Snakes and Discoveries

"Ow.. Mione, you're gonna pull off my arm!" exclaimed Ron as Hermione dragged him off to the library.

"Shut up Ron," muttered Hermione as she headed into a secluded section of the library. She pulled out a book.

"No, it's not this one," she said and put it back. She pulled out another one. "Nope, it isn't this one either." Ron groaned as he sat down at a table, near where Hermione was pulling books off the shelf and putting them back.

"Mione what are you looking for?" She ignored him and continued her search. "You know it would help if you'd tell me what you're looking for because I might be able to .... well .. I don't know..... HELP."

"Start looking over there," said Hermione, not even glancing up at him. "Look at the books about previous head girls of Hogwarts. Look for Sarah Williams, or Lily Evens." Ron frowned.

"Why?" Hermione rolled her eyes.

"Honestly Ron, if you don't know, I'm not going to tell you. Just find everything you can about Sarah Williams and Lily Evens." Ron shrugged and began looking.

After two hours of searching, Ron stood up.

"Where are you going?" asked Hermione.

"Well we did start searching ages ago. We left the common room at 4 in the morning, still in our nightclothes. I don't know about you, but I would like to have a shower and change." Hermione waved her hand at him.

"Go ahead," she said. "I'm going to keep looking."

"Whatever," said Ron. "I'll see you in thirty minutes. And I'll see if Colin is going to help us."

"Sure, but I think I've got the right book now, so I'll tell you when I've finished this." Ron nodded and headed back to the common room leaving his girlfriend to her research.

When Ron arrived in the common room after his shower, Colin was sitting on an armchair talking to Luna and an Asian girl whom he'd never really noticed before. The girl was talking to Colin, and then looked at the floor and said something, in a language that seemed familiar to him. Suddenly, it hit him. The girl was talking parseltongue.

"You've offended Zarina now Colin," she stated.

"Oh come on Zar, I didn't mean it honest," said Colin, looking at the floor. Ron cautiously made his way towards Colin. Suddenly, he felt something slide over his feet.

"AGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Snake!" he screamed. The Asian girl promptly started saying something in parseltongue. To his amazement, the snake went over to the girl and positioned itself in her lap.

"Sorry," said the girl. "I don't usually bring Zarina into the common room, but she gets bored being cooped up all day." Ron gulped.

"Yeah, it's okay." He hastily turned to Colin. "Colin, aren't you going to help Mione and me with that.... um ... thing?" Colin nodded.

"Yeah. Luna and Sapna want to help as well," he replied.

"Do they know about..... um." Colin nodded.

"Yeah. They know Ron. They managed to get it out of me earlier." Ron looked at Sapna suspiciously.

"Um, you're not going to bring that snake to the library are you?" Sapna laughed.

"No, I'll just go and put her back in her my dorm," said Sapna, grinning. Then she dashed up to the common room.

"Why has she got a snake?" asked Ron.

"In her country, having a snake and speaking parseltongue is an honour," supplied Luna. "Sapna told me that if a snake lives for over a hundred years, it can shape shift into any creature at will." Ron snorted. As if any one would believe that.

Sapna came down the stairs, in a traditional Indian trouser suit.

"Hey Saps," said Luna. "Tell Ron here about that snakes do once they're a hundred years old." Sapna smirked.

"Certainly," she said looking at Ron. "There is a certain type of snake in India, that once it reaches one hundred, it can shape shift. I know for a fact about a female snake that went after a human man for revenge, in the guise of a young girl, because he'd accidentally killed her mate. But then she fell in love with him and they got married."

"Yeah right. And how would you know?"

"Because I am her grand daughter. It is also the reason that I can speak parseltongue and my animagus form is a snake. Plus, Zarina is my great aunt on my mum's side of the family." Ron stared at her. Snakes were evil and why wasn't this girl in Slytherin?

"Right let's get going then shall we?" said Colin, breaking the strained atmosphere in the room.

Ron trudged along to the library with the other three in tow. Luna and Sapna were talking about films.

"Actually, the Indian film industry is coming to Scotland," said Sapna. "My sister and I went to Brunton Hall in Edinburgh to see them filming. It's a pity my favourite actor wasn't down," she chattered. "But I did get a few autographs."

Just as they approached the library, its doors burst open and Hermione ran out. She grabbed Ron and tried to tell him something.

"Mione what is it?" asked Ron.

"Ron ...... Harry ....." she managed to get out.

"Mione, calm down and tell me what's wrong?" Hermione shoved a book at him. He looked at her curiously and opened it at the page she had indicated. He then began reading it aloud.

"Liliannah Marie Evens. Head Girl. Chaser on the Gryffindor Quidditch team. The mother of Harry Potter. Best lesson charms. Worst Lesson Divination. Enjoys reading, playing pranks on the Marauders (see page 236),going to the cinema and playing quidditch. Hates Voldemort and his Deatheaters, asparagus, Sirius's dog Snuffles and her friends keeping secrets. Best friends, Arabella Figg, Raveena Kumar, James Potter, Remus Lupin, Sirius Black and Peter Pettigrew. Worst enemies, Voldemort, Narcissa Black, Bellatrix Black, Lucious Malfoy and Severus Snape. Current siblings at Hogwarts, Rosaline Eliza Evens. Boyfriend, James Potter. Parents, Sarah William Evan, former Head Girl and student and Jared Evens, and alleged muggle.

Liliannah or Lily, was a bright, caring and intelligent student. After successfully graduating as one of Hogwarts top five students, she went on to become one of the best auror's of the ministry along with her, now fiancée, James Potter. They wed on June 17 1979. She gave birth to their son Harry, on the 31st July 1980. She and her husband were murdered on Halloween Night of 1981, by none other than the Dark Lord. Her son Harry miraculously survived. He did not only not die, but reflected somehow managed to reflect the Dark Lords killing curse onto the Dark Lord himself.

Liliannah Marie Evans Potter was a truly remarkable young woman, who has given up her life to save the life of her son. The living legend and the Boy-Who-Lived, Harry Potter."

All five, with the exception of Hermione, were stumped.

"Bloody Hell!" exclaimed Ron.

"Cool," stated Luna. "This must mean that Harry has the blood of the Fae's in him."

"This is so ... um ... Wow," stuttered Colin.

"This is soooooo weird. Wait till I tell Zarina."

Hermione groaned.

"Listen, if Jareth and Sarah find out that Harry is Liliannah's son, then he might either keep him in the underground OR help us win the fight against Voldemort. There's only one thing we can do," she stated.

"What's that?" asked Colin.

"Well for one, I need to shower and change." Ron shook his head and smirked at his girlfriend. "Then we go and see Dumbledore about this."

"Then?" asked Luna.

"We need to get word to all the members of DA, to get to the room of requirement ASAP because Dumbledore told us that we're going to be attacked by Voldemort and his Deatheaters within the next week," she said in one breath. "Colin, Luna and Sapna, you inform the members of DA. I'll shower and change and then Ron and I will go see Dumbledore." Then she glared at them when they didn't move. "Well get a move on then!" With that Colin, Luna and Sapna ran off.
