Ron and Harry ran into Y/N's room and woke them up.

"What the Fuck guys?!" Y/N yelled

"Harry wants to show us something he found." Ron said eagerly

The three rushed through the castle and into a room. There was only a mirror.

"Come on! Come on! Look! I saw my parents!" Harry ran to the mirror

"That's not posible, Harry!" Y/N ran over

Ron stood in front of the mirror.

"I only see us." Ron spoke

"Look properly." Harry stood to the side, "There. You see them, don't you."

"That's me! Only, I'm head boy." Ron exclaimed, "And I'm holding the quidditch cup. And bloody hell! I'm quidditch captain too!"

Harry looked disappointed.

"Let me try!" Y/N pushed Ron to the side

Y/N saw them self, how they were supposed to look. Their friends stood around them: James, Sirius, Remus, Peter, Lily, Mary, Marlene, Pandora, Barty, Evans, and Regulus. They were all having fun, no issues.

"Oh my God." Y/N stumbled back, "The mirror shows what you want most."

"I'm going back to bed." Ron walked out

Harry sat down in front of the mirror. Y/N sat down next to him and hugged him.

"Your parents were amazing people, Harry." Y/N spoke softly

"How do you know?" Harry asked

"Molly was good friends with your mother." Y/N half lied

Harry and Y/N came back may times. This time, Dumbledore appeared behind the two.

"Back again, you two?" Dumbledore spoke

The two stood up quickly.

"I see that you, like so may before you, have discovered the delights of the Mirror of Erised." He continued, "I trust by now you realize what it does."

Dumbledore walked over to the two. He looked over at Y/N coldly. They rolled their eyes at him.

"Let me give you a clue." He turned to Harry, "The happiest man on earth would look into the mirror and see only himself, exactly as he is."

"So then, it shows is what we want?" Harry clarified

"Whatever we want." Y/N nodded

"Quiet, Y/N." Dumbledore ordered, "Yes, and no. It shows us nothing more or less than the deepest and most desperate desires of our hearts. Now you, Harry, who have never known your family, you see them standing beside you."

Y/N had enough of Dumbledore and walked out the room. They bumped into Mcgonagall.

"Hey Minnie." Y/N sighed

"You should get to bed Y/N." Mcgonagall ushered them to their common room

A few days passed and everyone was back at Hogwarts. The group was in the library now.

"I had you looking in the wrong section. How could I be so stupid!" Hermionie dropped a big book on the table, "I checked this out weeks ago for a bit of light reading."

"This is light?" Ron asked nervously

Y/N laughed at him.

"Of course, here it is!" Hermionie opened the book to one page, "Nicholas Flamel is the only known maker of the Philosopher's Stone."

"The what?" The boys said at the same time

"Honestly, don't you two read?" Hermionie rolled her eyes

"The Philosopher's Stone is a legendary substance with astonishing powers. It can transform any kind of metal into pure gold and also produces the Elixir of Life, which will make the drinker immortal." Y/N explained

"Immortal?" Ron repeated

"It means you'll never die." Hermionie explained

"I know what it means!" He nearly yelled

Harry had to 'shush' him.

"The only Stone currently in existence belongs to Mr. Nicholas Flamel." She continued reading, "That's what Fluffy is guarding. That's what's under the trap door. The Philosopher's Stone."

Everyone shared some looks.

"We should talk with Hagrid." Y/N decided

"Why?" Ron asked

"He spilt some secrets." Harry remembered, "Maybe we could ask about more."

Y/N nodded. The group practically ran to Hagrid's hut later during the day. Harry knocked on the door.

"Hagrid!" Harry started

"Don't wish to be rude, but I'm in no state to entertain today." Hagrid stopped him

Hagrid closed the door

"We know about the Philosopher's Stone." Harry, Ron, and Hermione said at the same time

He opened the door again. Hagrid let them all in and sat down.

"Did you tell them anything?" Hagrid asked Y/N

"They asked what it was so I told them." Y/N shrugged

"We think Snape is trying to steal it." Harry said

The group undid their cloaks.

"Are you still on about him?" Hagrid asked

"We know he's after it but don't know why." Ron spoke

"Snape is one of the teachers protecting the Stone. He won't steal it." Hagrid stopped him

Hagrid continued to spill more secrets about the Stone. A rattling noise came from the pot behind him. He pulled out a hot egg. Hagrid placed it down on the table and it started to crack.

"Hagrid." Harry looked at the egg, "What exactly is that?"

"That? It's, umm." Hagrid stuttered

"You have a dragon?!" Y/N leaned closer to the egg

He explained how he got it as a dragon popped out the egg.

"That's not just a dragon. That's a Norwegian Ridgeback!" Ron exclaimed, "Our brother Charlie works with these in Romania, Y/N!"

"I know what dragon this is, Ron." Y/N crossed their arms

"Isn't he beautiful?" Hagrid smiled

Y/N held their hand out for the dragon and it climbed on their hand.

"Hello little guy. What's a good name for him?" Y/N asked Hagrid

"Hmm." Hagrid thought, "Norbert."

They placed the dragon, Norbert, down on the table. Norbert sneezed out fire and Hagrid's beard caught on fire. Hagrid patted the fire off and looked out the window.

"Who's that?" Hagrid squinted his eyes

The group looked out the window to see Draco Malfoy.

"Malfoy." Harry spat

"Oh, dear." Hagrid mumbled

"We should leave." Y/N stood up, "Have a good night, Hagrid."

Y/N shoved the group out the door. They all headed back to the school.
