Chapter 4: Many Excuses
Ginny was still thinking of malicious things to do to Malfoy when Voldemort stopped in front of a door. He tapped it with his wand and the Dark Mark appeared on the door. Voldemort pushed it open and immediately, screeming, cries for help, and other horrible sounds were to be heard.
Draco pushed her to get moving. As they walked through this dungeon like torture chamber, Ginny saw things that would forever haunt her. Muggles being subjected to the Unforgivable curses, men and women with lost limbs calling for help while writhing on the floor, groups of people locked in one cage, some of the people in the cage were dead.
As Voldemort Draco and Ginny rounded the corner, Ginny saw something no person should ever see, a dementor was leaning over a wizard and he was sucking the soul out of him. "yes" Voldemort said "I see the dementors wanted a little...kiss" Then him and Draco laughed
Voldemort grabbed Ginny's upper arm and he roughly led her through another room and down a corridor into a room.
"You will stay here" Voldemort said, gesturing around the room. "I suggest you not try to escape, or else, the dementors and death eaters will be awfully disappointed." Voldemort laughed cruely again
Ginny's eyes were burning with tears from what she had just witnessed. Her anger from Voldemort's cruelty combined with her Weasley temper caused her to have an outrage. " you foul, wretched, horrible fiend!Harry will find me and he will kill you and all of your pathetic so-called "followers" You are not a dark lord, you are just a failed wizard who thinks he will rule the world when he is defeated bye a one year old, and frightened by an old man you are not biding your time, you are just too afraid to take any action! you bloody..." ginny paused to think of a word PRAT!"
Ginny's face was red from anger, but Voldemort was smiling, he began to walk out of the door, before he closed it he said in a mock sweet voice " you can call me Tom. "
The door shut, leaving Ginny with only the dark mark for a light. She had enough light to observe her surroundings. This room was not like the others in the house. From what Ginny could tell, the bed was a four-poster with light pink hangings. Ginny pushed them aside to reveal a very comfortable bed. The bed had down quilts and comforters on it, each of them a shade of either pink or orange.
There was armchairs set around the fireplace, each covered with a film of dust.
Ginny walked around the room and saw a bookshelf. She tried to browse through it, but the dark mark did not supply enough light for her to read the titles.
" I bloody hate him " Ginny spat outloud. A rush of anger went through her and she picked up a book and threw it with all her might against the wall. Ginny was not sure if she was talking about Malfoy, or Voldemort. Frankly, she didn't care she just wanted a way to release her anger.
In Voldemorts Study
" My lord" Draco asked tentatively
" Yes Draco" Tom said. He was flipping through a rather large leather bound book, and taking notes.
" may i be bold enough to ask you why you did not kill the girl" Draco couldn't bring himself to say Ginny's name. 'Filthy mudblood lover' he thought angrily
" I have plans for her, ah yes i have plans." Voldemort said, more to himself than to Draco " Oh and Draco, you are to watch over her." Voldemort said, looking up from his book.
Draco almost coughed up the fire-whiskey he was sipping "My lord?" he said, coughing " watch over her, how?"
" exactly what i said, you will be like her guard, she will have to follow you around, you will follow her around, blah blah blah." Voldemort said
'His new appearance came with a new personality' Draco thought bitterly, but careful not to look into Voldemort's eyes, for he would be able to read Draco's thoughts if he did. Never in his time as a death eater had Voldemort ever said ' blah blah blah'
" but my lord, what of my other obligations to you, i can't watch over that mudblood lover and be a ministry spy."
" I am sure you can get Fudge to owl you information about the ministry, just work from home."
" Perhaps my aunt Bellatrix could watch her, i mean, aunt Bella is a girl, and Weasely is a girl do you see my connection my lord."
" Draco" Tom said closing his book and staring stonily at draco " I wish for you to watch her, Bellatrix will play her part in this plan soon enough. And until that time comes, I suggest you stop making excuses" Tom said as Draco opened his mouth to argue
Harry's Flat
Harry was laying limply in his bounds. He was silently crying, he had lost Ginny, it was all his fault. ' How could i have been so bloody stupid' Harry thought bitterly ' I should have known she wouldn't hide i am such an idiot' Harry was still thinking bitter thoughts about himself when a streak of white flew before him
" Hedwig" he muttered Hedwig 'whoed' in acknowledgement. " Think you can bite through these." Harry said. Hedwig nodded her head excitedly and set off to work
About a half hour later, Harry was free " Thank you Hedwig." Harry said, and gave her a pat before apparating to the Burrow.
Now when you are apparating, it is very easy when you are practiced, of course, even a very well practiced apparator is like a trainee when apparating at night, so when Harry apperated to the Burrow that night, he created a loud racket.
Mrs. Weasley and Mr. Weasley came charging down the stairs, one after the other. Mrs Weasley was yelling spells, pointing at random shadows in the kitchen.
" Mrs. Weasley its me. AGH, bloody hell, Mrs Weasley, its harry "
"Lumos" Mrs. Weasley muttered " Harry dear, oh Harry its great to see- what are you doing here. it is the middle of the night, what happened are you ok-"
" Molly dear, let him explain." Mr, Weasley said soothingly
" Well let us get out of the dark and into the living room" Mrs.Weasley said " would you like some tea, harry dear."
" No, Mrs. Weasley , i have to talk to dumbledore, do you know where he is."
" Dumble- dumbledore, why would you need to talk to dumbledore in the middle of the night harry?" mrs weasley asked
" That does not matter Molly" Albus Dumbledore said from the shadows.
" Professor, how did you-" Harry began, but dumbledore cut him off
" That does not matter harry, why did you need me."
So harry told them the whole story by the end of it, Mrs. Weasley was in tears
" Oh my poor Ginny." Mrs. Weasley sobbed " we have to tell the family"
" they have already been notifed Molly" Dumbledore said in his calming voice
" but harry, why was Ginny at your flat in the fist place." Mrs weasley asked , her red, puffed up eyes looking into harry's emerald green ones
" Oh, well Ginny was told to do an interview on my from fudge, and it ran late, and I was sleeping on the couch and i let Ginny sleep in the bed." Harry said hurridly, making up the first excuse that came to mind
" Mum!" came the yell of Fred, George and Ron " we got an owl from-" Ron began
" Helllllo Professor!" Fred and George said, cutting Ron off
" Fred, George!" snapped Mrs. Weasley " now's not the time"
" Where is Ginny Mum?" Ron asked with a very panicked air
Ron's question made Mrs. Weasley start sobbing again
" Ron didn't you read the owl" fred said with a comedic, disappointed look on his face
" our brother is a moron fred, dont hold it against him" george said
" fair point. well if you had read the owl you would have known that mr. You-Know-Who attacked harry and then decided to take our lil sis." Fred said
" Of course we knew not to worry, Gin can take care of herself, me and fred learned that the hard way eh fred" George said
" Yup we did" Fred said reminiscently
" Don't feel bad though Harry, me and fred were talking, and we decided that we would have much rather taken you that Ginny any day." George said, making both the twins burst out laughing
" Stop that you two!" Mrs. Weasley snapped again
" Aw mum" george said, walking over to Mrs. weasley
" Ginny will be fine." Fred said, standing on the other side of mrs weasley
" Wait, harry, what was ginny doin at your flat anyway?" George asked.
Harry told the same excuse as before. As Fred George Harry and Ron were walking up the stairs to talk things over Ron whispered "Nice excuse mate."
