Once again, thank you to my reviewers! I am loving all the support. ^_^ Here's Chapter 5... Hope you like it!
.::Chapter 5::.
The party had ended after they had left, the others deciding to talk about where they had run off to instead of dancing. All conversation stopped however when they stepped in.
Trinity's powers were on overload from trying to take in as much of Harry's essence as possible and her head was suddenly filled with toom any conflicting thoughts. She tried to block them out but found that she couldn't. She looked from person to person, getting different messages form all of them. Some thought she and Harry were cute together, one girl in the corner was sending out perticualrly murderous feelings.
Trinity jumped; she could hear their thoughts not just feel them. She put her hands to the sides of her head and shut her eyes tightly, trying to ease the pain and confusion to no avail.
She turned her eyes to the portait and it flew open. She shot out the door and began running full speed toward the Headmasters office. Her powers were growing and strengthening and she couldn't control them. Through her confusion, she vaguely registered someone callign her name and the sound of heavy footfalls following her own.
She stopped infront of the Gargoyle, panting heavily. SHe tried with all her might to will it to open, she didn't know the password. She called out with her mind, using her new power to hail the Headmaster.
'Professor! Let me up! Help! PROFESSOR!'
The Gargoyle sprung aside and she ran up the stairs and burst through the door where she fell to her knees, clutching her head, the whole school was still awake and the thoughts were too much. She couldn't take much more.
Dumbledoor rushed in, helped her to a chair and handed her a goblet full of green, cinnimon scented liquid.
"It will rebuild your mental walls." He said.
She drank it immediately and sighed as the voices in her head quieted down. She relaxed, glad to be free of the pain.
"Thank you professor but, how did you know what was wrong?" Trinity asked quietly.
"I heard you calling to me with your mind and knew your powers had awoken and were overwhelming you. But before we say anythign else, there is a young man yelling at my gargoyle. He seems rather worried." Dumbledoor said, the farmiliar twinkle in his eye intensifying.
"Harry." She said with a smile. "I thought someone was following me."
"Should I let him in?"
"Yes, please."
Harry came bursting in a few seconds later and after saying a very short 'hi professor.' He ran to Trinity's side.
"What happened? Why' you run off? Are you alright?"
She put her hand over his mouth before he could say anything more.
"My hidden or sleeping powers awoke and it overwhelmed me, I ran here and the Headmaster gave me a potion to rebuild my mental walls and block out the thoughts I was getting from the entire school. You followed me and here we are. I'm fine now, thanks to preofessor Dumbledoor."
Harry calmed a bit and Trinity decided it was safe to remove her hand.
She turned to Dumbledoor.
"When I came, you already had the potion prepared. Did you know this would happen?" She asked.
He smiled that knowing smile of his.
"Nothing gets by you Ms. hawkins. I was worried that sudden exposure to so many people after being closed off for so long, might overload your sense and awaken others as well. I was just prepared for the worst. We know you now have telepathy, but I'm guessing there is somethign else?"
Trinity nodded. "I think I'm a Telekenetic." She said. "The telepathy I already had figured out. Instead of feeling peoples thoughts, I can hear them. My feeling sense dissapeared."
"I don't believe your other sense went away, Ms. hawkins. Rather it has meen constantly smothered and repressed. I think that you being able to feel other peoples emotions was only the tip of the iceberg, just skimming the surface of your newly opening well of power." Dumbledoor said.
Trinity nodded, staring off while trying to absorb all this information.
Harry took the seat by Trinity and posed a question that had been nothering him since Dumbledoor had mentioned it. "What do you mean 'closed off for so long'?"
Trinity stiffened and glanced at Harry then at Dunbledoor and back at Harry before standing up.
"I'm guessing it's a touchy subject that I'm not supposed to bring up, nor should I have heard about it." Harry said.
Trinity turned around. "No! I- I want you to know. It's important and, yes, 'touchy'." She said while wringing her hands nervously.
"How about a more private area?" DUmbledoor asked.
They nodded and Dumbledoor waved his wand at a wall, which opened to show a passageway.
"It leads to Harry's secret room..." Before they could ask, he was gone.
They went down the passageway. They had to bend slightly to be able to walk and after a moment, they reached a small door. Harry pushed it open and they headed for the couch. harry sat down heavily and waited for Trinity to begin.
She took a deep breath before she began.
"Despite how happy and carefree I seem, I haven't had it very easy." She paused for a moment.
"My Mother and Father were murdered by a group of Death Eaters after Vodemort was 'gone' the first time because they had been agents for the Order of the Pheonix. My parents were supposedly in possesion of the names of hundreds of Death Eaters. Of course the Death Eaters didn't want that information to make it to the Ministry so they decided to destroy the evidence. They attacked during the day, very uncharacteristic of them, while I was at pre-school. They had no idea that I even existed. They dragged my parents outside, destroyed everything in the hosue they could before plundering it for valuables. Then they moved on to my parents. They went for my father first, performing Cruciatus on him continuously until he passed out from the pain. Then moved onto my Mum. She was raped before they tied her up and set her on fire. My dad woke up to hear her screaming and when he tried to help her, he was hit with Cruciatus again. He went insane. My mum was nothing but cinders and ash when the Aurors finally put out the fire. The Death Eaters had used a special charm or something. The Death Eaters had fled when the first Ministry official had shown up. They didn't get the chance to finish my dad but he's not right anymore... Like he got the Dementors Kiss or something, just an empty shell so he's worse than dead. I came home with a friend, they dropped me off at the end of the street and I ran home, eager to show my mom and dad something I had made in school. I got to my driveway and stopped, staring at the horror and chaos that had taken place. I burst into tears when I saw my dog, Lila, dead, also burned alive. They had set her tail on fire for fun and it spread. I ran to my dad and lept into his arms, balling my eyes out. That was the first time my powers manefested. my hand touched the back of his neck and I saw what had happened. I tore away from him. They carted him away to St. Mungo's and one of the female officials tried to comfort me, but couldn't. I would scream and pull away from everyone. By the time they realized what I was, I had passed out. I was 4 when this all happened... I understand if you're freaked out and want to keep your distance but, that's my story."
Trinity finished, collapsing in a chair and closing her eyes while massaging her temples. She had been pacing through out her story and the memory was giving her a headache.
Harry was at a loss for words so he did the only thing he could; he walked over to her and wrapped her in his arms. Her eyes shot open and she stiffened for a moment.
"I don't care about your past. I've lived a less than perfect life myself. I'm surprised that you turned out so kind and happy and giving; but I'm happy that you turned out the way you did." He said, not sure if it was the right thing to say or not.
She smiled and buried her face in his shoulder and wrapping her arms around him; and she began to cry for the first time in 11 years.
Well? What do you think? I spent probably... 3 hours on this one...It's kinda short but a lot of thought went into this! Please review! Thankies!
