CHAPTER 6 - GINNY

The Death Eaters gathered at the Old Riddle House. Harry decided to bury his Father beside his Grandfather. Harry stared at the tombstone.

TOM MARVOLO RIDDLE

'I'll avenge you Father. I swear I will,' Harry whispered. He bent down and placed his father's old lightsaber near the tombstone. With that, he left.

The Order… at an uproar.

'Albus… is it true? Moody is dead?' Molly whispered, for fear of the answer.

'Yes. It is true,' Dumbledore sighed.

'Headmaster, how did Potter master the skill so quickly?' McGonagall asked, 'It is almost impossible!'

'Listen!' Dumbledore managed to calm everyone down before speaking, 'I do believe that Voldermort trained him and it may be because of the hatred in young Harry that made him master the skill so quickly. As far as I'm concerned, Harry is the new Sith Lord and he may be even more powerful than Tom.'

'You mean… Voldermort is dead?' Arthur said.

'Yes, but Harry will take over and I do believe he is a greater threat than his Father,' whispers started but Dumbledore rushed to speak again, 'However, we are Jedis. We will bring them down once and for all.'

'Albus… what about Ginny and the rest? I can't sleep a night without thinking about them…' Molly cried. Arthur quickly hugged his wife.

'Molly, I hope I'm correct if I assume that Harry will not harm the ones he love,' Dumbledore reassured her.

'My Lord… you should retire. It is late…' Sev suggested. Harry had become the new Sith Lord, following his father's death.

'No… It's ok… I'll be fine. You three should go and get some rest. I wanna finish this first.'

The trio bowed and left.

Harry went back to his plans. He intended to finish his father's plans for attacking together with him but now, his father was dead.

Harry sat on the couch, rubbing his eyes. It has been a long day for him. He felt so confused, so alone. Even though he still had the trio death eaters, he had lost his father, the only person who had cared for him for the past 4 months.

Screams.

He thought it was probably some death eater taking it out on the prisoners.

The screams were louder and louder.

'Oh for God's sake, not now!' He said to himself. He cast a simple silencing charm and went to sleep.

'Ah!' Ginny screamed.

The whip found her. As though it was alive, it caused her a large slash across he legs.

Her body were full of bruises, cuts and slashes.

'Stop… please…. I can't take it…' Ginny pleaded.

Her clothes were all torn and she was all alone in a cell, away from Hermione, Ron and the rest.

Harry tried to sleep but could not. The charm worked but he sensed something… an odd feeling about the scream.

His worse fears were realized.

He grabbed his saber and headed off to the dungeons.

There… he saw Ginny…It was a painful sight. He saw 3 death eaters, one of them had a whip. The death eater threw back his whip, ready to strike.

He grabbed the whip and tugged it away from the death eater.

The death eater turned around and saw Harry, his red eyes. He extended his arm and activated his saber.

'Who the hell are you!' One of them asked, clearly drunk.

Harry was fuming mad. He raised his saber and killed him.

'The other two finally came to their senses and realized that he was the Sith Lord, they begged for mercy.

'My Lord… please… we didn't know…'

Too late… Harry killed both of them.

Luc woke up, sensing danger in the dungeons. He quickly got up and grabbed his saber. He saw Sev and Bell, each coming out of their rooms with their sabers.

'Something's wrong in the dungeons.' Sev and Luc agreed.

Harry went to Ginny, pocketing his saber. Ginny was half unconscious, 'Harry?' With that, she fainted.

Harry lifted her gently and carried her.

Luc, Sev and Bell saw someone coming out from the dungeons. They ignited their sabers immediately.

'Who's there!' Sev called out.

Harry came out.

'Master… forgive us… we didn't know…' They quickly knelt down.

'Get a healer to my room now…'

'Yes master and may I ask,' Sev pointed to Ginny.

'I'll explain later,' Harry said.

Harry carried Ginny to his room and gently lay her on the bed.

'Where...' Ginny tried to speak but she felt really tired.

'Shh… Ginny… Don't speak…' Harry reassured her.

Ginny focused her eyes and saw that it was Harry.

'Harry…please don't… hurt me…' Ginny begged, trying to move away from Harry.

Harry moved closer to her, 'I'm not gonna hurt you Gin… I have a healer here to tend to you… Trust me Gin…'

'No… Please… Harry… leave me alone…'

'Ginny… listen to me… trust me… trust your heart… I'll never hurt you…' Harry said.

Ginny listened to her heart. She did trust Harry but……

'I trust you Harry……' She collapsed into his arms.

'Ginny… Wake up…' He turned to the healer, 'Tend to her quick!'

The healer rushed to her wounds, examining it. Harry stood by her side, holding her hand. Just then, Sev placed a hand on his shoulder.

'Master… is Miss Weasley going to be alright?'

'I… I don't know… Damm those death eaters! I killed them… They hurt her… How could they…'Harry cried, 'And now……' Luc pulled Harry into a fatherly hug.

'Luc… can I ask you three a favor?'

'Yes Harry?'

'If I die…' Harry began but Bell cut him off

'No! You're gonna be with us! We're one family Harry…'

'Bell… If I don't make it… protect Ginny okie?'

Bell nodded.

'My lord…' the healer bowed.

'How is she?'

'I've tend to her wounds, my Lord… However, I strongly suggest that she acquire as much rest as possible…' the healer hesitated.

'Yes?' Harry pushed on.

'Well… it would be best if she rested in a… well… more suitable environment, My Lord.'

'Yes… I agree. She will be staying with me. You may leave.'

The healer exited the room.

'Bell… I want this room to be guarded, preferably by our own men. And no one is allowed to enter without my permission except for me and you three.'

Yes My lord…'

'I don't want to see Ginny get hurt again,' Harry turned to Ginny.

'It's not your fault Harry… Don't blame yourselves.'

'We should leave Bell…' Luc suggested.

'Yes… we ought to…' Sev agreed.

'We'll be next door if you need anything Harry,' Bell said before bowing and exiting.

Harry went to Ginny. She looks so peaceful when she sleep, Harry thought. He gave her a kiss on the cheek before getting some sleep on the couch.

Ginny tossed and turned. She saw Harry… He was killing everyone… all her friends… the Order… Dumbledore… It was a massacre… His manic laughter filled the air… She wanted to scream…and move away from this nightmare… she couldn't move… Harry was on top of her… She felt pain… She screamed…….

Harry woke up with a shock. He rushed to Ginny, trying to wake her up.

'Ginny… wake up!' He shook her.

Her eyes fluttered open. Harry was holding her… Her dream… It was just a nightmare… Was it?

Ginny began to move away… desperately trying to avoid Harry. Harry held her tight. He wanted her to trust him.

'Harry… please… let me go… don't hurt me… please…' Ginny begged.

'Ginny… I swear I'll never hurt you… listen to your heart… like you did just now...' Harry pleaded with Ginny.

'No… I can't… Harry… let me go… please… don't hurt me… '

Harry realized that Ginny traumatized by the torture.

'Ginny… listen to me… I'm Harry… your Harry… Nothing else… please trust me…'

Ginny didn't stop begging… she was so afraid… she wanted to feel safe… She knew Harry was her comfort zone but… Dumbledore…

Harry knew that Dumbledore had convinced her that he was dark.

'Ginny… listen to yourself… forget about everything else… Forget Dumbledore... forget Ron…Hermione… It's just us… You and me… Remember…you and me… Harry and Ginny…' Harry swallowed as he looked at Ginny.

Ginny stopped struggling and cried. Harry hugged her… tight… he did not want to lose her.

'I'll never hurt you Ginny… I swear…' Harry whispered to her ears.

Ginny threw her arms around his neck. She felt the same warmth again in his arms.

'Trust me Gin… I love you…' Harry whispered. Soon, she fell asleep again for she knew she was safe in his arms.

Harry slept beside her. His arms were around her, making her feel safe.
