After the sorting ceremony, she followed the hall to her dorm. The usual laughter of the Gryffindor's, remarks of the Slytherins , whispering of the Hufflepuff's, and the dropping of books from the Ravenclaw's. Ginny shot a short-but-sweet smile at Luna, and continued on her way.
A gloomy sort of expression filled her face as she entered the common room.
"Hey Gin, is everything alright? You were kind of quiet at dinner." She wanted to answer her brother so badly with a ' How could you notice, wasn't Hermione distracting you?'
"Yes, I'm fine. I going upstairs to take a shower ... or something." Leaving them all with blank expressions.
Ginny made her way to the top of the stairs, and turned into her room. She saw her trunk, in front of her bed, which was the one at the very end. She smiled widely, as now she had more choice of skin ... to release the pain that was. Her robes were Ron's old ones, as he had Georges now. They were a little bit big. But that's good, very good.
Ginny opened her trunk to see the fake silk cloth around the most wonderful thing she had ever encountered in her life. Her stuff a bit ruffled, but she didn't mind.
She took it in the shower. She washed herself and her hair and whatnot. She sat down and let the water fall onto her. She took the blade to her arm, and let it slide. She couldn't count how many times she did it. It wasn't a big deal, until the water stated to hit them, and she realized where they were. The water washed the blood off her skin and into the drain. A red river flowed from her body, to the now blood filled drain. She felt so happy, and again felt that power. This was becoming a sort of ritual for her.
Ginny walked downstairs, to see the annual 5th year and up 'welcome back party'. They started this tradition about 2 years ago. And all the 5th, 6th, and 7th year Gryffindor's where here. Beers filling their hands that people had smuggled in, charmed bears, a few other things floating around. Music played in the air, it was a charm of course. There was a silencing spell on the portrait, and ones on the two doors for those who were sleeping and didn't know about the party.
Ginny looked at the people around her, and saw one boy in a hood. He was putting bears into his robe, and then he started to leave. Ginny ran quickly and stealth like up the boys dorm stairs. She grabbed Harry's invisibility cloak, and went back downstairs to follow the hooded man. She was in for some adventure tonight'.Wow that was easy, who knew?'
She slipped out the portrait just in time to see the man head down the corridor and turn. She followed him quickly. It was dark and a little hard to see things. She went to turn the corner and...'ouch!' She ran into one of the statues, ripping her robes on the arm she had most of the cuts on. The man put his hood down and turned around, obviously hearing some noise. He made his way father down and she followed him. She could see he had blonde hair, and he was headed for a portrait with some symbol...and is that a snake? 'Uh oh, its the Slytherin common room.' She thought to herself. She walked further toward it, and was finally in front of it, but where did the ... "AHH!.. mrffa weffaarahrmm " Someone had grabbed her and covered her mouth! "Gert orff me!"
It's been a long time I know. I'll have a chapter up after I get out of school. I hope you like it so far, please review! Thanks.
