They apparated to the outside of the doors where they left from and made their way back in and up to Headmaster Dippet's office to inform him of the changes they chose.

"Hello, Hadrian, Tom, and Horace. How was the trip?" Headmaster Dippet smiled at them.

"It went well, Headmaster! I changed my name to one of my inheritances. It's now Hadrian Peverell. I can't wait to research the history." Hadrian played up the excited boy who keeps discovering new things in this new world act. The Headmaster smiled at the young excited boy. He was glad he allowed young Hadrian to attend Hogwarts as he was doing exceptionally well.

"That is wonderful Hadrian. What about you Tom? How was the trip?"

"I also changed my name Headmaster Dippet. It is now Tom Slytherin." Tom stated politely. Dippet was shocked. The Gryffindor heir and the Slytherin heir in the school at the same time and they seem to be good friends already. He knew both boys were capable of amazing feats and this just proved it to him. These two boys were going to change the wizarding world.

Slughorn puffed up in pride after he heard the names. His two snakes were going places and these names would only help. He couldn't help but feel a sense of fatherly pride flowing through him when he looked at these boys.

They soon dispersed from the office and Slughorn walked the two boys down to the common room before leaving to go do whatever it is he does on a Saturday. Hadrian approached the long stretch of wall where the entrance was hidden and stated the password that was set to change soon. Once he said the word 'Purity', the passageway into the common room was revealed as the stones shifted and moved out of the way. They walked into the common room and the wall closed behind them. Tom sat in his spot and when Hadrian went to sit in an open seat, he made Avery move and had him sit in the now vacated seat. Hadrian shook his head and sat down with a small smile flashed towards Avery.

"How was the test?" Avery asked after a slight nod towards Hadrian. The group was admittedly curious about what they did.

"It went as expected." Tom stated. When it became clear that he wasn't going to continue, Hadrian started to talk after placing a sly muffliato charm up wandlessly and wordlessly.

"We both got our tests and I changed my name." Hadrian didn't know if Tom wanted them to know that he changed his so he didn't mention it. He wanted to see if they are simply curious about the test itself or if they would ask more questions. He didn't have to wait long as Avery brought up more questions.

"Well, what name did you change it to?" Avery could see the others barely lean in towards the two also curious about what Hadrian could have been inheriting. They knew he was powerful but they didn't exactly know what lines he may have come from.

"Ah yes I changed my name to Hadrian Peverell. It's an interesting thing to find out. Being one of the Sacred Twenty-Eight really makes a difference." Hadrian's eyes were shining in clear amusement when their jaws dropped out of shock.

"Did you change your name, Tom?"

"I did as well, yes. It is now Tom Slytherin." Tom was amused by how easy

"Oh dear. What um what other lines are you inheriting if you do not mind my asking?"

"That is an even funnier thing. You see, with inheriting Peverell we are all aware of the fact that Peverells are a descendant of Gryffindor, I am a direct heir of Gryffindor." Hadrian could just barely smother his laughter at the shocked looks the group held. They couldn't cover the shock as they thought he was a muggle-born since he got there but now they find out he is not only a pureblood but also the heir of Gryffindor. It was quite a shock and Hadrian was sure it would cause every Slytherin to break their masks as well if he hadn't put up the privacy charm when he did. The corner of Tom's mouth lifted in obvious amusement. He knew what Hadrian was going to do based on the amusement in his eyes and it turned out better than either of them thought.
