Chapter 52: half-Truth

With Snape's permission Edwin head to his office, the door was left open as he wasn't worried about anyone entering without his permission Edwin opened Snape's whiskey, heads, desk drawer to find potion recipe and some students paper at the back of the drawer there is a half-empty bottle of fire whiskey.

" I'll put it near the whiskey," Edwin said carefully placing the Diadem at the back of the drawer and left Snape's office.

Edwin returned to the room of requirement to study on Alchemy, even though he was more interested in Runes Edwin still found Alchemy an interesting subject to learn and since he already has the Philosopher's stone it would be a waste to not learn anything or even attempt to learn how to transmute lead to gold.

With Luna still in the Room of requirement, she would tell Edwin about the creature that she knows is real when Edwin would ask what she looking for but even with no records in any book or any proof that the creature exists Luna still believed that they are real but just haven't been discovered before.

The time quickly past and lunch was here Edwin and Luna left for the Grand-hall, As Edwin sat down at Slytherin table he notice that Isabella and the others weren't back from Hogsmeade as yet, the meal at Hogwarts are tasty and Edwin wouldn't miss a meal, " Edwin Snape wants to see you after you're finished " a beautiful girl with black hair deep brown eyes said

" Alright, thanks um " Edwin replied taking some food

" Mavis Casterwill," the girl said " I'm a year above you "

Noticing that Snape wasn't at the thigh table eating Edwin quickly finish his meal and head to Snape's office, Snape was already inside looking at the Diadem Edwin didn't disturb and took a seat.

"Can you explain How you found the fabled ring of Resurrection and Ravenclaw's lost Diadem ?" Snape asked as he stared into Edwin's eyes

" What's a Ravenclaw Diadem ?" Edwin asked pretending to be clueless " is that it,maybe I'm just lucky"

" Don't play the fool " Snape hissed walking from behind his desk " you found two objects that are said to be lost or a myth is a span of a couple of Months "

Before Edwin could say anything Snape cut him off " and they both seem to have a particularly nasty curses place on them one rots you with no cure and the other corrupts your mind, the other mystery is that the curses are weakened to a great extent making it simple to dispel "

" So the question Mr. Vaclav is how and why do you have those items, " Snape asked Edwin and his tone turn grim in for his next words " Before can attempt a lie...let me remind you that Dumbledore wouldn't be too happy to know that a student that he placed his trust in has such lost but dark items "

With Snape's threat, Edwin knew if what he said made no sense they will be visiting Dumbledore next " P-Professor I can explain " Edwin said with a small crack in his voice " But you cannot tell anyone else or it will put me in danger "

" It depends on what you say, " Snape said with a much softer tone " If it would put you in danger just for another to know you may need assistance "

" I'm somewhat of a Seer," Edwin said expecting Snape to have some question but he didn't say anything he just stood there looking at Edwin " unlike ordinary seer what I see can be changed there are not a prophecy that has been set in stone "

" That's how I found the items it wasn't me who is supposed to find them "

Snape stoic face showed a slight surprise and asked: "What do you mean not set in stone?"

" Take Lockhart, for example, he's supposed to be at St. Mungo's after a fail memory charm but he's out there making more books " Edwin stated

" Do you have visions of events "

" No...I saw what will happen years ago in a dream and it's now playing out "

" So you knew who opened the Chamber of secrets and what Quirrell was planning, " Snape asked glaring at Edwin " and you could have stopped them "

Edwin couldn't say anything as he knows that every event could have been avoided But there were thing that he wanted, Snape office became quite

" Will you tell Dumbledore?" Edwin asked Snape who looked as if he were trying to figure what to do

" No...but If you need help in the future you can come to me, " Snape said staking back his seat at his desk

" I do have something you can help me with, " Edwin said with a smile " Can you charm this Walkman to use Legilimency so I can play music from my memory- yes I also know that you use it on students "

" Professor Snape can you also teach me D.A.D.A and how to duel "

" Do you also need me to help you with the potion? " Professor Snape asked in a sarcastic tone but Edwin didn't catch on.

" I wasn't going to ask but that would be great " Edwin replied with a smile but Snape's face said it all he was joking when Edwin caught on he just went with it continue asking for potion advice.

" Out," Snape said showing Edwin the door" come back for the Walkman tomorrow the Diadem will take longer "

" Thanks, Professor Snape," Edwin said as he heads to the door " I'm glad to have your help "

As Edwin walked down the corridor he wonder why Snape didn't ask about the future even if Snape told Dumbledore Edwin knew that Dumbledore would try to use Snape to get to him but it was worth the chance to him as the image of a mountain of bodies appear in Edwin mind and a frown grew on his face the Bogart had left an impression on Edwin mind.

Back in Snape office, Snape had a choice to tell Dumbledore or to keep it a secret, he took out his bottle of fire whiskey and glass after taking a shot a Slight smile appear on his face " I'll wait and see he doesn't need to know everything'
