A/N: Hello, this has been sitting on my laptop for a while and I figured, what the hell, might as well post it. So here I am, writing this. This will be a slower plot with romance. I'm planning on the two main pairings being Bill and Fleur along with Harry and Blaise. So it will be slashish. If you don't like that, then don't read. This will probably go through all of the years and perhaps a bit more. About a fourth of it is done, I think. So read, review, fav, and follow please. And I do like reviews that have opinions and constructive criticism.

Chapter 1: The Pyramid

The pyramid was amazing. Never in a million years had Harry ever thought that he would be given the chance to travel to Egypt, but the Weasely's had actually invited him along because he had saved Ginny from the Chamber of Secrets just a few months ago. Harry wouldn't have asked to go, he didn't even know about what was going on. But Ron had insisted that he come, and so he did. It was the first time that he had been away from the Dursely's for the summer, and he was going to make the most of it without thinking about them.

They had been touring the pyramids for the past three days, and Harry had never had so much fun in his life, nor had he learned so much in such a short amount of time. Already he had sent off Hedwig to Professor McGonagall and had changed his electives to Runes and Arithmacy instead of Divination. But Harry did keep Care of Magical Creatures.

What had prompted this change was mostly because of the meeting of Ron's two eldest brothers Bill and Charlie. They had shown him why they were classes that he should be taking instead of just taking the easy way out. As it was he had been sucking up all the rune and dragon knowledge that they had been telling him since they had met. Not that they minded; their younger siblings hadn't shown much interest in their jobs, and their mother honestly didn't know the half of what they actually did on a daily basis.

It was clear to the older two Weasely's that Harry was thirsty for any knowledge or attention, and so they had taken the time to speak with him about different subjects and found that he was a good student. Though they both also seemed to notice how small he was. They both had noticed the lack of concern with the others making them both believe that the small shy boy was acting as he always was. It concerned them both, but they knew that there was probably nothing that they could do about it. So they had simply given him knowledge and attention when they could. The slight stiffening whenever someone made a move too close to him was also something that they both ignored seeing and tried to remedy at the same time.

The two had accepted him as a part of the family, as a little brother that they would be able to help along. One that just happened to not be a redhead, but that didn't matter to them. They just wanted that los look that he had around him to go away.

On a brighter note, both brothers also had noticed that the boy was studiously trying to ignore the staring of their youngest sibling and only sister. Bill and Charlie had found themselves with the twins laughing about it as they watched him inch away from the girl who was enamored with him. Laughing at it for the time being the four had started off amused, but soon they were going to take pity on the boy. They all understood her fascination and adoration as hero worship; something the small black haired boy didn't want.

In a silent agreement they had separated the two as Bill steered Harry to the wall and uncovered the magic laid runes to show him just what it was that they had to work with, throwing in a funny story about a trap here and there just because. Also he showed how the runes were layered to change the meanings and amplify certain aspects.

It worked only because Ginny had no interest in ruins at all. This was also the second pyramid that they had visited and because they were sure that they had dealt with all of the curses, the families of the curse breakers were allowed to explore to their heart's content. With the traps dismantled and the valuables handed over to the bank, and the lesser valuables handed to the muggle museums, the sight was declared open. It was a once in a lifetime opportunity that none of the public would be given.

Though, in this one Bill did have his eye out. They had scoured the place and had gotten all of the traps that they could find, however, there had been talk about some sort of room that they hadn't found in the various run-throughs that they did. It was spoken of briefly in the entrance were there had been a slight overview of the important rooms, but it had never been found.

A few of his colleagues thought that they had perhaps forgotten to build it, or that the room had been a decoy to waste the time of those searching. Either way none had found the barest hint of the room. With all of that said, they found it very unlikely that anyone would be able to find something that they had missed. They had thought that an impossibility. But he was still on edge seeing as it was his family inside of this place and not random curse breakers that knew their way around a trap or ward.

"What are these?" Harry asked after the curse breaker had finished a story as he pointed to some lines of a swiggly looking witting that was framing some hieroglyphs on the far wall of the inner chamber where most of the loot had been stored before they had taken it out to be analyzed by the goblins and the senior members of the crew.

"A mystery so far," Bill answered with a wistful smile. It was clear that he took a lot of pride in his job. "They pop up at random places in a few digs, but no one has been able to find out what they are so far. At first they were thought to be some form of decoration, but it is seen in so many different places that the style at least should be different, but it is not. That is one of the few things that make this job so much fun; there are still many things to discover and to catalogue."

Bill would have gone on, but he was being called by his father. If he had waited just a few more minutes he would have been amazed to find out what happened next. Feeling a sense of familiarity, Harry leaned forward and traced the pattern with his finger before reading it and letting out a hiss of parseltongue while reading.

"Here lies a secret for only those whom speak the noble tongue. Lord of serpents, and true speaker you be, welcome to the lost chamber." Harry read. Harry thought nothing of it. He had been told that everything was cleared and that anywhere that might have a problem would be marked. He didn't think that reading aloud would do anything. He hadn't even realized that he had been reading the language of the snakes that had been in written form.

Ron had heard the start of the hiss and had whipped around enough to watch as a door seemed to come from the wall and Harry was sucked through the opening and disappeared in a blinding flash. "Harry!" He called out loudly to his friend as he ran towards where his friend had gone.

Bill had just enough warning to yell at Ron and stop him with an arm wrapped around his waist before he could get into the new chamber, lifting the smaller Weasely off the ground while stopping him. "Ron, no! You can't go in there, we haven't cleared it, and no one was supposed to find anything new! Charlie, get John! I need the crew in here ASAP! And I know you will worry, but I need you guys out!" He said firmly to his family as he acted quickly.

"But Harry, he is in there! He got sucked in right after he finished talking!" Ron yelled as he struggled against his brother's arms uselessly.

Bill started for a moment as he looked from the new doorway with fascination and worry to his youngest brother as his eyes scrunched up slightly. "What did he say?"

"I don't know!"

"Ron, this is important, I need to know what he said to have gotten into that room!" Bill pressed as he turned Ron so that he could look into his brother's eyes. Every little word would have to be analyzed as though it held the key to the room. It would tell them what they needed to save the small raven haired boy.

"I don't know! It was in parseltongue! I don't know what he said!" Ron said with worry in his eyes. Ginny gasped from where she was standing by their parents as everything stilled for a moment. Everyone was looking to where the place where the youngest boy of their group had disappeared into. Harry was going to be turning thirteen in a week, and this was not what the twelve year old needed at the moment.

"Harry is a parseltongue?" Bill asked and saw Ron nod his head along with the twins, Percy, and Ginny. They had all seen the commotion that it had caused when the school had found out about it at the dueling club that the idiot of a defense professor had started. There had been sheer panic when word got out that the Savior of the wizarding world could talk to snakes.

"Then the writing must have been in a script form of the snake language. And since the door is still open we can get to him, but you need to wait for my team to do it, alright? We have the knowledge to get to him, but you do not. Let us handle it." Bill asked his family as he took charge of them. When they nodded he turned to Charlie who had just come back with the man he had sent for and the other brother got the hint and started to herd the large redheaded family towards the door.

Bill was now in full work mode as the rest of his team that hadn't been too far away came in and they started to examine the new room to figure out how to save the boy from one of their own mistakes. It was their job to make sure that nothing that was there could hurt the visitors, and they had deemed the pyramid safe. So they would have to fix it had hope that the boy would be perfectly alright until they could get to him.

As they attacked the hieroglyphs and runes in the place with a fever, the entire team couldn't help but feel a sense of guilt at the thought that they had missed something that had put someone at risk. It was only made worse when they were told that it was just a child on top of that.

A/N: There you go. Now I would like it if you would tell me what you think of it. Thanks!
