Pets Slytherin House
Chapter 7: School Board Meeting

At noon Neville and the new Head of House Luna search for

they and invite the newly revealed Masters and Madam to join

with them in their private room for dinner that night. The luna

sensing that something had pulled Harry into his lap as he worked

his homework before he goes to see Professor Snape for dinner.

When it was time to go there, he asked if it was okay

if he took Vilu with him from Theo who saw Harry liked him more

than anyone else, aside from the Weasley Twins and himself, in

in house. Seeing Vilu curled up in his chest, Theo saw no problem

with that, so he nodded his head. Harry almost snarled at the girl

the blonde when she actually jumped into Snape's office made her feel

it was as if he was on one of those carnival rides that sometimes went off

leaving him with Mrs. Figg. "Ah Lady Lovegood please come in,

"Professor Snape said as he arrived at the Potion Master's office

sour." We have a few things to discuss before anything

it happened tonight, "said Snape driving her inside to show

a small table set for two and even a small bowl for Harry

it was as if he knew Luna would bring Harry along. "Because you have been

demoted to Heir of Ravenclaw, you have gained access to

voting on school-related items as part of the school board. Yang

thanks to the unsolicited resort, an emergency meeting has been scheduled for

by tonight. As the head of your household, I was chosen to tell

You are about what you need to know about the meeting as it is

professor Sprout with Heir Longbottom, "said Snape

the couple sat down and began to eat.Harry was surprised because of the small meal

set aside for her is also filled with food rather than having to be fed by

pairings. "First, the council has eleven members, excluding itself

You alone and Heir Longbottom, the four Heads of the House, the Headmaster, and

the last six parents are current students. The only requirement for parents

to be a board member is they must have a student in the school

at least the second year but six were also separated into three groups of two

based on their core. The current six include Molly Weasley and Grace

Finnigan represents light, Amos Diggory and Adriana Zabini represent gray, and

finally Jeremy Flint and Legvistus Nott for the dark, "said Snape.

"You two aren't the only new members because this is going to be

the first meeting of Legvistus and also newly chosen after Lucius Malfoy

lost his place due to events over the past year. "

"How much time should I spend

a meeting?" Luna asked to grab and scratch Harry's chin making her

snores.

"Actually it's not that much because there are only three

meeting per year one at the beginning of the semester, one before Yule breaks the advertisement

finally in the week after the final before you go back home," obviously

Snapes. "The "Meeting will probably run a bit long, but thanks to you

being the Founding Heir on the eve of the meeting, you will not be punished for

breaking the curfew. Oh yeah because meetings happen randomly, you and Heir

Longbottom will be given a Founder badge to mark you as Heir

but it will also shine a little ahead of the meeting usually gives you

notice a few days so you can take the time to grab it

section.

"What will I do during

a meeting?" Luna asked again.

"As an Heirs, you are required to vote

You are on a subject that is raised but you can also submit a subject for

selected like the Howler problem. I feel that I can guess on two

items scheduled for tonight, both a switch but also a problem with

Vilu, "said Snape as he reached out and patted the top

harry's head was soft. Harry still has some problems

to the touch, he was still surprised that he would not panic when Master

The potion caressed him and even curled into the man's hands. "Now

as the Heir, you and the Heir of Longbottom actually have a lot

the power in deciding the course of the school that I warned you to

it is not excessive and will not bring any problems to the meeting this time only

by electing and observing other board members, "Snape

admonish. "Now because you and Heir Longbottom are joining

we, the meeting has actually been advanced for an hour from its normal time

but only because of a short notice to both of you so that you

must stay up late to finish homework or other.

"snape said as he finished eating and wiped the side of his face with a napkin

slytherin themed.

"Is there a dress code?" Luna asked

while wiggling his bare toes because many of

his shoes were not returned to him.

"Not really," said Snape as he put down the dishes

his dirty sideways to be taken by his private House. "Now

before you leave, I will give you the Founder badge" he said

take out a small badge like a Prefect but with the letter "F"

rather than "P", he did not pin it on the front

his cape. As soon as it was on him, the badge shifted from the emblem

Hogwarts with an "F" on it becomes a blue Raven with

"F" neutral gray shifted to silver.

Eight o'clock in the night Professor Snape leads Luna, now

wearing shoes, to the fifth-floor corridor and to the picture showing the Castle

Hogwarts, a pair of humans wait for a moment before they join forces

Professor Sprout and Neville. Snape reached out and put down

his wand was at a certain point of the image from his location in Luna's arms

what Harry could not see was clearly the entrance when the picture

it moved to the side to reveal a well-appointed room

with a group of four tables located in a circle from each other.

"Snape why did we start so early?" Harry

heard a familiar voice ask and looked up to see Mrs

Weasley glared at the Potion Master before he looked at Luna and

Neville. "And why these two kids are here, it's a board meeting

to be you two" he ordered.

"They were part of the reason this meeting was so

early on. Molly," said Professor Snape, showing more respect than

he showed her.

"That's true" said Professor Sprout speaking while giving

Molly's denouncing view during the resort yesterday, revealed that Heir Longbottom

and Heir Lovegood is in line to become the Ruler of two Families when they

reaching adulthood. Even though they are students, they

it is obligatory to be here until they decide if they want to

have a representative voice for them. "

"That's impossible if they're from the Founder line, though,

it should be Augusta and Xenophilius on the board, not them,"

molly said as if she were a crybaby.

"Augusta and Xenophilius are not from that line

right," Flitwick said as he arrived, "both of them got the line

The Inheritance Founder of their mother, unfortunately both of them had no family

all that's left besides their kids."

"I still think they're too young to

take part in the vote for what happened here,"

molly said as she crossed her arms and gave Luna and Neville a glance

usually they will put out their own children.

"No matter they are included in their ranks there will be

on the board and raging about it won't do anything" said

Minerva shook her head at the woman making Molly glare at the Head

gryffindor House. Molly looked scowled at herself when the others

arrive and take the place until all they wait for is the Headmaster.

As Neville and Luna represented the Founder line, they sat at more tables

long with the Head of the Family and where Albus would sit. Luna found

he sat before one of the oldest members of the council who smiled at him

and introduced himself as Legvistus Nott.

"You may know my grandson, Theodore," he said

shake Luna's hand. As the hand approached the blonde girl Harry

waking up because he smelled the scent of a man so like his granddaughter that

I thought Harry was starting to bite him. "What is it

Kitsune?" he asked while looking at the little green fox

rubbing himself into his hands.

"Kitsune is like a little animal that makes Ginny

pissed off?" Molly asked as she glared at Harry and also at the Eater

Death in his mind.

"I think you mean stitches," Flitwick

appending.

"Whatever why the beast is in

here?" Molly snapped back.

"I've asked Luna to take him for a meeting

this is due to various reasons that will all come out as soon as the Head

School has finally arrived" Snape said coldly to the matriarch

Weasley clawed Harry around his ear.

"Oh, is this the Vilu Theo wrote to me,"

legvistus asked as he rubbed the little fox under his chin making Harry

snoring towards the older Nott. That time and before Molly could

throwing the door open and walking Dumbledore in a green robe

the pale that hurt the eyes contained a scene of a magical forest where the animals would be

walk on cloth.

"Ah, good, you're all here, sorry I'm late, I

I'm taking care of some paperwork" Albus said, sitting in the middle of the table

Hogwarts sent Neville, Luna, and Harry a slight glare before

his face continued.the typical grandfather appearance. "Now a meeting

the emergency was scheduled for the change of four students yesterday" Albus said.

"I want my kids to get back to Gryffindor, right away,"

molly interrupts though she doesn't lose love for the twins

by oneself. The idea that they should end up in Slytherin upset him.

"That couldn't have happened" Snape said

leaned back in his chair and begged to rub his chin while thinking.

"And why is that?" Molly asked so

"Molly the hat himself asked for help, didn't he

the student in question" replied Flitwick.

"Is that?' Amos Diggory asked "what does it mean

that?"

"According to my research, the hat will only ask for a

resort if it has been under a spell to force it to put students inside

the real house they were referring to" Flitwick said

the stack of papers he had been digging all day to search

know why the hat asked for a resort, though,

"All right, so my men have to stay with the snake

until they ask for their own resting place" Molly said

ignoring Snape, Legvistus, Jeremy, and Adriana were glaring at him.

"This brings up something that I once again raise to

this body, I'm sure it's time to ban Howlers" Snape said.

"Now Severus, my son, there is no reason for that, I

sure." Albus said calmly.

"Oh yeah there's Albus a lot of staff feel that rather than just

the punishment to a student was more akin to child abuse" he said

Snapes.

"What rubbish" said Molly.

"You think so, Molly let me tell you about

an event from last year. You sent Howler to Ronald to tell

everyone that if he's like you said" step one finger

get out of line "you'll drag him out of the instructional school

some students teased him about those words. Also in the letter

equally you bring the actions of another student who is not your child to the nude.

I don't care about Potter's actions during the show but you don't have any

the right to bring into it your crazy idea of punishment for a child

You, "said Snape while glaring at him.

"There's also a problem that when you send Howler, you

not knowing how the other students reacted to it, I had some

my students who come from a cruel house are having panic attacks

when Howler started shouting in the hall while thinking, it was meant to

they are, "said Professor Sprout.

"Well, I um," said Molly almost made Harry

laughing seeing him at a loss for words from being scolded by the two Professors.

"Let's have a vote" Albus said

discussions. "Because there are some new members, I will explain

how this is done," Albus said, "the environment of secrecy

it will be given to all of us so that you will not be able to see

how others choose where. After the vote is over,

Hogwarts himself will do it. count the votes. "he says

don't bother saying that he has veto power over every vote

which he disagrees with though he's not sure if it'll work on

Founder Voice.

A few minutes later the voices are collected and Molly and Albus

an annoyed find that since then Howlers have been banned for

surprisingly two opponents and thirteen against. Looking closer at

the results, it showed that the four Founder lines had chosen Howler to

it is forbidden to override Albus's veto which can be thrown. "All right Howlers

now has another business banned?" Albus asked trying

hiding anger.

"Yes, I want to ask you about the environment" Snape said.

"What about them?" Adriana asked

with anxious whether there was a problem with his son's ward and all the other children in the

the school is in danger.

"Well, it seems they didn't do the work there

in the past week, one of the students is missing and a magical creature

wondering in the yard, but I can forgive that one because of that creature

it needs a lot of help." Snape said softly

take Harry from Luna and show it to everyone.

"Who's missing?" Jeremy asked.

"None student counts" said

Albus fast.

"Then where Harry James Potter became

Albus?" Snape asks the surprising Harry to hear Master

The potion used his full name without any anger in his voice.

"He's had some special training" Albus

lying almost made Harry growl at her.

"He's a thirteen-year-old Albus, you're not

it only takes both his legal guardian and his magical guardian to approve him

leaving school for special training but also the Ministry,"

Professor McGonagall is increasingly concerned about the disappearance of one of the Lion

hers. .

"Well, his family has given me permission and because of me

is his Magic Guard protected, I think the Ministry just lost

the notice I sent them," Albus lied making

Harry tilted his head to the side of the headmaster was his Magic Guard

since when? Does that mean he knows what the family has done

Dursley's on him? So many questions flowed into his head as he

almost missed the next question to say, he probably would

answer it if it's not Molly.

"If Albus says Harry's okay, I believe

to her, I want to discuss the beast that attacked my daughter,"

he said as he pointed at Harry as if it was a stick that he would

use it to curse him, make him his.

"It was defending itself" Legvistus said

to defend Harry "according to my grandson he found your daughter has been

surprised him to get up and then go to hold him. Is it any wonder

that Vilu attacked him after all for all we can now

his first interaction with humans. And speaking of your daughter, I

it felt strange when I looked through the records for this meeting that girl

it's not punished. "

"Why should Ginny I be punished?" Ask Molly

while glaring at the older Wizard.

"From what I found even though he was downstairs

possession of the He-Yang-Not-Called-Bernamed he did not report it and if

it's not that young Harry he could die or take all the blame for

opened the room last year. However I did not find a record that even

the girl was put to death on fire, "said Legvistus. "I mean, people

the petrified have been forced to replace the lost jobs that

they missed out over the summer, but Ginny has joined forces

your family's on their way to Egypt. I know his part was found with only

stayed a week at school, so I think he should serve his sentence

this year and also not allowed to go to Hogsmead until he was four years old.

"

"Now wait a minute," Molly began.

"No, Molly, the words that Legvistus used call out

this is up to the vote and because of your relationship with Ginny, you didn't

can take part" Flitwick said as the group voted

any more. Once again everyone, other than Luna, was shocked to be together with

Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff, the Gryffindor and Slytherin lines also chose to

ensure Ginny is punished for her actions from the previous year.

"Lady Luna, because you seem to know who the heir is

lastly, can you tell the board about something?" Snapes

asked turned towards him.

"I can't, they're kind of unhealthy right now,"

luna said while hiding a grin as she lowered her hands to her back

Harry as Molly and Albus look like they've swallowed something

highly acidic.

"Well Ginny Weasley will accept detention during

months and blocked from going to Hogsmead next year, are there any

other business?" Albus asked in a tone that said better

there aren't.

"I'd like to discuss Professor Binns" Jeremy said

Flint almost made Albus growl.

"What about him?" Albus asked briefly.

"I think we need a blood and flesh teacher who

real for the subjects of History of Magic, not ghosts. I mean Binns

have a habit of putting students to bed in his class so it is difficult for them

to pass OWL let alone NEWT. Also how.he really judged

every homework she gives because she can't touch

parchment, "jeremy said making the others nod. Albus wants to curse

these fools are not just for how long this lasts but one

anything will fight it. He doesn't want Binns replaced because it will

make the students take more active classes that can be used to

fight in the coming war when Voldemort returns.

"Let's do a vote" Minerva said

making Albus grip the arm of his chair so hard that the books

finger whitened. In the end it doesn't even approach everything but

Albus chose to get rid of Binns because even Molly disliked him

the ghost was because it caused her children to score badly.

"Alright, I'll start looking for the Magic History teacher

substitute," said Albus decided he would look for a worse teacher

by Binns.

"I don't think it's Albus" Grace Finnigan added,

"Because you seem to have too much work, the board will

take care of this," he said and got a nod from another parent on the board

who agreed. With that the meeting finally ended when Snape took the lead

Luna goes back to the dorm trying to figure it out, because everyone doesn't

choose who chooses the Gryffindor and Slytherin lines but also how

his way. As for Luna, she had only recently been holding Harry in her chest

knowing that even in his current form he had cast his vote

during the meeting and make a promise to himself that if he does not

returning to his human form at the next meeting he will find a

way to bring him back.
