after a few hours Alex got the news from Drusilla that the issue with ministry is settled after explaining what happened in the letter clearly and also she excluded the details of Alex , fenrir greyback is now gathering forces and co-operating with vampires to build a settlement in the forest.
Alex is now focussing on horcruxes and inheritance of founders , except Rowena all others inheritance needs certain things left behind by them. Slytherin's inheritance needs his locket and Helga Hufflepuff's inheritance needs the cup. Griffindor needs the source his father's group used to make the map.
the horcrux diadem is fixed and the others aren't in Hogwarts, he asked Sirius Black to take him to grimmauld place to get the locket but didn't told them about and make an excuse of want to see Sirius's home , but his parents rejected it and also black is against it. the cup is in lestrange vault, he can't get access to it and also nagini isn't a horcrux yet, the gaunt ring is maybe in the great gaunt ancestral home or any other place with voldemort's past. he need to act quickly to destroy voldemort and send him off to goddess Rachel.
Alex decided to push his thoughts away and he decided to go to the party with Cho and Hermione. that is a big mistake as Cho pinched him when she saw Hermoine and Hermione is also looking at Cho with a never back down gaze. he could see some sparks between them. they both clung to his hands.
when going to the party they saw Harry and Ron going to the 4 th floor corrider and Hermione rushed to stop them, Alex and Cho also followed her, but Harry and Ron are curious about the secret and Harry unlocked the door using alohomora, by the time Hermoine, Alex and Cho reached them they are standing infront of a Cerberus.
the Cerberus wanted to pound and eat them, Alex stepped in and knocked the dog away with stupefy and used the bewitched sleep spell to put Cerberus into deep sleep, Alex motioned everyone to get out of there and he also slowly went out of the door , locking the sleepy dog.
Alex and Hermione glared at Harry and Ron, before they yell Harry and Ron told them they got lost and entered the floor and the door at the end made them curious, so they both entered it.
after hearing the explanation Hermoine began to yell at them and Alex took her out of there by force hugging and lifting her from behind, he motioned the Harry and Ron to come along with them.
Harry and Ron followed them and Ron is looking at Alex as if he stole something from him, Ron even don't know why he is feeling that and Hermione who is hugged by Alex and dragged away is now shyly following him and Cho is now giving Alex a gaze as if to tear him to pieces.
Alex just ignored them both and warned Harry not to do dangerous things, Harry replied saying he saw Snape going into the corridor, and now Hermione is interested is in this.
Alex just reminded them about the warning and told them Snape is a professor , so he can enter to check if anybody goes there.
Harry , Hermoine and Ron are suspicious about this and they decided to observe snape and Hermione said the dog is guarding something since she saw a basement trap door under its paw.
Alex decided not to push it any further and all of them went towards the kitchen. Cho and Hermione begin their competition of Alex again and Harry, Ron is awkward with this atmosphere. Harry and Ron wondered what happened to the miss know-it-all aura of Hermoine as she is now competing for a boy.
Ron is whispering to Harry about Alex," you're brother will die someday, if he doesn't convince the girls, be prepared with a grave to him". Harry and Ron snickered after that and Alex gave them a suspicious eye.
