The snake hover's for a moment. Before slumping to the floor. I move out of the way. Harry offers his hand to Justin.
"What are you playing at?" Justin asked
Terrified, Justin backs away. Harry looks around the room. Draco looks shocked, Seamus and Neville's eyes glitter with fear. Ginny bolts from the room. Snape waves his wand and the snake vanishes in a puff of black smoke, then he looks at Harry with a look of shrewd and calculation. I grab Harry's hand and pull him off the stage and out of the room.
"Come on. Move. Now." Ron said
Dudley, Harry, Ron, Hermione, and I in the common room talking about what just happened.
"You're a Parselmouth! Why didn't you tell us?" Ron asked
"I'm a what?" Harry asked
"You can talk to snakes." Hermione said
"I know that. I mean, I accidentally set a python on Dudley at the zoo once. But so what? I bet loads of people here can do it. I mean Ana can talk to animals." Harry said
"I knew you let the snake loose." Dudley said
"I can't believe you just told them that." I said
"No. They can't. it's not a very common gift, Harry. Nor is the gift of talking to animals. This is bad." Hermione said
"What's bad? If I hadn't told that snake not to attack Justin-" Harry said
"Oh, that's what you said to it." Ron said
"You were there. You heard me." Harry said
"Yeah, I mean I understood what he said." I said
"That's means you speak it too. Because all I heard was you speaking Parseltongue. Snake language." Ron said
"I spoke a different language? But I didn't realize - how can I speak a language without knowing I can?" Harry asked
"I don't know, Harry. But it sounded like you were egging the snake on or something. It was...creepy." Hermione said
"It did sound very bad." Dudley said
Gryffindors stream into the room, they eye harry warily. Even Seamus, Neville, and Dean walk by without a word. I just glare at their back as they leave.
"What a bunch of COWARDS." I said
"Harry, listen out me. There's a reason the symbol of Slytherin house is a serpent. Salazar Slytherin was a Parselmouth. He could talk to snakes too." Hermione said
"Exactly. And now the whole school's going to think you're his great-great-great grandson or something." Ron said
"Actually Harry is a descendant of the one of the founding four." I said
"Really which one?" Harry said
"Gryffindor." I said
"That makes sense." Dudley said
"But I'm not a related to Slytherin." Harry said
"He lived a thousand years ago. For all we know... you could be." Hermione said
