].

Alex dropped a jaw when saw this information about the locket. isn't this locket offering many advantages, why would voldemort turn such a thing into horcrux. also after seeing the effect inheritance key , he is happy and puzzled, it only says one of the inheritance, that means some places other than Hogwarts also has his inheritance.

Alex is not surprised, he read that the members of gaunt family opened one of the inheritance of Slytherin. so he isn't surprised by this.

Alex after looking at the locket sighed , he is thinking about snake language, this is what he is missing from the start, the snake language to open the chamber, to control the basilisk and also to activate this locket.

Alex then slept the night and tomorrow is Christmas, he wakes up to find massive pile of gifts for him. his mother Lily gave him pair of shoes from muggle world , his father gifted him a nimbus 2000, Harry gave him a box of chocolates, Cho sent him a black leather jacket, Hermione sent him a quill that has beautiful unicorn patterns, George and Fred sent him a firework that will rain toffees when blow up, McGonagall gave him a magazine and letter inviting him to the transfiguration club, flitwick sent him his notebook at schooldays and also invited him into his spell club, professor snape gave him the half-blood prince notebook as a gift, professor sprout sent him a rose that will absorb sunlight and turn into a red crystal rose at night, he also got some gifts from his admirers and little fanclub, they also asked him to sign them his autograph when he arrived at school.

Lily looked at Alex gifts and also the fans club letter about his autograph and said," oh! it looks like my little Alex now has too many girlfriends, care to introduce them to me?".

Alex smiled wryly and said nothing, Harry on the other hand has a smirk and said," he now has two girlfriends mom, and we met them both, they are Cho Chang and Hermione Granger". Alex looked at his brother who sold him off without a thought and glared daggers, but he suddenly felt a touch on his shoulder and turned back to realise Lily is smiling at him with murderous eyes. she said," let's discuss about them privately shall we?".

not only Alex but Harry and James are also shivering from Lily's gaze and prayed secretly for Alex. Harry is now regretting his choice of selling of his brother, because he know Alex is not the type to let this off hook so easily.

after an hour of discussing about Cho and Hermione, Lily let go of Alex , he sighed in relief and swear to get back to Harry when he finds a chance. christmas eve was celebrated in potter manor with decorating christmas tree. Alex spent his holidays happily and the golems became popular not only with kids but also adults, wizards in the muggle world are especially interested since they are not allowed to use magic outside Hogwarts and showing them to the parents who have a surprised look in, several parents are jealous of their children becoming a magic user.
