Serendipity : The Rebirth of Black Lotus

25. Reunited

We've taken different paths
And travelled different roads
I know we'll always end up on the same one when we're old
And when you're in the trenches
And you're under fire, I will cover you~~

Severus POV

"No! You are lying, this can't be truth" Potter exclaimed "Yes, Prongs is right, Godric can't be this bad to hurt his own soulmates" Black agreed with Potter "Potter I agree that Slytherins are vicious, cunning, sly, ambitious, manipulator, sneaky, selfish, sarcastic, rational, analytical, strategic, atypical, ruthless, vile, cruel, self-centered, shrewd, cold or any bad word you want to call us but we are not liars" I said looking at his eyes "And anyway nobody is asking you to believe him" Luci said "The same way you all hate Slytherins believing in those bastards, the same way we believe him" Reg added "W-what d-d-did t-they s-say? Salazar ask making us all gulp, how can we tell him just how bad they make him that it is worse than Satan

"Why don't I tell you about it, brother" a broken voice was heard, to hard to not recognize, we all look at Salazar completely stiff, he was about to do something but stopped by the same voice "Don't you dare, I have lose my brother once I am not letting it happen again", here stands a teary eyes Zadornin, begging his brother to not leave making Salazar more broke as he pull his brother in hug and clung to him like his life depends on it "I am sorry, I am so sorry, I am really sorry, I should have listen to you, I shouldn't have leave you I deserve it, I deserve it all, I deserve to be destroyed and betrayed the same way I did to you, I am really sorry, please forgive me" Salazar hyperventilate "Shh, it's okay, I will never give up on you, I got your back brother, always" Zadornin said rubbing circles in Salazar's back "I think we should leave them alone" I said as they all look at me and nod

   We all left the room and locking it with spell so nobody disturbed them "So" Luci continue looking at the lions "What are you all gonna do?" "What we should" Remus answered firmly "And how so?" Reg ask in which Black answered "Well the same way you didn't believe on what they said, we as well can't believe him" "So we will asked them" Potter said firmly "Very Well, you should leave than before someone see you" Bella said, shooing them "Wait!" Potter said looking at me "What is it now Potter" Luci groan but he keep looking at me "Severus, I, we all are really sorry for what we did and behave for past 4 year, I know it's hard for you, all, you all to forgive us but" he took a deep breath and continue "I, on the behalf of my fellow mauraders, want to call a truce, maybe become friends and-" "And it's okay if you don't but know that we all are really sorry for what we do" Remus jump in as they left dragging Potter

"What was that?" Cissy asked in confusion "The mauraders, the biggest hater of Slytherin, the biggest rivals of ours, just said sorry and ask for truce?" Meda ask equally confused "Did they hit there head somewhere?" Luci said "Well all of them hit at the same time?" Bella asked back growling at Luci well have I told you just how much Bella loves her sister, and she doesn't like that the person her beloved youngest sister is betrothed to, like some one else "Ah! both of you stop and pinch me I think I am dreaming" Reg groan "Well at least you still have a chance to make peace with your asshole of a brother" I said as Reg look at me with a raised eyebrow "Fine! your jerk of a brother" I said with a childish groan "Anyways if they really want to make a truce than, what should we do?" Luci asked looking at us "Well if you ask me, I think we should accept"

As soon as the words left my mouth everyone look at me like I have grown another head "And what if it's another prank of their" Reg said with a raised eyebrow "Than you three do whatever you want" I said pointing at Bella, Reg and Luci as they nod with an evil smirk, I shouldn't have say that

James POV

"So, what should we do now like how can we find if what he, I mean Salazar said is truth or not" Wormtail asked cautiously "Well we will do what we should, we will ask him but if you ask me I think what he say can be true not whole part but some of it" Mooney said warily "I think so too 'cause if what Salazar said is true than that explain why Godric grow all pale and stiff" Padfoot said in which I nod as we walk towards the Gryffindor Common Room

"Come in!" a shaky but stern voice was heard in the answer of our knock, we cautiously enter to meet with a young messy fawn hair man with alluring green eyes completely unlike from the portrait hanging in the Great Hall "You all, what are you doing here?" He asked "Well we want some answers and this time we are not leaving without getting a proper answer" I said firmly "And what is this question" he said with an amused smirk "Is it true that Salazar was your soulmate?" Wormtail making his pale tan skin more pale "W-who told you this?" he asked back

"That's not important, what important is, is it true or not" I said with a raised eyebrow, he gulp and said "Yes, it's true, so what?" "Is it true that you choose someone else over him?" Padfoot asked making his face more pale if possible with a hit of green "D-did h-h-he told you t-this?" he asked with a shaky breath "We will tell you if you answer all our questions" I said with my alpha voice, Woah love make you do all crazy, I have never in my wildest dreams think that I would ever question Godric the person I consider as my God with my alpha voice "It's true" he whispered shakily, barely audible "So it is true as well that you are the one who kill him?" Moony asked as a tear left his eyes and his face completely black

And with that he broke down but the thing non of us know what we should do, we just find out that Salazar is actually innocent and the real culprit is the one we worship as a God, we look at eachother when the burst open with a worried Rowena and guilty Helga "What is going in here? And shouldn't you all be in your class right now?" Rowena said looking at us "Well that's not the important thing right now-" Padfoot started but cut off by Rowena "Than what is important Mr. Black"

   "The fact that Salazar was not a culprit but actually a victim" I said which shock them, "And why you say that don't you know what he had done" Rowena try to convince but her shaky breath is not helping her, we look at her like how can she still try to convince us that Salazar was wrong, I get it they don't know about the fact that we have talk to Salazar and heard the whole story and no matter what non of us actually doubt at what he said was lie because if his every word and emotions are really fake than that man deserve a really big award for his acting
