A few days have passed now since I told Hermione about my side of the story. We were sitting in the transfiguration class and McGonagall was teaching us about transforming living material into inanimate objects and aside from Potions and Charms, this is my third favourite class.

McGonagall said, "Do you have any questions?"

Hermione raised her hand and Hermione asked, "Can you tell us more about the Chamber of secrets?"

After that McGonagall started to monologue about the chamber of secrets. I saw many of the faces that looked at me and thought of me as the heir to Salazar. They wouldn't be wrong about that. After the class was finished Hermione stayed behind to talk to McGonagall.

I wanted to go and talk to the snake to see if I could control it. If the theories are right only the Heir to Salazar Slytherin will be able to control it fully. And I am an Heir.

I always thought that Harry might be able to do it as well but as it turns out. Being a Parselmouth is not enough you need to have Salazar's Blood in you to be able to control the snake.

But I couldn't go and talk to it because I had framed myself as a suspect and now people are keeping a close eye on me, and the reason I did so was that Malfoy would do something stupid.

So I would be able to shift the power from Fudge. But the plans have fallen through Malfoy hasn't moved at all yet, not even against Dumbledor.

So I now have to wait till the Duel so that the attention can be on Harry. After that, I will be able to move freely.
-------------------------
A few days have passed now and the amount of students in the infirmary has increased. A good thing did come to form this the school now has opened a duelling club so that we could protect ourselves.

(In the Library)

I was studying for once and it was a book that I had copied from the ROR. It was about magic rituals, how to incorporate different beasts into one's body and make it stronger and gain power. It was an interesting read.

It had told successful ways to complete the rituals with different beasts like Wapus cat, Thunderbird and other more rare creature's like Basilisk, Dragons and Pheonix

Victoria asked, "You are actually studying for once."

I said, "Yeah, just wanted to lay low for a while after my shenanigans."

Victoria asked, "You heard about the Dueling lessons?"

I said "Of course I have. I am very excited although I would have been more excited if someone other than Lockhart were to teach us."

Alyssa said, "I don't know he can be a good teacher."

I smiled and said, "Then prepare to be disappointed, my friend."

Hermione said, "I think that Prof Lockhart can teach us something."

I said, "Wanna Bet on it?" Daphne and Victoria had a grin on their faces.

Alyssa and Hermione said "We accep..." but were interrupted by Olivia and she said, "Don't do it he is going to win." They looked at Olivia's face and she was serious and then they looked at mine and I had this stupid smile and asked "So?"
They looked at each other and nodded and said: "We accept but if we win you teach us magic and if we lose you get a favour."

I said "I accept this bet." and we shook on it and after that, I said "I will hold onto those favours. You won't be able to say 'No' anything I say." They sort of regretted it but on the upside, if they win they get to learn magic from me.

(We all were gathered in the hall for the demonstration.)

Lockhart came prancing around the table and said "Gather around children. Can everybody hear me? Can everybody see me? Excellent."
