CHAPTER TWENTY-SEVEN: A KISS
"YOU FIVE REALIZE, OF COURSE that in the past few hours, you broken perhaps a dozen school rules?!" Dumbledore questioned as the golden five stood there in shame, having their heads down.
"Yes, sir." Harry replied.
"There are sufficient and the Duster have you five expelled," Dumbledore continued as the group exchanged looks with each other.
"Yes, sir," the group said in unison.
"Therefore, it is only fitting that you five receive... special awards for services to the school." The group exchanged excited looks, smiling widely as Ron thanked the head master. "Now, Mr. Weasley or Mr. Lupin, if you would have an owl deliver these release papers to Azkaban. I believe we want our gamekeeper back." Ron and Atlas left Professor Dumbledore's office with a smile on their face. Dumbledore turned towards the duo (Adrian wasn't there because he was forced to be with his father). "Harry, first, I want to thank you, Harry. You must have shown me real loyalty down in the chamber, nothing but that could have called force for you and um, second, I sense that something is troubling you, am I right Harry?"
Lily looked at Harry worryingly as Harry paused before speaking, "It's just... you see sir, I couldn't help but notice certain things and certain similarities between Tom Riddle and me." Lily held Harry's hand, rubbing it comfortably.
"I see, well, you can speak Parseltongue, Harry why? Because Lord Voldemort can speak Parseltongue. If I'm not mistaken, Harry, he transferred some of his powers to you, the night he gave you that scar," Dumbledore explained, Harry held her hand tightly as Lily continued rubbing his hand comfortably.
"Voldemort transferred some of his powers to me?" Harry questioned as Dumbledore nodded.
"Intentionally, but yes." Professor Dumbledore affirmed.
"So, the sorting hat was right, I belong in Slytherin." Harry said in realization, Lily stood in silence taking all of the information she and Harry has just received, but she couldn't pay attention to what had Dumbledore was saying, all she could think about is Hermione who was still petrified and Hermione still haven't known about Lily kissing her on the head or Lily having feelings for her. But then again, Lily didn't know Hermione had feelings for her as well.
"It's true, Harry. You possess many of the qualities that Voldemort himself prizes. Determination, resourcefulness, and if I may say so, a certain disregard for the rules, especially like Lily and Atlas." Lily and Harry grinned in unison, which in fact, Lily hasn't pull a lot of pranks this year, but she has pull a couple with Atlas, sometimes Harry joined them. It was fun for them, they got caught and would run away from McGonagall who only got Deja vu of James, Sirius, and Remus. "Why then the sorting hat place you into Slytherin? Like Lily could've have been sorted into Hufflepuff or Gryffindor."
