~*Beginning of Hermione's Nightmare

The beautiful girl with the long curly brown hair was lying in a flower field outside of a huge castle, which looked oddly familiar. She was wearing a long ruby dress, laced with gold.

She smiled happily. She was in love and that's all that mattered to her. Love. It was a most wonderful feeling, even though it was very difficult to handle at some points.

The girl looked up and saw him, with his blond hair and lovely gray eyes, walking toward her. He was wearing his green and silver attire, which were pretty much the only colors he ever wore.

Her handsome lover was walking toward her with his arms outstretched for her. The girl jumped up and ran toward him. She jumped into his arms blissfully, "Oh! My love! I have been searching for you!"

He grinned at her and kissed her softly on the forehead, "Yes. I know, but you must hurry. My father is on to us."

The girl shook her head, "You don't mean it! I thought you said that we would be safe and happy forever! You promised, Daemon!"

The Daemon's gray eyes were filled with tears. The girl gasped. She had never seen him cry once, "Oh! What distresses you so? Tell me!"

The boy sighed deeply, "Well, my evil father. I think he knows about us. My sister is going to meet him and try to make him forget seeing us, but I am very worried for her safety. Helen, I am scared. I know it may sound foolish, being afraid of your own father, but he is just so evil"

Helen held on to Daemon closely, feeling his heart pounding, "Oh.why can't things just be simple again."

"I hear you there, my dear. But unfortunately.things aren't so simple."

Suddenly an ear-piercing scream cut across the sky. The beautiful young girl, Helen and the handsome blond boy, Daemon backed away from each other and stared across the horizon. The Helen began to tremble, "Oh God.what was that?"

"I-I don't know," Daemon replied, his eyes full of anxiety and worry.

Then a figure appeared. It was a young red headed girl. She was racing toward the couple. She appeared frightened. No, she was extremely terrified!

The Helen trembled even more and her huge chestnut eyes filled with tears, "Oh no! What has happened, Gina!"

Gina was shaking violently, and when she reached the two lovers she fell to the ground weeping and gasping for breath. Helen bent over her, "Gina? Please speak!"

Gina stared at the two with tear-streaked eyes, "Oh! Helen! Daemon! It-it's too late to save her. Jewelia, she went to meet your father, Luico earlier then planned, and well he-he-"

Gina broke down into a fit of sobs. Helen took Gina's hand and squeezed it tightly, and Daemon gasped with horror, "Not my sister, Jewelia! What happened!"

Gina looked away from Daemon's gray eyes and shrieked loudly, "He KILLED her! Oh.she's dead!"

Helen felt her heart stop. Jewelia, Daemon's sweet little sister murdered? NO! It wasn't possible! Jewelia was so adorable and fun to be around. There was no way in hell she could be dead. Helen glanced at her lover, Daemon.

His facial expression was so distraught and upset, it looked almost inhuman. Helen reached for Daemon, but he pushed her away. Instead Daemon turned to Gina, "Go! Take Helen to a safe place! I'll make that-that man wish he were never EVER born! I will send him to the flames of hell!"

Helen reached for Daemon, "NO! I will go with you!"

"It's too dangerous, Helen! Stay here with Gina! Promise me!"

"But-"

"Promise ME!"

Helen avoided Daemon's gaze, "Yes. I-I promise."

Daemon cupped Helen's check in his hand, "I couldn't bear living without you. It is vital to me that you remain safe."

Daemon leaned forward and kissed Helen deeply. She kissed him back, with tears pouring down her face. When Daemon pulling away he whispered softly into Helen's ear, "I promise I will return."

With that said Daemon stood up and ran out of sight, leaving Helen weeping behind him. Gina knelt by Helen's side, "I'm sorry. I can't tell you how heartbroken I feel right now. Jewelia was important to me too."

Helen embraced her friend, and whispered, "I know. I know."

Then the sky turned a dark forbidden gray, and everything became hazy. Gina gasped with fear and pointed toward the sky. Helen looked up, not daring to believe what she saw.

In the sky was his face. The hateful face of Jewelia and Daemon's father, was leering down at Helen and Gina. Gina's eyes went wide with fear and Helen could feel the man's hateful presence pour into her very soul.

The evil father, Luico, glared down at both Helen and Gina, "Well, well. Daemon will be a difficult one, won't he? He will be much harder then his sister. He is certainly stronger. Well, I suppose there is only one thing to do to him then, eh mudblood!"

Helen stood up ready to face Luico, only to find that he vanished completely. Everything had gone as quickly as it appeared.

Gina touched Helen's shoulder, "I'll hurry and get help."

Gina immediately bolted toward the direction of the castle, but Helen went toward the direction of the dungeons. Where she knew HE would be waiting for her.

She too the dark dungeon only to find Daemon murdered as well, with a horrible mocking Luico over him. Helen ran for it, but she seemed to give up hope completely. Then the green light came and pain and death was everywhere.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Hermione woke up with a jolt, shaking with fear. She shook her head several times. That nightmare? It seemed so familiar to her, and it was just so frightening.

Hermione glanced over, and to her relief her roommates, Lavender and Parvati, were still asleep. What would they think if the school genius was woken up by a stupid nightmare?

Hermione groaned angrily. Perfect. Another night with lack of sleep. Classes would be starting tomorrow, and her worst class Potions, with the dreadful Snape, was first on the agenda. Wonderful.

An hour had passed, and Hermione was STILL tossing and turning. It was very late, well after midnight. Hermione sat up cursing, and got out of bed. Maybe a midnight walk would be exactly what she needed.

Leaving the common room after hours was against the rules, and Hermione knew this, but she didn't know what else to do. She didn't feel like just lying in her four-poster bed waiting for morning.

Hermione slowly left the common room, praying that she wouldn't run into any of the professors, or worse Flinch and Mrs. Norris! Hermione though wasn't worried. She was good at making up lies in times of trouble.

However, Hermione didn't know that she wasn't the only one awoken by a nightmare. Her so called rival, Draco Malfoy had the same exact nightmare as she did that night.

Did I get you all thinking? I hope so! I will update soon! R/R Please!!!
