Chapter 10
Alena P.O.V
The next morning when I came downstairs with George I found Seamus asleep in a chair, his wand was out and lay across his lap. I walked over to where he was and smiled “Wake up Seamus” I said and shook him softly. He groaned “Five more minutes” he mumbled and rolled over. George grinned and shook him a bit harder “Come on bro breakfast time” Seamus jumped out of the chair “Where?” he asked and George laughed “Downstairs of course”
Seamus groaned “Why does it have to be so far away?” I grinned “I don’t know Seamus but if you want to eat come on” Seamus sighed and put his wand in his robe pocket. George walked over to the portrait and opened it “Ready Seamus” he asked and Seamus nodded and walked over to the door.
He ducked out the door and George wrapped his hand around mine and smiled. I smiled back and kissed his cheek. We walked out of the portrait hole and looked down, Seamus was already halfway down to the Great Hall “He does realize it’s not really time for breakfast right?” George asked. I laughed “I don’t think so”
A couple seconds later Seamus looked back up at us. I laughed and he came running back upstairs “Why’d you lie about breakfast?” I grinned “Because I was worried about you and I wanted to make sure you hadn’t died in your sleep” he rolled his eyes “Yeah, like I haven’t heard that one before” Seamus went back in the common room and flopped down on the couch.
I smiled and walked back inside, George was right behind me. I sat down in a chair and George sat on the arm of it. “Seamus did you notice anything about our dream last night?” Seamus looked up “Besides Lord Creep asking me to be a Death Eater and his heir, no nothing at all” George looked confused. “Wait, both of you had a dream about Voldemort, and he asked you” he pointed to Seamus “To be a Death Eater, and his Heir?” Seamus nodded. “Spooky huh” he said.
George nodded “Definitely, no offense bro but I don’t think it’s a good idea to hang around the heir of Voldemort” Seamus shrugged “Even if I am Volde’s heir, I’ll still kill him” George nodded “Good idea” I grinned.
“Now, he said something about you being a Death Eater, why would that be are you like related to one?” Seamus shrugged “As far as I know I’m not related to any Death Eaters” I nodded “Maybe our grandpa is a Death Eater” I said and Seamus and I both laughed.
George shrugged “With your dad, you never know, I hear a lot of people think he’s a death eater” I sighed. “My father can’t be a Death Eater, he’s not evil like them, I’ve seen one,” Seamus piped up “I’ve met one close up at the orphanage, tried to drive me mad he did” I shook my head “They’re everywhere,” Seamus nodded “But so are we, the difference is we don’t follow a killer”
George nodded. “We follow a good guy, and a good old man” I laughed “Would you be referring to Dumbledore as an old man?” George nodded “I mean he’s like a hundred years old” we all laughed. “I have to admit he’s still the most powerful wizard I’ve ever seen” George said. I nodded and Seamus shrugged “He doesn’t seem that good” George laughed “Then why don’t you duel him bro”
Seamus shrugged “Maybe because it’s not right to duel an old man” George laughed “Yeah sure that’s the reason” Seamus rolled his eyes and stood up. “I’m going to go get some breakfast” with that he walked out the door, George and I followed him downstairs.

My first class was Defense Against the Dark Arts so I headed up to my dad’s classroom. “Sit down” my dad said to everyone in the room, Seamus was in my class too. We sat down at a table next to each other. “I wonder what we’re learning today, maybe something about identifying freaky Death Eater relatives” Seamus said and I rolled my eyes “That’s not going to happen Seamus” he shrugged “It could happen” I laughed and my dad looked over at us “Do you find something funny Miss Snape” he asked. I shook my head “No, no sir” he turned back to the board and continued writing.
“What’s got him in a mood?” Seamus asked and I shrugged “Maybe he didn’t get any sleep or maybe mom kept him up with morning sickness” Seamus shrugged “Oh, by the way has mom told you if the kid is a boy or a girl?” I shook my head “I haven’t talked to mom about that,” Seamus grinned “Well we should ask her next time we see her” I nodded and my dad walked over again.
“No talking” he said and went back to the front of the room. I rolled my eyes and opened my book, Seamus opened his too but I noticed he had another book in his textbook. Why didn’t I think of that? Oh yeah, cause my brother thinks of everything bad. When class was over Seamus and I went towards our next class, he stopped and went to the bathroom. A few seconds later he said “Hey Lena come in here” I walked in and saw Seamus holding a snake by its tail.
“Seamus put that down” I said and he held up a finger “Watch this” and he started speaking in what sounded like hisses. All of a sudden one of the sinks sank into the ground, the whole ring of sinks started transforming. “Seamus what’d you just do?” I asked. He looked at the hole “I…I don’t know” he walked over and looked down into the hole. “But I want to see what’s in here” he jumped down into the hole. I hesitated, but then jumped in after him, I slid into a room full of bones.
I jumped up and looked around, Seamus was standing in front of what looked like a large stack of bones. “It’s a snake skin” he said. I instantly froze in terror “If that’s the skin then where…where’s the snake” Seamus looked up and pointed “My guess would be in there”. I followed his finger to a door with five snakes around the outside, Seamus walked over and spoke in that hissing language again and the door opened.
He stepped over the stoop and I followed him, we were in some kind of large chamber, stone snake heads surrounded us on both sides, and at the end was what looked like the face of a large stone man. “Who the hell is that?” Seamus asked. I looked around “Salazar Slyhterin” he looked back at me “How do you know?” I gestured to all the snakes surrounding us.
He rolled his eyes “yeah, ok right” and he looked back at the statue. “There’s something in front of it” we started walking towards it slowly. When we got halfway to it Seamus’s eyes widened “Lena, it’s the snake” my eyes widened. “You mean the one that shed the giant skin?” he rolled his eyes “No the one I was holding in the bathroom” I sighed “Sorry, just asking” he shrugged and continued walking towards the snake. “Seamus what if it’s alive?” I asked and he shrugged and pulled out his wand “Then I’ll kill it” I sighed. “Ok go ahead”.
Seamus walked over to the snake and kicked it in the head, it didn’t move, he looked closer. “It’s dead Lena, it has a hole in its head, I think someone stabbed it” I nodded and walked over. “But what is this exactly?” Seamus shot me a look “Besides a giant snake” he shrugged.
“Oh wait I know this” he put his hand to his temple then said “It’s a Basalisk, but its eyes have been ripped out, probably to stop people from dying if they looked at it” I nodded “But what is it doing here?” Seamus looked up at the mouth of the statue of Salazar, it was open. “I’m guessing it lives here,” his eyes widened “I just realized something” I looked at the mouth. “What?” I asked. “If this is a female, there’s bound to be eggs” he walked over towards the mouth and looked in, he backed away quickly.
“There are Basalisk eggs in there, when those hatch who knows what could happen?” I sighed. “They’re probably dead Seamus, don’t worry about it, come on” Seamus sighed and nodded. We started to walk out of the chamber, I could tell Seamus was worried about those eggs, if they were as deadly as the big one, the school is going to be in a lot of trouble.
