...I have not had any plans with Hogwarts as you are there. I have heard whispers that someone has been using the arcane spells so watch out. If you hear anything more of if she sees the person then inform me and I will plan a trip to Hogwarts. Farewell, Marvolo

Harry puts down the letter getting confirmation that he and Marvolo are the only living relation to Salazar was a blessing. That just means someone in this school was posing at the Slytherin Heir, and all of Voldemort's trinkets were collected. Harry sighed as he left the dorm room to meet up with Theo and Draco for breakfast.

Since Halloween feast whispers followed around the three, they were their first true, but no one wanted to outright ask what was true or not. After their last class of the day, Harry led the three to the second entry of the Chamber of Secrets.

"What are we doing standing at a blank wall?" Draco asked while looking around.

"Hogwarts likes to move things around so today the door is here."

"Oh so this is where you wander off to."

Harry nodded while hissing a password and then stepping back seeing the stone shift to reveal a passageway. Together with Harry leading they went down further past the dungeons and into the Chamber of Secrets. Harry couldn't help but laugh when he said the name of the place, Draco and Theo both were frozen with awe. For the rest of the hour, the trio hung around the place while Harry wrote another letter to Marvolo.

The trio made their way back to their dorms late into the night after Harry had sent his letter off. When Morning came, Harry already had a letter delivered to him from Marvolo as the house elf left he read it finding that the man had all of his Horcruxes accounted for. He then went through his routine waking the other two when he was done.

"Woo! Go Harry!"

Harry huffed as he heard Theo and Draco in the stands; shaking his head he did another lap around the pitch waiting for Flints que to start practice for the night. Which Slytherins practiced through various warm ups and runs getting ready for their next game which was only a week away. Against Gryffindor.

"Okay, wrap it up!" Flint called to the team as the sun set over the lake. One by one they each meet up in the changing rooms showering before together they head back to the castle.

As the team entered the common room, they found their head of house standing by his portrait. "Flint, my office." The man barked, getting said captain to follow him.

Harry watched as Flint walked up, suddenly Harry's eyes connected with Snape's and he couldn't help but shiver. Something is controlling them he decided but not understanding what could.

Five minutes it was till Flint came out furious, he paused as he saw everyone watching him. Harry saw the captain straighten himself up. "It has been decided that Harry will not be on the team this season but a second position. I have argued, and all I could agree on was that. I apologize, Harry, but your broom must be handed to me."

"But why?"

Flint sighed, "according to Professor Snape he doesn't feel you should be a part of the main team. And trust me I asked who. Something is definitely going this year for that's the third professor I have heard to say something like that." He added stopping Harry from speaking. Dejectedly Harry made his way to his dorm room closing the curtains, he needed to go through and sort everything that had happened.

As it turns out Harry ended up playing as a seeker for Slytherin that Saturday as the other player got injured somehow. It was a glorious morning. The teams were rowdy with the help of the full arena around them. Harry with a bright smile flew around the pitch looking for the elusive gold bird. Towards the half ways the Slytherins were in the lead, and Harry was out of the way when he had to dive out of the way of a bludger.

Frantic Harry flies off in the opposite direction being chased by the same bludger. Going around the itch there was no losing the bludger, someone was trying to kill him again. Huffing Harry spots the golden Snitch and chases after it with the bludger on his tail. As Harry reached for the snitch the blunger snapped his arm in half breaking it. Holding in place Harry reached out with his opposite hand clutching the golden snitch. Slytherin Won was cheered by the speaker.

Still however, that didn't stop the bludger from coming after Harry. With his team's help, when they noticed the bludger was blown up to smithereens. When Harry made it to the changing rooms, his was already healed but the unsettling feeling didn't leave.

Harry made his trip to the library after the teams split up for the afternoon before the party. Turning Harry paused at the noise, it was hissing being drawn to it Harry followed it. When it disappeared Harry seemed to wake up from something and found Colin Creevey and Sir Nick both petrified.
