Chapter 5 " Just a silly nightmare"
As darkness intended to slip into the small cave, a slender shadow crept into a small ball, as red light started to radiate from the body. With a shriek a ten feet long snake appeared, raising high as if welcoming the night. The man was gone.
The cave began to tremble, but the snake didn't crawl away, instead it began to float up in the air, as its crimson blood began to shine through its hard skin, in circles the snake went, until it stopped. Grey clouds suddenly dispersed and the silvery moon appeared in the dark sky.
A voice whispered silently in the cave, though it was one voice it sounded like a thousand persons talking at the same time. Coldness crept into the cave as the moon's silvery light shone into the cave.
" Salavary Salazar Sontrola". The snake began to tremble, but it held its position, straight and firm." Zandaslaria Nagani Sanderame… Voldarmx, Zarmaleno Dami". Blood began to pore out from the thin tong." Torne Nozze doleani Zandfai," The snake began to change into a strange form, and it began from its tail. The plat head began to split in two as the parts began to grow and then melt together. The tail began to swell and split. A crack was heard as something from the upper body began to grow.
"IMPERIOMA NADSAIYM ZALOUR, SALAVARY SALAZAR SONTROLA", the voice became louder and louder as a rotten smell slowly came from the snake's limply body . A loud shriek was heard once again, as a thick red fog began to grow from the reptile's body. Slowly the redness turned into dark green.
" ZANDASLARIA NAGANI SANDERAME… VOLDARMX, ZARMALENO DAMI" Crimson red blood began to developed the silvery moon, the night became darker, stars disappeared" NOZZE DOLEANI ZANDFAI"
"IMPERIOMA NADSAIYM ZALOUR…SALAVARY SALAZAR, SALAVARY SALAZAR, SALAVARY SALAZAR!!"
The sky's grey clouds began to move quickly in circles, preparing for a storm. A sharp thunder came from the violent darkness and struck the cave. Electricity developed the cave, in a deep red blood colour.
1 The fog began to fade away and began to grow outside the cave, and went up into
into the night sky and formed a grandiose sign with the form of a green snake.
The voice faded away silently and was replaced by a whispering hiss, as small as it was it bounced back and forward between the walls.
"Ego Sum…Ego sum…Ego sum Lord….Ego sum….Lord… Ego sum…Voldermort."
2 A man, with a long black coat and raven back hair, stood there instead of the snake at the entrance of the cave, the electricity not doing
him any harm. He raised his hands and the electricity began to flow through his fingers, and disappeared into his body.
"Master", the man said, raising his head from the ground " Make me stronger, make me as powerful as you are. I'm your son and you are now my father" finally he said " Live in me", as he said this he opened his eyes and two sharp red eyes were revealed.
From a long distance, far away from there, a baby was born his scream was heard, warming hearts of gentle people who have lost hope, as a comfort this little human gently stroke their hearts without them even knowing this small person. His mother brought him closer to her, giving him a kiss on his forehead as she sang a sweet lullaby. But the baby kept screaming..
He cried with strength though his destiny already had been set for him, and screamed, screamed, screamed, screamed, screamed…
* * *
"Lily, Lily, Lily!! Wake up Lily!"
With a jump, Lily woke up with tears running along her cheeks.
"You were having a nightmare. Are you ok?", asked Maya Devi as she gently stroke away a strand of red hair from Lily's eyes.
All girls surrounded Lily's bed, some with worried looks and other with frightened expressions. First year girls, second year girls, almost every girl who were a Gryffendor were inside the small dormitory with only four beds.
"What's happening, who was screaming..?", and many other questions was heard.
"I'm ok, can you please go out, everyone…. No, no one was killing me…It was just a nightmare…just a nightmare…no-", but she couldn't talk, though everyone were talking and asking at the same time.
She leaned towards Penny with an embarrassed face: "Was it so bad?"
Penny looked at her, as she clapped her head. " Only so load that you could consider me as deaf for a couple of days", she said with a faint smile trying to cheer Lily up.
Maya Devi turned to all girls, standing on Lily's bed so that they would see and hear her.
"Can you all plea-", but she fell deadly quiet as the rest of the girls when they saw Professor McGonagall enter the narrowed room with Dominicilia on her tail.
"Out Girls! Out!", she demanded, not shouting nor talking normal. "You too Ms. Devi, Ms. Flopheart and Ms. Hoppletant", who they all looked at the other girls with expressions of important ness. The girls left the dormitory , sighing." And you too Ms. Hadriana."
"But Professor, with all do respect I'm-"
"Not now, I want to talk to Ms. Evans in private"
Dominicilia walked out in silence, but before she closed the door, she turned to Lily, who still laid still on her bed; "Hope you're ok Lily"
Lily sighed, looking up at Professor McGonagall, who now looked a lot gentler at Lily, and sat on her bed.
"It was really nothing, it was just a silly dream. A nightmare."
"I understand, but you really scared us…Lily. Even I heard you."
"Was I screaming that loud?", Lily asked nostalgic, feeling a big knot at the bottom of her stomach. She now dreaded going down to the common room, she could imagine everyone whisper and talking about how silly she had been…specially James.
"But its nothing Lily, everyone has nightmares", said Professor McGonagall, patting Lily's bed awkwardly. Lily just looked at her astonished, Professor McGonagall never acted like that around a student" If you want…you can talk about it"
"I rather not Professor", Lily replied quickly." It was just a silly nightmare…I…I…don't remember much of it anyway."
"It's alright dear", Professor McGonagall stood up, looking herself around" Now, I think that the other girls want to come in and know what we talked about", she said in a lighter mood.
"Professor, one question only", Lily asked nervously, not sure if she had enough courage to ask this to her, as she looked up at the Professor with doubtful eyes" I don't want to sound rude…but…why are you beeing so…well…kind?"
At first Professor McGonagall looked as if she would give Lily detention or at least scowl her, but instead her face cracked up into a smile.
"I'm sure that I'm always nice Ms. Evans, though I sometimes hide it very well."
And with that Professor McGonagall opened the door, and in fell Maya, Penny and Lindsay who had been trying to overhear the conversation.
"Yes girls", Professor said with a strict voice, looking at each one of them.
"Err…we were just…err…picking up…err…my earring…", Maya Devi said with a lame excuse as she looked awkwardly at Professor McGonagall.
"Sure the Professor don't think that we were trying to hear the Professor's conversation with Lily, would she?", Lindsay asked nervously, trying to sound innocent, which failed.
Lily tried to suppress a smile as the three girls stood there with horrifying features.
Dominicila walked towards the Professor as she with a small voice said that she would handle the situation. She still felt offended for what the Professor had said before, almost applying that she was a simple seventh year girl and not Hogwarts' Head Girl.
"I'm sure that you can do it Ms. Hadriana. See you at breakfast"
Professor McGonagall walked away, her authority following her as the girls relaxed and rushed to Lily.
"So…Lily what were you actually dreaming about and what DID Professor McGonagall say?" They asked at the same time, taking no notice of Dominicilia.
"Now, now you heard the Professor, I'm in charge here right now. AND- I don't want to hear any lame excuse of your sneak peeking.", she stepped into the room." Lying to the Professor really hurt my feelings, she is such a good teacher and really ta-"
"Oh please Dominicila, just because you love her doesn't mean that we have to do it", snorted Penny as she approached her with arms on her hips.
"Watch your mouth young lady, don't make me take away points"
Penny turned around, not saying any more, biting her lower lip, but not of regret.
"Now, hurry up and get dressed, it's time for breakfast…Oh- and Lily are you sure that you are alright?", she asked and was actually concerned.
"I'm sure that I'm alright. Thank you Dominicilia"
Dominicilia Hadriana smiled and was about to turn around when Penny couldn't hold it any more.
"We can dress up as long as we want and eat whenever we want, or maybe we don't want to eat!"
Dominicilia shrugged saying; "Do what ever you want, but it's not my fault if you miss the assembly before breakfast."
"What assembly before breakfast?" Lily responded instead of Penny, who yet again turned away, jumping up with furrowed eyebrows.
"I really don't have any more information about it, but apparently of what Professor McGonagall said, Professor Dumbledore was suppose to inform us something very important."
Lily leaned back against her bed, her mind wandering back and forward.
"It's alright, we'll be right there", she said, swallowing hard, though she knew what Professor Dumbledore was going to say. Or at least she knew how effected they were going to be.
* * *
Entering the Great Hall, Lily saw a lot of curious faces looking at her and then turning to the person, that probably had done the same thing, next to them, whispering and giggling. Obviously the school now knew what had happened.
" Lily, what did Potter do to you?! I'm sure that he has something to do with your
* screaming* !", Serverus Snape bellowed over the rest of the voices. Strangely enough James didn't respond, he just looked down at the table.
"Shut up Snape and spare your insignificant speech on your friends-oops forgot that you don't have any!"
What Snape muttered, Lily didn't hear and certainly didn't care.
Lily sighed and lumped on a chair on the Gryffendor table as far from anyone as possible, not wanting to attract more than those faces that already were glued on her. The hall was in excitement, everyone from the fourth years and up thought that Professor Dumbledore was going to inform them more about the Yule Ball that was going to take place in a couple of months, but Lily knew better.
She didn't know what she exactly felt. Part of her wanted to know what Professor Dumbledore was going to say, but the other part begged her to just run away as soon as the headmaster opened his mouth. It didn't feel right, well everything hadn't felt right this term. Somehow she felt that during this term everything had "changed". Why?, she didn't know.
Lily glanced up from fingering the silvery necklace around her neck, which her grandmother had given her before she had died, and turned her head so much that she could see that James was staring at her. She jumped back a bit of surprise, but recovered soon and threw him a fiercely glare, which he oddly enough didn't respond. Instead he looked away, as if he had been caught of doing something improper.
As soon as Professor Dumbledore entered the room, with all the other Professors behind , all students fell very quiet. In normal circumstances the headmaster would have said a joke or something to make the students laugh instead of beeing so quiet, but he himself this time wore a mask and gone were the childish blink in his baby blue eyes.
"My beloved students, witches and wizards" he began"….I remember when I started in this school, my hole world was Hogwarts, my eyes only went as far as to Hogwarts. I though that the world's completely happiness was in this castle. ( Lucius Malfoy coughed at same time as he said" What a yurk", but if Dumbledore hadn't heard him or just chose to ignore him was hard to know, though the headmaster just continued) When I began in this school I felt so safe, nothing could harm me, never. Fear and uncertainty didn't exist here. At that time I only was a little boy and everything was so easy. I didn't understand evil, the contrast between good and evil. How could I?" He paused, looking at all kind of different faces" But now that I am older I understand and I feel sorry for not understanding earlier, I feel sorry for those who didn't learn me what reality is, though it doesn't always contain happiness and harmony, though also sorrow and regrets, also goodness and evilness. I was lucky for not beeing deceived for my naive ness, I was lucky for having the right persons in my surround. I was lucky. But not everybody is lucky. That is why I want you to know in which kind of reality we live in and what surrounds us, what we can expect from now on, who we can trust and who we can't..."
A long silent, not even a needle was heard. Everyone, expecting for his next words. Suddenly the huge doors to the Great Hall fell open, making everyone gasp in surprise, and in stormed Hagrid.
"They are here"
