Chapter 4
~*~*~
Ginny woke up to find herself wrapped around black silk sheets and suddenly looked at where Malfoy had slept last night. She let out that breath that she was holding; he wasn't there. She slowly got up, her body aching more than ever. When he had brought her here last night, she was hurt very badly but he hadn't cared. He had gotten his way with her because of her brother. She had to let him do anything to her or he would make her brother suffer. Now, she had a huge bite mark on between her neck and right shoulder, where he had sucked blood from. She had bruises on her wrists and ankles due to the ropes, on her back, because of his nails, on her cheek, because he had slapped her.
She slowly sat up in her bed using the bedpost as support. When she had gotten, she noticed that she wasn't alone in the room. A house-elf was sitting by the side of bed on the floor. When the elf saw that she had woken up, she slowly got up. Ginny felt sorry for the little elf. The elf was definitely a female and she had bruises all over her hands and legs. She had probably punished herself because her master had told her. Ginny felt a connection with the elf. They both belonged to the second most evil waking on Earth right now.
"Hi there," she softly said not wanting to scare the poor elf.
"Hello, miss," the elf said shaking. Ginny knew at that moment that the humans that this elf had seen were all Death Eaters and they had treated the elf so badly that it was afraid to even talk to a bruised young girl.
"Get up and sit on the bed; the floor looks really cold," she said softly but the elf was still shaking.
"Yes, miss," the elf said with fear in its voice.
"What's your name?" Ginny asked still resting on the bed post.
"Me don't have name, miss. Master call all us elf," the little elf said.
"Now, I can't call you elf. So what about we get a name for you?" Ginny asked smiling.
"Master will not like me having name, miss," she said shuddering at the word, Master.
"We won't tell Master that you have a name, ok?" she asked feeling a little better.
The little elf suddenly seemed to lighten up and looked straight at Ginny smiling.
"You are a good!" the elf exclaimed and then started to slap itself.
Ginny suddenly jumped on the elf stopping it from hitting itself. She held her hands with one hands and slowly calmed down the elf with the other hand. Ginny knew that the elf had slapped itself because it had told Ginny that she was good making its Master seem evil. That bastard doesn't seem evil, he is evil, she thought. After the elf had calmed down, Ginny let go of the elf and tried to sit back resting against the bedpost but when she tried, pain shot through her back and shoulder.
"ahh," she whispered quietly to herself but the elf also heard her.
"Miss is hurt. Me get potion," the elf said smiling and getting off the bed.
"Wait. First, let's give you a name," Ginny said finally being able to rest against the bed post and covering the lower part of her body with the black slick coversheets.
"Yes, miss," the elf sat up on the bed smiling.
"Let's see…" Ginny thought of the elves that she had known. There was Dobby, Winky, and Kreacher. She really like Dobby and Winky because they always talked and sat with her when she used to visit the Hogwarts kitchen in the middle of the night. Ah…Hogwarts. She came back to the current situation of name finding. Then, she finally found the cutest elf name.
"What about Hilly!?!" she exclaimed.
The house elf seemed really happy with the name because the moment, it heard the name, it started nodding its head jumping on the bed, which made Ginny for the first time after the battle laugh.
"Ok, then, Hilly. You can go now!" she exclaimed calming down.
"Miss is great person. Hilly owes Miss. Hilly will do anything to make Miss feel better. Anything," the little elf said as tears rolled down its big eyes.
"No, Hilly. Don't cry please," she whispered as she closed her eyes and when she opened them, the elf had disappeared and at the door stood, her so-called Master.
"Who's Hilly?" he asked with a cold voice as he closed the door and approached the bed.
"No one, Master," she said doing her best to say the word Master,
At that, Lucius practically jumped on her and backhanded her across her right cheek as yesterday. He roughly took her right arm with his left hand and slapped her left cheek with his right hand.
"Don't lie to me, girl!" he hissed at her.
"Sorry," she whispered as her tears once again rolled down her cheeks.
"Now. Who's Hilly?" he asked retuning to his expression-less face.
"An elf," she slowly said hoping that the bastard won't hurt Hilly.
"Odd. The elves here don't have names," he said as if meaning that she was lying to him.
"NO! I swear I named her right now!" she exclaimed not wanting another slap because she knew that if it happened, her neck would crack.
"Call for the elf," he hissed.
"Please, don't hurt it. Please, it was my entire fault," she exclaimed still crying.
"Call the elf, or I will kill it if I find out on my own," he hissed roughly sitting on the bed and pulling her forcefully on his lap.
"Hilly, come here please," she said sorrowfully.
"Don't say please to dirty house-elves again!" he exclaimed as he played with her blood-rusted red hair.
"Yes…Master," she whispered.
The elves suddenly popped in front of them and its eyes grew huge seeing miss, forcefully sitting in her Master lap, crying.
"Elf, I hear that miss here gave you a name. What is it?" the Master asked enjoying the fear in both the Elf and Ginny.
"He---Hil---Hilly," the elf responded shaking.
"Hilly…" he said thoughtfully.
Ginny knew that he was either thinking about the elf's punishment or wondering if the elf really was Hilly. After a few moments, he threw her roughly on the bed and left not without kicking the poor elf out of the way.
Ginny sprang to the help of the poor elf but when she reached the elf, she was slapped by the bastard, who suddenly left after that.
"Oh…Hilly…I am so so sorry!" Ginny exclaimed as she tried to make the elf feel better,
"No…Not miss' fault…Miss tried to help Hilly…Master approved of me name," it said smiling.
"How do you know that?" asked the confused Ginny.
"Master not said to not me name Hilly," the elf said smiling.
"Oh…Hilly, I wish that I was as enthusiastic as you," she said sighing.
"Not worry, miss. 'Vything be ok," the elf said.
"I wish…Hilly…I wish," she whispered more to herself than to Hilly.
Ginny slowly got up, where pain shot through her again, and went to lie in the bed. All of her body hurt and she knew that she probably looked like she went to Hell and back again.
Hilly stood by the side of the bed and when it snapped its tiny little fingers, multiple potions appeared on the beautiful black bedside table.
"Miss take bath. Water in bath," the elf exclaimed dragging Ginny with it to a door across the bed.
The elf opened to open the door; it revealed a dimly-lit bathroom. The only source of lights was the candles floating around at the top of the room. The bathroom was smaller than the Prefects' bathroom at Hogwarts but much more beautiful even if the only colours were green and black. The bathtub was four times the size of a real bathtub and was made out of smooth dull black stone. The bathtub was filled with hot water, because there was steam coming out of the water and there were rose red rose petals floating on the water. All Ginny wanted to do was get in the bathtub.
"If Miss need anything, call for Hilly," and Hilly left the bathroom closing the door behind it.
Ginny slowly took of her clothes and climbed into the bathtub. As she slowly descended in the water, she felt the feel of water on her body after a very long time. The reaction between the water and her body seemed priceless. When she was finally in the water, she just lay there, feeling relaxed. After a long time, she took the shampoo that was near here in bottle which had a snake engraved around the bottle. The shampoo was rose-fragmented and she slowly washed her hair. The blood and the dirt of her hair slowly left leaving beautiful rivers of blood flowing down midway to her back. She slowly cleaned all her bruises and came to the final shoulder one. That shoulder that had been bit seemed paler than the other. They are bite marks where he had bit and rusted blood where blood had flowed down from. She slowly washed her hurt shoulder and wanted to fill the bathtub with clean water when she couldn't see any source where the water came from. After searching for a few seconds she found a silver bell, which had Ring for Fresh Water on it. She rang the bell and fresh water appeared instead of the old one. She just relaxed in her bath and then, climbed out when she once again felt her physical pain.
After she had dried her hair and body, she searched for her Gryffindor uniform but instead of her uniform, there was a black spaghetti-strap silk flowing nightgown, with the other accessories. She was angry that she couldn't still wear her uniform but she did not want to appear naked in front of that psycho bastard. She slowly wore her outfit and walked out of the bathroom to find Hilly sitting standing near her bed, where there were now green silk coversheets. Hilly helped her to sit to bed and went to the potions. It held up a thick silver potion.
"This is for bruises, miss," Hilly said smiling.
Then, it held up a green potion.
"This for head hurt"
It held up a purple potion.
"This for body hurt"
It held up a thick blue potion, which Ginny was familiar with.
"This monthly female potion"
Then, the house elf put all four potions back on the beside
"Thank you, Hilly," Ginny whispered feeling very grateful towards the elf and saw as Hilly burst into tears.
"What's wrong? What did I say wrong?" Ginny asked worriedly.
"Nobody said thank you to Hilly before," the house elf said as it left the room.
Ginny slowly took the silver potion and rubbed in on her ankles, cheeks, wrists, and back. Once the potion was rubbed on the bruises, the bruises quickly disappeared leaving the location of the bruise a little paler. She finally arrived at her shoulder, and rubbed the potion on it. The potion did work but not too well. Ginny didn't know why the potions had healed the bruise but not made it disappear. She, then, drank the three other potions and finally realized that there was a tray of food on the table on the small table between the armchairs. She was really hungry and now that the pain had disappeared, she quickly walked to the food, sat on one armchair and started to eat her lunch, dinner, or whatever it was. There was only soup, bread, and a glass of water. It wasn't a very high-class meal but she didn't really mind. After she finished eating, she slid into bed, and finally for the first time in such a while, she fell into peaceful sleep but the wouldn't help her with what was coming her way the next day..........
