Chpt. 5- The Discovery
Harry was slowly drawing up the stairs to the clock tower when a couple of girls in black went by. He noticed one with dark hair and brown eyes. It was Cho. She noticed Harry and gave him a smile and a wink. Harry was glad she was leaving although he did notice something odd in her eyes. Harry walked into the tower knowing he was already late. He sat on the windowsill to wait for Ginny. After waiting 5 minutes, Harry started to worry. It wasn't like Ginny to be late. Harry looked out over Hogwarts and suddenly saw a big heap right underneath the window. When the moon came over, all he saw was red and white. He wasn't sure but he didn't think. He was racing out of Hogwarts thinking it can't be, it can't be, it can't be.
He turned the corner and approached the person or whatever it was. He peered over at a girl. She had bright, long red hair. "Oh no" gasped Harry. He leaned over and gently picked up Ginny. He moved her hair out of her face to find a horrible gash on the side of her face. There were small cuts on her neck and arms and bruises everywhere. Her hands were soaked in so much blood, Harry couldn't even see the color of flesh. One leg was twisted so weird, he was sure it was broken. She was unconscious and still breathing. Harry bent forward and put his head against her breast. He could make out a slow steady heart beat. Slowly, he picked her up so as not to hurt her leg. Harry ran up the stairs to the hospital wing, his heart pounding in his chest. Thoughts ran wild as he remembered Cho and all the girls. He was almost sure it was them.
"Madam Promfrey, help!" yelled Harry as she came through some curtains. "Harry what's….oh my" gasped Madam Promfrey. "Harry, I need you to help me bring her conscious so she can drink this" "Okay" Harry replied. "Ginny, Ginny please wake up" yelled Harry as she slowly, just barely, opened eyes. "Harry" she whispered. "Drink this" said Harry, handing her a "mend-bones" drink. Ginny slowly took four gulps then dropped the drink as she drifted into unconsciousness. Harry listened to the glass shatter on the floor. "Good, now Potter, if you don't mind, I need to clean up Mrs. Weasley" said Madam Promfrey. "Sure" said Harry leaving. He couldn't believe Cho would do such a thing. Harry went to the common room to go to bed with an uneasy sleep.
