Title: Gwendoylen's Year

Chapter 13: Guess Who Makes an Appearance?

A.N.- Sorry for the short chapters. I promise I will make them longer.

" Um, is anyone there?" Gwen asked nervously. ' I must be imagining things.' she scolded herself for thinking that the door could open on it's own.

Then the candles went out.

" Okay, if you don't show yourself, now, I will get the Headmaster." Gwen voice quivered.

" BWHAHAHAHAHA!" came the high-pitched voice from somewhere in the dark.

" That is it. Show yourself, now." Gwen was really scared.

Then she noticed red eyes, and screamed.

" Why, scream, Gwendoylen? In a matter of minutes, you won't feel a thing." came Voldemort's voice.

" Where are you?" Gwen asked.

" Behind you."

Then Voldemort pushed her head under the water.

" It doesn't matter where I'm at now, does it. BWHAHAHAHAHA!"

Gwen was struggling under Voldemort's grasp. Then the door opened.

" Lumos." somebody whispered. Then a thin beam of light struck the floor.



A.N.-(Sorry for interrupting, but I should tell you that the bath tub is filled with bubbles, and it is impossible for anyone to see anything, like in the Goblet of Fire. Thanks!)



" Well, if it isn't Mr. Potter and his sidekicks." Voldemort sneered.

" What are you up to now?" Harry asked through clenched teeth. At this moment Gwen escaped from Voldemort's grasp.

" AH!" Hermione screamed.

" Good grief, Voldemort, have you lost your touch? Any body can drown a person in a bath tub." Harry laughed.

" Hush, or you will join her." Voldemort sneered, yet again.

Gwen ran over to where her towel was, and wrapped it around her.

" See what you have caused me to do? You let Gwen escape my clutches, yet again. Next time she won't be so lucky." With that, Voldemort left.

" I'm I mad, or did he just walk out of the door, as if he ran the place?" Harry asked.

" Now, I can't even take a bath, without wondering if Voldemort sneaking up on me." Gwen sighed.

" Well, hurry and get dressed. We'll guard the door." Hermione said.

Gwen got dressed. Then the four of them went to Dumbeldore's Office.

" What's the password?" Hermione whispered.

" Chocolate Frog." Gwen whispered.

The stone gargoyle sprang to life and jumped to the side. They walked to the magical stairs, and rode up them. When they got to the door, Harry knocked.

" Come in, Harry." Dumbeldore said.

They walked in.

" Sir, Gwen was just attacked by Voldemort." Harry said.

Ron flinched, and Gwen rolled her eyes at him.

" Again? That makes the third time this year." Dumbeldore's eyes had the look of shock in them.

" Yes, sir. I was taking a bath, and he came in and blew out the candles." Gwen told him. " I guess he didn't really want to kill me, or he would have locked the door."

" What did he try to do?"

" He tried to drown me in the bath tub."

" Well, please go back to your Common Room, and glen stay in your dormitory until breakfast. I'll have Professor McGonagall escort you to the Great Hall in the morning."

They walked back to the Common Room, and Gwen went straight to bed.



The next morning after Gwen finished dressing, Professor McGonagall walked Gwen to the Great Hall. She sat with her friends.

" Hello, Neville." Gwen said.

" Oh, hello. I think Gran is going to send me my Hogsmeade slip."

As if on cue, the owls swept in. Hedwig dropped Harry a note, as did a tawny owl with the Daily Prophet for Hermione. After reading his note for a second, Harry scribbled something on the back, and sent Hedwig away.

" Sirius wants us to visit him when we go to Hogsmeade today." Harry said with a grim expression.

" He's back? But I thought Dumbeldore sent him of to find the 'old gang'." Ron said.

" He said for us to meet him at the joke shop." Harry glanced at Hermione's paper. " What's wrong? Oh, no." Harry face fell.

" What's wrong?" Gwen and Ron asked.

Hermione pointed to an article.

1 The Many Problems At Hogwarts

By: Rita Skeeter

Hello dearest readers, I'm sorry for not writing for so long.

However, do I have a story for you?

Yesterday at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry,

the famous Harry Potter, the boy who lived, and Gwendoylen Wood, Pro- Quidditch player Oliver Wood's younger sister, told yet another wild story.

It seems that the duo have come up with the little story of You- Know- Who

coming back to power. They said that he attempted to drown Miss Wood in

the Prefect's Bathroom.

Another problem is, Minister Dumbeldore is allowing Arabella Figg, a former Auror,

to teach the Dark Arts. I'd rather have a were-wolf teach than that old lady.

And the icing on the cake is Reubus Hagrid is still teaching at Hogwarts.

No wonder there is only 1,000 students at Hogwarts, now.

Until next week, keep close watch on your children.



Gwen glared at the paper.

" How could she write this? This is so…fake." Gwen was really angry.

" I'm telling Dumbeldore." Harry said. He too, was angry.

" I told her she wasn't to writer for a year and it had to be truthful." Hermione said in awl.

" That's not the point." Harry, Gwen, and Ron said together.

" Well, let's get to class." Hermione said as she got up.

They all walked to their Transfiguration lesson.

" Today, we will be transfiguring rocks into chickens." Professor McGonagall.

" Rocks to chickens?" Seamus asked.

" Yes, Finnigan. You might be stranded in the mountains and not have any food, so this would useful." McGonagall said stiffly. " Now, does everyone have a rock?"

Everyone nodded.

" This is stupid." Seamus muttered.

" Now the incantation you are to use is 'rockus turnus chickus'. Understood?"

" Yes." They muttered.

" Okay, first practice saying the spell." she waited for everyone to finish. " Then point your wand at the middle of the rock and say the spell."

" Rockus turnus chickus." everyone said.

Everyone's rock turned into a chicken, except Neville's. His turned into a half-chicken, half- rock.

" Very good. Now, you must build a fire. But since this isn't my type of skills area, I will have Professor Figg teach you the proper way to build a fire in the wilderness."

Professor McGonagall walked out and Professor Figg walked in.

" Okay class. All you have to do to is make something out of materials around you. I suggest if you can find wood, gather it and put it in a pile. Then you can make a little 'muggle oven' from rocks and moss. I have the materials you need to build these things, and I will help you out if you have a problem."

She gave everyone the materials and they began work. After everyone had built the ' muggle oven', she allowed him or her to cook his or her chicken.

" That was the best class ever." Dean said as they exited the room.

" Who would have thought that it was so easy to build an oven?" Seamus exclaimed.

" Come on. I want to get to Hogsmeade before a lot of people get there." Harry said.

They ran to their dorms and put their things away, and headed to Hogsmeade.



A.N- Told ya I would make the chapter longer. Anyway, the ' rock to chicken' idea was my brother's. If ya have a comment about it you can write it in the review, or e-mail it to my brother at armyman25508@yahoo.com. If I confused ya, Hogsmeade has been repaired since this happened in their time a few weeks ago, and they can repair things quicker.

I would also like to thank Wondercat Mio-chan for reviewing my story, and if you would like please read her story " The Legend". I for one think that it is really good. Please R&R. Thanks!
