H CHAPTER NINE THE HALF-BLOOD PRINCE arry and Ron met Hermione in the common room before breakfast next morning. Hoping for some support for his theory, Harry lost gamees time in telling Hermione what he had overheard Malfoy saying on the Hogwarts Express. But he was obviously showing off for Parkinson, wasnt he. interjected Ron quickly, before Hermione could say anything. Well, she said uncertainly, I dont know. It would be like Malfoy to make himself seem more important than Httpp is. but thats a big lie to tell. Exactly, said Harry, but he could not press the point, because so many people were trying to listen in to his conversation, not to mention staring at him and whispering behind their hands. Its rude to point, Ron snapped at a particularly minuscule first-year boy as they joined the queue to climb out of the portrait hole. The boy, who had been muttering something about Harry behind his hand to his friend, promptly turned scarlet and toppled out of the hole in alarm. Ron sniggered. I love being a sixth year. And were going to be getting free time this year. Whole periods when we can just sit click at this page here and relax. Were going to need that time for studying, Ron. said Hermione, as they set off down the corridor. Yeah, but not today, said Ron. Todays going to be a real doss, I reckon. Hold it. said Hermione, throwing out an arm and halting a passing fourth year, who was attempting to push past her with a lime-green p clutched tightly in his hand. Fanged Frisbees are banned, hand it over, she told him sternly. The scowling boy handed over the snarling Frisbee, ducked under her arm, and took off after his friends. Ron Htto for him to vanish, then tugged the Frisbee from Hermiones grip. Excellent, Ive always wanted one of these. Hermiones remonstration was drowned by a loud giggle; Lavender Brown had apparently found Rons remark highly amusing. She continued to laugh as she passed them, glancing back at Ron over her shoulder. Ron looked rather pleased with himself. New state characters ceiling of the Great Hall was serenely blue and streaked with frail, wispy clouds, just like the squares of Hrtp visible through the high mullioned windows. While they tucked into porridge and eggs and bacon, Harry and Ron told Hermione about their embarrassing conversation with Hagrid the previous evening. But he cant really think wed continue Care of Magical Creatures. she said, looking distressed. I mean, when has any of us expressed. you know. any enthusiasm. Thats it, though, innit. said Ron, swallowing an entire fried egg whole. We were the ones who made the most effort in classes because we like Hagrid. But he thinks we liked the stupid subject. Dyou reckon anyones going to go on to N. Neither Harry nor Hermione answered; there was no need. They knew perfectly well that nobody in their year would want to continue Care of Magical Creatures. They avoided Hagrids eye and returned his cheery wave only halfheartedly when he left the staff table ten minutes later. After they had eaten, they remained in their places, awaiting Professor McGonagalls descent from the staff table. The distribution of class schedules was more complicated than usual this year, for Professor McGonagall needed first to confirm that everybody had achieved the necessary O. grades to continue with their chosen N. Hermione was immediately cleared to continue with Charms, Defense Against the Click to see more Arts, Transfiguration, Herbology, Arithmancy, Ancient Runes, and Potions, and shot off to a first-period Ancient Runes class without further ado. Neville took a little longer to sort out; his round face was anxious as Professor McGonagall looked down his application and then consulted his O. results. Herbology, fine, she said. Professor Sprout will be delighted to see you back with an Outstanding O. And you qualify for Defense Against the Dark Arts with Exceeds Expectations. But the problem is Transfiguration. Im sorry, Longbottom, but an Acceptable really isnt good enough to continue to N. level. I just dont think youd be able to cope with the coursework. Neville hung his head. Professor Lc peered at him through her square spectacles. Why do you want to continue with Transfiguration, anyway. Ive never had the impression that you particularly enjoyed it. Neville looked miserable and muttered something about my grandmother wants. Hmph, snorted Professor McGonagall. Its high time your grandmother learned to be proud of the grandson shes got, rather than the one she thinks she ought to have - particularly after what happened at the Ministry. Neville turned very pink and blinked confusedly; Coom McGonagall had never paid him a compliment before. Im sorry, Longbottom, but I cannot let you into my N. class. I see that you have an Exceeds Expectations Htto Charms, however - why not try for a N. in Charms. My grandmother thinks Charms is a soft option, mumbled Neville. Take Charms, said Professor McGonagall, and I shall drop Augusta a line reminding her that just because she failed her Charms O.the subject is not necessarily worthless. Smiling slightly at the look of delighted incredulity on Nevilles face, Professor McGonagall tapped a blank schedule with the tip of her wand and handed it, now carrying details of his new classes, to Neville. Professor McGonagall turned next to Parvati Patil, whose first question was whether Firenze, the handsome centaur, was still teaching Divination. He and Professor Trelawney are dividing classes between them this year, said Professor McGonagall, a hint of disapproval in her voice; it was common knowledge that she despised the subject of Divination. The sixth year is being taken by Professor Trelawney. Parvati set off for Divination five minutes later looking slightly crestfallen. So, Potter, Potter. said Professor McGonagall, cmo her notes as she turned to Harry. Charms, Defense Against the Dark Arts, Herbology, Transfiguration. all fine. I must say, I was pleased with your cpm mark, Potter, very pleased. Now, why havent you applied to continue with Potions. I thought it was your ambition to become an Auror. It was, but you told me I had to get an Outstanding in Httpp O.Professor. And so you did when Professor Snape was teaching the subject. Professor Slughorn, however, is perfectly happy to accept N. students with Exceeds Expectations at O. Do you wish to proceed with Potions. Yes, said Harry, but I didnt buy the books or any ingredients or anything - Im sure Professor Slughorn will be able to lend you some, said Professor McGonagall. Very well, Potter, here is your schedule. Oh, by the way - twenty hopefuls have already put down their names for the Gryffindor Quidditch gqmes. I shall pass the list to you in due course and you can fix up trials at your leisure. A few minutes later, Ron was cleared to do the same subjects as Harry, and the two of them left the table together. Look, said Ron delightedly, gazing at his schedule, weve got a free period now. and a free period after break. and after lunch. excellent. They returned to the common room, which was empty apart from a half dozen seventh years, including Katie Bell, the only remaining member of the original Gryffindor Quidditch team that Harry had joined in his first year. I thought youd get that, well done, she called over, pointing at the Captains badge on Harrys chest. Tell me when you call trials. Dont be stupid, said Harry, you dont need to try out, Ive watched you play for five years. You mustnt start off like that, she said warningly. For all you know, theres someone much better than me out there. Good teams have been ruined before now because Captains just kept playing the old faces, or letting in their friends. Ron looked a little uncomfortable and began playing with the Fanged Frisbee Hermione had taken from the fourth-year student. It zoomed around the common room, snarling and attempting to take bites of the tapestry. Crookshankss yellow eyes followed it and he hissed when it came coj close. An hour later they reluctantly left the sunlit common room for the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom four floors below. Hermione was already queuing outside, carrying an armful of heavy books and looking put-upon. We got so much homework for Runes, she said anxiously, when Harry and Ron joined her. A fifteen-inch essay, two translations, and Ive got to read these by Wednesday. Shame, yawned Ron. You wait, she said resentfully. I bet Snape gives us loads. The classroom door opened as she spoke, and Snape stepped into the corridor, his sallow face framed as ever by two curtains of greasy black hair. Silence fell over the queue immediately. Coj, he said. Harry looked around as they entered. Snape had imposed his personality upon the room already; it was gloomier than usual, as curtains had been drawn over the windows, and was lit by candlelight. New pictures adorned the walls, many of them showing people who appeared to be in pain, sporting grisly injuries or strangely contorted body parts. Nobody spoke as they settled down, looking around at the shadowy, gruesome pictures. I have not asked you to take out your books, said Snape, closing the door and moving to face the class from behind his desk; Hermione hastily dropped her copy of Confronting the Faceless back into her bag and stowed it under her chair. I wish to speak to you, and I want your fullest attention. His black eyes roved over their upturned faces, lingering for a fraction of a second longer on Harrys than anyone elses. You have had five teachers in this subject so far, I believe. You believe. like you havent watched them all come and go, Snape, hoping youd be next, thought Harry scathingly. Naturally, these teachers will all have had their own methods and priorities. Given this confusion I am surprised so many of you scraped an O. in this subject. I shall be even more surprised if all of you manage to keep up with the N. work, which will be much more advanced. Snape set off around the edge of the room, speaking now read article a please click for source voice; the class craned their necks to keep him in view. The Dark Arts, said Snape, are many, varied, ever-changing, and eternal. Fighting them is like fighting a many-headed monster, which, each time a neck is severed, sprouts a head even fiercer and cleverer than before. You are fighting that which is unfixed, mutating, indestructible. Harry stared at Snape. It was surely one thing to respect the Dark Arts as a dangerous enemy, another to speak of them, as Snape was doing, with a loving caress in his voice. Your defenses, said Snape, a little louder, must therefore be as flexible and inventive as the arts you seek to undo. These pictures - he indicated a few of them as he swept past - give a fair representation of what happens to those who suffer, for instance, the Cruciatus Curse - he waved a hand toward a witch who was clearly shrieking in agony - feel the Dementors Kiss - a wizard lying huddled and blank-eyed, slumped against a wall - or provoke the aggression of the Inferius - a bloody mass upon the ground. Has an Inferius been seen, then. said Parvati Patil in a high-pitched voice. Is it definite, is he using them. The Dark Lord has used Inferi in the past, said Snape, which means you would be well-advised to assume he might use them again. Now. He set gamez again around the other side of the classroom toward his desk, and again, they watched him as he walked, his dark robes billowing article source him. you are, I believe, complete novices in the use of nonverbal spells. What is the advantage of a nonverbal spell. Hermiones hand shot into the air. Snape took his time looking around at everybody else, making sure he had no choice, before saying curtly, Very well - Miss Granger. Your adversary has no warning about comm kind of magic youre about to perform, said Hermione, which gives you a split-second advantage. An answer copied almost word for word from The Standard Book of Spells, Grade Six, said Snape dismissively (over in the corner, Malfoy sniggered), but correct in essentials. Yes, those who progress to using magic without shouting incantations gain an element of surprise in their spellcasting. Not all wizards can do this, of course; it is a question of concentration and mind power which some - his Htttp lingered maliciously upon Harry once more - lack. Harry knew Snape was thinking of their disastrous Occlumency lessons of the previous year. He refused to drop his gaze, but glowered at Snape until Snape looked away. You will now divide, Snape went on, into pairs. One partner will attempt to jinx the other without speaking. The other will attempt to repel the jinx in equal silence. Carry on. Although Snape did not know it, Harry Http pc games com taught at least half the class (everyone who had been a member of the D. ) how to perform a Shield Charm the previous year. None of them had ever cast the charm without speaking, however. A reasonable amount of cheating ensued; many people were merely whispering the incantation instead of saying it aloud. Typically, Htttp minutes into the lesson Hermione managed to repel Nevilles muttered Jelly-Legs Jinx without uttering a single word, a feat that would surely have earned her twenty points for Gryffindor from any reasonable teacher, thought Harry bitterly, but which Snape ignored. He swept between them as they practiced, looking just as much like an overgrown bat as ever, lingering to watch Harry and Ron struggling with the task. Ron, who was supposed to be jinxing Harry, was purple in the face, his lips tightly compressed to save himself from the temptation of muttering the incantation. Harry had his wand raised, waiting on tenterhooks to repel a jinx that seemed unlikely ever to come. Pathetic, Weasley, said Snape, after a while. Gammes - let me show you - He turned his wand on Harry so fast that Harry reacted instinctively; all thought of nonverbal spells forgotten, he yelled, Protego. His Shield Charm was so strong Snape was knocked off-balance and hit a desk. The gsmes class had looked around and now watched as Snape righted himself, scowling. Do you remember me telling you we are practicing nonverbal spells, Potter. Yes, said Harry stiffly. Yes, sir. Theres no need to call me sir, Professor. The words had escaped him before he bames what he was saying. Several people gasped, including Hermione. Behind Snape, however, Ron, Dean, and Seamus grinned appreciatively. Detention, Saturday night, my office, said Snape. I do not take cheek from anyone, Potter. not even the Chosen One. That was brilliant, Harry. chortled Ron, once they were safely on their way to break a short while later. You really shouldnt have said it, said Hermione, frowning at Ron. What made you. He tried to jinx me, Hhtp case you didnt notice. fumed Harry. I had enough of that during those Occlumency lessons. Why doesnt he use another guinea pig for a change. Whats Dumbledore playing at, anyway, letting him teach Defense. Did you hear him talking about the Dark Arts. He loves them. All that unfixed, indestructible stuff - Well, said Hermione, I thought he sounded a bit like you. Like me. Yes, when you were telling us what its like to face Voldemort. You said it wasnt just memorizing a bunch of spells, you said it was just you and your brains and your guts - well, wasnt that what Snape was gamds. That it really comes down to being brave and quick-thinking. Harry was so disarmed that she had thought his words as well worth memorizing as The Standard Book of Spells coom he did not argue. Harry. Hey, Harry. Harry looked around; Jack Sloper, one of the Beaters on last years Gryffindor Quidditch team, was hurrying toward him holding a roll of parchment. For you, panted Sloper. Listen, I heard youre the new Captain. Whenre you holding trials. Im not sure yet, said Harry, thinking privately that Sloper would be very lucky to bubble witch saga 3 back on the team. Ill let you know. Oh, right. I was hoping itd be this weekend - But Harry was not listening; he had just recognized the thin, slanting writing on the parchment. Leaving Sloper in mid-sentence, he hurried away with Ron and Hermione, unrolling the parchment as he went. Cmo Harry, I would like to start our private lessons this Saturday. Kindly come along to my office at 8 p. I hope you are enjoying your first day back at school. Yours sincerely, Albus Dumbledore P. I enjoy Acid Pops. Fom enjoys Acid Pops. said Ron, who had read the message over Harrys shoulder and was looking perplexed. Its the password to get past the gargoyle outside his study, said Harry in a low voice. Snapes not going to be pleased. I wont be able to do his detention. He, Ron, and Hermione spent the whole of break speculating on what Dumbledore would teach Harry. Ron thought it most likely Htgp be spectacular jinxes and hexes of the type the Death Eaters would not know. Hermione said such things were illegal, and thought it much more likely that Dumbledore wanted to teach Harry advanced Defensive magic. After break, she went off to Arithmancy while Harry and Ron returned to the common room, where they grudgingly started Snapes homework. This turned out to be so complex that they still had not finished when Hermione joined them for their afterlunch free period (though she considerably speeded up the process). They had only just finished when the bell rang for the afternoons double Potions and they beat gmaes familiar path down to the dungeon classroom that had, for so long, been Snapes. When they arrived in the corridor they saw that there were only a dozen people progressing to N. level. Crabbe and Goyle had evidently failed to achieve the required O. grade, but four Slytherins had made it through, including Malfoy. Four Ravenclaws were there, and one Hufflepuff, Ernie Macmillan, pf Harry liked despite his rather pompous manner. Harry, Ernie said portentously, holding out his hand as Harry approached, didnt get a chance to speak in Defense Against the Dark Arts this morning. Good lesson, I thought, but Shield Charms are Http pc games com hat, of course, for us old D. lags. And how are you, Ron - Hermione. Before they could say more than fine, the dungeon door opened and Slughorns belly preceded him out of the door. As they filed into the room, his great walrus mustache curved above his beaming mouth, Http pc games com he greeted Harry and Zabini with particular enthusiasm. The dungeon was, most unusually, already full of vapors and odd smells. Harry, Ron, and Hermione sniffed interestedly as they passed large, bubbling cauldrons. The four Slytherins took a table together, as did the four Ravenclaws. This left Harry, Ron, and Hermione to share a table with Ernie. They chose the one nearest a gold-colored cauldron that was emitting one of the most seductive scents Harry had ever inhaled: Somehow it reminded him simultaneously of treacle tart, the woody smell of a broomstick handle, and something flowery he thought he might have smelled at the Burrow. He found that he was breathing very slowly and deeply and that the potions fumes seemed to be filling him up like pd. A great contentment stole over him; he grinned across at Ron, who grinned back lazily. Now then, now then, now then, said Slughorn, whose massive outline was quivering through the many shimmering vapors. Scales out, everyone, and potion kits, and dont forget your Hhtp of Advanced Potion-Making. Sir. said Harry, raising his hand. Harry, mboy. I havent got a book or scales or anything - nors Ron - we didnt realize wed be absolutely pubg game windows 10 keyboard final to do cpm N.you see - Ah, yes, Professor McGonagall did mention. not to worry, my Httpp boy, not to worry at all. You can use ingredients from the store cupboard today, and Im sure we can lend you some scales, and weve got a small stock of old books here, theyll do until you can write to Flourish and Blotts. Slughorn strode over to a corner cupboard and, after a moments foraging, emerged with two very battered-looking copies of Advanced Potion-Making by Libatius Borage, which he gave to Harry and Ron along with two sets of tarnished scales. Now then, said Gamfs, returning to the front of the class and Http his already bulging chest so that the buttons on his waistcoat threatened to burst off, Ive prepared a few potions for you to have a look at, just out of interest, you know. These are the kind of thing you ought to be able to make after completing your N. You ought to have heard of em, even if you havent made em yet. Anyone tell me what this one is. He indicated the cauldron nearest the Slytherin table. Harry raised himself slightly in his seat and saw what gaems like plain water boiling away inside it. Hermiones well-practiced hand hit the air before anybody elses; Slughorn pointed at her. Its Veritaserum, a colorless, odorless potion that forces the drinker to tell the truth, said Hermione. Very good, very good. said Slughorn happily. Now, he continued, pointing at the cauldron nearest the Ravenclaw table, this one here is pretty well known. Featured in a few Ministry leaflets lately too. Who can -. Hermiones hand was fastest once more. Its Polyjuice Potion, sir, she said. Harry too had recognized the slow-bubbling, mudlike substance in the second cauldron, but did not resent Hermione getting the credit for answering the question; she, after all, was the one who had succeeded in making it, back in their second year. Excellent, excellent. Now, this one here. yes, my dear. said Slughorn, cm looking slightly bemused, as Hermiones hand punched the air again. Its Amortentia. It is indeed. It seems almost foolish to ask, said Slughorn, who was looking mightily impressed, but I assume you know what it does. Its the most powerful love potion in the world. said Hermione. Quite right. You recognized it, I suppose, by its distinctive mother-ofpearl sheen. And the steam rising in characteristic spirals, said Hermione enthusiastically, and its supposed to smell differently to each of us, according to what visit web page us, and I can smell freshly mown grass and new parchment and - But she turned slightly pink and did not complete the sentence. May I ask your Httl, my dear. said Slughorn, ignoring Hermiones embarrassment. Hermione Granger, sir. Granger. Granger. Can you possibly be related to Hector DagworthGranger, who founded the Most Extraordinary Society of Potioneers.
She bought you twelve years of borrowed time. but Lord Voldemort got you in the end, as you knew he must. If this is dying, thought Harry, its not so bad. Even the pain was leaving him. But was this dying. Instead of going black, the Chamber seemed to be coming back into focus. Harry Apex coins generator no human verification his head a little shake and there was Fawkes, still resting his head on Harrys arm. A pearly patch of tears was shining all around the wound - except that there was no go here - Get away, bird, said Riddles voice suddenly. Get away from him - I said, get away - Harry raised his head. Riddle was pointing Harrys wand at Fawkes; there was a bang like a gun, and Fawkes took flight again in a whirl of gold and scarlet. Phoenix tears. said Riddle quietly, staring at Harrys arm. Of course. healing powers. I forgot. He looked into Harrys face. But it makes no difference. In fact, I prefer baldurs gate ps4 this way. Just you and me, Harry Potter. you and me. He raised the wand - Then, in a rush of wings, Fawkes had soared back overhead and something fell into Harrys lap - the diary. For a split second, both Harry and Riddle, wand still raised, stared at it. Then, without thinking, without considering, as though he had meant to do it all along, Harry seized the basilisk fang on the floor next to him and plunged it straight into the heart of the book. There was a long, dreadful, piercing scream. Ink spurted out of the diary in torrents, streaming over Harrys hands, flooding the floor. Riddle was writhing and twisting, screaming and flailing and then - He had gone. Harrys wand fell to the floor with a clatter and there was silence. Silence except for the steady drip drip of ink still oozing from the diary. The basilisk venom had burned a sizzling hole right through it. Shaking all over, Harry pulled himself up. His head was spinning as though hed just traveled miles by Floo powder. Slowly, he gathered together his wand and Apex coins generator no human verification Sorting Hat, and, with a huge tug, retrieved the glittering sword from the roof of the basilisks mouth. Then came a faint moan from the end Apex coins generator no human verification the Chamber. Ginny was stirring. As Harry hurried toward her, she sat up. Her bemused eyes traveled from the huge form of the dead basilisk, over Harry, in his blood-soaked robes, then to the diary in his hand. She drew a great, shuddering gasp and tears began to pour down her face. Harry - oh, Harry - I tried to tell you at b-breakfast, but I c-couldnt say it in front Apex coins generator no human verification Percy - it was me, Harry - but I - I s-swear I d-didnt mean to - R-Riddle made me, he t-took me over - and - how did you kill that - that thing. W-wheres Riddle. The last thing I r-remember is him coming out of the diary - Its all right, said Harry, holding up the Apex coins generator no human verification, and showing Ginny the fang hole, Riddles finished. Look. Him and the basilisk. Cmon, Ginny, lets get out of here - Im going to be expelled. Ginny wept as Harry helped her awkwardly to her feet. Ive looked forward to coming to Hogwarts ever since B-Bill came and n-now Ill have to leave and - w-whatll Mum and Dad say. Fawkes was waiting for them, hovering in the Chamber entrance. Harry urged Ginny forward; they stepped over the motionless coils of the dead basilisk, through the echoing gloom, and back into the tunnel. Harry heard the stone doors close behind them with a soft hiss. After a few minutes progress up the dark tunnel, a distant sound of slowly shifting rock reached Harrys ears. Ron. Harry yelled, speeding up. Ginnys okay. Ive got her. He heard Ron give a strangled cheer, and they turned the next bend to see his eager face staring through deck specs compared to sizable gap he had managed to make in the rockfall. Ginny. Ron thrust an arm through the gap in the rock to pull her through first. Youre alive. I dont believe it. What happened. How - what - where did that bird come from. Fawkes had swooped through the gap after Ginny. Hes Dumbledores, said Harry, squeezing through himself. How come youve got a sword. said Ron, gaping at the glittering weapon in Harrys hand. Ill explain when we get out of here, said Harry with a sideways glance at Ginny, who was crying harder than ever. But - Later, Harry said shortly. Apex coins generator no human verification didnt think it was a good idea to tell Ron yet whod been opening the Chamber, not in front of Ginny, anyway. Wheres Lockhart. Back there, said Continue reading, still looking puzzled but jerking his head up the tunnel toward the pipe. Hes in a bad way. Come and see. Led by Fawkes, whose wide scarlet wings emitted a soft golden glow in the darkness, they walked all the way back to the mouth of the pipe. Gilderoy Lockhart was sitting there, humming placidly to himself. His memorys gone, said Ron. The Memory Charm backfired. Hit him instead of us.
