Chapter Six: Haunted

Allie jumped into bed, trying to look like she was asleep. Hermione came into the room, smiling dreamily. She fell onto bed, thinking of the events of the day. Her eyelids slowly began to droop.
Allie quickly took out her wand and muttered the words, "Inoroun Creakous." (A/N: I know you're not supposed to do magic outside of Hogwarts, but my story has an exception.)
CREAK! CREAK!
A loud creaking noise filled the room. Hermione sat up in her bed, breathing heavily. "What was that?" she asked herself. She got out of bed, grabbed her wand, and slowly walked towards the door.
CREAK! CREAK!
The creaking noise grew louder. Hermione opened the door and cast a frighted look left and right. It was pitch black, and Hermione couldn't see anything. "Harry? Thomas?" she asked in the dark. There was no replay. She walked inside, and closed the door behind her. "Okay, calm down!" she told herself. "You were in Gryffindor! It's all in your head! Nothing will happen...at least nothing will happen just as long Harry's around..."
Allie smiled to herself. She, once again, took her wand and muttered some words, this time it was another spell. Hermione, who was really uncomfortable in her wet clothes, was still alert of everything around her. She nearly feel out of bed, when she heard a loud screeching sound. "What was that?" she said breathlessly.
"Hermione, what's going on?" Allie said, acting like she had just woken up.
"Dunno," Hermione said, looking around the dark room.
The screeching sound become a ear throbbing pain. The loud screeches became small, constant scratches. (A/N: It was like someone was writting on a blackboard with their nails.) Hermione had no idea where it was coming from. She took out her wand and cried, "Lumos!" Her wand lit up.
The scratching sound had ended. "What the hell was that?" Hermione asked.
"Oh my Gosh!" Allie cried putting her acting skills to the test. "What is that?" She pointed to the wall behind Hermione's bed.
Thick, red letters were written across the wall. It read: Get Out! Your kind is not allowed.
Hermione jumped out of bed and ran over to Allie's. She looked up at the writting. She had a nasty feeling that it was written in blood. "Come on, Allie," she said, grabbing her wrist, and dragging out the door. "We are going to get Harry."
Allie tried not to look to pleased, instead, she just nodded. My plan is working out so fine! Aunt Hermione is so totally scared, and she will so go to Mr. Potter for help, and he will so protect her! Sometime it amazes me how smart I am.
Hermione and Allie walked down the long hallway. Harry's and Thomas's room seemed so far away. "Stay close, Al."
It was a difficult task to walk in the dark. Hermione and Allie kept tripping and falling over stuff, and the walk to the boys' room seemed like a hour's worth.
CREAK! CREAK!
"What was that? Did you here it?" Hermione asked. Allie nodded, looking fearful, because this time it wasn't her doing it. Hermione turned her body and moved her lit wand around them, looking for whatever made the sound. She suddenly felt a cold sensation on her right shoulder.
She yelped, dropping her no-longer-lit wand. Hermione grabbed the cold paw and flipped it around her head and hard onto the ground. The thing gave a moan of pain, but Hermione was not done. As the thing slowly got up, Hermione kicked it right in the middle, making it fly into the door of the girls' bathroom.
The thing was moaning and groaning like never before. It finally managed to spit out some words. "H-holy shit, H-Hermione!"
"Oh my God! Harry?! Oh my God!" Hermione said thunderstruck. She moved around hall looking for her wand. "Where are you?! Are you--- "
"OW! Hermione, that was my foot!" Harry said, still winching.
"I'm so sorry! I just have to find my wand," Hermione got down on all fours, searching for her wand. "Come on...GOTCHA!" she got up and quickly muttered the spell. "Lumos!"
Harry lay, leaned against the door, winching every now and then. Hermione and Allie ran towards Harry, but something made Hermione stop. It was Harry. He wasn't wearing a shirt! Hermione stood there, her eyes widened and a small grim across her face. Holy Crap! He's so hot! Hermione thought. Allie nudged her in the ribs, smiling, but Hermione took no notice. Her staring was soon ended by Thomas, who came out of the room, looking confused.
"What happened? What happened to Mr. Potter?" he asked.
Hermione shook her head, and then ran to Harry. "Oh my Gosh, Harry," she said quickly as she kneeled beside him, bringing his head down to her lap. "I'm so sorry! I didn't mean it. Me and Allie were in the room and then I heard this creaking, and then I thought that it was all in my head, but then I saw this writing on the wall that said 'Get out! Your kind is not allowed.' so I kind of freaked out, and then we went out to find you, and you obviously heard us, and came outside--- and I didn't mean--- I thought you were some kind of a--- I only did it--- "
"Hermione, you're rambling," Harry said, "it's okay, really, it doesn't hurt--- " He tried to get up, but then fell back on Hermione's lap, winching. "It's nothing, really--- you have a nice kick."
"I'm so sorry," Hermione said, " tell me where I kicked you."
"Er...I rather not," Harry laughed.
"I rather you did!" Hermione said firmly. "Tell me!"
"You don't want to know," Harry said smiling
"Yes, I do!"
"Aunt Hermione," Thomas piped, "I think you kicked him in the b--- "
"Boy, shut up!" Allie tried not to laugh. She could have kicked herself. This was her fault. Her plan did not consist of a hurt Harry Potter, no one was supposed to get hurt.
She looked over at Harry and Hermione. Hermione was softly talking to Harry, and running her fingers through his soft hair. Allie wasn't planing for this, but it looked like her plan didn't completely fail.
"Hem hem," Thomas cleared his throat. "Sorry to break up this love fest, but--- "
SMASH!
It sounded like something broke from downstairs. "What was that?" Thomas asked.
"Lets go see," Harry slowly got up and entwined his fingers firmly into Hermione's. He took out his wand, and muttered, 'Lumos!' too. He led them down the stairs and to the long corridor, Hermione, bringing him closer, with every step they took. Harry smiled in the dark, he was enjoying this.
"Mr. Potter," Allie said, clutching Thomas in one hand and Hermione with the other. "I think it came from the living room."
"I think you're right, Allie," Harry said. "Lets go and check. Mayb--- "
He was interrupted by loud screaming, that was coming from Thomas. He was on the floor, holding his right ankle. "Something's got me!" he said.
Hermione and Harry ran to him with their wands and brought them to Thomas's feet. "What is it, Harry?" Hermione asked trying to free Thomas.
"It looks like some kind of a vine!" Harry said, also trying to free him. "I think--- "
The vine started to move across the long corridor really fast, taking Thomas. "HELP! AHHHHHH!"
"THOMAS!" Hermione and Allie cried.
Harry plunged towards Thomas trying to grab his hand. He managed to grab his arm and was trying to pull him back. "HELP ME!"
Hermione and Allie ran over and grabbed Thomas's arm and started pulling too. "This isn't working!" Allie screamed over the yells of Thomas. "The vine is too thick!"
Harry looked at the vine, it led to the door farthest right. He grabbed his wand which was lying on the floor. "Hold on! I'm going to stop it!
As Hermione and Allie struggled to keep Thomas from sliding away, Harry quickly looked around the room. He grabbed a large piece of glass that was on the floor and ran over to the door.
"Sorry, but I don't like weeds!"said Harry as he raised the glass and chopped the thick vine, until it fell to the ground.
Hermione, Allie, and Thomas fell backwards onto the furniture. Harry and Allie quickly ran to Thomas, to see if he was hurt. Hermione, who was covered in furniture, slowly tried to get up. When she finally managed to get all the furniture off, she stood up and then gave out a shrill scream.
Harry looked up. Hermione had fallen through a hole in the floor. She was hanging on to a brick that came out of the floor. "Harry!" she cried.
"Hold on, Hermione!" Harry dived onto the floor and grabbed Hermione's hand just before she fell. "Don't worry, I got you."
He tried to pull her up, but something was stopping him. "Harry! Something's got me!" Hermione cried.
Harry looked down at Hermione's feet. This time it wasn't a vine, but something that he couldn't see. "Hermione, nothing has got you!" he said.
"Yes, it has! S-something cold..." Hermione said.
Harry thought of all the things that were cold and invisible, and came up with one thing: A ghost. He didn't dare tell Hermione this, thinking that she would freak out. He suddenly felt Hermione's hand slip a little, out of his hands.
"Harry! Please, don't let me fall!" she cried.
"No, no," Harry said quietly, "I wouldn't let you fall. Never."
He grabbed Hermione's hand more firmly, and with all his might, brought her up to safety. "Thank you, Harry. Thank you." she said hugging him tightly.
Before he could say anything, a cold sensation swiped his body, and he knew exactly what it was. "Hermione, we have to get out of here, now. You were right."
Hermione's eyes widened. She grabbed Harry's, and Thomas's hand, as Harry led them out. "Stay close." he told them. Hermione couldn't get any closer to Harry, then she already was.
They were almost out of the mansion, when suddenly a the same cold sensation swept them once again, but this time, it was more intense. There must be more of them, Harry thought.
The ghosts surrounded them circling them. They couldn't see them, but they knew they were really close. It was like the ghosts were pulling the lot into them. Paper, dust, and furniture began to swosh around them. Harry grabbed Hermione and brought her head against his bare chest, and Allie and Thomas clung to each other.
All of her worries and pain suddenly vanished, as Harry brought her towards him. She held him tight, she seemed to think that if she didn't, she would him, again.
A chill went down Harry's spine, as Hermione's warm hands lay on his chest. "Don't worry...I'm here..." he whispered in her ear.
Harry wished that he could stay like this forever, but they had to get back to the car. "Hermione, we have to get out of here!" Harry yelled over the noise. She nodded. They grabbed Allie and Thomas and ran for their dear lives.
The ghosts seemed to be following them everywhere they went. The lot ran down the big hill that separated to road from the house. Harry made it to the car first. His hands went deep into his pockets searching for his keys.
Oh no! Where are the damn keys?! Harry searched his pockets over and over again. Hermione, Allie, and Thomas finally got to the car. "What is it?" Hermione asked. "What happened?"
"I don't know where my keys are!" Harry said.
"WHAT!?
"There they are!" Allie pointed to the ground where something was sparking.
"Accio Keys!" Hermione cried. The keys shot in her hands, and she handed it to Harry.
He opened the doors, and let Allie and Thomas squeeze into the back. Harry and Hermione got onto the front. Harry jammed his keys into the ignition and turned the key. Nothing happened. He did it again. Nothing.
"COME ON!" Harry cried.
"HARRY!" Hermione said. He looked at her. Her hand seemed to be moving towards the window. "Harry, I'm not doing this! They've gotten me!" Hermione was now tilting towards the door.
Harry grabbed her arm and pulled her back, put it wouldn't move. Harry took out his wand. "Hope this works," he said. "Arnumous Tonamum!" A silver light shot out of Harry's wand, and onto Hermione's arm. Her hand became a solid green color, and then back to normal. The ghost was gone. (A/N: Don't worry, I'll explain this spell in the next chapter.)
"Thanks," Hermione said massaging her shoulder.
Harry shrugged. "No sweat." He smiled. She smiled back.
Allie stared at the pair of them. Aww! How cute!
"Er...I really want to get out of here!" Thomas cried, breaking the silence.
Harry and Hermione shook their heads. Harry tried opening the car again, but it didn't work. (A/N: The car had gotten water into itself.)
"This is just great!" Harry said punching the stirring wheel. "I just bought this car!"
"Well, we can't stay in here forever," Hermione said.
"Well, we can't go back there!" Allie said.
Harry sighed."We are going to have to."
