Going to find Dumbledore seemed like a good idea, but making it there was
another story. Standing by the staircase up to the second floor, where
Albus' office entrance was, stood Harry. Ginny skid to a halt in front of
him. His eyes were black as night and so was his aura. Ginny stepped in
front of Draco, instinctively protecting him.
"My ,my Ginny. It's taken you long enough. I was beginning to think you'd be too stupid to figure it out. Seeing as how long it took you to, what were you calling it? Find yourself?" His voice had changed. It was scratchy and very deep. "You're a pathetic mortal, that's all you are. You're no God! Worshiped as one for centuries!! Ha!! How stupid humans can be!" He was filled with rage, but so was Ginny. She remembered what this thing had done to so many, and resented the way it thought of her species.
She stood tall and proud, "Draco, leave."
It was an order, and Draco never took order very well.
"Ginny, I don't want to leave you with.."
Ginny yelled at him with out tearing her eyes off what used to be Harry. "I said leave! I'm sorry, but I must do this alone!"
Harry's black eyes turned to Draco as he began to back away. "You take orders from a mere woman?!?! You're weak!!!"
Draco, still backing away spoke up defensively. "If she says go, I will. I know what you are and I know that if I stay here it will only keep Ginny's mind off you."
The thing's evil smile crept over its face. The teeth were pointed and sharp. It seemed to look less and lees like Harry by the minute. "Not as dumb as you look."
He began to walk towards Ginny and she backed up with it, trying her best to block it's view of Draco who was still backing away, himself. "But I still owe you! I warned you to stay away from this little bitch or I'd kill you. I think it's time to make good on that!!"
Its hand flew up and pointed past Ginny to Draco, but Ginny responded faster and threw it back and into the staircase. "Run!!" Ginny yelled and without turning around she heard Draco's pounding footsteps moving quickly down the hall.
Harry's eyes went back to Ginny. "Nice trick bitch!! Too bad for you they won't save you! I've got a very powerful host here. You might as well give up and let me drain your vessel now. I promise to make you scream!"
Ginny's body was burning and she was now floating about a foot off the ground. She laughed at Harry. "You won't be in Harry for much longer."
It' eyes burst into dark pools of blood red. "You will have to kill this vessel to remove me from it!!"
Ginny shook her head at the thing controlling Harry. It was now on its feet and advancing on her. She reached out and held him with a very power freezing charm. His arms and legs began to shake as tried to break free. "Harry will live, but you will not."
A shaky smile crept upon its face. She shuddered inwardly at the memory she had of the creature in its true form. Like this it was creepy, but one main difference was the size of its teeth. "You underestimate me Extirpar. You always have." She blinked and when she opened her eyes. The world was covered in flame and Ginny knew her eyes were on fire as well. "Evellere Extirpar!!!!!!" Her voice boomed through the school causing the whole castle rock and shake as the spell hit Harry.
She watched as Harry screamed. Ginny felt horrible for him because she new extracting a demon from a person's body would not be a pleasant feeling, for either him or the demon. When the Extirpar was removed completely from the now lifeless body Ginny screamed, "Amovere!!", sending the creature outside. She couldn't kill it inside the castle without destroying the school.
She glided quickly out to the Entrance hall in front of the Great hall. There was a line of teachers and students, including Draco, who where trying to break down the force field she had placed. She heard gasps as she neared them.
"Is that Ginny Weasely?" People murdered around the hall. When she came upon Minerva, she told her where Harry was and to hurry, much longer without medical help and he could die.
His screams no doubt threw the whole school into a panic. Some probably thought she had killed him. Minerva only nodded her head and Ginny did the same causing the force field to fall and several of the students pushing on it to fall forward. The crowd parted as Ginny went through, many actually jumped away from her they were so afraid, but she ignored them all. Some followed her to the doors that opened to the yards, but Ginny sealed the doors behind her. She didn't want anyone to get hurt, besides the Extirpar.
Outside it looked as though a giant rain cloud was hovering over the lake, but Ginny knew better. She glanced about quickly to make sure no one was there, but no one was. They had all probably run inside to see what the commotion was. Ginny looked back up at the cloud as it descended upon her.
She quickly performed a protection charm on herself as it surrounded her completely. Out of the mists two dark red eyes appeared accompanied by a mouth as big as the Quidditch field with jagged teeth the size of cars. It was all too familiar to Ginny.
Its voice boomed around her like thunder. "Give up and I will spare this land. All I want is you!!!" Bells echoed though the mass as Ginny laughed at it. The Extirpar's grayness turned to pure black and made Ginny feel like she was in a black hole. She could feel it pressing in around her protective shield.
"You lie."
"You die!!!" The creature bellowed as it began to shock Ginny with magical thunderbolts. They were stronger than her shield and began to hit her. She was thrown around and a echoing laugh pounded through her head. The hits were quick, and every time Ginny tried to regain herself she was hit again, and again, and again.
She was starting to loose consciousness. She tried to draw on her anger which usually gave her power, but couldn't. The icy hand of death felt like it was on her shoulder, but through the darkness a light came. It pierced the darkness in Ginny's mind.
She saw them. Two twin girls with icy blond hair, curly, much like hers. They were running towards something. Ginny tried to concentrate on the image before her mind's eye. She heard a familiar voice ring out loud
"Girls! Come here!! Come on!! That's my girls." It was Draco.
Ginny's heart burst as he picked each little girl up and held one on each arm. They faced her smiling and waving. "You can do it love. We know you can." His face was lit up like she had never seen it. "Come on love, wake- up, you can do it baby!! For us!! He bounced the girls in his arms.
"Yeah mum!! You can do it!!! We love you!!!" Ginny felt a tear trickle down her face. She had to kill this thing. She had to, for Draco, and those two little girls. Real or not, she had to. She reached out for them, but they disappeared.
Her voice sounded around her and fire burst forth from her body and mouth, lighting the dark and blocking the lightening as she yelled, "DIE!!!!!!!"
As the light from the fire spread over the darkness she heard an earth shattering bellow from the dieing creature. When the darkness and noise was gone Ginny stopped screaming and began to fall. She had been taken far into the sky by the creature and now she fell, unable to stop herself due to pure exhaustion. Her last thought was of the image of her 'family'.
A/N: Did anyone pick up on why Harry wanted Draco out of the way? Because his love was the key to defeating it!! Please Review!!!
