Heavy snow falls as Harry sat atop one of the towering hills facing Hogwarts, while Hedwig sat on a rock beside him.

"Who am I, Hedwig? What am I?"

Suddenly, Nyra flew past Harry as Hedwig followed after her. Harry smiled happily, knowing her owner was with her.

"You're you, Harry, a wizard. Not a Slytherin or the Heir of Slytherin, but a Gryffindor, a proud and brave one."

Harry turned around just as Gemmalynn took a sit beside him while looking at her home.

"Don't let it bother you, Harry, the looks that the students are giving you." Gemmalynn said and turned to him with a smile. "I believe you and I aren't Salazar's Heir. I believe you're a Gryffindor and I'm Godric's Heir. I may not know the reason why I can speak snake language, but I know who I am."

Harry smiled at Gemmalynn. "You know what, you're really amazing, Gem, honest." he said, truthfully.

Gemmalynn furrowed her eyebrows in confusion. "How so? I'm just Gemmalynn Vell Peer Dumbledore-Gryffindor."

"You are, inside and out. You're not bothered with the looks others are giving you, judging you, doubting you and thinking that maybe you're not the Heir of Gryffindor, but Slytherin. You're brave enough to face it. Strong enough to believe what you think is right." Harry explained as Gemmalynn looked down and smiled shyly. "You really are the Heir of Gryffindor."

Gemmalynn chuckled lightly. "Oh, Harry. You're brave and strong just like me. You're after all sorted in Gryffindor."

"But, not strong or brave enough like you, there is something about you that just seems different from the other Gryffindors, maybe it's because you truly are the Gryffindor Heiress."

Gemmalynn smiled gratefully at Harry. "Thanks, Harry. But, trust me when I tell you that you are sorted in Gryffindor for a reason that neither you or I know, yet. Believe what you think is good and right, do not let anyone judge you for what you believe in just because you're different or believe in something they don't." she said and stood up. "There's a reason why each and every one of us is different. We decide who we wanna be and what we will be in our lives."


While Gemmalynn gazed softly at Hogwarts, Harry's eyes were on her.

"Remember, when everyone seems to be against you, always know that I'm here for you to support you, cheer for you, believe in you and trust you, Harry."

That night in the library, Gemmalynn, Harry, Hermione and Ron were studying. Gemmalynn sat beside Harry, while Hermione and Ron sat across from them.
