Kitsune123: another chapter
Chapter 12
A Precious Diary
Lloyd decided he wouldn't go to classes so he would constantly leave for the day and come back after classes for training with Genkai.
One day Lloyd joined up with them right after they finished potions. Snape had given so much homework Yusuke considered ditching and Harry thought he would be in 5th year by the time he finished.
They were headed to the common room when someone began shouting on the floor above. "That's Filch," said Hermione. The group rushed up some stairs and listened to Filch scream.
"Even more work for me! Mopping all night, like I haven't got enough to do! No, this is the final straw, I'm going to Dumbledore."
As he went downstairs Yusuke, Jin, and Ron began laughing hysterically. "Did you see his face," asked Ron, after they stopped. "Let's see what he was complaining about," said Lloyd.
The group looked around the corner and saw a huge puddle on the floor. The water was coming from the girl's bathroom. They also heard sobs inside. "Who's in there," asked Harry? "Oh, that's Moaning Myrtle," said Hermione. "Let's see what's up with her," said Kuwabara.
The group went in to see Myrtle floating around half sobbing, and half muttering to herself. "What up, Myrtle?" asked Harry. "Who's there," she said miserably. "Come to throw something else at me," she said. Harry waded through the water to her stall and said, "Why would I do that?"
Myrtle floated down to them. "Don't ask me," Myrtle shouted. "I'm minding my own business, and someone thinks it's funny to throw books at me," she said angrily.
"But it can't hurt you can it. It'll just go through you," said Yusuke. Yusuke realized he said the wrong thing when she puffed herself up.
"Let's all throw books at Myrtle, because she can't feel it," she shrieked. "10 points if you get it through the stomach, 50 if you get it through the head." "What a fun game," she said sarcastically.
"Where is it," asked Albert. Myrtle pointed towards the sink. On the floor was a small, thin book. It was all black and quite wet. Albert went to pick it up, but Ron stopped him. "What," asked Albert? "It could be dangerous," he said. Everyone looked at him and then laughed.
"What do you take us for Ron," asked Hiei. Albert laughed while he picked up the book. "Hmmm, it's a diary," he said finally. "It belongs to T.M Riddle." "Wait, I know that name," said Ron. "I polished an award given to him 50 years ago when I was serving detention with Filch.
Albert opened it and declared it was empty. "Why would someone get rid of it then," asked Yusuke. Kurama, Inuyasha, and Touya looked at it next. "Someone has written in it," said Kurama. "I can tell it was a girl, but that's it. The water erased most of the scent," Inuyasha said. Albert nodded and looked at it more. "I'll be back. Meet me in the common room," he said before he disappeared.
With nothing left to do they bid Myrtle goodbye and left.
Albert came back late at night. He tossed the book to Harry, winked at him, yawned, and went to bed. "I hate it when he doesn't tell us anything," said Lance. "Oh well, I guess Harry must figure it out," said Ron as he went to bed.
The next morning Hermione, Kurama, and Touya took a look at the book. Albert decided to skip classes to do something and left with Lloyd.
The gang went to the library after classes. Hermione was thinking while Kurama and Inuyasha sniffed it. "I can't smell anything different," said Inuyasha.
"I wonder why Riddle got an award," said Harry. "It could've been anything. Thirty O.W.L.s, saved teachers, anything," he said. "Hang on," said Hermione. Everyone turned to her. "What," asked Ron? "Well, the chamber of secrets was opened fifty years ago, and Riddle got an award for special services to the school fifty years ago. What if he won it for catching the Heir of Slytherin? What if this diary has the whereabouts of the chamber and who opened it."
"Brilliant idea Hermione, but there's nothing written in it. Hermione glared at him and then pulled out her wand. "Aparecium," she said. Nothing happened. "There's nothing in here," said Ron. "No there's something strange about it," said Kurama. "Let's keep it," he said.
That night Harry went up to bed early. He continued to pick up the book and set it down. Finally he went to bed.
The next morning the sun was shining brightly. Everybody was calming down again since there had been no attacks since Justin and Nick. The Hufflepuffs however still avoided Harry. One day Harry heard Gilderoy telling McGonagall that the chamber was shut and that he had the perfect plan to cheer everyone up.
One day Harry, Yusuke, and Hiei were late getting to the Great Hall because of Quidditch practice. When they walked in they thought they were in the wrong place for a moment. The hall was covered in pink. The three walked over to the rest of the group.
"Whoa, what's with the pink," said Yusuke. Before anyone could answer Gilderoy stood up. He announced that throughout the day dwarfs would come handing out valentines. "Great," said Ron. "That's real great."
At the end of the day the gang had over 200 hundred cards. Most of them belonged to Kurama and Touya, who spent most of the day running from dwarfs and girls. Albert, Hiei, Lance, Tommy, Inuyasha, and Seaman had to prevent the two of them from killing the girls.
They also had to prevent Harry from killing Malfoy, because he had laughed when a dwarf pinned him down and read him a lame poem by none other than Ginny.
That night Harry went to bed early. He decided to write something in the diary. After thinking he wrote that his name was Harry Potter. The ink disappeared and was replaced by something he did not write.
"Hello, Harry Potter. My name is Tom Riddle. How did you come by my diary?"
The words began to fade, but Harry scribbled back and wrote that someone had tried to flush it down a toilet. He waited fro Tom's reply as the ink faded.
"Lucky that I recorded my memories in some more lasting way than ink. But I always knew someone might try to get rid of this diary."
"Why," wrote Harry.
This diary holds memories of terrible things that happened at Hogwarts.
Harry wrote back asking about the Chamber of Secrets.
"Of course I know about the Chamber. In my day it was opened and a muggle was killed. I caught the one who opened it, but the monster was not killed."
"Who was it," wrote Harry.
"I can show you if you like. I'll take you inside my memories."
"OK," wrote Harry. Suddenly a wind picked up. The book began flashing and Harry was sucked in.
He found himself in a round room. An old man was sitting at a desk. Suddenly the door opened and someone came in. "Ah, Riddle," said the old man. Riddle sat down and asked why he wanted him. The headmaster told Riddle he couldn't let him stay at Hogwart's with the attacks. Riddle tried to convince him, but failed. After a while he followed him to the Potion's room.
He turned a corner and went into a hallway. Harry followed him and waited there for about 30 minutes. Suddenly there was a noise. Riddle drew his wand and kicked open a door.
Hagrid was standing next to a box. "Evening Rubeus (Hagrid)," said Riddle. The miniature Hagrid turned with a scared look on his face. "What yer doin' down here, Tom?" "It's over," he said moving closer. "I don't think you meant to kill anyone, but monsters aren't good pets. They'll expel you for this," Riddle. "NOOOO," screamed Hagrid. Suddenly Harry popped out of the diary. He rushed downstairs to tell everyone what he just saw.
