Chapter one: Mystery singer
Draco Malfoy and his ever present goonies, Crabbe and Goyle, were stalking down the hallways of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Crabbe and Goyle were going because they wanted food to binge on later. Draco was going because he never trusted them out by themselves. As they rounded a corner, nearing the stairwell to the Astronomy Tower, Draco stopped them.
"Why're we stopping Draco? The kitchens aren't anywhere near here!" Crabbe whined.
"Shutup and listen you idiot!" Draco hissed. They all stood silently and listened intently. They could hear the faint sounds of someone singing. It sounded like someone was sitting at the top of the tower, singing very depressing lyrics.
"Hey god, why are you doing this to me?
Am I not living up to what I'm supposed to be?
Why am I seething with this animosity?
Hey god, I think you owe me a great big apology
Terrible lie
Terrible lie
Terrible lie
Terrible lie
Hey god, I really don't know what you mean.
Seems like salvation comes only in our dreams.
I feel my hatred grow all the more extreme.
Hey god, can this world really be as sad as it seems
Terrible lie
Terrible lie
Terrible lie
Terrible lie
Don't take it away from me.
I need someone to hold on to.
Don't take it away from me.
I need someone to hold on to
Hey god, there's nothing left for me to hide.
I lost my ignorance, security and pride.
I'm all alone in a world you must despise.
Hey god, I believed that promises, your promises and lies
Terrible lie
Terrible lie
Terrible lie
Terrible lie
You made me throw it all away.
My morals left to decay.
How many you betray.
You've taken everything
Terrible lie
Terrible lie
Terrible lie
Terrible lie
My head is filled with disease.
My skin is begging you please.
I'm on my hands and knees
I want so much to believe.
Don't take it away from me.
I need someone to hold on to.
Don't take it away from me.
I need someone to hold on to
I give you everything.
My sweet everything
Hey god, I really don't know who I am.
In this world of piss"
While the voice was singing, they had silently climbed the stairs of the tower so they could hear better. As they reached the top, the voice wavered on the last note, and stopped, sighing deeply. Draco, who had been trying desperatly to figure out who could be the one singing this melencholy song, finally decided that it must have been a Slytherin, because no one else in the school would be familiar with the muggle rock band Nine Inch Nails. Even though it definatly did not sound like any Slytherin's voice that he knew. However, it obviously must have been a Slytherin, so he stepped out on to the top of the tower, looking around. He gasped in surprise as he saw who it really was.
