[Dreams]

(With Harry)

It had been decided that Sirius would go with Harry. The green eyed elf wasn't upset by it. He knew his parents were worried and considering his past it was more than understandable. Plus he loved that he had people that cared for him. It also helped that not many wanted to mess with Harry. Not only did he prove that he wasn't going to put up with being a victim anymore but the fact that his mate was a war seasoned vampire didn't help.

"Ready?" Sirius asked a few minutes before they were meant to leave.

"I am." Harry said.

"Me too." Jasper confirmed.

"Good." He nodded. [I just hope Harry's luck doesn't come into play.]

He wasn't sure his heart could handle his son being in danger. So far it was peaceful and Sirius wanted it to stay that way. He mentally shook his head clear of those thoughts as he grabbed the port-key. Harry and Jasper grabbed on.

"Courage." Sirius said and the three were whisked away.

They ended a couple feet away from Hogsmeade. They walked to the castle. Minerva and Severus met them at the gate. The feline animagus hugged Harry before hugging Sirius. Harry hugged Severus. He returned the hug stiffly. He was still not used to hugging the boy he used to hate.

"It's so good to see you both." Minerva said. "How are the twins?" She asked as she shook Japser's hand.

"Perfect." Sirius and Harry answered at the same time.

"Of course they are." She laughed. [So good to see them both happy.]

"Just remember to send me a letter the day they turn eleven." Severus said.

"Why?" Sirius asked in confusion.

"So that I can retire." He answered bluntly.

"Of course." He said as they all laughed.

"I'm not joking. I have taught all seven children Arthur sired. The worst were his twins. I'm sure your twins will be worse than their uncles. The reason is that they are part Weasley, part Black, and part Lupin." He shivered as he thought about it. "Not to mention their older brother will have rubbed off on him."

"Hey!" Two people shouted in offense.

"He's not wrong." Minerva said to Sirius and Harry.

"I know but he didn't have to say it." Harry pouted.

"Yeah." His dad agreed.

"We should get going." Severus said before he turned and walked towards the castle.

"He's correct." Minerva said and soon they followed.

The five entered the castle and made their way to the third floor girls bathroom. To Harry's relief Myrtle wasn't there. It wasn't that he disliked her, it was that she made him feel uncomfortable.

"She moved on." Minerva said.

"What?" They looked at the witch in confusion.

"Myrtle. After you defeated Voldemort and Dumbledore was arrested she moved on. According to Nick she had justice for her murder and decided to go bug her former bully." She answered.

"That's nice. I'm glad." Harry said.

"Indeed. Ready?" She asked the teen.

"Yeah." He walked over to the sink and looked at the snake. Open.

Just like before the sinks moved apart and revealed an opening. They all looked down. Harry gained a thoughtful look. After the event he had wondered something and now was his chance to see whether or not he was correct.

Stairs. He hissed.

To everyone's surprise and amazement stairs had appeared. Jasper had been filled in and Severus and Minerva had been told what happened. No one mentioned stairs. They looked at Harry.

"I wanted to see if I could. I noticed that almost everything down there seemed to respond to parseltongue. I just couldn't imagine Salazar Slytherin nor Riddle jumping into the pipe." He said sheepishly.

"Good idea." Severus complimented. "I can't imagine it either."

"Thanks." Harry blushed. "Well let's go. Just remember to be careful. Thanks to Lockhart it's unstable."

"We know Harry. You told us." Jasper used his gift to help calm his mate down.

"I know. Sorry but it's harder than I thought." He admitted.

"We can still stop here." Minerva reminded him.

"No. I want to do this." He said in determination.

"Okay." She said.

They walked down the stairs. They all examined the grimy area. Four of them gasped when they spotted the shed snake skin. They estimated the skin to be at least twenty feet long. That meant the basilisk was even larger when Harry fought it. Harry was surprised that the skin was still there and in the same condition as it was when he was twelve. The four turned and looked at Harry.

"What?" He looked at them in confusion.

"You are never leaving my sight again." Sirius said as he hugged his son close.

"Mine either." Jasper agreed.

"If it makes you feel better most of my 'adventures' here were encouraged by Dumbledore, Granger, Ronald, and Ginerva." He said.

"No. That doesn't make me feel better." Sirius said.

"I tried." He shrugged. "Up ahead is the collapse."

They walked until they came to a closed off area. There was a tiny hole that Ron had dug out. Harry would no longer be able to fit through there. It made the elf realize just how small he had been back then. Harry and Jasper stepped back and let the others work. They couldn't just make the rocks disappear without causing a bigger collapse. Instead they were moving rocks and turning them into columns to help with the support. As they worked Tonks and Kingsley arrived with a person in a robe that covered them from head to toe. Harry realized the person was an unspeakable.

"Wotcher' Harry." Tonks grinned at him.

The elf smiled and hugged her and then Kingsley. "Hey Tonks, Kingsley."

"Harry." The large auror hugged him.

"Hello again Jasper. Keeping my little brother out of trouble?" The metamorphmagus asked as she stuck her tongue out at Harry.

"Hey!" He pouted.

"I am." Jasper smirked.

"Don't play along." His pout deepened.

"Sorry darlin'." He kissed the pout.

"Liar." He muttered.

"I'm sorry but could you keep it down. This spell requires my full attention." The unspeakable said.

"Okay." The four said.

They were quiet as the person worked. They were making sure the area was secured and safe. No one wanted to have a piece of Hogwarts collapse, especially on them. It took a few hours before the unspeakable stopped.

"All done." He told them.

Harry led the group to the next door. They soon spotted the wall that had two serpents carved into it. To Harry their emerald eyes still looked alive to him.

Open. He hissed.

Just like they had done years ago the serpents parted as the wall cracked open. The halves slid out of sight. Harry took a deep breath before entering. He held onto both his dad's hand and his mate's hand. Flashbacks to that night flashed before his eyes. Luckily they were chased away as cold hands touched his face.

"It's okay love. You're safe." Jasper assured him.

"I-i know. It's been five years and the basilisk is dead. What hit me so hard was the fact that it looks like it recently died." He said.

"Mr. Potter is correct. Odd. The corpse should be decaying. Hmm I wonder if there is a preservation charm in effect." The unspeakable said.

"Indeed. Harry, since you are the one to kill it you have a claim on it. May I harvest it for ingredients?" Severus asked as his eyes stared at the beast.

"Sure." He shrugged.

"We should look around." Kingsley said.

"You're right." Tonks said.

Harry, Jasper, and Sirius hung back as the rest searched the chamber. The vampire hugged his mate close as he stared at the large snake. He couldn't believe it. It had to have been at least twenty six feet. His poor mate faced that when he was twelve. Harry had been correct when he said he was lucky to have survived. The golden eyed empath thanked Fawkes for saving Harry.

"I can't believe you faced that thing." Sirius said. "You were twelve."

"I know. My only regret was going to Lockhart. I shouldn't have listened to Ron and listened to my gut. My plan was to tell Minerva. Ron said Lockhart since that phoney said he knew where the chamber was." He hated how dumb he had been.

"Never leaving my sight again." Sirius repeated.

"Mine either." Jasper's grip tightened.

"I'm fine with that." Harry said.

"Good." His mate kissed him.

Severus had entered Salazar Slytherin's mouth. He soon exited shock. He motioned for all of them to go over to him.

"What's wrong?" Minerva asked.

"Once you get past the next the basilisk made there is another room. It's Salazar's lost library." He told them.

Only Jasper was confused. The rest stared at the potion master in shock. There had been rumors of the Salazar's library but it had never been found. After he left Hogwarts his chamber had been searched. Nothing remained. The rumor was that the library would be filled with books written by the man. The books would contain all his knowledge on potions as well as potions he had invented and never released. Some books also contained information on parselmagic and snakes. Many believed the library didn't exist but now they knew where it was.

"Mr. Potter." The unspeakable looked at him.

"Yes?" He looked at the person.

"You are the Slytherin heir, correct?" They asked.

"Yes." He confirmed.

"May I have permission to enter? I want to make sure it isn't booby trapped as well as get a chance to look through the books. I would love to see the knowledge that was once lost to us." They said.

"Of course. I plan on giving the potion books to Severus anyway. As for the parselmagic I want to translate those and publish anything that isn't evil." They said.

"Thank you." They bowed to him before entering.

"You're giving me the potion books?" Severus asked in surprise.

"Yes. You would understand them better than me and I know you could make a lot of progress or make new potions with that knowledge." The green eyed teen said.

"Thank you." He turned but Harry saw how his eyes glistened.

"You're welcome." He nodded.

The unspeakable removed many booby traps. After that the books were removed and placed into a bag. The group finished up and went back upstairs. They went to the headmistress's office. The unspeakable made a log of all the books. It was decided that they would take them back to the ministry. The potion books would be studied and once they finished they would give the books to Severus. Harry would take the rest with him. He would translate them before sending them off to the ministry.

The spells and potions would go through a process to see if they were accepted or if they were banned. If accepted they would then be published. Harry would receive the money since it was his ancestor that created them. After that Harry, Sirius, and Jasper returned home. The chamber was sealed away.
