The year had been fun, but it was time to leave the school once again. There was nothing more to do, and it was the end of the year after all. But Harry had memories of the last time the Chamber of Secrets had been opened, as well as how it had ended. This time would be no different except for the fact that no one at the ministry knew that the Chamber had been once again opened. Post was monitored, save for Harry's, he didn't send mail, only received it. No word escaped from the castle, and students dared not mention such things to their parents for fear that something of the sort would happen to them as well. There were a few families after all that had also been found petrified in their homes during the holidays. The Heir of Slytherin was afoot, and was prowling not only the halls of Hogwarts but beyond its walls as well. The student body believed that those students that had gone home and been attacked spilled the beans about the Chamber and suffered for it, momentary suffering, but suffering nontheless.

Harry had been sending cursed letters to the students that had left for the holidays, it would not do if the opening of the Chamber became public, the school might be forced to close.

It was the last day of classes, and Harry decided that a student deserved to die, for tradition's sake and all that. So during the year, Harry had hatched himself a basilisk, one which he was actually able to force to grow faster, larger, quicker. Who needed a thousand years to make such a creature grow, when one could do it in a matter of weeks or months. Harry hatched the basilisk and immediately killed it, his necromantic knowledge had grown in the one year which he spent in the school. Who knew that the Hogwarts' Library boasted such texts as Necromantic journals, details many things that were considered to be amongst the vilest of vile of the black arts.

The dead hatchling was then brought back to life via a simple ritual which Harry had found and tweaked to allow for the possibility for the dead to change and reach its potential state of maturity, the zenith of its possible power. This only worked on magical creatures and not on humans, or any other humanoid for that matter.

This basilisk was not like his serpentine servant, in that while it looked to be alive, its eyes were devoid of life, but held just as much intelligence as its older cousin. This snake had no organs or living tissue, it only had its skin, eyes, muscles, and bones. It did not need lungs for it did not breath, it did not need a stomach for it did not need to eat, it did not have a reproductive system as procreation was against the law of death. Its ability to kill with just a look remained, but it no longer had the ability to petrify or poison. These two other abilities were replaced by the ability to freeze the blood of their intended victim, in a way cause death by hypothermia from the inside-out.

It would be with this monster that Harry would kill his intended victim, and it would be with this ressurectable snake that Harry would claim victory over the forces of darkness, well victory against himself.

The students had finally been given the depetrification potion, all of them experiencing pains beyond belief, and none of the healers send over by St. Mungo's knew what to do as they had never encountered such symtoms in any patient in the past.

With most of the hospital wing busy, and with parents finally being informed of their children's status, the professors were also busy. Too busy until it was too late that is.

All residents of the school bore witness to the writing on the wall. Blood bled from the walls of the Great Hall of Hogwarts, forming letters, then sentences claiming that a student had been taken, and that her cold dead body would forever be made a decoration of the Chamber of Secrets. The Hogwarts secret was out, the Chamber had been opened for the duration of the whole school year, and the world was not notified.

There was still time, the professors and assembled parents thought to try and save the kidnapped student, which was why they were able to see Lockhart for the fraud that he was. When they arrived at his quarters, the man was just about done with his packing and was preparing to make his daring escape. When confronted by the professors and parents of the victimized children, the man had attempted to modify their memories, but was stopped by Amelia Bones', head of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, quick actions in such a situation. The man was found to be a fraud, but the location of the Chamber of Secrets was still a secret. Lost and not knowing how to proceed, the professors and parents turned to the supposed leader of the light for answers.

Before the headmaster could begin spouting empty promises, a loud crash echoed off of the walls of the school, their origin being the depths of the castle. A battle was brewing, or so Harry made the professors, students, and parents, think.

He ordered the frost worm, for that was more or less what the ressurected basilisk was, to make as much noise down in the dungeons as possible. Which it did with pleasure, hissing about making its master proud, for the joy and happiness of its master was all that mattered to such a creature.

When Harry sensed the approach of the adults of Hogwarts, he held up a sword he had brought down to the dungeons which he had taken from one of the stationary suits of armor which lined some of the corridors of the castle.

"Die for me," Harry told his frost worm.

~Gladly, my master~ it replied and opened its mouth as if to swallow Harry whole, it was an action which the adults within the castle were able to witness and do nothing about. It was also an action to allow Harry full access to the roof of the serpent's mouth, which he shoved the sword through taking out the monster's brain as the blade's tip exited the top of the monster's head.

As the monster's head fell, as its life once again left it, Harry pulled out of the maw, and rolled to look like he had just thought to move due to the possibility of being taken down along with the monster. In the end he looked like he had bravely fought the monster like a stupid Gryffindor, while he had in fact staged the whole thing. Beside the body of the monster was the body of a red headed first year, the first and final casualty of the monster of Hogwarts.

For that year at least.

Harry planted the diary on the girl's body, as well as altered it to read Instructions for the Heirs.

When her body was brought to the hospital wing, as well as Harry's 'exhausted' form, after the monster's body was turned into a pile of ashes by the parents of the formerly petrified students, the diary had fallen out of the girl's robes, and she was blamed for the whole mess.

To think, a Weasley was the supposed Heir of Slytherin, or was simply trying to emulate her idol as on the first page she had supposedly wrote, In the name of Lord Voldemort, Hogwarts shall fall.

Suffice to say the Weasley clan as a whole suffered a lot of losses that day, not only by the loss of their daughter, but their dignity, their pride, their standing in the community, and a whole host of other things. Arthur Weasley was summarily demoted to an even lower position, his wife insane as she already was, was forced to work double time in her full time job as a one trick pony penny's worth of a play thing for the unfortunately poor.

On the upside of things, concernin the fate of the formerly lightest of the light families that still lived, Bill Weasley was promoted due to his sister's actions, the goblins apparently held a deep grudge against Hogwarts for some reason or another. Charlie Weasley was sacked from his job as a dragon keeper once news reached his workplace, it wouldn't do for them to have the brother of a up and coming dark lord lover to work with dangerous beasts. Furthermore his long time girlfriends dumped him, for fear that he too was a dark wizard, and since for some reason he did not try and take their innocence they believed that he was actually saving that for when he needed virgin sacrifices to his demonic god in exchange for some random dark favor. But aside from losing his job and his love life, he was hired by by a wealthy Romanian vampire clan to serve as their hunter of deadly and dangerous things, a job that though Charlie had previously tried to apply for and was always rejected. He finally got his dream job, at the cost of his first dream job, and his love life.

In short, the Weasley family had fallen from grace in one fell swoop, and Gilderoy Lockhart was exposed for the fraud that he was. Apparently he had a diary of his exploits, as well as information on the people that he had memory modified in the past.

It was an enlightening experince for the wizarding world, never believe everything you read.

While in the hospital wing, Harry finally took pity on his fellow students and dropped a piece of paper that looked to have been torn from a dark tome of some sort, the person that found it was happy to have found the informaiton sitting on their desk in the hospital wing. The conclusion that it was from some dark tome came from the numerous unreadable scirbbles writtin in the margins of the page, as well as the English instructions on how to cook a delicious house elf and mudblood stew.

After the students had finally been cured, they were all allowed to leave the school with their parents, and the ones whose parents were not there were told that they would be allowed to leave the school early in light of recent events, also because for some reason the house elves were unable to perform their duties, it was believed due to exposure to the cruciatus curse, probably performed on them by Ginevra Weasley to keep them quiet about her near deadly dealings which in the end backfired on her. No one bothered to wonder why the house elves eyes grew larger in fear at the mention of Harry's name, during the retelling of the tale of how the school was saved.

Harry left for home at the same time the other students did...
