"We've already had one bairn petrified; we do not need anymore!" Minerva snapped in outrage. As always when she was angry her Scottish accent was much more noticeable.
"Do you know why Mr. Creevey was out after curfew, Minerva?" Pomona asked.
Minerva sighed. "When I questioned his roommates, they said he talked about sneaking down to the hospital wing to ask Mr. Woods if he could take his picture so he could show his parents when he went home for the holidays. In addition to being a big fan of Harry's; he's apparently a big fan of Oliver Wood's too."
"I am planning to floo to the Leaky Cauldron after classes on Monday and go into Muggle London if that is alright with you, Filius?"
"It sounds fine to me, Severus."
Dumbledore held out his hand for the camera. "I will keep this until Monday afternoon."
Severus handed him the camera. "Just make sure you do not open the back of it." He was not going to argue any longer with the headmaster. If he wanted to be an moron in front of his staff, so be it. He just hoped no more students would end up being petrified because Dumbledore was convinced it was a Slytherin doing it.
The next morning Severus pulled himself out of bed at his usual time of 6:00 am. He took a shower, got dressed, and read his potion journal until 7:00 after which he flooed Lucius. He knew he was probably up as Lucius like himself preferred to get an early start to the day.
"Good morning, Severus," Lucius said getting down in front of the fireplace in his study.
"Good morning Luc," Severus replied politely. "I have some bad news. It happened again last night only this time a student was petrified while attempting to sneak down to the hospital wing. He was found just after 1:00 am."
"Who was it?"
"A Gryffindor first year by the name of Colin Creevey. I do not know if Dumbledore will be flooing you later about this, but I thought I would give you a head's up in case."
"We governors will wait and see if Dumbledore does inform us, but if he doesn't, there is going to be hell to pay and he's going to be doing most of the paying. Thank you for letting me know, Severus."
"You are welcome Luc," Severus replied ending the call and getting up. He went upstairs to the Great Hall and walked in, his cloak billowing behind him. He greeted his snakes with nods and smiles as he made his way to the head table and sat down next to Lily.
"Is it true what everyone's saying about Colin Creevey?" Lily whispered.
"It is true. He was apparently on his way to the hospital wing when he was petrified. Mr. Filch found him and summoned Minerva who summoned Dumbledore and they got him to the hospital wing."
"This isn't good and nobody has any idea what might be doing it?"
Severus snorted. "Well of course the headmaster is convinced that it's one of my snakes doing it, but we will see."
"What do you mean?"
"Mr. Creevey had his camera with him and we are hoping that he was able to take a picture of his attacker before he was petrified. I am going to be taking the camera after class tomorrow to a Muggle photography shop to see if they can develop the film. Filius is coming with me as the headmaster is sure if there is a picture of the attacker and it is somebody in my house; I will destroy the picture to protect them."
"What! Is he completely off his rocker?"
Severus sighed. "I am definitely beginning to question his reasoning abilities."
All of a sudden, there was a lot of squawking as the mail owls flew in. A big fluffy one landed beside Harry's plate, carrying an envelope of cream colored parchment that Harry recognized as being from Gringotts. He had been receiving statements on his accounts since his mum had put four of the eight vaults she'd gotten from the Potter Account in his name. He took it from the owl, gave him a slice of bacon, and it took off. Harry opened the letter.
To: Harry Severus Evans Snape, formerly Harry James Potter
From: Silverclasp, Potter Account Manager
Dear Mr. Snape:
This letter is to inform you that your father, James Charlus Potter III has disowned you and you will no longer have access to any of the Potter vaults. If you have any concerns, please come to Gringotts and ask for me.
Sincerely,
Silverclasp
Potter Account Manager
Harry snorted and threw the letter on the table. He had disowned Potter months ago so he couldn't say he was sorry it was official.
What's going on, Harry?" Draco asked.
"Official letter from Gringotts telling me that Potter's disowned me. Like that's supposed to devastate me!" Harry sneered. "Fine with me; I didn't want anything to do with that git or Black anyway."
Vince chuckled. "Everybody's heard about what Professor Snape and your mum did to them yesterday."
"They deserved it all too," Harry said, but then chuckled. "It was pretty funny though."
Harry waited until after breakfast to show his dad and mum the letter from Gringotts.
"That stupid, arrogant piece of dragon dung!" Lily snapped. "I hope if he remarries he has all girls because only boys can inherit the Potter fortune."
"He's an idiot and has no appreciation for the fine son he already has," Severus said.
"That's because he just wanted a little clone of himself," Lily said.
"Well, I already disowned him months ago so I'm not going to shed any tears over it," Harry replied.
Severus and Filius stepped out of the Leaky Cauldron into Charing Cross Road where Severus hailed a Black Cab. They were both dressed in Muggle clothing. Filius was wearing black slacks, a white shirt, a light weight grey suit coat and black loafers while Severus was dressed in black slacks, a black T-shirt, and dragonhide boots and a dark green windbreaker. Severus hailed a Black Cab and they got in and Severus asked the driver to take them to the nearest camera store that developed film. After they were dropped off at Jessops on Oxford Street and the cab had left, Filius said. "So that is Muggle transportation? I must say you get to see a lot more than you do by any of our methods of travel."
