Why Did She Have to Die? Ginny's P.o.V.
It had been two thirty in the morning when McGonagall woke up Hermione and me. She told us that we had to hurry and get down to Dumbledore's office. Mione looked at me, wondering what was going on. I shrugged, wondering why Tailii hadn't been woken up. I got my school robe abd threw it over my pajamas, and looked towards Tai's bed. I realized then why Tailii hadn't been woken up. Her bed was empty.
McGonagall led the pair of us down to the common room, and then went to get Ron. I thought that Derrek would be coming to, but when they came down, it ws only my older brother. The four of us walked down the long hallways of the school towards Dumbledore's. I was worried. If Tailii wasn't in bed, where was she? Why were we being led to see Dumbledore. Why weren't we getting Harry and Draco? If this is about Tailii, why wasn't Derrek coming?
"Sugar Quill"
I snapped out of it when my Professor said the password. The Gargoyle jumped aside and the door opened. We walked up the long, winding staircase up to the office. McGonagall opened the door, and I discovered why we hadn't gotten Derrek, Harry, or Draco. They were already there. Derrek was sobbing, and a stone-faced Harry was holding a shaken Draco. Draco was holding what seemed like a sleeping Tailii. I was temporarily relived. Maybe she just sleepwalked. ..But then why was Derrek crying?
"Ah, Minerva. You brought them. Well done, being able to rouse them this early in the morning."
I looked up. Dumbledore had come in. His eyes weren't sparkling, and his expression was somber. All my worry came right back to me.
"Now, Mr. Weasley, Miss Granger, and Miss Weasley, I am sure the three of you are wondering why you have been woken up and rushed down here..." The headmaster was interrupted by Draco's shout.
"Derrek killed Tailii!! He was trying kill me, But Tailii got in the way!!!!!" Dray started shaking again, holding the limp body of my 'Shadow.' I went over, leaving my shocked brother and his girlfriend standing where they were.
"Well, Draco, I was going to break the news a bit more gently..But children, the words he has spoken are true. Derrek has been expelled, and depending on whether their parents press charges, or any of you press charges.."
Draco looked up. "No. Don't bother sending him to Azkaban. No one..except the Voldemort and his followers, and true murderers deserve to be put there. Let him live in my home until I get there. Then we'll decide what to do with him."
My eyes widened, tears filling them. My shadow..my best friend, was gone, and they weren't goig to send her killer away. I stared at Derrek, the anger boiling higher then I could help. I went over to him and slapped him as hard as I could across the face. "You FUCKING Bastard!!!!"
I only saw the shocked look on his face for a second, before I ran from the room. I couldn't take it anymore..They were letting him leave the school, but not to Azkaban? Was Dray on crack? I tore through the school, and I somehow ended up in the south tower. The ghosts usually stayed there, but for now it was empty. I sat down and just cried. My mini-me...That's what Harry had started calling her...was gone...
Eventually Dray came in. He usually stayed away from me, but there was a strange look in his eyes. He sat down next to me and gave me a hug. I instantly buried my face in his shoulder and cried until I couldn't anymore.
"Gin.." He whispered.
"Y-yeah D-draco..?" I responded, looking up into his warm grey eyes.
He sighed, closed his eyes, and whispered, "Never go the route I did. I know Tai was your best friend..and your Mini-you..but don't go down the same route that I did. It doesn't do you any good." He opened his eyes. "Promise me, Ginny. Please."
I nodded, wiping the remaining tears from my eyes. "I promise, Draco."
He smiled, sensing that I wanted to be left alone for a bit. He got up after giving me a hug and headed towards the door. When he reached the wooden frame, he turned around and answered the question that I couldn't voice.
"And I'm not on crack. He apologized. He didn't mean it. That is why I'm letting him live." and with that..he was gone.
I knew what he had meant by not going down the route he had. He didn't want me to even contemplate suicide. I wouldn't, either. Granted I would never be the same..but I wouldn't take my own life. Not yet, anyway.
A/n: Grah. I know, I was evil to kill Tailii. And perhaps even more evil to let Derrek live. But thats the way it's going along. So there.
I DO need help with more chapters though. Any suggestions? Comment please ^^
