Chapter 11

The hall was silent as Aeneas walked back to his seat next to Snape and began to write down on the lesson plans. The noise began to return in large momentums mostly from the Gryffindor who as Aeneas found they would speak before thinking.

"YOU'RE GOING TO LET HIM STAY HERE IN HOGWARTS?"

"HE'S A DANGER TO US ALL!"

"HE DEFEATED THE DARK LORD WHAT'S TO STOP HIM FROM KILLING US TOO?"

Aeneas flinched when he felt his familiars growing hot against his body in anger at their master being disrespected.

Ron Weasley stood up and yelled at Aeneas. "I WILL NOT STAY HERE WHILE THAT THING IS HERE!"

Suddenly Aeneas stood to his feet. "You would do well to be silent and sit down weasley. I tolerated you while I was a guest in your house these last few days. But we are now here at Hogwarts. My patients run thin and my familiars are screaming to take a bite of you. But I told them I could not let you be their meal."

Everyone watched as Ron shut his mouth and sat down.

"Weasley what familiars does he have?"

A Gryffindor next to him asked.

Ron was fuming. "He's got five; two panthers, a dragon, a phoenix and a snake."

Everyone turned to look at Aeneas who smirked as he sat back down and continued to eat while he ran a hand over his neck where a tattoo of a green snake could be seen.

"I don't see any familiars but I see a snake tattoo."

"That's how he keeps them with him. He has them as tattoos but they can move around on his body and when they think he's in trouble they will come out."

Everyone looked at Aeneas as he continued to stroke his neck. Draco Malfoy stood up. "Aeneas is it true you have 5 familiars and they are tattoos on your body that move?"

Aeneas smirked as he stood up and held up his left arm and everyone watched as the green snake on his neck slithered from his neck to his arm and grew in mass till it was wrapped around his neck and arm.

"This is Demetria; she will only listen to me as I am her master."

Suddenly everyone gasped as a phoenix and a dragon appeared to be flying over his head. Aeneas smirked as he looked up at them. "The phoenix is Ethon and the Dragon…." Aeneas looked up just as Aeolus sneezed and dropped out of the air into Aeneas's arms.

"Is Aeolus, he is still recovering from a cold."

That's when he smirked as he looked down at the panthers.

"And these are Itzal and Aysu, now they will always be on my person at all times. And if they are in the halls if you harm them I will not be nice at all. They are my familiars and as such I will endure Azkaban if anyone harms them. Although between you and me I can break out of there in less than an hour."

Severus cleared his throat and Aeneas nodded and everyone watched as his familiars returned to tattoo form. All say for Aeolus who climbed inside of Aeneas's robes and poked his head out to keep an eye on everyone and to every so often steal food from Aeneas's plate. Sitting down once more Aeneas returned to the lesson plan.

20 minutes later Dumbledore stood up "Alright children off to bed lessons start tomorrow and you all need your rest. Prefects if you would show your first years to their new tower and home, I leave you all with these words: thgin doog!"

Aeneas smirked at the weird looks everyone was giving Dumbledore.

Really all he said was Good night backwards, are they really that dumb?

He thought as he stood up and tucked the lesson plans for the next day under his arm.

Severus looked at his new apprentice. "Do you need help finding the Slytherin common room?" "Actually my things are with me and no I will not need help. Hogwarts will guide me. Good night sir, I shall see you tomorrow at breakfast."

Severus nodded his head and watched the young lord of magic leave the hall.

Once outside of the hall Aeneas found his walk way blocked by several Gryffindors all lead by Ron Weasley. "We don't want you here dark wizard. Go back to where ever it is the hell you came from and stay there."

Aeneas smirked "What makes you say I'm a dark wizard Mr. Weasley? Have I tortured someone for pleasure? Have I killed mindlessly for fun? Do I have a dark aurora around me?"

"No. but you're in slytherin and you destroyed the dark lord..."

Aeneas nodded his head "ah I see, because of my defeating the dark lord when I was a baby, and because I have higher status than you and more wealth and power you label me as dark because your pride is hurt."

The other Gryffindors were silent as Ron's face turned red and he went to yell at Aeneas who raised his hand and cut off Ron's voice with a wand less silence charm.

"Now before you interrupt me, let me make myself clear. I am and will not be a dark lord. I will not stop using the magic I have used in the past as it is part of me, and further more I would appreciate it if you refrained from telling lies to discredit me before you have given me the chance to explain who I am."

Aeneas sighed when he saw the clock behind the group before him.

"Now then, I will release you from the silence charm, at that time you will be given 2 minutes to speak, then you must head to your tower for it is almost past curfew and we all have classes tomorrow and I have three classes to teach tomorrow."

With a wave of his hand the silence spell left Ron Weasley who then screamed at him as he charged "HOW DARE YOU DO THAT TO ME I'LL KILL YOU!"

Aeneas sighed and raised his hand and right as Ron went to hit him froze in mid swing. Aeneas turned to the Gryffindor. "Please let Madame McGonagall know that Mr. Weasley is frozen and she can come get me for the memories of this event. Now then you all should be in Gryffindor tower before points are taken. Good night." And with that Aeneas turned and disappeared into the depths of the castle and the school went to sleep to begin the new tomorrow.
