A Harry Potter Fanfiction~Falling For The Boy Who Lived.

Chapter Seven~My Saviour.

"Savannah? Savannah! Come on! Wake up, please! Please don't be dead!" I heard a distant voice call out. I squinted my eyes open and saw a blurred outline of Harry. "Harry? Is that you?" I asked weakly. I felt him grab my hand. "Yes. I'm here." He answered. I looked around, there was no sign of Tom. "But I don't understand, how did you discover me down here?" I wondered with great curiosity. "The diary. I wrote in it. I saw Tom Riddle. He blamed Hagrid for the opening of the chamber the first time. I didn't believe him. However, that afternoon while visiting Hermione I noticed that before she was petrified, she did some research. She discovered about the baslisks and that it must be in the pipes. I remembered that Myrtle died when it was first opened, I spoke to her  with Ron and Lockhart was is actually a fraud all along and was planning to escape rather than trying to find you, there we found the entrance in the bathroom, and well, here I am." He explained. I  was amazed. "Wait, but Tom... where is he?" I questioned him. He held the diary in his hand, a huge hole was now through the middle and he pointed to the now deceased Baslisk and the fang next to him. "I had an argument with him. Discovered he was Voldemort's younger self. He set the Baslisk o me, but only he could control it. Fawkes, Dumbledore's phoenix swooped in, blinded the Baslisk and dropped the sorting hat beside me. I drew the sword of Gryffindor out of it and stabbed its mouth with it. Tom was furious. I nearly died, I had Baslisk venom in my arm from my cut on my arm. I then destroyed the diary with the fang and it was all over. He just disappeared." He said. I was speechless. I felt grateful more than anything else. He helped me up and we started to walk back where Fawkes appeared with Ron holding its feet with Lockhart, who had gone loopy due to a backfired memory charm. "Hold on to me Harry, Savannah hold onto him, Fawkes will get us out of here." He smiled. We obeyed. Phoenixes are incredible birds, relied filled me as we soared up into the air and into Myrtle's bathroom. Ron helped his to the hospital wing.

"Savannah? You've been found? But how? Oh never mind, lie down at once, you too Mr Potter, that arm needs seeing to, even if Fawkes has healed most of it." Madam Pomfrey fussed. I lay on the bed and she gave me some medicine for the shock and healed my wounds up with magic. Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall shortly came in and we explained everything. "Poppy, can I steal Ron and Harry from you? They seem healed enough." Dumbledore wondered. Madam Pomfrey sighed buy nodded in agreement before attending to me again. "Your friend Hermione should be up and about soon, the mandrake potion is a day from being completed." She reassured me when she noticed me looking at her. I started to cry. "Sorry, it's all my fault. I didn't mean for anyone to get hurt." I sobbed. She held my hand and smiled endearingly. "It was diary's fault sweetheart." She stated. I sighed.

Seamus and Neville and Luna bursted through the doors and towards me. "We just heard what happened, are you okay?" Seamus demanded, his voice breaking a little with sadness. I nodded and yawned out of exhaustion. "When I heard you that you were in the chamber, I felt sick. I thought that I was going to lose you. I could never bare a life without my slightly bonkrers twin sister." Neville cried. "Well I'm still here." I whispered softly. Neville held my hand. Luna simply beamed at me. Seamus and Luna after an hour and Ginny came in and sat next to Neville. "It's my fault you got that diary, I'm so, so sorry Savannah." She apologised. I shook my head. I didn't feel angry at her at all. "Don't be. I'm glad you weren't hurt. Whoever snuck that diary into your possession is mostly to blame." I admitted. She hugged me and left my side. I stayed in hospital just a day after Madam Pomfrey gave me 24 hours sleeping and relaxation potion. I was rather pleased to wake up to the sight of Hermione sitting beside me. "Hey stranger. Coming to the feast to surprise everyone?" She inquired cheerfully. I nodded before hugging her very tightly, feeling happy that I had my best friend back and healthy. "So Professor Lockhart was fraud huh? He's in St Mungo's. He stole Ron's broken wand out of stupidity and performed a memory charm. He's very confused, he doesn't know who he is. You were right about him being a prat ." She informed me on the way to the hall. I laughed. As soon as we entered the room, Harry and Ron charged towards us and hugged us tightly. Luna, Neville and Seamus also greeted me. I felt happy again.
