Hey! I hope you liked the last chapter, it took me long enough to write it. No, this one will hopefully explain things, so if you are confused don't worry, this chapter will answer a bunch of questions.

Chapter Two: The Never Ending Nightmare

"Alex, Alex, wake up!" Herimone pulled the covers off Alex's head and Alex buried her face in her crimson pillows.

"Five more minutes…" She said, but the sound was muffled because of the pillow.

Herimone put her arms under Alex and picked her up and put her on the floor.

"Herimone! Ahhh, what time is it?" Alex said standing up and glancing at her alarm clock. It was almost 10:00.

Alex moaned loudly and put on her shoes to go down to breakfast. Herimone followed her laughing loudly; hoping Alex would realize how she looked before she left the common room. But apparently she didn't, because she started walking down the stairs.

"Ummm, Alex. Alex! You might wanna change before ya leave!" Herimone said trying not to laugh.

Alex gave her a glare and quickly changed into her robes. She brushed her long blonde hair into a neat ponytail and put on a little bit of lip-gloss.

"Better?" She said mockingly.

"Much." Herimone said laughing as they went down the stairs to lunch.

The Great Hall, Breakfast

Hey, Harry? Have you heard about that new girl? I think her name's Alex or something like that. She's in our house ya know?" Ron said sitting next to Harry.

Harry took a bite of his pancakes and quickly chewed, "Yeah, I haven't seen her yet though. Maybe she'll come to breakfast. Did you hear that she escaped Lord Voldermort too? That has to be hard. She lost her whole family."

"Hmmmm, that's something you can talk about. You two sound perfect."

Harry punched Ron in the shoulder and started to eat the rest of his breakfast. Then he saw Herimone and another girl walking into the Great Hall. The girl had really light blonde hair that seemed to be pretty long. Her eyes were a deep gray color and she had an amazing figure. Harry couldn't keep his eyes off her.

"Hello Harry! I'd like you to meet Alexandria Reed. She's a new student here, you've probably heard about her." Herimone sat down and Alex sat next to her and Harry.

"Nice to meet you Alex. I'm Harry Potter." He said extending his hand. Alex shook in gently and smiled. She noticed the scar on his head, but decided not to ask about it. She wouldn't want people intruding in on her personal life.

"This is Alex's first year, so try not to scare her away. She's had a tough time lately, "Herimone stopped and glanced at Alex, she didn't seem upset at the comment, and "Anyway, she's a pure-blood Both her mother and Father attended Hogwarts."

Herimone finished her speech and filled her plate with bacon and grapes, she ate the same thing for breakfast everyday. Alex nibbled on a doughnut, but didn't seem very hungry.

"So what classes are you taking?" Harry asked, turning toward Alex.

"Dumbledore's putting me in a class that's supposed to teach me how to protect myself."

Harry nodded, "Well, say hello to your classmates. Me, Ron, and Herimone have been in that class since our 5th year. It's a lot of work, just to warn you."

"It's nothing compared to….well, my life." She said as she ran out of the Great Hall in tears."

Harry got up and followed her into the hall, but she was gone.
