I can't wait,' Julia says 'I do still wish fathers work hadn't made us come here, though its fun sneaking around to see you.
Draco nods 'that it is, and don't worry about our fathers, you just worry about what you have to worry about'. He says slipping off his rock and crossing the path to give her a hug.
Harry turns away at this point, kind of embarrassed he had stayed for that long, though I just he did learn something about Julia. The Cardinals did now the Malfoy's, since at least the kids were born. Though this did bring up the questions, was there father a Death eater like Louis us? And here is Julia again wanting to be a Slithering? What is that about? He walks back to the castle with this thoughts running through his head. He planed to have another talk with Ron and Hermione.
Chapter 11: The 16th Century Gallatin
Harry found Ron and Hermione and Emma in the Library surrounded by books. Ron looked as if he had gotten little sleep last night and was fighting to concentrate on his book.
'Guess what!' Harry announced.
'We can go to sleep?' Ron asked with a wide yaw.
'Honestly Ron maybe you'll learn to go to sleep right away.' Hermione replied.
Emma smiled and giggled. 'I saw Julia and Draco together. I didn't know you knew the Malfoy's.'
'What?' Ron asked, now seemingly wide awake.
'Well, you never asked. And yeah we do know them. We grew up together most of our lives. They are pretty nice people.' Emma replied looking over her book.
'Hunh?' Ron and Harry asked, flabbergasted.
'Close your mouths you two.' Hermione snapped. 'You'll catch fly's.' 'Hey Ron, Hermione, can I talk to you alone for a minute. Sorry Emma. It's very personal and important. You understand right?" Harry asked apologetically.
'Yeah, go on' she waved.
'Julia was saying that their father was in business with Snape. Do you think their father is a deatheater?'
'Don't know but we can try and find out. And we should go and talk to Snuffles. He would probably know. He's been apart of the order for a long time now.' Hermione replied and they went back to their seats.
'I swear that my dreams come true. Last night I dreamt that we were here and I found this really old book called 'The 16th century Gallatin'. We even found really good info and what is happening to us. Harry and his voices, my dreams…'
'And how I am really good at all sorts of defense moves like disks.' Hermione finished for him.
'Hmmm… maybe we should look for this book. His other dream about Harry did come true. It's worth a shot at least.' Emma replied.
'Okay, let's all split up and search.' Harry suggested.
But after a half an hour and only being through one fourth of the library it was time to break.
'Maybe we shout keep track of what we search and continue tomorrow. Ron, Harry and I have to talk to Dumbledore now anyway. So we can see you in the common room. Okay?'
'Yeah, good luck with what ever it is you have to talk about. And don't forget we have Occlumency tonight after dinner Harry, it's Saturday.' Emma replied as she left.
'What do we need Dumbledore for?' Ron asked.
'We don't, we need Sirius Ronald. Now come on and let's go.'
After a wile of walking to the third floor and coaxing Hogwarts stairs to let them they knocked on Sirius' door. Nothing was impossible for Hermione Granger when she wants something but then again, even when she doesn't want something that bad she still manages to get it.
"Oh, Harry, Ron, Hermione. How did you know I was here? Never mind, I know how." He replied looking at Hermione pointedly, but she chose to ignore it.
They walked in and found that they were in the sitting room, it had a black carpeted floor and red sofas by a stunning fire. On the wall by the door were rows upon rows of books. Sitting down Hermione decided to start with her most puzzling question.
"Sirius does Professor Snape have a brother that is a death eater?"
"Why do you ask?"
"Well, Julia was speaking to Draco, and she said their fathers were in the same "Business" And since Lucious Malfoy is a known death eater her father is one too. And I had a vision saying that a kid of Snape's was going to do something for him. And I think that it is Julia Cardigan." Harry replied.
"Yes Severus has a brother, his name is Septimus Snape. If he has kids or not, I don't know. All I know is that I saw him around in school when I was your age. I haven't kept tabs with him since then." Sirius replied and conjured some tea for them all.
"Thanks Sirius but we have to go back to the library now. Bye." Hermione replied.
"I'll be there soon, I have to talk to Sirius alone for a minute."
"Okay Harry. See ya soon mate." Ron replied and walked stalked away reluctantly to the library with Hermione for the rest of the day till Supper.
"Harry, what is the matter?" Sirius asked as he saw Harry clamp his hands over his head and ears.
The voices came back, but he suspected they never really left. They went blaring in his head, every thought of every person in Hogwarts was chattering away.
He saw Sirius ask him something but he couldn't hear him, he was too busy trying to clear his thought. He concentrated on Sirius and what his voice was like. And soon the voices were pushed to the back of his mind.
"Sirius, I've been hearing people's thought's, Ron has been having dreams about what happens in the future. What he dreams always comes true. And Hermione, well, lets say be careful for flying books and objects when you push her over the edge. Can you help us?"
"Hmmm…there is this legend, along time ago in the 16th century there were these three very powerful wizards. Two were male and one was female. One could see the future in order to aids his fellow fighters against evil of the time.
One could fight extraordinarily; she was very smart and extremely gifted when it came to all the possible forms of fighting. Now their friend, the leader, her was the most powerful of all. He could hear the thought of others on his every whim. And like his female friend was also gifted in the forms of fighting. I'm sorry but that is all I know, that is what your situation reminds me of.
Go to the headmaster and talk to him, he can probably tell you more." Sirius replies and Harry heads back to his friends.
Reluctantly he headed back up to the library and told his friends about what Sirius had told him.
"He's right Harry; we have to go to Professor Dumbledore. He can help us." Hermione insisted.
"Just wait a bit okay? Let's check out that book Ron dreamt about before we do. Okay?" Harry asked.
"Yeah, but. Ahh Harry we'll have to do it tomorrow, its dinner time now and then you have Occlumency." Ron replied
After dinner Emma and Harry walked together to the Room of requirement. After thinking of what they needed, he tickled the pair and it opened.
The room was calm and quiet. The rug was soft and plush under their feet as the walked. The lights were dim and the soft sound of the ocean and seagulls played in the room. A fake window showed out to an ocean with waves rippling in it.
"Okay Harry, let's get ready. Okay I want you to imagine a place that calms you down; by the room I'd say the ocean. I want you to concentrate on it on what you hear. When you close your eyes imagine your at the ocean. Think nothing but the ocean. Okay?"
"Okay…' Harry closed his eyes and concentrated on the ocean. The feel of the sand beneath his toes. The wind in his hair, the ocean roaring in his ears. 'Ready." Harry replied calmly.
But soon it faded to his cupboard under the stairs; he was watching his Uncle board up the mail box.
Harry was with Hermione and Ron and face to face with a three headed dog.
Harry was surrounded by an ocean again, the sound of it soothed him, but it kept flickering back to his memories and then back to the ocean.
Harry was with Ron and playing exploding snap when Mrs. Black went off on a rant about her son and mudbloods in her house.
He couldn't let her know about Grimauld place and concentrated on the ocean. Soon the attack stopped.
"Very good Harry. Not bad. Keep doing that before bed and eventually you'll get it. You kept going back and forth from clearing your mind to your memories. With time and practice you'll be able to hold the ocean.' They headed to put their shoes back on and as the went back up Emma looked at Harry then to the hall ahead of her. 'Harry, I know it's not my place but why were you in a cupboard?"
"I was kept there till I got my letter. Then they moved me in my cousin's second bedroom. Most likely so they wouldn't find me to give me another letter, but it didn't work. I got thousands of letters, the whole house filled with them. It was brilliant." Harry replied with a smile.
Emma laughed and they went their separate way to their dorms. It was late, but Julia was still up.
"Julia, you're still up!" It wasn't a question.
"Yeah, so did you satisfy your curiosity? What did you find out?"
