Tom Riddle's Daughter 2 (DARKNESS IS INSIDE ME) [Editing]

YEAR III: CHAPTER 15

[Y/n's P.o.V]

Just as the situation couldn't even get more tiring, Professor Snape showed up. I groaned and rolled my eyes. Every time I'd get into trouble it always included them and Professor Snape. I was scared too, but I just wondered why.

 I slowly hid behind Harry so that Professor Snape couldn't see me. I would never hear the end of it when I got home which is his home, but it was too late he already saw me. He looked at me in a 'what are you doing here' way even though it was the same face I knew what it meant. 

"After you," Snape motioned for us to go, but it didn't quite turn out the way he expected. Harry instead pointed the wand at him "Expelliarmus!" 

My eyes widen at what he did as Snape was thrown to the bed. 

"Harry! What did you just do?" Ron exclaimed. 

"You attacked a teacher!" I shout but he ignored what we said and pointed the wand at them. 

They talked about someone called Peter Pettigrew who was dead but wasn't they also talked about the map. How could they know if it lies or not? 

"Pettigrew's alive! And he's right there!" He pointed at Ron. 

Ron's eyes shot wide open"Me?! He's mental!" He said. Ron? How could Ron be- 

"Not you! Your rat!" He said pointing at Scabbers.

What? 

Ron's rat has been with him for twelve years. Now, I was curious if what they were saying was true. My eyes turned white as I listened. "

Show me," Harry said. I know he was still processing everything and wanted him to take it slow but he insisted. 

Sirius took Scabbers away from Ron, he let that Rat down as they tried to catch him with a spell and just as it was about to escape, the Rat Ron held and took care of turned into Peter Pettigrew. 

He was an old petite man, in a black suit with long nails and he was much more creepy than Sirius. All of us were shock at what happened. I breathed heavily as I loosen my grip on my wand. He was familiar. My eyes widened as I remember a rat at one of my encounters with my Father in my mind. Was it all real then?

"You sold James and Lily to Voldemort, didn't you!" Lupin questioned as the two friends pointed their wand at the old Rat. 

"I didn't mean to!" He cried out. 

"The Dark Lord. You have no idea the weapons he possesses! Ask yourself, Sirius!" He pointed at him and said "What would you have done? What would you have done?" 

"I would have died!" He honestly answered as Peter went under the piano trying to find ways to escape. "I would have died, rather than betray my friends!" He shouted. 

Then it hit me I would do the same thing too, but a part of me didn't want to and that's just something I couldn't figure out. 

Peter whispered some things to Harry. Peter and Lupin pulled him away. Hermione and I exchanged looks. 

"You should've realized, Peter, that if Voldemort didn't kill you, then we would! Together!" Professor Lupin shouted as they both point their wands at them. 

"No!" Harry protested. 

"Harry, this man..." but before even Professor Lupin could finish his sentence Harry cut him off.

"I know what he is. But we'll take him to the castle" He walked up to them as Peter kneeled and praised him, "Bless you, boy! Bless you!" 

Harry took a step back, "Get off! I said we'd take you to the castle. After that, the dementors can have you,"

I help Hermione up as we got outside. Finally! It was over or so I thought. We all look over at Ron's leg as the wind blows by. 

"You better go," Ron said to Harry who was staring at the familiar man, Sirius. I gave Harry an assuring look. 

"You go, we'll both stay," I say. He nodded and left us there. 

"That looks really painful," Hermione said when she examined the wound.

"So painful. They might chop it," He whispered.

"I'm sure Madam Pomfrey will fix it in a heartbeat," Hermione assured him.

"It's too late. It's ruined. It'll have to be chopped off," He insisted. 

"If you want I'll chop it off," I looked at him like I was serious. 

"Very funny, Y/n," He said sneering a bit, but Hermione and I both ended up chuckling. I rip off a part of my shirt and gave it to Hermione so she could wrap it around Ron's leg. 

"Crazy of what just happened, huh?" I say they both agreed. 

"I just hope he took it well," Hermione said. I nodded in agreement. 

"I still can't believe Scabbers wasn't a rat.. well he is one, it's just that he's a person," He tried to explain. 

"We get it, Ron," I patted his back as Hermione aided him. 

Finally, it's all over now. My head's been hurting since we got there. I've been hearing voices as well I just ignored it, but something was trying to get to me. I just don't know what.
