Chapter 2

The screen shows an 10 year old Sereia sleeping.
Woman: Up. Get up!
Sereia wakes and looks at the door. The Woman is seen knocking on the door of the cupboard unter the stairs. She unlocks the door.
Woman: Now!

Everyone is shocked that their Saviour is sleeping in a cupboard. The hall begins to shake again but worse. Sereia goes to Poseidon and sits down between him and Triton and begins to whisper in Ancient Greek. Dumbledore and Tom seeing this pay attention but can't hear what she says as shes too far from them. "YOU SLEPT IN A CUPBOARD!!!" screams Sirius. Remus looks equally angry while trying to keep Moony under control. "How could you think that is a safe place for her?!" Amelia was writing furiously.

The Woman goes to the Kitchen and closes the door. Sereia puts the light on while sitting up and rubs her eyes. A boy comes running down the stairs but stops and runs a few steps back up and begins to jump, Sereia looks up when dust falls on her.
Boy: Wake up, Cousin! We're going to the zoo!
She opens the door and the boy runs down and laughs as he pushes her back and kicks the door shut before running to the kitchen. Sereia opens the door again and goes to the kitchen while rubbing her head, in clothes far too big on her.

"What are you wearing!" Aphrodite asks shocked " Dudley's old clothes"
"They didn't buy you any new clothes?"
"No"
They look at her shocked

Woman: Here comes the birthday boy.
Man: Happy birthday, son.
Woman: Cook breakfast. And try not to burn anything.
Sereia: Yes, Aunt Petunia.
Sereia goes to the stove and makes bacon. Petunia puts her hands over her son's eyes and leads him to the living room.

"THEY MAKE YOU COOK?!" Scream the demigods, Sereia's friends and family.

Petunia: I want everything to be perfect for my Dudleykins special day.

"Dudleykins" laugh Fred, George, Connor and Travis.

Man: Bring my Coffee girl!
Sereia: Yes, Uncle Vernon
Sereia puts bacon on a plate then goes to make Coffee. Petunia takes her hands off and smiles while Dudley looks shocked at the presents.
Petunia: Aren't they wonderful, darling?
Dudley turns to his father.
Dudley: How many are there?
Vernon: 36! Counted them myself.
Vernon and Petunia smile at Dudley so they don't see Sereia rolling her eyes and shaking her head as she pours Coffee into a cup. Dudley glares at Vernon.
Dudley: 36! BUT LAST YEAR I HAD 37!
Vernon: B-But s-s-some are b-bigger than last year's.
Dudley: I don't care how big they are!
Petunia: Here's what we're gonna do. When we go out, we're going to buy you two new presents. How's that pumpkin?
Dudley: Alright then.
Sereia looks at him with disbelief and disgust as he went to the table. After eating they go outside to the car.
Petunia: It should be a lovely day at the zoo. I'm looking forward to it.
When Dudley is in the car, Vernon closes the door and puts his keys in Sereia's face.
Vernon: I'm warning you now, girl. Any funny business, any at all and you won't have any meals for weeks. Get in.

Many glare at Vernon or look at Sereia shocked.

At the zoo they go to the Reptile house. They go and stand in front the enclosure of the biggest snake there.
Dudley: Make it move.
Vernon knocks on the glass window.
Vernon: Move!
Dudley hits the glass hard making Vernon look slightly nervous while Petunia smiles.
Dudley: MOVE!

The Slytherin's glare at Dudley on the screen.

Sereia: He's asleep!
Dudley: He's boring.
The Dursley's leave to at the other snakes while Sereia stays.
Sereia: ~Sorry about him. He doesn't understand what it's like, laying there day after day watching people press there ugly faces in on you~

"Are you comparing yourself to a snake?" asks someone amused "Yes"

The snake lifts its head and winks at her. She looks around if anyone saw.
Sereia: ~Can you hear me?~
The snake nods and lifts its body to be at the same hight.

Everyone who didn't know are far too shocked to say anything. A few look at her scared. "SHE'S A PARSELMOUTH! SHE'S EVIL!" screams Umbridge. Hecate looks at her with a glare while the rest of the gods looks confused "Parseltongue is seen as a symbol of an evil wizard" they nod.

Sereia: ~It's just i've never talked to a snake before. Do you... I mean do you talk to people often?~
The snake shakes her head.
Sereia: ~You're from Burma, aren't you? Was it nice there? Do you miss your family?~
The snake looks at the sign next to them. She looks as well.

London - Zoo
Conservation - Action
Bred in captivity

Sereia: ~I see, that's me as well. I never knew my parents either~
Dudley: Mummy, Dad. You won't believe what the snake is doing.
Dudley runs over and pushes Sereia to the ground and leans on the glass. Sereia glares at him and the glass disappears making him fall in and in the water at the bottom, he turns to the snake who watches him before turning and slithers out of the enclosure. The snake stops in front of Sereia.
Snake: ~Thankss~
Sereia: ~Anytime~

Everyone laughs.

The snake leaves making people run and scream. Sereia looks after the snake till she can't she it anymore.
Man: SNAKE!
Dudley stands up and puts his hand out to grab unto something and becomes scared when his hand touches the glass. He bangs on the glass and screams when he sees his parents.
Dudley: Mum! Mummy! Help me!
Petunia: AHH! My darling boy! How did you get in there? Who did this? How did you get in there? Is there a snake?
Sereia laughs which Vernon notices and looks at her making her stop and look scared.

"He better not hurt you" says Poseidon, Sirius and Remus. Many wonder, why Poseidon cares and how she knows him.
