Oh! Ya almost forgot to tell you, this takes place at the end of the second book, after Harry returns from the
chamber with Ginny. PLEASE NOTE THAT THE STORY DOESN'T TAKE PLACE AFTER THE 3RD BOOK IT IS JUST THIS CHAPTER.
Chapter one: A child
Dumbledore sat staring at his desk in near shock, this whole time every thing had been right under his nose.
The girl must have lost all faith in him by now; he let this go on for so long when the answers were right
there the whole time. She had been through so much in the past year, the pain she must have gone through
would leave no physical scars. On the other hand, she would have the hardiest time recovering from the
mental aspect of it all, and it would never go away completely. Now that she is finally out of the hell she had
to go through, Dumbledore thought, I had more bad news. She would have to live with this burden now.
Although she has had the burden her whole life, knowing about it would make everything so much worse,
living in a life of fear, but of unimaginable power as well. How could he have not seen it before, it was so
obvious, why else would Voldemort have chosen her to take down into the chamber? There were plenty of
smaller, weaker children in the school, it would have been so much easier to take any of them rather than
her, but he chose her. He chose her because of who she is, the force she contains, the power that not even
she knows of.
Dumbledore would have never jumped to these conclusions if it were not for the evidence that supported it.
It was not until Dumbledore took a visit to the chamber himself that he believed his worst nightmare. While
looking over the various things Tom had the girl bring down the chamber. He came upon a small book that
the girl had obviously stolen from the restricted part of the library, not that it was truly her fault.
Nonetheless, this book contained information of an ancient myth, which now seemed more of a reality than
myth. From the blood stained rags and charts tacked to the wall, it was apparent that Tom had made the girl
test her own blood. What else had Tom made the girl do? Dumbledore did not even begin to think
about it.
But why would Voldemort want to take her life, Voldemort knows that it is almost impossible to locate the
others, he would never be able to find the replacement once she had died. Yet, Voldemort is not stupid, he
had a reason, a reason Dumbledore could not even begin to concoct. In addition to this, how did he come
upon the girl in the first place, it could not have been purely chance. What scared Dumbledore the most was
not knowing what the Dark Lord was thinking, or his reasons behind his (Voldemorts) actions. Knowing
Voldemort may still have a plan for the child made every bone in his body crawl with fear. How was he
supposed to protect her? The headmaster was responsible for keeping the children safe while they attended
school, a responsibility he had failed to act on efficiently during the past year. Even if Dumbledore knew
what to protect her from, how would he? She was more powerful than he was, he would probably only make
the situation worse. Dumbledore hated having no say in the matter.
He could not teach the girl to protect herself; there is but one person alive that knew how to use that kind of
power, and Dumbledore would never trust him again. How are you supposed to tell a twelve-year-old girl that
she is one of the most sought after people in the wizarding world? If the word got out about who she was,
she would be taken away from her family and friends to be executed by the ministry; that is after they did
some research, The girl would go over the edge, fall into shock for sure, especially after what she went
through this past year. Yes the girl was strong, he had to give her that, but there are some things that
children should not have to handle on their own, this was one of them; unfortunately she will have
to handle this on her own.
Power is greed , Dumbledore thought, the girl didn't seem like the type that would ever use her
power for evil; then again he had felt the same way about Voldemort. The Ministry was unbelievably
dimwitted. They know that everything is going to end one day, putting it off seemed to be hurting more
people than saving.
So many people will want to use her, the good and the bad; she will be in danger her whole life. Power
corrupts the mind, turns good into bad, makes demons out of believers and turns the innocent into murders.
Even the mere vision of such power has driven some to irrational decisions, insanity and suicide. So much
power should never be given to a child, but it was, and there is no way she could ever live a normal life.
After much consideration, Dumbledore came to his conclusion. He will tell her parents and her parents only,
they needed to know what kind of danger she was in, to help her if she ever needs it, and for the sake of
everyone, he hoped she never did need it. Hopefully they will understand, Dumbledore thought. In
the past, those who have found someone of the 'infection', have been known send even their own children to
be 'removed from a position of danger to the society'. He could not imagine the girl's parents ever doing a
thing like that. Maybe, Dumbledore mused, if no one knows who she is, she can live a normal life never
knowing.
Or, at least for a while.
