Part II: Haunted (by Evanescence)

    For the past couple of months, Ginny continued writing to Tom. They had many wonderful conversations together. Sometimes, Ginny would stay up until late at night writing to him. She found solace in his company and felt that as long as she had him and the diary, she would never be alone.

    But, lately, Ginny had been having strange dreams. She didn't know why or what their meaning was, but for some reason…they frightened her. She had wanted to write her mom and tell her, but something inside held her back. So, she confided in the one person she new she could trust.

*No lost words, whisper slowly, to me.

Still can't find what keeps me here.

And all this time I've been so hollow, inside

         (I know you're still there.)*

~Oh, Tom! I've been having these weird dreams.

~Really? About what, Ginny?

~I dream I'm in this dark place. It's so scary, Tom. Whenever I'm there, in the dream, all I feel is hate and death.

*Watching me,

Wanting me,

I can feel you pull me down.*

I try to call for help, but all I hear is the voice of a monster!

*Fearing you,

Loving you,

I wont let you pull me down.*

~Calm down Ginny. They're just nightmares. You'll be ok.

~But, Tom, they feel so real.

~All dreams feel real until you wake up, Ginny.

~I guess you're right. I'll try not to worry so much.

~Good girl, Ginny. Now, have you had any more dreams like that?

*Hunting you, I can smell you---

                   Alive.*

~Yes, but I don't know if I want to talk about them. They're worse than the other one.

~You can tell me, Ginny. It's better to talk about things, you know.

*Your heart pounding

In my head*

~I don't know…

~Come on, Ginny…You can trust me.

*Watching me,

Wanting me,

I can feel you pull me down.*

~Well, sometimes, in my dreams, I hear loud hissing sounds all around me. It's some kind of monster…and it keeps asking me what it should do…It keeps calling me 'Master.' Sometimes, I think I even tell it to hurt people!

~Oh, that sounds dreadful! How often have you been having these dreams, Ginny?

~Late at night. Mostly, after I'm done writing in the diary.

~Hmm…how peculiar.

*Saving me,

Raping me,*

~Once I woke up with feathers clinging to my robes, and that same day Hagrid said something had killing his chickens! And whenever someone gets hurt, something deep inside me says it's my fault!

~Oh, Ginny…I'm sorry.

*Watching me…*

~I'm so frightened, Tom. Tom…what if I'm the one causing the attacks!
