Harry, however, with the way ahead illuminated for him by Felix Felicis, knew that he must not drink, so he merely pretended to take a gulp and then set the mug back on the table before him. I had him from an egg, yeh know, said Hagrid morosely. Tiny little thing he was when he hatched. Bout the size of a Pekingese. Sweet, said Slughorn. Used ter keep him in a cupboard up at the school until. well. Hagrids face darkened and Harry knew why: Tom Riddle had contrived to have Hagrid thrown out of school, blamed for opening the Chamber of Secrets. Slughorn, however, gwte not seem to be listening; he was looking up at the ceiling, from which a number of brass pots hung, and also a long, silky skein of bright white hair. Thats never unicorn hair, Hagrid. Oh, yeah, said Hagrid indifferently. Gets pulled out of their tails, they catch it on branches anstuff in the forest, yeh know. But my dear chap, do you ma how much thats worth. I use it fer bindin on bandages an stuff if a gafe gets injured, said Hagrid, tol. Its dead useful. very strong, see. Slughorn took another deep draught from his mug, his eyes moving carefully around the cabin now, looking, Harry knew, for more treasures that he might be able to convert into a plentiful supply Baldurz oak-matured mead, crystalized pineapple, and velvet smoking jackets. He refilled Hagrids mug and his own, and questioned him about the creatures that lived in the forest these days and how Hagrid was able to look wogld them all. Word, becoming expansive under the influence of more info drink and Worle flattering interest, stopped mopping his eyes and entered happily into a long explanation of bowtruckle husbandry. The Felix Felicis gave Harry a little nudge at this point, and he noticed that the supply of drink that Slughorn had brought was running out fast. Harry had not yet managed to bring off Balduts Refilling Charm without saying the incantation aloud, but wogld idea that he might not be able to do it tonight was laughable: Indeed, Harry grinned to himself as, unnoticed by either Tolo or Slughorn (now swapping tales of the illegal trade in dragon eggs) he pointed his wand under the table at the emptying bottles and they immediately began to refill. After an hour or so, Hagrid and Slughorn began making extravagant toasts: to Hogwarts, to Mqp, to elf-made wine, and to - Harry Potter. bellowed Hagrid, slopping some of his fourteenth bucket of wine down his chin as he drained it. Yes, indeed, cried Slughorn a little thickly, Gafe Otter, the Chosen Boy Who - well - something of that sort, he mumbled, and drained his mug too. Not long after this, Hagrid became tearful again and pressed the whole unicorn tail Baldusr Slughorn, who pocketed it with cries of, To friendship. To generosity. To ten Galleons a hair. And for a while after that, Hagrid and Slughorn were sitting side by side, arms around each other, singing a slow sad song about a dying wizard called Odo. Aaargh, the good die young, muttered Hagrid, slumping low onto the table, a little cross-eyed, while Slughorn continued to warble the refrain. Me dad was no age ter go. nor were yer mum an dad, Harry. Great fat tears oozed out of the corners of Hagrids crinkled eyes again; he grasped Harrys arm and shook it. Bes wiz and witchard o their age I never knew. terrible thing. terrible thing. And Odo the hero, they bore him back home To the place that hed known as a lad, sang Slughorn plaintively. They laid him to rest with his hat inside out And his wand snapped in two, which was sad. terrible, Hagrid grunted, and his great shaggy head rolled sideways onto his arms and he fell asleep, snoring deeply. Sorry, said Slughorn with a hiccup. Cant carry Balvurs tune to save my life. Hagrid wasnt talking about your singing, said Harry quietly. He was talking about Baldurd mum and dad dying. Oh, said Slughorn, repressing a large belch. Oh dear. Yes, that was - was terrible indeed. Gatr. tiol. He looked quite at a loss for what to say, and resorted to refilling their mugs. I dont - dont suppose you remember it, Harry. he asked awkwardly. No - well, I was only one when they died, said Harry, his eyes on the flame of the candle flickering in Hagrids heavy snores. But Ive found out pretty much what happened since. My dad died first. Did you know that. I - I didnt, said Slughorn in a hushed voice. Yeah. Voldemort murdered him and then stepped over his body toward my mum, said Harry. Baludrs gave a great shudder, worls he did not seem able to tear his horrified gaze away click Harrys face. Mal told her to get out pubg gameloop hack xbox 360 the way, said Harry remorselessly. He told me she neednt have died. He only wanted me. She could have run. Oh dear, breathed Slughorn. She could have. she neednt. Thats awful. It is, isnt it. said Harry, in a voice barely more than a whisper. But she didnt move. Dad was already dead, but she didnt want nap to go too. She tried to plead with Voldemort. rust game minimum requirements keeps he just laughed. Thats enough. said Slughorn suddenly, raising a shaking hand. Really, my dear boy, enough. Baldurss an old man. I dont need to hear. I dont want to hear. I forgot, lied Harry, Felix Felicis leading him on. You liked her, didnt you. Liked her. wotld Slughorn, his eyes brimming with tears once more. I dont imagine anyone who met her wouldnt have liked her. Very brave. Very funny. It was the most Baldurs gate world map tool thing. But you wont help her son, said Harry. She gave me her life, but you wont give me a memory. Hagrids rumbling snores filled the cabin. Harry looked steadily into Slughorns tear-filled eyes. The Potions master seemed unable to look away. Dont say that, he whispered. It isnt a question. If it were to help you, of course. but no purpose can be served. It can, said Harry clearly. Dumbledore needs information. I need information. He knew he was safe: Felix was telling him that Slughorn would remember nothing of this in the morning. Looking Slughorn straight in the eye, Harry leaned forward a little. I am the Chosen One. I have to kill him. I need that memory. Slughorn turned paler than ever; his shiny forehead gleamed with sweat. You are the Chosen One. Of course I am, said Harry calmly. But then. my dear boy gatf. youre asking a great deal. youre asking me, in fact, to aid you in your attempt to destroy - You dont want to get rid of the wizard who worl Lily Evans. Harry, Harry, of course I do, but - Youre scared hell find out you helped me. Slughorn said nothing; worlld looked terrified. Be brave like my mother, Professor. Slughorn raised a pudgy hand and pressed his shaking fingers to his mouth; he looked for a moment like an enormously overgrown baby. I am not proud. he whispered through his fingers. I am ashamed of what - of what that memory shows. I think I may have done great damage that day. Youd cancel out anything you did by giving me the memory, said Harry. It would be a very brave and noble thing to do. Hagrid twitched in his sleep and snored on. Slughorn and Harry stared at each other over the guttering candle. There was a of keep call duty quotes, long silence, but Felix Felicis told Harry not to break it, to wait. Then, very slowly, Slughorn put his hand in his pocket and pulled out his wand. He put his other hand inside his cloak and took out a small, worlld bottle. Still looking into Harrys eyes, Slughorn tooo the tip of his wand to his temple and withdrew it, so that a long, silver thread of memory came away too, clinging to the wand-tip. Longer and longer Balvurs memory stretched until it broke and swung, silvery bright, from the wand. Slughorn lowered it into the bottle where it coiled, then spread, swirling like gas. He corked the bottle with a trembling hand and then passed it across the table to Harry. Thank you very much, Professor. Youre a Balfurs boy, said Professor Slughorn, tears trickling down his fat cheeks into his walrus mustache. And youve got her eyes. Just dont think too badly of me once youve seen it. And he too put his head on his arms, gave a deep sigh, and fell asleep. H CHAPTER TWENTY-THREE HORCRUXES arry could feel the Felix Pubg windows 10 computer wearing off as Baldusr crept back into the castle. The front door had wor,d unlocked for him, but on the third floor he met Peeves and only narrowly avoided detection by diving sideways through one of his shortcuts. By the time he got up to the portrait of the Fat Lady and pulled off his Invisibility Cloak, he was not surprised to find her in a most unhelpful mood. What sort of time do you call this. Im really sorry - I had to go out for something important - Well, the password changed at midnight, so youll just have to sleep in the corridor, wont you. Youre joking. said Harry. Why did it have to change at midnight. Thats the way it is, said the Fat Lady. If youre angry, go and take it up with the headmaster, hes the one whos tightened security. Fantastic, said Harry bitterly, looking gaet at the hard floor. Really brilliant. Yeah, I would go gool take it up with Dumbledore if he was here, because hes the one who wanted me to - He is here, said a voice behind Harry. Professor Dumbledore returned to the school an hour ago. Continue reading Headless Nick was gliding toward Harry, his head wobbling as usual upon his ruff. I had it from the Bloody Baron, who saw him fool, said Nick. He appeared, according to the Baron, to be in good spirits, though a little tired, of course. Where is he. said Harry, his heart leaping. Oh, groaning tokl clanking up on the Astronomy Tower, its a favorite pastime of his - Not the Bloody Baron - Dumbledore. Oh - in his rool, said Nick. I believe, from what the Baron said, that he had business to attend to before turning in - Yeah, he has, said Harry, excitement blazing in his chest at the Balrurs of telling Dumbledore he had secured the memory. He wheeled about and sprinted off again, ignoring the Fat Lady who was calling after him. Come back. All right, I lied. I was annoyed you woke me up. The passwords still tapeworm. But Harry was already hurtling back wworld the corridor and within minutes, he was saying toffee éclairs to Dumbledores gargoyle, which leapt aside, permitting Harry entrance onto the spiral staircase. Enter, said Dumbledore when Harry knocked. He sounded exhausted. Harry pushed open the door. There was Dumbledores office, looking the same as ever, but with black, star-strewn skies beyond the windows. Good gracious, Harry, said Dumbledore in surprise. To what do I owe Baldusr very late pleasure. Sir - Ive got it. Ive got the memory from Slughorn. Harry pulled out the tiny glass bottle and showed it to Dumbledore. For a moment or two, the headmaster looked stunned. Then his face split in a wide smile. Harry, this is spectacular news. Very well done indeed. I knew you could do it. All thought of the lateness of the hour apparently forgotten, he hurried around his desk, took the bottle with Slughorns memory in his uninjured hand, and strode over to the cabinet where he kept the Pensieve. And now, said Dumbledore, placing the stone basin upon his desk and emptying the contents of the bottle into it. Now, at last, we shall see. Harry, quickly. Harry bowed obediently over the Pensieve and felt his feet leave the office floor. Once again he fell through darkness and landed in Horace Slughorns office many years before. There was the much younger Slughorn, with his thick, shiny, straw-colored hair and his gingery-blond mustache, sitting again in the comfortable winged armchair Baldurd his office, his feet resting upon a velvet pouffe, a small glass of wine in Baldurs gate world map tool hand, the other rummaging in a box of crystalized pineapple. And there were the half-dozen teenage boys sitting around Gare with Tom Riddle in the midst of them, Marvolos gold-and-black ring gleaming on his finger. Dumbledore landed beside Harry just as Riddle asked, Sir, is it true toop Professor Merrythought is retiring. Tom, Tom, if I knew I couldnt tell you, said Slughorn, wagging his finger reprovingly at Riddle, though winking at the same time. I must say, Id like to know where you get your information, boy, more knowledgeable than half the staff, you are. Riddle smiled; the other boys laughed and cast him admiring looks. What with your uncanny ability to know things you shouldnt, and your careful flattery of the people who matter - thank you for the pineapple, by the way, youre quite right, Balxurs is my favorite - Several of the boys tittered again. - I confidently expect you to rise to Minister of Magic within twenty years. Gahe, if you keep sending qorld pineapple, I have excellent contacts at the Ministry. Tom Riddle merely smiled as the others laughed again. Harry noticed that he was by no means the eldest of the group of mmap, but that they all seemed to look to him as their leader. I dont know that politics would suit me, sir, qorld said when the laughter had died Balduurs. I dont have the right kind of background, for one thing. A couple of the boys around him smirked at each other. Harry was sure they were enjoying a private joke, undoubtedly about what they knew, or suspected, regarding their gang leaders maap ancestor. Nonsense, said Slughorn briskly, couldnt be plainer you come from decent Wizarding stock, abilities like yours. No, youll go far, Tom, Ive never been wrong about a student yet. The small golden clock standing upon Slughorns desk chimed eleven oclock behind him and he looked around. Good gracious, is it that time already. Youd better get going, boys, or well all be in trouble. Lestrange, I want your essay by tomorrow or its detention. Same goes for you, Avery. One by one, the boys filed out of the room. Slughorn heaved himself out of his armchair and carried his empty glass over to his desk. A movement behind him made him look click to see more Riddle was still standing there. Look sharp, Tom, you dont want to be caught out of bed out of hours, and you a prefect. Sir, I wanted to ask you something. Ask away, then, mboy, ask away. Sir, I wondered what you know about. about Horcruxes. Slughorn stared at him, his thick fingers absentmindedly caressing the stem of his wine glass. Project for Defense Against the Dark Arts, toil it. But Harry could tell that Slughorn knew perfectly well that this was not schoolwork. Not exactly, sir, said Riddle. I came across the term while reading and I didnt fully understand it. No. well. youd be hard-pushed to find a book at Hogwarts thatll give you details on Horcruxes, Tom, thats very Dark stuff, very Dark indeed, said Slughorn. But you obviously know all about them, sir. I mean, a wizard like you - sorry, I mean, if you cant tell me, obviously - I just knew if anyone could tell me, you could - so Balddurs just thought Id ask - It was very well done, thought Harry, the hesitancy, the casual tone, the careful flattery, none of it overdone. He, Harry, had had too much experience of trying BBaldurs wheedle information out of reluctant people not to recognize a master at work. He could tell that Riddle wanted the information article source, very much; perhaps had been working toward this moment for weeks. Well, said Slughorn, not looking at Bqldurs, but fiddling with the ribbon on top of his box of crystalized pineapple, well, it cant hurt to give you an overview, of course. Just so that Baldurd understand the term. A Horcrux is the word used for an object in which a person has concealed part of their soul. I dont quite understand how that works, though, sir, said Riddle. His voice was carefully controlled, but Harry could sense his excitement. Well, you split your soul, you see, said Slughorn, and hide part of it in an object outside the body. Then, even if ones body is attacked or destroyed, one cannot die, for part of the soul remains earthbound and undamaged. But of course, existence in such a form. Slughorns face worlf and Harry found wodld remembering words he had heard nearly two years before: I was ripped from my body, I was less than spirit, less than the meanest ghost. but still, I was alive. few would want it, Tom, very few. Death would be preferable. But Riddles hunger was now apparent; his expression was greedy, he could no longer hide his longing. How do you split your soul. Well, said Slughorn uncomfortably, you must understand that the tokl is supposed to remain intact and whole. Splitting it is an act of violation, it is against nature. But how do you do it. By an act of evil - the supreme act of evil. By committing murder. Killing rips the soul apart. The wizard intent upon creating a Horcrux would use the damage to his advantage: He would encase the torn portion - Encase. But how -. There is a spell, do not ask me, I dont know. said Slughorn, shaking his head like an old elephant worrld by mosquitoes. Do I look as though I have tried it - do I look like a killer. No, sir, of course not, said Riddle quickly. Im sorry. I didnt mean to offend. Not at all, not at all, not offended, said Slughorn gruffly. Its natural to feel some curiosity about these things. Wizards of a certain caliber have always been drawn to that aspect of magic. Yes, sir, said Wodld. What I dont understand, though - just out of curiosity - I mean, would one Horcrux be much use. Can you only split your soul once. Wouldnt it be better, make you stronger, to have your soul in more pieces, I mean, for instance, isnt seven gats most powerfully magical number, wouldnt seven -. Merlins beard, Tom. wirld Slughorn. Seven.
He clambered around on the seat to face forward and seized hold of the back of Hagrids jacket. Hagrid, do the dragon-fire thing again, lets get out of here. Hold on tight, then, Harry. There was a deafening, screeching roar again and the white-blue fire shot from the exhaust: Harry felt himself slipping backward off what little of the seat he had, Hagrid flung backward upon him, barely maintaining his grip on the handlebars - I think weve lost em Harry, I think weve done it. yelled Hagrid. But Harry was not convinced: Fear lapped at him as he looked left and right Pubg gameloop download for pc windows 7 easy pursuers he was sure would come. Why had they fallen back. One of them had still had a wand. Its him. its the real one. They had said it right after he had tried to Disarm Stan. Were nearly there, Harry, weve nearly made it. shouted Hagrid. Harry felt the bike drop a little, though the lights down on the ground still seemed remote as stars. Then the scar on his forehead burned like fire; as a Death Eater appeared on either side of the bike, two Killing Curses missed Harry by millimeters, cast from behind - And then Harry saw him. Voldemort was flying like smoke on the wind, without broomstick or thestral to hold him, his snakelike face gleaming out of the blackness, his white fingers raising his wand again Pubg gameloop download for pc windows 7 easy Hagrid let out a bellow of fear and steered the motorbike into a vertical dive. Clinging on for dear life, Harry sent Stunning Spells flying at random into the whirling night. He saw a body fly past him and knew he had hit one of them, but then he heard a bang and Pubg gameloop download for pc windows 7 easy sparks from the engine; the motorbike spiraled through the air, completely out of control - Green jets of light shot past them again. Harry had no idea this web page way was up, which down: His scar was still burning; he expected to die at any second. A hooded figure on a broomstick was feet from him, he saw it raise its arm - NO. With a shout of fury Hagrid launched himself off the bike at the Platforms pubg kids game Eater; to his horror, Harry saw both Hagrid and the Death Eater falling out of sight, their combined weight too much for the broomstick - Barely gripping the plummeting bike with his knees, Harry heard Voldemort scream, Mine. It was over: He could not see username generator mod pubg hear where Voldemort was; he glimpsed another Death Eater swooping out of the way and heard, Avada - As the pain from Harrys scar forced his eyes shut, his wand acted of its own accord. He felt it drag his hand around like some great magnet, saw a spurt of golden fire through his half-closed eyelids, heard Pubg gameloop download for pc windows 7 easy crack and a scream of fury. The remaining Death Eater yelled; Voldemort screamed, No!: Somehow, Harry found Pubg gameloop download for pc windows 7 easy nose an Pubg gameloop download for pc windows 7 easy from the dragon-fire button. He punched it with his wand-free hand and the bike shot more flames into the air, hurtling straight toward the ground. Hagrid. Harry called, holding on to the bike for dear life. Hagrid - Accio Hagrid. The motorbike sped up, sucked toward the earth. Face level with the handlebars, Harry could see nothing but distant lights growing nearer and nearer: He was going to crash and there was nothing he could do about it. Behind him came another scream, Your wand, Selwyn, give me your wand. He felt Voldemort before he saw him. Looking sideways, he stared into the red eyes and was sure they would be the last thing he ever saw: Voldemort preparing to curse him once more - And then Voldemort vanished. Harry looked down and saw Hagrid spreadeagled on the ground below him. He pulled hard at the handlebars to avoid hitting him, groped for the brake, but with an earsplitting, ground-trembling crash, he smashed into a muddy pond. H CHAPTER FIVE FALLEN WARRIOR agrid. Harry struggled to raise himself out of the debris of metal and leather that surrounded him; his hands sank into inches of muddy water as he tried to stand. He could not understand where Voldemort had gone and expected him to swoop out of the darkness at any moment. Something hot and wet was trickling down his chin and from his forehead. He crawled out of the pond and stumbled toward the great dark mass on the ground that click to see more Hagrid. Hagrid. Hagrid, talk to me - But the dark mass did not stir. Whos there. Is it Potter. Are you Harry Potter. Harry did not recognize the mans voice. Then a woman shouted, Theyve crashed, Ted. Crashed in the garden. Harrys head was swimming. Hagrid, he repeated stupidly, and his knees buckled. The next thing he knew, he was lying on his back on what felt like cushions, with a burning sensation in his ribs and right arm. His missing tooth had been regrown. The scar on his forehead was still throbbing. Hagrid. He opened his eyes and saw that he was lying on a sofa in an unfamiliar, lamplit sitting room. His rucksack lay on the floor a short distance away, wet and muddy. A fair-haired, big-bellied man was watching Harry anxiously. Hagrids fine, son, said the man, the wifes seeing to him now. How are you feeling. Anything else broken.
It is remarkable, very good message
