Chapter 9- Reality of a Nightmare.
Okay, so this is the part where the water really inspired me. Hope you like this chapter as much as others. I own nothing. I am not making any money from this so I am still just a normal 13 year old who still has to use her daddy's credit card lol I don't think this would make any money anyway. Review please and enjoy!
'Somehow, Ginny had left the corridor and was out by the side of the lake. No one was around except for one boy next to the lake. Ginny recognised him a John Williams- a first year HufflePuff. She saw him, gazing at the water, as the giant squid descended into the blackness bellow.
Ginny was suddenly drawn to the boy and the water. And, without realising what she was doing, snuck up behind the young boy and grabbed the back of his chubby, neck so that he couldn't see his attacker. She led him towards the dark, murky water and pushed him-still holding his neck- deep into the centre of the lake. Held him under as he scream in the water, thrashing about and inhaling litres of water.
When she let go, she watched his body sink into the lake and drift in the water. She slowly walked away, watching as his body rose to the surface, still and pale. She tripped over a branch as she tried to make her quick exit.
Gasping as she fell and then, everything went black…'
Ginny woke up with a giant gasp to see she was lying in a clean, white room. She recognised it immediately as she had spent many of her Hogwarts years in this very room; she was in the hospital wing.
She felt a strong hand grip hers as she turned to see Dean, sitting by her side. She looked around and was surprised to see an extremely flustered Hermione, red cheeked Ron and an uncomfortably Harry. She smiled as she saw his green eyes sine with happiness at seeing her finally awake.
"What happened?" Ginny asked to no one in particular but it was Dean who answered.
"You collapsed in the unused corridor. It was a good thing Harry had found you and taken you here, otherwise you could have been big trouble," Dean sighed as he gave her a loving look.
Just then Madam Pompfery dashed into the room and scrabbled to Ginny's bed after hearing their voices. She dismissed Hermione, Ron and Harry and told them to go back to their dorm while Dean waited outside the Hospital doors.
"Well, Miss Weasley, it looks as though you collapsed from exhaustion but as you have been asleep for just over 5hours, I think I can discharge you from the wing and just hope that you get enough sleep." Madam Prompfery smiled, although disapprovingly at Ginny who nodded and mumbled thanks as she left her bed.
Just as she was seeing herself out the door, it burst open to reveal a shocked Professor McGonagall and an edgy looking Dumbledore carrying a heavy looking stretcher, occupied by a young boy.
Ginny recognised the small child immediately as John Williams, the first year Hufflepuff. She began to get very scared as she saw McGonagall and Dumbledore lower the eleven year old boy onto the hospital bed. He was pale and blue. His school robes soaked and his dark hair mattered with water weeds and sand. His eyes were closed but he was alive as Ginny saw his chest slowly rise and fall with each breathe he took.
Madam Pompfery raced over as soon as he was laid onto the bed.
"What on earth happened?" she exclaimed, looking at the body on the hospital bed.
"One of his friends found him lying in the lake, he called us and we took him here immediately," McGonagall explained in a massive rush.
"I believe this was no accident, no one would be pushed that far into the lake. He was attacked," Dumbledore said, looking despaired.
Madam Pompfery gasped at his words. Ginny slowly backed away from the scene and ran out of the door. Rushing past Dean, she sprinted straight to her dorm, locking herself in as she sank to the floor.
"It can't be!" She thought as she recollected her dream from earlier and the way the necklace had changed. She hadn't realised it but, the necklace still swung neatly around her neck. It had changed back to the blue that it was before. Ginny was frightened.
