Chapter 276: bringing professors to save Harry
But Hermione did not want to go with them and want to report to professor Flitwick to have him as extra insurance if things go out of hand.
They go to his room, only to find him frantically planning to run away.
When questioned on why such a talented wizard as himself is leaving, Lockhart admitted that he is a fraud who put Memory Charms on the people who really did the things that he claimed to have done in his books.
He then attempts to put a Memory Charm on the two boys as well, but they manage to disarm him and, under wand threats, take him to Moaning Myrtle's bathroom.
While they left Hermione went to the room of Professor Lockhart and stole all the valuable things including his secret stash directly.
After taking the things she went straight to the office of professor Flitwick and explained the situation and then took them to professor Mcgonagall's office.
With that the group increased and even Dumbledore moved.
All in all they moved to the bathroom where there is a passageway to the underground area.
On the other hand Harry and Ron talked with the ghost girl.
Moaning Myrtle explains her death, saying the last thing she saw was a pair of enormous eyes by one of the sinks, whose tap has never worked.
Harry finds a snake carved on the tap and then opens the entrance to the Chamber of Secrets by speaking Parseltongue to it.
Harry, Ron and Lockhart slide down a large pipe and find themselves in maze-like tunnels far under the school.
Down there, they encounter a snake skin left by the Basilisk.
Just then, Lockhart feigns fainting and he steals Ron's wand.
Victoriously proclaiming that he will erase Harry and Ron's memories and tell everybody they lost their sanity at the sight of Ginny's mangled body, Lockhart casts the Memory Charm.
Ron's broken wand causes the charm to backfire, erasing Lockhart's memory and causing a portion of the ceiling to cave in.
This traps Harry in the direction of the chamber and Ron in the direction of the castle.
Ron has no choice but to stay behind and clear a path through the rocks while Harry continues in search of Ginny.
Harry then encounters a wall with stone snakes on it, opens it by speaking Parseltongue, and enters the Chamber.
Right at that time Hermione brought over professor Dumbledore and other professors.
They used magic to remove the blockade that has just fallen and led the way inside.
They found a huge left over skin of the basilisk.
Harry finds himself standing at the end of a long dimly-lit giant hall.
At the far end by the foot of Slytherin's statue, he finds Ginny lying on the ground, pale and cold.
He drops his wand and runs to her, trying to get a response from her, but to no avail.
Tom Riddle approaches them, holding Harry's wand, and explains that his presence in the present is because he is a memory, which had been preserved in his own diary for fifty years.
He then reveals what has happened at that time.
At that time Hermione and other arrived at the giant door.
There is no way to open it easily.
So Hermione has to try and imitate the voice of Harry to talk is the snake language to let the door open.
Inside Harry is listening to the story of Tom riddle.
Riddle had opened the Chamber of Secrets fifty years ago and planned to purge the school of Muggleborns.
However, when he learned that the school was going to close down due to the attacks and that Dumbledore then the Transfiguration teacher was keeping a closer watch on him, he had no choice but to cease the attacks and frame Hagrid for doing it.
He eventually left behind a diary containing the memory of his sixteen-year-old self in hopes that it would, one day, fall into the hands of an unsuspecting victim who would help him to finish his work.
The diary ends up with that Ginny.
Riddle had written back sympathetically and Ginny grew to confess her fears, hopes and feelings to him.
She essentially poured some of her soul into him, which was exactly what he wanted.
He gradually grew more powerful and eventually managed to pour some of his soul back into her, possessing her and using her body to open the Chamber of Secrets, releasing the Basilisk that launched the new series of attacks and to write the threatening messages on the walls.
However, Ginny became suspicious of the diary and tried to dispose of it by flushing it down the toilet in Moaning Myrtle's bathroom.
This is when Harry found it.
When Ginny saw Harry with the diary on Valentine's Day, she panicked and worried that Riddle had told Harry about her role in the attacks, so she stole it back from his dormitory.
It began taking control of her again, but this time with the intention of killing Harry, so he had Ginny write her own farewell on the wall and come down to wait, luring Harry to the rescue and, consequently, his doom.
Riddle is angered that Harry managed to defeat the Dark wizard Lord Voldemort as a mere baby.
When Harry asks Riddle why he cares about it,
Riddle reveals that "Voldemort is his past, present and future."
He then writes the air with Harry's wand his full name, TOM MARVOLO RIDDLE, then waves the wand and the letters rearrange themselves into, I AM LORD VOLDEMORT.
...........
After some nonsense the battle started inside while outside Hermione and other are trying to break open the door with force.
Well how can Dumbledore save Harry if he could not get it?
If the door only opens to the snake language password then it would really be stupid.
So there is another way to open this and save Harry.
That is what they are trying to find right now.
