Harry Potter: Harry Slytherin

Section 6 (new)

The entire rest of the year really flew by. The group had nearly forgotten about the stone and spent a lot of time studying. They were all sitting down for breakfast, in the last week of term. There was excited chattering all around. Students couldn't wait to go home for the summer.

Draco smirks. "I'm sure I managed to pass my end term exams." he states, picking at some toast. "They won't tell us till the last day but at least for now the classes are done and over with."

"Yeah I am also glad we got all the learning finished for the year. Now I can focus on getting a little more spell practice in before we head home." faith says. She looks up at the professors table. "Wait... where is dumbledore?"

Harry and draco look at the table up front and realize Faith was right. "That is odd." Snape walks past and Harry stops him. "Excuse me professor."

Snape turns to harry. "What?"

"Well I was only wondering. Where has dumbledore gone?" Harry asks.

Snape nods. "If you were needing to speak to him I'm afraid he isn't here. He received a letter from the mystery urging him to go there. He should be back to see everyone off though. I'm sure your questions can wait." snape turns away and heads up to the teachers table.

Faith smirks. "That means he isn't in the castle. We could go after the stone."

"Snape might have the same idea." Harry nods.

"If we go tonight we can get it before him." faith suggests. "Just think what we could do with something like that."

"I'm not too keen on living forever." Harry mumbles. "We are too young to be worried about something like that."

"Well I'm not." faith replies. "But it isn't for me. My dad is sick. They said he might not get better. But if I had the stone. I could heal him."

"Well that's different." Harry nods. "Healing the sick is far more noble than trying to live forever."

"It'll be dangerous." draco grumbles. "I won't go."

"Ok well we will talk about more in the common room." Harry suggests.

They finish breakfast and head to the common room where they begin packing. It would be nice to have an early start to the packing to make sure nothing gets left behind and to beat out the other students who would no doubt be doing their packing just before hopping on the train.

Somehow faith manages to convince Harry and Draco that she is going to get the stone by herself and that if they didn't join her she wouldn't ever let them live it down. She also explains that she could die doing this and that it would be their fault for not helping her. So it eventually came to be decided that they would all three go try to find the stone.

After nightfall the three krept out under harry's cloak. They made their way down the halls and up the stairs toward the third floor.

They broke into the room with the dog and realized it was asleep. There was a harp nearby playing a peaceful tune.

"Looks like somebody beat us here." Draco mumbles. "We don't stand a chance of getting the stone if somebody is already down there."

"Well maybe it will be like a maze and we could still find it first." Faith says. She leaves the cloak and starts to push the large dogs paw out of the way. "Are you two gonna make me do all the heavy lifting?"

They help her move the paw and she pulls the door open. "Come on, before the dog wakes up." She leaps down through the door.

"You nut case!" Draco hisses. "You are going to get us killed!"
