Well I don't suppose you can call the last chapter a cliffhanger. In fact I just randomly decided to stop writing, that and I needed some way to introduce Auralia properly.

If I owned Harry Potter and all the little munchkins would I really be letting you all read this for free, c'mon I'm not NICE!

"IT'S NOT WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE!"

Four frantic voices cried. Auralia (who had been previously frozen in shock) had her wand out with lightning speed and was currently pointing it at the three boys on the couch.

"You have exactly 4 seconds to explain, because at the moment I'm assuming that you three are all doing unspeakable and disturbing things to Dominicks cousin!"

Harry, blinking owlishly from the couch had never seen Tom speak faster then he was currently doing. Judging from the admiring looks he was getting from Adrian and Favian nether had they.

"He pants were to big?"

"Yes!" nodded Adrian fervently.

"So you three were helping him?"

"Precisely!" agreed Favian enthusiastically.

Auralia walked over to the couch, came around to in front of Harry and (pushing Tom aside) kneeled down in front of him.

"Hey sweetheart, were these boys doing anything you didn't want them to?" she asked in honeyed tones, remarkably different from the ones she had been using on the boys a few seconds ago.

Harry shook his head violently.

"So I don't need to hex them into next month and then go and tell Dominick?"

Harry head shaking increased.

She shot one last suspicious look at the Tom, Favian and Adrian, leaned forward and hugged Harry and departed. A joint sigh of relief escaped Harry's companions.

"Why are you scared of her?"

Tom scratched his head nervously over the loud denials of his friends.

"She knows like the whole library on hexes. And Dominick can be scary. I don't want to even think about what he would of done if she had told him we'd been doing…that kind of stuff to you!"

Harry grinned, he understood where they were coming from. Hermione could be pretty scary sometimes.

Hastily diverging himself of the troublesome pants he settled done in the couch.

"So…what were you so angry 'bout before?" he asked, unsure whether or not he was being to bold.

"Huh, oh. It's nothing. There's an ancient legend that Salazar Slytherin created a hidden chamber before he left Hogwarts. I 've been looking for it."

Harry would later swear his heart stopped beating at that moment. He looked up at the teen standing in front of him and remembered that this was the future Lord Voldemort. The man who would murder his parents, get Hagrid expelled and cause so much pain and suffering.

Wait, no. He wasn't, not yet. Right now he was Tom, who liked Gryffindors and had held him during his nightmares. What if…

What if he changed Tom. What if he changed Time!

Or at least implanted a memory of Harry into Tom's mind, a memory of Harry that he liked. So when he went back he could remind Tom. At the very least it would buy him a few seconds.

"Harry…"

'Baby…."

"Sweetheart…"

Harry blinked and broke out of his thinking.

"You like completely spaced out there for a moment." Adrian said, looking down questioningly at the small boy.

Harry gave a small smile, and then looked up into Tom's eyes.

"The Chamber of Secrets, home of a fearsome monster that will obey only parsletongues."

It wasn't the first time Tom had been shocked by Harry, nor would it be the last.

Tom sank into the armchair near the fire. Adrian and Favian looked at Harry in surprise, the name wasn't secret, but not many people knew about the guardian.

Tom picked up the book on Salazer and waved it in Harry's direction.

"Have you read this?"

Harry smirked and shook his head, shivering slightly he slid off the couch and moved closer to the fire. Sitting on the rug in front of it he turned to face them.

"I've been there."

Hehe, love leaving you guys on edge! Now I'll probably forget about this story for another 4 months or so…

But review anyway, just in case I don't. After all I did give you two chapters in one night!
