Winning Her Over

Chapter Four

Two Children

Note Hey people thanks to you who reviewed and welcome to those who just joined. I hope you like this chapter. Please read and review. Did you know typing is very boring... I love writing and thinking of stories, but the tedious typing, kills me. I wish I could just zap them onto the computer. Maybe I can find a wizard who can do that for me... I wish!

Disclaimer J.K. Rowling is an absolute genius. She came up with all the settings and characters in my story, except Voldemorts house and Emily.

Ginny lay awake pondering what she would do. Presently the Dark Lord Lay beside her. Winky told her she could help her if she got a little help from people on the outside. Ginny was noticed how much Winky had changed since she stopped drinking butterbeer and became slave to he-who-must-not- be-named. Ginny knew she must escape, but when she rolled over and found her too was awake. Her mind went blank.

"Virginia?" he murmured.

"What?" she whispered in reply.

"I have been thinking," Tom Riddle continued, "I need a childe, an heir to my rule of power. This child must have both power and beauty."

"What?!! Now?" Ginny somehow broke away from his enchanting spell.

He smiled and reached out to touch Ginny's cheek. Her eyes glazed over and she snuggled closer to Voldemort then said, "Of course I will carry our child."

"I am glad you agree. We will speak more of this in the morning." Then he commanded, "Sleep." Immediately, Ginny fell into a deep sleep.

When Ginny awoke the next morning she was in the arms of Tom. He was gently stroking her hair. "Virginia," her whispered, "Are you awake?"

"I am," she replied.

He pressed his lips to hers and kissed her, "You're pregnant!" He paused and when Ginny did not respond he said, "Aren't you excited? We are having a baby!"

"Of course I'm excited; just a little shocked. That's all." She answered. Yes, shocked was the right word. Actually it was putting it mildly. Ginny remembered nothing after Voldemort said 'sleep.'

"If you are still tired, Virginia, you can go back to sleep," he said as he stood up. "I have some business to attend to." When he left the room Ginny called her house elf.

"What can I do for Miss Ginny?"

"Winky, I'm pregnant."

"Congratulations-wait... By the Dark Lord. You are carrying the Dark Lords child?" Winky shouted. Ginny just nodded. "Well" said Winky very business like and completely unhouse-elfish. "This might actually help with the escape plan. Let me explain..."

Ginny thought the plan was crazy, but it might work. Draco would come and tell Voldemort all about Hermione and try to get him to mention Ginny being pregnant. Once the Dark Lord did, Draco would question whether or not it was wise to raise the child around so many dangers. He would then offer to take Ginny back to be cared for by his wife. (Hermione.)

Ginny waited patiently on her bed with Winky beside her.

"He should be calling you any minute, Mistress," Winky said.

One minute later Ginny heard her name being called, "Virginia!" Ginny held Winky's hand and they apparated to the office.

"There you are Virginia," the Dark Lord greeted. He motioned for her to sit beside him. Immediately she fell into her normal trace. When Ginny sat beside him he put his hand around her back and glued their lips together.

Draco cleared his throat with a little, "hem, hem."

Tom pulled away from Ginny and said, "I have decided it is not safe for you here while you are carrying the child. You will be going with Draco to be watched over by his wife, Mrs. Malfoy and Professor Snape."

"Oh Tom, I will miss you, but if it is for our baby, I will do it." Giny put extra emphasis on "our." Tom wrapped his arms around her and gave her one last kiss. He whispered in her ear as she stood up to leave,

"I put a spell on the child to speed up its development. It will be born in one months time." Ginny nodded in response and stood up. "Go with Mr. Malfoy, take Winky with you."

When Ginny took their hands she whispered, "Take me to the graveyard." The three apparated.

When they arrived Draco questioned, "Why are we here in the graveyard?"

"That girl is not dead; she is just stunned. I stunned her before the killing curse hit her. I have been trying to get back here." Ginny told them. Soon they came upon a girl that was still stunned.

"Wow, Mistress, that was a strong stunning spell; she is still out cold," Winky said.

Ginny replied, "It had to be if I wanted her heart to stop beating for a minute." Ginny walked over and revived the girl.

"Not more of you?" the 10 year old girl said weakly.

"Shhh..." Ginny comforted the child, "What is you name?"

"Emily," the girl trembled.

Ginny smiled kindly, "Where do you live?"

"At New Hope Children's Home."

"Is that around here?" Ginny asked.

"Not, they took me far away," the Emily replied.

"Do you know where New Hope is?"

"No," Emily sobbed.

"Well you can come with us then. We promise not to hurt you." Emily looked up at Ginny and blinked away her tears. Ginny smiled, "My name is Ginny. Here let me carry you; you must still be weak." When she stood up Draco glared at her, but said nothing. When they held hands they all apparated. Ginny was surprised when they turned up in a little, cozy, cottage.

"Hermione," called Draco. A young woman came running into the room. She embraced Draco and kissed him on the cheek.

"Ginny!" She shrieked as she hugged her. "I was so worried about you. Draco explained everything. Was the Dark Lord horrible to you?"

"Actually, he was quite hospitable to me. Although most of my time I with him, I was in a trance. Oh and I forgot to introduce you to this little girl. Her name is Emily. She is a muggle, but I just don't want the ministry to wipe her memory."

"Of course we don't," Hermione said in a loud voice drowning out his feeble attempts to say something on the matter." Hermoine glared at her husband and he shrunk back, "Right, Draco."

"Oh I suppose," he said grudgingly.

Suddenly Hermione burst out, "Is that Winky?"

"Yes," the elf answered.

"But How?" Hermione asked. Winky sat down and began to explain the story. Ginny decide this was a good time to go settle Emily in. Ginny took her to the spare bedroom and tucked her in.

Once Emily was comfortable Ginny said, "I will go get you something to eat. You must be starving. You have not eaten in days. Just wait here." A minute later Ginny returned with some warm soup and some chocolate milk.

"How did you do that so fast?" the young girl asked. Ginny explained how she was a witch. Then Emily said, "Sometimes I can do magic." Ginny laughed imagining some silly muggle trick.

"Show me you trick," Ginny requested.

"I don't know how I do it but once when I was really mad at this girl I turned her hair purple. One time I fell out of a tree and slowed down in midair like I had a parachute or something," Emily explained. Ginny was shocked. Could this girl be a witch too?

"Well that is very astounding," Ginny said when she recovered, "but I think you should get some rest. Here take this." Ginny handed the child a dreamless potion. "Sleep well." She turned off the light and exited the room.

Ginny entered the other room. Snape who had arrived minutes ago greeted her, "Welcome back. I have been so worried about you. Come and sit down. We have some important matters to discuss.

Ginny obliged and sat down Snape continued, "We need to duscuss your education. You do wish to continue it, don't you?" Ginny nodded. Snape said, "Well we can not allow you to resume classes with your peers, but starting next year (Ginny had already finished her 5th year) you may join in private classes with Hermoine."

"That would be wonderful," Ginny said.

"Good, I'm glad you don't mind."

"By the way," Ginny announced, "That young girl says she has some magic when she was angry before. Do you think she could be a witch?" Ginny questioned.

"Hmm..." thought Snape, "Dumbledore said he will be sending out the letters in a weeks time. You will find out them. Sorry that I have to leave so soon, but the staff are having a meeting on your private education and I must not be late."

'Thank you professor." Ginny said as he apparated.

Suddenly a wave of sickness came over Ginny and she excused herself to bed.
