A/N: Sorry it took me so long to continue the fanfic.

Cloaked in Darkness

A young girl waited in a clearing in the Dark Forest. She was elated to be able to serve her master, and was glorying in her '"promotion" when the Dark Lord came and stood directly in front of her, his cloak as black as the forest, hiding his face.. She stood straight, then bowed low to show her respect, and straightened again. When he spoke to her a slight chill went down her spine and she cursed the fact that she felt any fear.

"Something has happened so that I had to change the plan. But I believe this will work much better". His voice was a smooth hiss.

"All of your plans are perfect master." (A/N: She's kinda a suckup isn't she?)

"You have attracted the attention of a certain Gryffindor boy. Play to his affections. Twist him around you finger, so to speak." He began to float away as she stood stupidly, wondering who the idiotic Gryffindor guy was.

"Who is he master?" The girl questioned.

The Dark Lord glared down at the girl who was fading from his vision from the distance he was putting between them and said to her coldly. "Fool of a girl! You cannot be so stupid to miss something so easy as..." But his voicetrailed as he finallyfaded into the darkness.

The girl hung her head in shame. Then her head shot back up as she realized that she knew exactly who the unlucky Gryffindor boy was. She smiled. This was going to be fun.

A/N: I promise there will be longer chapters.
