Young and Hopeless
Chapter 4
'No Secrets'
Disclaimer: Really there is none.
A/N: I have changed my mind so what.
********** Previous chapter: "RIDDLE!" Professor Bursarial's voice rang through the halls. "Run!" They raced up to the common room and then after they caught their breath they went upstairs and changed. They did the little homework they had and went to bed. ********** Response to reviews
Marauder3moony: Don't worry they didn't get caught. Thanks for another unnerving review! Now read and enjoy!
************************************************************************
"Wake up," a voice called in Riddle's ear.
Riddle moaned
"WAKE UP!" the voice now screamed
"What- what happened- who died?" Riddle asked sitting up abruptly. As he looked around he noticed that Professor Irialis (head of Slytherin house) was standing beside his bed.
"What do you want?" Lucius asked waking up.
"I don't want anything from you," the professor said defensively
"Then who does?" Riddle asked
"For your information Head Master Dippet wants you in his office promptly," She stated sternly. "Oh and Mademoiselle Rosewood is waiting for you in the common room." She walked out of there with a swish of her robes.
Riddle got dressed quickly and walked downstairs to find Ruby sitting reading her book. Lucius joined them shortly.
"Ready to go?" Ruby asked looking from Lucius to Riddle
"Yeah, I'm ready," Riddle sighed.
Ruby looked back at Lucius with a look of question on her face.
"What? I am ready!"
Ruby stood up and walked toward the wall with the painting of a snake on it. Riddle and Lucius followed closely behind.
*******************************
When they reached Dippet's office they knocked on the door rather loudly. Dippet answered the knock personally and motioned for the trio to enter.
"Please, have a seat," he said grimly. "So anything strange happen lately?"
"No. not really," Riddle answered coolly and yet he was a little confused.
"What do you mean by not really?"
"Hey, what is this about anyways?" Ruby said defensively.
"Yeah!" Lucius agreed "What she said."
The Professor ignored what they said and turned to Riddle. "Here let me give you a clue. Do the words fire and ice ring a bell?"
"No," Riddle said pretending to ponder the question.
"Oh but I think they do."
"Well. Well. You think too much," Lucius said trying to stay calm.
"No, I think just the right amount," Dippet smiled. "So what is this I hear about Monday? You two" Dippet said looking over to Riddle and Ruby's direction "Did a fire and ice act."
Riddle and Ruby looked at each other with looks of horror upon their faces. They didn't know what to say now.
"He can't know. Nobody knows. How does he know?" Lucius panicked.
Riddle backhanded him across the face.
"Owee,"
"You idiot! You made me lose my train of thought! Riddle shouted looking at Lucius in disgust.
"How do you know about our elements?" Ruby asked suddenly.
"I think someone told about our little innocent, Ruby," Riddle said
"I think you mean incent," Lucius corrected
"No, he means incident," Ruby corrected both of them.
"Yeah! That's what I meant to say!" Riddle exclaimed
"And you call yourself the smartest kid in the school," Ruby laughed
"Anyway you get what I am saying?" Riddle stated
"Yeah, but how could that have happened?" Ruby said with a distant look she was trying to replay the incident in her head. "I mean everyone seemed too afraid of us to tell."
"I'll tell you how," said a prefect entering the office. "You see. I was walking down from my dorm to see what all of the commotion was so early in the morning. Then I saw the ice wall around the girl and thought 'what the?' But then I saw you," he said pointing at Riddle "Melt it away with fire out of nowhere. Then this was brilliant I saw you guys end it with a Ta Da and a 'you didn't see nothin'. At this point everyone looked scared so I figured they weren't gonna tell. So I decided to. I ran up here to tell Dippet and here we are now."
Riddle and Lucius cursed their stupidity.
"Jerk," Ruby mumbled
"Oh by the way, Dumbledore wants to see you."
"You told Dumblefork too?" Riddle whined. "Oh great you might as well tell the whole school now."
"Too late."
"What!" The trio yelled
"Kidding,"
"Damn you!" Riddle coughed
"To hell," Ruby added coughing of course "You may go," Dippet said sternly
They left and walked to Dumbledore's office. Lucius knocked rather loudly again.
"Hello, do come in," Dumbledore answered.
"So why are we here we have better things to do than sit around and have tea," Riddle smirked
"What is this I hear? You three can control elements?"
"I don't know nothin about no elements," Lucius stated coolly
"Yeah what's your point?" Ruby stated and she hit Lucius
(Okay sorry about the interruption but what is it with me and Lucius always getting hit?)
"Well, I am going to have to forbid you from using them."
"What are you the head master or somethin?" Lucius blurted
"There ain't no way you can tell me what to do Dumblefork!" Riddle spat
"If you use your elements I will be forced to send you to Azkaban for at least a year,"
Now all of them were cursing under their breath.
"Now get on with your day," Dumbledore stated
They left leaving the rest of the day up to making them feel better. They were proved wrong. Hopefully tomorrow would be better.
