Chapter 10: Another Visit From You- Know- Who

Gwen had fallen into such a deep sleep, that she didn't even hear the door open. She didn't hear her hangings being pulled back, but she did hear a male voice.

" Gwendoylen, guess who?" it hissed.

' If it is one of them boys, they are so dead,' she thought. She opened her eyes.

" AHHHHHHHHHHH!" she screamed.

" Hello. So are you ready to be finished off?" Voldemort asked pleasantly.

" How did you…but you…?"Gwen began stuttering.

" Well, I brewed up a potion to make me invisible, then I snuck past everybody, then I came here."

" But the enchantments?" Gwen stated.

" They are so weak against me. Now, are you ready to meet your doom?"

" NO!" she shouted. Gwen jumped from her bed and ran down the stairs.

The party was still raging and when everyone saw Gwen come running the girls' dormitories in pajamas, they stared at her.

" Bad dream?" Harry asked.

Gwen looked petrified. " Forget dream. Voldemort was in MY bedroom."

" You have got to be kidding me." Harry said in skepticism.

" I swear I saw him." Gwen looked at some people who were snickering. "I'm not kidding. Go to my room yourself."

But before anyone could move or say anything, Voldemort came down the stairs. Apparently, he didn't know everyone was still in the Common Room.

" I need a window, quick." Then he noticed everybody. " Now, I'm going to have to finish all of you off." Voldemort pulled out is wand.

" Everyone duck." Harry said. He ran over to where Gwen was standing.

" Well if it isn't fearless Potter, and his sidekick, Gwen." Voldemort sneered.

" Shut-up." They said in unison.

" I told you to never talk to me like that!" Voldemort hissed.

Footsteps could be heard from outside.

" Well, I'll get you next time. Pleasant dreams." Voldemort ran to the window, and jumped out.

" Is he crazy?" Harry asked.

" Yes." Gwen said. Then she fainted.

" Gwen, it's me, Oliver."

Gwen looked up. " What happened?" she asked groggily.

" You fainted. Apparently, seeing You- Know- Who caused you to go into shock."

" Did Harry tell the professors?"

" Yes, don't worry about that. Dumbeldore put this spell on you that made you tell everything that went on in your room. They even searched it and put a charm on it."

" How long have I been her?"

" Just six hours."

" What time is it?"

" It's only 5:00. Now quit asking questions and go to sleep." Oliver said sternly.



Later on that in Charms, Gwen couldn't help but talk to Harry and Ron.

" I mean, come on, there is no way that Voldemort got past the enchantments that easily." Gwen said.

" Don't say the name." Ron hissed.

" Anyway, Ron, who does George have before lunch?" Gwen asked.

" He has McGonagall, why?" Ron said suspiciously.

" No reason."

" Now tonight for homework, you are to write two parchments on the Bubble Charm. You are excused." Professor Flitwick said from his pile of books.

Everybody rushed out of the classroom. Gwen was heading down the corridor, when Ron called out to her.

" Where are you going?"

" I wanted to speak to Ginny." Gwen lied.

" See you later."

Gwen waited for Ron to get further down the hall before she headed to McGonagall's class. She made sure that she arrived just in time for the twins to come out, so she didn't look like she was about to do something. Fred noticed her, and the two of them walked over to her.

" You aren't pulling an Oliver on us and making us practice during lunch?" Fred asked.

" First off, Oliver didn't do that, and I don't want to talk to you. I need to talk to George, if you don't mind." Gwen stated.

" Okay. I'll just go down to the Great Hall. Be there quick, though, George. Lee wanted to show us something, remember." Fred raised his eyebrows.

" Oh, yeah." George said absentmindedly.

Gwen pulled George over into an empty classroom, and made sure nobody was around.

" Would you stop twisting your hands around?" Gwen asked.

" Oh, sorry." George blushed.

" I thought really long, well actually for a few minutes, and I have decided that I would like to be your" she didn't get the chance to finish.

" Really. Wow. I thought for sure you would like scream at me or something."

" Well, let's go before Fred or Harry sends out a search party."

So the two of them walked to the Great Hall holding hands. Of course, Malfoy always made a mean remark to Gwen, so that way nobody would think that he was nice or anything.

" Well, if it isn't a Weasley, with Wood stuck to it." Draco drawled.

" Well, if it isn't Mr. Jerk. I'm surprised that Snape isn't hanging to your every word." Gwen retorted.

Gwen and George walked to the Gryfinndor Table and sat with Harry and everyone else. Gwen looked at every one of their faces.

Harry looked like he would burst out laughing.

Hermione was shocked.

Aimee looked like her mouth was going to fall off.

Jeremiah looked as if he would have a heart attack.

Ginny was confused.

Fred looked as if he knew this would happen.

Cleo and Allysa both had a look that said ' You have got to be kidding.'

Ron, however, looked really upset.

The two of them sat down and looked at each other.

" What is wrong?" Gwen asked.

" Nothing." Harry said.

" Yeah, we just found this such a surprise." Hermione added.

Ron said something about going to the library, and left.



Later on that evening, Gwen couldn't figure out why Ron was avoiding her.

" Well, I think Ron is just a little upset about the whole George thing." Hermione said offhandedly.

" Well, let's go to the prefect meeting." Gwen said.

When they got to the third floor, they saw the teachers running.

" Go to the Hall." McGonagall said.

They didn't even ask why. They ran all the way down there. When everyone in the school was down there, Dumbeldore stood up. Everyone went quiet.

" Students, I'm afraid to say this, but you must know. The village of Hogsmeade was destroyed today. Those of you who lived around there, your possessions have been removed and treated the best they could be. No one was killed, though a few people have been injured. Tonight, you are to stay here, where the teachers can watch you." Dumbeldore conjured up some sleeping. " I must go to Hogsmeade to help." Dumbeldore swept out of the room.

Everyone climbed into a sleeping bag and eventually drifted off.
