Chapter 6
Summary: What if there was a different reason for Salazar leaving? Hermione and Severus are swept up in a story of love, betrayal and mistakes. Can the two of them correct a mistake that Helga and Godric made or are they doomed to suffer the same fate as Rowena and Salazar? R/R
Chapter 6
Harry and Susan watched Severus and Hermione closely as the Head Girl and Potions Master gathered information. Harry and Susan too gather information. Like Salazar and Rowena, Helga and Godric too hid some of their journals at Hogwarts as well.
“Hey, what’s got you two so preoccupied lately?” Ron asked on a snowy December morning, a week before Christmas Holidays.
“What do you mean?” Harry replied.
“For the past month, you guys have spent your time either in the library or off by the lake,” Ginny said.
“We’re just trying to get in as much private time as we can before our N.E.W.T.’s,” Susan lied without batting an eyelash.
“Yuck. I don’t need to hear about your love life,” Ron gagged.
The others laughed at Ron’s face. Harry gave Susan a small wink. Ron blushed as Ginny pointed out that she had seen Ron and Padma Patel making out just the other day outside the Gryffindor Common room.
“Anyway. Where’s Hermione?” Ron asked with a flustered sounding voice.
“She said she need to talk to the Headmaster about something,” Ginny answered.

Albus sat at his desk and listened as Severus and Hermione explained their theory and their findings. Once they were done, Albus began speaking. “Sounds as if the founders wish to use the two of you to fix this little disagreement,”
“Disagreement? No offense sir, but this problem is the reason Hogwarts is so divided in the first place,” Hermione stated.
“Hermione is correct Albus. If Godric and Helga hadn’t been so pigheaded about Salazar and Rowena, I doubt Voldemort would have ever been hatched. Not to mention Hogwarts would probably be better off,” Severus added heatedly.
“You are both correct. Now Severus, you mentioned that Salazar also knew of his and Rowena’s souls being reunited and left something behind. Perhaps the three of us should venture into the Chamber of Secrets and try to find it,” Albus nodded.
The three stood up and using a rarely used staircase, they made their way down to the Chamber of Secrets. Once they reached the outer chamber, Severus stepped foreword and opened the hidden door that led to the inner chamber.
“It looks just like my dreams. They’re beautiful,” Hermione gasped.
“Salazar must have been pleased. According to the stories, Salazar was quite handy with a wand,” Albus smiled.
Hermione watched as Severus stood in the center of the room. Suddenly, Severus let out a gasp and a soft green light surrounded him. Hermione started toward him, but Albus stopped her.
“Wait. Let us see what happens,” Albus whispered.
Severus’ eyes slowly opened and as the light faded, he looked around. He turned in a small circle before he spotted Hermione and Albus. His face broke into a smile as he laid eyes on Hermione.
“My darling Rowena,” he said.
“Severus?” Hermione asked.
“No. Well, not at the moment. I had to take over his body for a brief time. I must say you are just as beautiful as my beloved Rowena,” he answered.
“Salazar, can Severus see and hear everything going on right now?” Albus questioned.
“Yes. Now, I must retrieve the crystal. You and Severus were right. In order to correct the mistakes of the past, you two will need mine and Rowena’s full memories,” Salazar replied.
“Um, will the crystal effect the reincarnations of Godric and Helga?” Hermione asked.
“Yes,” Salazar answered as he walked to the fireplace.
Hermione watched in fascination as Salazar pulled a chair over to stand on. He then swung the portrait of himself and Rowena back, revealing a hidden compartment. He then opened it and removed a black box.
“It’s time for Severus and you to do the rest. I wish you luck,” Salazar smiled as the green light encircled him again.
Just as quickly as it started, the light faded. Severus stood there, his eyes blinking rapidly as he got his bearings back. “What the hell just happened?” he demanded.
“It seems your were briefly possessed by Salazar. Did you hear what he said?” Albus explained.
“Yes. That explains why I feel like there were two people in my head. Well Hermione, shall we?” Severus nodded as he held the box out to Hermione.
Hermione walked to his side. Severus opened the box to reveal a green and silver crystal laying on a bed of sapphire blue velvet. Hermione and Severus placed their left hands atop the crystal. They were quickly engulfed in a blinding white light.
************************************************************************
At the same moment on the shore of the lake, Harry and Susan too were engulfed in the same bright light. They dropped to their knees and clutched their heads. Their minds were instantly filled with the memories and feelings of Helga Hufflepuff and Godric Gryffindor.
“Ohhhh. My head feels like it’s about to burst,” Susan moaned.
“Mine too. What was that?” Harry asked.
“I don’t know, but somehow, I have all of Helga’s memories. What does that mean?” Susan answered.
“I guess Hermione and Professor Snape have done something. This means that we should be prepared. I think things are about to get interesting,” Harry said.
************************************************************************
“Are you two all right?” Albus asked worriedly as Hermione and Severus got unsteadily to their feet.
“I don’t know,” Hermione said weakly.
“I feel strange,” Severus added.
Albus helped them over to a nearby sofa. As the two sat down, Albus took a seat in an armchair across from them. He waited patiently for them to get their wits about them.
“Wow, not only do I have Rowena’s memories, but I have her feelings towards Salazar as well,” Hermione stated.
“I feel Salazar’s as well. Now that we have their memories and emotions, what do we do?” Severus replied.
“I think it is best that you two return to your rooms and rest. I’m sure Harry and Miss Bones have just experienced the same thing. We should let them come to me, rather than confronting them at the moment,” Albus instructed.
Hermione and Severus nodded. Albus bid them good afternoon and left. Now alone, Hermione and Severus looked at each other for the first time since acquiring their additional memories. It was as if they were seeing each for the first time,”
“I can feel Rowena’s love for Salazar blending with my feelings for you,” she whispered.
“I feel the same. There’s something I need to tell you Hermione,” she nodded for him to continue. “I’m in love with you,” he smiled.
“Funny, I’m in love with you,” she giggled.
Severus reached over and pulled her into his arms and kissed her soundly. Hermione simply melted into his arms and returned his kiss. After a few minutes, the couple pulled away and left the chamber, and headed for their respected room for a quick nap before dinner.
