So, I've decided that the update day will be every Sunday.

And also, I'm gonna ask question about the maraurders and stuff and everyone who was the correct answer gets a shoutout. Question for this chapter is: Who did Pervy talk to before taking a swim in the river Styx? No internet!

I hope you'll like the chapter! (::)(::)(::)

Nico's POV

I felt bad for not going with Severus, but Bianca, Lily and Roxanne already went with him, so I stayed with James, Sirius and Remus. Remus probably felt the same.

'Did you see his face?' Sirius said between laughing. He and James were laying on the ground now, that's how funny they thought it was.

'Hey guys, what are you laughing about?' Peter asked. I looked at Remus. He looked annoyed.

'Nothing.' James said, he had stopped laughing. Then he looked at Sirius, and they started laughing their asses off.

I saw two girls walking up to us, 'Hey, Remus, why are James and Sirius on the ground?' One of them asked. They were probably Gryffindor girls.

'Hey, Marlene, these two are idiots, that's why they're on the ground.'

'Marlene, o god, you should have seen his face.' Sirius said sitting up.

'Who's face?' The other girl asked.

'Severus'.' I replied.

'You mean Snivellus.' James corrected.

'Okay… Where is Lily?' Marlene asked.

'Probably still in the hospital wing.' Remus answered coolly.

'Hospital wing? What did you do to Snape?' The other girl asked James and Sirius.

'They threw a bit of Boil Cure in his face.' I told her.

'What? That's so mean!' She looked angry at James and Sirius.

'Why did you do that?' Marlene asked.

'Yeah, why did you do that?' I repeated.

James and Sirius looked stunned, as if we were the stupid ones, ''Cause it's Snivellus.'

'So?'

'That's reason enough.'

I rolled my eyes and I think Remus did the same, 'That's stupid.'

'Thank you.' James smiled, 'Let's go see if there's anything fun to do here.'

'It's a magic school, there must be something fun to do.' James and Sirius got up from the ground and we started walking back in the castle.

'So, where d'you wanna go?' I asked, I had no contact with my wizard parent, so I knew the least about the castle and all.

'I don' know. You come up with something.' James replied.

'Your parents must have told you about fun places to go.'

'The kitchen.' James and Remus said at the same time.

'And you, any ideas, Sirius?'

'My dad told me the great lake is fun, with the squid in it and all, and my mother, well, you've seen my mother.' It fell silent for a second. Yes, we had all met his mother, sadly, and she did not seem like the woman for long talks with her son. And especially not knowing her son isn't a Slytherin, but a Gryffindor, which is for parents like her pretty bad.

'Have you told your mother yet?' Remus asked.

'No, I haven't, but big chance any of my family-members did.' Sirius looked at the ground.

'The kitchens it is!' I said cheerful, I know how bad it is having not normal parents. I mean, almost everybody here had at least one magical parent, but those were normal to them and, which in my case wasn't so, there for them.

'Actually, something just springs to mind,' James waited a second as to increase the tension, or whatever, 'the Ravenclaw tower!' Sirius looked like he was totally in, but Remus and I had some doubts.

'How will you find it? It's the Ravenclaw common room, you're not just gonna find it behind the corner or whatever.'

'We'll just ask a Ravenclaw or something. Let's just go.' Sirius smiled. Remus and I gave in, and we went on our very first adventure: finding the Ravenclaw common room.

Later, when we had found the Ravenclaw common room, we went to diner. Of course, I had to sit at the Slytherin table as always. Bianca, Severus and Roxanne were already eating.

'Hey, we saved you a seat.' Bianca said as I sat down next to Roxanne. Severus looked a bit mad.

'Hey, I'm sorry I didn't come with you to the hospital wing, Severus.' I apologized

'That's okay. At least you didn't get in trouble.' He answered looked at Roxanne.

'Hey, it wasn't all my fault! You ratted me out!' She replied quickly.

'Wh-what happened?' I asked confused.

'We went to the library and Snape told the library lady I was playing with books.' I looked at Bianca and knew she didn't like that Roxanne said Snape instead of Severus.

'That's not what happened. Here's what happened: Malfoy made a fort of books and Mdm. Pince found out.' Now Severus was saying Roxanne's last name too? This wasn't going great.

'Only 'cause you told her I did it!'

'Otherwise we would all get the blame!'

'Well, all of us did, didn't we? O, wait, except you, of course, because you're such a goody-two-shoes.'

'That's not tr…'

'Stop!' I silenced them, 'It's over, who cares?'

'I care.' Roxanne answered.

'It was a rhetorical question.' I glared at her.

'A what?'

Severus scoffed, 'A question you don't need an answer for.'

'If you don't want an answer then why ask the question?'

'Just… Never mind.' I started eating my chicken.

'I'm going to bed.' Severus said as he stood up, 'Goodnight, Bianca and Nico.' Roxanne looked annoyed. I got it.

I looked over at the Gryffindor table and raised my eyebrow at James, who looked in my way.

'Good night.' Bianca and I said, and he walked off.

'Why is he like this?' Roxanne asked, 'Who taught him to be such a tattletale?'

'That's a rhetorical question.' I laughed.

'No, it isn't, I actually wanna know who.' Roxanne looked dead serious.

'Probably his mother.' Bianca answered.

'Poor woman.' Roxanne shook her head and Bianca and I laughed, 'Anyway, I'm going too.'

'Are you sure?' Bianca asked half standing up.

'Yeah, sit down, my nephew wants to have a talk. Wish me luck.'

'Break a leg.' I said.

'Thanks, I'll try.' Roxanne chuckled and left.

'So, it doesn't seem to be going great with Snape and Malfoy.' I said to Bianca when Roxanne was out of earshot.

'Yeah, you should have seen them after Mdm. Pince sent us out. Screaming at each other the whole time. Lily and I thought we were gonna be deaf.'

'They're like an old married couple, but not married.' Bianca and I laughed.

'So, what did you do with the boys?' Bianca asked.

'We just roamed the castle, went looking for the Ravenclaw common room, that kind of stuff.'

'Did you find it?'

'Of course!' I smiled, 'All the first-year Ravenclaws wouldn't help us, but Sirius persuaded Professor Flitwick to tell us.'

'Why would he do that?' Bianca looked confused, and as I thought of it, it was kind of weird.

'Sirius told him we had a friend in Ravenclaw who needed our help or something.' I shrugged.

'But how did you know where to find Professor Flitwick?' I was just about to answer when she answered herself, 'O wait, Gryffindor already had Charms, I'm sure.'

'Yeah, they did, very helpful. Anyway, I'm done eating, you wanna go?'

'Uhuh, let's.'

We walked back to the Slytherin dorms, 'Why are you so tall?' I asked here looking up. She was about .3 feet taller.

'Why are you so small?' She replied smiling.

'Ha ha ha.' I said sarcastically, 'I am growing.'

'Yeah right.' Bianca laughed. Suddenly, a ghost came out of the wall. This wasn't the first time it happened, but it still shocked me. It shocked me even more when the ghost started talking to us.

'Prince Nico, Princess Bianca, what a pleasure to meet you.' The ghost said, 'I'm Sir Nicholas de Mimsy-Porpington.'

'Hi, nice to meet you.' Bianca said carefully, 'I'm sorry, but what did you call us?'

'Prince and Princess Nico and Bianca di Angelo, of course! Ever ghost has being talking about you. Luckily I'm the first one to talk to you instead of about you.' Sir Nicholas smiled. I looked at Bianca, was this ghost being for real? Were the ghosts really talking about us? Why?

'I wanted to ask for your father's forgiveness.' The ghost said in all seriousness.

'Our father's what?' Bianca spat.

'Forgiveness, of course! I know he doesn't like people turning into ghosts instead of going to his land, but I had no other choice! I had to become a ghost! He must understand that. He does, doesn't he?' Bianca and I looked flabbergasted, what was he talking about? 'He understand, right? I mean, you understand. Please, I beg for your forgiveness.'

'Yeah, sure.' I blurred out.

'Really?' Sir Nicholas looked overjoyed.

'Yeah, we've forgiven you.'

'Thank you. Thank you so much. You have no idea how grateful I am for this.'

'Yeah, fine, whatever.' I dragged Bianca forward.

'Why did you say that?' Bianca asked.

'He was probably just joking around. That prefect told us about Peeves, you remember? Always joking around, and stuff. It was probably him.'

'Yeah, you're right, it probably was.' We were quiet for a minute or three, 'But what if it wasn't?'

'Let's not think about that.'

'But, Nico, what if the ghost are really talking about us? What if they really know our father? What if…'

'Don't say it.' I cut her off.

'What if he isn't dead?' I looked at Bianca with an annoyed look. She knew I didn't like to talk about our father and know she was bringing it up again.

'Even if he isn't dead, he left us. So even if he suddenly showed up again, it wouldn't make a difference to me. He's still a monster and I don't ever wanna meet him and to me, he will always be dead.' I hoped Bianca knew that this was the end of the conversation for me, 'Potions Professor.' I walked into the common room and went straight to my dorm room.

'Nico, please.' I heard Bianca say, but I didn't care.

Inside the first-years dorm room were Severus, Jonathan Avery, Evan Rosier and Benjamin Mulciber. They were talking when I came in. I must've looked awful because they all stared at me.

'What's up?' I asked, sitting on my bed.

'Nothing much. Except, Severus just told us what happened with those Gryffindors.' Oh, no, Avery, Rosier and Mulciber were hard-core Slytherins. They probably wouldn't like it much if I hung out with Gryffindors.

'Why didn't you defend him?' Rosier snapped. I was not up for debate today.

'I already apologized to Severus, what's the big deal?'

'Haven't you learned nothing in our first DADA lesson?' Mulciber called.

'No, have you?'

'I learned that when someone throws a potion in your dormmates face, you punch the guy.'

'You learned that during DADA? Did you have the same lesson?' Mulciber nodded, 'The lesson Professor Whitehart gave us?'

'Don't talk like that, it's annoying.' Avery said. How else should I talk?

'Severus, you're not mad, let's just stop about it.'

'Actually, I am.' Severus said.

'What?'

'Yeah, you didn't choose my side with them and you didn't choose my side with the whole library thing.'

'I just said you had to stop talking about it. That isn't picking someone's side.'

'But when I left, you didn't come with me.'

'Because I hadn't eaten yet.'

'Always making excuses.' Mulciber shook his head.

'You literally just met me yesterday, how can you know I'm always making excuses?'

'Seriously, stop talking like that, smarty-pants.' Avery began again.

'How else should I talk Avery. This is my one way of talking get used to it.'

'Don't call me Avery.'

This was getting ridiculous, 'What else should I call you?'

'You're not allowed to talk to me, dirty half-blood.' The other boys oohed and aahed.

'So now you're judging me because of my parents, that's very mature.'

'We're eleven, we aren't supposed to be mature.'

'Besides, isn't Severus a half-blood, too?'

'Snape would come up for his friends.' Rosier said.

I looked at him and decided to close my bedcurtains and just go to sleep. But when I did, they just continued talking about me, as if I wasn't there.

I slept really bad that night. I was to worried about what that ghost was talking about, to fall asleep. But when I finally did, I had a nightmare. I hadn't had a nightmare in years. When I was seven I just to have them almost every night, always the same. Then suddenly, they stopped. It felt wonderful, but now they were back.

The dream was just like I remembered it, a pale, skinny guy with black hair sitting in a throne, with flying beasts behind him. But there was one thing different, the lady next to the man wasn't there. Her throne, which was growing flowers instead of made of bones, was still there, but she wasn't. It made me sad, 'cause she was always the only colourful thing in these dreams.

As, always I was standing behind a statue of one of the flying beasts. This one probably dead in a horrific way to get a statue. Wait, could these beasts die? I didn't even now.

Another different thing was that the people, or, more accurately, the man in the throne and the flying beast, talked. The man in the throne called one of his flying beasts closer, 'Alecto,' I could swear I remembered that name from somewhere, but I just couldn't put my finger on it, 'how did it go with the kids?'

'It went fine.' Alecto's voice was low and creepy, even more creepy than that of the man in the throne, 'I dropped them of at the Leaky Cauldron, some kind of bar. Dumble…' I knew Alecto was saying something, but it was as if a huge drill started boring right next to my ear, so I couldn't hear.

'Are you sure the children are safe?' The man in the throne asked.

'Couldn't be safer. Trust me, or actually trust…' But Alecto didn't get to finish his sentence.

'Shut up, there is someone here, I can feel it.'

'What do you mean, your majesty?'

'Someone who isn't supposed to be here.' The man in the throne started looking around.

'Where? I don't see anyone.'

'They aren't really here, their presence is.' Wait, was he talking about me? He couldn't be, this was just a dream, right? Even though I knew he couldn't be talking about me, I backed up.

'Do you think it's a demigod?'

The man in the throne locked eyes with me. For a moment, he looked sad, then his tough look came back, 'Yeah, yeah it is.' He stood up, walked towards me and swapped his hand right through me, stopping my dream.

I woke up with a start, this was, by far, the weirdest dream I ever had.

Wooooow, a half-blood dream, o my gods!

Anyway, thank for all the support, it really helps me want to write.

See you next week,
