Hey guy's here's another chapter! This one contains a lot of information about the story!!
Chapter 4
That night Hermione snuck into the boys dormitories. She slipped quickly and silently by Harry's bedside, leaned over his trunk and pulled out the invisibility cloak. "Thanks Harry" she whispered to his sleeping figure as she tip toed quickly out.
The night was cold; she could feel that as she made her way through the long stoned hall ways. Most of the pictures on the wall were sleeping, some scaring Hermione as they talked in there sleep. The moon was out and shinning brightly through the corridors as Hermione went by unnoticed.
She came to the Library Oak doors and whispered "Alohomora," unlocking the giant doors. She looked around making sure no one was watching and re- locked they doors and headed into the Library quietly.
Hermione made sure the cost was clear before continuing to the restricted section. They Library was very quite and very dark, but she had been in the Library many times and knew her way around. She was also too afraid to light her wand; someone could spot that too clearly. She made her way through the isles of books until she came to a dusted sign "Restricted Section"
Hermione ignored the sign and began her search. It was close to 2 a.m. and someone was bound to come look in here, she had to hurry.
Hermione felt like she was looking forever. She hated breaking the rules and sneaking out but no teacher would let her come to the restricted section with there consent without a good reason. She read a lot of things she didn't know about, and a lot of things she didn't want to know.
No wonder they call this the restricted section, some of this stuff is totally barbaric, Hermione thought shutting The ways to think like a Dark wizard.
It was now close to Three Thirty in the morning when she picked up a very small book she would have missed it if she was not looking carefully, The ways to Change through Powerful Curses. Hermione flipped through the contents of the book. There were many strange and evil curses in the book. Ways to change people to think like an animal or totally make them think they were in another time. Hermione thought most of these ridiculous, when she finally found it…
"The Morcadum Curses," was the title. Hermione's insides scream in triumph at her find. She could have easily missed the book entirely by its size. Hermione started reading eagerly.
The Morcadum Curses are opposites. There are two curses on the Morcadum Curses which are the "Morcadum Beautamy" and the "Morcadum Bueut" The Morcadum Beaut came from The Morcadum Beautamy. The Morcadum Beautamy is just the opposite of the Beaut curse. It is supposed to leave the victim in pain and leave them with there worst nightmares running through there heads. When this stops they finally wake up to find they look as they had pictured themselves in there nightmares. They become ugly and slowly lose there power. You would find yourself afraid of them just by looking at them. There life slowly drains them as they become insane. Few people know of the curse because it was band almost as soon as it was made.
Relief spread through Hermione. She was glad that the Death eater had not finished his curse. Or Hermione would have ended up just like the book had said…
As she read on she found the curse that struck her.
As for the Morcadum Beautamy, it has quite the opposite affect. As soon as it hits the victim it will seem as though nothing has happened. But after a couple of weeks they will start to see the curses effect. It will not change there features but will make them more perfect and precise. But this may not sound as a curse yet but the effects have yet to cease.
They will become more powerful through out there whole life. They will learn twice as faster than they did before and they will be able to create there own spells with great ease. Although with all this power they could become very dangerous. The people hit with the curse connect very strongly with emotion. If they get to angry or upset they could do quite excessive damage. Even the person they love the most could be killed with in an instant.
Also with there strong emotion they could easily attract others of the opposite sex. The witch or wizard under the spell will be under strong influence to them. If they even meet a person they will remember you forever. If they kiss a person, the person will NEVER be able to love another. There power of emotion is stronger then anyone could know.
They are most attractive in the moonlight and they should try to stay clear of it. It could become dangerous to those around them.
They may look harmless and very inviting but they are VERY dangerous to those around them-
A door opening door caught Hermione attention. Hermione was so entranced with there reading she almost forgot she was in the Library. She quickly put the books around her up on the self including the one she was reading; she had enough of that book.
"I know someone was in here Head Master," Flitches raspy voice rung out, "The doors were unlocked when I locked them up myself earlier!"
"Shh! now Flich do you want them to hear us coming," McGonagall whispered furiously.
Hermione heard the foot steps growing nearer. She hurried and made sure the invisibility cloak was on, covering every inch of here when she saw them round the corner.
"Someone has been here look at the foot prints left in the dust," Flich said proudly.
McGonagall was silent as she walked down the isle getting closer and closer to Hermione, when they all heard the door of the Library slam.
Hermione jumped as her foot slid out of the cloak. Hermione quickly slid it back to but they did not notice.
"Hurry Flich to the door," McGonagall said, as they hurried in the opposite direction. Hermione gave a sigh of relief as she got up off the floor.
"You owe me Granger," A voice whispered.
She turned around and gasped, but she quickly covered her mouth. Nothing was there. She was sure she heard the voice it was familiar. How did anyone know she was there?
The person suddenly came into view as a cloak dropped to the floor and with the wave of a wand Hermione's dropped too.
"Granger chill it's just me," a handsome voice whispered to her ear, she instantly knew it was William.
Hermione gave a sigh of relief, "Do you know how bad you scared me?!" She said furiously.
William smiled "Yes, You should have seen the look on your face," He chuckled quietly, but they were interrupted by a noise.
"Come on we better get out of here," He said grabbing his cloak.
"You have an invisibility cloak too?" Hermione gasped. William rolled his eyes and nodded.
"Come on Granger,"
They both pulled there cloaks on and made there way out without being seen to the door.
"I'll make sure the coast is clear," William whispered as he opened the door with a wave of his wand. Hermione watched his head as he peeked out.
"The cost is clear," He said stepping out side with Hermione following.
They made there way through the empty corridors. Hermione finally started breathing even. She had a lot of questions for William.
When Hermione thought it was safe to whisper said asked,
"How did you know I was there? And how could you see me through my cloak?" Hermione said kind of feeling stupid because she could not see him.
She could feel him smile in his voice, "Wouldn't you like to know,"
Hermione glared at the direction of his voice.
"If you must know I was curious to see what you were up to, when you looked so exited to go to the restricted section it sparked my curiosity," He said, Hermione could tell he was blushing "And I couldn't see your cloak but I could see your foot steps in the dust," He said.
"Something I'll have to remember," Hermione said mostly to herself, "How did you know I would go tonight?"
"Something told me you would," He said his voice smiling again. They went through the corridor as they came to windows that let the moonlight show through.
She couldn't get what she read out of her mind. Was she really that dangerous? Could she really hurt someone? She couldn't think about this right now…
The moonlight Hermione remember worriedly. What if she went crazy and did something to William.
Nothing will happen Hermione the moonlight can't touch you through a cloak and William can't see you a clam voice went though her mind.
They finally reached the fat lady when William spoke.
"Did you find what you were looking for?" He asked, taking off his cloak.
Hermione took hers off as well and looked at him. He looked as if he knew something she didn't. Something about him was making her interested in him all the more.
"Yes…more than I wanted to know, but I guess I needed to know," She said quietly. Why was she telling him this, it's not like he needs to know. But somehow William was so easy to talk to.
"I'm glad…and I'm sorry I followed you," He added.
"It's alright…it was you who slammed the door wasn't it?" She asked.
William smiled mischievously, "Ya I was pretty good wasn't I" he said more as a fact then question. He said the password to the fat lady and went through the portrait. Hermione rolled her eyes but smiled none the least and followed him in. She had a feeling she was going to learn more about William…and herself.
