    Oooh, awesome! Does this mean voldemort is gone? Basilisk venom is one the few things that can kill a horcrux, so would it kill that remaining fraction of Voldemort's soul? Will Quirrell survive?

    I will look forward to the next chapter!

    Author's Response: As in the canon, Voldemort fled his host before the venom could destroy him, so no luck there, I'm afraid. However, that did give Quirrell a chance to plead his innocence. I'm afraid I can't answer your last question, as that information might be considered a 'spoiler' lol! Thanks for the review.

    Very nice chapter! I can't wait to see Severus reaction to Harry's adventure, hehe... I think Harry is in one very BIG trouble! =O)
    Update soon!

    Author's Response: Thanks ^^ I'm glad you enjoy it. Just to mystify you further, I can tell you that Harry won't be in as much trouble as he anticipates, but that will be cold comfort.

    Ooooooooooooh! What an INTERESTING chapter!!! If Quirrell himself wasn't evil, I hope Harry can save him! Can't wait to see what's next!

    Author's Response: Thanks for the review, I'm glad you enjoyed it ^^

    At least, Harry was able to prevent the theft of the Stone and resisted Voldemort's attempt to sway him with lies. It was quite interesting to see what the Dagger was able to accomplish. It's clear that it was far from ordinary, even by Wizarding standards! I wonder how different things might have turned out if he hadn't had that dagger?
    Will Harry's tears save Quirrell? I feel it would be a wonderful thing if they do, as it appears that Quirrell might not have been as willing as some might think. It would probably lesson the trauma that Harry will suffer from this confrontation as well.

    Author's Response: Thanks for the review. Without the Dagger, which bore the same stones, metal and insignia as Slytherin's locket, the interview with Voldemort would probably have been somewhat similar to that of the canon; despite the provocation, gaining the Philosopher's Stone was Quirrell's first object, so he would have ignored Harry then, on Voldemort's suggestion, forced the child to look into the mirror. Harry, having gained the Stone, would have tried to escape, Quirrell would have pursued him and, Hissy, having heard the commotion, would arrive in the room in time to save Harry. However, the Dagger bought Harry a lot of time and, thereby, allowed him to learn a little about Voldermort, who did his level best to gain Harry as an ally. Moreover, the dagger showed Voldemort that Harry was Slytherin's chosen heir and that, within Hogwarts, Harry has both the basilisk and Slytherin on his side.

    Wonderful. I love your well-thought out parseltongue. It really is amazing to read how a snake might think.

    Thanks for the speedy update. I enjoyed the chapter immensely.

    Author's Response: Thanks. I adore snakes and it's really interesting, once you spend time with them, to see how they react to events and interact with people. Far from being cold, slimy and dishonest, they're very straightforward, affectionate and beautiful creatures ^^. I'm glad you enjoyed the chapter.

    Yet another cliffy!!!! Well I loved it. Draco, Blaise and Theo are quite the young gentalmen. I hope that Hermonie will be able to get to a hold of a trustable adult quickly and that young Harry will prevail. I wonder what Severus and Lucius will do to their offspring?!?!?! I suspect that the Dark Lord himself will pale in comparison to those two's reactions at their children running off to face danger! Great story looking forward to the next chapter.

    Author's Response: Thanks ^^ I'm glad you enjoyed it: the end of the six trials (Reaching the Corridor, Fluffy, Devil's Snare, Keys, Chess and Potions- troll doesn't really count as he was knocked out), seemed a natural place to break off and it coincided with the canon nicely. I agree; Lucius and Severus will be most displeased by the children's heroics. Slytherins tend to consider the word 'hero' to be synonymous with 'idiot' lol!

    WONDERFUL chapter!!! LOL at Draco!

    “Well I think it was a very good idea” snapped Draco “It was one of mine, after all.” Hehe - too funny!

    I hope Harry will be ok in your version too! Can't wait for the next chapter!

    Author's Response: Thanks for the review; there's something about children and swords; I'm reminded of a beautiful quote from 'Hogfather', by Terry Pratchett;

    "“You can’t give her that!” she [the mother] screamed. “It’s not safe!”
    IT’S A SWORD, said the Hogfather. THEY’RE NOT MEANT TO BE SAFE.
    “She’s a child!” shouted Crumley.
    IT’S EDUCATIONAL.
    “What if she cuts herself?”
    THAT WILL BE AN IMPORTANT LESSON."

    Draco never stops halfway...
    He has to do everything with style (and swagger)!

    Author's Response:

    Thanks for the review. Yup, I think the best adjective for Draco is 'flashy': he loves to look impressive. However, I think when he realised just whose sword he has been showing off with, he might lose a little swagger lol!

    Hermione IS the best choice to return and not because of her admitted vulnerabilities; she is the one most able to gain the adults understanding of what is going on and, as the most sensible of the children, the one that they are most likely to listen to.

    I wanted to shake my head when Draco made his selection of weapon, but I kind of expected that at least one of the children would choose one that was inappropriate. I have a feeling that the dagger that Harry chose was the perfect choice and I cannot wait to see how it will help him in this quest that he has so foolishly (but I do admit, understandably) taken on. I just hope that all will turn out alright in the end.

    Author's Response: Thanks. Draco is very image conscious and, therefore, a big flashy sword is, naturally, the ideal choice- in his eyes at least. The Dagger is important but you'll just have to wait for tonight's chapter to discover why ;)

    Awesome chapter, Morgana! I've caught up finally and I love how you've woven the canon events into your story. I'm glad that Harry has such good friends who are willing to stand by him no matter what, but I have a feeling that Severus is going to be most upset when he discovers how Harry has risked his life.

    Looking forward to more!

    Author's Response: Thanks ^^ I'm glad you're enjoying it :) I think that the children in this fic will recieve rather sterner punishments than the canon lol!
