Harry Weasley
Chapter Thirty: Parselmouth
Harry walked up to the Headmaster's office with a worried look on his face. He had spent the last three hours in the library checking out what a parselmouth was, and he was actually wondering why he was one. He had read that the last one was Lord Voldemort himself, and that only Dark Witches and Wizards were one, because they were decedents of Salazar Slythein himself. He gave the password to the Headmaster's office when he got to the Gargoyles. "Skittles," and he walked up the stairs and knocked on the door.
"Come in Harry." Harry walked in and found that he was in the office of the Headmaster of Hogwart's and he had no idea on what he was going to ask or say. "Please sit down Harry, I think I know why you're here. You want to know why you can speak with the snakes, especially since it is only known to occur in Dark Witches and Wizards. Am I correct in assuming that this is why you are here at this time?" Dumbledore gave Harry one of his twinkling smiles, that always made people feel better.
"Yes sir that is why I am here. How did you know? Never mind, why do I have this ability, I'm not a Dark Wizard, nor am I a descendant of Salazar Slytherin as far as I know. Wouldn't I know if I was the Heir of Slytherin?" Harry was completely dumbfounded now, and he wanted answers.
"It doesn't matter how I know that was why you're here. No you're not a Dark wizard or a descendant of Slytherin which would have made you an Heir of Slytherin. There is only one known Heir, and he is Voldemort. You see when the dark lord gave you that scar. He also transferred some of his power to you. Which means, that he gave you the ability to speak the snake tongue, it would also mean that you have some other abilities that I would like to explore with you some time. Now is there anything else that you need Harry?"
"No I think that is all, unless you have some more books that I can look into more about this power, and the powers that I might have." Harry looked at him with anticipation hoping that he could help him. He also knew that he would have to go to his special room to get the new year's trunk that he hadn't opened yet.
"I might have a couple of books that you could borrow, but I think that the trunk that you will be opening soon, will have the books you need and in more details. You also won't have to return those books for they are your own." Again Dumbledore had completely surprised Harry in his knowledge about what he knew.
"Thank you Headmaster, I will probably be looking into those now. May I be excused please?" Harry was looking excited about the possibility of learning about what he may be able to do.
"Yes Harry, you may go. Now don't stay up too long while you are in there. You can take the trunk up to your dorm with you if you want. I'm sure that Ms. Granger and your brother would love to see what you got. Don't worry, they aren't magically sealed into that room, and they might help you in what you have to do this year." Dumbledore gave Harry one of his knowing smiles and dismissed him.
Harry immediately left the office, and went down to the room that held the trunks. He decided to take the trunk for this year with him up to his dorm and open it there. When he dragged it part of the way there, Dobby popped in and helped him with the trunk by taking it the rest of the way there.
When he got there, he dragged Hermoine and Ron up to his dorm to see what was in the trunk. "Common guys, I was told that this might help us out. I was also told that this should give me more information on why I can do the snake tongue more, also what other powers I might have. This should be interesting, and be of help with our studying." Harry took them up and opened the trunk. What they found in there would change their lives forever.
For when they opened the trunk, they found not only invisibility cloaks for all three of them, but also books for their knowledge and fun reading. It seems that Harry got a new invisibility cloak each year, because he keeps outgrowing the old ones. The books that they found were some of the most interesting. There was a book on advanced ani-magi training and what to do to prepare. A book on the powers and talents of Salazar Slytherin and Tom Riddle. A history of the heirs of Hogwart's, and what they could do. "Does this mean that either your one of the heirs, and are supposed to find the others, or you may be the heir of all of them?"
"I don't know Hermoine, but I don't think that I'm the heir of all of them. Let's look through that book more first. Now I want to see what else is in this trunk." They looked through the trunk some more, and Harry found that there was more money in it for him and noticed that there was a pouch for each of his two other friends. He was wondering why there was in this trunk, but not in the last trunk. Then he saw the note.
TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
Harry's Note
TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
My Dearest Harry:
I hope that this note finds you well. I bet you are wondering why the bags are starting in this trunk and not in your last years. Well that is not yours or theirs fault. You see, the trunk only puts the bags in there when they start going through the trunks with you. There will only be up to eight extra bags that will be put in here each year. Once that limit is reached, then you can't let any more people go through the trunk with you. Now the money won't go down at any time in which you get, for the money is coming directly from our private vault that you will get access to when you become of age, which is 17, or you get married, if for some reason you do before then.
Love your mom and dad

Back to Harry, Ron and Hermoine
TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
"Wow Harry. This is great. Do you think that they know that there is a total of nine of us that you would want to go through the trunks with you?" Ron was getting a smile on his face that Harry knew well.
"I don't know Ron, but here you two go, it should be enough for you two to get through the rest of the year without any problems." Harry tossed them there own bags that when they looked in them, they found that they each contained around 5000 gold galleons, and were bottomless and feather light.
"Thank you Harry, we will definitely put these to good use." Hermoine and Ron thanked him profusely.
"Your welcome guys, I think that they did this, because they are like me. They don't want me to end up like some rich Witches and Wizards and be stuck up. They want me to help my friends. Spend it well guys, you will get more next year. I will make sure that we open up the trunk before Christmas next year most definitely." They had fun going through some of the books, and finding out what is going on.
A/N: Ok, I'm sorry that I almost forgot to put in the Trunks this year. Please read and review. No Dobby hasn't been freed in this story, he doesn't need to be. He works at Hogwart's during the year to help out Dumbledore and Draco if need be. Donald
