Chappie Fifteen
"How old is he now?" Harry asked.
"Fifty something," Ron said. The two were in the kitchen. Harry was washing the dishes, as Ron dried the rest.
"How is Charlie taking it?" Hermione said standing over the stove as she mixed a pot of rice. Hermione had made a large turkey which was now in the oven.
"I don't know," Ron said, he then added in a disgusted voice, "He and Enlil moved in with Snape, in Serenity's home."
"What!" Harry said, sounding even more disgusted then Ron.
"Well, Enlil is Snape's son," Hermione pointed out.
"I realise that," Harry snapped. "But, as if Snape gives a damn about Enlil. He'll hurt him and Charlie."
"I read a bit about the potion," Hermione said, the two boys gave each other a look which said 'no surprise there.' Hermione ignored the look. "Not only is it a pregnancy potion it's also a love potion. So long as Enlil is alive, Charlie and Snape will like each other. Once he dies however…they'll try to kill each other."
"I won't let Snape hurt my brother," Ron said, briskly. "I'll kill Snape before he gets the chance to."
"I'll help you," Harry assured, flaring up. "No matter what Dumbledore says about him in the memory, I won't forgive him. It's has fault my parents, Sirius and Dumbledore are dead."
Hermione wanted to argue but decided against it. So instead she asked Harry what he had prepared for the first lesson of DA.
"It depends on who attends," Harry said, calming down. "Obviously all the older students I'll have bigger things prepared. But for the first years, I think shielding spells, and easy jinxes would be a good start."
"Good idea," Ron said. "You think any of the Slytherins are gonna join other then Malfoy, Bulstrode and Blaise?"
"Maybe," Harry said. "Some of the younger years might."
"I heard from Blaise that Theodore Nott may join," Hermione said.
"Who's that?" Ron asked. Hermione and Harry both sighed.
"The Slytherin boy in our year," Hermione pointed out. "He is a bit of a loner. He isn't as rude as the rest of them."
"Oh yeah," Ron said realising which boy the meant. "The thin teeny-tiny one? The boy who could see the threstrals?"
"Yeah," Harry said, smirking, shutting the water. "Finally, I thought they'd never finish."
"There are still the plates after we eat dinner," Hermione said, "Which is ready."
"Good," Harry said, "We can go through more of the memories."
-------
Charlie held the cup of water in front of his son's mouth as the fifty year old coughed and coughed. Severus stood behind him thumping him on the back softly.
"Stop," He hacked, "I'm fine, this is normal."
"No its not," Severus muttered, "You shouldn't have to go through any of this."
"I'm okay dad," Enlil whispered, he added in a lame attempt at a joke, "No more ice-cream for me."
Charlie stroked his son's black hair, some parts tainted with a greyish tinge.
"I don't want to lose you," Charlie whispered, "Or Severus."
"You wont," Enlil muttered, "I'll always be with you; even if you can't see me, mum."
-------
Serenity sat in front of her first year potions class, she had twenty students from the Gryffindor and Slytherin houses. Other then the Zaiden twins the students sat in there own houses. Serenity sighed, and stood up.
"Every one get up and move to the back of the room please," Serenity said, softly. All the students jumped up and ran to the back, excitedly. "Okay, I want you all to tell me your name, something you like, and how old you are please. We can start with you."
She pointed at a fat auburn haired boy in Slytherin, as she mustered all her strength not to point that out loud.
"My name is Peter Boyle," He said proudly. "I like pure-bloods and I am eleven."
"I like pure-bloods too," Serenity smirked. "I don't really wish to drink the blood of a person with AIDS."
Most of the students laughed, most of them were Muggle-borns.
"What's AIDS?" A Slytherin girl with dark brown wavy hair asked.
"It's a disease," Serenity said, "I don't know much about it destroys your blood slowly. Both wizards and muggles alike are in danger from the disease. Now what's your name?"
"Tiana Regal," She answered, "I like jelly beans and I'm eleven."
"Alright," Serenity muttered. "Let's just stick to our names."
"Okay," the students said together.
"You can start," Serenity said suddenly getting annoyed at the children's chirpiness. She pointed to another Slytherin, a black boy with braided hair.
"I'm Markus Hoop," he said.
By the time they had finished. Serenity had learnt there was four Gryffindor boys; Jake Breenins, Ayden Arlenden, Mitchell White, and Timothy Speel, and six girls; Drusilla Zaiden, Petal Greenday, Jessica Clearwater, Jennifer Logii, Rebecca Oley and Ashley Ray. In Slytherin there was five boys; Peter Boyle, Drusus Zaiden, James Corocus, Markus Hoop and Simon Stamord, and five girls, Tiana Regal, Sarah Pears, Tamar Rammons, Raphaella Deens, and Michelle Siyaers.
"Okay great," Serenity said, "When I call out you name I want you to come and sit at your new desk. You will remain in these seats for the rest of the school year. The person you are with will be your partner. You will treat them respect and they will treat you with respect. Drusus and Ayden please come and sit here in front of my table."
The two boys, both twins, walked up to their new seats. Drusus stared back at his sister. Serenity noticed this.
"Okay Drusilla, Simon you can sit behind them," Serenity said. "Tiana, Jennifer you can sit opposite of Ayden and Drusus."
The two girls moved to the front of the class and sat down. "Markus, Timothy you can sit behind the girls. Raphaella and Jake sit behind Drusilla and Simon. Mitchell, Peter behind Markus and Timothy. Tamara, Petal, you two can sit there and Rebecca and Sarah you two can sit there."
The class all moved to their new seats and waited for their teacher's new orders. She walked up to the front of the class and sat down. She hoisted her feet onto the table and smiled.
"Okay," Serenity said, "Who wants to make a potion now?"
"Yes!" All the students said excitedly.
"Alright," Serenity smiled. "We can do a simple healing potion. I'll have the instructions on the board in a second."
She pulled out her wand and leaned back wards in her chair. The moment she tapped her wand the instructions appeared on the wall. All the first years gaped or cheered in excitement. She was about to lean back when the chair toppled over. All the students gasped as she stood up looking dishevelled.
"Number one rule in potions," Serenity said, in a high pitched voice, "No leaning on your chairs."
The students laughed, "Okay, get all of the ingredients and start. If you have any difficulty, call me."
---------
The Third Memory.
Harry, Ron and Hermione looked around to find them self in a large bedroom. In one side of the room was dresser with perfumes and make up. A large mirror was above the dresser and the reflection of a twenty-something Serenity was seen from it. She was lying on her large bed reading a paperback book. Harry saw the cover of the book, it was titled; 'Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers.'
There was a soft knocking from the door; Serenity looked up putting her book down. 'Come in.'
The door was pushed opened, revealing its knocker. Octavian stood in a baggy black tracksuit and a huge red warm-looking jumper. He walked towards Serenity and pointed down to the ground. 'Some guy wants you.'
'Who?' Serenity said, standing up.
'Dunno,' Octavian muttered, 'I don't like him though. I get the jeebies from him.'
'Tav,' Serenity sighed, 'you get the jeebies from every one.'
He shrugged as Serenity brushed past him and headed downstairs to greet her visitor. The trio rushed after her. Ron accidentally ran through Octavian in the process.
"Whoops," He muttered as they ran down the stairs. Serenity reached bottom just as Harry reached the top, he gasped when a he saw a young Tom Riddle standing by the door smiling charmingly at her.
'Who the hell are you?' Serenity said, ignoring the smile.
'My name is Tom Riddle,' Voldemort said, softly looking around. Ron and Hermione both gasped as well on hearing his name.
'And what do you want,' Serenity said, 'More importantly how did you find me?'
'I found you through an old friend.' He said. Serenity stared at him with suspicion.
'Do I know him?'
'No,' Voldemort said. 'He is a worker at the Ministry of magic though.'
'Oh,' Serenity said, still staring warily. 'What do you want?'
'I wish to now if you offer immortality?' Tom said. Harry laughed, bleakly. 'I understand you are a vampire, and one of the most powerful at that.'
'Sorry bub,' Serenity said, unemotionally 'but I do not offer immortality to anybody. I choose the person. They do not ask me for it. I just met you, and I don't trust you.'
'Well, how about we get to know one another?' Voldemort said, his eyes gleaming. Serenity was about to answer when Octavian came tearing down the stair case screaming.
'SNAKE! IN MY ROOM! BIG HUGE HIDEOUS SNAKE!'
Serenity looked up towards her cousin's room, as the younger vampire ran past her and out the door and house, almost tripping down the stairs and over the rug. She turned to see the door slam shut, she shook her head.
'And to say he is the son of Gryffindor,' Serenity muttered walking up to the room. Voldemort looked up at the retreating vampire back.
'Did you say son of Gryffindor?' He asked. Serenity turned and nodded.
'Yes,' Serenity said, 'I'm gonna go kill this so-called snake, which will probably be his sock.'
'Don't you dare kill that snake,' Voldemort snarled. Serenity stared at him with even more distrust. Voldemort then said, 'I'm against murder of any creature.'
"Bull shit!" Harry screamed. Ron and Hermione jumped in fright as Serenity gave him a small smile.
'You can have it then,' Serenity said, 'this may take a while, so wait here and touch nothing.'
'Alright,' Voldemort said, sounding very honest. Serenity disappeared from sight just as Octavian opened the door and walked in.
'Is it gone?' He asked. Voldemort shook his head. 'Where is it?'
'In your room,' Voldemort answered, 'Ms Eden is retrieving it.'
'Oh, good,' Octavian sighed, happily. Some thing about him made the trio laugh; he seemed so innocent and sweet. The watched as he walked of and out of sight.
"What's he looking for?" Harry said, as Voldemort looked around. There was a large book shelve with books, vases, a few teddy bears, two picture frames, one Serenity and Octavian together and the other was the pair with Halle and Gabriella. The final item was what intrigued Voldemort enough to pick it up. Harry leaned over and saw a small dagger in his hands. It was made of a bronze-like substance and was crafted with a blue colouring. On the blade the word 'Rowena' was carved on it as the handle had an 'R' on it. Voldemort turned it around to see a dark blue eagle engraved on to the handle.
'Ravenclaw,' Voldemort muttered to himself. He smiled evilly.
"What is that?" Ron asked. Hermione leaned in to stare at it.
"Rowena Ravenclaw's dagger," Harry said. "Though she doesn't seem to be one who would carry a dagger around."
"Tell me about it," Ron said, surprised. There was a knocking on the door. Voldemort turned around and faced the door. He smiled like the Grinch before walking to the door. He opened it, revealing a post man.
'I got a package for a Ms Eden,' He said, handing a wrapped box to Voldemort. 'I need you to sign here.'
Voldemort glared at the man but obliged taking the clipboard from the postman He signed it with a muggle pen looking very annoyed at having to use a muggle product. Harry noticed the dagger was still in his hand, as did the postman.
'People still use swords in this day and age?' the post man joked. Voldemort nodded at the short man before forcing the dagger into the man's neck. The postman's eyes widened as the dagger was pulled out. The trio all gasped in utter shock, none had ever seen a person murdered in a heinous muggle way before. The man dropped to the ground and breathed no more just as Voldemort pulled out his wand. His wand was pointed at the dagger as he began to rock his body in an even pace. He began to chant some words in another language neither one of the trio had ever heard. However, all three managed to pick up the word horcrux. He was suddenly engulfed by a bright light which split in the middle, revealing him once more panting in pain.
'What the hell?' Voldemort spun around as did the trio. Octavian stood, shaking with a sandwich in his hand, as he stared at the dead body of the postman and then at Voldemort. 'Who the hell are you?'
Voldemort pointed his wand out and spoke firmly, 'Petrificus Totalus.'
Hermione screamed as Octavian went rigid and fell over with a thud as Voldemort turned back to the body. He cast a spell to transfigure the body to a bone. He picked it up and pocketed it. He then cast a spell on the dagger to clean the blood. He looked over to Octavian and said, 'I will leave this here.'
Octavian lay silently his eyes following Voldemort to the shelf were he put the knife back. 'In the mean time, I don't want you telling that cousin of yours what I am doing. I did not come here to become a vampire. I knew you were related to that muggle loving bastard Godric Gryffindor. I planted that snake in the room, as I need something that belongs to him. But I never thought Ravenclaw would have a dagger.'
"You're the bastard," Harry snarled angrily attempting to hit Voldemort but his hand slipped through him. Ron knelt beside Octavian and attempted to drag him away from Voldemort but couldn't touch him as it was a memory. Hermione pulled both men away as Voldemort pulled his wand out.
'It is a pity I can't kill you,' Voldemort snarled. 'Salazar Slytherin would have been pleased to see his heir kill Godric Gryffindor's bastard son.'
Octavian glared at him, attempting to fight the spell as Voldemort cast another. 'Obliviate.'
Octavian's eyes glazed over as Voldemort told him he'd remember nothing of what happened, that he had been making his sandwich the whole time. He un-petrified him, and pulled him up by his golden hair, before throwing him into the kitchen roughly. Voldemort turned around and stood by the stair case as Serenity struggled down the stair case with a large snake in her arms. It was attempting to fight her off, so in annoyance she threw it down the stairs and into Voldemort. He almost stumbled when she landed on him but he wrapped her around his shoulders and smiled at Serenity. Harry grinded his teeth in annoyance as Serenity glared at the snake.
'Stupid thing,' Serenity snapped, 'it bit me a thousand times. It's lucky I didn't bite back.'
Voldemort cackled evilly as Serenity glared at him. 'Have you named the hideous thing? I would call it Shit-head myself.'
'I named her when you walked up to get her,' Voldemort said. Serenity stared at him oddly. 'Her name is Nagini.'
'Nagigi?' Serenity repeated as the trio gazed in wonder at the snake.
"I wonder how old she is," Harry said.
'Nagini,' Voldemort corrected. 'Well since you do not grant immortality to anyone I may as well leave. It was a pleasure meeting you and your cousin.'
'Yeah, good for you,' Serenity said ushering him to the door. 'I was reading a book before you rocked up so I'll see you around.'
'Good-bye,' Voldemort smiled as the door was shut.
--------
"HOW DARE HE DO THAT TO HIM?" Harry roared, once they were back in their own time. Ron looked just as livid as Harry as Hermione walked over to the chalk board and read a segment out loud, hoping to calm both her friends.
"Artefact of Rowena Ravenclaw. Something with a Bronze Eagle engraved into it. Or a 'R'"
"I have to change that now," Harry said, picking up a piece of chalk. He began to change the segment so it read:
Ravenclaw's Dagger.
With Serenity Eden hopefully, to be destroyed soon.
"Well, we're gonna see her tomorrow," Harry said. "In the mean time, do you want to go through more memories or have a break?"
"We have to have a break," Hermione said. "I think we need to destroy the dagger first then move onto the next memory.
"Okay," Harry said.
"So what do you guys wanna do?" Ron said. "We could go to Hogwarts today and ask Serenity during dinner?"
"That's now," Harry said. "Good idea; lets go now instead."
--------
"Add a bit more beetle legs, Pete," Serenity said peering into cauldron which was a pale green. It was bubbling deeply. His partner, Mitchell handed him the beetle roots. "Stir it softly until it goes almost clear."
"Yes miss," Mitchell said as he began to stir.
"Drusus," Serenity said, pulling small jar out of the boy's hand. "You don't need Monkseed in this potion, especially when there in Sidemen in it. You'll blow up the entire room, and I don't remember what spell was used last time to clear it up."
"Sorry," He said softly.
"Doesn't matter," Serenity said placing the jar onto the shelf. "But you have to be careful as some ingredients don't work to well with on another."
"Okay," Drusus nodded.
"How are all of your potions going?" Serenity said, she looked into Drusilla's cauldron and smiled, "Okay Drusilla, Simon, your potion is fine. Let it cool and then pour it into a few jars. Tiana, Jen, you two can do the same. Mark, Tim keep string gently, it should be done soon. That goes for you two, Jake and Raph. The rest of you are fine, let it cool."
She walked back and stared into Tiana and Jennifer's cauldron, "Perfect." She turned to Tim and Marks and grinned again, "Perfect, okay every one sit down and wait for you potion to cool. Then we can take it to Madam Pomfrey. I think every one deserves five points to their house."
The students cheered happily as Serenity leaned back on her chair again. She fell over once more when some body began knocking on the large wooden door. "What?"
The door opened revealing the Golden Trio. Serenity stood up and dusted her clothes off. A few of the students gasped when they saw Harry.
"Serenity do you have a few minutes?" Harry asked. Serenity looked at her class, and nodded.
"Make them quick minutes," Serenity said.
"Can we talk in private?" He asked, "Ron and Hermione can watch the class."
"Okay," Serenity said, "You lot be good for Ron and Hermione."
"Yes miss," the class tuned in.
-------
"What's up?" Serenity said once she shut the door to the Dungeons.
"We saw another vision," Harry said.
"What of?" Serenity said, her memory was hopeless "The only things I remember these days are food, how I'm gonna kill Greyback and se-never mind the last."
Harry smirked slightly. "It was when Voldemort came over your house asking to be made a vampire. He planted a snake-"
"Nagini," Serenity said, "That memory is a mix of mine and Octavian."
"Wait! You can mix memories?" Harry asked. Serenity nodded. "How?"
"You just get the exact memory from both minds and place them in the same pensieve," Serenity said. "The pensieve has its own magic, so it can sort out the memories and put them into a good order. It creates a much clearer memory, though I don't know much about what happened after I went upstairs to get the snake."
"Voldemort killed the postman and created another horcrux," Harry said.
"Please tell me it's not Ravenclaw's dagger?" Serenity sighed. Harry nodded. "Damn it!"
"What's wrong?"
"That dagger is made of a mixture of gold and silver," Serenity said, "but it looks like bronze."
"What's your point?" Harry asked, he didn't see the importance of what the dagger was made from.
"That dagger is what I'm going to use to kill Greyback," Serenity said. She muttered something under her breathe, so softly Harry only understood "can't …vampire… half-breeded half-breed."
"What?" Harry asked
"Never mind," Serenity said. "I can't get the dagger today, cause I'm going to be teaching all day today. And I have mostly Slytherin and Gryffindor classes today."
"Poor you," Harry laughed.
"Tell me about it," Serenity sighed. "Oh well. I can try to get it tonight or I can get Severus to send it to me."
"Don't let him touch it," Harry snarled. Serenity looked a little startled but then smiled.
"You still pissed off about D'Dore's death?" Serenity said, Harry gave her a look of confusement so she said, "Dumbledore."
"Oh," Harry said, "Well not just that."
"Hmmm," Serenity said. "Well maybe you should talk to him about it?"
"I'd rather not see him," Harry snorted. Serenity nodded, biting her crimson red lip.
"I think Octavian maybe home," Serenity said. "You can go over, and ask him for the dagger. Just make sure you don't try to wake him up. He is like Oscar the Grouch more then Octavian."
Harry sniggered as the pair entered the class. Ron was walking around in a very Snape-like walk with mocking all the Gryffindors. The entire class were in an uproar laughing and giggling. None of them had noticed Harry or Serenity walk in, so Serenity held her finger against her lip motioning to Harry to be silent. He watched as her light-coloured robes changed to black, her small nose became a hooked nose, her long silky black hair shortened to black grease, and her creamy pale skin went sallow.
"MR WEASLEY!" She hollered, her voice had also changed to a familiar greasy voice Harry knew too well. The entire class jumped in utter fear and stared at what they thought was Snape.
"What the hell are-"
"I'LL BE ASKING THE QUESTIONS! HOW DARE YOU MOCK ME? YOU WEASELY LITTLE DUNDERHEAD!"
Ron went bright red as Harry burst out laughing; Snape began to giggle very un-Snape like as he suddenly changed to Serenity.
"That is not funny!" Ron snapped, although he too succumbed to laughter as did Hermione and the first years.
---------
"Hey!" The trio turned to see Blaise, Malfoy and Millicent walking towards them
"Hey," the trio returned.
"What are you three doing here?" Blaise asked when they finally reached the Gryffindor trio.
"We needed to see Serenity," Harry said, "What did you guys just have?"
"Transfiguration," Blaise answered, sniggering, "We had to transfigure each other into animals."
"Shut up," Draco muttered, Blaise roared with laughter, pointing at Draco. Millicent was grinning slightly.
"What's so funny?" Harry asked.
"Draco was partnered with Dean Thomas," Millicent said, "Dean some how transfigured him into a rabbit once and then a weasel. Both rodents, just like the ferret."
Once she finished, she too was laughing with Blaise as were the trio.
"And you have the nerve to call me a weasel," Ron sniggered, punching Draco playfully in the arm.
"It wasn't that funny," Draco snarled, venom seeping down his lips.
"Yes, it was," Blaise said, the four other teenagers went silent as Draco went bright red.
"IT WAS NOT!" He shouted at the top of his lungs. Blaise stared at Draco like he had two heads.
"Okay," Blaise said, "Somebody needs their medication."
He grabbed Draco by the arm and pulled him away from group. Ron and Harry ran after them and began to playfully wrestle with the two Slytherins. Millicent let out a whistle.
"They have finally lost it," she smirked. Hermione laughed and the pair began to follow the boys.
"I think we all have," Hermione said, "I mean you're talking to a mudblood like we are friends."
"Yes well," Millicent smirked. "I'm a blood traitor aren't I?"
"Hmm," Hermione thought, "Why did Parkinson call you that any way?"
"Oh, my mother dis-anointed her loyalty to you-know-who," she said, "My father's in Azkaban thanks to him, and it's been more then a year."
"You actually wanted to be a death eater?"
"No," Millicent answered, "Most of the Slytherin's don't want to either. They are just too scared to admit it."
"Some times it's hard not to feel sorry for you guys," Hermione mumbled.
"Don't," Millicent said, "We hate being pitied. Any way, Professor's Eden and Dumbledore both spoke to the three of us. They are going to try and turn all the Slytherins away from You-know-who, they asked us to help them."
"Help them how?" Hermione asked.
"Talk to them, I suppose," Millicent shrugged, "They didn't really give us any ideas."
"So how are the Gryffindors treating you?" Hermione said.
"Well Parvati and Brown are ignoring me," Millicent said, in a highly chipper voice which made Hermione smile, "Finnegan and Long-butt talk to me every now and then."
"Please don't call Neville that?" Hermione asked, kindly.
"Sorry, but his last name is long,"
"So call them by their first name," Hermione suggested, "It's a great way of making them friends faster. It builds a sense of trust."
"Nice words of wisdom," Millicent smirked.
"Well I wanted to become a psychologist before I knew of Hogwarts," Hermione said. Millicent raised a brow. "That or the next Prime-Minister."
---------
"Okay," Harry said empting the pensieve of the memory, which was placed back into the vial. "Serenity said all we had to do was apparate to Hunter's Village in Ireland, and look for purple-bricked house. She said the key is hidden in a pot."
"Let's go then," Ron said. "Like you said, the faster we destroy them, the better."
"But how do we now where in the house it is?" Hermione asked.
"We can ask Octavian," Harry said. He placed the vial numbered 'three' into the large chest between two and four. He looked up at his two friends, "Snape's gonna be there."
"Damn," Ron said.
"Harry, maybe just two of us should go," Hermione said, "I can't hold you both back."
Both boys suppressed sniggers. Ron nodded, "Then I'll stay, you two go. I wanna eat any way."
Harry and Hermione rolled their eyes together. "I hate when you two do that."
-----------
Half an hour later Hermione and Harry had left for Serenity's place. Ron was in his bedroom reading through on of his old comics while eating a packet of muggle chips. He, Harry and Hermione had brought food from a nearby supermarket; Ron was amazed at all of the things he had seen there.
But he had bit of an embarrassing moment when he picked up a box of what he thought were lollies. Hermione and Harry both went bright red when Hermione pointed out it was a muggle contraception device called domcoms, or so he thought. He blushed a brighter red then the two and threw the packet of domcoms over his shoulder; it hit an elderly man, who appeared very angry muttering about the new generation and the old days.
Ron looked up at the large extensive bookshelf that was against the wall. He threw the comic over his shoulder and pushed him self up and stumbled tiredly towards the book shelf. His eyes wondered around the shelf, he pulled at a book which had no title only to find it was stuck.
"What the hell?" he pulled harder until he felt the ground underneath him disappear. He fell with a thump onto the cold ground. Ron stood up quickly wincing in pain as he had landed oddly on his left leg. He looked above him to see the whole close over and shut completely, killing the light. Ron swore under his breathe and pulled out his wand. "Lumos."
The room light up with the light from his wand. Ron stared around to find a small table with a few books scattered on it and a photo frame. He limped over to the table, biting his lip; he pulled out the chair and sat on the chair. He grabbed one of the books and read the cover. 'Diary of Godric Gryffindor.' This book is ancient. Ron raised a brow and opened it, flipping through each page. Delicate fine font was inscribed through out the entire book.
16th Jan- Sazzy's Birthday.
Got Salazar a silver cane. It had a snake carved into it. Could not resist. He turned seventeen, finally a man…so to speak. Rowena and Helga brought him a nice set of robes together. He looked like quite a gentleman with his cane and suit. Serenity the cheeky little brat said he looked like a hooker's man. I don't know were she learnt that word, definitely not me, I hope. But if Octavian learns that word, she better watch out. She was lucky Salazar didn't hear what she said.
Ron laughed softly and turned a few pages
30th April- Rowena's pregnant.
Rowena has found out she is pregnant…she tried to kill the father, but Salazar and I managed to calm her…after Salazar petrified her. Helga was quite angry at Salazar, something about harming the baby. Salazar pointed out he petrified her; he had not put the torture spell on her. Didn't change Helga's mind though…
Ron scratched his nose and sneezed deeply before turning the pages.
10th September- Serenity's Eleventh birthday.
She seemed to like the horse I got her; Salazar however didn't appreciate its droppings on his legs. Octavian made her a necklace from shells. One still had a hermit inside it. Serenity didn't seem to please when she found it snapping at her neck. It's a miracle he didn't kill the poor creature when he made the necklace. Serenity decided to keep the crab, she called it Pincher. How original…
Ron turned the pages once more.
19th December- Octavian's Ninth Birthday.
Brought my little boy an invisibility cloak. He used it to trip Salazar over. The bloody imbecile ruined my son's cake. Serenity was quite peeved as she had baked it. Speaking of Serenity she brought Octavian an Otter. He named the small pest Octavia the Otter. It left its droppings in my shoes, which I stupidly left in her way.
Ron turned to the end of the book and left the final page of the book. It had two entries.
30th January - Salazar makes good suggestion. Octavia Dies
Snake boy, as I have now christened him, made a good suggestion when he heard Serenity complaining about not having any were to learn about magic. He suggested opening a school. Helga and Rowena agreed, but I pointed out we needed a place to build it. Serenity suggested a place, a large hill, next to a lake. I think she choose the perfect place. In other news Octavian's Otter died after one of our guests sat on it. Stupid fat bastard, made my little boy cry. Salazar gave him what he deserved, I'm sure he'll check were he puts that fat ass of his next time. Serenity let our guest know this of course.
Ron burst out laughing in amusement but continued to read.
March 18th – Rowena had a boy.
My dear old friend had a healthy little boy. She named him Romulus, he looks just like her. Serenity said he looked like a ghost. That girl and that bloody mouth of hers. In other news, our school is going well; Salazar seems to think it will be ready to be opened by September. Helga has already prepared a list of students to invite. The four of us have already disagreed on who we wish to teach. Salazar wants the pure-bloods, Rowena the smart ones, and I want the brave ones. Helga says she will take the rest, Salazar didn't seem happy about this.
Ron placed the first book down and picked up the next. He opened it and began to read.
August 19th – Named school and made a motto.
After months of calling our school, 'our school' we have decided to name it Hogwarts. I am still trying to find out were Helga came up with the name, but Rowena and Salazar both loved it. I think it is odd. Serenity helped with the motto. She was feeding Romulus when Octavian began to talk to her non-stop. She seemed quite annoyed, but I love my little boy's voice. Eventually her anger got the better of her and she pour Romulus's food all over Octavian's head as she shouted "Draco Dormiens, Nunquam Titillandus!"
Both Octavian and Romulus began to cry as Salazar burst into laughter and suggested to make that the school's motto while Rowena and Helga comforted the boys. I think my sister's little girl is finally growing up, already throwing the dangerous temper tantrums all women are well known for.
Ron snorted agreeing with the author and turned a few more pages.
September 1st – Hogwarts open.
We had about fifty students. We all chose about twelve each and led them to their new quarters. Salazar and I argued about my niece. The fool thinks I'd leave her with all the boys he chose. The imbecile chose no other girls, and expects me to leave her alone with them. He understood once I threatened him, good thing he is a coward…
December 25th - Christmas
Most of the students went home for the break. Romulus is now able to walk, the brat knocked down on of the trees on Mr Hitenburg, the caretaker. Rowena seemed stunned at his strength but what she didn't realise was Salazar assisted him, just to annoy Mr Hitenburg.
More pages were turned and read until Ron finished the 2nd diary. He grabbed the third and opened it.
September 9th- Serenity attacked by vampire.
Some blasted vampire attacked my little niece. She is now a full vampire. Her powers are amazing, she is an immortal. Wood does not harm her, neither does the sun. She can change to any animal at will, can fly, can heal, can fight, can apparate by clicking her fingers, and can possess one. And that's just some of her powers.
She doesn't seem too angry at the fact she is no longer human, or so the ministry of magic says. Bastards. And only day till her fifteenth birthday. Oh and there is a new student in the school in the year above Serenity. He is a werewolf named Fenrir Cardenin, Serenity seems to taken an interest in him.
Ron raised a brow wondering what happened to the years before this book and after the last. He searched for another book but found there was only three. This was the biggest. He returned to reading the third book.
May 18th – killed evil man.
Salazar and I have finally killed Rondiq Hardish. The bastard split his soul in two, making a horcrux, which Serenity helped us find with that revealing spell. Salazar destroyed it with a death curse. He really likes saying that spell. Have to keep Salazar away from killing things, first that muggle, then the horcrux, and now Hardish. In news is Serenity seems to be going out with the werewolf. Salazar doesn't like him, but I just think Salazar likes Serenity and is jealous, of course I'd kill him if he tried anything.
October 19th – finally wrote in again
It's been a while, a few years actually. Hogwarts is going great, Romulus is now five. Serenity married the werewolf, and has a son. She named him Michael. I don't now who after, other then the arch angel. Octavian is seeing a girl called Janie; he is in his final year at Hogwarts. Salazar is going crazy, deciding all muggle-borns must die. He has been raving on about a thing called the chamber of secrets. Ever since we kill Hardish, the boy has lost it.
June 10th – Octavian's marriage.
Octavian has married his sweetheart only days after leaving school and she is already pregnant. I have a feeling he got her pregnant during school, oh well. Salazar had disappeared, haven't seen him in a few days.
July 11th – Official, Salazar has left.
Salazar has officially left the school. We found a letter addressed to myself, Rowena and Helga, a month after his disappearance. He said that he does not wish to be in a school muggle lovers and muggle-borns, although he didn't say it that nicely. I don't know what has gotten into him.
August 7th – Am a grandfather.
Octavian's wife had a healthy little girl, it appeared she was pregnant during school and covered up with few glamour spells. They named her Sarela, she is a complete angel.
December 25th – Terrible Christmas.
My poor boy was attacked by the same vampire that hurt my niece. He too is now a vampire. There was some good news however, Janie is pregnant again.
Ron continued to read, despite the overwhelming emotion filling him.
March 18th – Still no word.
My little boy refuses to speak a single word to me. Serenity tells me he feels guilty about what happened and the vampire bite. I have tried to reassure him nothing was his fault but he seems to think I have disowned him.
September 10th – Serenity's birthday and Octavian's daughter birthday
Janie had another beautiful girl, named Carina. I went to the birthing home, but my little boy was not there. Serenity told me he left only moments ago after seeing me come.
30th July - Finally
I have finally convinced my son after three years that I do not despise him. The poor boy cried and cried in my arms for hours. It felt good to hold the boy again. Though he ruined my best robes…
13th March
Serenity and Greyback have split up, apparently the scum had Serenity bit him to become an immortal. Salazar has returned, after so many years, he looks terrible, almost monkey like. He found out about what Greyback done, and then cursed the werewolf so that he'd never become a full immortal vampire until Serenity died. So he shall forever remain a werewolf. Serenity didn't seem to happy about this
He placed the book down and looked around seeing a family tree planted on the wall, just like the one in Grimmauld. He stumbled over ignoring the pain in his leg and stared at the tree. There was the photo of Godric Gryffindor, (his date of birth and death under his name) underneath another man and woman, which Ron presumed were his parents. Next to his picture was another man and woman with the picture of Serenity and her children. Under Godric were Octavian and his two daughters. Ron looked down the tree to see himself, his parents above him and his brothers around him; Bill's name was attached to Fleur's and Charlie's name was attached to Severus Snape's which was a few people underneath Serenity's. He was confused; he was related to Godric Gryffindor? He noticed under Snape and Charlie's name was Enlil's name. Ron stared at inscription under Enlil's name.
"What the hell?"
He was unable to finish his thought as some one struck him with a stupefy hex. He fell over with a thump as Serenity walked over and pulled him over her shoulder easily.

Next Chappie: Will Serenity kill Ron? Harry and Hermione have a confrontation with Snape… and they get the dagger. Dean begins to annoy Millicent. The DA begins, and Percy and Oliver meet up again…possible slash between the two… More death eater business…
I'm thinking of pairing Deany with Milli…but I also feel like pairing him with Blaise…bloody hell…DT/MB never heard of that ship before…I think maybe I might build it…
Hope the five-seven people who are reading this (It shows up in stats now, how cool is that!) are enjoying this…cuz this story now has a plot! And is going somewhere, other then the bin for once! Yay!
Don't own HP, or anything else mention…other then all the vampires…not including Sanguini…BTW I pronounce his name San-Gwen-Eye…it sounds cool!
Peace and Chicken Grease…
Afro!
