opened up the second drawer and pulled out the first Prophet. This Prophet was from 1981, the title read, "Longbottom Manner Attacked by You-Know-Who," Harry set the Prophet down before quickly grabbing the next one. It read, "Neville Longbottom the-Boy-Who-Lived!"
