~*History of Magic Class*~
Ginny yawned, it was only her first class but she was already feeling like it had to be the end of the day. She rested her head in her hand, her elbow propped up on her text book, the ghost professor drawled on about how Ancient Greek Myth's weren't just based on muggles imagination.
"Those sort of mythical beasts like the gryphon, the sirens, medusa etcetera are all based on beasts raised and studied by wizards. But int the case of Medusa..she was only the queen of the Gorgons..there were many more besides her. Thought a gorgon has not been spotted by any witch or wizards since Medusa was in power, some believe they are still around. Now what does this have to do with the History of Magic you ask?"
"No.."Ginny muttered.
"Well for one your going to have to do papers on how Muggles twisted the real origins of any Greek Mythology due.."
Ginny let her head fall on top of her books, this was so dull she thought she was going to pass out , she wished somebody was here to knock her out of this abyss of boredom. But as she looked to Missy for help, she found her friend already snoozing on top of her books. Luckily Ginny caught the last bit of what Professor Binns had said.
"Now once you've chosen what myth out of the ones I've read aloud please come up here and write down on the parchment which one your writing on."
With a small sigh Ginny when up to the desk with the crowd of other students writing her name in her own hand, she had chosen to research "Gorgons" or whatever because it was the only one she had heard him talking about.
~Lunch~
Draco yawned flopping onto his bed, being a prefect he got his own room. He was exhausted and after giving Ginny a kiss goodnight after Quidditch practice he'd gone straight up to his room.
"Draco stop your whining you sound like you've actually done work today" Mandy scolded him, she was sitting on a pile of pillows in a corner of the room doing her homework.
"I did do work today, besides you didn't do work either.." he argued. Mandy had been placed in Ravenclaw, but she was allowed to visit Draco because they were related, well that was their excuse if the found out she wasn't really allowed.
"Drooling over Potter doesn't count" he snorted, she threw him a disgusted look.
"I have no idea what your talking about." she said, her proper schooling showed in the way she said that, a little snotty and way to proper.
"My ass.." he said bitting into a licorice wand he had gotten from Hermione on the train.
"I seriously wish you'd grow up Draco ..besides it not any of your business who I "drool" over anyway is it? I don't say anything when you moan Ginny's name in your sleep." she spat.
"I DO NOT!" Draco retaliated throwing the rest of his candy at Mandy, it hit her square in the face and fell onto her book. She looked up and pounced on him tackling him to the ground.
"You fucking idiot!!" she laughed hitting him in the head with his pillow. He laughed trying to move.
"Hey you had it coming..lying about me moaning and shit..your so full of it!" he laughed getting free and picking her up easily.
"Let me down!!" she screamed, the walls were stone so it echoed but no one else could hear outside.
"Alright.." he said he pretended to drop her onto the floor catching her before she fell and tossed her back onto her pile of pillows.
"There ya go..now get out of my room" he ordered. She looked up blowing her dark hair out of her face.
"I beg your pardon? How about please?" she asked.
"Unless you want to watch me get changed..I know most girls would jump for the opportunity but its rather sick as you're my cousin.." he said starting to take of his robes.
"Ew ew ok stop! I'm going." she quickly gathered up her stuff and left. He heard the door close and open again but he was looking the other way when he felt something hit him sharply on the back of the head. Looking down onto the carpeted floor he saw the rest of the licorice wand behind him.
Yawning after taking off his robes and changing into a pair of comfy black pajama bottoms he fell onto his bed, blew out the candle in the room and fell quietly asleep.
~*Draco's Dream..*~
Draco looked around, mist swirled around his feet spreading out as he moved, there was a horrid chill wherever he was, Draco was in his pajama bottoms made of thin silk and he held back the shiver he felt coming on.
Looking around it appeared he was in an underground cavern, high walls made of stone were dripping with water, there were statues of snakes everywhere, several of them lining the path out into what looked like metal tunnels. On the largest wall was a grand scale stone carving of a man with long hair and evil, cold looking eyes. His mouth was open but there was nothing inside, but a faint hissing. Draco stepped closer and found that he was up to his ankles in water, an ice cold water that seemed to be tainted, it had a foul smell, like death. As he got closer to the hole he heard the hissing of millions of snakes, he could hear them writhing around, but he stepped away quickly as the sounds changed. Loud screams, screams of erotic pleasure some creature was feeling echoed in his ears, but they were unearthly screams, the most high pitched noises he had ever heard. Whatever it was, Draco did not want to know what was going on down there.
Draco turned and a fowl smell hit him like a ton of bricks, he nearly threw up when he saw what lay at the edge of the water, its tail, well he thought it was a tail, being splashed with water as it moved.
It was a rotting carcass of an enormous snake, the body reeked and was molding. He could hear the rats eating at its flesh, trying to tear through its scales. Draco looked around his feet, that's what the water was tainted with, quickly he moved up onto a rock. The beast's eyes were gouged out, or maybe they'd rotted with time, he couldn't really tell, it had a monstrous head with hundreds of large very lethal looking fangs, the largest had to be bigger then Draco himself.
Draco had to tear his eyes away from the beast to look about the room, the only other things he noticed was a large, shining puddle of black liquid that looked like it had been dry for some time, it was flaking but still incredibly large. The other was a man with messy black hair to rival Harry's, he looked about Draco's age but he was glaring at Draco with a look that made Draco felt like he'd been plunged into a bucket of ice. Draco stared back with his cool grey-blue eyes (AN: I changed that to the right sounding color I've changed Ginny's back to her real eye color) into the mans dark and cold green ones.
"I've had her..she was mine and now you have her...I'll get her back and then they will all pay..None of you can save her once she's mine.." he said, his voice itself was like steel nails, piercing and cold. Draco looked at him, his fingers curled, he longed to punch him square in the jaw..he knew he was talking about. He knew who this was, all those times Ginny had been sitting in his arms and she had her flashbacks and started to cry silently, Draco knew who and what had caused it, he'd played her like a miserable puppet....
This man was Tom Riddle, better known as Voldermort.
"You wont get her back..I'll protect her until I die..you'll never lay another finger on her.." Draco said back, he was surprised at how noble and brave his voice said, Tom's eyes widened catching the threatening tone Draco retaliated with, then his lips slipped into a smirk Draco loathed from the moment he saw it.
"Then maybe I can help the death part along quicker..I'll be coming for you." he said, he burst into a few laughs that made Draco jump off his rock and come towards him in anger. Tom had no wand and Draco would rip him apart with his bare hands. But before he could lay a hand on him, everything went foggy again, he looked as it cleared, but Tom was gone.
Draco woke up to find he'd been sweating, he shivered standing up. It was a dream, only a dream, but when he looked down at his feet he found he hadn't been sweating, his pants were wet, as though he had been standing in water. As he inhaled startled, his heart racing he could smell one thing: the smell of a rotting beast.
~*Gryffindor Girl's Dorm*~
Ginny woke up, finding she was crying heavily, that her shirt clung to her skin, damp with sweat. Her face was sweating too and her hair was clinging uncomfortably to her forehead and cheeks. She was on the floor, twisted in her blankets the moonlight streaming into her room casting a white-silver glow onto her.
That dream..it had been so vivid, so real..but it couldn't be could it? She could never remember her dreams, but this one was so real and she could remember everything, the feeling, the temperature, the smell..everything.
She had been wearing a silver dress, long and off the shoulders, made of satin and the most beautiful dress she'd ever seen. She had been spinning on a grassy hill, held in someone's warm arms, she smiled into those blue-grey eyes with her chocolate brown ones, those eyes she'd know anywhere..they were Draco's. She turned suddenly staring at the stars, her back to him, she felt his hands leave hers, the warmth left her. But when she felt hands wrap around hers they were ice cold, she was turned around roughly, and her scream caught in her throat.
Tom Riddle was smiling at her, his one arm around her waist. He was dressed exactly as Draco had been, a black shirt with green elegant patterns at the edge's of the arms and buttons, with black pants. Her breath was heavy and her eyes wide with terror.
"Did you miss me?" he asked breathing down her neck, she swallowed hard.
"As much as I'd miss a gryphon gnawing at my leg.." she said quietly but hatefully.
"Ah don't be like that..someone so beautiful shouldn't be so angry.." he said putting a hand against her cheek. She moved away but he brought her back.
"Let go of me!" she screamed, he tightened his grip on her waist and hands.
"Never.."
"What have you done with Draco?!" she asked still struggling to get out of his arms.
"He's been taken care of..now hush Ginny can't you hear it?" he said his eyes looking up towards the stars. Ginny looked up but the stars vanished and was replaced by a brownish-gold white, like aged parchment. She listened as a younger girl read aloud, seeing the giant quill scroll across the paper.
"Dear Tom
I have no idea what's wrong with me! I found red paint all over the front of my robes today, and somebody has petrified the caretakers cat, Mrs Norris. There was a message written on the wall beside her "The Chamber of Secrets has been opened..Enemies of the heir beware!" but that's not the weirdest part Tom, it was written in red paint. I think there's something wrong, I'm going to go to Dumbledore tonight." The girl stopped, she sounded like she was crying, Ginny's eyes widened, she knew that voice..it was hers when she was eleven..That was her!
A smooth voice answered, Ginny felt warmth rush over her, no matter how hard she had tried she couldn't make that voice leave her alone, it was a charmed voice of Tom Riddle, the one he had used to make her come to him in the first place. Ginny fell to her knees, Tom let her fall.
"Don't do that Ginny my love, its just a coincidence..you probably leaned against something Hagrid had painted..don't worry just talk to me and it will all be alright.."
"I'm giving this diary to Dumbledore to, Tom I have to! Dad's always said.."
"No! Ginny I love you I don't want to not be able to see you writing to me...don't you love me as well?"
The dream Ginny cried, she began to sob hard, tears splattering onto her silver dress. She never had told anyone the things he had said to her, the way his words intoxicated her at that age. She had never told the real story to anyone, it was to painful. Tom had told her he was a spirit, but he could come back if she would help him. The reason he had said he wanted to be alive again, was because he loved her. Ginny didn't believe it at first, but his words grew sweater and more comforting each time she wrote to him, she didn't want to believe it but it seemed somewhere someone loved her.
"N-N-no Tom I don't love you..I don't know you" she heard the girls stammer, the hint of fear making Ginny's heart ache.
"But you do know me Ginny..and I know you..better then anyone else, better then your brothers, your friends, better then even yourself..."
"MAKE IT STOP!!" Ginny screamed covering her hands with her ears. She heard the Tom behind her start to laugh. Then he was gone.
Ginny shuddered remembering the dream, she went to the bathroom and washed he face and arms and chest, the sweaty feeling was terrible. She looked at her reflection in the mirror, being careful not to knock over any of the other girls belongings on the sink she saw there were dark circles under her eyes. Never in her life had Ginny had a nightmare like that..but she wished again that she'd never even heard the word Tom Riddle in her lifetime.

But as she looked to Missy for help, she found her friend already snoozing on top of her books. Luckily Ginny caught the last bit of what Professor Binns had said.
"Now once you've chosen what myth out of the ones I've read aloud please come up here and write down on the parchment which one your writing on."
