"Ron you don't suppose this is going to be like real wizard chess do you?" Hermione asked.

"You there D5!" Once the pawn took its place white made its second move and took our pawn. Pieces of our pawn flew everywhere.

"Yes Hermione, I think it's going to be exactly like a Wizard Chest!" He said. We kept playing, lots of shattered pawns, knights, castles, and bishop's were on the border.

"Wait a minute!" Harry said.

"You understand Harry, once I make my move the queen will take me. Then you're free to check the king." Ron said.

"Ron no!" I yelled.

"What is it?" Hermione asked.

"Ron is going to sacrifice himself!" I said.

"No you can't! There must be some other way!" Malone yelled.

"Do you want to stop Snape from getting that stone or not?!" Ron said.

"Harry and Harley, it's you two that has to go on. Not me, not Hermione, you guys." We nodded as he made his move. "Knight to H3. Check." We watched in horror as the queen made her move.

"AHHH!" He yelled as he fell.

"Ron!" Malone tried to go help him but Harry stopped her.

"No, don't move, remember we're still playing." Hermione and I wanted Harry to make his move.

"Check mate." He said then the king's sword fell. We all ran over to Ron.

"Take care of Ron. Then go to the alleyway and send a message to Dumbledore. Ron's right, we have to go on." He said, looking at me.

"You be ok Harry, Harley, your great wizards. You really are." Hermione said.

"Not as good as you." I said.

"Hm me? Books, cleverness, there are more important things. Friendship and bravery. Harry, Harley just be careful." She gave me a hug.

"We will." I said as we got up. Snape will not get off easily. As we walked down the stairs every step we took I got a little more uneasy. When we got closer Harry's scar started to hurt.

"You!?" We said in unison as Professor Quirrell turned around.

"No it can't be!" Harry said.

"We were sure it was Snape!" I said.

"Yes, he does seem the type doesn't he?" Quirrell said. "Next to him, who would suspect p-p-poor s-stuttering P-P-Professor Quirrell?"

"But that day during the quidditch match Snape tried to kill Harry." I said.

"No dear, I tried to kill him. Trust me I would have succeeded if Snape's cloak didn't catch fire and I lost eye contact. Even with Snape muttering his little counter curse."

"Snape was trying to save me?" Harry and I were confused. Out of all the teachers Snape hated us the most.

"I knew you were a danger right from the off. Especially after Halloween." He said.

"Then you let the troll in!" I said getting my wand ready.

"Very good Ms. Potter. Yes Snape unfortunately wasn't fooled. While everyone was running about the dungeon, Snape went to the 3rd floor to head me off. He of course never trusted me again. He rarely leaves me alone, but he doesn't understand that I'm never alone never." He turned around and faced the mirror. "Now what does this mirror do, ah I see what I desire I see myself holding the Sorcerer's Stone. How do I get it?"

"Use the boy!" A whisper said.

"Come here Potter!" Quirrell yelled, pointing at Harry.

"No!" I yelled standing in front of him with my wand at the ready.

"Now!" He yelled. Harry pushed past me.
