Chapter 16

As im reading some books i saw the gryffindor quidditch team on their way i saw the slytherin too they're talking now i got up and went to them.

"But I booked the field!"i heard Wood, positively spitting with rage. "I booked it!"

"Ah," said Flint. "But I've got a specially signed note here from Professor Snape. I, Professor S. Snape, give the Slytherin team permission to practice today on the Quidditch field owing to the need to train their new Seeker'. "

"You've got a new Seeker?" said Wood, distracted. "Where?"

And from behind the six large figures before them came a seventh, smaller boy, smirking all over his pale, pointed face. It was Draco Malfoy. I smiled

"Aren't you Lucius Malfoy's son?" said Fred, looking at Malfoy with dislike.

"Funny you should mention Draco's father," said Flint as the whole Slytherin team smiled still more broadly. 

All seven of them held out their broomsticks. Seven highly polished, brand-new handles and seven sets of fine gold lettering spelling the words Nimbus Two Thousand and One gleamed under the Gryffindors'noses in the early morning sun.

"I see you got in?" I said and smiled.

"Yup, proud?" Draco asked walking to me.

"You can say that" i said pushing him back to his team mates. I saw draco gave harry a death glare.

Ron and Hermione were crossing the grass to see what was going on.

"What's happening?" Ron asked Harry. "Why aren't you playing? And what's he doing here?"

He was looking at Malfoy, taking in his Slytherin Quidditch robes.

"Im the new slytherin seeker" says draco.

Ron gaped, open-mouthed, at the seven superb broomsticks in front of him.

"Thats the new nimbus two thousand and one how did you get those?" Ron asked.

"A gift from draco's father" says flint.

"You see weasly im like some my father can afford the best" says draco.

The Slytherin team howled with laughter.

"At least no one on the Gryffindor team had to buy their way in," said Hermione sharply. " They got in on pure talent."

The smug look on Malfoy's face flickered.

"No one asked your opinion, you filthy little Mudblood," he spat. I looked at him immediately.

"You'll pay for that one, Malfoy! Eat slugs" and pointed it furiously at Malfoys face.

A loud bang echoed around the stadium and a jet of green light shot out of the wrong end of Ron's wand, hitting him in the stomach and sending him reeling backward onto the grass.

"Ron! Ron! Are you all right?" squealed Hermione.

Ron opened his mouth to speak, but no words came out. Instead he gave an almighty belch and several slugs dribbled out of his mouth onto his lap.

The Slytherin team were paralyzed with laughter. Flint was doubled up, hanging onto his new broomstick for support. Malfoy was on all fours, banging the ground with his fist. The Gryffindors were gathered around Ron, who kept belching large, glistening slugs. Nobody seemed to want to touch him.

"We'd better get him to Hagrid's, it's nearest," said Harry to Hermione, who nodded bravely, and the pair of them pulled Ron up by the arms. I feel bad about Hermonie. Looked at them as they walk away.

"We'll be practicing quidditch ill go now lia" he said and smiled.

I nodded. As sson as they're out of sight i went to hagrids hut I knock on the door.

"Hello Ms. Simmons" says hagrid. "Do you need anything?" He asked.

"I wanted to check on ron and Hermonie" i said.

Hagrid looked at Hermonie like he's thinking if he will let me in.

"Its okay hagrid she's my friend" i heard Hermonie. Hagrid nodded and give way for me to get in.

"is he okay?" I looked at ron.

Potter just look at Ron. "So tell me," said Hagrid, jerking his head at Ron. "Who was he tryin'ter curse?"

"Malfoy called Hermione something - it must've been really bad, because everyone went wild." Says potter.

"It was bad," said Ron hoarsely, emerging over the tabletop looking pale and sweaty. "Malfoy called her Mudblood,'Hagrid--"

Ron dived out of sight again as a fresh wave of slugs made their appearance. Hagrid looked outraged.

"He didn'!" he growled at Hermione.

"He did," i said. 

"But I don't know what it means. I could tell it was really rude, of course--" says harry

"It's about the most insulting thing he could think of," gasped Ron, coming back up. "Mudblood's a really foul name for someone who is Muggle-born - you know, non-magic parents. There are some wizards - like Malfoy's family - who think they're better than everyone else because they're what people call pure-blood." He gave a small burp, and a single slug fell into his outstretched hand. He threw it into the basin and continued, "I mean, the rest of us know it doesn't make any difference at all. Look at Neville Longbottom - he's pure-blood and he can hardly stand a cauldron the right way up."

"An'they haven't invented a spell our Hermione can'do," said Hagrid proudly, making Hermione go a brilliant shade of magenta.

"It's a disgusting thing to call someone," said Ron, wiping his sweaty brow with a shaking hand. "Dirty blood, see. Common blood. It's ridiculous. Most wizards these days are half-blood anyway. If we hadn't married Muggles we'd've died out."

"Anyways what brings you here lyn" i heard Hermonie.

"Im here to say sorry on what draco said to you earlier i know he's a jerk for saying that, im really sorry" i told her.

"It wasn't your fault lyn" she smiled.

"I better get going im pretty sure my friends are finding me now sorry again Hermonie hope you feel better soon ron, hagrid, harry bye" I said they nodded and i went out of the hut and walk back to the castle.

October arrived, spreading a damp chill over the grounds and into the castle. Madam Pomfrey, the nurse, was kept busy by a sudden spate of colds among the staff and students. We're having dinner now we talked about how draco join etc. after dinner we are walking now on our way to the dungeon when we saw something written on the wall, harry, ron and Hermonie are there.

THE CHAMBER OF SECRETS HAS BEEN

OPENED. ENEMIES OF THE HEIR, BEWARE

Then someone shouted through the quiet.

"Enemies of the Heir, beware! You'll be next, Mudbloods!"

It was Draco Malfoy. He had pushed to the front of the crowd, his cold eyes alive, his usually bloodless face flushed, as he grinned at the sight of the hanging, immobile cat 

"What's going on here? What's going on?"

Attracted no doubt by Malfoy's shout, Argus Filch came shouldering his way through the crowd. Then he saw Mrs. Norris and fell back, clutching his face in horror.

"My cat! My cat! What's happened to Mrs. Norris?" he shrieked.

And his popping eyes fell on Harry.

"You!"he screeched. " You ! You've murdered my cat! You've killed her! I'll kill you! I'll--"

"Argus!"

Dumbledore had arrived on the scene, followed by a number of other teachers. In seconds, he had swept past Harry, Ron, and Hermione and detached Mrs. Norris from the torch bracket.

"Everyone go to your dormitories except for you three." Says Dumbledore.

Draco smirked at them then walk to our common room, professor snape gave me a look and followed my friend we went to the common room. It's happening ugh im getting scared now. Draco looked at me i guess he figured out im thinking about what happen.

"Its okay lia we're safe" he said and i nodded. "You should go get some rest"

"Alright goodnight" i told him and went inside my room as i walk in i saw Chloe ans pansy.

"What are you two doing here?" I asked. Since something happen again we're having a sleep over" pansy laughed.

"Plus we're all scared" chloe said.

"Got a point haha alright" i said. I went to the bathroom and change into my pajamas, and sleep with them.

The next day i wake up and wake the girls up and tell them to get ready, they wake up and went to their rooms to change. I went to the bathroom clean my body and change into my uniforms, i got my bag and went outside the boys are already waiting i saw the girls went out of their rooms and walks to the living room in the table there are already breakfast we just eat at the common rom after eating we went to our first class which is transfiguration with professor Mcgonagall.Today was as boring as ever. Professor Mcgonagall Is talking about things in transfiguration when Hermione put up her hand.

"Yes Miss Granger?"

"Professor. I was wondering if you could tell us anything about the Chamber of Secrets," said Hermione in a clear voice. I saw draco looked at her then at professor Mcgonagall.

Dean Thomas, who had been sitting with his mouth hanging open, gazing out of the window, jerked out of his trance; Lavender Brown's head came up off her arms and Neville Longbottom's elbow slipped off his desk.

Professor Mcgonagall blinked.

"Very well, You all know, of course, that Hogwarts was founded over a thousand years ago - the precise date is uncertain - by the four greatest witches and wizards of the age. The four school Houses are named after them: Godric Gryffindor, Helga Hufflepuff, Rowena Ravenclaw, and Salazar Slytherin. They built this castle together, far from prying Muggle eyes, for it was an age when magic was feared by common people, and witches and wizards suffered much persecution."

"For a few years, the founders worked in harmony together, seeking out youngsters who showed signs of magic and bringing them to the castle to be educated. But then disagreements sprang up between them. A rift began to grow between Slytherin and the others. Slytherin wished to be more selective about the students admitted to Hogwarts. He believed that magical learning should be kept within all-magic families. He disliked taking students of Muggle parentage, believing them to be untrustworthy. After a while, there was a serious argument on the subject between Salazar and Godrick, and Salaza left the school."

"Salazar, according to the legend, sealed the Chamber of Secrets so that none would be able to open it until his own true heir arrived at the school. The heir alone would be able to unseal the Chamber of Secrets, unleash the horror within, and use it to purge the school of all who were unworthy to study magic."

There was silence as she finished telling the story, but it wasn't the usual, sleepy silence that filled Professor Mcgonagall classes. There was unease in the air as everyone continued to watch her, hoping for more. Professor Mcgonagall looked nervous .

"The whole thing is arrant nonsense, of course," she said. "Naturally, the school has been searched for evidence of such a chamber, many times, by the most learned witches and wizards. It does not exist. A tale told to frighten the gullible."

Hermione's hand was back in the air.

"Professor - what exactly do you mean by the horror within'the Chamber?"

"That is believed to be some sort of monster, which the Heir of Slytherin alone can control," said Professor Mcgonagall.

The class exchanged nervous looks. And ron looked at draco and i.

"I tell you, the thing does not exist," said Professor Mcgonagall. "There is no Chamber and no monster class dismissed. And with that we all got up but draco stopped me.

"Im gonna write to my father and asked about the chamber of secrets maybe you can ask your grandma too since Simmons didn't left being a slytherin for centuries" says draco.

"Alright-" I said.

"Lets go we don't have free time today"he grabbed my hand and drag me out of the classroom he's walking too fast.

"Then the heir of slytherin has returned to hogwarts" i heard Hermonie. "But the question is who is it?"

"Lets think who do we know, who thinks all muggle born are scum?" I heard ron.

"Are we talking about malfoy?" Said Hermonie.

"Of course, you heard him you'll be next mudbloods" says ron.

And that when i looked at them furiously, they looked at me in shock.

"Its okay lia let them" i heard draco and continue walking.

"I just dont want them talking to you like that like your a really evil person" i told him and opened the common rooms door.

"It's alright" draco said while getting a paper and a quill.

I wrote to my grandma once draco's done we went to the owl post and get our owl and released them.

We went back to the castle. The next day As eleven o'clock approached, the whole school started to make its way down to the Quidditch stadium. It was a muggy sort of day with a hint of thunder in the air. I saw Mr. Malfoy along with my grandma i run to them.

"Grandma what are you doing here?" I asked her and hugged her.

"Lucius invited me to watch draco's game" she smiled at me and wink.

I smiled nervously "ohhh thats great then"

"Oh here's draco making its way" says grandma.

"Good day amora" says draco. "My father invited you?"

"Yes and please just call me ellies" my grandma asked said.

"They're calling me i better go, your not gonna give me any good luck lia?" He asked.

"No, just kidding good luck then" i laughed. And he smiled and walk away.

Lucius and my grandma looked at me. Oof.

"My friends are waiting i better go" i told them and hug my grandma one more time. They nodded and i made my way to where chloe and pansy are.

"Your grandma is so pretty and so clean she's screaming slytherin vibes." Says pansy.

I laughed. 

"She's the only Simmons and lyn plus Simmons didn't have any half bloosds or sum of course her appearance is gonna scream slytherin vibes like look at Lucius" i heard chloe.

"Shh you three stop the game is gonna start" says goyle.

"On my whistle," said Madam Hooch. "Three... two... one..."

With a roar from the crowd to speed them upward, the fourteen players rose toward the leaden sky. It had started to rain Lee Jordan, who was commentating, say, "Slytherin lead, sixty points to zero" slytherin cheers. The Slytherins'superior brooms were clearly doing their jobs draco and harry are now both running before the snitch harry just broke his arm and draco got into a little accident in the end gryffindor won. My grandma went to my way while Lucius looked at draco with disappointment he brings draco to the hospital wing my grandma and I just followed one Lucius put draco to bed and make sure everything is okay and left.

"We'll be going now" says my grandma. I nodded she gave me a letter and smiled she kissed my forehead and left.

"You okay now?" I asked him.

"Yeah lets go" he said coldly.

I looked at harry's bed and saw that the gryffindor team and his friends are there.

"Alright-" i said.

"You ok cousin? Your mother is so worried he wrote a letter for you as soon as your father told her what happen" chloe speaks.

"Im fine lets go" says draco.

We nodded and went out of the hospital wing.
