What To Do Now?: Read on, my lovelies :)
When I woke up, I realized that I was no longer on the hard floors of the Gryffindor corridors, instead, I was in a soft but firm bed and it was white everywhere... Where was I?
"Oh, good! Your awake! I'll go and alert your friends" I turned my head just in time to see the nurse, Madam Lustford, turning around and heading off into the other direction. If Lustford was here then that must mean that I'm in the Hospital Wing... Damn it!
"Tom? Tom! He's awake? Is he okay?" I heard a female voice coming from about 20m away from my bed, but I couldn't see who is was because my blinds are closed
"Yes, dear! He's fine. You should get to Lunch now. Tom won't be out until at least dinner" I heard Lustford tell the girl
"But I thought you said he was fine?" Orion's voice asked. Orion was here? How did he know? And it's lunch now? I've been un-conscious for quite some time, then
"He is fine, but Mr. Riddle will stay here, just so I can see if he is able to leave without any supervision" Lustford informed Orion and the girl. I had a feeling that there was someone else there as well
"C'mon, guys! Let's just go! Tom will be out in a few hours and then we can see him!" I knew it! There is someone else there! HAHA! I'm so smart
"Just because you hate him, doesn't mean that we do! Just go on ahead and we'll catch up to you!" The girl snarled at the other boy. I heard a whimper and the sound of retreating footsteps. Madam Lustford then came back into my little room and handed me two potions, one blue and one yellow
"Drink up, Tom! The blue one is a pain relief potion and the yellow one is to help heal your chest" She told me and exited again. I curiously looked down at my chest and noticed that there was a thick layer of bandages on it. Why didn't she just heal it with magic? Oh, right. Un-forgivable curses are magical-healing-proof, therefore have to heal naturally. I drunk my potions and settled down into my bed and tried to hear if Orion and the girl were still here... Seems they were
"I'm sorry" Said the girl "But I'm not leaving until Tom has fully recovered and is out and about!" This girl seemed to really care about me. I hope it's not Myrtle McMeare... She's a little creepy... Stupid Mudblood. She follows me everywhere, I wouldn't be surprised if it was her. But I really did not expect it to be...
"No, she's right. We'd better get to class, Luna" Luna! She was forcing the medi-witch to let her stay until I was let out. But why? She was really angry at me yesterday... Note to self: Ask her why that is
"No, Orion! I'm staying weather you like it or not! You can go to class but I think that I shall stay here until Tom recovers. It is my fault he's in here, anyway" I heard Orion mumbling a bit and then I think he left. Luna is still here! Good! But why? What is with this girl?
"Okay, Miss Lovegood. You can stay here, but let me just change Tom's bandages and then you can sit with him, okay?" I think Luna must have nodded because then Madam Lustford came back to my bed with some white and clean bandages and let out a tired sigh
"I've been awake since last night" She told me "Do you know why I haven't slept?"
"No, I don't. Should I?"
"Because of those new kids. I was just sitting here, brewing a potion and minding my own business when all of a sudden BOOM" She threw her arms out dramatically "The doors burst open and come running in is that girl and behind her was her brother whom was holding you un-conscious in his arms and your chest was bleeding, badly" She said as she started to take my bandages off "They laid you on this bed and the girl commanded me to heal you. I've never heard a student use that type of voice with an adult. I healed you as best as I could. I was able to stop the blood flow but the wound wouldn't close. I asked them how it happened and the girl told me" Lustford paused for a bit to dab some stuff on my wound "She told me that she did something bad" She shook he head, tears were sliding down her cheek
"What was so bad that she did?" I asked. Of course I knew the answer but I want to hear it from someone else
Lustford started putting on the new bandages "She said that she used the Cruciatus Curse on you. Of course I got a little scared about then. This girl was associated with the dark arts. After I healed you as best as I could, I told her to leave, and you know what she did?" I shook my head. Of course I didn't know, I was un-conscious! "She threatened me with her wand and said 'I've fought 10 death eaters who are no match to you and I got out alive so I think that if you want yourself to stay healthy and full, you will let me stay here' Seriously, what are death eaters? Well, then her brother calmed her down and we've been having the same argument ever since" She finished up replacing my bandages and walked away. What are death eaters? Cool name, though! I might call my 'followers' that :)
My blinds then slammed open and revealed the Lovegood girl "Tom? Tom! Your okay!" She ran to my bed and pulled me into a hug
"Ouch!" I murmured. That hurt!
"Oh My God! I'm SO sorry!" She said as she let go of me and sat down in the chair that was behind her. She rested her head in her hands and let out a sigh "I'm so thankful that your okay"
"Didn't I tell you that it didn't hurt that much?" She lifted her head slowly and looked me in the eye. Luna looked sad
"Do you love me, Tom?" I stiffened at her question. What did Orion tell her? If he told her everything then I can't lie but then if I tell her the truth and Orion said nothing... OMG! This is annoying, I guess i'll just have to tell her
"Yes" I whispered, unable to make my voice any louder. Luna then sat up straight and had a smile on her face
"No, you don't" She told me, still smiling
"Umm... Yes, I do. I think I would know when I'm in love, Luna" I said, looking at her confused. What's she on about? Doesn't she want me to love her? This is weird. Really weird
"No, honestly, you don't! There were a mixture of Whackspurts and Nargles in your brain, causing you to think that your in love, and since I was the only suitable person near by, they chose me" She said in a matter-of-fact tone, I cocked my head to the side. Whackspurts? Nargles? What the hell is she on about?
"Look, Luna. It wasn't those creatures in my brain that made me think that I was in love with you. I could feel the love, you know" She had a worried look on her face before getting up and kissing me on the forehead
She pulled away and looked me in the eye "I think" She paused "That we should remain friends. What do you think?"
"No. I want you to be my girlfriend and I want to love you" I told her. I rested a hand on her cheek and looked at her lips before everting my eyes to the roof, wiling a mistel-toe to appear. No such luck. Damn
"Now, Tom... You know that that cannot happen" She told me calmly. My eyes met hers again and it felt like she was looking into my soul
"And why not?" I challenged. But it looked like she already had an answer
"You DO know that we met yesterday, right?" She stood up straight and made her way to my blinds but stopped just before the gap "It would never work out anyways, Tom. Your too dangerous" And with that, Luna walked out of my space and out of the Hospital Wing. I felt my face get wet, was I crying? I reached up to touch my face, and funnily enough, I was.
"LUNA!!" I yelled at the top of my voice before blacking out again. Darkness covering my vision with only one thought in my mind "I love you, Luna Lovegood"
1996 Voldemort POV:
"Bellatrix! Step forward!" I snarled. Bella staggered through the line of Death Eaters and kneeled down before me. We (the death eaters and myself) were in the grave yard. The same one where the Potter brat escaped my grasps! Damn it!
"My Lord! Please! Accept my forgiveness!" She pleaded, sobbing loudly, thinking that it would soften me up. She was wrong
"Tell me, Lestrange. Who was there fighting with Potter?" I asked, merely curios as to whom were these evil brats that defeated my followers
"Well, there were his gang, the Weasley and the Mudblood, Granger." I nodded my head, telling her to continue "And there was the Weasley's younger sister and the Longbottom boy" I stopped her for a second
"The Auror's son? Neville Longbottom?" She nodded her head quickly and continued "And there was this blond girl, but I didn't catch her name" Hmm... Disappointing indeed
"Severus!" Snape then came forward and stood next to Bellatrix, but he did not kneel, knowing all too well that it was not what I wanted at this moment "Do you know the name of this girl?" He nodded his head slowly
"Her name is Luna Lovegood, my Lord" Luna? No, it couldn't be...
"Who tortured the girl?" I asked. Bellatrix then put her hand up, smiling
"I did, my Lord. I tortured the ungrateful little-" She was unable to finish she sentence
"Crucio!" I said, pointing my wand at her. She screamed and her body spazed up uncontrollably. She was jerking around on the floor, screaming for me to stop. I did stop after a few minutes. She slowly got up, leaning on Snape for support "You tortured a LOVEGOOD!" I yelled at her. Fury rising up inside me. What if that was my beloved Luna's granddaughter or something? Although, it doesn't surprise me that she has befriended Potter... How ironic
"I wasn't aware that you wished us not to hurt the child, my Lord" I calmed down a bit. At least the girl isn't dead
"Snape! I want you to go up to the school and bring Lovegood to me. I need to talk to her" Snape nodded and disapperated. I looked at Bellatrix with hard eyes "I heard that you also caused the downfall of Sirius Black?" She nodded slowly, unsure if that was the right answer as well or not. Fury bubbling in me again. DAMN IT, BELLATRIX!! Can't you ever get something right?
"Is that okay, my Lord?" She asked. I turned my head slowly towards her, staring into her eyes. Her black eyes immediately got wide as she realized that saying yes was probably the worse thing she had ever done in her life
"You are aware who Sirius Black's father was, right?" She nodded her head quickly
"My uncle Orion. He was your most trusted and loyal servant until he was killed an a raid, my Lord"
"And do you know why Orion Black was my most trusted and loyal servant, Bella?"
"I'm afraid I do not know, my Lord"
"How disappointing. If you knew, you never would have killed Sirius. Did you know that I was there at Black's birth? And yours?" She shook her head "The reason why Orion Black was my most trusted is because he was my best friend" Bellatrix then gasped, covering her mouth with her hands "I swore to him that I would protect his sons if he did not make it back from the raid. And when I found his dead body, I said to myself that until they die of natural causes, I will protect my best friend's sons. So far, Regulus is safe. But Sirius... Is dead, and I have failed your uncle" How I wanted to kill her right now, wanted to make her suffer, to burn her and torture her until she dies a slow, painful death
"I'm so terribly sorry, my Lord! I did not know! If I knew, I never would have killed him!" Bellatrix begged. She got on her knees and clasped her hands together as if in prayer. I raised my wand, the killing curse on my lips. But I was unfortunately distracted my a silver Doe walking towards me, then Snapes voice rung loudly and clearly through the grave yard
"I cannot my Lord... She is not here, Lovegood is on a mission for Dumbledore" I yelled in fury. How am I meant to see if she's alright if she's not here! DAMN IT! I ran towards the Doe and casted my own patronus. Out came a silvery snake
"Tell Snape to look for her, torture Dumbledore if has to. I need to know where the Lovegood girl is" The patronus nodded and disappeared. I walked away, continued walking. Walked a bit further, a bit more. Okay, here is fine. I was standing over my father's grave. I heard my followers behind me but I didn't say anything
"Are you okay, my Lord?" Goyle asked. But I didn't turn to him, I didn't even answer him. I just stared at my father's tomb stone
"You BASTARD!" I yelled at it "YOU DARE LEAVE MY MOTHER! SHE DIED AND IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT! YOU FILTHY MUGGLE! AT LEAST I KNOW HOW TO LOVE SOMEONE! UNLIKE YOU, YOU UNGRATEFUL *Naughty words* MUGGLE!" I stopped yelling for a bit, breathing heavy. I could see out of the corner of my eye that some of the Death Eaters were a tad scared about my out burst. Good! I hate them all "I wish you could have met her, father" I whispered "She was the best. I loved her. I love her still, even if it's been 50 years" I then yelled "I LOVE YOU, LUNA LOVEGOOD!" And then I disapperated...
