Letters
Hi Ginny.
Do you remember those pens your brothers gave out for free my fifth year?
Guess what! I just found one and I'm starting to see their brilliance! They make the letter unreadable to anyone it isn't addressed to. I assume they had Voldemort in their mind wile producing it.
Reckon you've got one as well.
I only wanted to hear from you, wanted to make sure everything is ok.
I dreamed something rather ridiculous last night. You were in it, no surprise; I haven't received a Ginny free night since… well since last summer.
You were running. Running and running, faster and faster and I couldn't catch you. I was screaming your name but you ignored me at first. Then turning your head slightly you told me not to follow. Asking why you were running and were, you answered: My destination is beyond this world. My destination is death and pain. My destination is you!
Then you were running even faster and you started to fade away.
Next I know you are standing right ahead of me, not alone anymore. A young man is beside you, holding your hand. Smiling you began kissing Draco Malfoy.
The silliest dream I know, it frightened me though.
I guess it convinces me on one point; this is as dangerous for you as it is for me. I want you to stay out of this as long as you possible can. Promise me that!
And by the way, The Dursleys are okay. They are death frightened I will turn them all in to pork chops in a couple of weeks. They have nothing to worry; I presume I'm out on the street before I can even say "of age". Uncle Vernon will make sure of that. But until then they'll give me food and a bed so I really can't complain, can I.
My aunt Petunia is acting odd, giving me anxious glances every now and then. If I didn't know better; I'd say she's starting to see the danger in all of this.
Does it sound bizarre if I tell you I fair leaving them, fair turning 17.
They, or at least Petunia is the last shield I have left, in a couple of weeks I have noon. Leaving them is the same as leaving the last piece of safety I have left. Then there will be no return, I'll have to go out in battle, no one to stand between me and the Dark Lord.
"Past the point of no return".
Have you heard from Hermione anything?
Please respond
