The Greatest Battle Chapter 9
"I'm sorry did you just say that me and Ginny are in the same room?" Harry was in a mix of emotions, ranging from fear to excitement and definitely confusion.
"Yes master. Young Mistress Weasley will be in the room right next to yours. Unless that is a problem." Euan responded. (Btw, the name is pronounced Ian, its just a weird spelling of it, see if you can find it. Its in book 5)
"No it isn't thank you Euan." Ginny responded and she caught Harry's eye.
"Good night then." And with that he was gone in a snap.
When Harry entered the room he relaxed for a second before realization set in. He was going to be in a room, alone, with Ginny. Well not exactly in the same room but a doorway was the only thing that separated them. Ginny walked in and looked around for a moment then smiled at him and walked towards his room. He didn't notice it at the time but she had left him a note on his bedside table. As Harry began to explore his room he found that it was really quite cool. The closet was enchanted to have whatever you wanted in it, and there was also a very large Master bathroom in one of the adjacent doors. Finally Harry decided to go to sleep. As he went to set his glasses on the small table beside his bed he noticed the note. He picked it up and carefully unfolded it as though it were made of the most precious material in the world. It read,
Harry,
Meet me in the Dining Hall at 12:30 tonight. Love, Ginny
This was exactly the kind of thing that Ginny did. He didn't particularly want to go but he had to. She was Ginny, and Ginny always found a way to get him whether he wanted to or not.
He feigned sleep for a few hours until he glanced at his watch and as though he had gone forward in time he saw it was 12:20. He sat up in bed and put on a shirt and some sweatpants. He silently rose and crept from his room shutting the door with only a small click. He nearly hit the ceiling when he heard a voice behind him "Is there something you require master? I would be happy to assist you with anything I can."
"Euan, you startled me." Harry said breathlessly. His face had gone quite cold, and his heart was pounding through his chest
"I'm sorry master, it is my duty to stand guard outside your room."
"It's fine. Did Ginny happen to leave the room?"
"Yes, sir. She left around 15 minutes ago just after you dozed off."
"I don't remember falling asleep." Harry said
"That's why I woke you up. I expect you have a rendezvous with a certain young lady to be off to then sir?"
"Yea, I have to go" He glanced at his watch 12:28 damn, he had to run. When he arrived at the Dining Hall he was out of breath and saw that the door was open slightly. When he walked in he saw that the table was set for two people. Harry took a second to let his eyes adjust to the darkness. The only light source in the room was the two candles on the middle of the small table. The only problem with the setup was that he didn't see Ginny. "Gin, you here?" His question was answered only by silence. He asked again and again he was answered by silence. Just as he was getting ready to leave he heard a giggle from the shadows and he turned around to see his girlfriend sitting at the table with a glass and a small plate.
"Well, sit down. Or are you going to leave me sitting here by myself?" She grinned at him as he walked over and sat in the chair across from her. Then, as if on cue, a covered silver platter appeared and the glasses filled with milk. Ginny lifted off the cover to reveal a platter full of chocolate chip cookies. Harry looked at her curiously, "What, I like milk and cookies and I-" she was cut off by the sound of Ron's voice.
"Ginny what are you doing here?" He asked. From the looks of it he was quite surprised.
"I couldn't sleep so I got up and came in here to get some milk and cookies. Not a crime is it?"
Ron raised his eyebrow at her, "So why is Harry here? Decided to ask him to join you?" His tone was starting to get a bit too accusatory for Harry's liking. "I wonder if mum knows?"
"I wouldn't recommend you telling her unless you want your little secrets about what you and Hermione were doing all summer to slip out on accident." Ginny replied. At this Ron looked absolutely horrified and said to her in a calm voice,
"O.K. if you keep your mouth shut I'll keep mine shut."
"How about if you keep yours shut I'll keep mine shut?" Ginny looked like she was trying to hide her enjoyment at doing this. "Now why don't you go to bed, Ronniekins." As soon as she said this Ron turned beet red and rushed out of the room causing Harry to burst out in a fit of quiet laughter.
"That was great Gin. Did you see him?" Harry said in-between laughs.
"Yea," Ginny was now trying to fight back her laughter but was fighting a losing battle, "I was good wasn't I. Anyway let's eat I'm hungry!" She picked up a cookie and dunked it into the glass of cold milk in front of her. Before long the cookies were gone and the milk glasses empty.
"C'mon Gin, let's go to bed." Just as Harry started to walk out he heard running behind him. Seconds later he felt a small weight land on his back and two arms and legs wrap around him. He wrapped his arms around her legs and put her up higher on his back. "Fine, I'll give you a piggyback ride, jeez." All he received for his comment was a playful slap on the head.
"Go horsy." Ginny burst out into giggles and rested her chin on his head as he began to walk back to the room. When they finally got there she let go of his back and slid off of his lean form easily. "Thanks for the ride. We'll have to do this again sometime." And before he could say anything she gave him a quick peck on the lips and ran into her room, shutting the door behind her.
That night they came back. It was the first time in months he had experienced them but tonight they came back even worse than before. He was at Godric's Hollow. Only he could tell that nothing he could do would help him intervene. Suddenly he heard a scream from down the hall. He didn't register what was happening at first until he recognized who the voice was. It was Ginny. Then he heard another mans voice. It sounded like. Himself? He took off towards the hall and ran into the room he heard the scream come from.
"Lily, take A.J. and run!" This was definitely his voice. Except when he saw himself he noticed that he was taller. Then he saw the figure in front of himself.
"You cannot defeat me, Potter. You will die by my hand!" The voice belonged to Voldemort. James just stared at him determinedly. James raised his wand but Voldemort was quicker and before he knew what was happening he saw his father laying on the ground twitching in pain. He would not scream though. "Did you like that Potter? How about another dose of pain for old time's sake James? Crucio" He saw his father arch up in pain and his face screw up out of determination not to cry out. Small cuts were opening on his arms and face. Voldemort held the curse on longer this time but James still would not cry out. When he finally lifted the curse James fell to the ground panting and shaking all over in pain. Suddenly out of nowhere he turned out and fired the cruciatus curse at Voldemort. When the curse hit the wizard he shrieked in pain and stumbled backwards. James kept the curse on him as long as he could. The whole time saying, "You shouldn't have come here Tom. I won't die!" Finally the curse lifted and Voldemort straightened. Before James could utter another word Voldemort screamed "Avada Kedavera" and with a flash of green light James Potter was dead. Without a second glance Tom Riddle walked through the house knocking over all the doors until he found a young lady crouching with her son in her arms crying. She heard the man coming from down the hall and tried to hide her son. She was not fast enough though and as she was covering her young son the door to their sanctuary was demolished and Voldemort walked in. All Harry could do was watch in horror as his mother was tortured and killed. Just as Harry watched Voldemort turn his wand on himself as a toddler he was roused back into reality quite suddenly.
"Harry, please wake up!" Ginny was nearly in tears clutching his hand by his bed. Euan was wiping his forehead with a cold cloth. Ginny wanted him to wake Harry up but the elf knew better. He knew if he woke Harry up suddenly there would be a good chance someone could be injured. As he patted his masters head the rag he was using was thrown across the as Harry sat bolt upright with a scream.
A/N: I figured this would be a good time to introduce a bit of a bump in Harry's perfect life so far. Have fun with it and Review!!!!!!!!
