Hi Everyone.
Sorry that I've been taking ages to update stuff. It's writers block, and studying for exams. Also I've been doing coursework, so I haven't really had time to update. I'm trying to rectify that now. So I hope that you all enjoy the latest chapter of Avenging Angel. And a big thanks to all my reviewers.

Avenging Angel.

Dumbledore sat in his office. This news was troubling at best. He bit his lip, wondering exactly what was going on. He had received news that another of Voldemort's old followers had been killed. Whoever the murderer was, was cruel in their work, and left nothing to save. But whoever it was, wasn't using magic to kill them. They were using human weaponry. It was frightening, how some of the most evil, powerful wizards and witches had been hunted down, and killed like humans, without any magic being used.
Professor Snape walked into the room. "Have you any idea who's killing all of Voldemort's followers?" Dumbledore asked. "I believe that it might be that girl that I saw." Snape said. "I thought it might be her aswell. I don't understand what a demon hunter would want with Voldemort's old followers?" Dumbledore replied. "In all honesty Professor, none of this seems right. It may be that there will be no one to bring Voldemort back from the dead, but it seems somehow that all the deaths are connected." Snape said. Dumbledore nodded. "There is something not right here. You see most dark wizards know that someone is coming to kill them. I fear that whoever is doing this, may be more evil the Voldemort himself. They may wish to take his place as ruler of dark magic." Dumbledore said. "Someone who is more evil them Voldemort? That's not possible." Snape said. "It might be, and we have to be prepared for that possibility. Whoever it is, may try to come here for young Potter. To prove their worth, by killing him when Voldemort could not." Dumbledore said. Snape nodded. "You could be right Professor Dumbledore."

The girl walked through the corridors of Hogwarts. "I wonder if my parents practised magic here." The girl thought to herself. She didn't know what she really wanted to do, or how to approach Dumbledore. "I have to sooner or later. If I don't I'll never know the real truth." The girl bit her lip. It had always been a nervous habit that she had. When she was a child, her mother had told her that she would end up with a tooth shaped scar if she kept biting her lip. For some reason she didn't seem to have any scars, but that may have been the way that she was raised by the Avenging Angels. She walked into the girls bathroom and looked at her face in the mirror. She had her hood up, and all she could see in the mirror, of her face, was her chin, and ruby red lips. The rest was covered with the black hood. She sometimes wondered how she managed to keep up the charade of emotionless character when she murdered those evil followers of Voldemort. "I still have the one that informed on my family to kill." She thought to herself. That was when she heard a gasp behind her.

Hermione had needed to use the bathroom, so risking the displeasure of her teachers she got out of bed and tried to find it in the dark without any light. She found the girl's bathroom by the weird coincidence that the light was on underneath the door. Hermione wondered who else was walking the corridors at night. She opened the door to see the girl. Just as Ginny had described her. The picture of death. Hermione gasped, and saw the girl turn towards her. That was when Hermione started screaming.

The girl didn't have enough time to use her paralysing powers before the young student screamed. So she did the only thing she could do. Jump up onto a rafter, and try to climb away. She managed to get into a vent and found her way out of the bathroom, but as soon as she got out of the vent she was surrounded by the teachers. She glared fiercely. "I did NOT plan to be murdered by a bunch of pathetic wand wavers." The girl thought to herself.

Hermione watched the girl jump up into the rafters and heard someone run into the bathroom, and she felt hands on her shoulders. She screamed again, but she heard McGonagall's voice. She stopped screaming, and felt a little dazed. She barely heard McGonagall ask her what had happened.

"I saw that girl. The one that Ginny said looked like death." Hermione just managed to breathe out. McGonagall looked at Hermione. "Where did she go?" McGonagall asked. "She jumped up into the rafters and then she went through a vent." Hermione said. McGonagall took note that Hermione sounded like a zombie. "Stay here Miss Granger." McGonagall said. Hermione barely nodded, and McGonagall realised that Hermione had been terrified, into shock. She soon saw the other teachers outside the bathroom. "We have to find where the vent ends." McGonagall said. They soon found the place, and saw the mystery girl jump out, and land on the ground like a cat. All the teachers were ready with their wands, to defend their lives if they had to.

The teachers all had their wands pointed at her. "God I feel like they're pointing swords at me, rather then wands." The girl thought to herself. She glared when she saw Snape. "He was the one that followed e before I lost him, and came here. They must know I've been killing those wizards and witches." She thought to herself. "Why are you here?" McGonagall asked her. "I'm not here to hurt anyone if that's what you want to know?" The girl answered.
McGonagall looked at her. "Then WHY are you here?" The woman asked her again. The girl glared. "I need to speak to Professor Dumbledore. That's why I'm here. I need to ask him something that only he can answer." The girl said. "You can ask me your question." McGonagall said. "I doubt it. I only trust Dumbledore to answer it truthfully." The girl said quietly. "I'll take you to Dumbledore, but I see one wrong move, and I'll use my wand on you." McGonagall almost barked out. "Not that it would work on me anyway." The girl thought. But she didn't say anything as McGonagall led her away.
