AN: I am not completely happy with this chapter but there are enough people following this fic that I decided that I would give it to you anyway.
It should be known that if it were not for Athina Dark-Angel of Death then you would not be reading this chapter anytime soon. In fact, until I received her review I was unaware that I had yet to post this chapter or the 3rd chapter which I have written half of.
For that, I have decided to dedicate this chapter to Athina Dark-Angel of Death.
Disclaimer: all I own is this account, the title of my fic, and the plot of this story.
Chapter 2:
I sat up with a gasp and started hyperventilating.
Drawing my knees up to my chest I curled into a ball and rocked back and forth sobbing.
A nightmare.
I miss the days when my dreams consisted of basilisks, giant spiders, werewolves, and Dementors. Now, my dreams contain MUCH worse things. I see Voldemort torturing and killing innocents, Cedric's death, he and my parents accusing me of having killed them… their cold piercing eyes boring relentlessly into me, sneers of disgust etched on their faces.
And the nightmare that plagued me tonight.
I was coming back from a detention with Umbridge when it happened.
"STUPIFY!"
I whipped around to see where the curse was coming from and was hit full on, sending me crashing to the ground.
"Nice one Malfoy!" a voice said.
My stomach sank.
C'mon let's go.
I sighed with relief. They weren't going to keep attacking me.
How wrong I was.
Two shadows loomed over me, Crabbe and Goyle.
They each grabbed one of my legs and turning around started walking. After a few steps though, Crabbe reached over to grab my other leg from Goyle and dragged me himself.
I winced as my head was dragged along the rough stone floor.
I was pulled into a room near the entrance to the Slytherin dorms. And Goyle picked me up.
I was held two inches off the ground staring straight at Malfoy, Crabbe, Parkinson, and Nott.
Uh oh…
"Accio Potter's wand!"
"Nott, ward the room. We wouldn't want anybody to hear, now would we?"
Then he turned to smirk at me.
"Pansy, be a dear and fetch the faithful, will you."
"Of course!" and with a giggle she left.
Malfoy held my wand at eye level.
"A fine wand. Too bad."
And before my eyes, my wand was snapped in half.
Something seemed to die inside me.
Malfoy stepped over to me and punched me in the face, breaking my nose.
"Accio!"
I was dumped in a chair and bound by an "Incarcerous!"
Pansy re-entered the room leading a group of roughly fifteen students.
Then my world becomes a fury of light and pain, as a multitude of spells collided with me.
From somewhere off to my left I hear Madame Pomfry's muffled voice saying, "I'm afraid that there is nothing more I can do."
Ron saying, "YOU'RE A FREAK! A MONSTER! GET AWAY FROM ME!"
Even Hermione "You're REVOLTING! Take one step closer Freak and I'll scream!"
Being bullied in the halls.
Going to my dorm to change my robes, now stained by the food and ink students threw at me, only to find my dorm mates burning everything I owned.
Finding Hedwig missing from the owlery and knowing that I would never see her again.
Slowly I stopped crying. I put on my glasses and looked at the clock to find that it was only three o'clock.
With a sigh I got up, wiping my eyes as I trudged to the bathroom. Sparing my contacts a glance I knew I wouldn't be using them today. Crying had irritated my eyes and wearing contacts would only make the irritation worse at this point.
Fifteen minutes later, I got out of the shower and putting on a bathrobe, walked into my room where I picked out my clothes for the day.
I don't have very many clothes, all the ones I previously owned had been burned. Therefore, all I had left were my ink stained school robes, and the few outfits Sirius and I had bought on the way to the airport.
I pulled on a white t-shirt with England written across the front, and some strait leg cargo pants. I went back to the bathroom to brush out my shoulder length red hair.
Then, writing a note to Sirius informing him I was going for a walk and leaving it on the table, I put on my flip flops and went into the kitchen. I dropped the note on the table and grabbed a quart carton of milk out of the fridge, before walking out the door.
After a few minutes, I arrived at a clearing in the woods I had noticed yesterday near the Sohmas' house. I set my milk carton down and started stretching. After 15 minutes I sat cross-legged on the ground and started drinking the milk. Mmmm.
I managed to fall back asleep. Go figure.
=^o.o^= Kyo's point of view =^o.o^=
*Yawn*
I wake up and look at my watch. It is 6:00. Good, enough time to get some practice in before they drag me shopping for school stuff.
I open my window and climb down the side of the house. Then I make my way over to the clearing. I stopped in my tracks. There was someone there. He was laying in the grass, an empty milk carton next to him.
I was startled to realize that this was the guy from last night. What was his name? …eh, it'll come to me.
Back to the problem at hand, I want to use the clearing and I can't very well do that with him lying in the middle of it. Whatever his name is, he is going to move.
Drawing closer, I gave him a poke.
He moved but stayed asleep.
I shoved him and said "Wake Up!"
He jumped to his feet, knees bent in a defensive stance, eyes wide and alert.
"Whoa!" I said, raising my hands to show I meant no harm. I hadn't expected that!
He glared at me then said, "That is the first peaceful sleep I've had in MONTHS! Why'd you have to go ruin it!"
"This is where I come to train."
"Well, I was here first!" I then watched as the brat crossed his arms and swung himself around so his back faced me.
I grit my teeth "Unless you want to be kicked and trampled, you should move."
"Hmph!" the boy showed no signs that he was going to move anytime soon.
I sighed. Having made up my mind, I bent over and grabbing him by the waist, I got ready to hoist him up over my shoulder. Instead, unprepared for how light the boy was, I stumbled back for a moment. Then, before he could realize what I was about to do, I regained my balance and walked across the clearing placing him on the edge of the clearing where he wouldn't get hurt.
"Hey! What was that for! You can't just go around randomly picking people up because they are smaller than you!" he shouted fists clenched.
I looked at him and smirked, "Well, you have no room to talk, technically you shouldn't be on Sohma privet property anyway."
His eyes grew huge. Satisfied, I turned around and sprinted to the middle of the clearing to start my katas.
I felt his stare all through my workout, he is so annoying! He's as annoying as Hiro and that is no small feat! I see him moving towards me out of the corner of my eye and turn to glare at him. Undeterred, he keeps walking coming to a stop just a few feet away from me.
I finish the kata and rub my head trying to get rid of the headache I knew was coming. I watched impatiently as he opened his mouth as if to speak before closing it again and starting to walk away.
I growl. Before I realize what I'm doing, I find myself infront of him arms crossed saying "Well what was it you wanted?"
He bit his lip for a moment before looking up and asking resignedly, "Do you think I could borrow a phone?"
"Fine," I say, resigned to the fact that I wouldn't have any peace until this kid left. "I don't have a cell so we need to go back to the house."
He shrugged, "Okay."
