Chapter 9: More Nightmere's
They started to get out of the train and they went to find a carriage to take them to the school. When they finally found one they all got inside and sat down, Ginny sat by Harry on one side and Hermione sat by Ron on the other. The ride up to the school was silent and when they got there they all got out and went inside to the Great Hall and took a seat at the Gryfinder(sp?) table. After a couple of minutes the first years came in and started to get sorted.
When the sorting was finished Dombldore stood up to make his speech. "Welcome to Hogwarts for another year those of you who have been here before and welcome to those of you who are new. I would just like to say that the Dark Forrest is still forbidden so nobody is allowed to go in it. The Head students for this year are Hermione Granger for Head Girl and Draco Malfoy for Head boy, now the two of you will be sharing a common room this year and after the feast I will take you there. That is all, thank you. You may now enjoy!" When he finished his speech and sat down the food appeared and evryone started talking and eating.
"So Hermione, Ron how was you summer?" Dean Tomson asked as he shoved a chicken leg into his mouth. "Our summer was great, how was yours?" Ron asked also shoving a chicken leg into his mouth and Hermione looked at him disgused but nobody saw. As the conversations went on Hermione started to zone out and started to think about how cool it should be sharing a common room with the hottest boy in school, Draco Malfoy.
At the same time that Hermione was thinking of him, Draco was thinking about how much fun it'll be sharing the common room with hottest girl in school and then look over to her table to see what she was doing and saw that she was looking at him also so they locked eyes for a few seconds before she broke the contact and looked away. He then just started to eat again with one thing on his mind, Hermione Granger.
When everyone was finished eating the prefects showed the first years where the common rooms are and the rest of the students went to hang out. Hermione and Draco waited for Dombldore to finish talking with the other Professors before he could show them to their common room so they just stood there silent untill he came over to them.
"Why so silent? You two should be talking to each other and trying to get to know each other a little better, you might like it." He said and laughed a little before saying, "This way." and then started to walk away and they followed. They went up three staircases and through nine hallways before they reached a portrait of a princess and a knight. "This is the entrance to your common room, you can decide what you want your password to be. Goodnight." He then walked away and left them there.
Hermione looked at Draco and Draco looked at Hermione, "So...What do you want the password to be?" Hermione asked. "I don't really care, what do you want it to be?" He replied. She smiled and then said, "Okay then lets make it, 'Dragons'." He then looked at her shocked.
"Why dragons?" He asked with a smirk on his face.
"Oh I don't know, maybe because I'm sharing a common room with one now and they are really beautiful." She smiled then said, "Dragon" to the portrait and it swung open and she stepped into it just to stop and look around in amazment.
The couch had a green and silver cover on one arm and a gold and moron cover on the other, there where two chairs that were by the fireplace one with the Slytherin crest on it and the other with the Gryfinder crest. The walls and carpet was a mixture of green and gold which was really pretty and the celing was a beautiful marbal. She then ran to the door with the letters HG over it and went inside. There was a huge four-poster bed in which the covers where the Gryfindor colors, there was also a dest, night stand, and dressers. The curtain over the window where a darker color so as to block out any light from the sun.
After she looked at her room she walked over to where Draco was standing at his doorway and looked in to see what his room looked like. It was basically the same as hers, the only difference was that all of his things were green and silver. The curtains were like hers though, they were also a darker color to keep the sun out.
"Well this is really nice, I like the colors of everything." Hermione said and sat on his bed looking at him. Draco then walked over and sat beside her but she must have thought it was to close so she moved over some.
"Okay Hermione, I know that there's something you're not telling me, so what is it?" Draco asked not moving closer to her because he kenw why she moved away. She just looked down and didn't answer. It was quiet for a few minutes before she got up and walked out of his room and back to hers, but what he didn't see was that there were tears rolling down her cheeks.
As the night grew darker and darker Hermione was still trying to get to sleep. When she finally fell asleep it was little past midnight. She wasn't hoping for a good nights sleep because she knew she wouldn't get it. As soon as she fell asleep her nightmeres started again as the same guy from the last dream had her against a brick wall and didn't give her any chance to get away.
Dream
Hermione started to struggle to get away but he was just to strong. He smiled as he watched her try to away. He losened his grip a little and she broke free from him and started to run away looking for a way to get out and wake up but found nothing.
"You can't find what you're looking for my dear, it's not anywhere around here." He said walking after her and she just ignored him and kept running and looking. "I own this place, there is no way you are getting out this time. You are stuck here forever with me."
She then stoped and turned around to face him saying, "I will find a way out and if I don't then Draco will save me when he wakes up." He just smiled at her and replied, "This Draco person you talk of wont know that you're stuck here. When he goes to see if you're alright he'll see that you're still sleeping and wont think of waking you up, and even if he did try to wake you up, you wouldn't wake up. Like I said before this is my place, I own it." He then laughed as he grabbed her again and pulled her towards him. He then started to plant kisses up and down her neck, and she didn't try to get away this time for she knew it was no use, she just had to believe that somehow Draco would get her out of there.He then pushed her up against another wall and then started to lick and nibble up and down her neck. She still didn't try to fight or get away, she just allowed him to do whatever he wanted.
"Aww, come on dear, if you don't try to fight me then it's no fun. And I want some fun." He replied and slapped her but she still did nothing. He then threw her to the ground and she made a 'humph' noise as she hit the rocky hard ground and she could feel something wet running off her arm from the albow that she landed on and looked and saw that she was bleeding.
"If you don't start to react(sp?) to what's going on then I'll just kill you and then you'll never see you're Draco ever again." He said and then kicked her and she let out a small scream and he smiled, "That's better." He then pulled her up by her hair and slammed her against the wall again and started to move his hands under her shirt, then she starts to try and fight him off but he's to strong. He then turns her around and lifts her shirt that way he can see her bare back and takes out a knife and carves the words 'Seth's Whore' in her lower back and she screams out in pain.
"Now everyone will know that you're mine and only mine." Seth says as he turns her around again and roughly(sp?) pushes her now bleeding back into the wall as he starts to take off her pants laughing as she screams for him to stop, trying to ignore the souring(sp?) pain in her back. Just then she has the feeling of being pulled out of the dream world and back into the real world as Seth screams, "No! He's not suppossed(sp?) to be able to take you from me."
End Dream
When Hermione woke up she was still screaming but this time it was from the pain in her back and when she rolled over she heard someone gasp in shock at what they saw. She slowly looked over to see who it was and saw Draco standing there in shock.
"What happened, Hermione? Who did this to you?" He asked in concern and shock, but she couldn't find the words to tell him. She was in so much pain and so scared that the only thing she could see was a blurr of color before everything went black and she passed out.
When Hermione woke up the next morning she wasn't in her room but in the hospital wing and she could feel that her back and arm was wrapped(sp?) up and when she pulled up her shirt she saw the bandages around her. She then heard a noise coming from outside of the curtain that was around her bed and pulled her shirt back down. Just then Draco walked in and he was looking pissed but when he saw that she was awake his eyes softened(sp?) and he sat down beside her.
"Are you ok? Do you want to tell me what happened?" He asked as he took her hand hoping that it would comfort her but she just pulled her hand away and looked back down, just then things got even worse as Ron walked in and saw Draco sitting by her.
"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING HERE MALFOY? ARE YOU TRYING TO HURT HER EVEN MORE?" He yelled and went and pushed Draco off of the bed.
"I DIDN'T DO THIS TO HER AND I WOULDN'T BE SURPRISED IF IT WAS YOU SOMEHOW!" Draco yelled back while getting off of the floor and going towards Ron.
"Stop, please just stop fighting. It wasn't either of you, it was a dream." Hermione replied so softly that they almost didn't hear her, but they did and they stoped fighting.
"Hermione...I...Are..." Draco tried to say sumthing but he couldn't seem to find the words he wanted.
"Get out of here Malfoy, no one wants you here." Ron said and then he sat on the bed next to her and wrapped an arm around her. Draco then looked at her to see if she'd object with what Ron had said but she wouldn't even look at him so he turned and left the room.
Just then Madam Pomfrey walked in and said, "You can leave now." before walking back out. Ron then stood up and told Hermione to get up so they could leave and they could talk in privet, which always meant that he wanted to hurt her some more. As soon as they were in a deserted hallway he grabbed her and pushed up to the wall.
"You better tell me what the HELL is going on with you and Malfoy!" He said still holding her, he made it look like he was holding her waist like a boyfriend does just in case someone were to walk into that hallway. She tried to get away but his grip just tightened. She could feel the tears starting to come but she wouldn't let them fall. She didn't want to show him just how weak she felt at that moment but he could see that here eyes were watery(sp?) and he smiled.
"There's noth..nothing going...going on. He's just worried about me is all, it'll look like he did it if he didn't at least pretend to be worried." She answered but couldn't look him in the eyes as she did. He didn't seem to mind though because at that moment something downed(sp?) on him, 'Who is Seth?'
That seemed to be on everyone's mind for the next few weeks before everything seemed to go back to normal, or as normal as things could get. Nobody seemed too concerned about it anymore because nothing had happened in almost a month and if something didn't happen after about three weeks everyone figured that it wasn't worth concerning themseves over. And just as everything seemed to get back on track another one of her nightmeres come and she was stuck in her dream world with Seth and his evil ways again, but this time it was different. This time there was someone else in her dream.
Dream
"So I see that you've been a good girl for me and haven't slept with anyone." Seth said laughing as he followed her down the street again.
"Why can't you just leave me alone? I don't even know who you are. I haven't done anything to deserve this." Hermione shouted at him while looking for a way to get out but she knew it was useless, there was no way out.
He just laughed at her again and kept following her. She decided that it was no use to run anymore so she stoped and waited for him to get to her and when he did he looked a little disapointed(sp?). But that didn't stop him from pushing her up against another building before opening its door and pushing her inside.
"How did you get the door open?" She asked shocked.
"You have to remember, I own this place. I can do whatever I want whenever I want." He replied and pushed her into the bedroom and threw her onto the bed. When he started to climb on top of her she decided that it was time to start to try to get away.
"You can struggle all you want but you're not going to get away, I wont let you. It is time for me to get what I want. I've had to wait too long for this and now it is time take you, and when I do I will finally be free of this place and then I can have you in the real world also." He smiled at her and started to undo her shirt.
"How will you be free of this place? How will you get out?" She asked forgetting to struggle and just looked at him in shock.
"You are my way out, Hermione. There is more to you than anyone knows, have you ever met your father? Have you talked to him?" Hermione was now getting really confused, of course she's talked to her father.
"What are you talking about? I live with my father, so of course I've talked to him and met him."
"No my dear, that is not your father, at least not your real father. It was your father who put me here, of course he didn't know that I would be put in your dreams. He thought that I'd be put in someone who doesn't matter, who would die in a couple of weeks after I was put there but I was put in your head, in your dreams." By this time he had her shirt off and was starting on her pants.
"If the man that I'm living with isn't my father, then who is?"
"That my friend, you have to find out on your own."
"So you can't tell me?"
"I can." He finally got her pants off.
"Then why don't you?"
"I don't want to." He started to take off his shirt.
"Its not that you don't want to, its that you can't."
"I can, I just don't want to tell you." He started to take off his pants.
"You can't tell."
"I can and I will, lets finish what we're doing first and then I'll tell." It was then that she realized she was completly naked and he was taking off his pants. She started to struggle again but couldn't get away, he was just to strong.
Just then someone ran in and kicked him off of her and threw a blanket over her to cover her up and then went over to Seth. When the person got over to him he looked up and smiled at him.
"I was wondering how long it would take before you came to try and rescue her. She's not worth it you know. She's always so scared and weak, it's fun to play with her. It's a shame that you're her father or I would tell you to have a go with her, after me of course." Seth replied and received a kick in the face. Hermione got up and put her clothes back on, this man is her father. 'Who is it though?' She thought to herself before starting to go over to where they were.
"Don't come over here, it's not safe." The man said and she stoped. Just then Seth wasn't on the floor anymore but was standing behind her and grabbed her around the waist and held a knife to her throat.
"If you move I'll kill her, I swear I will." Seth said and she could tell that he was scared of this man.
"If you kill her then you wont have anyway to get out of here. I wondered how long you would wait before you came back to her. You have everyone else thinking that it was just a normal nightmere, but I knew that it wasn't. I knew it was you."
"I would rather see you in pain of her death than get out of here, and I'm surprised that you didn't think about trying to save her before now. You are one horrible father." When he said that the other man went to move but stoped when he saw that Seth was pushing harder on the knife and a little bit of blood ran down her neck, which Seth licked up and she shivered.
"Leave her alone, this fight is between us, she's not in it."
"She is now. Why haven't you told her about you? She didn't even know she was adopted. I would have told her sooner if she were my daughter so that she would be prepared for this battle."
"I would have loved to have told her before but I couldn't, she wasn't ready." Hermione started to get mad that they were talking about her as if she wasn't even there.
"You have the chance to tell her who you are now, before I kill you and then use her to get out of here. Although I will miss being able to know her thoughts of a certain someone and what she wants and doesn't want."
"Just let her go while we fight so that she doesn't get hurt and..."
"Will you both please stop talking about me as if I'm not here. I am here and I can hear everything you are saying." She shouted which shocked both of the men.
"Wouldn't you like to know who your real father is before he dies?" Seth asked and kissed the top of her head smiling knowing that she would like to know who he is which would only lead to more problems. She looked at the other man, at her father, and noded her head yes.
"You see, your kid wants to know who you are, so pull down your hood and show her." Seth laughed and the man pulled down his hood and Hermione let out a gasp.
Thats all for now. I hope you liked it, and I'm sorry that it took so long for me to post it but my computer is stupid and wont stop messing up. I'll try to hurry and write the next chapter and post it so you can find out who her father really is, and what the side effects of Pany's spell is and if Seth gets out or not. You will also find out whats up with Seth and Hermione's father, why Seth was put in the dream world. Well thats all for right now, please review and tell me how it is, thanks.
