Last Time: Before anyone could say anything flames roared and McGonagall burst in. She straight ahead went to Harry and said "Harry, situation is going out of control. Five students have been taken into the chamber. Please come to Hogwarts at once."

As everyone heard this they gasped. Harry asked "who are they?"

McGonagall said "Your siblings, Longbottom children and Ginny Weasely."

Harry's face was expressionless. He said …

Harry's face was expressionless. He said "With all due respect professor, headmaster Dumbledore told me to leave the matter to his experts. So I believe that's what I will be doing. I will leave the matter in his expert hands as he previously rejected my help."

Everyone was left gob smacked and everyone who had children at school were horrified that the only person who could help them stop the monster was rejecting and were burning with anger on said Headmaster.

Lady Greengrass lost her temper and shouted at Dumbledore "You dumb old idiot, what the hell you have been thinking? Where are the experts you mentioned to this young man? Why did you reject his help in the first place? My daughter has mentioned his skills and even half of what she said was true then he would have found the culprit by now. If anything happens to my baby I will strangle you with that beard of yours."

At this Lady Zabini added angrily "That will happen if he gets out of my grip first."

Minister Fudge seeing that the situation is going out of control said "No need for such harsh words, I am sure Mr. Potter will oblige my request in helping solve this problem."

Harry looked like the man has grown two heads and said "I will not minister. Go solve the problem you and Dumbledore have created in the first place." Then turning to McGonagall he added "Professor it would be best if the students were immediately sent home. We can bring them back once this mess clears."

McGonagall looked pale and replied "I am afraid it is not that easy. Even with the floo network we can't floo those many students from Hogwarts. Moreover Muggle born children will be in problem. You got to help. Please."

Harry decided he would help but it doesn't mean he would do it for free. Amelia Bones spoke up saying "let's take this to Hogwarts. Harry you need medical attention and I will send auror's to get healers to Hogwarts."

At this Dumbledore perked up. He knew if Amelia requested him, Harry wouldn't say no. His position was safe. Minister asked to accompany to which no one spoke up. Harry was thinking what to ask as compensation.

As they flooed to headmaster's office Harry saw Weasely's and finding Arthur pale made him feel bad. Though they never spoke Harry knew he was a good man at heart and loved everyone in his family equally. He made sure the matriarch didn't sign any marriage contracts for their children and respected their wishes. Harry never understood how Ron Weasely grew up like that. His elder brothers were pranksters but had minimum commonsense.

On seeing them Ron shouted pointing Harry "What is that brat doing here?" He should be in Azkaban and given the Dementor's kiss.

Amelia spoke up before anyone could interrupt and make an argument "That is very unwise to say to the person who might be the only one able to save your sister Mr. Weasely."

At this Mrs. Weasely spoke up "Sure you don't mean that. He is a kid and we have auror's and Dumbledore. How can he be the one to save them?"

Dumbledore spoke up "Ah, I am afraid it is true Molly. Harry is the only Parsel mouth and only one present who might be able to locate the entrance."

Harry said "You decide to ask now Dumbledore? Ah, I believe it is too late."

Everyone looked at Amelia to contradict but she knew Harry was playing and would do anything to save his friends who would be in grave danger. So she kept quiet. At this Alice Longbottom spoke up "Surely Harry, you will need to save them. They are your family. They are your siblings."

Harry spoke amusement clear in his voice "Don't act like you are worried about Dan and Rose. You are worried about that little prick of a daughter who made her mission to make my life hell at manor and school and your son who is a wimp. And remember they disowned me. I am no longer family. Dan and Rose are not my siblings any more."

At this Frank turned red but kept his temper. Dumbledore spoke up "Harry, my boy Lives are at stake. Please act fast."

Lilly chided "You are family Harry. We love you as much as Dan and Rose. Save them Harry please."

Harry snorted and said "If you truly loved me it was for a few weeks after I was born, it was before that Halloween. If you loved me you wouldn't have neglected me. You wouldn't have left me to fend for my self. You wouldn't have let your children hex me and watched as if nothing happened and you wouldn't have left me to fight ruthless killers in middle of Diagon Ally all by myself."

Dumbledore sighed said "Be that as it may Harry, I apologize for my mistake and request to solve this problem"

Harry laughed before saying "I already told you headmaster you brought this on yourself. I won't help. Madam Bones I believe healers are on the way."

Amelia smiled and said "They will be here any minute."

Frank spoke up "If you are so ungrateful that you won't save your siblings then why should they allow you to stay at their house?"

Harry coldly said "So if requesting me wont work you will get so low and blackmail me? Huh. Well listen well Mr. Longbottom, I will not come back to potter manor and I have my own house. So you can save your own son and daughter,"

At this professor McGonagall spoke up "Harry if the monster gets out will you help us stop it?"

Harry smiled and said "Sure professor. I won't risk lives of innocents."

Arthur finally spoke up "Harry, I never spoke to you before but as far as I know my daughter is caught in this. I beg you to help her."

Harry looked like he was thinking and said "Fine. I will help."

Dumbledore spoke up and said "That's it my boy. I will arrange what ever you need."

Harry looked cold and said "I will want something in return from everyone and you Dumbledore will keep your mouth shut till we are out of this."

Everyone was shocked at the coldness of voice but they were happy that he would help. Harry, turning to James said "From you I want the invisibility cloak which must rightfully belong to me. It is passed on to eldest son and I get it, heir or no heir. I will also want one million galleons which I will be donating for orphanages started by heirs of founders for children who lost parents."

James said "You can take all the money you want but the cloak belongs to Dan. You can't have it."

Harry smiled and said "It is not a choice if you want see him again. Even if you don't give it now I as the heir will take its possession once I turn seventeen. It's for you to decide."

Then he turned towards Longbottom's and said "You will give me one million galleons and access to any heirlooms and books in ancestral vault of house Longbottom."

Alice knew better than to argue and said "fine."

He then turned to Weasely's and said "I want an oath from you and your children that none of your children will harm me or my friends intentionally unless provoked."

Arthur said "Sure young man."

Finally Harry turned to Dumbledore and said "You will no longer interfere in my life except for school and will in no way try to influence my familial status"

Dumbledore didn't like where this was going but had no choice so he asked "anything else?"

Harry thought for a moment and said "Now that you mention it, I want full pardon for Hagrid and you will get him a new wand and help him take his owls."

Dumbledore said "He was expelled. He was having a dangerous creature in school."

Harry coolly said "Was that the reason for expulsion?"

When Dumbledore was about to argue Harry said "You are chief warlock and headmaster of this institute. So get it done."

As everyone nodded Harry said "I want a magical oath."

Dumbledore said "Surely Harry, no need….." but the look he got from the boy stopped him in mid sentence. He knew better than to piss off this young man. So he said "I Albus Dumbledore swear on my magic and life that I will in no way try to interfere in Harry James Potters life and will in no way try to influence his familial status using my power. I will try to best of my powers that Rubeus Hagrid will get full pardon and complete his magical education. So mote it be."

Once others followed and completed their oaths Harry said "Now no one will interfere in my work and no one will question me. Also whatever is inside the chamber belongs to me by right of conquest."

Everyone nodded and Ron said "I know what Slytherin's monster is. It is a…."

Harry cut him off by saying "Basilisk and I believe I know where entrance is even before I was sent to Azkaban. I would like Professor Flitwick and Professor McGonagall to accompany me."

Ron asked "If you knew why you didn't tell?"

Ask you're esteemed Headmaster if he ever listened to me?

At this James cut in "We will come too. Who knows you may knowingly let Dan or Rose die."

Harry controlled his temper and said "You fucking interrupt me once again you can go and save sorry ass of your son all by yourself." At this James shut up.

Harry turned to Flitwick and said "Professor please get Patil's and come to bathroom on second floor."

At this Dumbledore jumped in saying "Surely no need to get other children involved. I will come along if you want."

Harry said "were you deaf when I said no one will interfere or do you have a problem in following instructions. Look I am already tired and if you keep this up I won't be responsible for consequences."

Harry walked away with professor McGonagall towards second floor. McGonagall when found that they were out of ear shot said "You enjoyed too much of that Harry."

Harry smiled and said "I have to make most of it when I had the chance professor."

Once they approached the sink in the bathroom Harry said in parseltongue *"Open"*

The sink moved out wards and then away leaving a large opening in the center of the floor. Harry saw it was Dirty and cast "lumos maximus." But the tube was very deep and Harry knew it would take several minutes if they walked down by using stairs. As he was musing what to do Flitwick came there along with Patil's to whom Harry quickly explained the situation. He then turned to Lilly and said "make sure no one uses washrooms for next couple of hours."

He then turned to Patil's and said "I and Praveen will go in first. Once we deem it is clear I will send messenger. Then come in and being along Professor McGonagall and Flitwick. No one else is to follow."

Harry and Praveen then jumped and were sliding in the pipe. After few turns harry saw it end and nodded to Praveen who cast "Arresto Momentum" as they left the pipe. Harry immediately cast "spongify" and made the floor smooth. Once they landed Harry and Praveen stood with Backs to each other checking for any threat. Once they knew it was clear Harry sent a messenger spell and in a minute they were joined by others.

Harry gave everyone goggles which he made while at home during Christmas.

"These will protect you from basilisk's gaze."

Everyone put on the goggles and walked forwards in the tunnel and found a huge skin. McGonagall gasped. Harry nodded to Patil's and turned towards the professors.

"Professor there is a specific reason I asked only you two to come. You see my familiar, is not just any snake. It is a NAGA."

At this Flitwick squealed and said "You are truly a wonder Harry. If what you say is true we will have no problem with Basilisk."

Harry nodded and said "This must remain between us."

They nodded and continued. McGonagall felt immense gratitude that this boy trusted her with his secrets. She decided she will from now on follow him to end of the world. He was a true leader. Flitwick was having same thoughts and Harry smiled knowing this.

As they approached a circular door Harry felt magical presence behind it and knew they were there. He turned to professors and said "I will make you invisible and will go alone. It will give us element of surprise if required. I can communicate telepathically with Parvati. Follow her instructions."

Though McGonagall was initially hesitant she remembered the fact the kid in front of her dueled thirty members at same time and came out unscathed. So she agreed and Harry completely made them invisible. He then did the spell which made them visible to one another. McGonagall was shocked as even she couldn't get the smell of others when this spell was performed. She decided to talk to her favorite student once this mess is over.

Harry hissed in parseltongue *open* and the snake moved opening the door. Harry went in and saw the chosen ones and Ginny Weasely lying on ground. He immediately turned where he felt magical presence and saw Tom Riddle. Harry knew he was Voldemort and started thinking how this was possible.

His eyes landed on dairy near Weasely girl and Harry with his mage sight saw a tendril of magic connecting Ginny to Riddle through diary. He knew life was being siphoned from Ginny to Tom and she won't last long if he didn't act fast. He quickly bellowed "Stupify continueme" and rained Riddle with stunners. What Harry saw horrified him. Riddle was a spirit and Harry's spells passed right through him while riddle was able to hold the wand and defend. As Harry stopped his spell work Riddle started casting at a same rate as Harry.

Riddle bellowed "stupefy, sureico, diffindo, sectumsempra, impedementa,"

Harry put up a strong Elvin shield silently thinking "tinechor." All the spells bounced of Harry's shield and Riddle stopped. He said "Ah, you have talent and power. Join me and we can rule the world."

Harry smirked and said "I don't think so Tom. I am here to stop you."

Voldemort said angrily "You fool; you think you can stop Lord Voldemort?"

Harry smiled and said "If I caught your future self why can't I stop you?" Here he started speaking in parseltongue *"You are nothing but a piece of his soul. A HORCRUX."*

As Harry said this Voldemort paled but said then lets match power of great Slaazar Slytherin and Voldemort against you."

Tom said in parseltongue *"Speak to me Salazar, Noblest of Hogwarts four."* Harry watched as the mouth of the statue of Slytherin opened to reveal a Huge basilisk curling outwards.

Harry immediately released Astika and said in parseltongue *"Astika keep the basilisk busy. Don't let her near children and what so ever don't kill her unless it's a threat to you."*

Astika replied "No problem master" and morphed into an eighty foot snake. Now having an advantage of twenty feet he got ready to engage the basilisk. He swiftly crawled towards the basilisk and caught the smaller snakes head in its jaws tightly. As the large serpentine's fought withering around and destroying the statues of snakes Harry studied his enemy who was in shock seeing his basilisk being taken down. Harry knew this was the time and created the illusion of the diary and him and took original diary and went behind one of the statues. He told his friends to distract Tom and soon Riddle was facing both professors and Patil's. He then swiftly pulled out his femur wand and transfigured its tip to be sharp and pierced the Diary earning a scream from Tom who was busy fighting his illusion. Harry thanked Jason Grey for his skills in illusions and punctured the diary over and over again destroying it and the spirit of Tom riddle. He then told Astika to release Medusa, Salazar's pet basilisk. As Astika released her and returned to his normal form Meddy started attacking everyone in the chamber. Harry did only thing he thought was now a way to stop her without hurting her. He pointed his wand towards Basilisk and cast "Legilemens"

As Harry entered the beasts mind he felt what can be called as strongest occlumency shields. As Harry tried to control her Meddy trashed and fought back. Harry was feeling the strain on his defenses as the basilisk was pushing him out with brute force he never knew. Harry battled on trying to pierce her defenses. They were in a mind lock when Padma and Parvati joined him in his efforts through their telepathic link. Harry and girls were trying their level best but the defenses were very strong and even their combined effort was being difficult to push her out. Harry pulled back a little and pushed his mind with such a force that the basilisk might have stumbled had it has legs. Emma perched on Harry's shoulder and was trilling in his year her support.

After what seemed like an eternity but were few minutes in reality Harry finally entered the beasts mind and started reorganizing it. He saw that she was continuously tortured by Voldemort when he was in school to point of insanity where she wanted revenge on him and killed anyone whom she may find on commanding. Once setting her mind and coming out Harry said to her in parseltongue *I am true heir of Salazar Slytherin. You were placed here for schools protection and will remain here to fulfill his wishes if you want to. Or else I can free you and you may leave.*

Meddy replied "Thank you young one. I will serve you as I served Salazar and protect the school. This has been my home and I would protect it with my life."

Harry replied *Fine then. I will visit some time later. Take care.*

Parvati flung her arms around his neck and kissed him deeply. Harry was shocked but as she broke Padma took her place. Harry's eyes went as wide as saucers.

He turned to McGonagall and Flitwick who had their lower jaws dropped to ground and expressed what has happened. They were very happy that such a beast was left to guard the school and smiled at both the girls and Harry and all three were blushing bright shade of red. She then became angry at what Headmaster has done in spreading lies about Salazar Slytherin.

Harry told her to be calm and don't raise it in front of him. They went back after enervating the chosen brats and Ginny who started crying.

She said "It was tom. He forced me to write on walls and I just obeyed him. I some times woke up with blood on by clothes and didn't know what to do. I had no friends and he was my only friend."

McGonagall hugged her and said "Don't worry dear; many greater ones have fallen prey to his manipulations. Don't worry."

As they reached the tunnel Harry said *stairs* and started climbing. Once they were out Harry saw that everyone who were present in Dumbledore's office were now in bathroom and Harry quickly whispered *close* and the entrance closed.

Lilly started hugging Dan and Rose and Alice did the same with Glory and Neville. Dumbledore said "Let us go to hospital wing" but before they could move Amelia Bones said "I believe order's of Merlin, first class are in order."

Dumbledore quickly said "Of course, what Dan and his friends did was very courageous. I think some…"

Dumbledore was cut off as Amelia bellowed "Albus Dumbledore, how dumb can you get? The awards are for Harry and Patil's. Not for your chosen ones."

Dumbledore knew he crossed a line and said "Ah, of course" but McGonagall said "I award two hundred points each to Ravenclaw for such bravery and extraordinary fete."

Dumbledore sighed knowing that this year house cup will also be won by Ravenclaw. As they walked silently he pulled aside Potters and said "Ask Harry to come back to family. Tell him its time to adopt him back. Then we can control his actions and transfer his magic."

Lilly and James nodded and walked towards hospital wing along with others. Soon Madam Pomfrey and other healers from St. Mungos were treating children. Harry was lying on bed as Poppy said he will require a final check before leaving.

James and Lilly came and sat beside him. Harry knowing what they came for decided to play along and said coldly "What?"

James spoke up "son, its time you come back to us. We will blood adopt you."

Harry laughed loudly and everyone in the hospital turned towards them. He said "What makes you think I will come back. I am perfectly happy like this. So you may go. Thanks for the offer."

Lilly said "But Harry, we are your parents. We love you. Come back."

Harry coldly replied "You were never my parents. You never loved me. You love Dan and Rose. You want me back for money, fame and to transfer my magic to them. So no thanks."

Lilly replied "But you promised to give your magic to them. Now will you back down from your word?"

Harry laughed and said "Yes, I said I will give them my magic but I never said when. And I never promised to come back. If you didn't realize I never called you mother or mum and James father or dad. I am perfectly happy with whom I have as family. Now GET LOST."

Dumbledore intervened and said "but Harry my boy, you must give your magic to your siblings. It's for greater good."

What Harry said shocked everyone. He coldly said "Go fuck off Dumbledore. Don't give me this greater good shit of yours." He then turned to Potter's and said in same cold voice "I told you to fuck off"

Lilly said "Language Harry"

Harry retorted "and who are you bitch?"

James potter got to slap Harry but Harry held his hand and used his magic to make his grip so hard that he broke James wrist. James was howling in pain when Harry said "You never learn do you Jamie?"

Dumbledore said "Harry I insist you release James immediately. He is Lord Potter and you will face charges for insulting Lady and Lord of ancient house of potters."

Harry laughed loud again and said "Push all the charges you want. I will push mine of trying to harm minor physically and slipping various potions in my foods for over a year."

At this Dumbledore paled and said "You don't have evidence."

Harry smiled and said "You think so?"

Dumbledore and potters were left aghast. If those charges came up they will be doomed. So they left him to cool down and talk later.

Two days later Harry went to Dumbledore's office and knocked the door. Dumbledore called out "come in"

As Harry stepped in he saw Potter's and Longbottom's. He knew what they were up to and sat down. Dumbledore started "Harry, my boy you will need to go back to potters. Your family terribly misses you and loves you."

Harry scoffed and said "I think that discussion is over. I came here to take what is offered to me and leave."

Frank pulled out a bag and said "Here, thanks for saving my children. Sorry for all the troubles we caused you."

Harry felt the apology was sincere so he took the bag and replied "I can't accept your apology as it will mean we will have no enmity. There are still a lot of things your children have to answer for."

Frank Longbottom knew it and sighed. Harry then turned to Potters. James gave him a bag similar to previous one and then offered the cloak. Harry took and smiled as now he had all the three artifacts required for his ritual.

Harry then said "I want a meeting with you Dumbledore. I will come alone. I have something very important to discuss."

Dumbledore didn't know what but felt that may be he can control Harry now if he shared some of his secrets. Hermione was doing as much as she can but Harry was too smart for her or he thought. So he replied "Its fine Harry. Meet me after Dinner."

Harry smiled and left telling to Longbottom's to be ready at the end of the year to take him to vault. Harry believed there might be artifacts and books of great importance in the vault.

That evening Harry went to Hagrid. Hagrid on seeing Harry said "Hyi Harry. Really thanks to yeh. Now I can finish my owl's. A little late but bettr than neve yeh"

Harry smiled and replied "Hagrid we are going to Dumbledore for a meeting. You will know who got you expelled today in first place."

Hagrid's eyes became red as he said "It was Riddle Harry."

Harry replied "No Hagrid. It was not Riddle. It was him who opened the chamber and framed you. But someone else expelled you. I found out recently. But you will have to be quiet and subtle. He doesn't know you will be there and I will make him admit it."

Hagrid nodded and made him invisible, put a silencing charm on him and his feet and told him to maintain silence and be calm. He then took Hagrid to meeting with Dumbledore.

As Harry entered Dumbledore's office he made sure to linger at the door observing its design and said "I believe these runes are Egyptian" just giving time Hagrid to get in.

Dumbledore smiled and replied "Yes, my boy. Looks like you have an interest in runes. I have many books if you want to read."

Harry smiled and replied "As much as I like this discussion Headmaster I have something more serious to discuss."

Dumbledore nodded and said "be seated then. Lemon drop?"

Harry rejected the candy and said "I Harry James Potter swears on my magic and life that the following discussion between me and Dumbledore will not be disclosed to third party by me."

Dumbledore was stunned at this but thought "At least it won't go out."

Harry then asked "You knew Tom riddle well headmaster?"

Dumbledore paled but replied "Yes Harry. As you already know he is none other than Voldemort. I am very regretful to say that It was me who brought him to this school."

Harry here used his mage sight and put a suggestion in Dumbledore's mind to spill whole truth and then asked "I believe you knew it was him who opened the chamber in first place?"

Dumbledore said "Yes. I saw in his mind. He didn't have strong defenses by then and I legilemensed him."

Harry then asked "I believe it was you who got Hagrid expelled in his place?"

Dumbledore said "Yes. I am regretful to this day but it was me who said it was Hagrid and got him expelled."

Harry asked "Why?"

Hagrid was in tears. The man he trusted all his life was the one who ruined it.

Dumbledore said "Tom was powerful and clever. I wanted him to be my apprentice and succeed me. He was impulsive and had great ideas. He required a little motivation so I sacrificed Hagrid who was nothing compared to Tom. He deserved a second chance and I thought may be after the death of a fellow student and expulsion of another he will change. I was wrong."

Harry asked "How did you manage it?"

Dumbledore said "Once I knew Tom was behind it and found Hagrid had his pet spider, I told tom to expose Hagrid. When that was done I took antidote for vetraserum and answered the questions to Board. I told them Hagrid was young and naïve and bringing him to trial will destroy his will power. So I managed to convince them to give him a chance and not send him to Azkaban but got him expelled."

Harry smiled and said "Thank you for your time professor. I will visit some other time."

Harry opened the door and waited for a minute looking at Dumbledore but actually allowing Hagrid to leave. He then left and only then Dumbledore realized he was tricked into telling the whole story. He was at least happy Harry can't retell it. Little did he know damage was already done and there's no changing it.

As Harry walked back Hagrid to cottage he said "see Hagrid, everyone is not what they seem. I wanted you to know the truth."

Hagrid hugged Harry and cried "I trusted that man all my life Harry. Why? Why me?"

Harry patted his shoulder and said "I will make him pay Hagrid. I need you to do something for me when time comes."

Hagrid wiped his tears and said "Anything for you Harry."

Harry smiled and said "Take care Hagrid. Don't dwell on this. Study and prove to them what you are."

Hagrid waved him good bye and collapsed on his giant sized bed. He felt betrayed.

Two months have passed and exams were approaching. Most of upper years were nervous wreck and so McGonagall decided it was time for last Hogsmeade weekend. So on the warm Sunday Harry was sitting in Professor Flitwick's quarters along with Professor McGonagall and Sprout and Patil's. Harry and McGonagall were playing a game of chess while Padma was chatting with Flitwick about charms. Praveen and Parvati were joking with Herbology professor.

They were having fun as Potter's and black along with other professors except Snape were watching children in Hogsmeade. Suddenly stag patronous of James potter burst in saying "Minerva, we are being attacked by death eaters. More than a hundred are here and may be more will come. We need support immediately. Inform auror's and come at once. They have five dragons."

McGonagall looked at Harry who said "Queen to Queen eight, discover check and incidentally mate…."
