Ginny woke about three weeks later, though she knew not where she was. She thought she was lying down on a bed of some sort, yet she felt as if she was floating. Since she couldn't tell where she was with her eyes closed, she gathered all her might and opened her eyes. 'What brightness, where am I?' Ginny thought. Well, she was inside a building that was for sure. The walls were starched white, as were the linens on all the beds and there were quite a few. Yet, as Ginny looked around she saw nobody in the beds or in the room near here. "This place looks familiar, it must be somewhere in Hogwarts for I can't remember a room as such in the burrow" Ginny thought. Ginny had decided that she must close her eyes for with the ache she already had she didn't need to have a head ache too from the light of the sun and the colors of this room. As Ginny closed her eyes she herd someone come into the room Ginny could tell that the person was a woman.
Ginny thought it would be useful to see who it was. Since Ginny realized she was very vulnerable just lying there, so as Ginny opened her eyes the women started speaking, to whom she was speaking to Ginny was unsure. "Well I see you're finally awake dear. If you wouldn't fall asleep again I'll go grab Professor Dumbledore he said that he wanted a word with you as soon as you were awake." The lady said to Ginny. As the lady left Ginny got a better view of the lady. She was tall and had a very light and shimmer complexion. She looked as if she was barely 25 but it looked as if her job definitely took a toll on her. She was thin yet as everything else in the room she had on white clothing. "I am in a hospital, but why?" Ginny asked herself out loud. "That is precisely why I have come to speak to you Ginny." Ginny immediately turned to where the voice was coming from and she saw Professor Dumbledore. She was somewhat relieved though she had hoped to be to be alone for longer so that she may be able to finish her conversation with herself though it seemed now as if that wouldn't be happening. "Dumbledore what happened and why am I here instead of in class, I can't miss a day, if I get behind I'll do horrible on the finals." Ginny said franticly she wasn't sure what day it was but she knew she'd have problems in all her classes. And she knew she'd never have a chance to catch up her missed work because her family and friends would be all over her for a while. Ginny's thoughts were disturbed by Dumbledore's question "Ginny do you remember anything before you woke up here?" Dumbledore was sure she wouldn't remember anything but he truly wished he didn't have to use magic to bring back her memories. Dumbledore was sure that when Ginny found out what happened no matter what it was she would be hurt by it and that caused him great distress knowing in the end he would bring pain and hurt to her. 'How could something bad happen to such a sweet innocent girl?' Dumbledore thought and the only answer he had was that he had no clue. "I was here in Hogwarts but I don't know when or what I was doing or anything." Ginny didn't understand why was she here and why does Dumbledore look so sad or nervous? Ginny now was getting really nervous did Voldemort come back and take her body over again? Did she harm someone again? Oh how Ginny wished to just forget about all that and put it in the past. But as much as tried, the whole experience permanently scared her emotionally. Finally Ginny got up enough courage to find out what happened. "Professor Dumbledore what happened? What did I do? Who did I hurt? Did 'he' come back is this why we're meeting, just like last time?" Even as Ginny asked she knew once again she had asked a question that she didn't want the answer to. But then Ginny started to think about the last meeting like this with Professor Dumbledore and the horror of what she found out then, god how she hoped that wouldn't happen again. Without Ginny even realizing she had done it, she had started crying about the whole experience with Voldemort which was absolutely horrific. At the sight of her all sad and broken Dumbledore soul sank lower than it already was. He wanted to make her feel better and erase all the horrible things that happened to her. Children shouldn't have to deal with such horrible events they have their whole adulthood to deal with that. Children should lead innocent lives, not ones struck with fear and problems. 'Dumbledore you old fool they didn't make you head master of a school because you act like a child, pull yourself together and comfort her and get the information you need to finish here.' Dumbledore said to himself. "Ginny, please look at me. Something happened to you last week, while the rest of your class mates went to Hogsmead. We need you to help us figure out what happened, ok?" Dumbledore tried to speak with the same tone as he always did. "Ginny think of what happened but don't harm yourself. I shall come back after dinner and then we can talk some more, ok?" Ginny wasn't sure what to do so she just simply nodded her head signaling her agreement. Then she watched him leave her alone, she didn't understand. How could he, Professor Dumbledore not know? He was supposed to know everything that happened here. He is the one responsible for keeping us children safe. Yet, he, the protector knows not of what happened? "Dear you mustn't trouble yourself with the thoughts of the past. You should get some rest, I'm sure Dumbledore and McGonagall shall figure out the events of last week. Don't worry sleep now and you can try and remember later when you're well rested." The nurse said and then left her corridor. Ginny decided that the nurse was right and a little rest would do her well.
