AN: Aren't you proud of me? I updated the next day! It's short, but don't worry, I intended it. It adds to the chapter. Anyway, here is the next installment.

Disclaimer: This is the disclaimer for the last chapter and this one as well. I wrote a letter to J.K. Rowling demanding her to sign over her rights for the Harry Potter books, but she said "We are sorry to inform you that your request has been denied. Please write back soon. The J.K. Rowling Directory." They couldn't even personalize it! Tears As you can tell my quest to own the Harry Potter Books was a failure, so alas I do not own anything except for the plot and Scott and David, my very own original characters.Thank you for reading this obnoxiously long disclaimer and on with the story.

Because Of You

Chapter Six

By: Alexandra Ward

An hour later and Harry still hadn't come back downstairs. After having a huge group discussion, we decided that I would go and see if Harry was okay.

I knocked on the door. No answer. I knocked again and gently opened the door. "Harry?"

"Hey Mione."

"Are you okay?"

"Yeah. Thanks Mione. Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would ever talk to them. I don't know how I can ever repay you."

"You already have Harry. You were my first friend ever Harry! Now, not only are you my best friend, but you now act as the older brother I never had."

"Mione." His voice sounded strangled. I was kinda concerned, but that was when I realized that he was crying. "Harry?"

"Hermione, you are the most extraordinary woman I have ever met."

"Don't let Ginny hear you say that." He just laughed and smiled.

"Okay. Well, thanks again Hermione for being the woman that you are." Harry then left the room. I stayed in there. That was probably one of the worst mistakes of my life.

"Hey Hermione." He shut the door. "What's up?" He locked the door.

"Ron? What are you doing?"

"I told the rest of them that I was going to the bathroom. I guess they took my apology seriously."

"Excuse me?" My heart started to race from fright. I willed myself to calm down and let him explain.

"You heard me. Anyway, since my master is gone-"

"Master?" I said alarmed.

"Yes Master, Voldemort. Since you and Harry killed him, I want revenge.

"What do you mean?"

"Hermione, I want a life for a life, if you know what I mean." My eyes widened in fear and shock.

"Wait Ron. Think about this. The rest of them will know it's you. You will go to Azkaban."

"My master is dead. You think I care?"

"FRED!"

"AVADA KEDAVRA!"

Everything went black.

AN: I am sorry for the cliffie, but it's fun. But just so you alldon't suffer to much, I am already in the process of writing the next chapter. I should have it up within two days. Thanks again and,as always, please review.
