I would like to dedicate this chapter to Punkin, a wonderful ff writer, for being the first person ever to dedicate a chapter to me. (MUAH). I'd also like to thank Punkin, viva, Megsmurffey, Rain Wolf, Barbara, Mia and Kyle785 for reviewing. TEN REVIEWS!! I feel loved. I am giving up sleeping time to write this, bcoz, let's face it, rowers don't get to sleep anyway so it's no different to any other day (I'm a poet and I didn't know it).

(BTW I love rowing!!!)

Chapter 2 - Prophecy.

Ginny woke up groggy and less refreshed than when she had gone to sleep.

Wandering down into the kitchen, she noticed Harry lying on the couch where she had left him last night.

"Morning, Gin."

Ginny blushed (darn blushing), "Morning Harry. Did you sleep well?"

"Too hot in Ron's room."

Ginny nodded silently.

She could see his eyes, two green lanterns glinting at her like a cat.

His eyes are as green as a fresh pickled toad.

Mentally, she hit herself, "Can I get you something to eat?"

Harry shook his head, "It's alright, I'll get myself something."

Ginny nodded and stood there awkwardly for a second before moving into the kitchen.

***

Her curls are the colour of crimson fire.

Her eyes bore into the soul.

Her mind exposes you as a liar,

And destroys all that is foul. (A/N I'm sorry. I know soul doesn't rhyme with foul.)

Hermione placed a marker in the book she was reading and climbed out of the taxi, paying the driver and walking hurriedly into the house.

"Hermione!!" cried a voice.

Hermione grinned, placing her arms around the neck of her small freckled friend.

"Ginny Weasley, I do believe you have shrunk since I last saw you."

Ginny stuck out her tongue, " Maybe you've just got giant blood and it's only just decided to show its face."

Hermione laughed, "Maybe."

Ginny also smiled, glad her friend was here.

"Sooo." Hermione looked down at her young companion, "Is Ron here?" she asked, too casually.

Ginny burst into laughter at the sudden burst of suppressed emotion she received from the older girl.

Still giggling, she replied, "Yes. He's been waiting for you to get here for hours."

Hermione blushed, "And Harry," she continued, obviously trying to change the subject.

Ginny's giggles subsided at the thought of Harry, "Yes," she paused, "Hermione. I think I need to talk to you about something. But, not now."

Hermione nodded distractedly, and Ginny had to hide another grin as she saw the object of Hermione's distraction.

"RON!!!"

"HERMIONE!!!"

Ginny watched her brother sprint across the grass and envelope Hermione in a hug.

The pair hurriedly pulled apart when they heard Harry cat calling behind them.

Ginny smiled up at Harry, shy once more as he too gave Hermione a hug.

***

Hermione settled into bed, yawning after the long day. Opening her book once more, she read:

There is only one place to hide from her,

And that lies within truth,

Her destiny is one day to win,

The method is not foolproof.

One man a lover,

One man a friend,

One man a brother,

One man, her end.

O choose wisely,

Golden fire,

Your powers are great,

But he's a liar,

So seek not solace in those you love

The price you'll pay is one too great for you to live with.

And beware of the dragon.

Ginny wandered into her room and muttered a sleepy goodnight to Hermione.

Hermione placed the marker once more in her book, "Prophecies for children of the age" and closed her eyes.

***

It was very dark, and very cold. Ginny was lying somewhere in a fitful sleep, but she knew she was dreaming. A shadow followed her, a shadow of great powers and horrible intentions. It was attracted to her power, because her power was made of the same evil as it.

Ginny screamed as it grabbed her and revealed its face.

***

Harry awoke as a scream echoed in his mind. He glanced over to Ron's bed, where Ron slept peacefully.

Harry realized he was hot once more and sighing, got out of bed and made his way down towards the living room.

He was on the landing near Ginny's bedroom when he heard a door creak open. Glancing up, he saw Ginny scamper down the stairs. Curious, he followed he silently.

In the kitchen, he found her, sitting at the table, weeping almost silently.

"Ginny?"

Ginny's head flew up and she jumped in her seat.

"Sorry. Didn't mean to scare you." Harry took the seat next to her, "Are you alright?"

Ginny hastily wiped her tears, "Sure. I'm fine."

Harry noticed her shaky voice and impulsively placed an arm around her shoulder, "No you're not. Dumb question, Harry."

Ginny laughed softly, and relaxed onto his shoulder.

"Do you want to talk about it?"

Ginny shook her head, "It was just a nightmare."

"Nightmares can be pretty scary. I have had a few in my time."

Ginny's power burst into flame. A white-hot burning sensation flooded her forehead, right where Harry's scar would be. Irrational fear and pain ran through her, making her panic.

The sensation was gone, as fast as it had begun.

Harry looked at her, suddenly concerned, "Ginny? You're shaking!"

"I'm alright. Just a bit cold."

Harry raised his eyebrows; I came down here because it's about a million degrees.

He let it go.

Ginny looked up into his worried eyes, "I think I'll go back to bed." She slid out of his embrace and walked towards the stairs.

Reaching them, she turned back, "Thanks, Harry."

"No problemo, Gin." She saw his white teeth flash at her through the dark kitchen.

She started up the staircase.

***

Outside, a dark figure watched the pair in the kitchen. The Prophecy had begun.

Kneeling on the ground, the figure bent forwards until her head touched the ground.

"Peace be to you, Golden Fire."

A/N And I'm going to have to leave it there for now. SORRY!!! Like I said, I am giving up sleep and I feel that is a perfect spot to leave this chapter. I will try to get the chapters longer at one point, but for now, the problem is time. So, for now, I'll try to get as many chapters done as possible, but it will take a while.

REVIEWS!!!! Thanks again to everyone who reviewed, but if you want more, then I'm going to have to ask for at least.. 20. Come on, ten reviews a chapter isn't that much. It takes you a second and a half, and I get sooo happy when people review.

Assuming I get the reviews, I will have chapter 3 up by. probably the tenth of March. But it may take longer than that, so I am eternally sorry if I don't make that date. I promise to try!!

REMEMBER TO REVIEW!!!

Luv Lawwwren.
