Emily stood there for a second, looking at the bogart she quickly made her way over to were Earl had gone. "Earl...were you going.." she said going behind the wordeobe. She sood by the door way watching Earl walk up to a large old tome.
He opened the book. It was written in English for him. But not for anyone else. (It's Parseltongue as a written language)
Emily looked over his shoulder curious to what the book said. Although when she tried to read it, she couldn't. "What language is this?....never seen it before..." she said
"What are you talking about it's in English." Earl said.
"Its not Earl....that is not English at all...or any other languages I know of..." Emily commented. "Maybe Alyssa would know"
"No seriously. It's English look." He started reading what he though was English. She heard parseltongue.
Emily lifted and eyebrow questionably as Earl insisted that the book was written in English. She was suprised when he started to read out loud the words. "Earl...thats not English...not even close to it......your speaking in Parseltongue..." she said
"I... What?" He asked. "What the hell is that?"
"Parseltongue...its the language of snakes...means you can talk to snakes and snake creatures...although..." Emily's face went from amazment to a worried one. "...I only ever heard it when I was very tiny...I got in trouble by my nanny for ease dropping some guests my father had other once..." she looked at him seriously " It might be best if you dont let many people know you can do this....I could not find much about it in my home's library, but I know its a signed of a dark wizard and its a trait not many people like..."
"But... I'm no dark wizard." He said.
"I know your not Earl...but others might ....as Parseltongue being a rare trait, that only dark wizards are known to have.."
He nodded. "Alright. I understand." He said closing the book. "But I'm keeping this."
"Oh okay..." Emily replied "I'm curious now to see if the libary here has anything about Parseltongue" she thought out loud
"Yes it does." Allysa said as they walked by, "Why are you curious about the language." He said
"Oh okay" Emily replied as Alyssa td her that indeed there were books on the subject. "Just just because" she added.
Alyssa looked at her with suspicion.
Emily gave her a small smile, as Alyssa looked at her with suspicion. And just walked down the hall with the others.
Earl put the book in his bag not telling anyone,
Later that day when everyone went their separate ways after dinner, Emily made her why to the libary. She went through the aisles of books looking for a book.
There was nothig in the normal section. Alyssa hadn't mentioned that she had frequently used teacher's notes to look in the restricted section.
Emily had spent a whole two hours looking throughout the whole normal section and nothing, but just a mear mention of Parseltongue. Although nothing that really told her anything more than it just being a very rare and dark language. Emily sighed as she stood outside of the restricted section of the library. Her face at a frown knowing that she couldn't go in.
Madam Pince peered at her from her desk.
Emily looked over noticing Madam Pince looking over at her, she smiled nervously taking a few steps back from the entrance to the restricted section.
Pince went back to what she was doing
Emily sighed feeling defeated as she walked out of the library making her way back to her dorm
