Chapter 14 - Fear

Harry just sat on the floor, eyeing Luna's body. He prayed that she would jump up and shout "surprise." But this wasn't a joke. She was dead and nothing would bring her back. "Harry? My sweet, you must get up now. You're work tonight is not yet over." He looked up and stared at the beautiful, evil glimmering woman stood in front of him. "This didn't happen," he said slowly. She walked towards him and knelt down beside him. "Harry, darling boy, you know that is no true. You felt the power surge through you. You said those words and felt stronger than you have ever felt when she hit the ground, her life snuffed out, by you." Harry got up and leapt back. "NO! You killed her! I couldn't even see it happening." Rosenna smiled at him. "Whatever you want, Harry. I can't see many people believing you though," she gave a sarcastic laugh. "I mean, who is going to believe that a woman who apparently died hundreds of years ago can leap into your body and use it to kill people? Come Harry!" She giggled again. Harry felt sickened but he couldn't help but believe her. The ministry would lock him up for sure and he wasn't sure even Dumbledore would believe him this time. "Fear not Harry, I will not abandon you. I will help you. We must dispose of this thing." Harry looked at her. "How," he asked her. She whispered to him "Teleport." He frowned. Rosenna was looking round the room. "We will have to use something, erm, oh yes, how apt. Harry, that stupid girl's skirt will do". Harry glared at her. "I'm not touching Luna's skirt!" Rosenna gave him an immature giggle and then winked. "Don't be embarrassed baby Harry!" He shook his head. Rosenna's smile faded. "Harry, my dear, please don't make me hurt you again." He looked down then realising that he was too weak to take any more pain. He walked to Luna and ripped off her skirt. "I'm so sorry," he hissed to her. He put her skirt in front of Rosenna who shut her eyes and seemed to reach out to something he couldn't see. She then snapped her eyes open. She sighed then turned around to Harry. "Strong spells take too much out of me Harry. Never you mind, I will be back to full strength soon enough and when I am.." She gave him an impatient flick of the head. "No time to waste Harry. My powers and Tom's protect this room - together we are more than a match for Dumbledores powers - but I want to get this done. Bring her to me" Harry went over to Luna, dragged her by her arms to Rosenna then looked up at the woman. "Hold her hand Harry and touch the skirt, time to dispose of the whelp." Harry did as he was told and felt the familiar strange feeling as he was teleported out of the room.

He felt a cold wind and opened his eyes. He was stood in a clearing. Huge trees towered above him, as if they were hovering over him, preparing to attck. He was sure a thousand eyes were on him. He knew where he was. The Forbidden Forest. It always had this affect on him. "Such a lovely place," Rosenna said from behind him. She was gazing around with an expression of awe on her perfect face. "Don't you feel that Harry? It is so powerful. The sense of - fear." Harry actually shook. He continued to stare at her, waiting for his instructions. He didn't know what he was going to do. Who could he go too? Sirius was gone, Ron was no longer bothered, Hermione would tell him to go to Dumbledore. He couldn't do that. How could he explain to Dumbledore. Even he didn't know anymore why he didn't tell him about Rosenna's mark. "That's obvious," she announced in a sing-song voice. He swung around. "Don't read my thoughts, They're mine. I don't want you hearing them." She shrugged. "Too bad, you shout out these feelings of your so loudly and clearly in your head, I can't help but hear them. Your mind is an open book, my sweet. A pity for you that you cannot control your emotions. A blessing for Tom and I of course." She then began humming and staring into the darkness intently. "This place is perfect Harry. With any luck, something nasty will come along later and eat up her remains anyway." Harry turned away from the beautiful creature and covered his mouth with his hand. He was very grateful that he didn't vomit. He heard the cold laughter in his head again and winced. "Oh, my darling is a happy bunny!" Rosenna exclaimed this loudly and Harry could have sworn he heard something rustling. "Well Harry, you must begin. I must head off soon and I want the job sorted out before I go." Harry was confused. "Begin doing what?" She playfully shook her head. "Dig Harry!" Harry just stood frozen to the spot. "B-but I don't have a spade." The laughter in his head was booming then and he gasped with pain. "Use your hands, darling boy." Harry looked at her fearfully but shook his head grimly. "No, I won't," he said simply. "Come now my love." He brought himself up to his full height and shook his head firmly. "Harry, you are making me angry," Rosenna muttered as he walked towards him slowly. Harry shook slightly but didn't move. Harry heard Voldemort snarl in his head, then hiss "get on your knees and dig Potter." Harry ignored him. "Tom you and I together?" Rosenna called. "I think so," Harry heard in his head and he knew Voldemort was excited. He prepared himself. Then the pain began. His scar burst open and it felt like his head was on fire. At the same time, the pain coming from the mark on his arm was unbearable. Harry howled, tears streaming down his face but he didn't move. He was slowly forced to his knees by the pain. He looked up into Rosenna's face. "You'll have to kill me," he whispered, struggling to get the words out. Rosenna's face now looked purely evil. "Oh no Harry, you can take atleast 4 hours more of this torture before you lose consciouness. I have ways of keeping you awake. You will give up in a moment." He shook his head but he could already feel the strength draining from him. This lasted a few more minutes. The pain seemed to get worse gradually and Harry couldn't take anymore. He cried out for mercy and Rosenna lifted the pain, Voldemort kept his power going longer than necessary. Harry began to claw at the earth with his fingernails, Rosenna enjoyingly ebbing him on. Finally it was done, Luna was in the ground and Harry had covered her up with the earth. His fingers were bleeding, he was covered in dirt and he was exhausted. "Excellent job my sweet", Rosenna exclaimed. "Now, time for me to leave you Harry for now. The next time you see me, I will have a huge job for you to do." Harry stared at her. "You can't leave me here. I'm too tired. Please?" Rosenna put her finge to her lips and Harry fell silent. "You are a smart boy, young Gryffindor. You will find the way back to the school. Bye bye now, its been super fun!" With that, she was gone. Harry tried to listen in his head for Voldemort but all he felt was numb. Voldemort was gone too. He was totally lost and alone in the Forbidden Forest. Fear began to take control of him. He shook himself. No point standing here feeling sorry for yourself Harry, go to go somewhere. He chose a path and walked quickly down it.

He walked what was the most terrifying and lonely walk off his life. The darkness just seemed to close in around him and he was so scared he was having trouble breathing. He imagined every shape to be a spider, every shadow to be a Dementor or Ravenscar and every noise was was a Death Eater, coming to attack him. He knew his mind was playing tricks on him and every step he became quicker and quicker. He stopped. He listened hard. He must have imagined it. He kept walking. There it was again, a rustling from behind him. And a breath. Someone or something was following him. Harry broke into a run. Whoever or what ever it was, it was getting nearer to him. He charged through the bushes and thorns, getting cuts all over his face and hands. He heard the breathing behind him get noisier and closer, and closer and . BANG! He crashed into something large, tough and hairy, he screamed.

"Harry!" A familiar voice boomed. Harry looked up, hardly daring to believe it. "What you doing on the edge of the forest like this? Could have got yourself hurt! Look at the state of you." Hagrid stared down at Harry, cross bow in his hand. He started to brush dirt of Harry's robe and wiped some blood off his face. "Merlins beard! What has happened to you?" Harry was at a loss for words. "Hagrid, I don't know what I'm doing. I don't know what I am going to do." He covered his face. Hagrid looked at him with concern all over his huge face. Harry continued "They can control me, read my thoughts. The make me do things, terrible things. She can come to me as ghosts of people I knew from my past. Hagrid, I'm really scared, I need help." Hagrid gave hima kind smile and patted Harrys arm. Harry grimaced and moved his arm away. "Show me," Hagrid said to him. Harry hesitated then pulled his robe up, revealing the mark he had kept hidden from everyone for months. "Harry, this is the mark of Rosenna Ravenclaw! See, the rose and the ravens bowing to it! We have to get you to the school, got to show Dumbledore." Harry opened his mouth to protest, to tell Hagrid about Rosenna killing Luna but Hagrid was no longer looking at him. He had spun around, his arm still on Harry's arm, but also gripping his crossbow. Then Harry heard it, a noise coming through the Forest, the sound of shouting and hooves. "Go Harry," Hagrid snapped. "Get to the school, tell Dumbledore, show him that mark. You have to tell him Harry. Just go." Harry shook his head. "I can't leave you. That's the centaurs isn't it? They'll kill you." Hagrid gritted his teeth. "That's nothing compared to what they will do to you, Harry. They will sense that on your arm. She is their greatest enemy Harry. You have her mark on your arm. GO!" Harry just stood there, his wand raised. Hagrid let out a roar, picked up Harry and threw him with all his might away from him. Harry tumbled to the ground just on the outskirts of the forest. Hagrid gave him one more look then turned around and raced into the forest. Harry jumped up. "Hagrid!" he cried. Nothing. "HAGRID!" He screamed again but still no reply. Harry couldn't believe this was happening. All of this was his fault.

Just at that moment, Harry heard a noise from behind him. He ran into some shadows and knelt down, as quiet as possible. The figure was walking very quickly, into the Forest. Harry wanted to jump up, to yell a warning but then the figure stopped. Someone was coming out to meet him. Harry gasped, it was a death eater. He froze. Death Eaters in Hogwarts. Then a thought came to him. Malfoy. It had to be. Harry got up slowly and tip-toed closer to the pair. He couldn't hear what they were saying but he was sure they were having an argument. He was quite close to them now. He waited for the plain clothed one to turn around, so he could see who it was. He stood there patiently, trying desperately not to make a sound. Then, at last, the Death Eater turned and walked away. The other person stood there for moment, then turned and walked away. Harry got a good look at his face and froze in horror. RON! Harry couldn't believe it, he knew Ron was upset but to be dealing with Death Eaters? Suddenly, that fateful conversation with Luna came rushing back to him. She had said that Ron was working with Malfoy, working on some "plan". Harry still couldn't believe it. He knew Ron was angry, confused and acting strangely that year but to be a traitor? To join Voldemort? That didn't make sense. Harry just stood there for some time. His mind was in a mess. Luna was dead, killed by his wand. Hagrid had probably been attacked by centaurs, God knew how badly hurt he was. Ron was working with Death Eaters, perhaps even was one. Rosenna Ravenclaw was controlling him at her leisure and he know believed that Rosenna and Voldemort were more than just business partners. He made up his mind. There was no other answer. He would go to Dumbledore and tell him everything. He should have done that a long time ago. Harry turned and run towards the school, making straight for the Head Master's office.

He had made it past Hagrids Hut, which he tried to run past without glancing at, when Rosenna appeared in front of him. This time, she looked very angry, no sign of the sickly sweetness that was usually dripping from her. "I cannot allow you too see Dumbledore Harry, not when I am so close to the end." He glared at her. "Tough!" He went to walk past her, then stopped and grabbed his head when he felt her knocking on the door to his mind. He didn't know where he found a surge of strength from, perhaps it was determination, but he fought against her. "You can't win," she snarled. "No? Well I can tell you what you can do, get the Hell out of my mind!" She screamed but was thrown out. Harry was panting from the effort but he smiled at her. She looked her nose down at him and sneered, a look Malfoy would have been proud of, Harry thought. "You think that was some kind of victory?" She spat, "Idiot Boy! You will not ruin my plans now, you will not go to Dumbledore." Harry shrugged and went to walk past her. "You already said you were weak this evening Rosenna", he said as he walked. "You don't have enough power to stop me. I think it's probably taking to much power just to be here again!" He laughed at her then kept walking. She called after him "Potter, you tell Dumbledore one little thing about me and I will kill your friend Hermione Granger." Harry stopped and turned to look at Rosenna. Fear was building inside him again. "You're bluffing, you can't touch her, not through me." Rosenna smiled. It seemed she had got her arrogance back. " You think I can't get to her? You are wrong. The first moment she steps out of the school grounds, I will destroy her. It will be a very slow and painful death at the hands of my servants. I can make you watch Harry. Don't think that Half-Giant oaf to help you either. I doubt he will be in any state when my old "friends" are through with him. I'll leave you now to think it over. I trust you will make the right decision my sweet. Farewell for now." She vanished, leaving Harry gazing at the spot where she had been. His mind was buzzing. Luna, Hagrid and now Hermione. All his friends were in danger. He sank to the ground, completely at a loss of what to do.

So what do you think? Please if you have read this - review it! Out of interest, do you think is Rosenna making the visions of the dead characters show up or is that something else? I'd like to know your views. Just in case you are getting annoyed about Harry covering his mark up all the time, I've tried to explain that he is terrified. Obviously, he is still getting over Sirius's death, now Luna is dead, which he blames himself for and Hagrid could be in danger too. He's so scared he is losing everyone. Bearing that in mind, do you think he will tell Dumbledore, ignoring Rosenna's threat? Please let me know your comments. Thanks!
