The Noble House Black.

Part 4

Leo's Pov. 

Months Later. 

"And in this daily reminder of Keeping up with Leonidas Black it's day I don't care anymore.... around me I see the usual water, snake heads.... ow wait a real giant snake! Empty sandwich bags..... ow and would you look stone upon stone upon stone!" I yell at the top of my lungs as I try to get the chains off, I don't know how long I've been here.... long? Weeks? Months?! YEARS!? 

A basilisk from all the things it was a basilisk!  It took me and than dragged me to this chamber and when I woke up I was in chains...... Ginny.... Ginny is the one who opened the chamber she's also the one who's been bringing me clothes, food and water but she.... she can't let me leave it's like something has been taken control of her she comes into the chamber screaming that she doesn't want to and yet she comes...... I-I want to get out....the basilisk isn't that bad of a company but he always wants me to sing for him. A snake the size of well a giant basilisk who complains about me needing to sing for him. 

I-I Just wish to go back home? Where even is home they say the Chamber of Secrets was in Hogwarts but I feel like I'm quite a fall down it. I haven't seen the sunlight in so long..... walked in the forest..... heard mother nag about it, I-I miss them all......... I want to go back and yet I don't know how I can get out of here it's like the chains are exchanted..... and the Basilisk won't let me out so far I'm happy it hasn't eaten or petrified me yet. 

"Sing for me." 

"Will you let me out?" I counter as I've found out that I'm a bloody parselmouth! No wonder I could hear it it's a giant snake! "Even if I wished I could not, I do not hold arms or hands and my bite would kill you." He says and I roll my eyes at the giant snake who's somehow alwasy close to me.... like yeah you took me here now get lost. 

"Why am I here." 

"That I also do not know, I've been here for a thousand years asleep...... until I was awoken." He speaks and I release a sigh as I lean back against the cold... stone stature that's been my pillow since I've been here. 

"Can't you just pull them to snap with your mouth? You know get me out of here and than I will sing all the songs you wish." I try as it looks at me with closed eyes, if it looks at me with them open well I'm a nice stature! "Did we not try? I can not take you out of here young wizard nor can I ignore the orders of my master." He speaks and I release a sigh. 

"My mother always sings me this lullaby..... it brings me comfort." 

"Sing it for me." He says as he lays his head down and I pull my knees towards my chest as I think about mother and well my real mother before the words seem to leave my lips. 

"Where the north wind meets the sea

There's a river full of memory
Sleep, my darling, safe and sound
For in this river all is found.

In her waters, deep and true
Lie the answers and a path for you
Dive down deep into her sound
But not too far or you'll be drowned.

Yes, she will sing to those who'll hear
And in her song, all magic flows
But can you brave what you most fear?
Can you face what the river knows?

Where the north wind meets the sea
There's a mother full of memory
Come, my darling, homeward bound
When all is lost, then all is found." I softly sing before I have to wipe the tear away from my cheek with the sleeve of the hoodie I'm wearing. 

Hearing steps come closer I soon see Ginny walk past me and towards the front of the room where there's a pool of water with well a large statue of Salazar's face. "Ginny! Ginny come on you need to get me out of here.... please.... I won't tell anyone it was you!" I try but it's like the girl is in a trance as she lays this black book down and soon crashes onto the ground making my eyes widen as I shoot forward and try to run for the red-haired girl but not long after I run out of room as the four chains hold me back.
