Chapter 34

I walk into the Great Hall the next day and sit down at the Gryffindor table next to Angelina and opposite Katie when suddenly the people to the right of me begin to shift towards us, making me slightly confused and look down the table to see Hermione, Ron and Harry just sitting down. "W... why's everyone moving away from Hermione, Ron and Harry?" I ask my friends. "Lily, Harry's a parselmouth. Salazar Slytherin was a parselmouth. People are saying that he's the heir of Slytherin." Katie tells me, making me look at her confused.

"But, I'm Harry's sister, surely if he's the heir of Slytherin then I should be another heir of Slytherin as well, right?" I ask him.

"In theory, yes. But Lily, it could've skipped you so you wouldn't be a parselmouth." Angie tells me. "But that would still mean that I'm an heir of Slytherin." I point out.

"Yes, it would. But the fact that you're not a pareselmouth would mean that no one would suspect you as an heir of Slytherin." Katie tells me.

"That's fine... I think..." I begin before realising something. "... wait. Hold up. My family isn't even related to Salazar Slytherin in any way, shape or form." I remind them.

"Could be a distant cousin or something maybe?" Angie suggests, making me shrug my shoulders. "Maybe, but I really shouldn't be pondering about this now." I tell them, making Angelina and Katie nod their heads. "But, right now, the two of us had better head to Transfiguration..." I begin, pointing to both Angelina and me before pointing at Katie. "... and you had better get to History of Magic." I finish before getting up from the Gryffindor table with Angelina and heading out of the hall with her and heading towards the Transfiguration classroom.

**************

Walking back into the common room that night was not the greatest idea that I had had all day because as soon as the portrait of the Fat Lady swings open and I step into the common room, all I can hear is Fred and George chanting, "Make way for the heir of Slytherin."

Finding this utterly ridiculous, I begin manoeuvring through the crowd of people whilst moving the strap of my satchel further up my shoulder before heading up the stairs but before I head through the door to go up the stairs towards the girl's dormitories, I stop by the door and look back down at the common room with a slight smile on my face.
