(Chapter done by Mourningstar13)

I watched him approach me, calmly, and with a superior attitude that made me both wanna punch his fat ugly face ( I hate anyone who thinks their better than you, especially if they actually ARE) and want to run away in terror. He was too confident.

"Tsk, tsk Darren. Are you thinking of running away. Are you going to flee these wizards with your tail between your legs? Your a vampire!" He boomed, making me jump. Some how I hadn't expected him to be loud. Quiet and creepy was more his style.

"Why should I stay? These wizards have nothing to do with me?" I asked, pressing for information. I really didn't like how he was happy. Whatever was good for Tiny normally was not too good for me.

"Nothing to do with you?" He smiled that smile again, and my hand was itching to punch him, though somehow I didn't think Tiny would react too well to that.

"They have everything to do with you, Darren." Quiet and creepy again. I think I preferred him booming at me.

"They have everything to do with you, Steve, Crepsley, Vancha, my Little Person Harkat, and even that boy you were talking to last night, Harry Potter.

How did he know I'd been talking to Harry last night? And what did Harry have to do with it. From what I'd gathered listening to other wizards, and is over all important attitude last night, Harry had his own destiny. What was he doing getting all tangled up in mine?

"Leave Harry out of this. He's got enough to worry about without you butting in!" I shouted foolishly. Tiny let i pass.

"I have been "butting in" as you call it, for his entire life. I hand picked him, after killing the original Boy-Who-Lived, Matthew, for not following his destiny. I knew that Harry was too noble not to. My hands are deeply delved in wizard affairs." Harry wasn't original? He had no choice in the matter? That just made me angry, at least I had a choice. That smug smile came on again, and I let my anger flow and took a wack at him.

He avoided it with a delighted smile on his face. But my punch didn't meet air. I seemed to punch the red sky, and it fractured and came crumbling down around me. I could see the normal school, students milling around, sky a bright, natural blue, in the place where it had been. The students didn't seem to be able to see me.

Tiny smiled again, like he had planned it to happen that way. He probably had. Maybe that was what all the booming and smugness was for, he wanted me angry

"Find the Broken Stone, Darren. Find it, Seal it, or else the vampires will be greatly weakened. Find it by the Solar eclipse. He looked up at the fractured red sky, where you could still just barely the sun in the eclipse he must have been talking about.

"Or else."

Before I had time to ask him what he meant, I noticed that the fracturing had reached the ground. Tiny and the other students began to fracture as well. I then noticed that one of the fifth-years wasn't frozen. A Fifth-year with jet black hair and emerald eyes, who was desperately trying to shake his frozen friends awake, looking up at the breaking sky frantically.

And then I realized that I was breaking in to pieces as well, every second of it was as painful as if mg body really was breaking apart, although I think I was the only one who felt that. I saw Tiny turn to give me a jaunty wave, then he turned, stopped crumbling and disappeared. I saw Harry turn and give me an intense glare of hatred that told me he had heard everything, a glare that said I was his enemy now. And then I descended into a black abyss, with a dreadful screaming in my ears that I scarcely realized was my own.
