*Next day*
After classes, we were all in the great hall, where Professor Lockhart set up a dueling club meeting.
"Due to recent events, Professor Dumbledore has allowed me to start this dueling club and teach you all how to defend yourselves" Lockhart says.
Almost every student in the school was interested in the dueling club. "There is also my assistant, Professor Snape" Lockhart says, as Snape gets onto the platform.
Well this should be interesting.
"Don't worry, you'll all have your potions teacher when I'm through with him" Lockhart says.
Lockhart shows everyone that, before a duel, you must bow to each other. "1.. 2.. 3" Lockhart says.
"Expelliarmus!" Snape says.
Lockhart flies backwards and lands on the hard platform. He groans in pain before standing up.
He walks back over and says "It was great to show the students that, but I think it was pretty obvious what you were about to do."
"Perhaps you should first teach the students how to block unfriendly spells" Snape says.
"Alright let's have a couple volunteers. Potter, Weasley" Lockhart says.
Harry and Ron stand up, but Snape says "Weasley's wand is broken, Potter will be sent to the hospital wing in a match box."
Ron sits back down. "How about someone from my own house? Malfoy, perhaps?" Snape asks.
Draco steps onto the other side of the platform. Harry and Draco bow to each other.
"Scared Pottah?" Draco asks.
"You wish" Harry says.
"Now you will both try to disarm one another, and only disarm. We don't want any accidents" Lockhart says.
I can tell they both wanted to do more than disarm one another, if they could, they would probably kill each other.
"3...2..." Lockhart starts counting, but Draco hits Harry with a spell on 2. Harry flies backwards and lands on the platform.
Ooh that had to hurt.
Harry stands up and points his wand at Draco.
"I said only to disarm!" Lockhart says.
Harry hits Draco with a spell, causing him to fly backwards. Snape made Draco stand up again. Draco sent a snake towards Harry.
"Don't worry Potter I'll get rid of it for you" Snape says.
"No let me" Lockhart says.
Lockhart tries a spell to get rid of the snake, but it doesn't work. The snake turns to me and starts to hiss. I wasn't scared of snakes, but the people around me were. They all backed away.
Harry started making weird noises, and the snake turned to him. He was talking to the snake?
How is he talking to the snake?
The snake turned to me again, and hissed at me more. Harry said something to the snake, and it backed away from me.
Snape got rid of the snake and everyone was staring at Harry in shock and fear. Me, Harry, Hermione, and Ron all walk out of the meeting.
We go to the Gryffindor common room. "Harry, you didn't tell us you were a parselmouth" Ron says.
"A what?" Harry asks.
"It means you can talk to snakes" Hermione explains.
"Oh yeah. I sent a snake on my cousin once, by accident" Harry says.
"Harry, what were you saying to the snake?" Hermione asks.
"To stay away from the students" Harry says.
"It didn't sound like it" Ron says.
"Well I was. It would've attacked y/n if I hadn't told it not to" Harry says.
"It sounded like you were egging it on though, Harry" Hermione says.
