Elliot pov.
We stood outside the office, the tension was so strong you could hear the heartbeats of the people around you, I don't know whats going to happen, Ginny used so much power in her curse, it might damage her permanently, she'll never be same, she might not even remember what happened, but, is that a good thing or not?
End of Elliot's pov.
No one spoke, they were too stunned, Ginny was mentally damaged, no one knew the severity and they had just screamed at her a few moments ago, they felt so bad with themselves, Hermione stood there, she looked sick, George looked sideways at her, Hermione vomited and George caught her before she fell to the floor, everyone was gone, it was only George, Hermione, Elliot and Ginny left, everyone was gone.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Ginny woke up for a start, she was sweating uncontrollably, she just had the same dream, she was in a field, suddenly, thousands of hooded figures came and started attacking them, she fought with them, next thing she knew, she was in a castle, and there was someone there, she didn't know who though, at first she thought it was Lord Voldemort but then he spoke, it wasn't in a hissing voice, she screamed and hit him with a red curse, then with a green, and she woke up.
Ginny shook her head, she had to get rid of those thoughts, it was just like on the holidays, but Ron had been there for her, now she was alone for some reason, 'Where IS Ron.' She thought angrily to herself, she threw back the covers and got up from the hospital's bed, she suddenly became aware of a little dog sitting on her bed.
"Oh, hi there." She said, scratching its ear. The dog barked and jumped onto her, it seemed familiar somehow.
They stayed there for a while, the dog licked her cheek, automatically she kissed his head, the dog barked and jumped out of Ginny's arms and started to play with Ginny's hand, well, that's what Ginny thought, what it was REALLY trying to do is get Ginny to know that it was Elliot by trying to hold her hand, after a couple of complete failures, he shrugged in a dog like way and bounded out of the room, Ginny sighed and went to get some water.
"Ginny?" Ginny spun around and immediately dropped the glass of water she was given by the elves in the kitchens, the elves squealed and went to get her a new one, she came face-to-face with George.
"Hi George." She stated happily, he hugged her so she wouldn't see the tears welling up in his eyes; he got rid of them and broke the embrace.
"Just came to see how you were."
"Oh, well, it's12am, you need to rest, in fact, I do to, there are classes tomorrow, George, how come I'm in the hospital wing?"
At this George couldn't contain himself, he started to bawl, Ginny screamed at the sudden reaction but went to the aid, she wrapped George in her arms and they went out of the kitchens back to the wing, the water lay forgotten on the table next to her, they sat n her bed for a while, they spoke about things, nothing in particular, just said things at random, Ginny felt happy, George was the only brother who had come to see her so far, she'll kill Ron and Fred when they finally see her.
"So, do want me stay, or do you want to sleep?"
"You better go, you have classes tomorrow, I don't think I'll be leaving for a while. hey, I had this really strange dream last night, can't you help me figure out what it is, it seemed so real." and she repeated everything to George who sat in silence the whole way through, when Ginny finished, George spoke.
"Ok, now, I want you to listen to me VERY hard. (Ginny nodded.) Now, these dreams, they are not dreams. (Ginny looked at him in a weird fashion.) This actually happened, now, what happened in your dream actually happened in real life, there WAS a war; there WAS death, and most importantly, (Tears welled up in his eyes.) most of our family, Harry and Draco died." Ginny looked stunned for a few moments, and then broke into a smile, George felt like smashing her head in.
"Right, and lemme guess, there was a leader and I killed him?" George nodded, anger pumped through his veins, 'Why was she being such a bitch?'
"Look, Ginny, (He gritted his teeth, his face a red, purple colour from the anger.) If you want to be a bitch about this, then I'm wasting my time!"
Ginny watched in shock as her brother got up and left heatedly. 'What's up his bum?' she thought, 'The war, Ron, dead, Draco, dead, mum, dead, Fred, dead, Charlie, dead, Bill, dead, they all tried to protect me, now only dad, Percy, George, Hermione and Elliot are left, I'm not sick, I'm just imagining this all happened, right?' She cried silently to herself and went to sleep, 'Why must I have to be a re-incarnation of Elliot's father?'
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Ginny woke up, again, to find that Hermione was at her bed edge, sitting looking at nothing in particular.
"Hermione?"
"You're awake, good." Hermione seemed a bit more nervous then usual, Ginny was about to ask when Hermione answered the un-asked question.
"Umm, your brothers really upset, I mean, I know you're not to blame, ('Yes you are, you selfish bitch! How dare you pretend nothing happened.') But you should of listened, this isn't going to go away, you have to face reality sooner or later, I know for a fact there's no mental damage done to you, I know you, you remember everything, it's time to get out of denial and back into the real world, where you face real problems, there is a war still going on Ginny, your war." Hermione got up and left, her eyes welled up, Ginny was silently crying. 'They're all gone....'
Ginny didn't talk for a couple of days, she was still in shock, she knew everything that Hermione said was true, there was a war, people did die, even students from Hogwarts, even her own family lost people.. She shook her head, 'NO, THERE WAS NO WAR, I AM JUST BEING DUMB, THERE WAS NEVER A WAR, THERE COULD NEVER OF BEEN!' denial was winning, she was beginning to lose her sanity, she become tired, a weak voice tried to protest that there was a war, but, denial got the better for her, she smiled and went to sleep, truth's last, feeble attempt to make herself believe a war did happen was, 'There is still a war going on, your war.'
Ginny woke up, she felt different, she realised at once that she wasn't in the hospital wing, 'Not again, I must of slept walked.' She groaned as she got up from the floor, suddenly she gasped; she was at Hogsmade?
It was still dark, people were still asleep, Ginny waked around, things looked a lot different then they did at night, she walked around, the chilly wind whipping around her and her flimsy pyjamas, she knew she was in Hogsmade, but, where in Hogsmade? She keep on walking till she entered a field, the ground looked weak, she could see red in some places, she wandered around, thinking why the place looked so familiar, she was walking around, not doing much, when she heard a voice. "What are you doing here?"
"Me?" She said looking up, there was a hooded figure on a hill, he looked familiar, even in the hood, she felt like she met him before, 'Who is he?'
"Well Ginny, I guess you're here to make me feel even worse to ever of entrusted you with this burden." He pulled off his hood, he was a young man in his early 30's; he had many scars and a patch over one eye, the other eye looked lifeless.
"Excuse me but, who are you?"
"Ha, you don't even recognise me, I thought you wouldn't of, seeing as you can't even deal with reality, why would you deal with the supernatural." Suddenly, as if forced into her brains, images of photos passed her mind.
"You're me!!!"
"In a way, yes, but, you're me, I am not you, you a re a re-incarnation of me, I am strong, I am real, in a sense of words, I am not afraid, you, on the other hand, are weak, tormented by death, a girl, little, fragile, you are no longer Ginny, you are no longer human, you are in denial." Ginny froze at these words; she is going crazy; a guy that died 2000 years ago is here, in front of her?
"How are you-?"
"Do not ask; you are so blinded by denial that the mere energy it takes to try to explain would just be wasted."
"But, I- what has this got to do- how do you know- what is going on?" She asked frantically, he grinned broadly.
"You are in denial, you resist the truth and resort to punishing your mind, trying to block out the real, and creating what you think should happen." He answered simply. Ginny looked puzzled, he sighed. "Think of it as taking a drug, it takes you away from the pain, it makes you feel better, that is what you are doing to yourself." Ginny froze, 'A drug? Me? No way, I would never take drugs, 'but, he wasn't saying you did'' a small vice popped into her head, 'That's right Ginny, he just said you were blocking reality, and that it is like taking drugs, don't get confused Ginny, you are in denial.' She screamed out "NO." she fell to the floor, her ears ringing with voices, she covered her ears, the whispers got louder, they got so loud she screamed again, a blood-chilling scream, she was being shaken awake, she heard voices that weren't coming from her head, she open her eyes.
"Ginny? Are you alright?" Ginny looked at Elliot, his eyes full of concern, his dark red eyes scanned her eyes, as if trying to see what's wrong, she got up from the floor and went back into her bed, 'It was dream' 'yes, and now you know the truth, don't get lost again Ginny, stay with me.' Truth was winning, she saw images of people dying, she saw images of her, torturing a man, she gasped and grabbed Elliot, she cried. Elliot knew she had broken through, he sniffed and hugged Ginny, he looked into her eyes, she was back!
"I-I am so sorry." Ginny said between sobs after a couple of minutes, Elliot rubbed her arm, he was too overjoyed to have her back, he was so happy, it was Ginny, she was back, she will never leave again.
"Don't worry, you were brave Ginny, I would of died if I were you, knowing al that happened, the army toughens you up, you weren't tough, and you managed, I am so happy they never did that to you." He said, Ginny nodded, he didn't mean she was weak; it just meant she still had emotions, but, Elliot did too, didn't he?
"But, you're still great, you're not tough, you are still so sweet, you help me all the time, you're not hard, you're still so nice." Eliot nodded; he felt tears welling up in his eyes, he knew she was right, they stayed embraced, Ginny's head, slowly rising and falling with his chest, everything was fine now, nothing in the world could go wrong now.
