(Y/N) Pov

  We all looked around shocked at the view of a giant wizard's chess board, I mean it's not something you see every day.

Harry: There's the door!

I looked in the direction he pointed and saw the door he was talking about, we walked to it but the pawns moved and crossed their swords blocking our path, we took a few steps back and they went to their original position.

Hermione: What do we do now?

(Y/N): I think it's obvious isn't it, we're going to have to play our way across the room.

Ron: I agree with (Y/N) on this one, it's the only way that we're going to get close to that door.

(Y/N): Finally someone that actually listens to what I'm saying! Even if I was right the other times too.

Seeing this chess board reminds me of Draco and when he taught me how to play it over Christmas break and also reminded me of how angry he was going to be with me once he finds out about this, but I love him and our friendship so I wouldn't have it any other way. I only realized I was smiling when I noticed the other three looking at me weirdly.

(Y/N): What?! How about you stop looking at me and start thinking of which position you want to play.

They immediately stopped looking, I don't know if it was  because of my angry tone or my fiery glare but I was grateful when they started discussing the roles.

Ron: Harry, you take the empty bishop's square. Hermione you'll be the queen-side castle, (Y/N) you'll be the other bishop. As for me, I'll be a knight.

I didn't have any complaints about it so I just went straight to the bishop's place.

Hermione: What happens now?

(Y/N): White moves first but after that we play.

The first white piece moved and we were all nervous but if I wanted to prove that it wasn't Snape that was trying to steal the Philosopher's Stone and if we wanted to stop the person that was after it from getting it, we would have to play even if we got hurt and apparently I wasn't the only one that thought that we could get hurt.

Hermione: Ron, (Y/N) you don't suppose this is going to be like real wizard's, do you?

Ron: You there D-5.

The pawn started to move to D-5 and once it got there the white piece took out his swords and slammed them into our piece shattering it into pieces, after it happened I could feel my heart thundering in my chest so I took a deep breath and thought of Draco, cause I knew that remembering him would make me feel calm enough to play and make it out alive.

I looked at the others and I saw that Hermione had flinched and that Ron and Harry had a frightened look on their faces.

(Y/N): Yes, Hermione. I think that after that demonstration we have all realized that this will be exactly like wizard's chess but we don't have another option if we want to get to that door.

They all looked at me, still scared but knowing I was right. After that it was just Ron giving instructions and chess pieces turning into a pile of ashes and fragments.

Ron: Castle to E-4! Pawn to C-3!

Almost all the pieces had been destroyed and when the Queen was destroying a Castle a part of it almost hit Harry, I'll admit that I did get a bit concerned but then I realized that Draco had said that Harry had been talking mean stuff about me behind my back and remembered of all the other things he had said to my face so I decided to not show any emotion, well not until he apologizes cause I don't know if he doesn't realize or he doesn't want to admit but he changed and not necessarily for the best. When I looked at  the position of the chess pieces that were still on the board I realized something and for some incredible coincidence Harry realized the same thing because he's eyes widened and he looked at Ron.

Harry: Wait a minute.

Ron: You understand right Harry, (Y/N). Once I make my move the queen will take me. Then one of you is free to check the king.

Harry: No. Ron, no!

Hermione: What is it?

(Y/N): He's going to sacrifice himself.

Hermione: No, there must be another way!

Ron: Do you want to stop Snape from getting that Stone or not?

Because of the situation we were in, I decided to not say anything about the fact that he said that I was Snape that was trying to steal the Stone. Like what do they have against the man, I know he's not really friendly with people from Gryffindor or any other house except Slytherin, but come on it's not a crime to not like the other houses and to give special treatment to the people that are on the same house as you once were, just because the Slytherins have a bad reputation cause of Voldmort, that doesn't mean we're all evil and that everything bad that happens it's our fault.

Ron: (Y/N), Harry it's you guys that need to go on. I know it. Not me. Not Hermione. You two.

After Ron said that, I could feel Harry getting more determined to go on, so we prepared ourselves to what's going to happen next.

Ron: Knight to H-3.

Ron's Knight started moving and got in front of the King.

Ron: Check.

The tension inside the room was unbelievable and it was making me feel more nervous than I had ever been in my life.

The Queen turned around and got closed to Ron, she stabbed the Knight making Ron fall from it and turning it into pieces.

Harry: Ron!

(Y/N): Hermione, no, don't move! Don't forget, we're still playing.

Harry moved and stopped in front of the King.

Harry: Checkmate.

The King's sword fell putting an end to the game, we all ran to Ron's side to see if he was alright.

Harry: Take care of Ron. Then go to the owlery, send a message to Dumbledore. Ron's right. (Y/N) and I need to go on.

Hermione: You two will be okay. You're great wizards. Truly.

I gave her a half smile, I guess she is not as bad as I thought she would be or maybe this is just the adrenaline that's coursing through my veins talking.

Harry: Not as good as you.

Hermione: Me? Books and cleverness. There are more important things. Friendship and bravery so you guys be careful.

Harry nodded while I just stayed quiet, he got up and looked at me, we went ahead and through the door, after we went through it, this horrible feeling started to crawl in my stomach making me, not scared because I'm really hard to scare, but with a feeling that I was about to discover something that would make me doubt who I've been all my life.
