Amnesia

Chapter 5

Currently in the library Harry was reading something in silence since he got bored but for some reason fate hated him.

"Hey Harry do you know anything about Nicholas Flamel?" Sam whispered. Harry looked displeased that someone interrupted his peaceful reading session despite already knowing it would happen.

"Dont know who that is and dont care" Harry stated just giving a glance towards Sam and went back on reading his book.

"Oh..What are you reading?"

"As far as Im concern you have eyes dont you?" He snapped. He was getting irrated every second Sam would open his mouth.

"I know you're reading a book but I want to know what the topic is"

"Thats none of your business"

"Pleaseee tell mee Harry" Sam whined like a child when their parents wouldnt buy them something.

"Piss off!"

Sam just sighed and obliged. He didnt know why Harry acted so mean to him and the others but he was so nice to a selective few. The selective few were: Dean, Seamus, Justin Finch-Fletchly from Hufflepuff and Terry Boot from Ravenclaw.

Christmas break had arrive and Harry had asked if he could stay at the school which the Dursley's didnt mind but they have sent their presents already.

Sam could be seen dragging Harry towards his or in other words their parents quarters. Once they have arrived James and Lily smiled to see the twins. "Just in time you two we are going to eat dinner now" Lily said with a smile and Sam beamed brightly while Harry was just looking around not caring about the three people in the room. Once they sat down and ate James decided to ask Harry a few questions.

"So Harry tell me, how was it living with your aunt and uncle?"

"..It was fine"

"Were they nice to you?"

"...yes"

"Are there anything interesting muggle games?"

"I dont play games"

"What do you usually do there?"

"Skywatching.."

Sam got even more intrigued

Lily and James had a sad smile on their faces since they knew about Harry's condition. If only they could find the cure to it but amnesia depends on how much the brain was damaged.

Today was another Potions Class. Harry had to do doubles on all subjects due to his amnesia which made him agitated and nearly blew up his book. Sam didnt like the fact he didnt have double classes nor does he like the fact Harry cant have normal classes but he cant do anything about it.

Severus Snape, The potions master and potions professor at hogwarts, was not looking forward to his first year students.

He had a Weasley, A know-it-all, a spoiled Potter and an amnesiac Potter. Merlin knows he went ballistic and yelled at the Potters for child negligence that caused the boy to have amnesia. Now he stood infront of the class and decided to test the famous Potter.

"Potter"

Both Potter's looked at the man and he froze for a millisecond.

'Right...There are two of them' Snape thought and looked at the red haired Potter.  The boy got the just and stood up.

"Yes sir?"

"What would I get if added a root of asphodel to an infusion of wormwood?"

Sam snarled and glared at Snape furiously, "I don't know."

Snape's voice became dangerously low and replied, "Pity. Clearly didn't have the time to read a book?"

Sam planned to retort but was cut off when Snape asked again.

"Pray tell me, Mr. Potter, where would you go if I asked you to find me a bezoar?"

"I don't know," growled Sam.

"Clearly fame isn't everything." Snape mocked.

"Last chance, Mr. Potter. What is the difference between monkshood and wolfsbane"

"I don't know, " Sam replied agitated, and raised his voice a bit.

Snape scoffed and crossed his arms over his chest, "What a pity. For someone so famous, you don't know the basics."

" Clearly Hermoine knows. It's a shame you don't ask her," Sam snapped at the potions master.

Before Snape could retort, Harry raised his hand shyly, "May I answer the questions, professor?"

Snape was a bit taken aback but then nodded, "Go ahead Potter. I'm sure you'll do better than your brother." If looks could kill, Snape would be burning under Sam's furious glare.

Harry stood up and pondered for a minute, "For the first question... You would get a... strong sleeping potion called Draft- Draught of Living dead..."

The amnesiac gryffindor glanced at Dean, who nodded that it was correct.

"The second questions is, you can find a bee... Bez-"

"Bezoar," Snape corrected patiently.

"Bezoar in a goats stomach" Harry continued. "And the last question, there is...mo difference between Monkshood and wolfsbane, they are the same thing...called Aconite...?"

Harry was no longer sure of his answer, but with the way Snape looked at him softly and made him sit down was indication that it was correct. The professor looked at the standing Potter with a sneer.

"It looks like your brother is more...gifted than you, Mr. Potter." Snape drawled, "If he wasn't in your house then I appear there is no saving grace for you. 5 points for Gryffindor, in courtesy of your saviour's twin."

Sam sneered at Snape while Harry blushed at the compliments Seamus and Dean threw at him.

The professor merely sighed and went back to the teachers desk and ordered the students to read silently. This will be a long year.
