"Are you guys crazy?! You're only in your second year! How can you possibly make that! Where are you going to get the Fluxweed from? Or the lacewing flies? Don't even forget about the fact that it will take a month for it to stew!" I ranted on.

"You know the ingredients?" Hermione says shockingly

"I read about it somewhere, I have great memory." I say a little bit confused

"Good, I need help for the second part of this"

"WHAT?" I say "We can get in trouble for this you know! Why, why? Why are you guys even making such advanced potion, why in the girls lavatory? Why is Hermione making it? Who are you guys trying to be? Why are you guys trying to be them? Where are you going get the ingredients?" I say trying to get at least one answer from this.

Harry sighs in frustration "She's here anyways, might as well let her in on this"

"IN ON WHAT?!" I say really terrified. Hermione was a little nervous trying to tell me.

"The writings on the wall" Hermione starts "It said 'the chambers of secret as been opened, enemies of the heir beware', the chambers of secrets is known to be created by Salazer Slytherin, and we believe that well... Enemies of the Heir.."

"We think it's Malfoy" Harry finishes Hermione's sentence.

"So what does that have to do with the polyjuice potion?" I ask

"We're trying to transform into Crabbe and Goyle two of Malfoy's henchmen to try to get in on what Malfoy thinks." Harry continued.

"And how do we get their DNA?" I say

They all exchanged looks again "We don't know" Ron answers and little bit nervously.

"And if you guys fail?"

They exchanged looks again but this time Ron looks down at his feet and says "we don't know"

"And where are you even-"

"Okay we get it Eyra," Harry interrupts "We know the consequences and we're willing to get expelled to save Hogwarts." He starts to look deep in my eyes, his green eyes shining at me. I heard about how he has his mother's eyes and well I've never met Harry's mother before but I guess they're right somehow. I still don't know if Harry actually did write the letters on the wall and I don't know if this is just all a trick because it sounds so childish and impossible but the tone of their voice and the way they talk to me... it's hard to say no. But I have to look with the facts here! If this is all true, if they're all doing this to find out what the writing on the wall means then that means Harry didn't write it. And if they are lying to me, why? Surely they wouldn't lie to me, I haven't done anything wrong with them and like what Hermione said, Haela's loyal to them and they're loyal to Haela.

"Fine" I say finally sitting beside Hermione with the cauldron.

Days passed and passed as Hermione and I gather the ingredients (some we had to steal from Professor Snape). It was a hard task and if we fail, that's one month wasted. "Finally the First step is done!" I sigh in relief.

"All we have to do is wave our wand to finish this step." Hermione says and looks at me giving me the honours. I hesitate for a while, I haven't been practicing my wand skills... I've been too caught up with school and making the potion I didn't even have the time to eat lunch.

"Hermione you can do it. I mean you did it last time for the first part of the first step" I say anxiously

She gives me a look and waits for a couple of seconds thinking I'd take it back, but I didn't "alright" and she did as so.

After the wand was waved, Harry and Ron decided to come in to see the progress.

"We're almost done. The only ingredient we're lacking is Crabbe and Goyle's hair" I say to Harry and Ron.

"How are we going to get their hairs without them knowing? We certainly can't go in the Slytherin's dorm room to get it." Ron says

"I have a plan" Hermione starts. We were all ears "Professor McGonagall was coming around earlier today getting people to sign wether or not they're going to be staying here for Christmas. I saw Goyle, Crabbe, and Malfoy's name printed on it. I've made some chocolate cupcakes with sleeping pills embedded in it. Give it to them without them noticing it was you, and once they are asleep, take a strand of their hairs and give it to us as soon as possible, got that?" She says and they nodded.

Before Christmas, Harry had a quidditch tournament. I didn't get to see the whole tournament, I was too busy trying to steal some Leeches from Professor Snape while he was watching the tournament. But once I came in and saw, I sat beside Haela who was focused on what is happening.

"What's happening?" I say

"Look at the bludger, it's been tempered with!" Hae says point at Harry. I looked at where Haela points, seeing that instead of trying to get the snitch, instead he was running away from a bludger that won't go away!

"How come it's only aiming for Harry?"

"That's the weird part. It's suppose to aim for all the players." She says then after looking at me "I think it's Malfoy"

I was confused for a while. How does she know about Malfoy?

After the quidditch, Harry had to be sent into the hospital because he broke his arm from that bludger, well... I guess his arms not technically broken, because is no bones in his arm now because of Gildroy's spell, Brackium Emendo, a healing spell that's suppose to mend bones, but seems that professor Gildroy got it all wrong. But Harry still manages to win the quidditch tournament.

At midnight, I couldn't stop tossing and turning. Ever since Harry got hurt I've been so gloomy and worried now and I always have this temptation to visit him. So I quietly got out of bed and tiptoe my way to the hospital.

"Turn that thing off!" The paintings shout. "It's past midnight!" "Are you out of your mind?" "Get that bright thing away from me!" "I'm trying to sleep here!"

I tried to be quiet as a mouse but the painting made it really difficult. But alas, I finally made it. I sat beside his bed and I just stared at him. I felt my cheeks turn warm and I suddenly had the urge to smile widely and scream out loud and to bounce everywhere and I could not stop shaking! I never saw him without glasses before, and I gotta say. He is so damn cute.

I gently touch his boneless arm. His skin was cold and soft, my hand finally moved to his hair which is silky and ductile, I could almost fall asleep just by touching his hair. My hand moves to his rosy cheek, soft, so squishy. But then at the spur of the moment, his head moved toward me and his mouth began to move.

"Haela" he starts. I felt a wave of disappointment when he said that. I guess I was hoping he'd say my name. "Haela's sister" he said again. I smile, even though Haela didnt have a sister, I think he meant me. I felt all giggidy again. I grip his boneless arm in happiness.

"Sahsha swi hass ma Shia sees" I was confused at first, those weren't words, they sound almost like.. Parseltongue- language of the snakes. Weird, I read in a book that Parseltongue is a gift that is closely associated with.. non other than Salazar Slytherin. I backed away a little as I stop gripping Harry's hand.

"No" I say quietly. Harry can't be a descendant of Slytherin... He can't be the heir, he's Harry Potter goddamnit!

..Enemies of the heir beware..
