Last time: A cloaked figure watched Ron while he was in the forest, staying silent the whole time. As Ron cried and bellowed in anger, the figure grinned evilly. Ron left the forest and the figure looked on at him in happiness.

"I have found him. He has great anger and power. His sorrow will fuel his need. He is mine. Kizu daro ni naru kyoryoku*."

The figure walked off back into the forest.

"Next time I see you, you are mine" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Chapter 3: The Change

Morning came and Ron was rudely awoken to the sunlight as it drifted over his eyes. Ron groaned and got out of bed. He made his way to the bathroom and looked at himself in the mirror. He looked horrible. His eyes were red from crying and his face matched his hair. He looked like a giant tomato.

"Great just great" Ron mumbled under his breath.

"What's up mate?" said Harry as he ran in the bathroom, smacked Ron on the back and did a little jig in the middle of the room. Then he looked at Ron staring grimly at him.

"Ron....?" Harry said...

"What I er uh.. huh?" was Ron's reply.

Harry suddenly got serious. "what's wrong Ron? Sad that you didn't get your way? I knew little Ronnikins would love to..."Harry mocked...

"Shut up Harry! You don't understand. You're just soooooo...."Ron stopped and turned around before Harry could see the silent tears dripping down his face.

"Whoa Ron... What happened? It's only the first day back at school. What's wrong? "

"It's n-not-thing-g... I-I j-just wanna ....go away Harry." Ron mumbled

"Ron. What's wrong. I am your friend. I will help you. Tell me what's going on."

"Just leave me alone." Ron said

"Jeese, Ron! Just tell me so I can help you. It can't be that bad. Like don't act like a little cry-baby!" Harry said finally agitated over how Ron was acting.

Suddenly Ron looked up at Harry and Harry realized Ron was actually crying. Harry immediately felt bad for what he said to Ron. Ron looked at him with a death look and walked out of the bathroom.

"Harry? Don't follow me and LEAVE ME ALONE!!!!" Ron screamed.

Harry just stood there dumbfounded

**************************

Ron made his way out of the dorm and into the common room. He saw many people there. Too much commotion. His sister Ginny came up to him

"Ron! Have you seen Hermione? I wanted to talk to her about an assignment I have. I just can't seem to get the hang of it."

"No. I'm leaving. Leave me alone." Ron said in a monotone voice.

"Uh okay. "said Ginny a little confused.

Ron continued on and walked out of the common room. So Hermione wasn't in her dorm. Not like he cared. It was early. Breakfast didn't start for another half an hour. Ron found an empty corridor and sat. he was tired and the events of last night were fresh in his mind. Ron's life was ruined. He had nothing left. Hermione was what kept him going. He might as well be dead. It would be easier for everyone.

Suddenly Ron heard a noise coming from an empty classroom. Since he was a prefect, it was his obligation to check it out. As Ron got closer, he heard that there were moans and groans but not of the bad kind. Ron hoped he wouldn't be walking in on someone having sex. That would just be horrible for him... He continued along. Then he heard, "Yes Draco....I love you...You are soooo good." Ron laughed. So Draco Malfoy had a new girlfriend. What is this? Like his 100th? Something to make fun of him about. This made Ron's day.

Ron walked briskly to the classroom and looked in. There of course was Draco Malfoy snogging some girl. She had brown bushy hair and there were books scattered around. (AN/can you just imagine it? Hehe books everywhere okay I'll shut up) Ron was going to love this. Being the ignorant person he was, he failed to notice the Gryffindor robes lying on the floor and the prefect badge neatly pinned on it. (AN/they have clothes underneath the robes)

"Well well well. If it isn't Draco Malfoy and girlfriend number 101. "

The couple jumped up and scavenged for their robes. They looked up and Ron and Hermione gasped.

"Ron?"

"Hermione?"

They stood there looking at each other like they had been stupefied.

"Sorry to interrupt this lovely reunion Weasel, but I think HERMIONE and I were busy." Draco drawled

"I, I, I Hermione? I understand If u were going out with someone but..... Malfoy?" Ron said on the break of tears again.

"Ron... you weren't supposed to find out like this. I ... I'm sorry Ron but.... He's different. He's changed. He really is a caring person one on one. "

"You pick him over me...." Ron said as tears streamed down his face.

"Ron..."

"Oh I get it, Weasel wanted to go out with you but I am going out with you. Oh this is priceless..." Draco drawled.

"Draco stop.... Ron I'm sorry just. Er don't' tell anyone. "

"Right . don't tell anyone. Hermione? I hope you have fun with your love life and I hope you love him from the bottom of your heart, because mine has just been ripped out."

With that Ron took off in a run from the classroom. Hermione could be heard yelling from behind.

"Ron! Ron"

"Ignore him love, he's not important."

After that there was no more yelling and Ron continued running. Unconsciously he ended up in the forbidden forest again. Sitting down against a tree he cried. He cried for himself and he cried for Hermione. He cried for those who never know love and for those who it is taken away from. He just cried.

Again he wished as if he were dead. It would be easier and everyone would have a better life and so would he. But you shouldn't always wish for something if you don't really want it to happen.

As he continued crying, a cloaked figure crept closer to him. No sounds were heard as the figure neared Ron. The figure stayed close watching him for what seemed like twenty minutes. Suddenly, it bent down and made Ron look up to him.

Ron widened his eyes in fright.

"No need to be afraid my childe. You shall soon be mine. Just answer me this... Do you wish to rid yourself of all these troubles and gain power beyond your wildest dreams?" It was a soft flowing voice. The woman who said it seemed to be unearthly.

Ron looked at her for a moment before nodding yes. The woman grinned and pulled back her hood revealing flowing red hair and pale white skin. She had brilliant silver eyes and as Ron looked lower... gleaming white fangs. Suddenly Ron wasn't sure of what he was doing. Before he could do anything, the woman sank her fangs into Ron's neck. Ron howled in pain for a second before it turned into pure bliss. The feeling was indescribable.

As the woman drank Ron's blood she suddenly stopped.

"Do you wish to live?" she simply asked.

"Y-y-e-e-s-s" Ron weakly mumbled.

"Good" she grinned. Then she took her fangs and cut herself on the wrist. She put her wrist up to Ron's mouth and commanded, "Drink"

Ron obeyed taking as much as he needed. After, she pulled her wrist away and mumbled "sleep my childe, I will be back for you later, but for now rest. I shall take you back so you will be shielded from sunlight."

The vampire took Ron back into the castle. As she entered the doors, she met with a sorrowful Albus Dumbledore. He looked on at her clearly disappointed with sadness in her eyes. She smirked at him then said, "Take care of him. I will be back tomorrow night. He wont wake until nightfall. Until then, be ready" She then made her way to Gryffindor tower and lay Ron on his bed. With a wave of her hand, his bed curtains were made so they would not open until nightfall and the sun would not be able to enter.

"Sleep my childe, I will return"
