Drip Drip Drip
Her blood slowly dripped from her wrists, it turned the floor red. Ginny looked up and immediately regretted it as the color drained from her face. She glanced down at the puddle of blood, there was way to much there, she wasn't going to live to see the next sunrise.
The door opened once more and Lucius Malfoy walked in again.
"How's my little prize?" he asked grabbing her chin and forcing her to look at him.
"Gets off of ME!" she yelled at him.
"Oh, someone's a little cranky today." He sneered, and then slapped her hard across her face.
Her head snapped to the right, she drooped her head. Tears started to roll down her cheeks.
"Maybe you'll think about talking to me like that again, wont you?"
She nodded. "Yes."
"Yes?"
"Yes, sir." She mumbled.
"That's better!" He unlocked her chains and she fell the remaining few feet to the floor and collapsed there. Breathing hard, she looked up at him, got all dizzy and fainted right there at his feet.
A snowy owl flew down with the rest of the other mail carriers one morning at breakfast, Harry patiently waited for the owl to land in front of him, instead it landed in front of Arra.
"Hedwig?" Harry asked, looking closer he saw that it was not his owl, so he looked up for her, she was not there. Sirius must not have sent him anything.
Arra took the letter from the owl and read it to herself.
Great Job! It is useful having you at Hogwarts. We made it this far, let's
Not forget the plan. This must be carried out!
She folded up the letter and stuffed it into her robe. "Excuse me." She said leaving the table and going to a private corner to write back.
She flipped over the piece of parchment and wrote:
Everything is going underway. No need to worry, don't stress your self out to much, I got Harry eating out of the palm of my hand...Tonight at dinner, I will give him the love potion!
She walked back over to the Gryffindor table and gave the note to the owl and it flew off.
"So, what class do we have first?" She asked.
"Potions." Said Hermione looking at their schedule. Harry moaned.
"Great! I love potions!"
"You won't after this class." Said Harry.
They headed down the dungeon stairs and came to a halt in front of the door.
"Harry?" Arra asked, grabbing Harry's arm. "Can I speak to you for a moment?" she asked. She led him to a corner of the dungeon. "Look, I'm sorry about yelling at you. I didn't mean it. I was just nervous with being new and wanting to fit in and everything. Can you forgive me?"
She looked deeply into his eyes and he couldn't say no.
"Yeah, I forgive you." He replied. She smiled and gave him a big hug. Just then the dungeon door open and Snape let them file in.
"Hello Professor!" she said smiling at him.
"Arra?" he asked.
"Yes."
"I need to speak to you outside." He held open the door for her and she stepped back outside. "Did you get your letter yet?"
"Yes, I got it at breakfast."
"Good. Now go in and take a seat." They walked through the door and Snape started his lesson.
An hour and a half later they were free of the smoky dungeons.
"That was exciting!" exclaimed Arra.
"Sure!" said Harry sarcastically.
The rest of the day went by slowly. And finally it was dinner time...
