Later that night, a figure walked toward a cage of two birds passing it, he stop at a wall that bore a tapestry of unicorn in a corral, a door opened the figure walked in, to be surrounded by junk, that was lost over the years. He walked along the rows until he found what he was looking for, a cabinet covered by a sheet, uncovering it.

He stared at it for awhile.

The Quidditch try-outs were held on a cloudy day, Hermione, Lynx and Alexis, Luna and a few others were watching the try-outs from the stands,

Harry came flying over the stands on his Firebolt, to land beside Ginny. The rest of Gryffindor House was chatting amongst themselves not paying any attention only Ron was, he was pale and nervous.

"Alright...um...This morning, I'm gonna be putting you all through a few drills just to assess your strengths." Harry explains, but no one was listening. "Quiet! Please!"

"Shut it!" Ginny shouted.

The crowd stops talking and faces forward.

Harry glanced back at Ginny, "Thanks. All right. Um...Just because you made the team last year does not guarantee you a spot this year. Is that clear?"

No one said anything.

"Good." Harry states.

Up in the stands, Alexis whispers to Hermione. "McLaggen's looking at you,"

Hermione rolls her eyes.

"He's good," lynx states, watching the practice

"Don't even go there, Lynx," Alexis warns,

"Come on, if Chris can have fun why can't I?" Lynx asks,

"How old is he in your future?" Alexis asks,

"Point taken," Lynx replies, and sighs.

"Come on, Ron!" cheers Alexis, then winces as Ron fell off his broom but manages to hang on.

McLaggen was up again,

"Confundus." Hermione whispered under her breathe.

McLaggen is now looking confused, and kept missing the Quaffle.

Ron was doing much better now that McCormick was confused.

"isn't he brilliant?" Lavender Brown whispers.

Later that night, everyone was in Gryffindor common room, in front of the fire.

"I have to admit, I thought I was gonna miss that last one." Ron states.

"Lucky you have a thick head," Alexis

"I hope Cormac's not taking it too hard." Ron states, "He's got a bit of a thing for you, Hermione. Cormac."

"He's vile." Hermione replies,

Lynx was looking through the Book and gasped. "This isn't good."

"What's wrong?" Alexis asks,

"Nothing, I need to talk to Chris," Lynx replies, before standing up, "I'll see ya later, Chris! Get your ass over to the Warren Dorm!"

Lynx ran out of the room, clutching the Book.

"Should you trust her with the Book?" Hermione asks, "She doesn't even tell you anything about the future, all you know is someone is after your nephew."

"I trust her more then my own life," Alexis answers. 'I have too since she comes from me,'

Ron notices Lavender waving at him.

"Have you ever heard of this spell? Sectumempra?" Harry asks showing the Potions Book to Hermione and Alexis

"No, I haven't." Hermione answers.

"And if you had a shred of self-respect you'd hand that book in." Alexis seconds.

"Not bloody likely. He's top of the class aside from you Lexi." Ron disagrees. "He's even better then you, Hermione, Slughorn thinks he's a genius."

Hermione glares at Ron.

"What?" Ron asks

"I like to know whose that book was. Let's have a look." Hermione states putting down a copy of the Daily Prophet.

"No." Harry states getting up and backing away from Hermione.

"Why not?" Alexis asks "I want to know too."

"The binding is fragile." Harry answers.

The two girls advance on Harry,

"The Binding is fragile?" Hermione repeats.

"Yeah," Harry replies.

Ginny snatches the book away from Harry, and opens it "Who's the Half-Blood Prince?"

"Who?" Alexis and Hermione asks

"That's what it says right here: 'This book is property of the Half-Blood Prince." Ginny answers.

A month had passed and the first snow came early.

"For weeks you carry around that book, practically sleep with it yet you have no desire to find out who he is?" Alexis asks

"I didn't say I wasn't curious, and I don't sleep with it." Harry replies.

"Well, it's true." Ron agrees. "I like a nice chat before I got to bed. But all you do is read that bloody book. It's like being with Hermione and Alexis."

"Well, I was curious, so I went to-" Hermione states

"The library." Ron and Harry interrupts.

"And" Alexis asks,

"And nothing. I couldn't find a reference anywhere to a Half-Blood Prince." Hermione answers

"There we go. That settles it, then." Harry replies

"Fillius!" Slughorn greets.

The four look over to see Slughorn and Flitwick

"I was hoping to find you in the Three Broomsticks!" Slughorn exclaims cheerfully

"No, emergency choir practice, I'm afraid, Horace." Flitwick apologized

"Does anyone fancy a Butterbeer?" Harry asks

Before anyone could answer a swirl of orbs appeared in from of them,

"Chris, what are you doing here?" Alexis asks

"We need your help, Piper's lost her head," Chris answers, "I already got Lynx there."

"Excuse me?" Alexis asks

"From her body," Chris replies
